Ubisoft quietly held a lengthy and informative Beyond Good & Evil 2 livestream earlier today. We’ve seen Beyond Good & Evil 2 in action before, but this was our first proper look at some of its most interesting systems, starting with its drop-in co-op. Brunier and Morel also discussed Beyond Good & Evil 2’s crew recruitment system, which sounds similar to the private armies in Metal Gear Solid 5 . Finally, we got a closer look at the augments system that ties into Beyond Good & Evil 2’s third-pe

A large Monster Hunter: World expansion called Iceborne is coming in autumn 2019 (on console, with the PC release coming later), Capcom announced today. For the uninitiated: G rank is basically Monster Hunter’s ultimate endgame, and the gap between high rank and G rank is comparable to the difference between low rank and high rank. Naturally, slaying G rank monsters nets you top-tier armor and weapons with powerful and unique skills. In a reply, Socks also confirmed that despite Iceborne’s somew

Hey @Marvel, we heard about Tony Stark.

The Game Awards have given Marvel fans a pretty big surprise tonight: the announcement of Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3, coming exclusively to Nintendo Switch in 2019. In case you’re not familiar, the Ultimate Alliance games were isometric action-RPGs that pulled together heroes and villains across the Marvel multiverse to face down world-ending threats like Dr. Doom and Galactus. It won’t be developed by the same team, but will instead come under the supervision of Team Ninja, developers of Dead o

Spider-Man: Homecoming is largely seen as a return to form for the wisecracking superhero, so it’s understandable that you’d want something to commemorate a film we said “breathes new life into the MCU”. Unsurprisingly, Marvel’s way ahead of you; there’s a deal on for their special edition that includes the Blu-Ray, an exclusive comic, and an awesome statue of Spidey having aerial fisticuffs with the Vulture… all for £49.99 at Amazon. The deal won’t be around forever, so we’d advise grabbing it

Fortnite planes are officially a thing now that Fortnite season 7 has begun. This is what plane combat is supposed to look likeTwo planes weaving around, shooting at each other. While I was looking around for impressive Fortnite plane plays, most of the kills I saw devolved into this… Imagine dying by getting crushed by a plane in Fortnite, just imagine! @LachlanYT @OMGitsAliA @Ninja @FortniteGame #Fortnite #FortniteSeason7 pic.twitter.com/1JDdOiqcSODecember 7, 2018From what I’ve seen so far,

Destiny 2 players will find Xur the Exotic merchant in the Tower this weekend. To reach him, head toward the hangar and up the scaffolding behind Dead Orbit’s leader. Xur will be around until 9am PST / 12pm EST / 5pm BST Tuesday, December 11. These aren’t class-defining Exotics, but they’re both strong and fun to use. These two are definitely on the lower end of the Exotic spectrum, so maybe save your Legendary Shards unless you’re trying to fill out your collection.

It took Destiny 2 ’s best PvE players nearly 19 hours to clear Last Wish , the raid which was added in Destiny 2: Forsaken . Today, things went a lot faster in Scourge of the Past, the new raid which arrived as part of Destiny 2: The Black Armory . Bungie confirmed that players cleared it earlier this morning, less than two hours after it launched. *Scourge of the Past final boss spoilers ahead*That’s not to say Scourge of the Past is an easy raid, mind you. Not only that, its final boss is basi

With over 20 million systems out in the wild right now, it’s undeniable that the Switch has been a massive success for Nintendo.

