It is for that reason that many Metal Gear Solid fans were surprised to see The Phantom Pain’s hero, Big Boss or “Punished Snake,” without his iconic bandana....

Since it was initially revealed, Metal Gear Survive has not exactly been making headlines for the right reasons, and Konami’s recent announcement on the title is not likely to change the tide. The publisher has revealed that the Metal Gear Solid spin-off is now facing a delay, with the previous release date of 2017 being pushed back into early 2018. The news was revealed by a Konami representative during E3 2017, confirming that Metal Gear Survive has now been “pushed back a few months....

Multiverses are officially The Next Big Thing in the upcoming slate of films from both Marvel and DC.

The Xbox One is an all in one media box, of the gaming, television, movie and music sort, this much Microsoft has made clear. As part of their console’s multimedia offerings, the company has tried to pioneer the Xbox One Kinect 2.0 camera, looking to justify the extra cost that the peripheral adds, for a device that brings benefits in the form of voice activated controls and downsides in that there are few Kinect enabled apps, which is causing the console to struggle in both sales and public opinion against the Sony PS4, which is $100 cheaper....

While the main portion of activities found in the open world of Monolith and Warner Bros. Interactive’s forthcoming action-adventure title Middle-earth: Shadow of War should offer players plenty to do, no matter how slowly or quickly they accomplish the campaign, it’s a safe statement to make that they will eventually reach the end game. With this being the case, the developers have ensured that players will be able to continue enjoying the release long after the completion of its main campaign by implementing an end game mission type called “Shadow Wars....

Minecraft Dungeons’ secret level is a love letter to longtime fans of the dungeon crawler genre, as it harkens back to the infamous yet beloved secret level of one of its greatest inspirations, Diablo 2. While that connection is plain as day and easy to make for anyone vaguely familiar with Diablo 2, there is another link to a more recent popular game which is somewhat obscured. The latest Minecraft game may have ties to the highly anticipated upcoming The Last of Us 2 in a somewhat strange and convoluted way....

The Half-Life series may have finally made an official return with the recently-released Half-Life: Alyx, but one fan modder isn’t quite finished with Half-Life 2 yet. Just days after the release of Half-Life: Alyx, the opening scene of Half-Life 2 has been recreated in Alyx’s engine, Source 2. Considering the first Source engine, and Half-Life 2, dates back to 2004, this new modded version features some major upgrades–though it’s currently incomplete....

After a long arduous period of waiting Monster Hunter Rise is finally here. Capcom’s latest installment in one of its most popular franchises features the player living in a Ninja village where they do, well exactly as the name says.

As promised, NetherRealm Studios kicked off their Jason pre-release festivities with a ton of new Mortal Kombat X footage.

Contains major spoilers for Legion season 1 (obviously!). FOX’s mind-melting, X-Men-adjacent Legion TV series is returning soon. Hurrah!

However, by the time that Legion season 2 kicks off (its American premiere date of April 3rd will be followed by a UK debut on April 17th), it will be over a year since Legion season 1 came to its brain-bothering conclusion....

Game preservation is a ongoing effort that can have its peaks and valleys, and with the industry heading to an all digital future, licensing can play a huge factor in access to modern games. While efforts are in place to avoid such issues, the process of accessing and tracking down older games to make them readily available faces its own unique hurdles. Such was the case many years for SimRefinery, a game developed by Maxis and nearly lost due to business closures until this year....
