Since Microsoft’s executives bought Activision Blizzard for an unbelievable $69 billion, they have been quick to say that they don’t like Sony’s marketing deal with the Call of Duty franchise. Phil Spencer, the boss, told IGN that he wants to let players choose “how you play your games” and that his company won’t do “slimy platform things.” He didn’t directly ...

Today, Tomb Raider Legend was added to PS Plus Premium for PS5 and PS4 users. It can also be bought separately for $20.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater’s release date sneakily showed up on US store GameStop’s website and was pushed to a now-deleted Twitter post. However, the company says the November 17th listing was “incorrect.” IGN wrote about how, in a follow-up post, GameStop didn’t bother to explain.

Publishers are trying more and more to give folks early access to single-player and online games that people are looking forward to. In some cases, we’ve even paid extra for the chance to do so.

Read More »Don’t get excited, because the gameplay teaser for Dragon Age: The Veilguard makes the game look sick
We got our first real look at Dragon Age: The Veilguard, which had just been given a new name, at the Xbox Showcase. The CGI video BioWare chose was quickly torn to pieces by hungry fans. This is likely why the developer gave a sneak peek at the game before tomorrow’s longer presentation. It looks a lot like the bad, ...

Read More »The PS5 should improve its ability to keep players informed about important events happening within their games
The PS5 is a remarkable console, however, we can’t help but notice that its operating system lacks the modern game-centric design we were hoping for. It’s quite ironic to think about Sony’s emphasis on live services. Helldivers 2 has already made a big impact, but it’s eagerly looking to incorporate Concord or Fairgame$ into the mix. Here’s the deal: whether ...
