A listing for the upcoming adventure was spotted on the retailer’s website earlier today, citing a November 10 launch on PS4 and Xbox One, and November 30 on Xbox 360 and PS3. Telltale has previously said, however, that the game will be “made available first as a digital download, and then, at a later date and where platform permits, as a physical disc at your favourite retailer,” suggesting it could be due to launch even sooner on digital platforms....

The terminally ill Borderlands fan from last year is still around and even got a copy of the finished game on release day. Last we heard from Trevor Eastman, he was battling stage 4 stomach and liver cancer with the help of 2K games and a pre-release copy of Borderlands 3. After Eastman’s tragic story blew up on Twitter, a company representative flew out to see Trevor and brought with him a trial copy of the game....

The next Tetris 99 event is a crossover with one of Nintendo’s most highly-acclaimed titles of 2019, as players will be competing on a stage based on Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Tetris 99 usually only allows players to use a single stage, but it has been possible to unlock more by competing in online events. The previous stage themes that have been used in Tetris 99 events include a retro-themed Tetris stage based on the original Game Boy title (including the classic music), while the most recent stage allowed players to win a theme based on Splatoon 2....

You can’t have The Legend of Zelda without the legendary princess herself. And there is a good reason why her name is in the title of practically every game. Between her rank, her divine powers, and her influence on Link, Zelda is a pretty awesome character. Whether she’s the kind-hearted princess who believes in good, or the stern general who’s not afraid to kick some monster butt, Zelda isn’t someone you should mess with....

To say that the Super Nintendo Entertainment System has a storied history would be the understatement of the century. This system, which was released on 21st November 1990, is arguably one of the most influential pieces of gaming hardware ever to exist. © robtek/Shutterstock.com From its groundbreaking graphics and sound capabilities to its vast library of games, such as Final Fantasy III and Super Mario World, there’s no denying that this system is one of a kind....

It’s a new year and I’ve got a whole bunch of interesting people lined up for the Eurogamer Podcast already. Last year was great, relaunching the show, and the six episodes we’ve had should really give you an idea of where I want it to go. (Remember to check out the episode with departing editor-in-chief Oli Welsh if you haven’t already, and then chase it with the Martin Robinson episode, because he’s our new editor-in-chief....

When you consider that the original Greatest American Hero series was an early project for the great Stephen J. Cannell, this becomes quite a television pedigree. If you aren’t familiar with the original show’s concept, it involves a nerdy high school teacher who finds himself in possession of a red superhero suit that grants him powers when worn. He promptly loses the instruction manual, and hilarity ensues. This time around, though, the plan was for the he to be a she, an Indian-American woman named Meera....

Naughty Dog will offer a fresh update on The Last of Us: Part 2 before E3 2019, according to ResetEra tipster ‘Aokiji.’ The forum user has a good track record so far, having leaked Sony’s State of Play event before the format holder announced it last month. Speaking in the thread, the industry insider noted ‘considering we’re getting an official TLOU2 update before E3, [it] would be really weird if it wasn’t 2019 now wouldn’t it[?...

We already knew that The Last of Us Part I was going to make its way to PC at some point, the only question was when. Announced at The Game Awards, Naughty Dog and Sony revealed that the remake of their post-apocalyptic game would be coming to PC on March 3, 2023. The Last of Us Part I features huge graphical improvements from the original PS3 release, with better character animations and more realistic facial expressions, as well as much better AI behavior....

Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has become Japan’s best-selling entry in the venerable action-RPG series in 19 years. Not only that, but it’s currently sitting pretty in second place only to 1998’s Ocarina of Time as the biggest thing to come out of Hyrule in the past two decades. According to Japanese Media Create data (via resetera), Link’s open-world behemoth has notched up an impressive 957,752 units in Japan as of last week....

This article contains spoilers for Avengers: Age of Ultron and the wider MCU. After the commercial and critical success of The Avengers, it seemed Joss Whedon could do no wrong. The writer-director was quickly snapped up by Marvel to serve as a creative consultant on their entire Phase Two slate, as well as being put in charge of the follow-up to one of the biggest films of all time. And when Avengers: Age of Ultron was announced at 2013’s San Diego Comic-Con, the room went nuts at the thought of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes taking on one of their iconic comic book nemeses....

On N7 day last year, Mass Effect fans got something they’ve been wanting for quite a while. BioWare revealed that the first three games in the legendary franchise would be remastered and re-released as one massive collection. The scope of the game’s remaster — what will be updated, how extensive changes will be — hasn’t been revealed yet. However, an apparent leak from those infamous retailers in Singapore and Indonesia has apparently revealed the release date for Mass Effect: Legendary Edition....

This article contains spoilers for Avengers: Endgame. We have a completely spoiler free review right here. From Ant-Man to the Wasp, Avengers: Endgame is a veritable who’s who of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Almost every character who has appeared more than once turned up for one last hurrah, whether it was to say goodbye for good or simply close the book on the whole Infinity Stone saga. But what about the ones who were alive but DIDN’T return?...

Psychological horror game The Medium is the latest in a long line of video games to be getting a TV adaptation. Bloober Team shared the news in a blog post earlier today, where the company announced it had signed a cooperation agreement with Polish visual arts complany Platige Image to bring its game to a new medium (see what I did there). This upcoming adaptation will be helmed by Tomasz Bagiński, whose resume includes Netflix’s The Witcher....

The Outer Worlds was released back in October to mostly wide praise for its engaging narrative and diverse freedom of choice. While these mechanics, as well as its other RPG elements, are great, one thing that the game can’t quite be praised for is the game’s character customization options. In short, it is tough to make your character look like a human being. To the knowledge of players, we are put in the shoes of humans....

Domestically titled Yakusoku no Nebārando, Japan’s The Promised Neverland debuted in the pages of Weekly Shōnen Jump in August 2016 in serialized manga form from writer Kaiu Shirai and illustrator Posuka Demizu, followed less than three years later in early 2019 by an anime adaptation, which solidified the burgeoning franchise’s popularity. Set in the year 2045, the story stands out with its deceptively dark premise, initially showcasing a sanguine tale of abandoned children living a pampered, idyllic existence in an orphanage....
