Even though more people completed DOOM Eternal than DOOM 2016, Eternal’s first single-player expansion is available to all and sundry, arriving as a standalone download. Solid details for DOOM Eternal: The Ancient Gods Part One hard to come by, however, with just the general premise and a trailer (below) provided thus far. Set after the …
The release schedule for the next few weeks is mostly formed of smaller and mid-tier titles, suggesting that publishers are keen to get their new games out and noticed before the Xbox Series X and PS5, along with their accompanying big-name games, arrive. On this week’s agenda there’s Cloudpunk, entailing a shady delivery service in …
Further proving that ‘big game season’ is upon us, this Friday sees the release of a potential Christmas no.1 – the almighty FIFA. FIFA 21 bolsters the Volta mode with five new areas, two new modes (Volta Squads and Feature Battles), a revamp career mode with a new match simulation mode – in which plans can be changed …
October is (almost) upon us, and as such, the first of winter’s big-name releases duly arrive this Friday. Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time is Activision’s first stab at a new Crash game since 2008’s Mind Over Mutant. Skylanders creators Toys for Bob are at the helm, also known for the highly praised Spyro Reignited …
The recent Mafia II remaster left a lot to be desired, adding all-new glitches to a decade-old game. Thankfully, Mafia: Definitive Edition looks a whole lot slicker – this a full-on remake, right down to completely redesigning some areas so they’re more authentic to the era. We’re curiously excited. The rest of this week’s …
It’s increasingly apparent that the pandemic has affected how Nintendo’s development studios operate, prompting a change of plans to their 2020 Switch line-up. The Switch is in its prime, yet the majority of games in the pipeline are smaller-scale titles and remasters, all of which can be handled easily by small teams. Super Mario 3D …
Hack ‘n slash RPG Kingdoms of Amalur is the latest THQ Nordic re-release, complete with a now obligatory nonsensical subtitle. The original was released by EA in 2012, failing to achieve commercial success despite positive reviews. Just like previous THQ Nordic revamps, new content is in the pipeline, adding an estimate five hours of play. …
Marvel’s superheroes have taken the limelight for over a decade, yet video game tie-ins have been relatively few, LEGO games aside. SEGA had a go during Phase One – resulting in a fairly good Captain America game – but it seemed nobody was willing to pick up the gauntlet after. This makes the news surrounding …
Back in the days of the PSone, almost every publisher had a stab at taking on FIFA and PES (nee ISS), with barely a month passing without a new football game on the shelves. Actua Soccer, Adidas Power Soccer, 4-4-2, Three Lions, Viva Football, LiberoGrande, Chris Kamara’s Street Soccer…the list went on and on. Eventually, …
The ‘90s just called and they want their new release line-up back. Not only is there a brand new Battletoads out this week – the first in over 25 years – but also both a cartoon and a TV show tie-in. The first Battletoads trailer looked a little underwhelming. Thankfully, the most recent trailer shows …
With almost twenty new releases on Xbox One alone, we can safely say it’s a busy week for new releases. Amongst these are two big hitters – EA’s UFC 4, which cranks up the realism this year to allow for a greater variety of outcomes, and Ubisoft’s free-to-play shooter Hyper Scape. Hyper Scape is Ubisoft’s …
We’ve chosen Fast & Furious Crossroads as this week’s biggest release as it’s a full-price title – very few of which are due during August– and it comes from the team behind the highly-regarded Project CARS series. This isn’t Bandai-Namco’s first Fast & Furious game either, believe it or not – they had a crack …
2005’s Destroy All Humans! is the newest remaster on the block, and all signs point to it being on par with THQ Nordic’s recent HD revamps – the demo version showcased an impressive makeover, with a bright and vibrant game world and alluring explosion effects. Our only concern is that the game’s humour – centred …
Sony’s PS Blog has suspended their weekly new release round-up, meaning we’ve had to fall back on less reliable sources. As such, it as has been tricky finding out what PS4 games are out lately. Some we know for certain, such as Ty the Tasmanian Tiger HD. That’s due Saturday, for some mad reason. A …
It’s one of those weeks where big-name new releases are so bountiful we can’t fit them all into the headline. Sorry, Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus. You were overthrown by SUPERHOT: MIND CONTROL DELETE. It was a close call though. Ghost of Tsushima towers above all. While it seems unlikely Sony are about to turn their backs …
