  2. From attacking opponents and collecting resources to upgrading your kingdom, Dice Dreams is a great option for everyone who enjoys board games with a competitive twist. As the name implies, the core mechanic of Dice Dreams revolves around rolling dice to determine movement and actions on the board. View the full article
  3. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was known for NPCs that lacked personality, were repetitive in their design, and had limited routines and behaviors. In The Witcher 4, that appears to be changing, as the game's director recently revealed that it will be taking its NPCs to the next level. In a recent interview with Gamertag Radio, game director Sebastian Kalemba revealed that NPCs in The Witcher 4 are specifically designed to look "like they're living, with their own story." Now, in light of their increased detail, it's worth considering what The Witcher 4's NPCs could introduce to the series' gameplay. View the full article
  4. A new Genshin Impact leak has revealed important information about upcoming character releases. Genshin Impact's intensive update schedule allows HoYoverse to keep the content fresh by consistently adding new storylines, playable units, regions, and more. View the full article
  5. Open-world games need many elements to synergize for players to remember these experiences, especially given how overpopulated the world of gaming is with such experiences. A simple and engaging way for players to fall in love with these sandbox titles is courtesy of a memorable villain who captures the player's attention whenever they make an appearance.

  6. While most of the cast of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace was busy celebrating the film's 25th anniversary last year, there was one star of the show that wasn't among the group. Jake Lloyd, who was seemingly bound for stardom when he portrayed the young Anakin Skywalker (the man who became Darth Vader), never really saw his career take off after the Star Wars prequel trilogy. In part, that was because he suffered from severe mental illness. View the full article
  7. AS Yuki posted a post in a topic in Gaming Newsroom
    Free-to-play games are enticing options on the PlayStation 5, and this category of projects has drastically shifted in recent years. With the explosive popularity of titles like Fortnite and Genshin Impact, many games want to adopt a free-to-play formula. View the full article
  8. Aside from the Protagonist, there will be seven additional party members to join him during his journey who can fight in combat in Metaphor: ReFantazio. Gallica will be there right at the beginning of the game, but she won't be able to participate in battle to the same degree as the other party members. View the full article
  9. Konami is planning on releasing Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater at some point in 2025. It's being positioned as an ambitious remake of the 2004 classic action-stealth title, with not only revamped visuals, but gameplay and structural elements as well. Time will tell how receptive players, especially those with a fondness for the original game, are to this Metal Gear Solid 3 remake, but it's looking promising so far. View the full article
  10. Keira Knightley has cemented herself as one of the most versatile and renowned actors of her generation, having played exciting and beloved roles her whole adult life. Kiera Knightley's versatility is most obvious when looking at the variety of genres she has dipped into over the years, from fantastical films like Pirates of the Caribbean to historical pieces like The Imitation Game, as well as romantic comedies like Love Actually and literary dramas such as Atonement and Pride and Prejudice. Knightley's adaptability has won her fans of all ages, and undoubtedly her most recent roles in Black Doves and The Boston Strangler will continue to do so. View the full article

