Although Avengers: Endgame likely doesn’t need any extra press or promoting to break box office records, it appears that a Fortnite crossover might be in the film’s future. First was a datamine that suggested the Thanos Infinity Gauntlet mode will be returning soon and now a tease from Epic Games’ Donald Mustard suggests Fortnite might have even bigger plans. On Twitter, the Epic Games Creative Director posted a picture of actor Robert Downey Jr....

Amidst the highly anticipated trailer reveals for long running franchises, series reboots, and trilogy enders, a few new IPs were unveiled that left gamers intrigued, but also a bit confused. Among those games was Epic Games’ new IP Fortnite, which was introduced via a CG trailer comprised of some daytime fortress construction and nighttime zombie killing. Though Epic Games has revealed a few additional details about Fortnite since the VGAs, those pale in comparison to hearing about the game straight from the dragon’s mouth, or in this case from Cliff Bleszinski’s mouth....

The world of Eve Online is comprised of a number of players and NPCs hailing from different races. Each race within the game has a differing culture that shapes their motivations and ambitions when traveling the stars. Each of the four main races are further broken down by Bloodlines that add additional depth and complexity to each character. Fundamentally there is no difference game-wise between the races. A Caldari is just as capable as a Minmatar when it comes to space combat and Amarr’s are just as capable traders as Gallente....

The recent announcement that IO Interactive are releasing a new James Bond game, along with the fast-approaching release date of the franchise’s next film, No Time to Die, has brought the 00 agent’s gaming career back into the industry’s limelight.

As such, it seems that every studio and streaming service in the world is looking to adapt one video game or another. Seriously, the number of video game adaptations currently in some stage of development is insane. You may occasionally hear about some video game adaptation popping up here and there, but it’s hard to fully grasp the extent of this movement until you see every adaptation listed in one place....

Square has been responsible for some of the most beloved and memorable series in all of gaming, but it’s always going to be hard to top the heights that the Final Fantasy series has reached. The games have hit newfound levels of success and it’s for that reason that Final Fantasy has been able to split off into various spin-offs or other franchises that make use of the series’ name and lore....

Given the hype that surrounded Marvel’s Avengers in the build-up to the game’s launch, it was always likely to leave one or two players feeling disappointed. Few could have expected, however, just how underwhelming the final product would end up being. With repetitive and uninspired enemy designs, heavy grinding and monetization that requires a degree in accountancy to fully understand, Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics have a big job on their hands if they hope to salvage something from the wreckage....

Call of Duty is the largest and most successful video game franchise and a household name that gamers and non-gamers can easily recognize. Call of Duty as a franchise started back in 2003, but didn’t really become what we know it as today until 2007 with the release of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. This entry opened the floodgates of success and set a foundation for first-person multiplayer shooters in the world of consoles....

When it comes to anime video game adaptations, very few seem to crossover into the mainstream. Dragon Ball FighterZ set the fighting game community on fire and quickly shot into general popularity, but that was an outlier in the gaming world. For the most part, anime titles take the form of substandard brawlers or drawn-out gacha mobile games. That’s what made the prospect of a Fairy Tail RPG developed by Gust Co....

Regardless of which type of build the player chooses for their character, there are a bunch of fun perks that players can utilize in Fallout 4 to have a great time while exploring the wasteland....

It seems that while both the Xbox One and PS4 struggle with Fallout 4’s Far Harbor areas, gamers will get far better performance out of Microsoft’s console. Bad news for PlayStation fans, as it turns out that Fallout 4’s most recent expansion, Far Harbor, has significantly better performance on the Xbox One consoles than it does on the PS4. The performance drop is significant, with both consoles seeing fluctuation in frame rates in the new woodlands area....

Bethesda VP of marketing Pete Hines has taken to Twitter to confirm that there are no plans to bring the console commands found in the PC version of Fallout 4 to PlayStation 4 or Xbox One. Console commands are familiar to any PC gamer — they’re a rough equivalent to an in-game command line interface, which can allow players to tinker with the game. Over the weekend, Bethesda marketing VP Pete Hines stated that the studio discourages this sort of meddling in Fallout 4 and won’t port the functionality to consoles....

The Brotherhood of Steel is coming to the Appalachian Wasteland in Fallout 76’s Steel Dawn expansion, which launches for free on December 1. In Steel Dawn, players will explore new locations, meet new NPCs, acquire new high-tech weapons and armor, and build advanced underground C.A.M.P. shelters. The expansion’s main draw is the new Brotherhood of Steel questline that introduces the iconic Fallout faction to the Appalachian Wasteland. Dedicated fans of the franchise should know that while the Brotherhood is generally regarded as a benevolent faction, they tend to initiate violence and power struggles wherever they go....

Bethesda recently announced its “Summer Roadmap” for Fallout 76, highlighting quality of life improvements along with a host of new content. It’s been an arduous journey for Fallout 76 since launching last November. Early on in its life cycle the game was plagued with users exploiting bugs, such as duplicating weapons. People familiar with Bethesda understand that bugs are nothing new to its games, but since the title is not a single player affair, opponents were using these glitches to gain the upper hand....

A full squad of true Destiny Legends band together in Bungie’s sci-fi shooter to defeat Oryx in the King’s Fall Raid without using any bullets to take him down. Recently, a team comprised of CommanderCuesta, Doctor RDG, hackme24, OG Danimalls, Senior Snubby, and TheGrreatGatsby took on Oryx in Destiny, defeating the former Hive king without shooting a single round at any of the enemies in the King’s Fall Raid. As many fans of Bungie’s action-RPG will attest, defeating The Taken King himself is hard enough using standard tactics, but all of the Guardians mentioned above are obviously Destiny diehards, as the strategy they used took planning, skill, luck, and most importantly, a lot of communication....

In a video question-and-answer session, Diablo 3’s visual effects artist and senior game designer reveal new information about the title’s upcoming Necromancer class.

Blizzard mentioned its plans to launch the Necromancer class to the game as a DLC, and would be set for release sometime in 2017....

Whether you like it or not, it’s hard to deny that Omegamon (Ominimon in the English dub) is the starring face of Digimon. He’s featured in most of the recent games, having been Nokia’s partner in Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth. In Digimon World: Next Order, he features in the opening act. More recently, he saved the day at the end of Digimon Tri by becoming Omegamon: Merciful Mode. So it’s no wonder that it took just two episodes for him to show up in Digimon Adventure: (2020)....

Recently, there has been a bit of confusion about the release date of Digimon Survive, the upcoming tactical role-playing title being developed by Witchcraft. While the game’s official website still lists the expected release year as 2020, that date was recently changed to January 2021 on Toei Animation Europe’s website, though there was neither confirmation from the developer nor official announcement of a delay. Now January 2021 has been removed from the Toei Animation Europe site and no release date for Digimon Survive is listed at all....
