Despite being lambasted by critics, Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery still has its fair share of fans who may be curious as to where the mobile game is headed in the future. We know that a future update will add pets, and as it turns out, future updates could also add some kind of multiplayer component to the game. This information comes from a recent interview developers Jam City had with Newsweek, where it discussed some of its future plans for the game....

Windbond will instantly draw comparisons to The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker thanks to its ocean theme and cel-shaded graphics. But the gameplay is rather unique to itself, and after looking past some of the rough edges of the game, Windbound becomes a pleasant and enjoyable experience. The story of Windbound is told through cutscenes, vague text, cave paintings, and with the environment itself. The game opens up with Kara and her clan sailing the seas during a violent storm....

Is this Bad Movie Week at all the big streaming platforms? We haven’t checked in with Prime Video or HBO Max yet, but after struggling through Hulu’s Deep Water a few days ago we now find ourselves faced with this week’s soon-to-be-forgotten Netflix offering, Windfall. Windfall was directed by Charlie McDowell, who gave us the interesting, quirky, and eerie The One I Love a few years back and the numbingly dull The Discovery after that....

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is full of many different weapons and armor mechanics that are very expansive compared to other medieval role-playing games of a similar genre. One of the most important mechanics revolving around equipment in The Witcher 3 is the ability to dismantle gear, which will yield extra crafting ingredients for the player and help clean up the player’s inventory when they are nearing their max carry weight....

Wolfenstein: Youngblood is a game that is intended for co-op play, with an A.I. controlled bot taking control of the other character when playing the single-player mode. One restriction of co-op play is that there is no split-screen mode on any version of the game, which means that the player will need to go online if they want to play with friends. Wolfenstein: Youngblood follows the twin daughters of B.J. Blazkowicz, who must enter Nazi-occupied Paris in order to find their missing father....

When Gal Gadot reprises her role as Diana Prince in Wonder Woman 1984, she will be joined a cast of supporting players both new and familiar.

Originally slated to hit theaters in June 2020, Wonder Woman 1984 was pushed back twice this year on account of the COVID-19 pandemic....

This article consists of nothing but Wonder Woman spoilers. The Wonder Woman movie is now on HBO, and it expands the DCEU in new and exciting ways. It also draws on all elements of the over 75 year history of Wonder Woman to tell a fresh, exciting origin story. And oh yeah, it’s packed with DC Comics references. So, here’s how this works…other than the intro (which I decided to do on its own), this isn’t chronological, I’m just making connections where I can....

The coronavirus is having an impact on day to day activities across the globe, and as the pandemic continues more and more indoor activities are being encouraged. The World Health Organization (WHO) is now recommending gamers stay indoors during the pandemic and play video games. While plenty of games are adjusting to the coronavirus, players won’t need too much encouragement to stay at home and play their favorite titles. WHO have put together a #PlayApartTogether campaign which encourages self-isolation, social distancing, and of course, gaming....

2020 is a year that has seen all forms of entertainment adapt and change due to cultural, political, social and physical shifts. One of the most significant is the greater awareness and necessity of diversity within the entertainment industry. It was earlier this week that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences unveiled new diversity requirements for best picture nominations at the Oscars. Yet the video game industry is not exempt from the new social movement and even older games are making some changes....

Warning: This article contains MAJOR spoilers for Dark Phoenix. Obviously. We have a spoiler free review for you here. Dark Phoenix is the 12th film in the X-Men film franchise, and the second to last movie made under the 20th Century Fox umbrella before the Disney-Fox merger that will presumably bring the X-Men movies into the Marvel Studios fold. As the last film in this category—New Mutants, set to be released in 2020—doesn’t focus on the “main” characters of the X-Men film franchise as we have come to know them, Dark Phoenix is tasked with not only wrapping up its own story, but the stories of the prequels and this era of X-Men on-screen storytelling as a whole....

When it comes to the Yakuza franchise, the character of Majima Goro is one of the top fan-favorites and arguably he often steals the show from every other character in the Yakuza series with his weird and wonderful personality. Majima became so popular that even though he first appeared as a side character and part-time antagonist to Kiryu, he later featured as a co-protagonist for Yakuza 0. Whether you’re a big fan of the Mad Dog of Shimano or not, there might be a thing or two that you didn’t know about the eccentric Patriarch of the Majima family....

Last month, Square Enix kicked off an event at the Tokyo Skytree to celebrate the release of Final Fantasy VII Remake.

Zack Snyder fans have finally begun to settle after the premiere of his four-hour long Justice League, which sparked waves of SnyderVerse campaigns much to Warner Bros. delight. Snyder’s vision is pretty clear when it comes to sequels, and his ability to make the gold-plated villains of DC just as menacing on-screen works to his advantage. Justice League’s Darkseid and Steppenwolf certainly demanded attention within the tight 4:3 ratio, and the former’s conflict with his warrior was very apparent in the narrative but left unexplained....

There are plenty of towns, villages, and stables littering the map that provide players a reprieve from their adventures in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. While they are a boon for those attempting to navigate the wilds of Hyrule, most offer only basic comforts. Vendors you encounter will typically provide much of the same – spare a few original armor sets and unique stores here and there. Even shopping for basic necessities, such as arrows, will have players hopping from town to town in an attempt to buy from limited supplies of stock....
