The Last of Us Part II seems to have divided fans – with Abby getting the most hate. But she should be key to The Last of Us 3 and the upcoming Season 2 of the TV series.

An ambitious fan group is currently working on a female protagonist mod for Persona 3 Reload. Atlus' Persona 3 Reload launched on February 2 to an overwhelming amount of hype and critical acclaim. Reload is a remake of the original Persona 3, focused on recreating the 2006 RPG and updating it to play more like modern Persona games. Reload has also added a number of elements from past re-releases, though ended up omitting certain elements, much to the disappointment of fans.

One of the more heartbreaking revelations of Naughty Dog's recently released Grounded II: Making the Last of Us Part II documentary was the extent to which unwell The Last of Us fans took their grievances. The worst of it, according to Abby actor Laura Bailey, was «real hardcore death threats», some of which were even directed at Bailey's newborn child.

Sony is issuing refunds to those who purchased The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered full price by accident, if they have it on PS4 already.

The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered is a strange blend. On one hand, it’s a good excuse to revisit Digital Trends’ 2020 Game of the Year selection. On the other, it’s a bizarre package filled with tone-deaf bonus modes that water down the base game’s own message on cyclical violence. Considering that it’s not as much of a “remaster” as its title implies, I wouldn’t blame most players for skipping it.

Abby Anderson is one of the most divisive and definitely interesting characters in the The Last Of Us mythos. Naughty Dog has seen it fit to make players both see her kill characters you love, and then make you play as her. And now, we know who will be playing her on-screen on HBO.

The Last of Us season 2 has found its Abby in Kaitlyn Dever, confirming previous reports. In a tweet, HBO confirmed that the Booksmart star will be playing the second protagonist — some prefer seeing her as a villain — in the post-apocalyptic series, posing a new challenge to Ellie Williams (Bella Ramsey). Interestingly, Dever had a prior connection to the show when fans lobbied the studio to cast her as the 13-year-old Ellie, due to her facial resemblance to the in-game character and her involvement in the Uncharted 4 game — also from developer Naughty Dog. However, co-creator Neil Druckmann and the team opted for a younger actor in Ramsey, who in my opinion, nailed the role.

The voice actor who played Abby in The Last of Us 2 has responded to HBO's casting of the same character for the second season of the TV show, and she's just as excited as we all are.

The Last of Us has found its Abby Anderson. Kaitlyn Dever will play Abby in the second season of the HBO show, joining fellow cast members Bella Ramsey and Pedro Pascal.

Critical Role dungeon master Matt Mercer, who you may know as Cole Cassidy in Overwatch and Minsc in Baldur's Gate 3, has expressed interest in turning the hit Dungeons & Dragons actual play series into a video game.

Critical Role is pretty much the biggest livestreamed D&D campaign, by sheer popularity and volume alone. Starting halfway through the group's home game in 2015, to call the game's rise to popularity 'meteoric' is an understatement. It's gone from an experiment by Geek & Sundry to its own enterprise with heaps of merch, a charity foundation, officially-sanctioned D&D settings, board games, its own unique systems like Candela Obscura, and a very solid animated series with two seasons and counting. And, according to a recent interview with Dicebreaker, we could get a Critical Role videogame, too. Responding to a question as to whether he'd like to make the leap to a digital world, Critical Role's DM Matthew Mercer responds with a bit of caution, saying it would «require the right idea, the right development studio and the right budget.» However, he goes on to say that he'd «love to see that in the future, should all those stars align». Coming from anyone else, saying 'sure, we'd love to make a game' wouldn't even register on my radar. Everybody with a world and characters they care about would love to make a game, it's just that games are both extremely difficult and wildly expensive to make. Looking back on Critical Role's history, though, I think it's very possible. If Critical Role as a company sets its mind on it, it's even likely. Back when The Legend of Vox Machina animated series was being funded, Critical Role put up a kickstarter with a humble goal of $750,000. It beat that goal, raising $1 million. Sorry, correction—it raised $1 million in its first hour. In total, the Kickstarter for The Legend of Vox Machina broke $11.3 million in funding, which is about 1,500% of the original goal. Not only would a Critical Role video game be able to easily get a huge wad of Kickstarter cash to get things started, it'd sell like hotcakes if it was even a little bit good. It also helps that Critical Role already has good ties to the industry, on account of the fact its entire cast are self-described «nerdy-ass voice actors.» Mercer, for example, voiced Minsc in Baldur's Gate 3—and you've likely heard his voice in a thousand other places before. Overwatch, Fallout 4, Pillars of Eternity World of Warcraft, League of Legends, The Legend of Zelda—he's been in the industry since 2002. If I went through the whole cast's portfolio (like how CEO Travis Willingham is Kingpin in Marvel's Spider-Man and Thor in like, most things that need voice acting for Thor, or how Ashley Johnson is Ellie from The Last of Us, or how Laura Bailey is Jaina Proudmoore) I'd be here all day. 

Roughly three-and-a-half years after the initial release, is coming to PlayStation 5 in January 2024. Rumors of the remaster stirred the same concerns as did when it was announced – qualms over such a recent game even needing a full-priced remaster – but the official announcement of has seemingly quieted such worries. will come with a host of new content, including what developer Naughty Dog has dubbed the Lost Levels, three gameplay segments that were cut from the final game.

Warning: The following article contains spoilers for Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

Insomniac Games's Spider-Man 2 is almost here (releasing on 20th October), and we can't wait to carry on with the epic storyline of Peter, Miles and company.

Developer Insomniac Games has announced that Marvel's Spider-Man 2has gone gold, reaching a launch-ready state ahead of its release on October 20 PS5 release. 

Better get ready to wear those Spidey suits again because Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has gone gold. Insomniac Games announced the news on their Twitter page Wednesday, and the studio also published a video with the cast psyched about the game going gold. At this point, it’s unlikely that the game will get delayed.

Growing up, musicals were a huge part of my life, from performing Charlie & the Chocolate Factory as an elementary student to co-writing a rendition of Romeo & Juliet as a modern-style musical for the local area. As a huge musical theatre fan, the idea of a musical game in Stray Gods is an exciting idea.

We’ve seen some unusual genre combinations, but Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical immediately caught my eye for being a supernatural murder mystery visual novel musical; as far as I can tell it’s a one-of-a-kind video game, but an idea that we can only hope will become more common because of how boldly bonkers it is. There’s a magical moment when characters – both mortals and the gods of Greek myth – burst into song and you can choose your response, which impacts how your character feels, affects how other people respond, and even changes the lyrics of the tune you’re helping create. Musical battles evolve to a whole new level when you can decide who sings and how they’re expressing their emotions. Inevitably, the initial thrill of choice starts to wear off the more you play, and the story and characters’ predictability make the overall experience fall a little flat, but even so, it has plenty of wonderful art and top-notch voice acting to keep you entertained through it all.

The stage was set for a cow and a witch to fall in love. The stage in question was inside the actors’ minds and alternated between a shoddy, makeshift replication of a Romeo and Juliet backdrop and a glamorous setup ripped straight from Beauty and the Beast. One wrong line could have transformed the budding romance into an unspeakable tragedy, but with the right balance of emotional honesty and empathetic listening, Asterion the Minotaur and Hecate the witch walked away happy.
