Well, Blade is coming to Marvel Rivals on Aug. 8 — and based on his early gameplay footage, perhaps the wait was worth it. Surprising absolutely no one, Blade’s set to be a Duelist who excels at close to mid...
The Sims 4‘s latest expansion pack, Enchanted by Nature, has received quite a bit of promotion from publisher Electronic Arts since its release in July, but its latest promo for the game — an FKA Twigs music video made in-game and sung in Simlish — isn’t as out of left field as it might sound. Set to a Simlish version of “Perfect Stranger,” the music video is a collaboration between...
Clair Obcur: Expedition 33 was released in April as a relatively polished game. Yet, bug fixes and minor improvements are always welcome, and that’s what Wednesday’s patch 1.4.0 brings. Unlike the game’s first major patch that nerfed Maelle (but not really), patch 1.4.0 centers around quality of life improvements, the most notable being a battle-retry prompt after being defeated by the game’s many, many tough bosses — especially you know...

As it is in many Soulslikes, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers expects you to die multiple times, but it brings the Madness system to make all the effort pay off in one way or another. Madness can make you stronger, but at the expense of raising the difficulty bar of already hard encounters. That’s why learning how Madness affects the game and how to respond to it is fundamental to enjoying and...
