Diablo 4 is an upcoming title in Blizzard’s long-running action-RPG series. Like its predecessors, the game will pit players against demons and monsters as they hack, blast, and loot their way through the story. Visceral combat and exciting loot have been the selling points of the Diablo series for over a decade, and we expect the fourth game to be no different. As players embark on their quest to thwart the plans of the demon Lilith, they will pick one of five classes to play as....

This Prison Break review contains spoilers. Prison Break Season 5 Episode 2 “I wanna order a pizza.” You know, I was ready to be much harsher on this episode than I was on the premiere but how can I hate anything with that line? Alright, so this episode slowed things down a bit. That’s understandable. The premiere had to get a lot of pieces in place so now we get to explore it all....

Like all World of Warcraft expansions, Warlords of Draenor is aiming to shake up nearly every aspect of the decade-old MMO when it launches this fall. The level cap will increase to 100, old character models will get a long-overdue makeover, and a new zone will introduce ten levels worth of quests and lore to tackle. In addition to the many additions coming to the PvE side of the game, players who live for the on-going Horde versus Alliance war are in for some changes, as well....

9 Erwina Prowley Erwina Prowley, commander, leader, hardened soldier. She is an ever-present mentor to Walker, and always teaching him what to look for next. With an attitude of “no guts, no glory,” Erwina has earned her commander-hood with many battles fought against the Authority. Though not as physically present as her daughter Lily is throughout the game, Erwina certainly left her mark everywhere Walker steps, and certainly wherever there is a power-giving Ark for the player to find....

Red Dead Online is introducing two new Legendary Animals that players will be able to track, study, and hunt - the Legendary Mud Runner Buck and the Snow Buck. Red Dead Redemption 2’s online component now also features the Naturalist role, thanks to the game’s recent update. Said update also introduced a bunch more new Legendary Animals to the game, and now we have a further two to add to the already-extensive list....

For those in need of a break in between escape attempts from the ever-shifting chambers of Hades’ domain in the breakout Supergiant Games hit, other interpretations of the Greek pantheon may be of interest. Recent Netflix original anime series Blood of Zeus certainly offers a version of the classic mythology that hasn’t been seen before, at the least. With its anime inspired art style produced by Powerhouse Studios, the team who works on the Castlevania anime, it’s a genre cartoon for adults that sheds a grim light on well-known stories....

PlayStation has been sponsoring the Fiesta Bowl since 2016 so it’s only natural, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, that it would fill the stadiums with fittingly-themed cardboard cut-outs. There are plenty of fan-favorites in the seats, whether it’s Ratchet & Clank or God of War’s Kratos. For context, the Fiesta Bowl is a college football game that has been running since the 60s. It was renamed, in 2016, to PlayStation Fiesta Bowl following its sponsorship....

Memory loss is a great condition to set up a mystery. In the point & click horror game Dark Room, amnesia is used to unravel the main story. In the Saw film series, antagonist Jigsaw would capture his victims and leave them to awaken within his ‘game,’ with no clue as to how they got there. Judging from the teasers, Dark Room’s mystery will use clues to kick-start the protagonist’s memory, in the same way that Jigsaw would use fragments of his victim’s past to make them understand why they had been captured....

Since their debut in Pokémon Gold & Silver, Shiny Pokémon have remained a valuable trophy for trainers. Whether it’s in the mainline games, or spin-offs like Pokémon Go and the Pokémon Let’s Go series, capturing them is a deeply complex activity with tons of strategy needed to get specific shinies. Of course, not every trainer has the time or energy to do this, and thankfully there are several points in the mainline games where you can find some oddly-colored Pokémon without encountering them randomly....

Grass-type Pokémon are a very popular type in the Pokémon franchise both because there are many unique designs themed around them and because they are generally very powerful. Grass-type Pokémon appear in abundance in every region around the Pokémon world, and it is no surprise since their biology is usually themed around plants. Pokémon, including Treecko and Oddish, have gained fame in the franchise over the years for being both powerful and unique, despite the fact that they’re only in their first stage of evolution....

