Over the last three installments, the Assassin’s Creed franchise has gone from a thin (but still cool) proof of concept to a full-fledged blockbuster series - and Ubisoft’s most profitable action-adventure game series to date. The original Assassin’s Creed was an enjoyable but repetitive title that, despite a number of fresh and exciting possibilities, relied too heavily on “gamey” side missions (i.e. the timed “capture the flag” missions, among others) to be a must-have experience....

3000 “pop-culture” fans were asked which next-gen console they are most excited about, and the results make for grim reading for Xbox. PlayStation is about to enter its fifth console battle and for the most part across the previous four, it has enjoyed a lot of success. The PS1’s sales were triple that of the Nintendo 64, the PS2 is the best-selling console of all time, and the PS4’s 110 million units sold has eclipsed the Xbox One’s numbers....

Valheim has reached astronomical numbers on Steam and has thousands of new players every day. Despite being a hardcore survival game, Valheim is still forgiving and surprisingly welcoming to newcomers as the game tells players what to do without holding their hand. Even still, most information comes from feeling things out, while mixing in some good-natured trial and error. However, flattening the ground could make all the difference in a player’s foundation, so a little research in this matter most certainly couldn’t hurt....

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines II will feature fewer clans than the original game, but the developers have promised that at least two will be added for free after launch. It’s likely that more will be released as paid DLC in the future or will be included as part of the Season of the Wolf season pass. The lore of the Vampire: The Masquerade tabletop game is still being developed, but there are several clans that in the RPG that could be included in Bloodlines II....

This article contains WandaVision spoilers. With just one episode left in the season – and technically the series – the finale of WandaVision has a lot of ground to cover.

There are plenty of fan-created cards that already bring the worlds of Warhammer and Magic into the rules set out in Magic: The Gathering.

Halo 5: Guardians was the franchise’s debut on the Xbox One, and to some it was divisive. The gameplay systems and narrative were changed significantly from 343 Industries’ previous efforts in Halo 4, alienating many classic Halo fans. Then, after a long moment of radio silence, Halo Infinite was finally revealed on the heels of a new console generation. Showing off a completely new world in the new Slipspace Engine, Halo Infinite is primed to be the next-gen reboot of Xbox’s flagship shooter....

There’s a general rule in the AAA gaming market that says consoles are king. If you want to make big bank, you make sure you have a big console release and maybe you do a simultaneous PC release too. That rule seems to have been broken when it comes to Cyberpunk 2077. According to recently released figures from CD Projekt Red’s investor relations Twitter account, more people are playing Cyberpunk 2077 on PC than on console....

This article contains spoilers for The Walking Dead season 10 episode 22. Negan (no last name given…or needed) is one of the most unexpectedly beloved characters on The Walking Dead. Loquacious, charismatic, and unfailingly vulgar, Negan practically jumps off the page of Robert Kirkman’s comic series, and makes a big impact through Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s performance of the AMC series. Over 193 issues of Kirkman’s comic, it became clear that the writer was just as enthralled with the brutish villain as the fans were....

This The Walking Dead: World Beyond review contains spoilers. The Walking Dead: World Beyond Episode 1 Growing up is never easy, but growing up in a world where safety is clustering behind walls with a few hundred other people and visiting the next town over might involve a helicopter trip or a dangerous days-long trek through walker-infested wilderness is something else entirely. It’s been a decade since the Night the Sky Fell on The Walking Dead: World Beyond, and since then, Iris (Aliyah Royale) and her sister Hope (Alexa Mansour) have grown up in the relative safety and normalcy of the Campus Colony, formerly Nebraska State University....

This is equally true of Dark Souls 3, and understanding the ins and outs of how the game operates is certainly required if the player wants to pull off a stunt like beating the game without getting hit....

Have you ever wanted to turn your Nintendo Switch into a pinball machine? Well, if you have a 3D printer, now you can. Pinball isn’t a huge deal for most gamers, but there’s a certain segment of the gaming populace that just loves the retro feel of a real pinball table. Getting one of those is getting harder and harder these days as pinball tables can cost upwards of thousands of dollars (and even mini virtual tables aren’t cheap), so most are turning to cheaper alternatives....

The release of Apex Legends has been both a blessing and a curse. It’s a blessing for Respawn, who have a hugely successful and profitable project, but it’s a curse for Titanfall fans who might not see a single-player sequel for a very long time. That hasn’t stopped Titanfall fans from asking for more Titanfall influence on Apex Legends, since they’re set in the same universe. This time, Respawn had a response....
