While there’s no release window for The Callisto Protocol yet, interest is growing in the debut title from Striking Distance Studios. The sci-fi horror game will be set on the titular moon of Jupiter in a prison colony, and it’s worth noting that development of The Callisto Protocol is being headed up by Glen Schofield, who helped to co-create the popular Dead Space series. Unexpectedly, for a survival-horror set in 2320, The Callisto Protocol is set in the same universe as PUBG....

While gaming fans have recently been privy to The Coalition’s solid HD remaster of the first installment in the story of Marcus Fenix with Gears of War: Ultimate Edition, a variety of other remakes from different companies are on the way. For instance, some developers are delving even further back into their vaults, as Square Enix is set to put out a Final Fantasy 7 remake some time next year, and Capcom has just started work on a fresh version of its survival-horror classic, Resident Evil 2....

Deathloop, the upcoming new IP from Arkane Studios, may just have had its release date leaked, if the recent listing on New Zealand PlayStation Store is any indication. Deathloop is a first-person, action-adventure title, similar in the veins of the studio’s previous endeavors in the immersive sim genre such as Dishonored and Prey. While the game was announced back at Bethesda’s E3 2019 conference, the studio went eerily quiet for a long time before Deathloop had a surprising presence at this year’s PlayStation 5 gaming event....

Thanks to the Halo series, Bungie has garnered a reputation as a developer that knows how to build stellar multiplayer maps.

Many Destiny 2 fans are complaining that the game’s PvP experience is ruined, all thanks to the Lord of Wolves exotic shotgun. The exotic, which was recently re-tuned by the game’s developer Bungie, has resulted in a weapon that has an incredibly fast time to kill, insane range, and generous ammo. And now Bungie has responded to the numerous complaints about the weapon. Responding to a player on the Destiny 2 subreddit who posted saying Lord of Wolves should be disabled because it is so overpowered, Bungie community manager dmg04 said that Bungie is “looking at Lord of Wolves and the recent tuning” and said that when Bungie has more info it will share it with players....

The clock is ticking, with just under a week left for Destiny 2 players to complete select activities, quest steps, and triumphs before they expire.

Bungie and Activision have revealed a mountain of Destiny 2 news today, with one of the most exciting announcements being that the upcoming PC edition of the game will include both 4K resolution support and an uncapped framerate. While console gamers probably didn’t have limitless frame rates on their expectation list, many may have been hoping for a smooth 60 FPS experience.

In less than a week, Destiny 2 will launch Season 7: Season of Opulence for Annual Pass owners to experience as the last major content drop for Year 2. Although Season 7 will likely include plenty of new experiences for players, the main focus of Season of Opulence is likely the Crown of Sorrow raid, which launches just 6 hours after the Season starts.

Destiny developer Bungie announces that Trials of Osiris and Iron Banner will be put on indefinite hold while the studio works to fix the heavy ammo glitch exploit.

With the release date of Monster Hunter Rise drawing nearer than ever, Capcom has recently shared a short clip to demonstrate how the highly-anticipated Buddy Scout system will work within the game’s setting of Kamura Village.

Earlier this week modders discovered a few pieces of on-disc DLC for Capcom’s latest franchise entry, Resident Evil 6.

In order to placate fans’ displeasure, Capcom came out to say that there were some elements that were on the Resident Evil 6 disc, but those were only pieces to a full set....
