Among those who have joined already are Shroud, MoonMoon, Sykkuno, and xQc.

Not much information has been released regarding the upcoming agent, though many theories have been crafted through little clues provided by the game. A visual easter egg found by a player called Colagraag may suggest the next agent will have some invisibility powers.

Vampires in Vampire: The Masquerade remain in the shadows to hide their supernatural abilities from “misunderstanding” humans, as with their counterparts in fiction. However, Masquerade’s Kindred come from powerful bloodlines with their own unique sets of gifts, called Disciplines.

In turn, some Vampires run as fast as the wind - while others control people with a whisper....

With beta tests becoming more and more popular with this generation of games, one writer examines how this can not only help a game in the long run, but could potentially hurt it as well. I can’t help but imagine that beta tests make studios somewhat uncomfortable in the sense that they’re putting out an incomplete version of their game that they’ve been spending years of their life on to essentially be judged by the public....

A new study suggests that loot boxes in video games may lead to gambling addiction. Researchers from the University of British Columbia found a strong correlation between loot boxes and the factors used to measure addiction to gambling. A study of gamers of college age and based in North America found that the majority of gamers know of or have used a loot box. Most of those who were surveyed for the study also agreed that loot boxes are a form of gambling, contrary to the statements made by firms like the ESA (Entertainment Software Association) and other games industry bodies....

Game announcements are a special moment in the spotlight for developers, a time where they finally get to unveil the project they’ve spent years working on. Unfortunately, leaks are a thing that happen, which can be a pretty massive buzzkill for everyone involved. Last year, Walmart Canada accidentally leaked a few different games right before E3 2018, including Rage 2. And while this may have put a damper on the actual announcement, the two companies are now making light of the incident in a creative way....

We get it–Call of Duty: Warzone is a high-stress game, and especially so when you’re all alone. You have to maintain constant vigilance for enemy ambushes, checking around every corner, and investigating every sound for a possible attack route. And it’s even more dangerous for snipers. The enormously loud bang of any sniper rifle is bound to attract unwanted attention from opponents lying in wait or on the prowl, and every decent sniper knows to either relocate or check your surroundings after giving away your position with a shot....

The holiday season is right around the corner and with two new consoles hitting the market, it is likely going to be a big (and expensive) season for gamers. There are a ton of new games launching for both the current and next-gen consoles to help get the community excited and engaged over the holiday months. One of the most anticipated titles is Spider-Man: Miles Morales. Although there was initially some confusion over whether this game is a true sequel with a full campaign or more like an extended DLC, most of that has been clarified at this point....

Nioh 2 is one of the best games of 2020 that unfortunately arrived at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic dominating the news. Launching March 13, Nioh 2 delivered a sharp action-RPG experience building off the original game with prequel story that intertwines in interesting ways. Now Team Ninja is hoping to reignite that fire and hopefully recapture a wider audience four months later. Today marks the release of Nioh 2’s DLC The Tengu’s Disciple....

One tweet, a concept photo posted by the likes of BossLogic, has sent the DC fandom on a quest for the truth. Like Rorschach before them, uncertainty wanes thin, as a multitude of hints and clues riddled within the concept photo suggest the Watchmen are joining a bevy of other iconic characters featured in the next installment of Injustice. Titled a mere INJUSTIC3 by the artist himself, this followup could be something truly interesting with the likes of Ozymandias, Dr....

The Godfather is a historic movie that made and remade history. Francis Ford Coppola’s adaptation of Mario Puzo’s best-selling family novel is consistently rated in the top three motion pictures ever made, often at number 1. Some critics and film historians believe the sequel, The Godfather Part II, was an even better film, solidifying its place in the upper echelon of cinema. The Godfather was an allegory of corporate America told personally in a family setting that interpreted real life events....

In the closing minutes of The Secrets She Keeps’ penultimate episode, child-abductor Agatha made a run for it with stolen baby Benjamin. 12 days earlier, in a premeditated kidnapping, she’d taken Baby Ben from hospital hours after he was born and – after wearing a fake pregnancy prosthetic for months, pretended that she had given birth to him.

Joining an ever-expanding list of games to be pushed out to a 2021 release is ol’ Stanley Parable:Ultra Deluxe, as announced by developers Galactic Cafe and Crows Crows Crows yesterday. But we can forgive them, not only because we’d much rather wait a bit longer for a game that deserves that extra bit of tweaking, but mainly because of the way in which the developers made the announcement. It was exactly the kind of thing you’d expect from them, really....
