Perfect Dark, canceled in July amidst a wave of layoffs at Microsoft, almost got a second chance at life thanks to Take-Two, according to a new report. However, talks to see the game be revived have apparently fallen through.
According to Bloomberg (and corroborated by VGC), Tomb Raider developer Crystal Dynamics, which was working with the now shuttered Xbox studio The Initiative to develop the Perfect Dark reboot, could have continued working on the game. Crystal Dynamics' parent company...

To celebrate the Black Ops 7 announcement, Activision is offering up 20 free battle pass tier skips for anyone who simply logs in to Black Ops 6 or Warzone now through September 16.

Battlefield 6 won't have ray tracing, as the team instead is focusing on performance and optimization, according to the game's technical director.
In an interview with ComicBook, Ripple Effect (one of the studios that comprises Battlefield Studios) technical director Christian Buhl said it doesn't have plans for ray tracing at launch or in the near future.
"That was because we wanted to focus on performance," Buhl said. "We wanted to make sure that all of our effort was focused on making...
If you rolled credits on Donkey Kong Bananza, chances are you got through it with little frustration and extraneous effort. By many accounts, bosses take seconds to plow through, mining gold is seemingly unlimited, and overall the game is "too easy." But the phrasing is somewhat reductive, not just in relation to Bananza, but when discussing difficulty in games as a whole.
The stigma of "too easy" might indicate that a game is hand-holdy, not trusting players to act or think for themselves...
World of Warcraft developer Blizzard has taken aim at one of the biggest WoW private servers, suing its creators for alleged copyright infringement and citing recent efforts to "cannibalize and disrupt Blizzard's WoW player community."
The server in question is Turtle WoW, an ambitious private-server version of 2006-era WoW that has been active since 2018 and features fan-made expansions, additional playable races and classes, and new zones. Turtle WoW's creators recently made waves when it...
Gameplay footage of what appears to be Battlefield's new battle royale has surfaced online in an apparent leak, highlighting some features that could distinguish it from the competition.
About nine minutes of footage, watermarked by a Bilibili user called Misaka_Mikoto_01, shows what looks like an early build of the Battlefield battle royale. The build could be from the latest Battlefield Labs test, which began late last week. The beginning of the video includes the loading screen and...
Sony's upcoming PS5 and PC live-service game Fairgame$ has lost another top developer. Game director Daniel Drapeau has left developer Haven Studios to join WB Games Montreal.
Haven founder Jade Raymond left the company in May. It was reported at the time that Fairgame$ was delayed to 2026 after a playtest proved unfavorable.
Drapeau left Haven weeks ago, and said in a LinkedIn post that they're joining WB Games Montreal as a creative director for an upcoming project. "Let's do this!"...

People who bought the more expensive Superstar ($100) or Leave No Doubt ($150) editions can already begin playing via early access--the game actually unlocked back on August 29 for these people.

The next big chapter in the Helldivers 2 saga is now live--with detailed patch notes to boot--and with the armies of Super Earth being joined by new Xbox recruits, it's time to explore uncharted territory. Into the Unjust will see Helldivers venture into subterranean Terminid lairs, hostile territory that cuts troopers off from their usual Super Destroyer support unless they find a gap in the structures. Just what secrets lie behind the mysterious Gloom shroud that has been seen on several...
In July the United Kingdom's Online Safety Act came into effect, requiring that any form of online services feature age verification checks if these services contain content that could be deemed "harmful to children." This law has affected a range of websites, including social media sites like X, as well as sites that contain adult, 18+ content, and even Xbox will require age verification in the UK come next year. Now, Valve has introduced its own age verification process that requires users...
There are more ways than ever for consumers to get their hands on video games, but Xbox Game Pass remains one of the most popular methods. Game Pass is one of the most successful video game subscription services on the market, and that doesn't appear to be changing anytime soon. The service boasts a library of hundreds of games that players immediately gain access to upon becoming a subscriber. However, Game Pass is continually adding more games all the time, growing the library little by...
Long gone are the days of No Man's Sky being billed as a massive disappointment, as not long after its ninth anniversary the game appears to have no problems pulling players back in. Last week the game's latest major update, Voyagers, went live, adding in a laundry list of features as the game's updates tend to do. With that, it also seems to have brought in a large influx of players, as the game has hit its highest number of players since launch.
Hello Games co-founder and No Man's Sky...
Team Cherry has revealed that Hollow Knight: Silksong will cost $20. In addition to the price point, the developer also noted that the sequel will go live at 7 AM PT / 10 AM ET on September 4, so there's no reason to stay up late September 3.
The launch price and release times were detailed over the weekend by Team Cherry on X. Silksong costing $20 could come as a surprise for some, since it's only $5 more than what Hollow Knight retailed for since arriving in 2017. The hype for the sequel...
Even more evidence has come to light that suggests the next Nintendo Direct event could take place very soon. Reliable leaker NateTheHate2 has backed up the initial reports of the next Nintendo Direct coming in September, saying, "Yes, there is a Nintendo Direct in September."
But when? The leaker said fans can expect it during the second week of September. He said it's likely to happen on September 11 or 12. That matches up with a previous report that the event could happen on September...
Like previous Borderlands games, Gearbox Software has big plans to keep players invested in Borderlands 4 well after they've wrapped up the campaign and all of its side missions. Free and paid DLC are on the cards, as players can expect new expansions, new Vault Hunters, and an endgame that will be updated weekly.
For the paid content, Story Packs will flesh out the planet of Kairos with post-launch narrative content. Two Story Packs are scheduled to be released in 2026, with the first one...
Xbox Series X|S users had to wait an entire year for Black Myth: Wukong to make the leap from PlayStation 5 and PC. Unfortunately, it went through some major compromises and a big visual downgrade according to a comparison by Digital Foundry.
Digital Foundry notes that the Xbox Series X port of Black Myth: Wukong can run at a higher resolution (1296p) than PS5 (1080p), which gives it a slight advantage in clarity and detail as well as its ability to deliver 60fps. However, that comes at...

There's something deliciously smug about wielding the best Terraria ranged weapons. While melee players are sweating it out in close quarters and mages are chugging mana potions like they're at an all-night rave, you're standing comfortably out of reach, raining down arrows, bullets, or bees with barely a scratch on your armor. It's the class for anyone who enjoys watching health bars melt while staying three steps ahead of the danger.
That's not to say it's easy. Ranged combat is a...
A simple class that's also the most reckless, there's a skill curve to the best Terraria melee weapons. Instead of hiding behind a staff or bow, you are charging face-first into danger, trading your health bar for glorious damage. It is the class for anyone who loves brute force, big crits, and feeling like a walking blender.
Getting up close and personal isn't just about swinging blindly. Terraria's melee arsenal is surprisingly diverse, ranging from oversized swords that cleave through...
