It was, for a few days, difficult for me to figure out exactly why my time with Reanimal was so exciting. When it was first announced by Tarsier Studios, the team behind Little Nightmares 1 and 2, I thought it was striking how much it resembled the team's prior series--one which had since been handed to Supermassive. I played both Supermassive's Little Nightmares 3 and Tarsier's Reanimal in the same week, and though my time with Reanimal was limited to a demo of about 20 minutes, I came away...

The Outlast Trials has long been one of the best horror games to play, but in its next update, it's going to get even scarier. Coming in a patch on October 21, Invasion mode is adding an optional PvP mode to the game for the first time, and the way developer Red Barrels has designed it adds a ton of horror and paranoia to the experience.
As devoted players already know, the normally PvE co-op horror game can be disrupted by "impostors," NPC characters who appear on the map as violent...
Nearly two years ago, Rockstar Games shared the first look at Grand Theft Auto 6, one of the most highly anticipated titles in the history of the video game industry. Since then, numerous analysts and gaming industry figures have speculated or openly wished for the game to be sold for $100 in order for other AAA games to reach the same price. Now, Saints Row design director Chris Stockman has shared his wish for GTA 6 to be $100 as well, but not for the same reason as some of his peers...
The Battlefield 6 official soundtrack features Limp Bizkit, and while the collaboration might seem natural given the game series is known for "breaking stuff" and Limp Bizkit has a song called "Break Stuff," the partnership wasn't planned from the onset. Henry Jackman, who scored Battlefield 6, said in an interview with Hollywood Records that he was nearly finished with the Battlefield 6 OST before wondering if a collaboration with a rock group might benefit the game.
"There is definitely a...

Late last month, Electronic Arts confirmed that it had struck a $55 billion deal to go private under new ownership including Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, Jared Kushner's Affinity Partners, and the private equity firm Silver Lake. There are a lot of unanswered questions about what this means for EA and the industry at large, but now two US Senators are raising the potential "foreign influence" Saudi Arabia could enact with EA under its control.

Battlefield 6 is marketed as a game that has "only in Battlefield" moments, and while that's a marketing hype line, sometimes it's also true. That's certainly the case in new clip posted by Rebs Gaming.
In the sequence, the Battlefield 6 player XxOsiris187xX ejects from a jet high above the battlefield and just as they go to open their parachute, another jet appears below them. The player lands on this jet, walks to the front, dome-shots the pilot, and then gets into the hijacked jet to...
The Outer Worlds 2 is two weeks away, and Mircosoft and developer Obsidian are keeping up the hype by introducing the Moon Man as a Couch-Panion. This is a joke, and yet it's very real at the same time, as seen in the video below.
"This isn't just merch," reads the description on Xbox Wire. "This isn't just a plush. This is a lifestyle choice. A statement piece. A co-pilot for every late-night quest and awkward snack run. It's satire you can hug--and proof that The Outer Worlds 2 lives...

Maybe you've noticed, but everywhere you look now, skating is back.
Though skateboarding games once dominated the gaming scene in the 2000s, the well appeared to all but dry up as the ambitions of the games industry evolved through the decades. Recently, however, there's been a resurgence of skating games, and an audience made up of both oldheads and fresh-faced players alike has been showing up for them. It feels safe to say there's still an appetite for these kinds of titles. With the...
