Halo: Combat Evolved is one of the most iconic games ever made. Although it wasn’t the first FPS, it became a new standard for the genre. Halo would ignite a franchise that is still going to this day. The first game was remade in 2011 as Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary. This title was an Xbox 360 exclusive, until recently. As part of The Master Chief Collection on Steam, Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary is now available on PC....

Jam City recently added both Year 5 Chapter 3 and Year 5 Chapter 4 to Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, but that’s not the only new content that’s made its way to the game. Additionally, the developer has also kicked off a new in-game event that gives players the opportunity to unlock an exclusive spider pet. The new event in Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery is another House Pride event, meaning players have to earn house points instead of stars like in the game’s other events....
Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is just about ready to roll out its September Brilliant Event after a slight delay earlier this month. The mobile AR experience released a surprise Dragon Week event to help fill the gap before the bigger event could kick off, but now things are just about ready. The mobile AR game is playing it safe and continues to optimize all ongoing events for at home play, which means that players should be able to complete the upcoming weeklong event without interacting with other players face-to-face if they don’t want to....
Yesterday’s UI stream gave us a good look at the PS5’s menus and UI’s, but the narration and music made it difficult to hear what the menu would sound like. Now that we’ve got a few un-produced videos of the PS5 in action, we’ve got a much better idea of what to expect when the PS5 releases in November. While the PS5’s UI has been completely rebuilt to offer brand new features, it will at least sound pretty familiar to PS4 owners....

While it had a notoriously bad launch, Final Fantasy 14 has been one of the most popular MMORPGs in the world since its 2013 reboot. The game has remained popular on PC and PS4 thanks to consistent support from Square Enix, but strangely has never made its way to the Xbox One. Now we have a better idea as to why Final Fantasy 14 isn’t on Xbox One, despite Square Enix bringing most of its other games to the platform....
Ash has a habit of encountering the most popular of Pokemon, going on adventures with them, and then disappointing everyone watching by never following through with catching them – the most basic element of the Pokemon franchise. However, Season 23 of the Pokemon anime has been doing wonders with Ash as a trainer by actually allowing him to catch popular Pokemon from all sorts of generations, which is precisely why the Pokemon Riolu is trending....
Mafia 3 was met with mixed reviews when it launched in 2016, but the game has proven to be a major hit for 2K Games, shipping 4.5 million units in its first week on sale alone. Judging by these sales numbers and the praise given to its story and characters, it’s clear that studio Hangar 13 has potential to create something special with its next project. As it so happens, the studio has hired some big name talent this past year to achieve just that, including Horizon: Zero Dawn lead quest designer David Ford....
Following Update 1.13’s addition of background music support for Horizon: Zero Dawn, the developers at Guerrilla Games have been hard at work continuing to improve the open world action-adventure game, and the studio has now provided details for the title’s next patch. Although it wasn’t revealed exactly when fans should expect to receive the forthcoming patch, Update 1.20 is slated to provide enhancements to the game’s Photo Mode sometime next week alongside fixes to progression and technical issues, as well as other new features....
Horizon Forbidden West is the upcoming sequel to Guerilla Games’ Horizon Zero Dawn, a PlayStation exclusive that came out in 2017. The first Horizon game was a tremendous surprise for many, and that’s saying it in a good way. The game had incredible world-building, it had a fantastic and engaging story, and the gameplay isn’t too shabby either. The sequel for Horizon Zero Dawn was officially announced during a PlayStation showcase....
The Others, the 2001 period horror film starring Nicole Kidman, is going to be remade. According to Deadline, Los Angeles production company Sentient Entertainment has won the rights to mount a new version of the film, which will mark its 20th anniversary next year. The original, directed by Alejandro Amenabar (whose latest film, While at War, premiered at last year’s Toronto Film Festival), featured Kidman as Grace, a young mother who shelters herself and her two children at a remote, isolated mansion on the British island of Jersey during World War II....
There are likely a plethora of fans of high-profile developers like FromSoftware who want more original works rather than seeing the writers, programmers, and artists to retread old ground. However, the massive success of Bloodborne, along with the receptions to sequels like the relatively underwhelming Dark Souls 2, is one of the clearest examples that this fan request is best for developers as well. Even stronger games that were sequels, like Dark Souls 3, still fell slightly short critically for the way that it built so much of itself off of the original Dark Souls as opposed to breaking out its own identity on its own....
Sony made a critical mistake for the PS3 back in 2006, unveiling a price exorbitantly higher than its competition. The console’s price point, coupled with several other issues with the console’s infrastructure, helped contribute to Xbox 360’s rise to fame. The PS3 then spent practically the rest of the generation playing catch up, and did eventually come up to par with the Xbox 360 several years later. Sony then countered the balance with PS4, and has seen great success ever since....

Finally debuting its first entry in the battle royale genre on August 11, Hyper Scape is obviously a big deal for Ubisoft who evidently sees the release as a large-scale investment going forward. It’s not hard to understand why either, with titles like Fortnite, Warzone, and Apex Legends all managing to draw in millions of concurrent players, create significant mainstream appeal, and generate a lot of money for their respective publishers....
Immortals Fenyx Rising proved to be a surprising hit with its colorful and fun open world inspired by Greek mythology. A new update released for it recently, setting up the game for an upcoming DLC that will ensure its longevity for some time in 2021. There’s certainly a lot to do in Immortals Fenyx Rising, from the main story to the side quests and objectives. Some of these take the form of vaults that can be completed for treasures and stat increase resources....
Ubisoft’s upcoming open-world action/adventure Immortals Fenyx Rising will have microtransactions but only for cosmetic items that can also be earned by playing the game. Immortals is yet another open-world game from Ubisoft, the publisher of Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, Watch Dogs: Legion, and Assassin’s Creed: Origins, to name a few. But while it fits into the same “Title: Subtitle” naming convention as those other games, Immortals Fenyx Rising stands out from other open-world Ubisoft games in a number of ways....
