Super Mario Maker 2 is one of the best first-party titles released for the Nintendo Switch in 2019. The main problem with Super Mario Maker 2 lies with its multiplayer modes, which were heavily promoted in the run-up to its release, yet were a total letdown when the game finally launched. The people who have played New Super Mario Bros. on the Wii can attest to how great the four-player multiplayer modes in the game can be, and Super Mario Maker 2 has the potential to be just as fun, except on a much grander scale....

After a slight delay, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s fourth season was launched last month and introduced many exciting things to both Modern Warfare and Warzone. The new additions included new modes to their playlists, new challenges, weapons, and the return of some features. Although Season 4 still has a month to go before it ends, many players are now speculating on what Infinity Ward will bring to the game once Season 5 begins....

Hitman 3 isn’t just the latest Hitman game to make its debut on modern systems - it’s also the very first Hitman game to give you an official way to play in virtual reality. Yes, you may have seen the hype and excitement swirling over Agent 47’s latest adventure, but I’m willing to be you haven’t seen enough people talk about this excellent addition. Finally, you can go behind the eyes of a bald man and either wreak havoc or walk silently through a crowd of people completely unnoticed....

The Star Trek universe is alive with possibility, as it moves forward with several new Paramount+ TV series in the coming years. However, it is not forgetting the franchise’s 55-year history in the effort. Its new series are very much grounded in characters, settings, and themes Trekkies have long-loved. This includes Star Trek: Prodigy, the upcoming animated TV series created by The LEGO Movie‘s Kevin and Dan Hageman. The Nickelodeon-produced TV show will see Kate Mulgrew reprise the role of Captain Kathryn Janeway—kind of....

Umurangi Generation is a fabulous title to try out whether you’re quietly waiting for New Pokémon Snap as a longtime fan, recently learned about it through the release announcement, or are just interested in something new as a gamer. The game is available on Steam and is similar to a first-person shooter, only you’re shooting photos instead of bullets. In this setting, you play a photographer living in an a grungy dystopian-like future, full of colors and graffiti....

Anyone that has been following the current meta in Destiny 2 knows that grenade launchers have fast become a preferred option for boss DPS. In the new Crown of Sorrow raid specifically, grenade launchers can make quick work out of the final boss, Gahlran, and will typically allow for a one-phase boss DPS section. But what is it about grenade launchers that makes them so good? And which grenade launchers should players be looking for?...

This feature contains spoilers for Marvel’s Eternals. Eternals is now streaming on Disney+, and many people who missed seeing it on the big screen are finally getting a chance to check out what they might have heard is a rare misstep from Marvel Studios in the comfort of their own home. Meanwhile, others are wondering if Eternals is worth revisiting at all after struggling with it the first time. I fall into a different category....

One of the most challenging and memorable bosses in the Kingdom Hearts series is Final Fantasy 7’s Sephiroth. Sephiroth makes an appearance in both Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts 2 as a notoriously difficult optional boss for Sora and the gang to battle, but it sounds like he may not be going for the hat trick. According to series creator and Kingdom Hearts 3 game director Tetsuya Nomura, Sephiroth may not be in the third game at all....

When Disney launched its in-house streaming service Disney+ back in 2019, it changed everything about what we understood Marvel television programming to be. Rather than the offbeat, second-tier, or downright weird offerings that were previously spread across a variety of networks and streamers we’d seen in the past, Marvel television suddenly became as important a plank in the MCU’s slow march to pop culture dominance as any feature film. From the arrival of series finally fleshing out the stories of characters who’d briefly appeared in its movies (WandaVision, Loki) to more obvious tie-ins and crossovers with the MCU film universe (Yelena in Hawkeye, Wanda in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness), Marvel TV series are now something very different than they once were just a year or two ago....

As moviegoers absorb Eternals, a new, conceptually-unique entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, sequel speculation has already started. While one might cynically conclude that such a development depends on the obvious aspect of the film’s box office performance, producer Nate Moore—who served on the film alongside company heavies like Louis D’Esposito and studio head honcho Kevin Feige—is implying that the choice ultimately comes down to artistic avenues. However, his answer also notably uses the dreaded s-word: standalone....

During Bethesda’s E3 2018 press conference last year, the video game publisher officially announced Wolfenstein: Youngblood, a new co-op action game based in the Wolfenstein universe that puts players in the shoes of BJ Blazkowicz’s twin daughters in 1980’s Paris, France. Now, alongside a fresh story trailer, the company has officially declared that the title will be releasing on July 26, 2019 for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch....

Building a guild from the ground up is one of the most harrowing tasks to accomplish in World of Warcraft Classic. Meeting new people can be a stressful experience on its own. Mix the added discomfort of trying to convince strangers into joining a guild and you’ve got a great recipe for anxiety. Nevertheless, creating and fostering a guild is also the most fulfilling activity the game has to offer....

WWE games are best known for their massive rosters (and, occasionally, their hilarious glitches). After all, countless fans tune in to live wrestling shows every week to watch wrestlers grapple and slap each other silly, and since each competitor adopts a different style and gimmick, viewers naturally gravitate towards their favorites. Thanks to WWE titles, those fans can control their preferred champions as they either recreate their favorite matches or dream up new ones....

Releasing earlier this month for mobile devices, WWE Undefeated sees players take control over their favourite WWE superstars in action-packed PVP matches. So far, it seems players are warming to the newest WWE video game adaptation, with the overall score sitting at 3.6 / 5 on iOS and 4.3 / 5 on Google Play at the time of writing. With the game hitting stores around two weeks ago, it seems the time has come for nWay, the developers behind the title, to release a number of fixes....

It’s been about two weeks since we first reported the trailer for Microsoft’s 2012 Xbox Live House Party. While the trailer served as a fun tease for the upcoming promotion, two pieces of critical information were conspicuously absent - the full release schedule as well as pricing for each of the four included games: I Am Alive, Alan Wake’s American Nightmare, Warp and Nexuiz. Fortunately, with just over three weeks left before the promotion is about to start, Microsoft has unveiled the full list of Xbox LIVE Arcade House Party Dates and Prices....

Xbox has announced which four games will be available to Games with Gold subscribers this July. While everyone has been talking about Game Pass and Xbox’s efforts to keep making it the best deal in gaming right now and forever, Games with Gold offers up a lesser but still pretty sweet deal. Access to a handful of different games each month for a much lower fee. Sure, you can’t keep them forever unless you pay for them after the fact, but free games are free games....

Whether gamers are ready are not, the next generation of gaming consoles is already here. This means they can expect to see a ton of new games announced over the next couple of years or even months. Truth be told, some of these games are already in development or are just getting some finishing touches added before their big debuts. Fans already know that they will be getting tons of new First Person Shooter (FPS) games from famed Microsoft franchises like Halo and like most gens, this one will be full of racing goodness (Gran Turismo, anyone?...

Marred by awkward camera controls and sluggish gameplay, Yasai Ninja’s content doesn’t deliver on the zany premise of a feudal Japan inhabited by ninja vegetables. The history of video games is littered with bizarre premises. From icons such as Super Mario – a plumber traveling to mysterious kingdoms full of violent turtles and friendly mushroom men – to the complex storylines of the Final Fantasy series, it seems as though no topic is exempt from being adapted into a game....

Akira Toriyama is the creator of Dragon Ball, which makes him one of the most important figures in the history of anime and manga. He is the creator of the second best-selling manga of all time, and its anime adaptation was the gateway to Japanese animation for many kids who grew up in the early ’00s. With that being said: he has a very defined style, which means that a lot of designs can look samey....
