Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive file trademarks for something called Judas, which could relate to Rockstar’s first major project since Grand Theft Auto V. Ever since the massive success that was Grand Theft Auto V, fans of Rockstar Games have been patiently waiting to see what’s next from the celebrated studio. While we wait for a concrete announcement on that front, Rockstar Games and parent company Take-Two have filed a pair of trademarks for something game-related called Judas, which some speculate could be the title of a future project from the studio....

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is still six months away from launch, but that hasn’t stopped fans from discussing what’s coming next for the top-selling shooter franchise. We know that Infinity Ward will be developing 2019’s Call of Duty game, and if a new rumor is to be believed, the game it’s working on is none other than Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. This rumor comes from the site Gaming INTEL, which cites unnamed sources....

Beloved though the game may be by those few souls who played it, Michel Ancel’s Beyond Good & Evil never made much of a splash in the marketplace. Still, the adventures of Jade and Pey’J were slated to continue in a sequel announced way back in 2008. In the years since, very little substantive information on the game has surfaced. Prospects for Beyond Good & Evil 2 appeared to bottom out when Ancel, in an interview with GamesRadar, confirmed that the game wouldn’t appear on current consoles....

With Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain nearing release in September, many people are wondering what will happen to Hideo Kojima. It’s no secret that this will be his last Metal Gear title as the rift between the creator and Konami has gotten more and more public over the past few months. It’s bad timing, considering the marketing push needed for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, but the drama is still happening anyway....

This article appears in the next issue of DEN OF GEEK magazine. SUBSCRIBE HERE! For many genre fans, there’s no more formative figure in our collective consciousnesses than Sarah Michelle Gellar, iconic lead of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the woman who taught us all how to fight back against monsters of both the fictional and all-too-human varieties (and drop some very quotable one-liners in the process). Now, 25 years later, she’s about to take a leading role on another show that aims to use its scary setting as a backdrop to explore frighteningly human themes and real-world issues....

FromSoftware’s 2019 hit Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice will soon be receiving a surprise update that adds a few often-requested features to the game. Starting October 29, you’ll be able to attempt a boss rush gauntlet without having to resort to fan mods for the feature.

Every time a World of Warcraft expansion comes out new zones are introduced, usually stuffed to the gills with exciting new content for players to explore. In Shadowlands, there were five major zones introduced upon release – Bastion, Maldraxxus, Ardenweald, Revendreth, and The Maw – each home to their own unique secrets. Revendreth is the last of the four planes of the afterlife the player is sent to after the Winter Queen asks the player to seek out Sire Denathrius....

Sega of Europe registers a pair of online domain names that tease the possibility of the original Shenmue games being remastered for current-generation consoles. Before Shenmue III was announced at E3 2015, Shenmue fans went over a decade without any hope of Sega continuing the franchise. Now Shenmue III has broken Kickstarter records and is well on its way to launching later this year. Besides Shenmue III, however, fans of the series may have even more to look forward to in 2017, such as HD remasters of the original Shenmue games....

Announced at E3 2018 as being in pre-production, it is safe to assume that development of The Elder Scrolls 6 is well underway. In the almost two years since ES6’s logo was first shown against the backdrop of a rolling, mountainous vista, Bethesda have kept details of setting, gameplay and defining features under close wraps. The recent headline news regarding potential leaks, since revealed to be false, has if nothing else rekindled speculation on what’s going on behind closed doors....

Last month Bright Memory was released on Steam after just over a year in Early Access. Originally titled Bright Memory: Episode 1, it has since been renamed to just Bright Memory, as its planned second and third episodes will now be reimagined, along with an overhaul of the already-released first episode, as Bright Memory: Infinite. Some early gameplay footage released around the same time as the initial Bright Memory is already demonstrating that the re-release will be a visual treat....

Few activities are more contentious than talking about Star Wars on the internet. Defenders and detractors seem equally driven to relitigate the merits of every entry, from blockbusters like The Last Jedi to deep cuts like The Battle for Endor. But the most surprising Star Wars critic might be Jonathan Kasdan, co-writer of the divisive Solo: A Star Wars Story. Teaming with his legendary screenwriter father Lawrence — writer of several Star Wars entries, including Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, and The Force Awakens — Kasdan seemed like the perfect choice to take on the origin story of Han Solo....

It’s hard to not associate the word ‘grime’ with that disgusting splodge you usually find in your kitchen, or perhaps a certain zombie-thwarting sheriff. However, Clover Bite and Akupara Games’ action-adventure RPG Grime is anything but splodge. It’s beautifully designed, intriguing, and features mutating weapons that suck enemies into a black hole. While its premise is a little hard to grasp, Grime’s environments are undeniably stunning, flaunting picturesque visuals while spawning Oddworld-inspired enemies....

While most licensed games are often accused of being lazy cash grabs, SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom is often regarded by fans as a genuinely superb cult-classic. Not only does the title manage to deliver fully explorable areas of Bikini Bottom for players to explore, but it also brought a lot of the humor and charm of the popular franchise to an entirely new medium. Naturally, a lot of the game’s biggest fans were overjoyed when it was announced that the title would be seeing a full remake during THQ Nordic’s pre-E3 announcements last year, with the game going under the new title of Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated....

Barely a week goes by without a team of psychologists trying to ascertain the exact effect that video games have upon the dosage of chili sauce people will serve another person in a laboratory environment (it has real-life relevance, honestly), among other questions. This week has been no exception, as two new widely-publicized pieces of research have entered the headlines claiming very different findings. As we’ve pointed out on Game Rant before, the news media’s treatment of such research tends to revolve around three simple principles: omission, oversimplification and sensationalism....

Since its release, Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout has started to work its way into the collective consciousness of gamers everywhere.

In the latest crazy news from this world, modder XXCrazy PotatoXX has presented us with the ultimate Fall Guys mod for the Resident Evil 3 Remake, Jilly Bean....

While most of the recent talk regarding Resident Evil Village has involved a certain giant vampire lady, there is a feeling of genuine excitement for the game itself and how it will build upon the stunning Resident Evil 7. So far as that goes, it’s kind of incredible that Capcom has been able to generate so much hype for the game despite the fact that they haven’t revealed many crucial details about the project....

One of the most fascinating moments in the Resident Evil Village gameplay footage reveal happens around the 3:15 mark of this video when we are formally introduced to the game’s merchant. Naturally, any discussion of merchants and Resident Evil is going to make fans fondly remember the merchant from Resident Evil 4 and how his cry of “got something that might interest you” preceded what could very well be the only welcome trench coat flash in human history....
