For those still on the fence about picking up Ghost of Tsushima, which launches today exclusively for PS4, Sony is doing a little bit of last-second marketing. A new trailer for Ghost of Tsushima was released recently, detailing the open-world action-adventure game’s various customization options. Sony wants to make sure players know that Sucker Punch has put together a robust set of features to enable players to create a unique experience exactly how they want it....

A few months ago, Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered was leaked via a Taiwanese rating board listing. The leak was proven right in just a couple of weeks, and Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered was announced to launch later this year. Today, fans of the popular franchise can finally sit back and relax as the remastered version of the popular action-adventure game has been confirmed to release on October 4 for PC, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One....

A sequel to 2018’s God of War is on the way, with the teaser trailer telling fans only that “Ragnarok is coming.” The Norse apocalypse was already heavily hinted at in the most recent game in the series, where it was prophesized by both Mimir and the Jotunheim mural at the end of the game. The last God of War shifted the setting from Greek mythology to the Midgard of the nine Norse realms....

The sequel to God of War will deal with the Ragnarok prophecy in a unique combination of Norse mythology and the story of the games so far. The game will also very likely deal with a theme that has run through every installment of the series since the second game, which has also featured heavily in the backstory of the franchise. The next God of War will have to confront the cycle of patricide which has run through the series....

Sony Santa Monica’s God of War has taken the PlayStation community by storm, becoming the best-selling PlayStation 4 exclusive of all time shortly after launch. Those who have completed the game’s main story and are looking for a reason to replay the journey of Kratos and Atreus, and thankfully they have a reason to dive back in, as the newest update has added a New Game Plus mode for players....

One of the longest running video game magazines in North America has decided to cease publication after Nintendo announced that it would not be renewing their licensing agreement with publisher Future US. After 24 years and 281 issues, the definitive source for all things Nintendo will soon pass into retro existence with the classic NES games it once featured. By 1988, Nintendo was simply the biggest thing to happen in the gaming world....

While some fans are disappointed that you can’t play as Batman in Gotham Knights, the fact of the matter is that the game’s four playable protagonists are one of its best features. Actually, deciding which character to pick in Gotham Knights quickly becomes one of the game’s toughest challenges. While you can swap characters throughout your Gotham Knights playthrough, it’s not a bad idea to focus on one or two of them at a time....

The Final Fantasy series has given fans 15 main titles (with Final Fantasy 16 already in the works) and plenty of spin-off titles too. Many fans believe the PlayStation 1 era of Final Fantasy games to be the cream of the crop, which could be why the game most considered to be the fan-favorite title falls into this category — Final Fantasy 7. With so many Final Fantasy titles released on the PlayStation 1, there is a myriad of fan-favorite features spanning over the games and one of the most loved features of any RPG is the dungeons that are on offer....

Square Enix’s Final Fantasy series has been a staple of the RPG genre for decades now, and more news about the latest installment, Final Fantasy 15, has been anticipated since Square Enix’s E3 conference offered nothing new about the title. Square Enix released a statement today, however, that indicates fans searching for fresh information can look forward to Gamescom in August to find out more. With only a few more weeks left before Gamescom in Germany, Square Enix has announced its lineup of games for the show, and it is quite a list....

Final Fantasy 15’s previously leaked launch date is now official, confirmed by Square Enix during a special event where it also unveiled it latest “Stand By Me” trailer. Today has been absolute mayhem for the Final Fantasy community, particularly for those excited for Final Fantasy XV. Square Enix held a special event for its upcoming RPG, the first major title in the franchise since Final Fantasy XIV back in 2010 (or maybe it’s 2013 relaunch)....

Final Fantasy 7 has been wowing fans since its debut all the way back in 1997, with the game arguably Final Fantasy’s most iconic and nostalgic; only helped by the recent remake in 2020. For such an iconic game it’s unsurprising to learn that as much as it’s delighted its both fanbase and critics, it’s also garnered contempt. With such an active player base and the next stage of the remake due to drop, a lot of players have headed to Reddit to voice their unpopular opinions, whether that be in its story, overrated characters, or comparison to other less-hyped Final Fantasy titles....

The Nintendo Switch versions of Final Fantasy 7 and Final Fantasy 8 Remastered will be sold together in a new physical edition, but only in select regions. Final Fantasy 7 was once the game that signified the decline of Nintendo and Square Enix’s relationship. The Final Fantasy series only appeared on Nintendo consoles until the release of Final Fantasy 7, when Square jumped ship to the PlayStation, causing a rift that lasted for years....

As a longtime fan of the Yakuza series, I’m obviously very interested in the upcoming Lost Judgment. A sequel to 2018’s Judgment (which released in 2019 for the west), this continuation of detective Yagami Takayuki’s private-eye life has a great opportunity to improve upon the lacking aspects of the original and make a truly exceptional new title. Just what should developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios focus on? I can’t claim to know everything about game development, but here are five things that either annoyed me or dragged down the experience the first time around that could be tweaked in the sequel....

The Xbox Live Gold subscription service, which allows players to play multiplayer games online, finds itself in a strange place at the current moment. With the announcement today that the price of Xbox Live Gold will be going up across the board, there are some questioning the decision, including a former Xbox VP who wonders what the strategy is for the service. Both Sony and Microsoft offer subscription-based services that allow players to access a vault’s worth of titles; PS Now for Sony, and Xbox Game Pass for Microsoft....

Fortnite is by no means a new game, and the Tycoon game type making a splash in the popular title is just one of ways it is constantly reinventing itself. Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 6 is days away, and Epic Games is promising an ambitious solo experience with the Zero Crisis Finale. That said, for some the game still remains the fun, creative third-person shooter it was at the beginning, and Tycoon maps provide a simple grind for players to enjoy....

Fortnite is full of crossover characters, and while its Marvel cameos made up an entire season of content, the battle royale game’s DC offerings have been steadily on the rise. Based on leaks and an official teaser from Epic Games, it seems like a new skin based on the superhero The Flash will be coming to Fortnite as well. With Fortnite Season 5 being focused on a huge assortment of pop culture icons entering the fight via the Zero Point, another high-profile addition like The Flash is hardly surprising....

In a game filled with mysterious occurrences, yet another strange event is happening right now in Fortnite. Players have begun noticing puddles all over the map. The reason these small pools of water have suddenly started appearing and their purpose is, at the moment, a mystery. Whenever something unexplained happens in Fortnite, especially noticeable alterations to the game’s map, it is an indicator that changes are on the horizon, that the developers are teasing new, upcoming content....

The mobile version of Fortnite is currently available on iOS as invite-only, and yet despite this limited availability, the game has successfully risen to the top of the App Store charts around the world. While this may be surprising to some given that the floodgates have not yet fully opened to let players into the game, more impressive is the news that Fortnite iOS has already made millions of dollars....
