Award-winning tabletop game Tsuro: The Game of the Path is coming to Oculus Quest devices on October 23, 2020. This is a digital adaptation of one of the most popular tabletop games ever made, being brought to VR by Thunderbox Entertainment, whose mission it is to transport the best board games in the world to VR and mobile. “What we do is a bit like the scene in Tron where Jeff Bridges gets zapped into a computer… but with less laser pain and more board game fun!...

Camila Cabello’s Cinderella is the most ridiculous movie of 2021, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Entering this movie, with its cast of triple (or at least double) threats, it can be easy to let assumptions get the best of you. Cabello is an extremely talented singer, so you can assume there’s going to be some tunes. Billy Porter is fabulous, so you can assume he will continue to be so as this adaptation’s incarnation of the fairy godparent....

There’s a couple things that make a good Star Wars game hard to develop. One of them is mastering lightsaber combat and making it feel both satisfying and realistic. Motion controls keep coming back as a way to emulate lightsabers, and things are steadily improving in that area. However, motion controls aren’t always great for the other aspect of playing as a Jedi: using the Force. It’s easy to swing a motion controller like a sword, but doing very specific hand gestures to use Force techniques isn’t always compelling....

A story trailer for upcoming action-horror game Control released yesterday and delivered some truly unsettling and nightmarish imagery. While touching on some broad story elements of the game, the trailer can be better described as a cinematic mood board for the game. If weird fiction is your jam, there’s a lot to look forward to in Control. From the developers of Alan Wake, Remedy Entertainment began development on this creepy horror-scifi before the release of their last game, Quantum Break, over 3 years ago....

ReBoot is the KING of 90s shows. No ifs, ands, or buts. The Canadian made CGI show about the inside of a computer (and those who either want to protect or control it) was magnificent and dazzled viewers of all ages. Thanks to an interesting plot that evolved and changed, a diverse cast of characters to love or hate, amazing voice talent, and a team that really cared about the story they were telling....

Night City is the logical conclusion of a survival of the fittest mentality. Those who go for an all offense and no defense strategy are likely to meet an early end in Cyberpunk 2077. Dipping into the body attribute is highly recommended for everyone, be it a rogue with a katana, a hacker with a laptop, or a sniper with a rifle. It’s fun to imagine staying permanently out of sight and out of mind, but the reality is that V is going to be in situations where discretion is not an option and living to see tomorrow means simply being tough in desperate situations....

Cyberpunk 2077 is a game that many in the gaming community have been waiting years for. Initially announced back in May of 2012 and finally shown off at E3 2018, it’s almost hard for some to believe that Cyberpunk 2077 is just over two weeks away from releasing. Sadly, next-gen ports of the game will not be released on the game’s release date, but it seems now that CD Projekt Red has a way for players to play on next-gen without having to restart their progress....

Cyberpunk 2077’s world may not have lived up to many fans’ expectations, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing to be found in Night City. Fans looking hard enough can find Death Stranding creator Hideo Kojima hanging out in a bar, and Elon Musk sort of makes an appearance as a background character. Little Easter eggs like these are a treat for fans to discover, and it looks like Cyberpunk 2077 also includes a reference to the TV series Mythbusters....

Looking to save Takemura in Cyberpunk 2077? Here’s a guide so you can do exactly that. In the mission Search and Destroy, you have the opportunity to save Takemura, though it’s not obvious where he is or that it’s even an option. Since the loyal Arasaka bodyguard would do the same for you, here’s how to pull him out of the shit and what changes if you do. Cyberpunk 2077 - Save Takemura Before this mission kicks off, your safehouse is attacked by Arasaka goons....

It’s a good time to be a Critter, as officially-endorsed Critical Role products are all over the place. The latest of these is a Wizards of the Coast-printed Dungeons & Dragons book called the Explorer’s Guide to Wildemount. The book acts as a guide to Dungeon Masters wanting to design adventures in the world of Critical Role’s second season. With that comes a list of new magic items that are unique to Wildemount....

