The thing about going hardcore vegan in Minecraft is that it sounds a lot tougher than it actually is. I know it might seem a bit odd at first — you can’t eat meat, or use wool, or make leather armor. You can’t even kill the pesky spiders that skulk around your house at night, because technically they’re living creatures, too. Even the zombies and skeletons — though technically undead — are sentient beings, so even if there’s a skull-faced archer lobbing arrows at your head, all you can really do is run away....

Immortals Fenyx Rising is Ubisoft’s latest IP video game. When the game got released, it was immediately received with widespread praise and appreciation. The gameplay was enjoyable, the atmosphere was light, and it was the perfect marriage of Ubisoft’s well-known gameplay mechanics. It also took a fairly fresh artistic direction inspired by popular Nintendo titles. Needless to say, many loved the game. It is considered to be one of 2020’s best surprises....

Earlier this year, it was confirmed that inFamous and Sly Cooper developer Sucker Punch Productions was working on a brand new IP for the PlayStation 4. We haven’t heard much about the project since then, but now there’s official word from Sony that the studio is making good forward progress. Many Sucker Punch fans were concerned about the status of the project, given that there was no sign of it at E3 2017 earlier this month....

While many Destiny fans are undoubtedly hyping themselves up in preparation for Bungie’s forthcoming sequel to the science fiction shooter that’s set to launch later this year, some have decided to be more constructive with the time on their hands by literally singing the original game’s praises through performance. As it so happens, a middle school band recently took the liberty of playing one of the arrangements from the first-person shooter’s original soundtrack, “Cabal Stomp,” during one of its public concerts....

Rumors about Grand Theft Auto 6 have been floating around since last year, when the GTA 6 release date and setting supposedly leaked. There have been plenty of rumors about Grand Theft Auto 6 since then, but few have come from credible sources. However, this latest leak comes from a former Rockstar employee, and while it’s light on details, it does seem to confirm that Grand Theft Auto 6 is in active development....

Grand Theft Auto is one of the biggest franchises in gaming history. It’s constantly changing the landscape of how we, as gamers, expect our open world experiences to be. With free roaming/driving capabilities, interactive NPCs, and more weapons than we could ever imagine, it has created a cult-like following throughout the gaming community and has made for some rather interesting theories along the way. From the somewhat reasonable theories of the Epsilon Program and their ties to a certain popular religious group to the thought provoking relationship of Red Dead’s John Marston and our three protagonists of GTA V, the list goes on and on as fans of series continue to find some sliver of meaning to latch onto, trying to make sense of what is widely regarded as the best chaotic sandbox game to hit home gaming consoles....

CD Projekt Red confirms that a standalone game based on The Witcher 3’s card game is in the works, with Gwent: The Witcher Card Game set for a closed beta test in September.

The developer has confirmed the existence of a standalone game based on the Gwent minigame of The Witcher 3....

“Wake up, Mr. Freeman. Wake up and smell the ashes.” The chills provided not solely in the reappearance of G-Man but also in the mindboggling ending of Half-Life: Alyx is enough to leave fans pleading for more. Thankfully, in its final few minutes of gameplay, Valve’s expertly crafted VR experience ends on a vaguely familiar note, a moment from the Half-Life narrative that clearly has had some “nudging” performed upon it....

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery players have to do a lot of waiting to get to Year 2 in the game, but once they get there, they will find a number of key differences between it and Year 1.

New Locations Perhaps the biggest difference between Year 1 and Year 2 is that players have access to more areas in Hogwarts....

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery has added the Dueling Club event multiple times, but each iteration has been met with harsh criticism from the community. Well, Dueling Club is back in Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, and this version of the event appears to have been better received by fans, as it addresses some of the concerns players have had about the mode. This new version of Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery’s Dueling Club abandons the three ticket system for a two ticket system....

March is here and, just like the Pokemon GO calendar, Harry Potter Wizards Unite players are also in for a very busy month. The first week has been relatively quiet so far, but the excitement starts this week with a casual Spotlight Event that offers some boosted Foundable opportunities during a low stakes celebration. The Boosted Event is considered a bit more casual by fans because it doesn’t come along with a list of timed tasks to power through like just about every other Harry Potter Wizards Unite event at this point....

It’s been a long time coming, but the Microsoft Flight Simulator series is almost back. After announcing things like real-time air traffic and having 37,000 airports, Microsoft is ready to talk about the kind of rig you’ll need to power its long-awaited sequel to this once-proud PC benchmark tool. Surprisingly, the specs aren’t too outrageous. The minimum specs only demand a Radeon RX 570 or NVidia GTX 770 (both fairly old, and cheap, cards)....

Now over a decade old and with a remake on the way, some might assume that Demon’s Souls has given all it can. That’s not entirely the case - as it turns out, the game was originally going to have another area - the snow-coated Northern Limit, complete with a massive, foreboding castle. The archstone in the Nexus that would have led here is broken, but of course, that hasn’t stopped dedicated fans from getting to the area....

This article contains spoilers for High-Rise Invasion season 1. Television currently exists in a place where there’s a constant stream of new shows and it becomes incredibly easy for some series to sink and get lost at sea. This can be even more prevalent when it comes to anime since it’s sometimes quite difficult to determine which series really strive to be innovative and challenging. At first glance, High-Rise Invasion looks like an indulgent excuse for sadistic killers to act out Hostel-like slasher fantasies....

Debuting to a lot of excitement for the franchise’s diehard fanbase, Hitman 3 made a huge splash at the PlayStation 5 reveal event last month, with the game’s cinematic trailer and subsequent gameplay showcase seeing Agent 47 at his very best.
