The developers at Bungie release a brand new preview trailer that details all of the features in the forthcoming April update for its action-MMO, Destiny. With Destiny’s big April update set to release tomorrow, Bungie has decided to compile all of the details regarding the major new features set to be included with a fresh preview trailer. The video touches on practically everything short of bugs and glitch fixes, as it provides a rundown on the title’s revamped Strikes, new bounties, and perhaps most significantly, the increase of the Light Level cap from 320 to 335....

343 Industries confirms the content arriving with the Hog Wild expansion for Halo 5, including new Warthogs and additional armor sets for the first-person shooter. Since the launch of Halo 5: Guardians, developer 343 Industries has been keeping busy with a range of free expansion DLC for the game. Fans of the first-person shooter have already had plenty of updates available for the title, including the Memories of Reach DLC that arrived at the beginning of May, bringing with it gear last seen in Halo: Reach....

Only a few hours remain before the next console generation begins with the launch of the Xbox Series X, which means only a few hours before Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition brings a load of next-gen upgrades and new content to the hit 2019 action game. To mark the occasion, Capcom has released the launch trailer for the new version, which focuses on its main attraction, the ability to play as Dante’s katana-wielding twin brother, Vergil....

Stomp fools to death as a giant armored dinosaur in Dino Squad, the new mobile PvP shooter. Dino Squad was a short-lived cartoon series in the late 2000s where high school kids got doused in toxic ooze that makes them mutate into dinosaurs. It’s also a new mobile game from Pixonic where you play as an armored dinosaur armed with missile launchers. The two are hardly at all related except they both feature dinosaurs....

Disney Infinity details the beginning of the end of online functionality for the toys-to-life franchise, and reveals that many gamers won’t even be able to play offline. After years of success, fans of the toy-to-life trend were shocked to learn that the Disney Infinity series would be ending abruptly. Disney Interactive has now gone on to officially announce when Disney Infinity online services will end, and that some gaming systems won’t have access to the game at all anymore....

Although Disney is hoping to reopen the Disney World and Disneyland theme parks as soon as possible, one analyst thinks that won’t be earlier than January of next year. With health precautions and concerns over the current pandemic, the belief is that Disney will be better off waiting until 2021 to reopen Disney World and Disneyland. The Disney parks have been shut down in late March. In a message to clients, UBS director of investment research John Hodulik, said he believes that both health and economic considerations will force companies like Disney to keep their theme parks closed until 2021 at the earliest....

Video game company Double Fine will reportedly not be publishing games any more, after having been acquired by Microsoft last year. The announcement made at E3 last year that Double Fine was due to join Xbox Game Studios left a question hanging regarding the fate of Double Fine’s publishing arm, Double Fine Presents. Now, however, it’s been pretty much confirmed that Double Fine Presents is in the process of winding down....

Dragon Age 2 may have been the least popular of the main games, but it certainly had its memorable characters. Anders is a mage, healer, and the catalyst to the Mage Rebellion that changed the world (for better and for worse). He was actually first introduced in the Originsexpansion, Awakening, but his character changed a lot by Dragon Age 2. He was sharing his body with a spirit of Justice, and would sometimes lose control....

Today, Bandai Namco Entertainment accidentally announced the forthcoming release of a new fighting game called Dragon Ball Fighters, which is to be developed by Arc System Works – that is, the studio behind the generally well-received brawler Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR-. As it happens, Bandai Namco prematurely put out a Japanese press release dated for June 12 that was obtained and translated by the fine folks at Gematsu confirming that the fighting game based on the popular anime series is set to release worldwide in early 2018 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One....

When Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot was announced, it was met with an even mix of both excitement and reservation from fans. The story of Dragon Ball Z had been adapted countless times before, but this time things seemed a bit different. Sure enough, the game was a huge success and is the best recreation of the show in video game form to date, but its post launch support has admittedly been somewhat lacking....

