It’s happening: Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time has been confirmed with a brief teaser. Back in the late 90s, Sony’s big franchise was Crash Bandicoot. Those who grew up with the first PlayStation remember the challenging platforming of the original trilogy. Crash has endured into the modern-day with a dedicated fanbase. The series went into a painful hiatus after Mind Over Mutant and a few mobile titles, but was reinvigorated with the N....

Critical Role has announced the start of a new non-profit organization for its charitable work, with its first fundraising campaign partnering with the Native Youth & Culture Fund located at Zuni Pueblo and Cochiti Pueblo. The Critical Role Foundation will select and partner with different non-profit organizations to ensure that select projects work to change the world for better. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, all donations made are 100% tax deductible in the United States, and this looks to be a great way to help make meaningful change where it is most needed....

It’s an inevitable question faced by successful trilogies: What’s next after Volume 3? When the magic and mythos incepted by designers and artists and storytellers fulfills its intended purpose, is it better to go on or move on? Developer Crytek has reached this impasse with Crysis. The future-military sci-fi series was originally conceived as a trilogy when it debuted in 2007. And while it’s since become a major player for publisher EA as a multi-platform first-person shooter, that trilogy concludes this February, the 19th, with the release of Crysis 3....

Cyberpunk 2077 has its fair share of Easter Eggs hiding away in Night City. The team at CD Projekt Red spent years crafting this world, and while populating it they sprinkled familiar references and entirely obscure nods absolutely everywhere, and this Mortal Kombat reference is no exception. Did you know that Mortal Kombat’s Scorpion is hiding away in Night City - kind of? I wouldn’t blame you for being totally unaware, as this little reference is very easy to miss indeed....

CD Projekt Red estimates that Cyberpunk 2077 has sold over 13 million copies, even after taking into account refunds across various platforms. The news came from the company’s latest regulatory announcement, in an effort to relax investors and show that Cyberpunk 2077 is still off to a strong start – at least, as far as revenue is concerned. Pulling in 13 million sales just a few weeks after release puts it in great company, and the studio seems optimistic about its future....

Cyberpunk 2077 has been delayed several times, but developer CD Projekt Red revealed that players should rest easy now that the game’s November 19 release date is pretty much guaranteed. Of course, apart from being one of this year’s highly anticipated games, Cyberpunk 2077 also stands to be the most technologically advanced given CD Projekt Red’s stellar reputation in releasing quality games. Of course, Cyberpunk 2077’s release date couldn’t have come at a better time given the many advancements in gaming technology right now....

That’s right, Apex Legends fans – it looks as though the identity of another upcoming character has been discovered in the game’s files. Who is Nova? We can’t wait to find out. Now, some may tell you that there just aren’t any surprises left in gaming anymore. What with all the leaks we’re subjected to on a daily basis, it’s easy to become desensitized to would-be surprises. In the run-up to the release of a much-anticipated game, fans are forced to do social media gymnastics to avoid all the spoilers (official and otherwise) as the hype train finally pulls into the station....

One of the best aspects of Dauntless is trying to figure out which weapons and gear sets suit you the best. As we know, there are six different types of weapon: Axe, Hammer, Chain Blades, Sword, Ostian Repeaters, and War Pike. Even though there’s a very limited number of different weapon classes (as opposed to the much wider variety offered by, say, Monster Hunter Rise), there are still a lot of gear combinations to choose from that will change the way your Slayer approaches battle....

Earlier this week, Bungie gave Destiny players their first tour of The Reef, the new social space that launches alongside the House of Wolves DLC. While navigating the reef, the developers gave fans quick looks at some of the new gear that will be available with the DLC, and they also revealed how weapon upgrades will work post-update. They also teased some potential new hiding spots for Xur once the House of Wolves releases on May 19th, meaning players will have two HUB areas to check every Friday morning....

Every game is recorded on a match card, requiring seven wins to get loot....

In a shocking twist of events, it appears that Quria has begun corrupting some of Destiny 2’s Expunge missions. The first mission, Expunge: Labyrinth, has received a corrupted variant during Season of the Splicer’s sixth week. Overall, the mission is the same as its non-corrupted variant, although this mission has far more traps and enemies that can give some players trouble. Should you finish the mission, you’ll be able to open a Corrupted Vex Chest by using a Corrupted Key Code—a new key type that can drop from slain combatants....

Although Destiny 2 developer Bungie skipped last week’s This Week At Bungie post, the studio did have something for players as part of Bungie Day. Since the new Moments of Triumph are set to go live on Tuesday, Bungie had to give players some information about how the event will work and what rewards will be available. But, there are some parts of the Destiny 2 Moments of Triumph for Year 2 that will require owning more than just the base game....

A couple weeks ago, Capcom announced Monster Hunter XX for Nintendo Switch in Japan, leaving many gamers in the US wondering if the game will make it stateside. Now, thanks to a new Capcom trademark for Monster Hunter World in the US, it looks like gamers’ desires may be coming true. The trademark was noticed by Nintendo Insider and was filed on June 5th. Considering the timing, many gamers are expecting to see Monster Hunter World officially revealed during E3 next week....

Mass Effect Legendary Edition was announced on N7 Day earlier this month, confirming long-standing rumors that EA and BioWare had plans to release a remastered version of the original Mass Effect trilogy at some point over the next year. The teaser trailer showed some of the fan-favorite companions that players got to know and love over the original trilogy and gave fans a hint at the sort of graphical upgrades they might be able to expect from the remaster....

Much like the next-gen consoles, building a PC or buying upgrade parts for the last four-to-five months has been tiresome for consumers. The Covid-19 pandemic and sheltering-in-place, paired with component shortages and limited supply, has made obtaining any kind of hardware virtually impossible. Despite this, Nvidia marched on with the RTX 3000 series’ launch, and experienced no shortage of controversy as a result. The reason why criticism has been this vocal is because the RTX 3000 series cards are a big jump up from the 2000 series cards, especially in the ray tracing department, which is why demand for these cards has been huge and largely unmet....

The Outer Worlds announced its first DLC, Peril on Gorgon, in July 2020 and it was later released in September. Players could pre-order just Peril on Gorgon, or pay extra to get the full Expansion Pass that included both Peril on Gorgon and Murder on Eridanos. Now that both DLCs have been released, it’s worth noting how many similarities and differences there are between the two. Each has its own unique story, but there’s definitely some overlap to be unpacked....

The new Conan Exiles trailer reveals a survival-sandbox game set in a world of hard choices, plenty of gore and large muscled men with even larger broadswords.

Howard but made known to many by Arnold Schwarzenegger. The trailer showcases several of the features the game will have when it launches on Steam Early Access on January 31....
