The video starts off in a very Young Anakin from Star Wars way, but it ends in traditional Starcraft fashion - the Zerg are coming, and unprotected remote colonies are always the first to suffer. Freddie Wong’s latest film, entitled The Rush, shows a rare glimpse of the civilian life within the Starcraft Universe. It’s only a four minute short, but it should leave fans of the game with a good impression: it’s well filmed, the visual effects are stunning, and the ending goes to a brutal place many videogames are still afraid to go....

[UPDATE: Take-Two has issued a statement that these figures are involved with third-party partners only, undermining the potential for it to be about GTA 6 since Rockstar Games is an internal studio. Original story follows.] Not too long ago, a Grand Theft Auto 6 report surfaced that fractured the fan community. It detail how the game would, reportedly, be smaller than its predecessors and expanded over time, as well as how the game was still in early development....

Waiting for Grand Theft Auto 6 news is a patient affair. The last and most popular entry in the series, Grand Theft Auto 5, has been out for almost seven years now, not counting any re-releases. Now fans know that before they’ll get a taste of the next entry in the franchise, the San Andreas playground will be coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X next year. While Grand Theft Auto 5 will be San Andreas’ swan song for a while, fans are still wondering where the next Grand Theft Auto will take place....

Out of the eight total skills you possess in Grand Theft Auto Online, strength is quite possibly the most important one and one of the most difficult to raise. It causes you to climb faster, able to receive more damage which happens quite frequently. Melee weapons like bats and knives will become even more deadly with a higher strength skill and you’ll be able to jump off of taller structures and not worry about seeing 75 percent of your health bar depleted....

Grand Theft Auto Online, the multiplayer component of Grand Theft Auto 5, continues to be regularly updated with modes such as Stockpile and Bombushka Run being added in recent weeks. However, this update schedule may slow down soon, says Rockstar Games. During a recent interview, Rockstar’s director of design, Imran Sarwar, explains that the rollout of GTA Online updates “may change a little in order to encourage players to try Red Dead Redemption 2 when it launches....

The early access version of Hades was packed with so much content that, in many ways, it felt odd that the game hadn’t been fully released until just recently. There were hours and hours of content in the game, plenty of weapons, customization options, unlocks, and just about everything else you’d want from a highly polished rogue-like game. The only real notable exception was a true ending. Now, with an official 1....

Few franchises have seen as radical of a design shift as Halo. Once a renowned video game franchise that shifted the gaming landscape with its innovations, many now see it as just another sci-fi FPS title. With a new Halo game around the corner, 343 Industries are at an impasse. Halo 4 and 5 are fundamentally different games than Bungie’s titles, resulting in two distinct fanbases in the Halo community. 343 seems more focused on bringing Halo back to its roots with Halo: Infinite, but many old and new mechanics must be added for the game to succeed in making everyone happy....

It’s confirmed that Halo Infinite will be launching alongside the long-awaited Xbox Series X. You might be lost in Halo’s convoluted story. Regardless, players can hop into multiplayer action without needing to play all the Halo games. Halo multiplayer maps are among the most iconic in video games. There are over one-hundred Halo maps and counting since Halo: Combat Evolved. Arguably, the earlier games spawned Halo’s most memorable levels. Still, with recent maps like Exile, 343 Industries has proven know-how for creating maps we like....

It has been a few days since Microsoft’s big Xbox Games Showcase and the information is still coming in by the hour, and the game dominating the news cycle is unsurprisingly Halo Infinite which had its gameplay debut at the show. The next piece of Halo info that has fans buzzing focuses on just how big Halo Infinite is going to be. Speaking to IGN, 343 Industries developers Chris Lee and Paul Crocker provided new information for Halo’s jump into the ninth generation of consoles....

The elusive Akavir is an island beyond the mudcrab infested beaches of Tamriel, home to the conniving Tsaesci, a warrior race of vampiric serpent-like humanoids. They’ve intersected on more than one occasion, with the Tsaesci’s time spent in the unfamiliar lands lending itself to the formation of the Blades, with their unique eastern style bleeding into the very motif of the weapons and armor the dragon-slayers adorn. Long has Akavir been referenced but left unseen....

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery fans can’t complete Year 3 yet, but they’re getting closer to the end. Developers Jam City seems to be averaging about one new story chapter per week, with even more story content recently added to the successful mobile game. As of the latest update, Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery players are able to progress all the way to Year 3 Chapter 11. This means that they still can’t quite complete Year 3, but they should be able to do just that and move on to Year 4 by the end of the month....

After a very busy week, players should be getting close to finishing up the tasks and rewards available throughout the first week of September’s Brilliant Event. Although the Battle of the Department of Mysteries Brilliant Event had to be delayed long enough to push out the latest Harry Potter Wizards Unite update, the event did fire off without any problems and it is now almost time to transition into week 2 and wrap things up....

The Last of Us fans are eagerly waiting to see if the upcoming HBO series can live up to the beloved games they’re based on. For what it’s worth, everything I’ve seen of the show so far suggests it’s heading in the right direction. At the very least, significant parts of the show look like they were pulled directly from the games with very few changes. That includes the series’ two main characters, Joel and Ellie....

Mortal Kombat X may be one of the most popular games of the year but it has also proved to be one of the most divisive. The new fighting game from NetherRealm Studios and Warner Bros. Interactive has caused controversy with its multiplayer region locking, the bugs and glitches in the PC version of the game and the decision to include ’easy’ fatalities. Easy fatalities are a shortcut to performing the over the top finishing moves that the Mortal Kombat games are known for However, while some easy fatality tokens are free, additional tokens can be purchased with microtransactions ($0....

After a successful 2020 for the Hi-Rez Studios’ free-to-play titles, these 2021 plans hope to keep players engaged with new content, seasonal updates, fresh maps, features, and more.

Hideo Kojima is considered to be one of gaming’s most creative minds. Throughout his storied career, Kojima has made incredible gameplay experiences. Gameplay aside, many have enjoyed Kojima’s creations for their over the top and powerful stories. The narratives are often based on the realities of historical and current issues, like Metal Gear Solid 3 and the Cold War. On top of historical fiction works, some wonder if the developer is a prophet....

While The Last Guardian, Shenmue III, and the long awaited Final Fantasy VII remake has people excited, another new IP from a well known studio also had the industry buzzing. Another major surprise came early on in the press conference as Guerrilla Games introduced the world to Horizon: Zero Dawn, a big departure from the studio’s previous work with the Killzone franchise....

This Shadow and Bone articles contains major spoilers. The Grishaverse books series on which Netflix’s Shadow and Bone is based are wildly popular, which means many viewers heading into a binge-watch of the epic fantasy series already know some of the biggest plot twists coming their way. But not all viewers. It might not be hard to guess that a character who can manipulate shadow is a bad guy, but Ben Barnes is so god damn charming that some may be surprised by the mid-season reveal that General Kirigan, aka the Darkling, is actually the Black Heretic....

Final Fantasy 16, which was announced back in September, is set to be the next mainline entry in the long-running JRPG series.
