With Xenoblade Chronicles 3 only a month away, the game starred in its own Nintendo Direct, featuring details on the characters, story, world, and more.

Remakes of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 and 4 were planned at some point until publisher Activision pulled the plug.

Darth Vader was apparently sick and tired of being trapped in Fortnite’s Battle Pass and is now waging war against all players. In a new update to the battle royale game, the Sith Lord is unleashed and he won’t hesitate to take you down, but if you can take him out first, you’ll get his

One of the ways Steam wormed its way into every inch of PC gaming was by releasing useful tools that make developers’ lives easier.

First-person tactical shooter Ready Or Not disappeared from Steam on June 16th, prompting a flurry of rumours as to why.

Throwback first-person shooters are penny a bushel at the moment, but while most aim to replicate the boomsticks of Quake, Agent 64: Spies Never Die mimics the PPKs and hacking gadgetry of another 90’s classic. Maybe the name gives it away: it’s Rare’s GoldenEye for the Nintendo 64, and there’s currently a demo available to