Pokémon in Pokémon GO are challenging to catch. For starters, some Pokémon are only obtainable through Raid Battles, which can sometimes necessitate a group to finish. Also, Pokémon that are region exclusive adds global challenges for Pokémon GO players. Ash Ketchum didn’t catch Pokémon by staying in the vicinity of his neighborhood. He searched “far and wide,” challenging every Gym Leader who crossed his path. Niantic expects you to do the same to capture the rarest and most powerful Pokémon....

Eggs have always been a big part of the Pokemon GO experience, with players walking thousands of real miles each day in the hopes of hatching a rare Pokemon for their collection. Although it’s far more likely to hatch a common creature - another Poliwag or Krabby - there are some Pokemon that players may be surprised to learn can actually hatch from eggs. These Hyper-Rare tier hatches have just a 0....

Pokemon GO players are about to have a very busy summer thanks to Pokemon GO Fest and plenty of other events taking place over the next few months. The community is expecting new content throughout the coming season and the latest datamine teases not only a big Battle Raid event, but also some new items that may trigger long-rumored evolutions. The datamine comes from reliable Pokemon GO source Chrales and details upcoming Research Tasks for Raid Week 2019 in addition to three new items....

The latest game in the Pokemon series, called Pokemon Quest, came as a bit of a surprise when it was announced and released for Nintendo Switch in May. The game, which gives the Pokemon world a blocky makeover and offers a pared down Pokemon battling and collecting experience, has also been released on mobile devices since. However despite the game coming out of nowhere, Pokemon Quest has managed to be a huge success, The Pokemon Company has announced....

There are plenty of video game movies coming out over the next couple of years and oddly enough, none of them are being directed by Uwe Boll. Some projects like World of Warcraft and Call of Duty are making progress with their adaptions; others like Asteroids are merely in the early development stages. One that is almost finished shooting is Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. While a few stills from the film have been released, there has yet to be a teaser trailer....

Even Eve fans are likely to have forgotten Project Nova, CCP’s ambitious first-person shooter set in the Eve Online universe. Initially revealed back at Eve Fanfest 2018, it was quietly canceled in February of last year along with Fanfest 2020. It wasn’t the coronavirus that killed Project Nova, however, but poor reception from fans after closed alpha testing. That’s according to CCP Games PR head George Kelion, who spoke to MCV about the ultimate fate of Project Nova....

The PlayStation 5 is set to build on the impressive legacy of the franchise and the console looks set to be a departure from the past. Many players have been eagerly waiting for news about how games would utilize the confirmed changes for the PS5 such as the DualSense controller. It now appears that players won’t have to wait too much longer to see what games are coming to the upcoming console, although it is unclear whether the games showcased will feature all of the new PlayStation 5 technology....

Sony confirms that the PS5 will not have a web browser at launch, and may never have one at all. The release of the PS5 is almost upon us. By this time tomorrow, some people in some parts of the world will have their PlayStation-created next-gen console. People in other countries will have to wait another week. Regardless of release date, some people have already gotten to grips with the PS5 and started to discover what the console can do, and also some things that it can’t do....

Despite Rainbow Six Extraction sharing some similar basic gameplay with Rainbow Six Siege, Ubisoft is confident the two projects can easily coexist on the market, finding their own different audiences. Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Extraction is a more modern take on tactical FPS, with the ability to play the game solo or in co-op. Creative director Patrik Méthé, in a conversation with Gamespot, said Extraction and Siege are “both very different games offering their own challenges and pacing,” and Ubisoft has no worries regarding the two possibly cannibalizing each other’s audiences....

An Insomniac Developer has found himself an interesting and funny side project. Josh Leman, who assisted in the development of Insomniac’s Spider-Man PS4 and Ratchet and Clank 2016, is currently developing a new Ratchet and Clank game in Dreams, making this one of the rare occasions a professional developer uses the game to create their own public fan-project. Leman is developing the Ratchet and Clank game with the help of assets created by the Ratchet and Clank community, and he’s been at it for some time now....
