Ahead of the big Ubisoft Forward event on July 12, Far Cry 6 leaked on the PlayStation Store, revealing the game’s February 18, 2021 release date and a variety of other information about the game. The Far Cry 6 box art was part of the big leak, showing a child character on the cover who some have theorized is actually a young version of iconic Far Cry 3 villain Vaas, meaning the upcoming Far Cry 6 could very well be a prequel....
A few weeks back, it was confirmed that Kristofer Hivju, an actor most famous for his role as Tormund in Game of Thrones, will be in The Witcher season 2. Now, it appears that yet another familiar face from the popular HBO series might be coming to the world of The Witcher as well, and it’s likely to be a popular choice amongst fans of the fantasy series. Natalie Dormer, the actress who portrayed Margaery Tyrell in Game of Thrones, is rumored to also appear in The Witcher during its upcoming season....

According to the rumors, the Xbox Series X will cost $400, and the Xbox Series S will cost $200. The rumor comes from Beyond3D forum user, Eastmen, who has inside information on the new Xbox consoles. “Last I heard it be half the price of the XSX and last I heard MS were prepared for a $400 XSX....
When sailing the ocean blue in Sea of Thieves, there is almost never a dull moment. Even when other players on the server aren’t as frequent, those sailing must always be prepared for a world event to interrupt their journey. This is especially true when underwater creatures pop up out of seemingly nowhere to wreck a ship. One of the more feared encounters to have in the game is the Kraken, a tentacled monster similar to a squid that will stop any boat in its tracks to mess around with those on board....
If there’s one thing you should expect to be able to do as a pirate in a game like Sea Of Thieves its to plunder and steal all the coins you can carry. But, as a game as a service title, the developers have included various types of currencies into the game, the most valuable of them being Ancient Coins. These can be earned extremely easily if you’re willing to fork over some of your real world cash, but that isn’t very pirate-like, now is it?...

IGN Fan Fest just wrapped up, and it brought with it a few big reveals for Netflix, such as a new Pacific Rim trailer and a new clip from the new crime drama, The Irregulars. But easily the biggest announcement was Shadow and Bone, a brand new show that adapts Leigh Bardugo’s Grishaverse novels for the small screen. We’ll first have to dig into why it’s called a “Grishaverse” for the rest of this to make sense....
Dare to speak the name of the scariest horror game character you know about. Odds are that you just whispered the name of Silent Hill‘s most famous monster, “Pyramid Head.” It’s always been a little odd that Pyramid Head became not just a legendary figure in horror gaming but the face of the Silent Hill franchise. After all, Pyramid Head (sometimes also called the “Red Pyramid Thing”) premiered in the second Silent Hill game and was supposed to be a one-off monster....
Creative Assembly 3D artist James Brady recreates the Midwich Elementary School from the first Silent Hill game using Unreal Engine 4 to stunning results. While the Silent Hill franchise may be dormant for now, that doesn’t mean fans of the series have forgotten about it. One fan, video game designer James Brady, has even taken it upon himself to pay tribute to the franchise’s origins, recreating the Midwich Elementary School from the first Silent Hill game by utilizing the power of Unreal Engine 4....
Skyrim is one of the most immersive RPGs ever made. Hundreds of quests and NPCs with 24-hour schedules help sell to the player that Tamriel is a real place. Delving through dungeons and uncovering items is a great part of Skyrim, but just as enjoyable is uncovering the game’s lore and character backstories. That said, not every story in Skyrim has an ending. Whether due to cut content or the game never elaborating on something, there are many quests and NPCs in the game that are obviously unfinished....
Skyrim is one of the most critically and commercially successful western RPGs of all time. Nearly ten years since its original release, Bethesda and fans are still finding new and creative ways to enjoy the game they fell in love with way back in 2011. Skyrim has popped up in some very strange places. It has been launched on many new platforms since its initial retail release, including mainstream platforms like the Nintendo Switch, but also some that would take even the most open-minded Skyrim fans by surprise....
Bethesda finally shows its hand, as the publisher announces at E3 2016 that Skyrim will be getting a Special Edition relaunch on the PS4 and Xbox One. Bethesda’s The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim is still one of the most popular RPGs in the world years after its release. Skyrim is one of the biggest games ever made, and its mix of magic and dragons with the freedom to put buckets on shopkeeper’s heads and hoard every tomato in the world in a player’s inventory has appealed to an incredibly diverse fanbase....
Rather than run to the nearest beach in search of some sun, I spent the majority of this past weekend playing The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD on Nintendo Switch. I simply couldn’t resist the opportunity to revisit a classic (if divisive) Zelda game. “Classic” is certainly the keyword here. Unlike Breath of the Wild’s free and open atmosphere, Skyward Sword emphasizes a somewhat telegraphed fantasy adventure made in the mold of Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, and other, more traditional, 3D Zelda entries....
What appears to be concept art for Sonic’s upcoming Netflix show includes Sonic traveling through dimensions and meeting with multiple versions of Dr. Robotnik. After months of waiting to hear how or even if Sega would be celebrating Sonic’s 30th anniversary, fans of the blue blur now have a lot to be excited about. Not just throughout the rest of 2021, but into 2022 too. That includes a brand new Netflix show called Sonic Prime....
Sony finally confirms the existence of its upgraded console, unveiling the PlayStation 4 Pro as a higher-end model of the current-gen console with 4K capabilities. The development of an upgraded PS4 console has been less of a rumor in recent months and more of an eventuality. Although Sony initially attempted to diffuse the news reports swirling around what insiders termed the PlayStation 4 NEO, it has never truly been in doubt that the gaming industry giant was hard at work on a brand new console....
The 2021 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) took place this week and for the first time in the show’s history was done completely online. Though the venue may have changed, it didn’t stop some of the biggest names in tech from offering a preview of what this year will hold for electronics. One of the more exciting showcases came from Sony as it puts the spotlight on the “Future of Entertainment.”...
Considering the fact that South Park: The Fractured But Whole’s development process included heavy involvement with the show’s creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker, fans of the popular animated television series and video game franchise certainly expected the forthcoming title to push the boundaries of satire and general decency. Of course, this led many to wonder whether or not some of the raunchier aspects of the title would be dialed back or censored outright in different regions of the world, but it seems as if that won’t be the case this time around....
Peter Parker’s redesign for Spider-Man Ps5 has finally been revealed, and fans are reacting negatively. Most are claiming that the new Peter looks too much like Tom Holland, his actor in the new Spider-Man movies. This is exciting to some fans, while others aren’t so happy with the decision. Memes are popping up quick, and social sites such as Twitter are already crawling with funny memes about Peter Parker’s new look....
The first reviews for Resident Evil’s upcoming Netflix series have arrived, and one of the biggest takeaways is something reviewers were asked not to mention. The world is currently trying to lift itself up and out of a pandemic while political issues become more prevalent than they ever have been before. That has shone a brighter spotlight than ever on the argument over whether politics and entertainment should be kept separate....
One of Capcom’s first and - let’s be real - only announcements at E3 2021 was news that downloadable content for Resident Evil Village is in the works. Given the game’s massive success, the publisher has decided to capitalise on its popularity with new stories inside this slice of the survival horror universe, and who can blame it? We know nothing about what these expansions will entail, so it’s far too early to draw any conclusions, but even now I’m unsure whether I want to see more from this world in its current state....
