Fans of fantasy settings and games have quite a lot to sink their teeth into on the PlayStation 4. Along with ports of older titles like The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Sony’s system has welcomed plenty of fantastical RPGs that teleport players to unbelievable worlds far removed from reality. Gaming offers a way to escape from everyday life, and few genres are better at that than fantasy. Although the definition tends to vary from person to person, high fantasy generally refers to stories set in alternate worlds that bare essentially no resemblance to Earth....

With the dawn of the new console generation, gamers everywhere are reflecting on the past several years. From epic solo quests to zany online party games, there were a ton of hits. Though all three major consoles had their fair share of awesome experiences, Microsoft’s dedicated game machine was a great place to play. Despite there being many genres and settings in video games throughout the past several years, the Xbox One had a few awesome (and a few not so awesome) fantasy titles that stood out from the crowd....

5. Sensible World of Soccer Sensible World of Soccer is a ’90s throwback title with revamped graphics. Players can play a single match or train their team up for a full season of gameplay with the tactics editor. For better or worse, they just don’t make sports games like they used to. Sports fans looking for some twentieth-century nostalgia will want to jump on this deal, available through Xbox’s premium service Games with Gold until May 15th....

There are no perfect games. It is important to keep that in mind with Nintendo’s big hit, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Zelda has come to be known as one of the most consistently great gaming series in the Nintendo-verse. The vast majority of fans agree that BotW is one of the best Zelda games yet. That said, BotW does suffer from a few flaws that some of the previous Zelda games avoid altogether....

Half-Life is one of the best FPS games ever to come out and the innovative mechanics in the game helped shape the FPS genre as gamers know it today. Fans have been waiting for a sequel to Half-Life 2 for over a decade but it seems like Valve wants to take their sweet time on it. At least fans of the series have Half-Life: Alyx to play while they’re waiting....

In 1975, Ho Meng Hua’s Black Magic cast its spell over Chinese audiences and summoned up a subgenre that produced some of the most extreme, esoteric and stomach-churning horror films of all time. Between the late 70s and early 80s, Chinese black magic movies were pumped out en masse, feeding audiences their fill of evil sorcery and twisted moralizing. The formula usually featured some poor schmuck enlisting a dark wizard to help them achieve something (more often than not, something sexual) and finding that the forces they’ve unleashed are more than they can handle....

One of the most violent and most powerful alien races of the Mass Effect universe is the krogan. They tend to be ruthless and self-centered, but it’s not without valid reason. Plus, the krogan are some of the best fighters players can ever encounter—it’s safe to say that it’s better to have the original trilogy’s Urdnot Wrex and Mass Effect: Andromeda’s Nakmor Drack on the team rather than against it....

Microsoft has been making strides with the Xbox Game Pass service in the last few years, delivering a functional game subscription service for players to enjoy. Through the Xbox Game Pass service, players can access more games than before, and developers can port new games to a wider audience. However, not every video game developer is entirely sold on the Xbox Game Pass service. In a recent interview with Polygon, Josef Fares, developer of A Way Out and founder of Hazelight Studios, discussed the new game It Takes Two, his focus on co-op, and his opinion on Xbox Game Pass....

Recently, it was confirmed that the PS5 and Xbox Series X versions of the upcoming NBA 2K21 would be priced at $70 instead of the industry-standard $60. To some, this is a sign that video game prices are set to increase across the board when it comes to next-gen releases, but other publishers have pushed back against that narrative. Activision has recently commented on the subject as well, though it doesn’t seem to want to commit either way....

This American Horror Story: Double Feature review contains spoilers. American Horror Story Season 10 Episode 4 The Red Tide portion of American Horror Story: Double Feature asks a few simple questions. What would you do if you could suddenly tap into the limitless potential of your talent? What would you trade to be able to live out your dream, be it singing, dancing, writing, or art? For some people, the answer to that would be just about anything, including taking a pill and occasionally turning another human into one of the show’s titular blood buffets....

Animal Crossing: New Horizons has seen massive success since its release in March of this year. The internet is littered with stories of how important it was in bringing people some level of normalcy and joy through quarantine. Although the hype has somewhat died down since then, the Halloween update has really pulled people back in. Players have once again started sinking hours into their previously deserted islands. From pumpkin farming to new cosmetics, the Halloween update brought quite a lot of different features to entertain its fans....

One of the surprise announcements from this E3 season was a new Avatar game, Frontiers Of Pandora. While it likely came as a shock to most of us, the project had indeed been in the works for years prior. This is according to a 2020 autobiography from Massive Entertainment’s David Polfeldt, in which he detailed the long search for a developer. Most shocking is how, according to Polfeldt, one developer that Ubisoft and James Cameron’s team agreed on was dropped from the project last minute…for offering them cocaine when they went in to sign the contract....

In the weeks following E3 2018, information about Anthem continued to slowly stream out thanks to Executive Producer Mark Darrah’s active Twitter account and his openness with fans (including details on set bonuses). That trend has slowed down a bit towards the end of the summer, but Darrah still manages to confirm a new feature on occasion while he is replying to a fan question. Most recently, a fan reached out to Darrah to inquire about the possibility of matchmaking for Raids in the upcoming game....

Anthem isn’t even out for PS4 and Xbox One yet, but fans are already thinking ahead to the game’s future. Since Anthem is a live service game, with BioWare apparently planning to support it for a whopping 10 years, some fans have wondered if it will eventually be ported to next-generation consoles. And while we don’t have an official confirmation on whether or not a next-gen version of Anthem is actively in development, BioWare’s Head of Live Service Chad Robertson has confirmed that saves will transfer to next-gen consoles if the opportunity arises....

Since launch, Apex Legends has maintained the classic Assault, Defense, Recon, and Support system common in many similar shooters. However, many feel as if the game has outgrown the class system through its variety of buffs or nerfs. As such, one Redditor by the name of sizzle_burn has come up with a redesign of the system that would go a long way. Namely, the biggest change he makes is the addition of a “runner” classification....

It’s been more than a year and a half since Respawn Entertainment’s Apex Legends dropped onto current-gen consoles, and the game has seen numerous changes in that time. Not only has the battle royale added Worlds Edge as its second map, but it has also added multiple characters such as the Quick Witted Modder Rampart. With so many additions, new players could likely feel overwhelmed with the systems in place, and this is where one player’s idea comes into play....

Apex Legends players have discovered a few new bugs as of late, with the latest issue making one of the game’s Legends feel almost useless. Recently, the Apex Legends character Rampart has seen one of her abilities consistently breaking for numerous players, making her a much less viable choice in Respawn’s popular battle royale. While the powerful Apex Legends character Wraith is dominating the pick rate charts, it has become equally common to find Rampart near the bottom of the list....

Respawn Entertainment has revealed a new trailer for Apex Legends announcing several exciting features coming to the game. These details range from a variety of topics including the next Collection Event, a new LTM, as well as the highly anticipated crossplay update. Perhaps the best part is that players won’t have to wait long before they can get their hands on these features, as they all make their way to Apex Legends on October 6....
