The open-world action game has come a long way since release.

When Generation Zero launched four years back, it sure left a lot to be desired. The game felt mechanically clunky and there were a myriad of other issues that just left a bit of a sour taste in a lot of players' mouths. Since that release, developer Systemic Reaction has released numerous updates, fixes, and quite a bit of additional content (some free, some paid) that have pushed the game to sitting at a comfy "Mostly...

The ending came abruptly and impacts all regions.

Over the weekend, several people noticed they were no longer able to pick up either Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass for the low, low price of $1 (USD).

Head of global communications at Xbox, Kari Perez, says, "We have stopped our previous introductory offer for...

The release shifts from April to May.

Though Hogwarts Legacy has been out for a little while now on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, the last-gen release was nowhere to be seen.

Now, that April release has been pushed back further, meaning that PlayStation 4 and Xbox One owners won't get to play until May 5, 2023.

The official Twitter account for Hogwarts Legacy says that this delay is...

The classic (and difficult) RPG is coming to several modern platforms.

THQ Nordic says that the classic RPG Risen is coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch on January 24, 2023. This action-RPG dates back to 2009 when it was first released on PC and the Xbox 360 and is a damn fine RPG that doesn't shy away from being brutally difficult at times. The Risen titles are essentially the spiritual successor to the equally difficult Gothic franchise.

Weirdly, THQ...

Halo Infinite's multiplayer has a lot of problems. From the lack of content, to server stability, to the absolutely awful experience system. Thankfully, 343 Industries will tackle at least one of those issues with the upcoming Winter Update. Sure, 343 Industries did a bit of tweaking to this system in the past, but it really wasn't enough.

When the Winter Update drops on November 8, Halo Infinite players will get to...

Technical support will continue but that's it.

CD Projekt Red confirms that they have decided to end development of new content for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of Cyberpunk 2077.

343's handling of the Halo franchise has left a lot of fans very angry.

343 Industries released the latest roadmap for Halo Infinite today and the news is not exactly great. The roadmap showcases multiple delays, a small amount of new content, and even the outright cancellation of an anticipated feature. The ever shrinking fanbase for Halo Infinite's multiplayer have not taken too kindly to any of this.
