Publisher Electronic Arts has already confirmed that it will be announcing a new game from its Montreal studio this coming week. There’s been some speculation as to what the title could be, but there’s little doubt it’s actually a follow-up to last year’sArmy of Two. In fact, we’re damned sure of it. For one, EA’s “secretly” been planning to announce the supposed sequel for awhile now, from what we hear. But more importantly, the officialArmy of TwoWeb siteis filled with clues, including this page that has the HTML description “Army to Two....

A new2XKOtrailer has dropped, showing brief snippets of the explosive character in-game. The 2v2 fighting game has her using a mini-gun to take out her opponents, in addition to several guns and bombs at her disposal....

NIS has some cool stuff coming up Sometimes, all you need is an image or a piece of artwork to decide right then and there that you need to follow a game. That’s exactly how it went down for me withLiar Princess and the Blind Prince, an upcoming PS4, PS Vita, and Nintendo Switch game from Nippon Ichi Software. It’s gorgeous. The game is about a wolf-turned-princess guiding a blind prince through a forest....

Summer 2025 is sure to be a hot one. And I’m not just talking about global warming or rising temperatures. For the first time in 30 years, Marvel Comics yesterday announced the return of itsSwimsuit Specialcomic, and within the news, also revealed that popular hero shooter gameMarvel Rivalswill be getting special swimsuit costumes to celebrate the issue’s launch this July.

My patience finally pays off I can barely recall a time when my Xbox 360 hard drive wasn’t full of games and DLC. It would’ve been beforeRock Band, certainly. And the situation has only gotten more chaotic since Microsoft starting pumping out regularGames with Goldreleases. That’s console life, I suppose. It’s not exactly timely, but there is a new solution in the works: Microsoft will enable the use of external 2TB hard drives to store Xbox 360 data this year....

It’s looking pretty sweet I’m glad that I kept my Dreamcast, becausethe games slowly but surely keep on coming. The newest project is shoot ’em upNeo XYXby the NG: Dev. Team. It looks and sounds great so far based on the trailer, and the cherry on top is a confirmation the game runs at a full 60fps. But the Dreamcast isn’t the only console getting some love, asNeo XYXis also in development for the Neo-Geo....

As teased in the recent Direct, you can use them with the Switch Just recently, Nintendo shared more info on Super Nintendo World via a physical walking tour with the father of Mario: Shigeru Miyamoto. It was amazing!Go watch it. Back? Well you may have noticed thatat some point in the video, Nintendo teased the Power-Up Bands (which are basically a form of Magic Bands from Disney parks), and some form of Switch functionality....

What is Nintendo’s NX and do we already want it? Though it’s slowly opening up, the videogame industry is still pretty closed to anyone over a certain age. Most console games are firmly targeted people aged 10-to-30, and that’s the way its been for a long time. This is part of why so few videogame console developers have managed to stick around for more than 20 years. People grow up, and as they move forward, the game brands and consoles that they once loved often look childish and obsolete to them....

Hack the planet Watch Dogs 2was a pretty good representation of the hacking community that has grown over the years, but it did have one big flaw. These supposed nobodies were running around with near superhuman bullet resistance and blowing shit up with military-grade firearms. For a cast of characters just wanting to screw around with Hollywood productions, killing hundreds of people always felt odd. While you could non-lethally finish each mission, combat was still involved at nearly every corner....

Techland focused on keeping the environments feeling new Sebastian Reichert, the executive producer ofDead Island: Riptide, thinks that exploration will be the shining star of the upcoming open-world zombie survival game. When asked what the single aspect ofRiptidethat players will find most impressive, Reichert said “The way that the exploration of the island works will be what keeps people pushing forward. When you visit a point the first time, the way back feels different because of the level design....

As any fan ofPalworldwill tell you, the game is ripe with possibilities for merch and goodies to decorate our homes. From plushes to figurines, clothing and even terrifying nightmare fuel, if you look hard enough you’ll be able to find everythingPalworldrelated, but none of it is official merch. Posting on Twitter this morning, Pocketpair has assured that there is indeed some official merchandise on the way, if fans can wait a just little longer to get their hands on it....

Some people are really dedicated If you’re not convinced that hundreds of people in packed dense locations are playingPokemon Goyet, give this short documentary from Alexander Steinerg a watch. In this doc you’ll find (and this is real): The dude at 7:30 in explains it all: “anything can fucking happen!” Man this game! It’s so cool to see this social phenomenon unfold. When itdoesplateau eventually I hope some of this madness is still around....
