10 Years Later, 2K Revives Its Professional Tennis Franchise With A New Name

It's been nearly two decades since the release of the PSP, but its GPS app surprisingly still functions. Nostalgic PSP fans might not even recall that the handheld had any navigation capabilities, as it never quite caught on and became mainstream. Between smartphones and in-car navigation apps, standalone GPS devices are already beginning to feel like a thing of the past, much less when attached to a game console from several generations ago.

Hi-Fi Rush, one of Xbox Game Pass' biggest hits during 2023, received a new update on Thursday, January 25. Hi-Fi Rush's recent update gives users new cosmetics, fixes various bugs, and improves controller support for PC players.

PlayStation has announced that Horizon Forbidden West is hitting PC in just two months' time.

Massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) Final Fantasy 14 is putting a new twist on its classic Moogle Treasure Trove event, adding fresh challenges and bad puns. 

Of the exclusives launching this year, Stoic Studio’s Towerborne is a dark horse. It’s a side-scrolling hack-and-slash rogue-like but features massively multiplayer online elements, set in a fantasy world where humanity fights for survival.

2024 looks fairly similar to last year for shooter games fans in that there are very few big names on the list. We still don't know exactly what id Software and The Coalition are doing, while DICE's next Battlefield isn't launching any time soon. There will be a new Call of Duty game, of course, but it's hard to get too excited about it after Modern Warfare III.

Palworld has already sold over one million units across PC and Xbox Series X|S, a mere eight hours after its early access release. 

Following a recent update, a new weapon bug is ruining matches in The Finals and Embark Studios has acknowledged the issue and provided some insight into plans for dealing with it. This week, The Finals received update 1.5, which was a big step for improving a lot of aspects of the popular online shooter. One of the bigger additions through this update was the first limited time game mode called Solo Bank It, which tweaked the rules by pitting 12 players against one another to see who could acquire and bank 40,000 in cash. Ditching the team strategy, each player in this mode is fighting individually for glory.

Top Spin, the beloved tennis video game franchise that has not seen a release in over a decade, is getting a revival. Publisher 2K revealed Tuesday that TopSpin 2K25 will arrive soon, pairing the announcement with a teaser trailer. The development also comes in the heels of the ongoing Australian Open, capitalising on the tennis fever the first Grand Slam of the year brings with it. TopSpin 2K25 will be helmed by Hangar 13, the 2K-owned studio behind the recent Mafia games. 2K have not specified a release date or a window, with the game slated to be “coming soon.” With the 2K25 moniker, however, one can expect a release sometime later this year, as is the norm with other 2K sports game franchises.

Plants vs Zombies is back with a brand new mobile game.

Tower of Fantasy is heading to new terrain in the next major update, “Beyond Horizons”, launching v 3.6 on January 30th. There’s an all-new map, Aquaville, a new main story, “Impending Storm”, new quests, and a looming battle with the Hive Mother. A new world may just be on the horizon after all.

The so-called restoration loop exploit in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim is still alive and well even as the game is pushing 13. This well-publicized glitch has long allowed players to trivialize Skyrim with ridiculously overpowered items.
