Pokémon has been around for decades now and has influenced a whole generation of gamers since 1997. Since then, it has continued to enamor younger generations over and again with its unique blend of friendship and enthusiasm. However, there are those who grew up with the series that would love to see the series evolve past the basics of Ash trying to become a master storyline. In a sense, Pokémon’s genre as an anime falls under the Shonen category as it follows the heroic journey of a young boy....

When NetherRealm Studios added Image Comics’ Spawn into Mortal Kombat 11, the developers also introduced an alternate “Hellspawn” skin for Jacqui Briggs. Having a hellish variant of the junior Olympian and Special Forces agent has inspired others, like Reddit user lightsource33, to create more Hellspawn Mortal Kombat characters like Shao Kahn. After lightsource33 posted his Spawn and Shao Khan crossover concept design to the r/MortalKombat subreddit on March 29, it was picked up and reposted to Twitter by the official Mortal Kombat division of the ESL; an organization that hosts esports events....

Activision and Infinity Ward’s Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare and Modern Warfare Remastered will be compatible with Sony’s forthcoming console, PS4 Pro. During Sony Interactive Entertainment’s PlayStation Meeting 2016, executives and representatives for the Japanese multinational conglomerate officially announced the release date and price of its forthcoming 4K-enabled console known as the PS4 Pro. Interestingly enough, during the event, Activision’s Andy Hendrickson also took to the stage to discuss what the publisher’s plans are when it comes to the impending releases of the two highly anticipated first-person shooters Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare and Modern Warfare Remastered, and how the games will operate on the PS4 Pro....

You would think a global pandemic that has stopped us from meeting in person wouldn’t do any favors for the popularity of games such as Dungeons and Dragons. But we must be a dedicated bunch, because tabletop roleplaying games have only seen a growth in popularity, as we take our campaigns to Discord instead. In fact, Hasbro reported a revenue increase of 24% from TTRPGs (courtesy of WSJ), even while the company as a whole was down 8% from 2020 to 2021....

Team Fortress 2 first launched in 2007 and grew to become on of the most popular team shooter games for a PC, and Valve is long overdue a sequel. Diverse Classes, Great Weapons, Endless Fun To say that Team Fortress 2 was popular is a major understatement. Even thirteen years after its release, there have been over 130,000 concurrent players having an absolute blast. With several modes to choose from, as well as coveted golden weapons always available from completing PvE content with Mann vs Machine, seasonal events, and a vibrant trading economy, it is no surprise that players are still drawn to the game....

Guild Esports has been disqualified from the VALORANT First Strike European qualifier after using an exploit in a match against G2 Esports. The victory would have sent the Swedish roster to the qualifier’s play-off stage, though they’ve now been handed a forfeit loss following the discovery. G2 has moved on to the play-off stage in their place. The match in question took place during the play-in stage of the first VALORANT First Strike European qualifier....

A hacking and ransomware group known as Egregor has allegedly obtained the source code to Watch Dogs: Legion, just two weeks away from its release date, along with a litany of files from developer and publisher Crytek. Egregor has created a ransomware program of the same name that appears to be based on another popular program, Sekhmet. Ransomware, for those who don’t know, is a type of malware that steals or encrypts a victim’s data and will not return or decrypt it unless the victim pays - or plays PUBG in one strange instance from 2018....

If the changes being brought to Halo 4 multiplayer locations make one thing clear, it’s that 343 Industries has taken the ‘bigger is better’ philosophy to heart (sometimes, to absurd lengths). With players able to jump higher and move faster than ever before, the potential for parity on larger vehicular maps like the newly detailed Vortex is far greater than in the past. Running across open spaces at a snail’s pace is a recipe for disaster - as any Halo fan knows - but Vortex packs more than a few surprises to bring a spin on the tried and true formula....

Rather than making its entire DC movie library available at one time, HBO Max is rotating movies in and out without explaining why. The world of TV and movie streaming has suddenly become pretty crowded in 2020. One year ago, Netflix was riding high with its competitors not even really nipping at its heels — let alone posing a real threat to its crown. Fast forward to today, and Disney+ and HBO Max have entered the fray with plenty of heavy-hitting content....

It’s a little bit funny when one thinks about the fact that the “All-American” ideal character of Superman is portrayed by a British man. Henry Cavill may come from across the pond, but he’s now synonymous with the role of Superman worldwide. Cavill made an impressive debut in Man of Steel and has continued to give consistently solid performances in each subsequent DCEU film that he’s participated in. However, that film universe’s stories have yet to really give him his due....

Gamers have known that Fallout 4 was on the horizon for months now, but Bethesda still hadn’t made it official until the release of today’s glorious new trailer. All the old familiar Fallout standards were there: the pull out from a TV screen, the old-timey music welcoming us to the Wasteland, and Ron Perlman reminding us that “war never changes.” The first current-gen Fallout game is headed for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, although an official release date has yet to be confirmed....

Get ready, samurai-in-training - we’ll hear more about Ghost of Tsushima when the review embargo lifts on July 14th at 7:00 AM PST. Sly Cooper and inFAMOUS developer Sucker Punch have been working on this Japanese open-world adventure. Ghost of Tsushima, and it has been almost six years since the release of their last game, inFAMOUS: First Light. Reviewers will likely be playing relatively soon or have been playing the game, since the game went gold earlier this week....

Roughly one week after Sony’s big PS5 gameplay reveal event and we’re still learning new details about the games shown. In a new developer documentary video posted today, Guerrilla Games confirmed that Horizon Forbidden West will not be launching with the PS5 this holiday, but instead sometime in 2021. That’s a detail I would have included during Sony’s event, but what do I know? That news is a bit of bummer, but the rest of the details paint us a clearer picture of what Guerrilla hopes to achieve....

The Horizon Zero Dawn video game sequel might make its debut appearance at the upcoming PlayStation 5 event. The lead animator behind the first Horizon Zero Dawn, Richard Oud, tweeted a statement (that has since been deleted) that told fans to make sure to mark their calendars in preparation for the premiere. For those out of the loop, Sony is hosting a function for the PlayStation 5 game reveal, where it will show off several of the titles that the console will have available to it at launch....

It’s hard to define what makes horror such an appealing genre for so many, but it may have to do with how it excels at any medium, whether its a book, movie, or video game. While longtime horror video game franchises have had their ups and downs — just look at the Resident Evil franchise — the Xbox Series X and PS5 seemed primed to usher in a new era of excellent horror games, with fresh IP like Quantum Error bringing something new to the table....

For those who believed that Dark Souls bosses were the pinnacle of video game boss design, From Software says just wait for Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Sekiro publisher Activision recently hosted Game Informer for a hands-on demo and interview, proffering some interesting new details on the upcoming action-RPG, including its boss battles. The comparisons between Sekiro and its predecessor series Dark Souls were particularly interesting, and are likely to raise expectations for From Software’s next big thing....

Final Fantasy VII is commonly believed to be the most popular game in the series, but that’s not the case in Japan, where the fans prefer Final Fantasy X. One of the reasons for this love is Yuna and her companions, which involves a tale about escaping one’s destiny and defying fate, in order to live the life you choose. It’s possible to create Yuna as a character in Dungeons & Dragons, as her powers are shared with several classes from the game....

VALORANT arrives in the tactical FPS scene with all of the genre’s staples intact - tense gun fights, importance of positioning and a simplified art direction which ensures competitive integrity. VALORANT does everything right, but isn’t just a direct clone of those that came before. It’s diverse cast of agents with an array of unique special abilities taking place of more traditional utility help to set it apart. Another way it sets itself apart is with the implementation of a map with three bombsites that works surprisingly well....
