Why Star Wars Battlefront Won T Have Space Battles

As revealed at last month’s Star Wars Celebration in Southern California, DICE and Electronic Arts’ Star Wars: Battlefront revival will have many of the features that made the original two games so popular: large scale Rebel-vs-Empire battles, levels ripped straight from the original trilogy (and a couple of new locations, too), and lots and lots of bots. Know what it doesn’t have? Space battles. That may not sound like a big deal, but the omission of space combat has fans up in arms, and with good reason: Star Wars Battlefront II featured space battles, and some players consider them one of the best parts of the game....

Seeing how some live-service titles, such as No Man’s Sky, recovered after a soft reboot, Anthem players saw a glimmer of hope in BioWare’s statement. After a long silence, BioWare and EA finally revealed that they are cancelling all things Anthem, with development focusing on upcoming entries in the Dragon Age and Mass Effect series....

Why June 3 Could Be A Huge Day For Gaming Update

Update 5/29: Sony has confirmed the PlayStation 5 game reveal event for Thursday, June 4, not Wednesday, June 3. Original story follows. Earlier this year, the release dates for Doom Eternal and Animal Crossing: New Horizons fell on the same day. It was considered a major day for gaming, and it’s safe to say both games lived up to expectations and then some. Doom Eternal earned high praise from critics, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons became a bonafide cultural phenomenon, really being the perfect game for the current age of isolation and social distancing....

Why Sly Cooper 5 Should Come To Playstation 5

With the PlayStation 5 now officially launched, now may be the perfect time for Sony to resurrect some of its older IPs, with plenty of older franchises that have gone untouched for many years. Some PlayStation exclusives have actually began to make a return in recent years, including Medievil, Crash Bandicoot, and Spyro the Dragon. But there’s one PlayStation franchise that hasn’t been seen in two console generations and nearly an entire decade: Sly Cooper, which first premiered in 2002, hasn’t appeared since Sanzuru Games’ Thieves in Time for the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita....

Will An Aggressively Anti Snyder Warner Stop The Snyderverse

Say what you will about Zack Snyder’s Justice League, but the director’s streaming superhero redux managed to branch the DC Extended Universe movies off into its own tangential timeline, which has since been dubbed the “SnyderVerse” by the fandom that now passionately hashtags for its restoration in the studio’s main continuity. While recent revelations about Snyder’s rough relationship with Warner make this restoration unlikely, the director isn’t entirely shutting the door on such a notion....

Wizards Unite The Complete Harry Potter Story

Harry Potter Wizards Unite, Niantic’s pseudo-unexpected followup to 2016’s augmented reality smash hit Pokémon Go, debuted on the 21st of June. Though the launch was somewhat muddled, the game is still apparently on track to make around $10 million within the first month. The Harry Potter franchise is said to be worth nearly $25 billion, and the new mobile title is just one example of the multimedia license’s continued pop-culture prominence....

Xcom 2 War Of The Chosen Review

Regardless of how victorious players were in XCOM: Enemy Unknown, Firaxis Games continued down a canon storyline with XCOM 2 that assumed players had ultimately lost the fight against the technologically superior alien invaders. This more or less sets the tone for the new War of the Chosen expansion: there are some fights you just can’t win, and the impressively deep expansion pack for XCOM 2 piles on the signature pain that strategy fans have come to embrace in almost masochistic fashion....

You Can T Pet The Dog In Final Fantasy Vii Remake

There are many dogs in Final Fantasy VII Remake and you can’t pet any of them. Final Fantasy VII Remake is a great game. It serves up a giant heaping dish of nostalgia with a bunch of new stuff thrown in too. If you’ve never experienced Final Fantasy VII, then Remake is the way to experience it. But FFVII Remake is not perfect. It’s lacking a feature that many modern games have, and its a feature that Square Enix is likely kicking themselves for forgetting....
