When you think of some of the scariest, most bone-chilling creatures you could potentially face while crossing Fallout's many Wastelands, there aren't many that conjure up more fear than the Deathclaw. They've been the stuff of nightmares for decades, and they're arguably one of the most iconic baddies from across the entire series. That makes their exclusion from the first season of the Fallout TV show all the more perplexing.

New screenshots of Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero, the next game in the beloved Budokai Tenkaichi series, confirms more characters coming to the hotly-anticipated 3D fighting game. Among its ranks of super-powered heroes is Dragon Ball Z’s oft-forgotten Saiyan warrior, Future Gohan.

An imaginative Pokemon fan recently put together a fake commercial for the ever-helpful Poke Mart Potions. The Pokemon franchise is largely centered around elementally empowered creatures battling one another, and injuries and lowered health meters are just part of the job for any aspiring Pokemon Trainer. If a Pokemon’s health is depleted completely, it faints and can no longer be used to battle until it is restored at the local Pokemon Center, but there are luckily several portable Pokemon items players can use to keep their critters in top fighting condition.

Super fans of Hades will soon get their first chance to get their hands on an early version of the game’s sequel soon. According to the recent update from the developer Supergiant Games, the team is “close” to launchingHades 2 in early access, but before it does, the game will have its first “technical test.” The team didn’t specify how long the technical tests will run, but we know they will “begin shortly,” via X on Tuesday.

While you’re exploring the land of the Enclave and taking on gargantuan bosses in Eternal Strands, you’ll unlock more and more magical abilities to help you on your journey. But unlike many games where magic might let you toss a fireball or Force push an enemy off a cliff, Eternal Strands has a unique approach to the nine physics-altering abilities it puts in your toolbelt, all of which allow for an impressive level of freedom. Continuing our month-long exclusive coverage of the upcoming action-adventure game from a new team comprised of ex-BioWare and Ubisoft developers, today we’ll be taking a look at a few abilities at the heart of this battle-heavy odyssey and how they can be combined in surprising and creative ways.

Bethesda titles are massive, with tons of loot to acquire. From the fantasy series of Elder Scrolls VI, to the sci-fi world of the future in Starfield, the one thing they share is a wide range of weapons. In the wastelands of Fallout 4, and thenew Fallout TV show, the weapons (and their cool names) are a major perk. Some weapons might give you an edge, but others feel as if they’re just for show.

AMD's Ryzen PRO 8040 APUs debut today, slamming Intel's Core Ultra vPRO in all segments with strong performance & AI capabilities.

People have been thirsting over FromSoftware characters for years, but we rarely see the developer or publisher get in on the action. Today is a very different day.

Overwatch 2, Season 10, entitled “Venture Forth” arrives tomorrow and Blizzard has fully spelled out what it will entail. The season will introduce new drill-wielding, underground burrowing hero Venture, but that’s not all. Players can look forward to the “Mirrorwatch” event, which sees several characters swap alignment from hero to villain, and vice-versa, resulting in new looks and tweaked movesets, the launch of the capture point Clash mode, big changes to how heroes are accessed (they’re all free immediately upon release now), and more. You can check out the Overwatch 2 Season 10 launch trailer, below.

Bandai Namco's new trailer for Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama's desert wasteland manga, Sand Land, committed what could possibly be the most intellectual marketing song choice of 2024 by having it accompanied by the iconic 2001 dance hit, Darude's Sandstorm. While folks rightfully lost their minds at the trailer's apropos song choice, eagle-eyed Dragon Ball Z fans spotted a clue toward a Dragon Ball Z crossover.

Fans appear hyped for the highly anticipated RPG Light of the Stars, which will be released on April 18, 2024! GM Tia and the remaining MOBIGAMES team have been working hard to make this epic journey come to life. Light of the Stars is ready to sail a little earlier than planned.

The last few days have been rough for Helldivers 2 players, to say the least. As the weekend began, we were hit with a new Major Order – halt the Automaton advance and hold the Menkent line, maintaining complete control over Menkent and Lesath in the process. It's just two planets, so simple enough, right?

