Supermassive Games has announced that upcoming spook em up The Dark Pictures: Man of Medan is to recieve two multiplayer modes for you to enjoy the scares with friends. First up, Shared Story mode will allow you to play through the story online with one other player. At times, you’ll be working together playing as certain characters and making choices that will affect both players. However, at certain points you’ll also split up to do your own part of the story independently from the other person – and you won’t know what they’re up to until you get back together; if you manage to make it back to each other at all....

Ubisoft continues to support Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 through the year, this time with an update that adds two completely different things to the game. Title Update 6.1 is a December update, and that means a Christmas theme. Many live service and mobile games celebrate the holidays with special costumes and items. The Division 2 is joining them by giving player and enemy alike Santa Hats. Defeating these festive foes will result in them dropping an event-exclusive snowball shooter....

As the seasons change, so too do the free games on offer from the Epic Store. It’s generally not easy matching free content to the seasons, but Halloween is one holiday that the world of gaming pairs well with. The demand for horror and festive appearances also go hand in hand the live-service nature of games today. Games like Fortnite, Apex Legends, Dead by Daylight, and even For Honor all have events going on, and that’s just to name a few....

The coronavirus pandemic has not only been wreaking havoc with our day to day lives and the world economy, it’s also affecting the entertainment industry in ways you can see and ways you can’t. The ways you can see, like how all filming and a chunk of post-production were shut down back in March, thereby affecting TV schedules. For example, even though The Walking Dead season 10 finale has been filmed, it still hasn’t been completed....

Paramount Plus has announced that the Halo television series will finally be arriving on screens on its service in the US from 2022. The series had previously been said to be debuting on the Showtime network, as they are the production company behind the adaptation. However—as reported by Deadline—it was announced during the ViacomCBS Streaming Event last night that the show will now be heading to the Paramount Plus service in 2022....

Starward Industries has dropped a new teaser trailer for upcoming first-person sci-fi thriller The Invincible. The teaser introduces us to our two main characters, Dr. Yasna and Astrogator Novik. They’re stuck on the planet of Regis III, and are trying to escape. We’ll be playing as Dr. Yasna, and as the trailer shows she and Novik are certainly not the only two on this planet. First announced last September, the game will take place in an alternate future where digital technology doesn’t exist....

Gateway countered the notion that tech companies were sleek, futuristic, or humorless by starting on a cattle farm and maintaining that charming farming look for their entire history. Gateway was hailed as a working-class hero in the 80’s and 90’s, offering affordable products that made them a trustworthy brand. Gateway failed to maintain its quality standards in the midst of astronomical growth. While sales surged, product quality dipped, and shipping became a nightmare, not to mention awful assembly....

This The Romanoffs review contains spoilers. The Romanoffs Episode 7 Seven episodes in, I think I’m ready to call It on The Romanoffs. Despite an all-star ensemble, exotic locations, and a concept that theoretically should have freed up Matthew Weiner to tell ambitious, diverse stories, The Romanoffs is a staid, uninspiring slog that positions Weiner’s last great TV project as a miraculous fluke. Don’t expect any critics to still be talking about this one come next month’s End of Year debates, unless they’re discussing the year’s biggest disappointments....

This The Terror review contains spoilers. The Terror Season 2 Episode 2 Two episodes in, The Terror: Infamy is a completely different beast than its predecessor, tackling a horrific moment in American history that makes last year’s cannibalism-themed massacre on ice feel almost tame in comparison. While the men of Captain Sir John Franklin’s doomed expedition to the Arctic found solace in simple pleasures (mostly from a bottle), the Japanese residents of San Pedro enjoy no such comforts in “All the Demons Are Still in Hell....

Necrophages are among the most iconic and most terrifying creatures a player can encounter in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. These undead beings are a plague found in cemeteries, battlefields, crypts, and places of death. Yet even the most inquisitive player may not know a lot about these horrific creatures. Where they came from, their strange behavior, and the fact that they’re based on real-life organisms. If you’re interested in learning more about these feasters of the dead then here are some things you may not have known about Necrophages....

The Xbox One version of The Witcher: Wild Hunt features dynamic resolution scaling, CD Projekt RED has announced, allowing the game to switch between 900p and 1080p on the fly. The method allows the Xbox One version to output a full HD image on occasion, matching the native 1080p resolution of the PS4 game. The wording of CD Projekt RED’s statement, however, suggests that players may need to download a day one patch to implement dynamic scaling....

Few fantasy RPGs are as critically acclaimed as CD Projekt Red’s open-world epic, The Witcher 3. Released on PS4, Xbox One and PC back in 2015 and later ported to the Nintendo Switch in 2019, The Witcher 3 is widely regarded as one of the best games of the last generation. Now, following the Polish studio’s recent announcement that a free next-gen upgrade is just around the corner, many folks are wondering when is it coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S?...

The year is off to a decent start as far as the free games on the Epic Games Store go. Star Wars Battlefront II, Rage 2, Galactic Civilizations III, and Metro: Last Light Redux characterize the AAA freebies.

Supergirl Season 6 is a go! The CW has granted early renewals to 13 of its already-running series for the 2020-2021 season (that’s right, folks—we’re in the 2020s now). Kara Danvers and friends will live to fight another day—you know, after they get out of this Crisis On Infinite Earths mess. It’s a good day to be a fan of CW’s superhero line-up. In addition to Supergirl, Batwoman, Black Lightning, Legends of Tomorrow, and The Flash were all granted additional seasons....

Tekken 7 boss Katsuhiro Harada has revealed that a new patch has been released for the celebrated scrapper, balancing a number of key characters following the launch of Season Two last week. One of the biggest issues addressed is Lars, who was buffed like most other Tekken 7 brawlers albeit perhaps a little too much. Another issue was with Bryan Fury, with players unable to use his infamous taunt to the same effect as before....
