Popular WWE 2k24 modder Status was banned from the game and their creations taken offline earlier this week, with an in-game message stating that the cause was violation of the game’s End User License Agreement. Today, Status has been reinstated, after backlash to the decision caused #FreeStatus to trend on X for several days, with

The creators of Escape from Tarkov may be looking for their own escape at the moment, after enraging the extraction shooter’s community with a new top-tier edition of the game that’s come under fire for its extortionate cost, “pay-to-win” offerings and for U-turning on the promise of free DLC for buyers of a previous bundle.

Blizzard has decided to cancel this year’s BlizzCon. The company states the event will return in the future, but it plans to showcase upcoming games in a different manner over the coming months.  First announced in a blog post, Blizzard plans to share details on upcoming games like World of Warcraft: The War Within and

Manor Lords is obviously this week’s big survival-citybuilder game release, but I suspect Diluvian Winds is more my pace. It’s a “relaxing management game” about building a town for anthropomorphic animals around the foot of a lighthouse, although exactly how relaxing will depend on your ability to prepare for tsunamis and other weather emergencies which

The Fallout franchise is in the midst of a resurgence lately, thanks to the live-action series adaptation on Amazon Prime (which is good, by the way). Even though it’s been almost a decade since its release, Fallout 4 has rocketed to the top of sales charts like a mushroom cloud into the atmosphere, which makes

Dragon’s Dogma 2 launched a little over a month ago and has already managed to sell 2.5 million copies, but Capcom is still releasing updates to patch minor issues with the game. While a large volume of complaints have been about the lack of a performance mode, this update (like the last update) does not

Developer Trialforge Studio and publisher Tate Multimedia revealed Deathbound, a new Soulslike with a unique class-based twist, last August. At the time, PC was its only platform but now, Game Informer can exclusively reveal Deathbound will also come to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S day-in-date with PC later this year.  As we learned with Deathbound’s reveal

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds – aka the game that inspired and then was overtaken by Fortnite’s Battle Royale mode – is seemingly borrowing a leaf from its cartoony cousin’s playbook by resurrecting its original map.

Royale-battler Fortnite will soon allow players to hide a handful of emotes the developers concede are “sometimes used in confrontational ways”. This includes the emote reported as the most-used in Fortnite’s seven-year history. That’s either a worrying indictment of the game’s players, or a (more?) worrying indictment of universal human psychology. What is the offending

Taming a wolf in Minecraft is one of the game’s simplest joys, and no matter how many times I start a new world, I always hoard bones in case I encounter one. But once you’ve adopted a canine companion, you probably hide them away in a house for safe-keeping, shielding them from the horrors of

Epic Games has revealed a new setting for Fortnite that allows players to hide emotes the company considers “confrontational.” This doesn’t outright ban these emotes from the game and those with them can still use them, but if someone has this new setting turned off, they won’t see others use them.  Called “See Confrontational Emotes,”

The former multiplayer lead for RTS giant StarCraft 2 is working on a new real-time strategy game that he promises will mark a “paradigm shift” for the storied PC genre.

With the introduction of Fortnite Festival, Epic’s rhythm game within the chart-topping Battle Royale, there’s more incentive than ever for musicians to have their likenesses added to the game. The latest of these artists is Billie Eilish, who announced her collaboration with the game on social media earlier today. Eilish is not just getting a

Ahead of Final Fantasy 14’s next massive expansion, Dawntrail, arriving this summer, Square Enix recently put out a graphical benchmarking tool. Dawntrail’s benchmark is especially noteworthy as it’s the first time we’ve really been able to put the MMO’s much-anticipated graphical update arriving with 7.0 into practice and see what sort of demands it might

Eiyuden Chronicles, the RPG series that’s effectively a sequel-slash-spiritual successor to nineties and early noughties JRPG classic Suikoden, will continue with a sequel despite the death of its creator earlier this year.

PlayStation and K-Pop singer NakedBibi, or Bibi for short, have teamed up to create a new song and music video inspired by Stellar Blade, the upcoming action game from developer ShiftUp. Stellar Blade hits PlayStation 5 exclusively next week on April 26 so this new track, appropriately titled “Eve,” is coming at a perfect time
