Former Xbox Live manager Dan McCulloch announces that he has officially joined the Skate 4 development team. EA confirmed that a new Skate game is in development last month, after years of demands from fans on social media for the company to make a new one. In a tweet today, Xbox veteran Dan McCulloch confirmed that he has now joined the Skate 4 development team as a studio general manager. McCulloch said that he has been a fan of the Skate series “for over a decade” and is “honored to be part of that amazing community....

Since launching Fortnite last summer, Epic Games has made a reputation for itself by staying in constant communication with its fans. This has not only helped player engagement, but it has also ensured that Fortnite and the wildly popular Battle Royale mode continue to evolve and improve. While the game still has a few minor issues to work out such as weapon accuracy, one of the bigger pain points for console games is finally getting a resolution....

We are now on day seven of the Epic versus Apple trial that will determine the fate of mobile gaming as we know it. On one side, Epic argues that Apple is a de-facto monopoly that uses its power to extract wealth from developers and stifle competition. On the Apple side, it says that none of that is true and it’s just following the same business model as digital sales platforms everywhere....

Many exciting additions to Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 2 have been leaked online, including Fortnite helicopters confirmed in the newest trailer, though those are now officially in the game. Another leak hit Twitter yesterday, sharing some other new and exciting additions to the hit Battle Royale game: eleven new collectable skins. Skins have been a massive part of Fortnite for as long as the game has been around. From Harley Quinn to Deadpool, and even a skin of Fortnite pro Ninja, there are tons of collectable skins that help players customize their characters....

One of the reasons Epic Games’ battle royale Fortnite has become as big as it has in recent years is thanks to the dedicated community of streamers and content creators who focus all of their energy on playing the game. Arguably the most notable name among them is Tyler “Ninja” Blevins, who received his own Fortnite character skin as part of the game’s “Icon Series.” Today, Australian streamer Kathleen “Loserfruit” Belsten joined him in this club of icons with her own skin, bag, pickaxe, and emote becoming available in the shop....

Halloween is coming soon, and many gamers are celebrating the season by playing the various horror games available to them. While there are many popular and well made horror games out there, some gamers can’t afford too many games at this time. Those looking for a scare while staying on a small budget can play these games on Steam for free. While some of these games have paid DLC for additional content, the main story of the games can still be experienced without any sort of charge....

Last weekend saw the launch of Friday the 13th: The Game, following a lengthy delay beyond its planned 2016 release date. Scores of players are already living out their horror movie fantasies online, and as a result, an exclusive skin designed by special effects legend Tom Savini is become a highly sought after item. Savini’s skin was unveiled ahead of the game’s launch, and covers Jason Voorhees in battle scars and flames, and replaces his signature machete with a trident....

Game of Thrones’ Jamie Lannister, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, deftly avoided answering whether he is in line to play The Last Of Us’ Joel Miller during a recent “Ask Me Anything” session on Reddit. When asked by a fan whether he would be bringing Joel Miller to life in the HBO adaptation of the popular PlayStation video game, The Last of Us, Coster-Waldau simply informed fans how he has recently purchased a copy of The Last of Us Part 2, noting how it’s a “great game....

Last month marked the 10th anniversary of the Game of Thrones series premiere: a show that changed the face of television as profoundly as The Sopranos, The Wire, Mad Men, Sex and the City, or any other series that advanced the notion of what kind of entertainment television could deliver. While any series of its scope and stature is the offspring of literally hundreds of creators–from showrunners David Benioff and D....

Microsoft continues to prove just how dedicated it is to backward compatibility. The publisher just announced today that Game Pass Ultimate subscribers will now have access to 16 Xbox and Xbox 360 games on Xbox Cloud, letting them play classic games on their phones. “We’ve listened to the feedback, going all the way back to our earliest cloud gaming preview,” writes Xbox Wire’s Will Tuttle, “and making games from previous generations available on mobile devices has been one of the most requested features by the community....

The numbers are in, and it’s official: Evolve is a hit. Turtle Rock Studios’ asymmetric multiplayer shooter, which pits a team of four “hunters” against one powerful, nightmarish monster, launched last week to overwhelmingly positive reviews. For now, gamers seem to agree with critics; while some people are still concerned about the game’s long-term potential, Evolve is currently the hottest thing in video games, and Turtle Rock has the statistics to prove it....

A few weeks back, gamescom officials made the announcement that a digital event would be happening to supplement the lack of a physical one. With the coronavirus pandemic still an ongoing problem, no one was sure if a social gathering would be possible. With the German government now banning all major events nationwide, it’s pretty clear that gamescom will not be happening. In a post on Twitter, officials stated that plans for gamescom 2020 have been shuttered....

Most publishers deny Africa from having game servers but release statements condemning racism and promoting equality. It seems like black lives matter, but not enough to get the same services as the rest of the world. The tragic death of George Floyd has ignited a movement to end racism and promote inclusivity. Companies that previously sat on the fence have been forced to take action and prove they are progressive and are moving with the times....

Once Mihoyo’s next Genshin Impact update is live, events that do not require challenging Ley Lines or Domains will not consume your original Resin. This has already been partially implemented in Genshin Impact in version 1.2 for some events, but not the first few released. In the meteor event of 1.2, players did have to challenge Ley Line Outcrops to complete some goals, so the wording makes it sound like this may still be a possibility in the future for some events....

Ghost Recon: Wildlands is another installment in the ongoing Tom Clancy franchise, which allows players to jump into the shoes of a professional ghost operative working in Bolivia. Like many other Ubisoft sandboxes, the game’s expansive map is packed with side quests and collectibles. The game provides hours of content for fans of third-person, open-world shooters. Wildlands continues to receive updates, including a recent DLC featuring Jon Bernthal from The Punisher....

After months of teasing, Ubisoft is almost ready to add AI teammates to its open-world shooter Ghost Recon Breakpoint. One of the most requested features by fans, the recent coronavirus pandemic had pushed back plans for updates to the game after work-from-home restrictions were put in place. The update was originally planned to be a part of the 2.0.5 patch that was scheduled for a June release. With the scope of the update having expanded, the addition of AI will be rolled into the 2....

This year is shaping up to be a great year for gaming, as the PS5 and Xbox Series X enter their first full year. There are many games that can be called the most anticipated games of 2021, and among those for many is the upcoming God of War Ragnarok sequel. Not much is known, but there’s a lot to build off of from the last game. It’s uncertain how many characters fit in, how the battle with Thor will go, how Atreus’ role of Loki will play out, and more....

In order to avoid litigation, Warner Bros. and Legendary have come together in order to forge a new agreement over the release of monster crossover film Godzilla Vs. Kong. The two parties started up a new negotiation shortly after Warner Bros. announced that all its films would be headed to HBO Max in 2021, a move that surprised Legendary and left them feeling a bit shortchanged. Now, however, the two parties have announced that the film will be released to theaters and HBO Max a bit earlier than expected, and have provided a small teaser for fans in the meantime....

The countdown to Gears of War 3 has less than three weeks left on the ticker (no not that kind of Ticker) and leading up to the release, Epic Games has released one of the most impressive pre-rendered trailers to date. The success of the Gears of War franchise started out strong with the oft-revered “Mad World” trailer and the studio’s final piece of marketing, entitled “Dust to Dust” manages to capture the same emotional complexity - but with a much larger scale that stands in contrast to the series’ roots....