The next mobile Dragon Quest game has a release date in Japan, as Square Enix has announced that it will launch on July 16. The Dragon Quest series has mostly consisted of turn-based RPGs, but there have been tactical RPGs based on the games in the past, such as Dragon Quest Wars for the Nintendo DS. Dragon Quest Tact is an upcoming tactical RPG for mobile phones, where the player control groups of iconic monsters in the series as they do battle....

It’s been nearly nine years since the last Dragon’s Dogma, and since then, it’s helmed its very own anime series on Netflix. At long last, a sequel is reportedly underway, and a well-known Capcom leaker has stated that it’ll be running on the Resident Evil engine. This is known as the RE Engine which, bizarrely, doesn’t mean Resident Evil but rather ‘Reach for the Moon.’ It’s certainly a reach in its naming, but it powered the likes of Devil May Cry 5 and Monster Hunter Rise....

All the power outlets you could need Chunky power stations can be really useful, but there’s a lot to be said for how much sleeker the RIVER mini is. Lightning-fast charging The superb power that RIVER mini offers means that quick charging is guaranteed. X-Boost EcoFlow has made sure that the RIVER mini can power bigger tools when it needs to by building in what it calls X-Boost Technology. Totally free of distractions Of course, when you’re out and about, running devices from the RIVER mini, you don’t want to drown in the noise of a loud generator running....

At the beginning of the year Bethesda announced the Greymoor expansion for Elder Scrolls Online, one that will explore the “Dark Heart of Skyrim.” However, the game’s director Matt Firor posted an update Wednesday telling fans that ZeniMax Online Studios will release the expansion in PTR on April 20, a week later than expected. This delay comes as a result of the crew working from home during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic....

While a lot of fighting game tournament players are committed to their characters of choice, this competitor truly channeled the spirit of Street Fighter’s Ryu. The ultimate honorable competitor. Needless to say, the face of tournament play has been dramatically changed of late. The scourge of COVID-19 has caused widespread disruption throughout the world, and in the industry, its influence has been felt in a myriad of ways. Delays to anticipated releases (such as Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course), developers and publishers offering a permanent switch to remote work and, of course, the eradication of in-person tournaments....

Last month, Ethan Hawke signed on to play the lead villain in the upcoming Disney Plus series Moon Knight. The four-time Oscar nominee recently discussed the Marvel project while promoting his second novel “A Bright Ray of Darkness.” Moon Knight tells the story of Marc Spector, a soldier who fled to the United States from Czechoslovakia during World War II. He becomes the god of the moon after surviving a near-fatal experience in an Egyptian tomb....

While Grand Theft Auto 6 has yet to be announced, it is, for all intents and purposes, currently in the works. Most recently, this was confirmed by a Rockstar Games employee who was interviewed by Kotaku over the change in Rockstar’s “crunch culture” following Red Dead Redemption II’s release. But, this begs the question: how much do we know about the game? The Story And Characters The Grand Theft Auto franchise is an open-world series that involves the player roaming urban settings while committing often heinous acts in the pursuit of chaos and riches....

Sega’s Yakuza series has been slowly building in popularity in the west ever since the release of Yakuza 0 in early 2017. Since then, Sega has kept up a steady release schedule for the franchise, usually dropping more than one title every year since 2017. Now, the franchise is set to be reborn with the release of Yakuza: Like a Dragon, which is acting as a soft reboot for the series following the end of Kazuma Kiryu’s saga with Yakuza 6: The Song of Life, and the release of the first title in the spin-off series Judgment in 2019....

Bethesda reveals that the next Fallout 4 expansion is getting a sneak peek via Twitch, with a stream coming from the publisher next week that details what players can expect. Contrary to what the gaming world might seem to indicate over the past few days, there are, in fact, other games people can enjoy other than the ridiculously popular Pokemon GO. Some of those titles experienced a similar level of success upon their release, too - it can be easy to forget amidst the buzz of all the newer games on the market that Fallout 4 was one of last year’s most important video game triumphs....
