What is Rage 2? If you’ve ever lost sleep pondering over that very question, then Bethesda has just the remedy for you: a new trailer called ‘What is Rage 2?’. Brilliant! Essentially, the video squeezes in all the nuts and bolts of Avalanche Studios’ balls-to-the-walls shooter into around two minutes. The guns, gadgets, powers, vehicles, enemies, pretty much everything you want to know is in this trailer. Just think: this is the last time you’ll ever have to ask yourself what Rage 2 is all about....

Last month we sat down with David Fenner, writer and director of the upcoming tech-noir mystery game, The Signifier from developer Playme Studio and publisher Raw Fury. During that interview we were guided through the first section of the game as we explored the game’s world, background, and mechanics. Today, we have an exclusive look at the first 15 minutes of The Signifier gameplay courtesy of the developer. The world of The Signifier takes place in the not too distant future where incredible advances in AI and brain scanning technology have been made....

This The Simpsons review contains spoilers. The Simpsons Season 31 Episode 1 The title of The Simpsons, season 31, episode 1, “The Winter of Our Monetized Content,” may speak loudest towards where the series is headed. At 31 seasons, the series is now in fairly uncharted territory. No scripted show has lasted this long, certainly no comedy, a genre which has to stay fresh and relevant even as most of the jokes will become dated....

This The Walking Dead review contains spoilers. The Walking Dead Season 10 Episode 13 From his very introduction, Virgil (Kevin Carroll) has been untrustworthy. I mean, he’s caught skulking around Oceanside and stealing supplies, and he spins Michonne a story about living on an island that’s also a navy base that’s potentially full of weapons to aid them in their fight with the Whisperers. Weapons that, ultimately, they wouldn’t have needed, but would have been nice to have all the same....

From developer Spokko, The Witcher: Monster Slayer is a new ARG mobile game which tasks players with the tracking, studying, and slaying of creatures from The Witcher series. It’s like Pokémon Go, if the animals wanted to scoop out your entrails and decorate the trees with them. “The Witcher: Monster Slayer is a location-based augmented-reality RPG that challenges you to become a professional monster hunter,” read the description from the developer....

Pokemon GO-style Witcher spin-off, The Witcher: Monster Slayer, is being shut down in the middle of next year. Staff members at CD Projekt Red’s Spokko studio are also expected to be laid off. As announced in a news post, the game will be go offline on 30th June 2023. Monster Slayer will also be removed from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store on 31st January 2023, while all in-game purchases will be disabled on the same day....

In what is possibly one of the strangest “competitions” I’ve seen lately, Stronghold: Warlords is asking players to scream their lungs out to be in the game. I should explain. The east Asian castle-building RTS has had some difficulty getting people into the studio to record screams because of the current pandemic. As such, developer Firefly Studios is turning to the public to assist. Primal scream Rather than trying to drag people into a studio to record screams for Stronghold: Warlords, Firefly wants you to record them yourself....

On Aug. 12, Subnautica and Natural Selection 2 developer Charlie Cleveland’s alleged that G2A owes 10 times the $30,000 it spent on chargebacks. G2A offered a reply today via its blog, saying that it clearly doesn’t owe anything as the site didn’t exist during the time the chargebacks occurred. Cleveland fired back, saying the site existed at that time as go2arena. However, due to the evidence brought by G2A, Cleveland has retracted the claim — but he still doesn’t like G2A....

We have already covered some of the changes coming in Super Animal Royale version 1.3 such as the BCG weapon and the Hamster Ball nerf, but that’s absolutely not all there is to this update. With the Year of the Super Tiger event now started, Super Animal Royale players will be seeing red envelopes during regular games of any mode. Similar to how candy corn and candy canes were in past events, the red envelopes you earn during the game can be cashed in after for themed prizes....

Rapper and music producer T-Pain recently cosplayed as Tekken 7 character Leroy Smith. Leroy Smith was only announced as a Tekken 7 character at EVO 2019 in August and is not yet in the game, but he has quickly built up a fanbase with T-Pain and many other players enjoying his character design. On Instagram, T-Pain shared images of the Leroy Smith cosplay that he wore to Dragon Con, an annual pop culture event held in Atlanta, GA....

