One of the most interesting things about Hyper Scape in the leadup to its full launch yesterday was how Ubisoft hyped up the narrative aspect of the game. More than most battle royale games, Hyper Scape seems to be setting up a deeper story about the digital world players fight it out in, one full of darker secrets than anyone realizes. Now that Season 1 is underway, players can start digging up pieces of that story while they play through the Memory Shards....
In a world where just about every popular video game series is receiving either a television show or a movie adaptation, it’s certainly not out of the realm of possibility that we’ll see a Metroid movie in the future. If and when that does happen, Captain Marvel star Brie Larson really wants to play the role of Samus. The original Metroid became a pop culture phenomenon back in the late 80s largely for revealing at the very end that its badass missile-launching bounty hunter hero was a woman....
Gears 5 Xbox One controllers have leaked on social media to an icy reception. And we mean icy because they look cold, not because people didn’t like ‘em. Anyway. Most people are probably going to play Gears 5 with their regular Xbox One controller, but superfans will want the full experience. And that experience can only come from having a branded controller between your mitts. Or maybe you just need a new controller and you really like the Gears of War franchise....
Slated to release in just two days’ time, Immortals Fenyx Rising looks to be yet another huge game coming from the team over at Ubisoft this year, joining last month’s Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and October’s Watch Dogs: Legion.

Warning: contains spoilers for Inside No. 9 series 6 episode 2. The online petition to ‘Remake Game of Thrones Season 8 with competent writers’ currently has over 1.8 million signatures. Despite the series having ended two years ago and HBO politely declining the opportunity to bin its $100m first attempt and have another go, people continue to add their names.

Grand Theft Auto V featured a couple of references to Red Dead Redemption back in its day, though since then, a sequel to the latter game has been released. With it came a strong narrative about an outlaw experiencing a redemption of some kind. It was serious and very impactful. Yet, with Grand Theft Auto 6 apparently on the way, we should see a strong tie between the two franchises....
For most fans, the Guardians of the Galaxy consist of five to eight members. There’s the main team of Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, and Groot, and sometimes Yondu, Nebula, and Mantis. But comic fans have been waiting for another player to be added to the team, one who has been teased in both of the Guardians movies. Cosmo the Spacedog was seen briefly in the Collector’s cell in the first movie before joining Howard the Duck for the post-credit sequence....
The open beta for Call of Duty: WW2 has only been live for a few days, but honest gamers are already finding not everyone logged in wants to play a fair game. A recent thread on Reddit discussing the issue of hackers in the Call of Duty: WW2 beta has attracted hundreds of comments, with many gamers lamenting how quickly cheaters were able to become such a widespread issue.

It’s only been a few days, but Half-Life: Alyx has already been given an update that makes turning a whole lot easier.

The problem is that the player wants to walk for miles in a post-apocalyptic city–much like in Half-Life: Alyx–but said player really only has a space as large as their living room to move inside....
As gamers are well aware, it’s important to see developers striving to make their games look as beautiful as possible on current generation hardware. While that certainly isn’t the case for all titles that aim for artistic or gameplay-centric goals in lieu of raw graphics, impressive looking content is the meat and potatoes that accompanies the appeal of upgrading from past-gen platforms to general consumers. Evidently, 343 Industries is striving for that fidelity in its blockbuster, Halo 5: Guardians....