As part of the Bug Out Event, Kleavor and their big axe hands have caught the eye of many — and we’ve got how to get them in Pokémon Go, as well as what counters we would recommend to take advantage of their weaknesses in raids.

Earlier today, the Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero website added four new pictures from the game before quickly removing them. However, eagle-eyed fans managed to save the images before they were taken down, revealing that Son Gohan will be playable after all.

When it comes to the game studios known for their level design, you don't get much better than FromSoftware. Over the course of the past two decades, the studio has been responsible for creating some of the most intricate and complex levels in the gaming history, and FromSoftware fans recently went back through the developer's soulslike catalog to name their favorite level from each.

Controversially, Fallout 4 makes it a little harder to build your own character. If you play as a woman, you were a lawyer before the bombs dropped. If you're a guy, you were part of the US military, fighting in the war against China. Either way, your character got married and had a son before the events of the game, and there's nothing you can do to change that.

If you're hoping Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's new grandiose Ultimania novel provides answers or hints regarding the ending's lingering mystery, you may be disappointed. 

Helldivers 2's developers have considered adding underground maps, though we wouldn't hold our breath waiting for it to happen as it would require a huge commitment, and it'd likely be "friendly fire hell" anyway.

A major purchase from gaming PC deals deserves a top-of-the-line screen like the 49-inch Samsung Odyssey G9 curved gaming monitor, which you can currently get with a $300 discount from Samsung. Instead of $1,300, you’ll only have to pay $1,000 for this display, which is a pretty reasonable price for its specifications and features. You’re going to have to hurry if you want to make the purchase with this level of savings though, as there’s no telling how much time is remaining before this offer ends.

Last week, we asked you to dive into Dragon’s Dogma 2 and share epic moments using #PSshare #PSBlog. Here are this week’s highlights:

It didn’t take long for last year’s excellent Street Fighter 6 to take the fighting game world by storm. Capcom’s critically praised fighting game didn’t just revitalize the Street Fighter series, but reignited interest in the fighting genre as a whole.

Tales of Kenzera: ZAU, the first game from Surgent Studios, a transmedia studio based in the UK founded by Abubakar Salim, known in the gaming world for being the voice actor of Assassin's Creed Origins main character Bayek, looked like a very special game right from its reveal during last year's The Game Awards show.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is a great celebration of the original title whilst being its own unique experience. It's constantly paying homage to the game that it's building upon, full of little references, foreshadowing, and adorable moments scattered across the story for OG Final Fantasy 7 fans to point at and appreciate. Some of them are so subtle that they're only just being discovered weeks after launch, which is the case for our topic of discussion today.

There’s a great deal of romance attached to leading a medieval revolution against an oppressive regime, thanks in no small part to the myths surrounding Robin Hood and his Merry Men. The reality would have been much colder, darker and damp, but Bellwright is a game that latches onto that idealised fantasy and runs with it, tasking you with liberating the lands and building an army strong enough to stand against the Crown.

A Dragon's Dogma 2 speedrunner has somehow managed to complete the RPG in under two hours with no armor equipped, and using their bare fists as their only weapon, leaving goblins and griffins everywhere shook.

Invincible’s reputation for hyper-violence is well earned. The Prime Video show’s season 1 massacre of the Guardians at the hands of Nolan/Omni-Man (J.K. Simmons) is harrowing, and it sets the tone for the show’s commitment to realistic superpowered gore and destruction. And few scenes in television history are as gnarly or horrifying as the destruction of a train and everyone on board in the first season’s finale.

The first major decision players have to make in is whether to redirect power to the town of Edgewater or the Deserters at the Botanical Lab.

Helldivers 2 is a funny game, with great physical comedy that naturally occurs from its robust friendly fire mechanics. It’s also a challenging game that pits extremely squishy Helldivers with limited resources against endless waves of enormous bugs. But few people talk about how it’s sometimes a terrifying game thanks to the Automatons.

In a developer livestream showcasing their upcoming expansion, Bungie made a bevy of announcements for what awaits players in Destiny 2: The Final Shape.

