As Masahiro Sakurai recently noted in one of his videos, there are video game projects that get canceled all the time. You often don’t hear about it due to how things are in the gaming industry or because they’re canceled so early into production that it “doesn’t matter” to many that they were canceled in the first place. In the case of The Last Of Us Online, however, it’s a different story. Naughty Dog wasn’t just working on the game, it’s been in the works for years! It started out as an expansion of sorts for their second game but soon became its own property that would stand on its own.

, the world's first 3D survival horror game that inspired an entire genre, is back with a modern adaptation that honors the original game's creepy roots. THQ Nordic is setting out to recapture the haunting and inquisitive gameplay of the 1992 game. The 2024 remake staring David Harbour and Jodie Comer has even gained the admiration and approval of the series creator, Frédérick Raynal, an excellent sign for survival horror fans.

Those hoping for Halo Infinite Campaign DLC will be disappointed to learn that 343 Industries is focusing on the game's multiplayer.

The original Alone in the Dark was revolutionary, for the time. Skeptical as I am about attempts to play on classic stories and high-profile names, I recently spent time with Pieces Interactive and THQ Nordic's upcoming reboot of the series, one that revisits the setting of the 1992 game that practically invented survival horror. To my pleasure, I found that, true to their word, it wasn't an attempt to recreate or reboot the first game. Instead, it's something different. It's a new and fascinating story drawing on the same elements that I love: cosmic horror, detective fiction, psychological horror, and the good old Southern Gothic.

If you want to break rocks or defeat powerful enemies, you must use a Bomb Flower in . While there are a limited number of Bomb Flowers available to gather, there is a way to farm them from specific locations. Bomb Flowers are particularly handy as they explode on impact and are best used against tough bosses and areas blocked by breakable rocks.

There's just something special about the dystopic bloodsport in recently released first-person shooter that feels different from other FPS titles. It's not totally clear whether it's because of the club-bumping EDM soundtrack or Vegas-inspired fluorescent UI teasing people to get more cosmetics, but the game is certainly not boring. Developed by Embark Studios, was announced and released at The Game Awards 2023 for PlayStation, Xbox, and PC on December 7, 2023.

It’s official. THE FINALS is out now.  The announcement was made during The Game Awards 2023 earlier tonight in what is arguably the best tactic for developers to capitalize on hype: the ole’ “ and it’s available now! ” approach. We had another opportunity to go hands-on with THE FINALS just last week, and here are some of our key takeaways from Embark Studio's first debut title.
