With much of the AAA game development space devolving ever further into a trend-chasing, reiterative mess, gamers often seek recourse via the indie market. Yet, with platforms like Steam, the PlayStation Store, and the Nintendo eShop positively overflowing with lower-budget titles, it can be tough for quality digital-only games to stick out. With that in mind, Shockwork Games’ upcoming tactical stealth offering Alder’s Blood definitely shouldn’t be overlooked. An inventive, engaging, and visually stunning experience, it takes clear influence from games like Darkest Dungeon, X-Com, and Divinity: Original Sin, and melds them together to form one of the most enjoyable smaller-scale offerings on the Switch....

During a time when having a steady income is helpful, around 190 employees in Activision Blizzard learned they would be laid off. The reason for 50 of these layoffs was the shift in esports overall from in-person events to online. This primarily pertains to the Overwatch and Call of Duty Leagues. Top Executive Tony Petiti did an interview with The Esports Observer. He stated that it’s a necessary restructuring as a result of COVID-19 and the need to"reinvent" that specific division....

Celeste has been around since Animal Crossing: Wild World and has become a fan-favorite among the Animal Crossing NPCs. She is Blathers’ little sister, and while he is into all kinds of sciences, her specialized interest is in the stars. In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, she sometimes appears on player islands to go stargazing. She will also give the player DIYs that utilize star pieces that can appear the next day if they wish on stars....

Animal Crossing: New Horizons isn’t always straightforward when it comes to helping players with island improvements and upping the island’s rating. But it appears that one Animal Crossing: New Horizons player has a bit of guidance to offer, albeit a somewhat unconventional one. One of the ways that your island’s rating can decrease in Animal Crossing: New Horizons is by leaving junk around and maintaining it as would be ideal. Reddit user Hijynks was able to establish a five-star island themselves by performing strict maintenance, but that which may not be entirely pleasing to the real estate owners of Animal Crossing: New Horizons....

Lovecraft Country star Jonathan Majors has landed a crucial role in Ant-Man 3, according to Deadline.

Ant-Man 3 has still not officially been announced by Marvel Studios, but the film’s pre-production has been underway for a while....

Anthem fans’ loss might be The Division 2’s gain. Now that Anthem 2.0 is officially canceled, it’s time to recognize the game that is quickly climbing to the top of the games as a service hill. The genre is growing quickly as more and more companies put out their own version of live service titles. Electronic Arts and BioWare were likely hoping that Anthem 2.0 could rise to the top of the heap as well....

Games as a service is the term used to refer to games that are supported with a swell of post-launch updates and, in many cases, have business models that depend on players paying for and downloading those updates after their initial purchase. Destiny 2, Grand Theft Auto Online (the multiplayer component of Grand Theft Auto 5), Overwatch, The Division, and Rainbow Six Siege are all examples. While headlines insisting that the ‘death of the single-player games is upon us’ are over-exaggerations (right now, at least), the industry is clearly shifting away from that style of game....

The Wardens of Law are one of the branches of the Order of the Ancients in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. They are scattered across England as they work to bring their goal to fruition, but not if Eivor has anything to say about it. There are clues you have to uncover to discover their location, or you can try to seek them out beforehand. There are seven members in all, and luckily, a few of them are a part of the main storyline....

Gamers know what they love and hate about their passion, and whenever fans get outraged over gaming, it’s important for developers and publishers to take note of what they have to say. No more is this true than in a recent fiasco over Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla’s use of microtransactions. In a recent post on Reddit, fans of Assassin’s Creed have struck out against Ubisoft over their inclusion of additional armor set microtransactions....

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla has quietly integrated the PS5 DualSense controller into the PC version of the game. The only feature used however, is the adaptive triggers. As pointed out by VGC’s Andy Robinson, the adaptive triggers have been incorporated while using the bow. A half press would have Eivor aim, while a full press will fire the arrow. There’s no word yet on whether the haptic feedback will be included as well....

There’s something special about “that moment” in the horror genre. Whether it’s the scene from that movie that’s been burned into your head since childhood or the passage of that book you’ll always wish you couldn’t recite from heart, there are just times when horror is so perfectly distilled into a single moment that we often come to associate those genre masterpieces with that one scene. Well, few horror moments are more memorable than the scariest sequences in gaming history....

After approximately a 5000 year delay, Kingdom Hearts III has finally graced stores with its presence. As far as gaming crossovers are concerned, Square Enix’s partnership with Disney is only superseded by Nintendo’s Super Smash Bros franchise, although niche titles like Jump Force and Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney have their share of supporters. Certain combinations just feel right. Goku facing off against Luffy and Naruto makes sense, these are characters designed for crossovers....

Nintendo is famous for their big franchises. Mario, Link, and Donkey Kong all headline their own franchises with their own structures that attract big crowds of people. However, every once in a while, the Big N will cook up something new and interesting with their familiar properties and put them in new scenarios. Some of these spin-off titles are received to great success. After all, both Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros are still technically spin-off games that were so beloved that they’ve become some of Nintendo’s biggest franchises....

Marvel can do no wrong, judging by how things are going for them in the present. They have the Midas touch as far as film-making is considered. Their recent films starting from Captain America: Civil War (and with the exception of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2) have all garnered over 90% on Rotten Tomatoes. That is unprecedented for a franchise. All of their movies following Ant-Man have made over $650 million dollars worldwide....

Retro-shooter developer 3D Realms has announced a brand new event coming in September for fans of retro-style games, complete with callbacks to classic shooters like the developer’s own original Duke Nukem.
