One of the most underdeveloped aspects of Cyberpunk 2077 is its melee combat mechanic. There are so many things that were shown in the game’s various trailers prior to its release that didn’t make it to the actual game, including several melee mechanics. Be that as it may, Cyberpunk 2077 does contain a couple of very decent melee weapons that players can use to tackle the various enemies they’ll encounter in and around Night City....
A leaked video confirms that the original PlayStation 2 Dark Cloud game is making its way to the PlayStation 4 via the system’s new PS2 emulation functionality.

Sony fans have been speculating about what to expect from the Saturday morning keynote address these past few weeks, but it looks like one surprise has leaked ahead of time....
Naruto is a classic shonen manga/anime that will likely be remembered for years to come. When we first meet Naruto, he is an overzealous, obnoxious brat who could do little to back up the big game he always talked. It’s easy to dislike Naruto in the beginning, just as the inhabitants of the Hidden Leaf Village did. However, as the series goes on we see Naruto mature into an honorable loving man, and finally into a hero....
Dead by Daylight, the online survival horror game where four players must work together to escape from one player controlling a serial killer, recently got a mobile version. Aside from offering pretty much everything the original game has, albeit in a more bite-sized form, this version also has a number of unique features to call its own. Namely, these features include bots to fill in for any absent human players, the Bloodmarket that allows players to share items between different characters, a free ticket system that lets players temporarily unlock a new character to test them out, and Super Mystery Boxes, which are basically lootboxes, providing the player with random rewards at the cost of Bloodpoints, the in-game currency....

The PlayStation Showcase event on Wednesday gave us a lot to chew on, not the least of which was the reveal for Demon’s Souls on the PS5. When the pre-order sale launched, players found that the store briefly listed a new weapon as a bonus before being taken down. Unfortunately, the pre-order for the game is going as smooth and organized as the console’s pre-order—which is to say that it appears as though some mistakes were made....
Since the House of Wolves launch it seems that Destiny players have a renewed vigor thanks to new content. However, that excitement didn’t carry over into last weekend, when Xur arrived with not a single new exotic armor piece or weapon in his selection. The good news was he had an exotic engram, so plenty of Destiny players did end up getting one of the new exotic helmets, which look quite cool....
As most players had hoped, the latest season in Destiny 2 has managed to revive the exotic weekend merchant known as Xur. Not only has the Season of the Drifter updated his loot pool to include Forsaken exotics, but also Bungie is now placing greater importance on visiting him each and every week with a new quest type. Starting today, players can visit Xur to start the Invitations of the Nine questline....
The working theory concerning ability cooldowns in Destiny 2 up until now has been that the charge rate of supers, grenades, melee, and class abilities are standardized for every player. That is, every ability has a set cooldown timer that will not be affected by gear or any other item. But some new screenshots of Destiny 2 show that might not the case. These screenshots clearly show the bottom perk on armor can increase the recharge of abilities in the game....
Heads up to all the Destiny 2 collectors out there—Loot Crate and Bungie are teaming up to offer a limited edition Destiny 2 Loot Crate this coming spring. As is the case with every offering from Loot Crate, the exact items within will remain a mystery, but the company has teased that the crate will include an exclusive figure, a hoodie, apparel, and other collectibles. Loot Crate says the contents of the box are being licensed and co-developed with Bungie, and that it will include collectibles from the game’s upcoming expansions....
The loot cave is back. One Destiny 2 player has discovered an area that functions almost exactly like the loot cave from Destiny 1, and coincidentally it is also in the Cosmodrome patrol area. Reddit user imMilk13 shared their discovery on the Raid Secrets subreddit, which focuses on Destiny 2 discoveries that are either spoiler-heavy or highlight bug/glitches in the game. In this case, there is no bug, but some Destiny 2 purists might scoff at the sharing of a new loot cave....
Without a doubt, Destiny 2 fans rejoiced when they learned that the forthcoming science fiction shooter’s release date was bumped up two days from September 8, 2017 to September 6, 2017, but even though the change means that the game will be out sooner, there were still many Guardians wondering why Bungie decided to launch it a little earlier. Interestingly enough, the developer recently explained the reason behind its decision sell the title to the masses sooner than it initially planned is to reduce stress on the servers....
This week, Destiny 2 fans were treated to a bevy of PvP content, including a first look at one of its new maps, Vostok, which takes place on Felwinter Peak. In addition to revealing the new mountaintop battleground, the preview footage included 15 minutes of additional gameplay to sift through and pick out some notable points of interest. Here’s what we spotted. Mantle Up Ledges Destiny 2 will be adding a new mantle mechanic, which triggers an animation if the player falls just short of a jump near the edge of a platform, and pulls them up onto that ledge....
Destiny 2’s Sentinel subclass for Titans is the focus of today’s developer preview video. Once again IGN has the exclusive hosting privileges, but it’s Bungie’s Senior Sandbox Designer Claude Jerome and Senior Effects Artist David Samuel who lead today’s coverage. The video focuses on what brings the Sentinel sub-class to life in Destiny 2. Players may seen what the shield-toting Guardian version of Captain America can do in action in early gameplay footage, but now Bungie is explaining what makes the subclass tick....
This article contains spoilers for Captain America: Civil War Even after half of all living things are snapped out of and back into existence, the Marvel Cinematic Universe can’t seem to escape the ramifications of Captain America: Civil War and the Sokovia Accords. She-Hulk: Attorney at Law may have shown us that the Accords have been repealed in a post-blip world, but that doesn’t mean that we’re through seeing the effects of them on the geopolitical sphere of the MCU....
Castlevania is getting a brand new game in the series for the first time in a long time, but not quite in the traditional sense. A new Castlevania game is headed to mobile, and it looks and sounds pretty darn cool. As far as core Castlevania experiences go, the games have been few and far between lately. The heyday of Castlevania was probably during the handheld era with the Gameboy Advance and Nintendo DS, along with the NES and Super Nintendo era....
The New York Subliners have had a disappointing start to their inaugural Call of Duty League season. Many thought New York would be one of the better teams coming into the 2020 season, but the Subliners have fallen off the rails early and failed to live up to those high expectations. Despite the talented roster in New York, something hasn’t been working as they find themselves at the bottom of the standings after three events (and opening weekend)....

It’s looking like 2020 will be a very good year for people who are into statues of giant fighting robots. First, a massive statue of a Evangelion from the acclaimed anime Neon Genesis Evangelion opened in Kyoto. Now, it’s been announced that a life-sized, 59 foot tall, Gundam statue will be built in Shanghai, China. Gundam is a beloved anime franchise based around giant fighting robots, or mech suits.

Whether you’re completely new to the series or just a little bit rusty, here’s how to hit the ground running in Sid Meier’s Civilization VI. Over the past twenty-five years, Sid Meier’s Civilization has become one of the most well-loved series in all of gaming, and for good reason. These games can easily swallow up an evening, but they can be rather intimidating if you’re starting afresh. Like its predecessors, this year’s Civilization 6 is a very complicated game — even experts will have to spend some time getting to grips with the new implementation of religion, and the newly introduced districts mechanic....