  12. Amazon's Winter Sale is producing some impressive deals, including the Logitech G815 Lightsync gaming keyboard, which is now available for $119.99. Shoppers seeking a sleek gaming keyboard with great performance are happy to hear that this promotion brings down the price an immense 40% from its original price of $199.99. The price brings back the lowest price ever on Amazon, recorded on Black Friday, saving shoppers $80 on the purchase. Do act quickly, though, as there's no word on how long we'll get to enjoy the discount. View the full article
  13. While continuing its legacy through ongoing full mainline releases, Final Fantasy has also managed to make the most of its relationships with other franchises. Taking particularly well to the fighting game genre, the appearance of Clive Rosfield in Tekken 8 is the latest collaboration that introduced a Final Fantasy character. With only one other series rivaling the dynamic he's reinforced, there's significant promise in Clive making it to the next Super Smash Bros. title. View the full article
  14. One Piece has always had some of the strangest body proportions in all of fiction. While many other series attempt to keep characters in a relatively similar size category, One Piece characters, on the other hand, can reach incredibly absurd sizes. Even seeing two characters, like Doffy and Luffy, who are both supposed to be human, standing side by side, the actual height difference is almost comically ridiculous. View the full article
  15. If someone collected every Dragon Ball game ever made and stacked the fighting games next to the non-fighting games, there wouldn’t be a contest. The fighting games would tower above them like Shenron. Dragon Ball games have hit almost every console since the days of the NES. In the early days, there weren’t many fighting games but now that is almost exclusively what fans get. View the full article
  16. Honkai: Star Rail shares many similarities with its predecessor, Genshin Impact. For instance, each version lasts for six weeks, and there are always two phases of the version, where each lasts for three weeks. When the three-week timer is over, players will see a change in the featured Warp Banner. Therefore, when a banner drops, Trailblazers have that much time to grind the game for every drop of Stellar Jade. View the full article
  17. One Marvel's Spider-Man 2 player tried their best to capture photos reminiscent of the Tobey Maguire Spider-Man movies. Many fans consider Marvel's Spider-Man 2 to be one of the best games that the famous web-slinger has ever been a part of. With the variety of outfits, options, and improvements it has over the previous entry, that claim may prove true. Granted, some gamers also enjoy the simpler things, such as the game's Photo Mode.

  18. The Sonic the Hedgehog franchise has continued to go from strength to strength with each release, with the recent Sonic the Hedgehog 3 being met with positive responses from moviegoers and critics alike. The franchise continues to deliver box office results too, leading to audiences demanding a fourth installment. View the full article
  19. In the world of manga, one genre has been ruling the industry for quite some time now: the isekai. There are so many new isekai series every year that it is practically impossible to keep track of them all. While there’s nothing inherently bad about one genre being more dominant than the rest, the rise of isekai means the fall of other less-popular genres, such as horror. Horror is already a niche genre, but when an industry hyper-focuses on chasing the isekai trend, the result is a concerningly low number of horror manga. View the full article
  20. In 2024, major Shonen Jump manga ended. Jujutsu Kaisen and My Hero Academia bid farewell to their fans (at least when it comes to the original stories, there are plenty of spin-offs ongoing). Since Naruto and Bleach ended in the 2010s, fans have been wondering which titles would be the "next big three". View the full article
  21. Square and Enix (two companies that eventually became Square Enix in 2003) found major success in the '90s, whether it was through their flagship franchises Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest or their other games. Here are the best Square or Enix games from each year in the '90s. View the full article
  22. Implicit Conversions, the developer behind some of PS Plus’s Classic PlayStation ports, is said to be looking into adding PS3 emulation at long last. While the PlayStation 5 is only backward compatible with its immediate predecessor, the PS4, Sony has been allowing gamers to play older titles from the PS1, PS2, and PSP eras through its Classics catalog of emulated games. However, while some PlayStation 3 games like God of War 3 have been made available on the PS4 and beyond, a good many classic PlayStation titles from the seventh console generation remain locked to their native system to this day.

  23. When it comes to RPGs, the Tales of series holds a very special place in the industry, recognized for its storytelling, memorable characters, and innovative gameplay mechanics. Since its humble beginnings in 1995 with Tales of Phantasia, the series has continued to capture and retain the attention of its fans and those of the JRPG genre in general with its frequently emotional narratives, unique artstyle, and ever-evolving combat systems. Now that the Tales of series is nearly 30 years old, however, that means some of its oldest titles are due for a remaster. View the full article
  24. Slime Rancher has players taking control of protagonist Beatrix LeBeau through an indie life sim gameplay experience, exploring locations on a new planet, progressing their ranch, and discovering and taming endearing and interesting little creatures known as Slimes. There are a wide variety of different Slimes available in the game, each of which has its own unique habitat and interests, including a favorite food. View the full article
  25. Carlotta is the first 5-star limited pistol character in Wuthering Waves, introduced with the release of the new Rinascita region in version 2.0. As one of the highlights of this major update, Carlotta brings a fresh and dynamic playstyle, perfectly suited for exploring the new areas, especially if players have been looking to try out new characters for overworld exploration. Her fast-paced ranged attacks may be refreshing experience for both veteran and new players alike. View the full article
