Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door – How to Fight the 2 New Bosses Added to the Remake

A couple years ago Microsoft and developer Oxide Games (Ashes of the Singularity) unveiled Ara: History Untold, a new 4X turn-based game with elements of grand strategy and even city building mixed in. We haven’t heard that too much about it since then, but today, Microsoft unveiled a September release date for the promising title.

Star Wars Outlaws, the upcoming open-world action-adventure from Massive Entertainment set in a Galaxy Far, Far Away, is slated to be the biggest game of the summer, and today during the Ubisoft Forward showcase, we got a fresh look at the game in action. The new gameplay footage mostly focuses on the game’s expansive world and the activities you’ll encounter there, including a visit to Tatooine and Mos Eisley, including the infamous cantina.

Following today’s big Xbox Games Showcase, Microsoft and Activision fully pulled the wraps back on what’s sure to be the biggest game of the year with the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct. After a couple shaky years for the CoD franchise, this looks like the game fans have been waiting for, with an ambitious campaign, major updates to core gameplay, the return of round-based Zombies, and more. You can check out the full Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct below, provided you have around 25 minutes to spare, or you can scroll on down for our recap of the important points.

Earlier this year, Xbox finally gave us a first peek at Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, the new first-person action-adventure under development at Wolfenstein developer under the watchful eye of producer Todd Howard. That first trailer certainly got tongues wagging, and delivered plenty of the puzzle solving and derring-do the series is known for, but, of course, fans wanted more.

Note: This is a developing story. More info about Perfect Dark will be added soon.

This year’s Summer Game Fest show may not have had as many big reveals as some past iterations (although there was a notable reveal or two) but the show did culminate in a pretty impressive trailer for the upcoming PS5 console exclusive Phantom Blade Zero. The trailer features some eye-popping Unreal Engine 5 visuals, big, bad bosses, and some downright-frantic action – the swords are flying fast and furious in the one. Check the Phantom Blade Zero trailer for yourself, below.

Today, NVIDIA has announced that CAPCOM's Street Fighter 6 has joined the GeForce NOW library (as previously confirmed), allowing cloud users to enter the fray. The other major weekly additions to GeForce NOW are Ubisoft's free-to-play competitive first-person shooter game XDefiant, which registered strong numbers at launch, and the asymmetric multiplayer horror game Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game.

Ubisoft’s Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake has had a rather troubled development cycle, but it seems like Ubisoft is gathering its resources to finally get the project done. Announced back in 2020, the game was originally being developed by former support studios Ubisoft Mumbai and Ubisoft Pune, but reactions to early trailers weren’t exactly positive. It seems Ubisoft brass weren’t impressed either, because the project was handed back to Ubisoft Montreal and eventually completely rebooted.

Earlier this year, Sony announced a remake of the cult-favorite narrative horror game Until Dawn from Ballistic Moon, a new studio founded by veterans of original Until Dawn creators Supermassive Games. The game is being developed with Unreal Engine 5 and will feature a fully controllable camera rather than the old-school fixed angles of the original game. That all sounds good, but the original teaser trailer for the new Until Dawn didn’t really show us much.

While we’ve known about the existence of Concord for over a year now, Sony’s new PvP multiplayer shooter has remained quite mysterious. The game is the work of Firewalk Studios, a new startup headed up by a team of Destiny vets, and teasers have hinted at a colorful, character-driven approach to the genre. Beyond that, details have been scant.

Among the many quality PlayStation 5 exclusives, few are more underappreciated than Astro’s Playroom. Sure, it was just a relatively small-scale pack-in title, but Astro’s Playroom was a ton of fun and made better use of the Dualsense controller’s unique features than any game since. In the past week, rumors emerged that the reveal of a new Astro Bot title was imminent, and it turns out the leakers were right on the money.

When will fans finally be able to get their hands on the Silent Hill 2 remake? It feels like the project has been close to release for some time now, and yet info has been hard to come by, to the point even remake developer Bloober Team has seemed frustrated by the situation. Well, thankfully, today during Sony’s latest State of Play showcase, we got a fresh peek at the new Silent Hill 2, and more importantly, a spooky October release date. You can check out the trailer for yourself, below.
