Assassin’s Creed Mirage will celebrate the series’ roots when it launches later this year. It’s being designed to be a sort of homage to the very first Assassin’s Creed game, which debuted all the way back in 2007. So far, we haven’t seen all that much on the game, aside from a brief cinematic trailer

Unlike PlayStation, Xbox hasn’t made any concrete moves in the VR space, and that’s apparently because it doesn’t think the audience is there just yet. There’s a bit of a debate to be had about how successful VR is or is not at this point in time, and it seems like Xbox might also be

Over the past few weeks, Cyberpunk 2077 has been back on everyone’s lips. I got home from Summer Games Fest and immediately started downloading CD Projekt Red’s controversial RPG on my PlayStation 5, because – after what I saw in Phantom Liberty – I need a save file ready to go on my console. Some

Sony remains “happy” with its decision not to release its first-party games on PS Plus. “We’re happy with our strategy,” Sony’s vice president and global head of subscriptions, Nick Maguire, told Gamesindustry.biz, suggesting that the company has no plans to rework its subscription service to match that of competitor Microsoft, which does make all its

A recent rumour claimed that Illumination, Universal, and Nintendo were close to a Legend of Zelda film deal, but the Mario Movie producer has put that to bed. It is very safe to say that the Super Mario Bros. Movie has made a whole lot of money (it’s one of the best performing animated films

Halo Infinite was noticeably missing from the recent Xbox showcase, so Xbox head Phil Spencer clarified why that was. It’s safe to say that Halo has fallen from grace just a touch in recent years, made even worse by Halo Infinite, a game that has struggled since launch. But nonetheless, it is a tentpole of

Valheim now has difficulty options, enabling you to increase or decrease the challenge. According to developer Iron Gate Studio, easy mode offers “a more casual experience” that gives a “lighter, more accommodating adventure ideal for the pacifists and builders”, whilst hard mode “ramps it up for a hardcore playthrough”. Alternatively, you can select different aspects

Blizzard is working on a rather large update to Diablo 4, one that will have at least 13 pages worth of patch notes. You better make a cup ahead of time and grab a cookie or two to go with it, we reckon. Blizzard discusses some of the changes coming to Diablo 4 with the

We’re edging closer to an Assassin’s Creed Jade release date now that there’s a beta to sign up for – and it’s a game that many will be keeping close tabs on. While there’s been a lot going on within the Assassin’s Creed franchise this year, Assassin’s Creed Codename Jade is one of the newest

Game Boy Advance title Fire Emblem will be available for everyone with a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership starting June 22.

Titled Hildir’s Request, the update welcomes Hildir, a merchant who will provide you with a sizable wardrobe of cosmetics. The character will also send you on a quest to recover her store inventory. Sister of the

The gameplay reveal of Payday 3 during the Xbox Showcase was definitely one of the show’s biggest surprises. Payday is a popular series, particularly on PC, but it doesn’t often get the limelight in the mainstream. While the trailer was well put-together, it looked like, well, a new Payday. It was hard to appreciate the

Project 007 is the newest James Bond game from the company that bought us Hitman, IO Interactive. The project is currently in the early stages of development, so details are scarce, even down to the title of the game, but we’ve still scraped together a few bits and pieces.  So far, we’ve only had a

This Summer Game Fest is when FromSoftware showed off extended gameplay of Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon. Unfortunately, it was all behind closed doors, but the developer released a short cut of footage of the build the press and media got to see behind the scenes. That footage has now made its way to

Armored Core 6 Fires of Rubicon is officially in the works, and may be arriving sooner than expected. The main reveal came last year at The Game Awards, alongside a gorgeous new trailer. FromSoftware’s Armored Core 6 is a mech-based vehicular combat game that’ll see players return to the destroyed planet of Rubicon 3 to

Ten new indie games are coming to Xbox Game Pass following a rollercaoster of a not-E3 season. Each have varying release dates, but as some of the more hotly anticipated smaller games announced right now, it’s worth keeping an eye out for them when they eventually drop. This information comes via the Xbox Game Pass

Once you finish the Diablo 4 campaign, and reach level 50, the game starts to get progressively more grindy. You’re in the build-refining stage at that point, so you’d want to earn Paragon Points, and level up as quickly/efficiently as possible. Players have found that dungeons are the best way to do this, because of
