However, one element making a return to the sequel is Resident Evil 7’s protagonist, Ethan Winters. It’s no secret that Ethan Winters will be making his return as the protagonist for Resident Evil Village to find his kidnapped daughter....

YouTube channel Links-Tech dismantles what is allegedly the unannounced PlayStation 4 Slim console, revealing some new information on the device in the process. Even though Sony has yet to officially announce the device, there is simply too much evidence to deny it: PlayStation 4 Slim exists. There has been plenty of footage on the Internet of people that have gotten their hands on a PS4 Slim, with some examining the slightly redesigned controller, and others showing off the console in unboxing videos....

A wave was created in the world of online multiplayer games when Respawn Entertainment first released Titanfall back in 2014. You might be surprised to learn that the studio had originally planned on Titanfall having a single-player campaign though, and believe it or not, footage of that scrapped campaign has just surfaced. Jason McCord, Design Director at Respawn, recently shared some footage from a lost Titanfall single-player demo on his Twitter account....

When it comes to Final Fantasy 14’s new content, I’m not a hard person to please. I realize not every new addition has to be for me, and there’s plenty else to do if I’m not feeling the latest dungeon, relic weapon update, or whatever it may be. If you bring up Blitzball though, my eyes roll all the way out of my head and I’ll muster my loudest, most obnoxious sigh....

Many story details about the upcoming Resident Evil Village are still unclear. Who and what is the giant vampire woman, Lady Dimitrescu? Where is the game taking place, and why did Ethan Winters need to go there? And finally, the question that fans have been asking since the game’s reveal, why did the original series protagonist Chris Redfield invade Ethan’s home to seemingly steal his child and shoot his wife?...

Civilization 6 modder Gedemon releases a massive Earth map mod that will cripple even the most high-end PC rigs, resulting in turns that reach 2 minutes or more. Although the Civilization series is built to mimic the development of cultures and cities on a small scale, most gamers are acutely aware of its shortcomings in the realism department. After all, it’s a video game and no amount of graphics or systems can overcome that fact....

Behavior Interactive continued to celebrate its fifth year of Dead by Daylight with an interesting list of in-game statistics, including who the most played Survivors and Killers are, the perks they most often use, and much more. Claudette Morel comes in as the number one most used Survivor during that time, followed by Meg Thomas and Feng Min. This should come as little surprise, as Claudette is one of the free Survivors unlocked with the base version of the game, she blends easily into most maps, and she posseses the Self-Care perk, which at one time was dominant in the meta and still remains an attractive perk choice for new players....

Command and Conquer Remastered Collection makes some major changes to Westwood Studios’ classic real-time strategy games, including adding 4K graphics and updated UIs. While these updates will certainly please many fans, certain players will be more interested to know about the gameplay changes that have been made by the remaster. Specifically, some fans will be curious if it is possible to attack-move in Command and Conquer Remastered, and this guide looks to shine some light on the matter....

The next-gen versions of Control: Ultimate Edition have been pushed back, as Remedy Entertainment has announced that the PS5 and Xbox Series X ports have been delayed to 2021. Control: Ultimate Edition contains the base game and its DLC, which includes a storyline with Alan Wake. This version of the game was a source of controversy for developer Remedy Entertainment, when it was revealed that fans wouldn’t get the “free” PS5 and Xbox Series X upgraded versions without buying the Ultimate Edition....

Cyberpunk 2077 is only about a week away and fans are incredibly excited to get their hands on the game at long last. Anticipation for Cyberpunk 2077 has been building for years and years after the game’s numerous delays, making it undoubtedly one of the biggest new game releases for December 2020. Though, as with nearly every major AAA release today, players won’t be able to hop into Cyberpunk 2077 right when they finish installing the game....

Cyberpunk 2077 quest director Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz reveals how the decisions that players make with character creation will affect gameplay and their character’s skills. The developer also shares more information about the character “lifepaths,” which are origin stories that have different starting locations. In a video posted to the official Cyberpunk 2077 Twitter page, Tomaszkiewicz explained that character skills don’t just affect how a player can take down an enemy. Players can “use these skills to discover different paths through the levels, to discover different options in quests,” said the developer....

Since it launched at the beginning of December, the highly anticipated open-world RPG, Cyberpunk 2077, has had no shortage of bugs and glitches. While CD Projekt RED continues to work to iron out some of the game’s biggest issues, it hasn’t prevented players from creating montages of the strange and sometimes hilarious glitches and bugs that appear during play sessions. While most of these will likely be patched out with future updates, there’s one glitch in particular that player may want to stick around....

Cyberpunk 2077 has officially returned to the PS Store, but Sony continues to recommend you don’t play it on a base PS4. The saga is finally over. Well, sort of. After a six-month absence, Sony has deemed Cyberpunk 2077 in a worthy enough state to once again grace the PlayStation store. Cyberpunk’s return was officially announced on Twitter this morning, but there’s an added caveat for anyone thinking of firing up their console and buying it as soon as they possibly can....

It would appear that everything Cyberpunk related is not having any luck in meeting deadlines this year. The tabletop RPG prequel to Cyberpunk 2077, Cyberpunk Red, also received a crushing delay over the summer, but developers R.Talsorian Games have finally announced its completed manuscript. Posting on its website, R.Talsorian Games provided an update on Cyberpunk Red’s progress, by posting a mock diagnostic run which confirmed that the game’s design, playtesting, writing, art, editing and layout were 100% complete....

From Software’s games are infamous for many things. One of these is a very complicated side quest system. In Dark Souls 3 players have to complete several tasks and talk to the NPCs in specific places to progress their quests. And there are events throughout the game which can lock you out of certain side quests. Dark Souls 3 continued this tradition. It has some very complicated questlines, even by FromSoftware standards....

An intrepid Twitch streamer completes Dark Souls without taking any damage throughout the entire playthrough, becoming the first player to ever do so. Dark Souls is known as one of the more challenging games out on the market, and more than four years after its release the title is still making headlines for its difficulty. Before today, it looks like no player has ever beaten Dark Souls without their player taking a single hit, an event which will occur to most players within minutes of starting the game, and one which will recur many times throughout a normal playthrough....

Steam remains a dominant force on PC, being the primary digital distribution services for games. Some of the big factors of its popularity are the annual sales events, which typically revolve around a particular theme as well as tradeable cards alongside massive discounts for most video games. Valve traditionally keeps the sale dates under wraps for as long as it can, but just like it has in years past, the remaining sale event dates have leaked out online....

You can already play Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing In Disguise on Nintendo Switch, but it sounds like it should head to PC via Steam this year.
