Fans who were hoping to see Lady Gaga in Cyberpunk 2077 will be sorely disappointed as it has been confirmed that the singer and actress won’t be involved in the game. It was previously reported that the 33-year-old star would be featured after sources claimed to have spotted her entering CD Projekt Red’s studio earlier this year. But, according to CDPR’s UI director Alvin Liu, she won’t be part of Cyberpunk, although she fits the bill....

Less than a month and a half remains between now and E3 2019, and early details about the convention continue to be confirmed by the day. The latest confirmation for this year’s E3 is the return of Square Enix Live, the Japanese publisher’s annual E3 press conference. E3 viewers from home can watch Square Enix’s event starting Monday, June 10 at 6:00 pm PT. Looking at that time, there should be one major notable change for this year’s Square Enix Live....

Resident Evil 2’s free DLC, The Ghost Survivors, has officially dropped. The new mini-campaigns task the player to try and make it out of Raccoon City in the shoes of four side characters caught up in the outbreak. In addition to making it through the tough mini-campaigns, players are tasked with finding a new set of Mr. Raccoon toys throughout the game. Here’s how to find all ten. Resident Evil 2’s base campaign contained its own set of Mr....

Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 aren’t quite two halves of the same whole, but they share a relationship almost unique to themselves in the medium. Both games take roughly around the same time, with Resident Evil 3 starting before RE2, Resident Evil 2 playing out in its entirety, and then Resident Evil 3’s homestretch wrapping up Raccoon City’s story arc. While their relationship isn’t as intimate as it once was on the PlayStation, the Resident Evil remakes have made sure to keep this dichotomy: going so far as to recreate RE2’s Police Station in Resident Evil 3....

Resident Evil 7 producer Masachika Kawata reveals some of the methods Capcom used during Resident Evil 7’s development to make it as scary as possible. Whereas the last few Resident Evil games have favored action over horror, the latest entry in the long-running series, Resident Evil 7, returned the franchise to its horror roots. Perhaps even more than the original games, Resident Evil 7 actively tries to scare players at every turn, and Capcom producer Masachika Kawata recently discussed how the RE7 team made the game so scary....

Capcom’s social media specialist Tim Turi details Resident Evil 7’s Deluxe Edition and reveals some of the pre-order bonuses for the upcoming horror game. While many games announced at E3 2016 are still years away from release, Resident Evil VII from Capcom will be available in a little over six months. As a result, Capcom has already announced some of the pre-order bonuses for the game, and has also offered fans details as to what to expect from its Deluxe Edition....

Resident Evil 3 and Resident Evil Resistance are fastly approaching their respective releases, but it appears the open beta for Resident Evil Resistance has run into some development issues. According to Capcom’s webpage for Resident Evil Resistance, the asymmetrical multiplayer game’s open beta will be slightly delayed due to “technical issues.” The delay will be affecting the PlayStation 4 and PC versions of the game, however, while Xbox One users will still be able to participate in the open beta at its scheduled date....

Resident Evil Village is coming out in one month, releasing on May 7, 2021, for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Series S, Xbox One, Google Stadia, Microsoft Windows. Capcom released a visual demo for the game earlier this year. Capcom confirmed that there will be a gameplay demo releasing before the official launch of the game. And we finally have some new details for this gameplay demo....

Recently, a Respawn Entertainment developer took the time to share before and after images of one of the best VR games of 2020. Level design in video games is not easy, and that is doubly true in VR. But the screenshots shared from a Respawn dev show just how much care and attention went into creating Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond. Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond reviewed relatively well, and arguably, one of the best aspects of the game is the gorgeous art style and top-notch level design....

Sun Blast by Obline Software is a neat new indie space shooter that combines Starfox-like quasi-3D gameplay with a fun arcade feel. There is nothing groundbreaking about the gameplay, graphics, or sound, and the story behind the game is as thin as a pixel, but that is all intentional as the designers go for a full nostalgic arcade experience that they end up pulling off quite well. Once you purchase Sun Blast from Steam for the price of a few rounds on an arcade game and fire it up, it only takes a minute to get into the action....

