Confirmed via a recent trailer on Ubisoft’s YouTube channel, it has been revealed that Hyper Scape will officially be making its way to consoles on August 11. The new battle royale game will mark Ubisoft’s first venture into the popular multiplayer genre and this new promotional video makes it pretty clear that the publisher is not holding anything back. Like many popular battle royales, the trailer confirms that Hyper Scape will be structured into seasons, with August 11 seeing the premiere of season 1....

I’m doing the journalist stereotype a disservice when I say that Returnal is thoroughly kicking my ass. It took a staggering four hours to muster up the “skill” to take down that first boss, and a lot of that time was spent adjusting to the bullet-hell format in 3D given that, unlike throughout the rest of the genre, you can’t always see what’s incoming. It’s a toughie to get into, and there’s a lot of learning to be had, but that’s what’s so enticing....

The weird time between finishing off games from 2014 and anticipating upcoming 2015 releases is here, and that time is probably better known as awards season. We’ve shared our own list of games that we felt flew under the radar amid all the hubbub of AAA releases, but now it’s time for the International Games Festival 2015 to offer the spotlight to the smaller, weirder indie games that made their mark last year....

You might be surprised such a world exists. Pokémon is, traditionally, a game for children, and thus painting over these cards with such unwholesome images seems a little beyond the norms of human decency. In order to understand this world, one must first understand that Pokémon has been around for decades and the Pokémon TCG for about as long. Kids that grew up playing Pokémon are now adults, and printer technology has gotten to the point that anyone with enough money can just make their own adult versions of Pokémon cards from the comfort of their own homes....

Insomniac Games surprised gamers worldwide last year when they revealed a partnership with Microsoft to bring Sunset Overdrive exclusively to the Xbox One, making it the first title since the studio’s creation in 1996 that a game hasn’t appeared on the PlayStation platform. Bringing its love of crazy weapons, factions and plot to the table with a brand new IP was certainly a major coup for Microsoft, but many Sony fans weren’t too happy with the developer’s decision to bat for the other team....

While being able to play with friends on other platforms through cross-play in Call of Duty: Warzone is undeniably beneficial, it has brought about some noteworthy problems as well. As shown in a recent video from YouTuber JackFrags, PC users have a major advantage over Call of Duty: Warzone fans on console. JackFrags’ video focuses on two specific problems caused by cross-play, and neither of the highlighted issues are tied to Call of Duty: Warzone’s cheating problem....

With Rockstar Games keeping quiet about the inevitable Grand Theft Auto 6, fans have been scouring Grand Theft Auto 5 for any possible clues about when the next game in the critically-acclaimed series will launch. The latest theory claims that the Grand Theft Auto 6 release date has been in GTA 5 since the game’s launch back in 2013, and while that seems unlikely, the evidence is still somewhat compelling....

Félix Lengyel is a personality known for causing more than the occasional rift. The Canadian was fined and suspended multiple times during a stint within the Overwatch League for unsettling behavior, ranging from homophobic remarks to the usage of emotes in what Blizzard noted as a “racially disparaging manner.” Recently, Twitch suspended xQc for stream sniping a rival in a Fall Guys tournament, resulting in the sniped player dropping out of the contest early....

Zach Cregger’s Barbarian is one of the surprise horror hits of the year. Combining wicked twists, an unorthodox structure, and a dash of good humor (Cregger’s background with the sketch comedy troupe, The Whitest Kids U’Know, certainly helped in that avenue), Barbarian became a word-of-mouth hit that’s now finding an even wider audience thanks to streaming on HBO Max. Fun, but still unsettling at times, Barbarian strikes a campy horror tone that’s both refreshingly irreverent and also cinematically satisfying....

The city of Los Santos in Grand Theft Auto Online has seen its fair share of weird occurrences. Just last month, the streets of Los Santos were filled with in-game characters taking the hallucinatory drug, peyote, which turns players into a random animals. Now, a new danger has hit Los Santos in the form of dangerous alien gangs. A wave of clips that have gone viral depict green aliens getting out of vans and beating players with baseball bats....

GTA Online players have finally been given a reason to own a superyacht via the game’s new superyacht missions, but it’s still not really worth it. Grand Theft Auto V remains popular seven years after it was first released and is the third best-selling game of all time for a number of reasons. However, reason number one is its online element. GTA Online is a game within itself at this point and may have even replaced the need for Rockstar to create a new GTA game from scratch ever again....

Since Halo Infinite’s reveal at E3 2018, fans have been excitedly speculating about what the next entry in the mega-popular first-person shooter franchise will bring. While 343 Industries has confirmed only a few details about the new title, a recent job posting is certain to keep the rumor mill turning with a suggestion that Halo Infinite may include RPG elements. As per the job posting, 343 is hiring a Senior Systems Designer to work on Halo Infinite....

It’s true that most of the Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery experience boils down to tapping on energy meters, but there’s also some combat in the game as well. Dueling is a fairly major part of Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, and while it’s mostly straightforward, there is one boss fight that appears to be giving some players trouble. Please note that this article will have some spoilers for Year 2 of the game....

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery has a dueling system that plays out like a game of rock, paper, scissors. Aggressive stances beat Sneaky stances, Sneaky stances beat Defensive stances, and Defensive stances between Aggressive stances. Despite this, there is still a bit of strategy that will help players perform better in duels. In Year 4 Chapter 6 of Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, players encounter a centaur named Torvus while exploring the Forbidden Forest....

Ninja Theory is using Unreal Engine 5 to develop Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2, Xbox confirms. The Unreal Engine 5 game engine, made by Epic Games, was the technology shown in the very first PS5 gameplay demo that released last month. In a new post on the Xbox Wire detailing “everything” gamers need to know about the Xbox Series X, Xbox confirmed that PC and Xbox Series X game Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 is using Unreal Engine 5....

Ever since the announcement that Blizzard would be pulling developers to work on new projects, Heroes of the Storm fans have been rightfully worried about the future of the MOBA. Now it seems the developer might be trying to garner some goodwill with its base by adding a new character to its roster, Mei from Overwatch. Heroes of the Storm is a MOBA by Blizzard that features a roster of characters from across its various franchises....

Dalgona - this game involves carving out the shapes within the time limit using the 3D motion tracking on your visor. Tug of War - this one will see you coordinate with your team mates to win. Marbles - for this you’ll use the touch screens to launch marbles at the center screen to pass to the next level....

Thanks to some recent developer live streams from Bioware, prospective Anthem fans now have a better idea as to how Bioware is handling the loot system in the upcoming sci-fi looter-shooter. Anthem will feature several different rarities for gear, and players can seek out certain activities and difficulties if they want to better their chances at increasing their gear score. It seems that Anthem’s gear system will feature a few different rarities for players to chase after: Common (White), Uncommon (Green), Rare (Blue), Epic (Purple), Masterwork (Orange), and Legendary (Yellow)....
