Earlier today, Sony dropped a bomb when it said that it would reveal the PS5 to the world tomorrow, March 18. Despite rumblings of a PS5 reveal event happening as early as the start of February, it still came as a surprise, especially since Microsoft revealed new Xbox Series X specs just yesterday. Nonetheless, it is finally happening, but there’s the question of what will be revealed at the event....
With the news that Ubisoft is developing an open-world Star Wars game, speculation has run rampant on just what exactly this game is going to be. It could follow one of Ubisoft’s formulas for an open-world game, making it essentially a Star Wars-themed game in that series, or it could borrow some ideas from a bunch of Ubisoft titles to craft its own particular brand. One game that Ubisoft’s Star Wars game should borrow some ideas from is The Division....
Microsoft opened its E3 press conference this year by revealing the next game in the Halo series. Details were slim in the new trailer for Halo: Infinite, but it was later confirmed that the game will be focused on Master Chief’s story. More details were confirmed today by Chris Lee, Studio Head at 343 Industries, via Twitter. Lee says that the forthcoming game will be a continuation of the last installment in the series, Halo 5: Guardians....
Among Bungie’s litany of announcements, Destiny will be implementing something called the “DCV” to preserve the past and the future of Destiny 2. DCV, which stands for the “Destiny Content Vault,” will essentially assist in retiring legacy Destiny 1/2 content into a repository. Though an important distinction is that the DCV is not a permanent deactivation of retro content for Destiny, but rather acts as a conservationist effort by Bungie....
Few studio these days can command the kind of diehard dedication and complete trust like Valve, despite the company holding only a number of established franchises under their umbrella. Even so, the company’s game development side has made a habit of spotting talent, and skipping past notions of contracts or publishing rights to the point of hiring, or outright purchasing. Such was the case with Turtle Rock Studios, the team that first created Left 4 Dead....
Assassin’s Creed recently released the newest entry into the series, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, which is full of strong vikings who look like they could crush players easily. Previous installments include Assassin’s Creed Odyssey with a nimble Kassandra, and Assassin’s Creed Origins with scarred-and-super-muscular Bayek and silently deadly Aya. These recent characters are just the latest culmination of the series, as the Assassin’s Creed franchise has been rooted in physical activity since the very first game....
Sony’s latest console, the PS5, has been out for a couple of months now at this point. Grabbing one of these is still as difficult as it was at launch, mostly due to scalpers clearing out most of the stock from most major retailers. The PS5 does promise a bunch of new games, including a successor to the critically acclaimed God of War, the fan-named God of War: Ragnarok (as no real name has yet to be confirmed), set to release this year....
Last month, Black Ops III was revealed as the next installment in the continually popular Call of Duty series, offering up the franchise’s patented brand of FPS action with a liberal helping of the future tech seen in Advanced Warfare. Now, fans are wondering just what platforms the title will see release for. Suspicions were raised when the Black Ops III website offered visitors the chance to link their Nintendo Network ID, suggesting that the game would be ported to the Wii U....
Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’s battle royale mode, Blackout, has become incredibly popular among gamers. Players have enjoyed facing off as some of the series’ most iconic soldiers while events like the Zombies holiday have given fans an additional reason to keep playing. Most importantly, that dedication has persisted for a product that retails for full price, while the competition is either cheaper or free. But according to Wedbush Securities analyst Michael Pachter, that entry fee may disappear this year....
With World of Warcraft’s Legion expansion releasing, Blizzard releases one final trailer entitled ‘The Fate of Azeroth’ to help build up hype for the launch. World of Warcraft’s Legion expansion is officially released – in Europe. North American players still have several hours to go until Dalaran makes the trip to the Broken Isles and the Legion invades in full. In the meantime, players are likely stocking up on snacks and energy drinks, or maybe leveling one more alt to 100 through invasions....
The weekly offering of free titles from Epic Games is always good, but this week they’ve turned the volume up to eleven by giving away World War Z, absolutely free. The third-person shooter by developer Saber Interactive offers some of the best multiplayer zombie battling action, which is saying a lot for a sub-genre that has been completely saturated over the years. First released in April of 2019, World War Z kicked of its launch in a strong way thanks to paid sponsorship deals with top streamers like Shroud, who showed off the great-looking multiplayer action....
Activision Blizzard is currently under investigation following accusations of harassment, discrimination, and fostering a hostile work environment. You can read more about the investigation here. Now that WoW Dragonflight has finally been released, fans can get their first full taste of the expansion that some hope will “save World of Warcraft.” It remains to be seen if the expansion will live up to the hype, but the early changes the update offers already have players scrambling for the best class builds....
Xbox boss Phil Spencer suggests that eSports could eventually be “as big as regular sports,” with the fact that anyone can start playing a game being a big factor. The eSports industry is on track to rake in $1.9 billion (in annual revenue) by 2018, only furthered by big names such as Activision (which recently purchased Major League Gaming) and former NBA player Shaquille O’Neal (who recently began sponsoring a League of Legends team) also getting involved....

From Doom Eternal and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt to The Outer Worlds and Gears 5, the list of blockbuster experiences on the service is substantial, ensuring players get a lot of bang for their buck. However, with new games joining the service all the time, Xbox Game Pass does have to make some room for fresh experiences....
Ryan Reynolds has had an unfortunate run with the DC universe, with his big starring vehicle, Green Lantern, being released to abysmal reviews and poor audience reception. The film became a laughing-stock among internet communities, to the point where even Reynolds himself has taken cracks at the film, including a joke at his own expense in the Deadpool films. Nonetheless, he nearly appeared in Zack Snyder’s Justice League. Green Lantern was released sometime before DC’s current push for a connected cinematic universe, so it wasn’t a huge surprise when Reynolds wasn’t invited to return as Green Lantern in any of the films....

Nintendo Switch’s star is on the rise. It’s arrived, and it’s starting to damn well deliver. So many gamers were –entirely understandably—a little dubious about the system when it was first announced. It had that Fisher Price, slightly gimmicky look to it, and it seemed as though Nintendo might have another Wii U on their hands. That doesn’t seem to be the case this time around, though. Mario Odyssey is looking to do for Super Mario what Breath of the Wild did for the Legend of Zelda....
The release of God Eater 3 on the Nintendo Switch has shown exactly how well a port from the PC and the PlayStation 4 can be, sacrificing some minor graphics and appearances, but maintaining a fluid, fantastic looking frame rate and adding some much-needed multiplayer additions. If this is your first time playing through a game like this, read on through to get a glimpse into what each weapon can offer in terms of utility and playstyle....
After an impressive showing at Electronic Arts’ E3 2018 press conference yesterday, one of the biggest upcoming games on everyone’s mind is Anthem, the new original IP from Mass Effect and Dragon Age developer BioWare.

Well, it seems someone might have some answers....
“You don’t do the business, the business will do you,” B.B. King (Kelvin Harrison Jr.) tells the rising Elvis Presley (Austin Butler) in Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis. He says this after a late-night jam session which includes Little Richard (Alton Mason), and while the blues guitarist is admiring the shiny new ride owned by the white rock and roll sensation. King advises Elvis to start his own label. In reality, B.B. King did just that in 1956....
