After five long years (and one exceptional piece of DLC), Horizon Forbidden West (the sequel to 2017’s Horizon Zero Dawn) is finally here. While many PlayStation fans who have been patiently waiting for this game will find an experience that justifies the wait, the one thing they won’t find is a game that feels substantially

Lost Ark includes tried-and-true ARPG like class abilities and loot but plays with the genre formula through the use of creative MMO-style concepts like a collection of songs that allow you to perform a variety of unique spells and actions. Throughout Lost Ark, players can collect a library of melodies that essentially act like extra

When independent developer Studio MDHR released Cuphead in 2017, gamers all over the world were astounded by the daring art style and fluid gameplay the title offered.

When Horizon Zero Dawn was released in 2017, gamers were blown away by the ambitious open-world title and quickly started begging for more. Their prayers were partially answered with the DLC The Frozen Wilds, but many in the new franchise’s ever-growing army of fans still wanted a “proper” sequel. Now, the momentous occasion of Horizon

Simply put, Cyberpunk 2077 was a mess at launch. The game’s various bugs and technical problems left a sour taste in the mouths of many early adopters. Fortunately, CD Projekt RED has been busy patching the game (as well as fending off lawsuits), and Cyberpunk 2077‘s latest update might have finally produced the kind of

Activision Blizzard is currently under investigation following accusations of harassment, discrimination, and fostering a hostile work environment. You can read more about the investigation here. Call of Duty: Warzone‘s Pacific Season 2 update isn’t just one of the biggest updates in the history of the free-to-play battle royale; it’s an update that is guaranteed to shake

As is contemporary MMO tradition, Lost Ark usually tells gamers where to go in order to complete a quest. However, one notable exception is the mission “Dalian Orchard’s Secret,” which forces players to seek out a hidden warehouse with only context clues. Alternatively, you could always turn to a guide much like this one. Before

Before your Lost Ark journey properly begins, you’re going to have to answer the question that is already stumping millions of players: “What is the best class in the game for me?” So far as that goes, Lost Ark is one of those RPGs that benefits from shockingly well-balanced classes that all bring something interesting

Lost Ark is quickly proving to be one of Steam’s biggest hits of 2022, but the game’s complicated release structure has many people wondering what time the red hot title will fully be released and when they’ll be able to join the millions that are already exploring the game that has a lot of people

Dying Light 2: Stay Human is finally here, and the only thing more epic than this open-world RPG that takes hundreds of hours to properly complete has been the discourse over whether or not this game was worth the wait. It’s not exactly surprising to see a major new release prove to be divisive, but

Whenever Nintendo and Game Freak release a new Pokémon game, you usually expect high sales at best and decent sales at worst. However, Pokémon Legends: Arceus has blown past most expectations and seems poised to influence subsequent franchise entries. Of course, that raises an important question: If Pokemon Legends: Arceus truly represents the future of

MMOARPG Lost Ark is quickly grabbing the attention of millions of gamers looking to join what could very well prove to be one of 2022’s biggest PC games, which means that millions of gamers are also wondering what the best class in the game is and what the best way to build that class is.

Soulsborne games all sport an open-ended combat system that lets players tailor their equipment, spells, and stats to their preferred playstyle. However, each title offers audiences some guiding advice in the form of a class’ starting stats and equipment, and Elden Ring is no different. Recently, a small selection of gaming news outlets and content

Diving into Lost Ark can be an overwhelming experience, but don’t be surprised if the first thing you find yourself wondering is “How do I change these mouse controls as fast as possible?” Lost Ark’s mouse controls are…strange. The game’s basic mouse controls require you to attack with the left mouse button and move/interact with

Elden Ring might be the next entry in FromSoftware’s long line of Soulsborne titles, but it has something the previous games do not: George R.R. Martin. When FromSoftware initially announced the game, Martin’s name was front and center. Thanks to new developments and recent previews, we may finally have seen a few examples of what

