Sony is making sure the PlayStation 4 era is going out with a bang, releasing a number of high profile and highly regarded games only a few weeks apart from one another. The most recent title, Ghost of Tsushima, is Sucker Punch Productions swan song for the PS4 era, fitting considering the studio also helped kick off the current console generation with inFAMOUS: Second Son. While Ghost of Tsushima is likely going to be remembered for its lush and gorgeous open world, one of its more defining characteristics is the game’s Photo Mode....

If you’re ready, grab your sword and let’s finish picking up the remaining artifacts....

Sony says that despite the pandemic, the PlayStation 5 is still on track to release this holiday season. The coronavirus pandemic has basically upended the global economy. From China to America to France, supply chains have been disrupted, factories have shut down, and workers have been laid off. Over 3.3 million people filed for unemployment in the US since the pandemic began, and that has economists very worried. It also has companies worried....

Fortunately, FUT gamers can field a dominant team without spending money on packs....

Final Fantasy 15 director Hajime Tabata discusses the development team’s approach to Chapter 13 and why he thinks expanding single player through DLC is a growing trend. Practically since it was released, Final Fantasy 15 has been hit with claims that the title was either unfinished, needed more time for polish, or was the product of multiple different visions. Any who have played the game can see that some things in the game are off, especially in Chapter 13....

Final Fantasy 15 is an unprecedented success for the series, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some familiar faces present - here’s where to find all 7 of its summons. By any measure of the word, Square Enix’s Final Fantasy 15 can finally be called a success after over a decade in development. Final Fantasy 15 has been impressing critics the world over, culminating in a number of high-profile positive reviews for the JRPG....

Final Fantasy Brave Exvius is known to host its fair share of crossover events, including crossovers with other Square Enix franchises like Octopath Traveler, and today the crossovers continue with the gacha-based mobile RPG’s latest Kingdom Hearts event. From now until December 9, Brave Exvius will play host to a collaboration with Kingdom Hearts’ episodic mobile offshoot, Kingdom Hearts Dark Road. At the heart of this crossover is a new dungeon event that lets players uncover the secrets behind Xehanort’s past and what set the young keyblade wielder on the path to becoming the series’ first main antagonist....

Fire Emblem is no longer a niche series. This game franchise has been slowly clawing its way out of obscurity ever since Awakening essentially saved it from dying back in the day, and every release since has only increased in sales until Fire Emblem: Three Houses came along and blew numbers of out the water. But, given how many events, characters, and mechanics are in the game, we don’t blame anyone for missing a few of these more subtle secrets....

Before you buy a game—specifically before you buy one whose title almost doesn’t sound real—it would be nice to see some of the gameplay that you can expect before you spend a significant amount of money on it. Luckily, for the game Is It Wrong To Try To Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon? Infinite Combate that’s exactly what you can expect, thanks to a new video. The game is based on the anime and manga series Is It Wrong To Try To Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon?...

As a player makes their way through Fortnite’s Chapter 2 Season 4 Battle Pass, they will unlock unique skins modeled after a variety of Marvel characters, such as Thor, Groot, and Storm. Additionally, each of these new skins has a set of associated Awakening Challenges that can be completed in order to obtain special built-in emotes in Fortnite. That is not the end of the story with the Season 4 cosmetics, though, as indeed there are three foil styles (Silver, Gold, and Holographic) that be unlocked for each one of these Marvel skins....

Firefly Jars have been added to Fortnite this week. Here’s where to find them, how to fill them, and most important of all, how to use them. Last week in Fortnite was all about the start of Chapter 2: Season 3. That new beginning was all about water. Aquaman, Loot Sharks, The Fortilla. Suffice to say the new season looks very different from the one it has left behind. In fact, it looks different from any Fortnite season we have seen to date....

Only today, a new Fortnite leaked revealed some new skins Epic Games has planned to add to the game, including a couple of DC Comics themed ones, which will surely make for a nice change of pace considering Season 4 has been centered around Marvel superheroes and villains. However, it’s already been confirmed that Season 4 won’t be the last Fortnite/Marvel crossover, with Epic’s creative director previously stating that the two companies already have a long partnership ahead of them....

Ever since the Battle Royale portion of the game launched, Epic has maintained a policy of keeping the future of Fortnite an exciting topic for both fans and non-fans alike. Season four in particular gave fans plenty of fuel for discussion as clues and red-herrings left by Epic were discovered and picked apart. The lead up to season five hasn’t been quite so dramatic, but that hasn’t kept avid fans from trying to dig up everything they can on what’s coming to Fortnite in the near-future....

Fans of Five Nights at Freddy’s were treated to an unpleasant surprise by the toymaker Funko last week, when images of the characters for Security Breach were tweeted out for the world to see. Perhaps even more disappointing than potential spoilers is the fact that this is the second time that Funko leaked information about the game. Fans of the series have been waiting anxiously for the next installment to be released....

When Dragon Age: Inquisition, the third entry in the wildly popular Dragon Age series, was announced, publisher EA assured fans that the game would release on both current gen and next gen systems. While the game ultimately released on PC, Xbox One, PS4, PS3, and Xbox 360, developer BioWare has made the controversial decision to abandon the last gen versions of Dragon Age: Inquisition moving forward. BioWare has more DLC in the pipeline for the popular game, but the developer has decided that it simply isn’t viable to continue to release expansions for the last gen ports of the title....

GPU manufacturer Nvidia earlier said that it would not address the crypto mining performance of GPUs sold before the release of the RTX 3060. However, it appears that the manufacturer may just ramp up on restrictions for future purchases. However, according to a new report by HKEPC (thanks PCGamesn), Nvidia will be refreshing the RTX 3060 supply with a GA106-302 codename rather than the original GA106-300. A new PCI Device ID attached means that the older drivers would become obsolete for anyone who purchases the new one....
