Halo Infinite has a lot of expectations riding on its release. As an Xbox Series X launch title, it’s expected to show what the console can do. The game also needs to resolve Halo 5: Guardians’ years-long cliffhanger. After 343 Industries confirmed that Infinite would continue the story, details about plot or gameplay remained elusive. When Halo Infinite’s production was impacted by the coronavirus, fans assumed that 343 would eventually announce that the game would be delayed....

Rumors have been swirling about the Xbox Series X lately, with supposed leaks pointing to Microsoft showing off some of the console’s games as early as May. Nothing has been confirmed so far, but now another supposed “leak” claims to reveal more details about what exactly Microsoft will be announcing for the Xbox Series X. This leak originates from 4chan, so fans should take the information with a massive grain of salt....

Plenty of young gamers, who didn’t grow up with a controller in their hands, and casual players enjoy Apple’s touch iOS controls without reservation; however, there’s no doubt that hard-core gamers still struggle with the lack of tactile feedback (not to mention sweaty thumbs) that come with gaming on the iPad and iPhone. Similarly, the lack of a dedicated physical controller for the iOS platform (specifically the Apple TV) has, for many industry insiders, been a counter-point to continuous reports that Apple is preparing to enter the the hardcore game market....

When players dive into Rust, the main goal is to simply survive in a harsh wilderness, managing their thirst, health, hunger, and surviving against animals and other human players. While that remains the objective today nearly seven years after launching into Early Access, the new Sunburn Pack DLC will give players some much needed rest and relaxation, and it is available right now for purchase. Players will have access to a broad range of summer-themed items, starting with an above ground pool and paddling pool to take a break among the survival horror of daily life....

It is certainly not uncommon for details about an unreleased game to surface before that game has hit store shelves, and Sackboy: A Big Adventure and Spider-Man Miles Morales are no exception. The PS4/PS5 platformer starring the titular Sackboy has had its trophy list leaked, offering some more insight on what challenges fans will be facing in Sumo Digital’s newest title. Sackboy: A Big Adventure is a spin-off of the popular LittleBigPlanet series, which first saw its inception on the PlayStation 3 in 2008....

If you grew up in the aughts, you remember Saw. You remember the grim advertisements, the grisly kills, and the umpteen clones of its torture porn formula. You also probably remember the duo of iffy Konami games that came out. While the first installment at least had some ambition, the second was an unmitigated disaster that completely failed to understand the source material. But while those games failed for myriad reasons, that doesn’t mean Saw itself couldn’t translate well to gaming....

As surprising as it may sound, there hasn’t been a core Sonic the Hedgehog game since 2017. Sonic Forces was the last main experience, a game negatively received by both critics and fans. Team Sonic Racing, a spinoff putting the characters in cars, released last year to mediocre reviews. Simply put, while SEGA regained fans’ trust with Sonic Mania, there hasn’t been a hit since. Sonic is also approaching his 30th anniversary, with nothing to show thus far....

One is likely to have many thoughts flit through their head while watching Marvel’s latest epic origin story Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings. “Wow, Tony Leung really is handsome.” “I didn’t realize [REDACTED] was going to be in this!” But chief among those thoughts is sure to be: “Am I crazy, or does this soundtrack slap?” Well dear, reader, you are not crazy. The soundtrack for Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings does, in fact, slap....

I have often played games with my babies in the room and there have been no ill effects. All 3 are long past the baby stage, and none of them seem in any way adversely affected by my enjoyment of gaming. It’s perfectly safe to play while a baby is with you, as long as you’re being responsible. There are two different concerns that you mention, the game’s content and its volume....

When players have finished their favourite RPGs but can’t stomach the thought of moving on to something new, they often try out a new gameplay style. This may be as simple as choosing a new romance option or class, or so drastic that they commit to never killing an NPC. In Skyrim, it’s hard to do most of the interesting plotlines without killing someone, eventually. Even the game’s introduction requires it!...

It appears that Android and iOS users are currently able to download Sonic at the Olympic Games – Tokyo 2020 right now for the mobile platform, but not everyone is able to play the game depending on their region. Some users will be informed that they cannot play right at this moment, and others will see an Error Code 20309 instead. While this is a common issue that affects the world-wide rollout of games, users are still bombarding both platforms with 1-star reviews for not being able to play despite the release dates indicating that the formal launch has not yet arrived in each region....

The Hollywood reporter has confirmed that actor James Marsden will star in the upcoming Sonic the Hedgehog movie, though his role in the film has not yet been disclosed. Many may remember James Marsden from his role as Scott Summers/Cyclops in the 2000’s X-Men films, or his more musical parts in Hairspray and Enchanted. He’s currently starring as Teddy Flood in the HBO hit sci-fi series Westworld. According to IMDB, Marsden is the only actor listed for the film so far....

Sony issues a statement about whether the PS5 will have some sort of Smart Delivery feature, but its response is likely to frustrate many of its fans. The Xbox Series X Smart Delivery feature allows players to buy an Xbox One game and upgrade to the Xbox Series X version for free. After gamers began to ask about an equivalent PS5 Smart Delivery feature, Japanese gaming site Gamespark contacted Sony for an official statement....

Sony has suddenly released a new State of Play presentation that focuses completely on the upcoming PS5 exclusive remake of Demon’s Souls. The new gameplay footage gives us an in-depth look at the intricate character customization, some of the different classes, as well as locations and iconic bosses such as the Flamelurker and Dirty Colossus. SIE and Blue Point Games are hard at work in developing a faithful remake of 2009’s iconic Demon’s Souls, an action RPG developed by FromSoftware that kicked off a whole new genre of games now notably known as “SoulsBorne,” by its ever-growing passionate community....

Capcom has been working on the Resident Evil 2 remake for years, but fans have yet to see anything concrete on the project. Anyone impatient to revisit the zombie-infested streets of Raccoon City may want to check out Far Cry 5 to whet their appetite, as user ZergRex has used its Arcade mode map editor to remake the beginning area of Resident Evil 2. ZergRex’s Resident Evil 2 map in Far Cry 5, simply called Raccoon City, is a Journey map-type, meaning it’s all about players reaching an exit....

For the past few years now, Capcom has seen tremendous success in remaking Resident Evil games, and if rumors are to be believed, Resident Evil 4 will be Capcom’s next remake. At the moment, Capcom has already reimagined some of the first games in the Resident Evil franchise, allowing players to take a nostalgic trip back to Resident Evil’s classic period in the late ’90s. While the Resident Evil remakes have been successful so far, none can compare the praise given to the Resident Evil 2 remake....

Capcom has been teasing bits and pieces about its upcoming Resident Evil 8: Village for months, but today the Resident Evil Showcase livestream told fans just about everything they need to know about the highly anticipated next entry in the long-running survival horror franchise.