Nothing can stop it!” The Blob is an oozing, slithering classic of 1950s monster movies, pitting a young Steve McQueen against a marauding jelly-beast from outer space. Now this cult schlock-fest has been digitally remastered for Blu-ray and comes complete with special features, including audio commentaries and Blobabilia!, a trawl though collector Wes Shank’s archive of props, posters and ephemera. The Criterion Collection Blu-ray of The Blob is available now and we have five copies to be won,

The ultimate winner of The Game Awards 2018 was God of War , but Red Dead Redemption 2 was also hugely popular. It won more awards than any other individual game, taking home Best Narrative, Best Score, and Best Audio Design. In addition to that, lead actor Roger Clark – who plays protagonist Arthur Morgan – won Best Performance, which is another point in the game’s favor. Red Dead Redemption 2’s greatest strengths are its world, story, and characters, and its sackful of rewards reflects that we

Fortnite season 7 is in full swing, and Epic just added a huge incentive to mess around in the custom buildings of Fortnite Creative Mode . As of this moment, Risky Reels has been flattened out of existence on the Fortnite island, and in its place sits The Block. While it’s not yet explicitly clear which lucky creation(s) will be selected to occupy The Block, Mustard said “We’re going to all pick it together.” And with so many people playing Fortnite, your masterpieces will be seen – and used as

Nintendo has revealed the first DLC fighter for Super Smash Bros. The leader of the Phantom Thieves will be the first of five DLC characters to come to the game. Each of these upcoming fighters is completely new to the Smash Bros. series, and will come with a stage and song reflecting the games from which they originate. That said, I will put money down right now that his Final Smash is a transformation into his persona. But don’t worry, you’ve got plenty of time to enjoy Super Smash Bros.

A proper trailer for Psychonauts 2, the long-awaited sequel to Double Fine’s beloved PS2-era 3D platformer, was revealed tonight at The Game Awards 2018. The trailer features plenty of new and familiar faces, but most importantly, it confirms that Psychonauts 2 is coming in 2019. I can’t wait to see the aesthetics Double Fine’s come up with for the minds of Raz’s family. Development on Psychonauts 2 has been slow going to say the least, so it’s nice to finally have a trailer and a release date.

Another surprise reveal from The Game Awards 2018: Mortal Kombat 11 is not only coming, but it’s practically just around the corner, with a special community reveal on January 17, and a global launch on April 23. With the trailer showing off two Scorpions, one of which is wearing his classic costume, plus the tease at the end with a mysterious woman caressing a giant hourglass, it would seem there are some time travel shenanigans afoot once again. And of course, the fighting looks just as brutal

The studio behind No Man’s Sky is making a new game, but that doesn’t mean it’s moving on from its procedurally generated universe. Hello Games announced The Last Campfire at The Game Awards on Thursday, calling the new project a “Hello Games Short” in contrast to bigger endeavors like No Man’s Sky. “We call it a Hello Games Short. We started by making Joe Danger, before No Man’s Sky, and we want to pay forward our success to give others the opportunity to do the same.” Hello Games didn’t reveal

The original creators of Fallout and the studio behind Fallout: New Vegas have revealed a new first-person RPG as part of The Game Awards 2018 – but don’t expect another post-apocalyptic wasteland, because The Outer Worlds is a slick, space age adventure. Obsidian gained a ton of goodwill and praise for its work on New Vegas, and I don’t know about you, but I get some serious NV vibes from this teaser. That might just be the cobbled-together look of some of the game’s armor and weapons, but in a

Crash Team Racing is the latest old school classic to get a wash and brush up for a new audience, with Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled just announced at The Game Awards. “There’s a reason it’s called Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled, and it’s because it’s the same game you loved, but revved up to the max. You can do that either by plumping for the Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled – Nitros Oxide Edition, where he’s unlocked right away, or by beating special challenges in the Adventure Mode. “In the or

*Far Cry 5 ending spoilers ahead*Far from the dreary, bombed-out tones that you might expect from a nuclear wasteland, Far Cry: New Dawn is a surprisingly bright and colorful post-apocalypse – though it does have plenty of ramshackle weapons and scrappy leather armor. And this landscape extends far beyond Far Cry 5’s Montana: the bomb that fell at the end of Far Cry 5 was apparently one of many. You experience Far Cry: New Dawn as a new character – not the deputy from Far Cry 5, as the game’s fi
