Summary Dead by Daylight’snewest chapter,Doomed Course, is off to a rocky start.

Summary Following years of rumours and insider leaks,Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles 2 has finally been officially announced. Thanks to therelease of the long-awaited Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero, 2024 has already been a landmark year for anime gamesand given us one of the best to ever do it. It seems that 2025 might be able to give it a run for its money, though,as there are plenty of exciting adaptations in the works, from Bleach: Rebirth of Souls to Hunter x Hunter: Nen x Impact....

I’m enjoyingDestiny: Risinga lot more than I thought I would. Rather than try to port Destiny 2 (and all of its flaws) onto mobile, NetEase has developed an entirely new Destiny game that plays to the mobile platform’s strengths. Its approach to bite-sized missions and daily routines makes it perfect for bathroom breaks and that part of the day where you zone out while jiggling your mouse so the boss doesn’t catch on....

The context behind how games are made is often ignored. And maybe it should be. I remember whenSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leaguecrashed and burned earlier this year, a fair few people were quick to point out that the developers had, at least, tried. BeingRocksteadyseemed to earn them the benefit of the doubt. I argued, like Charles Bukowski’s gravestone, thattrying did not matter. I still feel that way. But the context aroundDragon Age: The Veilguardis a force for good too powerful to ignore....

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6wasa great game.Was. Any goodwill it had at launch has been completely squandered in just two months, making it one of 2024’s most embarrassing releases. Activision Appears To Be Going All In On AI… New promotional art was revealed earlier this month for the holiday festivities, and fans immediately noticed thatit looked suspiciously like AI, since zombie Santa — and a hand holding Gobblegum — had the wrong number of fingers....

Summary When it comes to our favourite series, it can often be difficult to return to the older titles. More specifically, it can be difficult to enjoy them if you do happen to take a trip down memory lane. They don’t look as good, they have fewer features than the latest versions, and generally, they just feel a little clunky. As much as I was ready to dive back into some adventures with Pilgor from the original game withGoat Simulator: Remastered, I was all too aware that I might not enjoy it as much because of the time I’ve since spent with the far superior sequelGoat Simulator 3....

Summary WhileGod of War Ragnarökwrapped up Kratos' story pretty nicely,and the Valhalla DLC was a nice cherry on top of it all, more GOW content is always a good thing.
