Aquaman 2 won’t have a Batman in it after all

As part of its ongoing Disney 100 celebrations and the upcoming World Princess Week, Disney princesses are all the rage right now, and a new Beauty and the Beast realm is on its way to Disney Dreamlight Valley to help celebrate. A release date window has now been confirmed.

Baldur's Gate 3 is an extremely raunchy game. You'll struggle to find another RPG out there that lets you romance a bear, let alone be proud of it, but Baldur's Gate 3 put it front and center in its pre-release marketing. It has a lot more naughty scenes than just that, so many that developer Larian Studios actually hired a voice actor just for all the sexy noises.

Microsoft was a no-show at E3 2023, which subsequently got canceled, but it's planning on having a huge presence at Gamescom in Germany later this month.

"Cozy MMO" is a burgeoning new genre in the indie space that I'm fully onboard with, and the latest game to spawn from it is a solarpunk-themed adventure taking Kickstarter by storm.

Disney Dreamlight Valley is the ultimate cozy experience, merging the simulation game genre with our beloved childhood characters. If you’ve ever played Dreamlight Valley, then you know that it provides countless hours of town-building fun alongside some of the cutest Valley residents yet. From iconic faces such as Mickey Mouse to more recent fan favorites like Vanellope, DDV offers no shortage of wholesome content. If you’re like me, then you adore princesses and will be overjoyed to hear that Belle from Beauty and the Beast is joining the game’s ever-expanding cast.

Earlier this year, EA said that Star Wars: Jedi Survivor would only come out on the latest PS5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles in order to take advantage of the latest tech on those consoles. The developer has now changed its tune, however, announcing in an earnings call that the title will come to PS4 and Xbox One consoles after all, The Verge has reported.

Call of Duty is bringing back companion pets to fight alongside you in Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer and Warzone 2, and don't worry, they can't be hurt.

I Am Future has caught my eye, making an impression on me that many other survival games fail to. It merges more wholesome qualities from some of my favorite games ever, like Stardew Valley, with a more serious setting from iconic post-apocalyptic RPGs such as Fallout to create a uniquely cozy experience. I Am Future manages to turn what would otherwise be a grim situation into an opportunity to start fresh, as it introduces you to a flooded world in which you must become self-sufficient atop the once-magnificent city’s ruins.

The arms race to beat Elden Ring using the most mystifying input method possible continues. A dance pad? Passé. A guitar? Easy mode. Your actual, literal brain? Well we all beat Elden Ring with our brains, didn't we? Most of us just had a gamepad or keyboard as an intermediary.

The best Batman games will put you into the shoes of Gotham's favorite hero, and there's quite a variety to sink your teeth into now, even following some serious delays on titles like Gotham Knights.