Danny Trejo just got Animal Crossing: New Horizons and he’s looking to share his Dodo code. Man, 2020 sure is throwing us a lot of curveballs. First, there’s a global pandemic that’s forced us all to stay inside, and then Animal Crossing: New Horizons turns out to be the perfect game to keep everyone feeling connected. Even Hollywood tough guys like Danny Trejo. You might recognize Trejo from such films as Machete, L....

One of the most popular and withstanding gaming franchises out there, Mario games tend to be joyful adventures that fill us with a sense of adventure and challenge. Since first coming out in the mid-80s we’ve seen Mario have his fair share of adventures, and the cast around him expand greatly. There are plenty of sequels and spin-offs in the Mario universe, and they’re all pretty upbeat and generally fun. For the most part....

Fans of Hidetaka Miyazaki’s crushingly-difficult games have been pretty satisfied over the past few years. Dark Souls II premiered in 2014, spiritual successor Bloodborne appeared this year, and the fourth title in the Souls series, Dark Souls III, is planned for release in early 2016. However, aside from some gameplay and cinematics shown during E3 2015, not much has been revealed about the game. In a new interview with Game Informer, Hidetaka Miyazaki opened up about Dark Souls III....

This week, developer Phoenix Labs officially launched Dauntless, the free-to-player monster hunting adventure game. In true Mon-Hun fashion, Dauntless offers players a vast set of systems to learn and tons of different ways to customize their character. However, some of the coolest looking skins and customization items in Dauntless require Platinum, which is the game’s paid currency. In order to acquire Platinum, as with other paid currencies in free-to-play games (V-Bucks in Fortnite or Silver in Destiny 2), players will need to convert real money into Platinum....

For a time, it felt like Days Gone was a game that would never actually come out. There have been a few different delays, and it didn’t receive an on-stage demo during PlayStation’s E3 2018 press conference. However, we now have a solid date for the undead survival game, and Creative Director John Garvin is finally letting loose some details about what fans should expect from the “freaker” enemies in-game....

The first major DLC for Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot features Beerus and and Super Saiyan God Goku. We know this because Bandai Namco showed official in-game footage of the two facing off. The very nature of the fight implies that the “Battle of the Gods” storyline will play out in some form. That in turn heavily implies that the Kakarot DLC plan is to get into the events of Dragon Ball Super....

Despite a decent portion of favorable reviews ahead of its launch last year, it seems as if the release of the survival-horror slash beat-em-up title starring the protagonist Frank West, Dead Rising 4, has failed to meet its publisher and developer Capcom’s sales expectations. This news comes following the company’s recent earnings report in which it has proclaimed that the newest entry in the zombie series for Xbox One and PC “underperformed....

Destiny remains to be a contentious subject amongst gamers. While many fans consider the action-RPG to be an exercise in futile repetition – get this gun, shoot that alien, grab that gear, rinse and repeat – there are a lot of dedicated Destiny players who would argue differently. As a matter of fact, the title’s gameplay doesn’t seem to be slowing would-be Guardians from enjoying it on an almost daily basis, especially as they hone their skills for the upcoming The Taken King expansion....

Guardians around the globe are certainly rejoicing, as the countdown for the official release of Destiny: The Taken King is almost over. With Year 1 of Bungie’s popular action-RPG winding down, the studio is building as much hype as possible in order to ensure that Destiny: The Taken King not only appeases fans and critics alike, but is also a financial success once the game’s launch day finally arrives. With two of three Year 2 streams having revealed tons of new gameplay details for The Taken King, and with Bungie dominating social media, it’s apparent the developers have put a lot of work into proving haters of the sci-fi shooter wrong, as well as winning back gamers who have previously turned their back on the title....

We have the early scoop on where to find the vendor Xur and what exotic armor and weapons he has available to Destiny players for the weekend of September 16th. This is it. The last Xur appearance before the release of Destiny: Rise of Iron. For a while now Xur has been an irrelevant part of the Destiny cycle - at least to those veteran players that have already collected every exotic....