Recently, many gaming news outlets and content creators got to dive deep into the world of Elden Ring thanks to a gated, six-hour sneak peek. Now that those lucky few have shared their experiences, we know a little more about one of the most intriguing locations on (or perhaps just slightly off) the game’s open-world

This article contains spoilers for the first six episodes of The Legend of Vox Machina. There’s an old adage in tabletop roleplaying circles: no one is as interested in your character and campaign as you are. But the popularity of podcasts like Adventure Zone and Critical Role have revealed that with the right storytellers and

It’s almost impossible to remember a time when Batman wasn’t cool. When I was little, Batman was primarily known as the straight-laced crimefighter in endless reruns of the 1960s Batman TV series starring Adam West, Burt Ward and a seemingly endless, brightly colored array of “special guest villains.” Kids loved Batman, and not grasping the

While Pokémon Legends: Arceus takes place before Pokémon entered the game world’s global zeitgeist, players still have to catch ‘em all. You’re not allowed to tackle (and capture) the game’s final challenge, Arceus, until you have a complete Pokedex. Unfortunately, this means you have to catch all 28 Unown. Few Pokémon are as mysterious as

Like many of the best RPGs ever made, Dying Light 2 features multiple endings that change based on the decisions you’ve made throughout the game as well as the decisions you make during the adventure’s climactic moments. While the game does a pretty good job of giving you the ending that best reflects the choices

Early into Pokemon Legends: Arceus, players will meet Warden Mai, who challenges them to a battle. She only has one Pokemon on her team, Munchlax, but this little Pokemon is tough, which shouldn’t be too surprising since the creature evolves into the rotund powerhouse known as Snorlax. Witnessing Munchlax’s destructive power up close is probably

Even though Pokémon Legends: Arceus isn’t even a month old, Nintendo and Game Freak are already rolling out the Mystery Gifts to keep players hooked. However, the first wave of gifts appears to be gated by country, and it really seems like some players will end up receiving the better overall present. Recently, Serebii.net revealed

Dying Light 2‘s weapon degradation system will be familiar to anyone who has played pretty much any survival game in the last 10-15 years or so, but the initial lack of an obvious way to repair your weapons will likely confuse those who suddenly find themselves wondering who they’re supposed to maintain some of the

Dying Light 2‘s massive open-world will reportedly take you hundreds of hours to fully explore, and I wouldn’t be surprised if more than a few of those hours are spent finding the game’s various hidden safes and trying to unlock them. While Dying Light 2‘s safes are almost always in relatively close proximity of their

Few franchises have dominated the gaming and pop culture landscape like Pokémon. For more than two decades and eight generations, gamers have continued to flock to the series in the endless quest to catch ‘em all. And that’s no small task now either, with the total number of Pokémon now at nearly 900. But as

Dying Light 2 has just been released, and critics love the zombie survival/parkour simulator. The game is wowing audiences with its slick action and tense atmosphere, which players can either experience alone or with a friend thanks to the sequel’s unlockable co-op mode. Much like the original Dying Light, Dying Light 2 is an open-world

Pokémon Legends: Arceus changes up the standard Pokémon formula in many ways. In the runaway hit new game, players can explore a large, untamed world and catch Pokémon without even fighting them, but one of the most important alterations in the new game is the addition of requests gamers can complete for fun and prizes.

Underneath all the zombie-slaying and parkour traversal, Dying Light 2 is fundamentally an RPG, which means that quite a bit of your time in the game is going to be spent unlocking new skills in order to optimize your character build. Skills in Dying Light 2 are split between two trees: Combat and Parkour. As

The main Pokémon games are nothing if not reliable. Whenever a new entry hits store shelves, it’s a safe bet the title will provide an enjoyable experience that ferries gamers of all ages to different digital towns in the eternal quest to catch ‘em all. Pokémon Legends: Arceus is a surprising break from that tradition,

Pokémon Legends: Arceus offers a massive world filled with grand adventures, but it seems like a lot of players haven’t had a chance to properly explore the game yet simply because they can’t solve an early sidequest that asks you to find a Pokémon with “Three leaves.” The sidequest in question (“The Search of Bitter
