Experience the festival of your nightmares in Dead Island 2: SoLA

Summertime usually brings with it beer gardens, (the occasional day of) sunshine and music festivals. The latter being the chance to forget troubles of the real-world and just exist in a several day long party. But what if you annual pilgrimage to your festival of choice turns sour when say, the uninvited undead come and crash the party? Find out how you would cope in Dead Island 2: SoLA DLC, out now for Xbox, PlayStation and PC.

Final Fantasy XIV Online: A Realm Reborn Review

Final Fantasy XIV Online on Xbox is built for newcomers.

Head to Neomuna on Neptune with Destiny 2: Lightfall

For years, Destiny players have been increasing their light level to best the many thousands of aliens out there. But with this latest expansion, it is time for Guardians to embrace their dark side for real. Destiny 2: Lightfall is out today for Xbox, PlayStation and PC.

Like a Dragon: Ishin! Review

Whilst many of the components of Like a Dragon: Ishin! will immediately feel familiar, that is no bad thing.

In-depth look at Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League continues to creep up in the release calendar. Coming from Rocksteady Studios, anticipation has rightly been high. But up until now, there has been very little in the way of gameplay and what the game will actually involve. That has all changed now, so let’s take an in-depth look at what’s to come.

Build the airport of your dreams in SimAirport

Ok, so it is highly likely that you haven’t thought of what your dream airport would look like if you had creative control. But what if I told you that you could make an absolute fortune if you had a successfully running one? I bet now you are interested. Find out how in SimAirport, out today on Xbox after a very positive run on Steam.

The Urban Veteran: Pro Pack is out now for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II

As part of Season 02 for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and Warzone 2.0, a whole host of new DLC will be released alongside the traditional battle passes. And you can bet that if a price can be put on it, it will be showing on the Xbox Store soon. One of those is the Urban Veteran: Pro Pack and it is out today for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II on Xbox, PlayStation and PC.

Scaramuccia arrives in Hunt: Showdown – Commedia Della Morte DLC

Whilst it doesn’t get the numbers or the plaudits as other online multiplayer games out there, there is no denying that Hunt: Showdown doesn’t have a loyal fan base. And their reward today is another new Hunter with a mask that is sure to put the willy’s up even the more seasoned hunter. The Commedia Della Morte DLC for Hunt: Showdown is out now on Xbox, PlayStation and PC and introduces Scaramuccia.

Lootbox Lyfe+ shows a world post-lootboxes

Anyone that has ever bought a lootbox will know that disappointing feeling you get when a pull isn’t quite as good as you were hoping for. Some would argue it is a feeling similar to losing a bet in a bookies. Thankfully then, the whole world isn’t obsessed with them. If they were, forgetting to eat and live would be a very real prospect. In Lootbox Lyfe+, out today on Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch, we get a glimpse of that world.

Looking for Aliens Review

Looking for Aliens has a real quirkiness to it, one that the hidden object gameplay lends itself to rather well.

We Need To Talk About Video Game Remakes

We need to talk about video game remakes. They’re not everyone’s cup of tea, but why then are so many appearing?

OddBallers Review

OddBallers is perfect for a free-to-play transition or as an Xbox Game Pass staple.

Touchdown Pinball Review

You can’t argue with the price of Touchdown Pinball, but it very much feels like a case of getting what you pay for.

Early access for Like a Dragon: Ishin! starts now

I said after the launch of Lost Judgment and its simultaneous worldwide release that the Yakuza/Like a Dragon franchise was now a global thing. That is further cemented today by the release of a game that when originally released it was in Japan only. This remake corrects that for all the fans around the world. Early access for Like a Dragon: Ishin! begins now on Xbox, PlayStation and PC.

CometStriker DX is a bullet-hell featuring a cool dog

Few game genre names get their point across as well as ‘bullet-hell’. Action-adventure is the most generic description ever and calling a game stealth just means I won’t have the patience for it. But the term bullet-hell just perfectly conjures up what you are about to deal with. And also means I won’t have the patience for it. CometStriker DX is out now on Xbox.

Another heroic fox is here to save the day in Rise of Fox Hero

Has any other animal been represented as much as a fox in videogames? Other than humans obviously. I would put a healthy amount of money on foxes coming out on top. And here it yet another one. Rise of Fox Hero is out today on Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch and PC.

Stop the undead in Road Stones

The undead have awakened once again, but this time they are keeping to the roads and paths. No shortcuts for these walkers! Use the undead’s penchant for sticking to the path against them in Road Stones, out today on Xbox and PlayStation.
