Final Fantasy 7 Remake delivered on all that it promised, providing an amazingly revamped yet still quite nostalgic experience. Even though the game just released last Friday, some hardcore gamers have already beaten the new Final Fantasy and are looking for an option for new game plus. But is there a new game plus? The short answer is yes, Final Fantasy 7 Remake has a new game plus. The long answer is not in the traditional sense, as the new game plus in this game is split into two separate features, the hard mode and the chapter select....

It’s been a while since Spellbreak first came to the market. Spellbreak is a free battle royale game that made its appearance in the Epic Games Store last year in September.

Season 9 of Epic’s wildly popular Battle Royale game, Fortnite, arrived last month and as many expected, the change in season also triggered a lot of in-game changes.

Popular Battle Royale game Fortnite is well known the for crazy things that often take place in its game world. About a week ago, a mysterious purple cube appeared in Paradise Realms following Update 5.3 of the game, and since then, players have carefully been monitoring the movements of the cube.

Playground Games’ open-world racer Forza Horizon 4 is known for its array of sleek, speedy cars and off-roading beasts. With such a huge lineup of pricey vehicles, houses, and other goodies to purchase, it can be tough to amass a decent amount of CR for long. Thankfully, the diversity of cars in the game extends to its price range, and a number of them can be had for quite cheap. While most of the cheaper cars shouldn’t be expected to win you many races with their default build, some can be surprisingly good performance-wise....

If you’re old enough to remember MySpace, you probably remember a guy named Tom. Automatically added to everybody’s Friends List, MySpace president Tom Anderson quickly became the most popular man in the world, with millions of friends spread across the globe. However, Anderson didn’t create the monolithic MySpace by himself. In fact, he had an important co-founder – Chris DeWolfe, who would go on to become MySpace’s CEO during its heyday....

The voice of Swain from League of Legends has been uncovered, and it is a notable Game of Thrones actor. The Grand General of Noxus was voiced by longtime actor James Faulkner. Faulkner is perhaps best recognized currently as Randyll Tarly from HBO’s Game of Thrones. League of Legends, the long-running and massively popular MOBA, is made by game company Riot Games. Riot traditionally does not credit voice actors for their work publicly, and instead only acknowledges the talent after the actors themselves reveal their work....

Metal Gear has long been setting the benchmark for storytelling in video games, a trend that looks to be continuing with Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain, if its glowing reviews are any indication. This penchant for stories dates all the way back to the franchise’s 8-bit origins, and has continued to evolve over the years. However, with a saga spanning multiple games, consoles, and literal decades, things tend to get a little twisted and convoluted along the way....

During Sony’s PlayStation 5 gameplay reveal event on Thursday, the studio tried to streamline an E3-style presentation into a quick series of gameplay trailers. While the focus was no doubt put on the games, a few of the bigger reveals were preceded by introductions from the associated developer or a key figure at Sony. These intros typically built excitement for the following reveal, like Shuhei Yoshida calling the Demon’s Souls remake a product dear to his heart, but they also have inspired a weird conspiracy theory among gamers....

It’s no secret that gaming films have been some of the biggest duds over the years. Heck, we’ve gone so far as to create a list of the five worst gaming films of all time, which was a gargantuan task in and of itself given the fact that there are quite a few. With that said, some of the most poorly received (if not the most poorly received) game-related films have come from director Uwe Boll....

The Coalition has given fans a new tease on twitter of the addition of Dave Bautista in Gears 5 with a behind-the-scenes video and interview with the actor/wrestler. The inclusion of Bautista in some way is one fans have been clamoring for since the release of the original Gears of War on the Xbox 360 in 2006, thanks to the actor’s resemblance of the game’s main character, Marcus Fenix. While fans have echoed the sentiment for a Gears of War movie starring the actor over the years, his inclusion in Gears 5 seems to be the next best thing....

On Twitter, Cliff Bleszinski announced that he is working on a new comic book IP with writer Alex de Capi and artist Sandy Jarrell. For context, Bleszinski was the designer of the first three Gears of War games. He also founded the studio Boss Key Productions with Arjan Brussee. They released two games. The first was LawBreakers in 2017 and the second was Radical Heights in 2018. It’s unclear what studio this new game will be at....

If fans have followed TheGamer’s Genshin Impact “makes no sense” series, then they’ve probably been anticipating a piece on the game’s most nonsensical character. Anyone who has played the hugely popular RPG for even an hour likely has strong feelings about Mondstadt’s lustful librarian Lisa. Players may find themselves wincing at her paltry damage and over-the-top voice lines. In contrast, others adore her role as the goddess of anime fan-service delivery....

Genshin Impact has been all the rage since it laucnhed, and it seems that players just can’t get enough of the game. A bustling online community has now formed around the game filled with player tips, co-op groups, and of course, tons of memes. From making fun of Paimon to trying to convince players that Amber is a viable party member, just about every character in the game has been brought up in a meme of some sort....