After all these years of Christopher Nolan bending time to his will in movie after movie, a Nolan film must now bend to the times instead. In news that hardly comes as a surprise, we can now confirm Tenet has been delayed in definitely from its Aug. 12 release date. The reluctant move by Warner Bros. comes after months of hand-wringing about the fate of Nolan’s original blockbuster event in which John David Washington appears to unravel a conspiracy involving a kind of time travel....

Nacon has finally revealed the setting for Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown, at Nacon Connect 2021. The series has been dormant for over 10 years, and it’s been 15 years since the open world spin-off, Test Drive Unlimited, launched in 2006. Anyway, the sub-series is coming back in 2022, and this time it’s is going in a different direction. Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown will take place in Hong Kong. The developer, KT Racing, was quick to point out that this might feel different for fans of the series....

Every new decade sees a new system released in the video game industry, and with it arrive new characters across multiple genres. The PlayStation 4 has dominated the console market since its release, with even simultaneous video game releases also considered to have the PS4 as its main console. For that reason, we’ll be considering characters that appear in multi-platform games to be PS4 characters since they are still available on this platform....

Nintendo is known for many things in the gaming sphere but nothing as much as having memorable mascots and characters. Over the last decade, many new characters have been added to the Nintendo stable across their games but some of the old ones have gotten quite stale. Even with Nintendo having a five-year dark period this decade (Wii U) the company still put out plenty of memorable titles. There are a plethora of new characters so it gets pretty boring seeming some of the old ones over and over again....

A router is a vital part of your network setup. It’s the backbone that holds everything together and allows you to actually use your Internet connection. There are many routers on the market, but not all are made equal. Some offer better networking capabilities than others, which means it’s important to know what you’re looking for when choosing one, especially if you’re looking for the best router for gaming. © GamePH/Shutterstock....

This review contains spoilers. “I’ve lived a long life,” says Hercule Poirot, with a weary drawl, during episode two of The ABC Murders. It’s very easy to believe him. Starting with a flashback that shows us Poirot as a younger man arriving in England as a war refugee and wondering just what to tell the officials in order to persuade them that he should be allowed to stay, and then moving through time to the old detective who rages that cruelty still exists in the world and he has not learned how to stop it, this is a Poirot who has kept as many secrets as he’s solved....

While VR hasn’t necessarily taken the world by storm (as some had hoped), it’s certainly given us some of the most memorable gaming experiences of the last few years. VR is arguably at its best in the RPG genre, but that doesn’t mean it has to be an isolating experience. There are quite a few VR games out there with asymmetrical gameplay, meaning one player is wearing the VR headset, while everybody else is using the screen; and this can be a fantastic set up for some fun parties....

This review contains spoilers. 12.4 The Tam Turbulence Would it be cynical to say that The Tam Turbulence was a last-ditch effort from the writers to link The Big Bang Theory with its spin-off Young Sheldon before it’s over? Probably. It’d probably also be the correct assumption, but the two aren’t mutually exclusive. The link is Sheldon’s ex-best friend Tam, who Young Sheldon viewers will know as Sheldon’s current, and only, friend in childhood....

The rollercoaster that is The Division 2 appears to have hit a new valley with its community. Its a bit of a surprise as Ubisoft seems to have generated plenty of excitement earlier this year following its reveal of the Warlords of New York expansion which brought players back to New York to take on Aaron Keener, a major antagonist that slipped through player’s fingers in the first game. Along with a new story line, the expansion was also joined by a hefty update which overhauled a good majority of the game including all things related to gear....

Video games have been around longer than many players have been alive. The same goes for long-running studios like Double Fine Productions, a developer celebrating its 20-year anniversary this month. The studio was formed back in July of 2000, creating some of the most memorable experiences in gaming. If you have yet to experience the listicle of titles from the San Francisco-based studio, now’s the time. Humble Bundle, in partnership with Double Fine Productions, has rolled out a new sale, bringing a laundry list of titles to you at a discount....
