Gorgeous action-adventure Kena: Bridge of Spirits has been rated for Xbox

Helldivers 2 has achieved remarkable success following its launch earlier this year, partly due to its availability on PC. Helldivers 2, a cooperative third-person shooter developed by Arrowhead Game Studios and published by Sony, launched simultaneously on PlayStation 5 (PS5) and PC in February 2024. This departure from Sony's traditional release strategy aimed to tap into the growing PC gaming market.

Fortnite, Grand Theft Auto 5 and a trio of Call of Duty titles were consistently the most played games across consoles in the US last month.

While Dragon’s Dogma 2 topped US software charts for March 2024 per Circana’s Matt Piscatella, Helldivers 2 wasn’t far behind. It ranked in second place and is still the best-selling premium title of the year to date. Furthermore, it’s the seventh best-selling title (in terms of lifetime dollar sales) published by Sony, despite only being on sale for two months.

Earlier this year, multiple leaks and reports claimed that Hi-Fi Rush was headed to the Nintendo Switch, and though Tango Gameworks’ acclaimed rhythm action game has received a multiplatform launch, it’s only released for PS5, with there being no official word on it coming to Nintendo’s console.

Hi-Fi Rush has been rated in Europe for Nintendo Switch.

The franchise features an incredible variety of antagonists, but one particularly strange detail regarding a group of villains has gone mostly unremarked upon for decades. Although recent titles have tended towards having more individual true villains, a trend that has produced some of ’s most terrifying characters, the traditional «Team» still has a role to play in any given region. However, while all Teams have their own unique aesthetic, one also has a much more subtle, and ironic, quirk visible on close examination.

Publisher Serenity Forge and developer Hack The Publisher have announced Centum, an “unreliable narrative-driven adventure” game for Xbox Series and PC (Steam). It will launch this summer.

Despite having a packed roster of projects in the works, Marvel Studios faced another setback as they were forced to scrap yet another project. A planned series featuring a fresh character was reportedly axed, allegedly due to the poor reception of another film.

Fallout games have never really been put together particularly well, but that's what gives them a lot of their charm. Would Fallout New Vegas really be the same game if Doc Brown's head didn't creepily spin around from time to time, or if bodies didn't clip into the ground slightly and result in a horribly malformed ragdoll of a human being? Basically, they're very buggy, which makes the fact that Fallout 3's sunlight has been secretly broken ever since launch not all that surprising.

Blizzard just announced it will not be holding a BlizzCon event in 2024. Though this unfortunate news may disappoint fans, Blizzard will be appearing at Gamescom, Dreamhack, and other live events instead.

Sega has declared 2024 the year of Shadow the Hedgehog, which means fans of the Ultimate Lifeform (as he likes to be referred to) have plenty to look forward to in the coming months. That, of course, includes Keanu Reeves voicing him in Sonic the Hedgehog 3, which will release in theaters worldwide this December, but Sonic fans in the gaming space won’t be left behind either.

Kena: Bridge of Spirits, the acclaimed action-adventure title that launched exclusively on PC and PlayStation consoles in 2021, seems to be finally making its way to Xbox. While there's been no official announcement from developers Ember Lab or Microsoft, the game has seemingly been rated by the Entertainment Software Rating Board, or ESRB, in the US for Xbox Series consoles. Kena: Bridge of Spirits initially launched as a timed exclusive on PS4, PS5 and Epic Games Store on PC.