Theorycraft Games is a brand-new studio composed of industry veterans from Riot Games, Blizzard, Valve, and Bungie. A recent round of funding raised $37.5 million for the studio, led primarily by NetEase and several other investment firms. Founders of the new company have experience working on League of Legends, Halo, Destiny, and Team Fortress 2, bringing decades of experience to the new venture. “The Theorycraft team has a strong track record leading some of gaming’s most successful franchises....

Roald, the jock penguin from Animal Crossing: New Horizons, now works at Walmart. For some reason. You wouldn’t normally think of Roald as the ideal Walmart employee, but hear me out. He’s got some pretty buff flippers and can likely lift heavy objects all day long, given how his home’s interior is covered in enormously heavy ice sculptures and ice furniture. He’d also be ideal for the sports and recreation section of the store given his vast knowledge on the subject....

For years now, gamers have been wondering what the development team at Rocksteady Studios has been up to. After putting a bow on their Batman Arkham trilogy with Batman Arkham Knight, Rocksteady has gone dark with discussions about their next project, although that hasn’t stopped fans from speculating and rumors from flying. The latest rumor comes by way Eddie Stubbington, who apparently is joining the Rocksteady Studios team in the Quality Assurance department....

According to a recent job listing, Borderlands 3 could be joining the rest of the series on Nintendo Switch in the near future. As long-time Nintendo fans will know, the company’s consoles have historically tended to get the raw end of the deal when it comes to third-party ports. With their systems usually being less focused on pure tech specs than those of the competition, a lot of multi-platform games have simply been deemed as implausible for Nintendo’s consoles....

An FCC filing indicates that Microsoft may be planning on revealing an updated revision of the Xbox One at E3, though what sort of revision is unclear. Never underestimate the capabilities of internet detectives, because they will find secrets and lay them bare to the world. Such is the case again today, with NeoGAF user ekim connecting the dots between FCC filings and discovering a potential Xbox One-related E3 announcement. Ekim’s research indicates that Microsoft may be revealing the next iteration of their popular gaming console at the convention, though what form this Xbox One revision might take is yet a mystery....

Even though Call of Duty: Modern Warfare continues to be a sales juggernaut for Activision and Infinity Ward, there’s been a ton of rumors, speculation and leaks for what’s next for the franchise. In years past, the reveal for the current year’s game would have already happened, but the turbulent nature of the development cycle and the fact that there’s a global pandemic have obviously changed things. While evidence seems to be pointing to a revival of the original Black Ops, a massive new leak has seemingly revealed even more about Call of Duty 2020....

After somehow managing to drag yourself off the beach, cobble together some basic tools, and scrape together enough materials to build yourself a base in Rust, the last thing you want is to come back home and realize it has fallen apart. And no, we’re not talking about other players finding your little abode and tearing it down just for the fun of it, although that is also likely to happen....

SNK promised a next-gen upgrade for their reborn Samurai Shodown, and now SNK is delivering. Just announced today in a new trailer is Samurai Shodown Xbox Series X/S edition. Samurai Shodown already plays at 4K and 60 fps on PC, Xbox One X, and the PS4 Pro, but on Xbox Series X/S it’ll play at 120 fps while maintaining that beautiful 4K picture quality. Best of all, if you already own Samurai Shodown, Smart Delivery will download the Xbox Series X/S version automatically when it releases on March 16....

It’s been a bad year for CG animals. First, Sonic spindashed out of the darkest crevices of our collective imagination with a much-maligned trailer. Then, Cats married our worst waking nightmares with a glimpse into what Midwest FurFest might look like in the distant future. And now, The Lion King asks the question, “what if you watched the same movie again, but it was somehow worse this time?” Thankfully, OK K....
