Ahead of its release on March 5, Marathon developer Bungie has addressed fan feedback for its extraction shooter following the Server Slam test. With launch day fast approaching, the studio says that it has addressed several issues like input lag and communication bugs, while it'll be keeping an eye on ammo economy, user interface updates, and more. The developer also mentioned that the more time players spent in the game, the more fun they reported having as they dug deeper into Marathon's...
Pokemon is celebrating its 30th anniversary today, and of course, there are a number of events happening all around the internet to mark the occasion. The official festivities kicked off this morning with a Pokemon Presents live stream unveiling several announcements for the Pokemon video games and trading card series, including the reveal of the next mainline Pokemon games, Pokemon Winds and Waves, coming to Switch 2 in 2027. Of course, Pokemon has always been more than just a video game...
Epic Games has run a few "buy this game on the Epic Games Store and get a Fortnite skin" promotions over the years, but it seems the Fortnite creator has decided to do a lot more of that kind of thing in 2026, starting in March with Resident Evil Requiem and Crimson Desert. Steve Allison, general manager for EGS, proclaimed in January that the company hopes to offer as many as 100 of these deals every year. That's quite a ramp-up, since Fortnite has rarely had more than one or two of these...
Resident Evil Requiem is notable for being the first game in the series to offer both the first- and third-person perspectives that modern Resident Evil games have been bouncing back and forth between--at launch, anyways. Although Resident Evil Village has the option for both perspectives, the third-person mode was added afterwards in a free update and, as such, feels more clunky and bolted on at times. This isn't the case with Requiem, in which both first- and third-person feel extremely...
Released in 2019, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night quickly became one of the best metroidvanias in modern history. Offering a vibrant art style, a fluid combat system, and even voiced cutscenes, Bloodstained brought plenty of flair to the standard metroidvania gameplay loop. And now, over five years later, Bloodstained is getting a new release from Limited Run Games. Preorders are officially open for Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night - Complete Edition, which is available in two different...
Honkai Star Rail 4.0’s livestream reveal at the beginning of February concerned players, including me. A reduction in the number of events--being replaced with more minigames--the absence of an impressively produced music-video-style trailer, the already disappointing 3.X phase of the game, and the version being split across two worlds--Planarcadia and Astropolis--led to the reveal feeling a little underwhelming. However, having spent some time in 4.0 now, I can swallow my pride and say my...
If you haven't heard, today is Pokemon Day, and it's also Pokemon's 30th birthday. Earlier today, The Pokemon Company broadcast its annual Pokemon Presents livestream with news and updates, and nestled among the reveal of the next generation of Pokemon games and other updates was the Game Boy Jukebox, a curious replica of the original Game Boy handheld that only plays music. GameSpot recently went hands-on with the device at New York Toy Fair, and it evokes the spirit of the 1990s in more...
