In tandem with Epic Games’ free game every week, GeForce Now will be adding each and every new entry to its ever-growing setlist on Thursdays, along with consistently expanding its library with new and returning titles....

By now, most gamers have at least caught wind of Genshin Impact. The free-to-play MMORPG hit has been garnering praise as a Breath of the Wild alternate, and it just celebrated the release of its first major update to Version 1.1. Fans of the game have been enjoying several new characters and other content thanks to the update, but Genshin Impact devotees seem to have their eyes fixed on coming months....

As evidenced in our review for the recently released God of War, Sony and Santa Monica Studio have managed to craft an action-adventure epic that not only evolves the character of Kratos, but also delivers a technical and narrative powerhouse that pushes the PlayStation 4 to its absolute limits. Of course, in order to truly appreciate a work of art, one must also be able to poke fun at it, which is why Smosh Games has decided to give the PS4 exclusive the Honest Trailer treatment....

Leading up to the highly anticipated release of the critically acclaimed God of War, exclusive to PlayStation 4, the game’s Creative Director, Cory Barlog, has revealed some more details about the game’s iconic hero, Kratos. Barlog reveals details about Kratos’ mentality in the game, the significance of his son, Atreus, and what type of journey Kratos is embarking on in the latest instalment of God of War. From the start of his explanation of Kratos, Barlog clearly states that the type of Kratos that we are about to encounter in the new God of War is vastly different from the confident and self-assured Kratos that we knew previously, and that he has in fact undergone “a lot of change....

Happy birthday, Good Old Games! To help celebrate its 12th anniversary, the storefront has an anniversary sale which includes some top-tier titles like River City Girls, Darksiders Genesis, and Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. The GOG Anniversary sale is running now until October 9th. Here are some highlights from the sale that we were able to pick out; despite the website being focused on retro PC titles, there’s a lot of modern indie titles here:...

With over 17 jobs to choose from in Final Fantasy XIV it’s tough for players to know which one to choose. Fans will largely agree that no one class is superior to others as much of the game is based around group play and everyone has their job to do. Instead what matters is how well the player masters their job in battle. There’s no point in being the strongest job on paper if the player doesn’t know how to do the job well, so this guide will rank the jobs based on how easy they are for the average player to pick up....

During last week’s E3 2017 celebration festivities, Square Enix decided to reveal the release date for the upcoming expansion content coming to Final Fantasy 15 in Episode Prompto, and now the publisher and developer has put out a brand new trailer for the add-on that details the character taking part in third-person shooter combat. Not to mention, the footage also touches on some of the DLC’s story as well, as Prompto is on a quest to understand his origins....

Final Fantasy VII is considered by many to be one of the greatest games released on the original PlayStation, and perhaps the greatest JRPG of all time. There’s no denying that the golden age of JRPGs would’ve probably not even happened had it not been for the rampant success of Final Fantasy VII, which ended up opening the blast doors in the most resounding manner possible when it came to showing the potential of this particular genre....

Final Fantasy 7 Remake has a texture problem. Part of it can be attributed to texture pop-in, which is when a game loads in high-quality textures slowly so objects at first appear muddy only to become high-rez with a pop. Final Fantasy 7 Remake definitely has this problem, but it’s more than that. Surprisingly often, textures never seem to pop — they stay as lower resolution textures, and backgrounds especially seem to have these problems....

In just a week, Final Fantasy 7 Remake’s first outing will be releasing to players around the world. Some lucky few may already be playing the game, but soon everyone will be introduced to a reimagining of one of the greatest RPGs of all time. PlayStation recently put out the final trailer before the release of Final Fantasy 7 Remake today. Though it’s chock full of some questionably specific details, here’s what was in the final trailer and how these details may factor into the full game....

While playing video games, gamers are likely to find themselves falling into certain habits. Most players won’t be surprised to catch themselves leaning to the side in real life in an attempt to dodge an attack in game, or subscribing to the belief that an attack will do more damage if the button is pressed harder or faster. These are classic examples of the RPG logic that inspires memes. Final Fantasy 7 Remake takes one such habit and grinds it to dust, as it forces players to use items in order to survive, especially in the early stages of the game....

In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, the players start by choosing between the Black Eagles, Blue Lions, and Golden Deer houses to teach and lead in battle. While each house automatically comes with a well-rounded set of students, it is possible and highly encouraged to recruit other units to join your side. However, convincing other students and faculty to join your side is not always easy. Some units are harder to impress than others, depending on what skills, stats, or levels they gravitate towards....

Legendary Pictures’ MonsterVerse franchise has been building towards a confrontation between Godzilla and King Kong. Now, Warner Bros. has teased the long-awaited showdown by debuting the first official footage from Godzilla vs. Kong at Brazil’s virtual CCXP event. Legendary’s MonsterVerse film series launched in 2014 with the release of director Gareth Edwards’ Godzilla, a reboot of the Toho franchise designed to exist within a shared universe consisting of other classic Kaiju....

“I made him the highest paid actor in Hollywood history. We had a lot of fun!” So purrs Tom Hanks’ brazenly camp Col. Tom Parker in the new Elvis biopic. The film, which is the most decadent, jewel-encrusted piece of kitsch ever given an $85 million budget, is as much a monument to director Baz Luhrmann’s showmanship as it is Elvis Presley’s. For who else could condense the larger than life excess of a man dubbed “the King of Rock ’n Roll” into a three-ringed circus that keeps all its plates in the air for 160 minutes?...

The Shelby crime empire is headed to consoles and PC as Peaky Blinders, nearing its fifth season, is apparently set to be released in the form of a video game. The BBC period crime drama, starring Cillian Murphy, has done well enough to earn a fifth season. It can even be guzzled as it comes as a pale ale called the Saddler’s Peaky Blinder. But, to take things a step further, developer FuturLab has teamed up with publisher Curve Digital to create a video game adaptation of the popular TV show featuring an “innovative story-driven design where you’ll be able to play as various characters as you explore Peaky Blinders’ digital Birmingham....

A former employee of the Polish developer has spoken up about excessive crunch and miniscule pay during the development of The Witcher 3. Crunch culture is a known problem at CD Projekt Red. With each delay to their upcoming Cyberpunk 2077, the hellish development process stretches out even longer for the team. And unfortunately, that death march has continued with yesterday’s announcement that the long-gestating game has been delayed yet again....

Fortnite’s Season 5 content is in full swing, now that the season has been around for a couple weeks. As such, Fortnite’s Season 5 Week 2 challenges are here for players to get some easy bonus experience for the week. One of those challenges tasks players with finding three hidden clues scattered around Fortnite’s map, which can be a bit tricky to pull off. The clues are found inside of certain blue mailboxes in specific locations in Pleasant Park, Holly Hedges, and Lazy Lake....

Every single week in Fortnite brings along a slew of new challenges for players to complete. These challenges are typically not too difficult to get through, but they can be puzzling when players aren’t sure what locations to visit in order to complete them. The Season 5 Week 14 Challenges mostly revolve around food, and one specifically tasks players with harvesting fruits and vegetables, but Fortnite won’t give players more details than that....

Following a brief maintenance period, Epic Games and People Can Fly have finally released Update 2.2.0 for the sandbox survival title Fortnite, which primarily brings changes to the game’s Battle Royale mode and its map.
