New Pokédexes mean new novelties and Game Freak's Pokemon Scarlet and Violet sticks with that tradition with Tera Types. Similar to X and Y's Mega Evolutions, Sun and Moon's Z-Crystals, and Sword and Shield's Dynamaxing, the Terastal phenomenon is a new mechanic in the Paldea region that remixes the battle system and how it works. It pins type charts to movepools and introduces an entirely different form of discovery for new Pokemon such as Charcadet, Finizen, and Tandemaus. Terastallizing a...

GameSpot recently sat down with Ragnarok director Eric Williams who spoke to Lucy James and Tamoor Hussain about the key points of the sequel. The discussion is full of spoilers.
In the interview, Williams talks about Tyr's...
Though video games have been around for a while now, some still associate the medium with children's entertainment only. However, new data from the NPD group suggests that the number of middle-aged gamers has increased rapidly in recent years.
The above data shows the number of US video game players aged 45+ that played games in 2018, 2020, and 2022--the numbers are 64.9 million, 82.9 million, and 87.0 million respectively. That jump from 2018 to 2020 is about a 28% increase, whereas the...

According to the Korean video game online community Ruliweb, Team Ninja head Fumihiko Yasuda attended a panel at the G-Star conference in Busan, South Korea. He reportedly showed a slide at the end of his panel with pictures of Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive with the caption "The future of Team Ninja - Reboot of popular series."
In a statement to VGC, Koei Temco said, "We have nothing to announce...
Destiny 2's Season of Plunder is almost over, and ahead of next year's Lightfall expansion, all eyes are on Season 19 and how it'll lead into the next year of content. Unlike Season of the Risen, which ran for a whopping six months, Season 19 is sticking to a breezy three-month period in which to tell its story and introduce a few changes to the Destiny 2 sandbox. While Bungie has yet to spill the beans on what players can expect in the narrative department from the new season, it has lifted...
The Walking Dead: Last Mile's first season is over. Not to be confused with The Walking Dead on AMC--which also just wrapped up its series last night after 11 seasons--Last Mile is a hybrid interactive series and game exclusively on Facebook. After a four-month run spanning three acts, several major character deaths, and millions of views, the series' inaugural (but potentially not final) season has drawn to a close.
For such a massive social experiment, the intrigue is really in the...
The Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass will soon be halfway to the finish line, as the third of six eight-course waves has been confirmed for a December 7 launch date.
Wave 3 of the Booster Course Pass will, like the previous waves, add eight more courses to the Mario Kart 8 roster, with all of them coming from previous games in the franchise. Three of Wave 3's tracks first debuted in Mario Kart Tour on mobile devices, two more come from Mario Kart 7 on 3DS, and the final three come...

Hearthstone's new expansion, March of the Lich King, is introducing a whole new class with the long-awaited appearance of the Death Knight. But as always it's giving the existing classes some new tools, including a set of cards that synergize around Shaman having big big beefy minions to dominate the battlefield into the late game. GameSpot can reveal not one or two but four of those cards, which all look to work together nicely.
In the current meta, the Shaman typically focuses on smaller...
Hey, did you know that Bloodborne is still a PlayStation exclusive? Of course you do--the internet will never let you forget. Recently, Sony deleted a Bloodborne-related tweet after a legion of fans dogpiled it in the vain hope that an announcement was in the works. Indeed, it doesn't take much for the 2015 game to trend on popular social media sites like Twitter. Even a pointed tweet from a noted figure in the Souls community like Lance McDonald can stir up the hornet's nest.
But while the...
We all know the drill by now. You want to be the very best, like no one ever was, so you set out on a cross-country journey to catch and train adorable monsters and rise to the ranks of Pokemon Master. It's a tale as old as time, or at least as old as 1996, and Pokemon games rarely venture outside this comfortable template. That made it all the more surprising when Pokemon Scarlet made me actually care and look forward to two of its three main story paths.
Spoilers follow.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are here and each version has something unique to offer the completionist trainer. If you're anything like me, you probably want to know the differences between the two versions to inform your purchasing decision (or to know what to look out for in your travels). While each version will have easy access to unique Pokemon not available in other versions, Scarlet and Violet's exclusives extend beyond that. Players will attend different schools, have a different...