Dragon's Dogma 2 players have discovered an incredibly rare cutscene involving a late-game boss, which only plays out if you prolong the fight.

A little knowledge goes a long way in , and while the title is intended to be brutal, it could be easier with a better understanding of its core mechanics. Make no mistake: its unforgiving difficulty does the genre proud. Every step is fraught with peril, and every victory is hard-won. Completion serves as a badge of honor for those who manage to conquer it and a formidable barrier for the unprepared.

The fight against the Automatons has been a struggle, pushing the Helldivers to the edge to get the job done. Are they gone forever, though?

Someone edited Spider-Man into the Invincible season 2 finale – and we can't even tell the difference.

Since our last content update, players have delved into the Age of Unmaking, discovered a new chapter in Deckard Cain’s storied past, and tested themselves with Oblivion Pillars.

In Season 4 of Diablo 4, players will gain access to the Pit of Artificers, a new Endgame mechanic which pits players against the clock while fighting hordes of monsters. Slay enough in time, and you'll gain access to the final boss at the end — a mechanic incredibly similar in form to Diablo 3's Greater Rifts. This content shares a feature that punishes player deaths as well, however this penalty seems to be particularly unforgiving in Diablo 4.

Helldivers 2's ongoing Major Order has commanded soldiers to finally squash the mechanized Automatons on the western front, but unfortunately, frequent crashes threaten to jeopardize the weekend's operation, and one developer recommends letting the game "rest." 

The blemishes of beloved video games are sometimes referred to as their “jank.” The term encapsulates things in a game that may be slightly broken or inherently peculiar — aspects that should be detrimental to the experience, but aren’t. Ideally, these broken bits are overshadowed by a game’s superior elements, be they intricate combat systems, rich stories, or unique worlds.

The final story decision players will make in involves whether to kill or to spare their custom character's Blade Twin. While there are several choices that may affect the story, like choosing to be pro- or anti-shogunate in , the choice at the end of the Blade Twin boss fight is perhaps the most impactful in the game. As a result, players may want to know what's involved in this choice, and what implications it has for the ending they'll inevitably get.

Helldivers 2 does a fantastic job of straddling the line between being a great game to goof around in with your friends, and delivering actual commentary and world-building about the folly of an oppressive regime. You play as a titular Helldiver, shot down to enemy planets in pods that look like giant bullets — no obvious symbolism there — to fight back waves of nasty Terminid bugs and evil robots. The gameplay is great, but what I’ve come to truly love is the goofy Super Earth propaganda, and how it perfectly encapsulates fascism as a ridiculous ideology that is doomed to fail.

Tekken 8's latest update has been met with a wave of negative user reviews, bringing its overall Steam rating down to "mixed". Most of these negative reviews criticise the battle pass, which was added to the game in the latest patch.

Who are the strongest and most powerful anime characters of all time? Is it Saitama? Whis? Or Zeno? While fans will be arguing and debating about this forever, here’s our ranking of the best — from gods to dragons. In this list, we’ll explore some of the favourites and take a closer look at all the classic and new anime characters.

The Elder Scrolls Online tells the story of the Three Banner War, as all sides of Tamriel fight for the throne in Cyrodiil, the heart of the empire. So, the game brings us back to a good chunk of the same land we explored in Oblivion, this time in the second era.

Helldivers 2 players are fearing for the worst as their progress in liberating three Automaton-held planets for the latest Major Order is flatlining.

Dev Patel looks great beating people up in a suit. In the moments before he springs into action in Monkey Man, his tall, elegant frame looms threateningly, limbs hanging loose and ready, eyes glowering under twisted locks of black hair. When he strikes, it’s with whipcrack fluidity and control, but also emotional conviction — there’s a plausible desperation or rage to the way he moves.

Blizzard Developers have commented that they will likely be making adjustments to Sunken Temple for «the average joes» as it has still not been fully cleared, making it one of the most difficult raids thus far in WoW Classic. Nerfs could be incoming as early as Friday, April 5. Sunken Temple Raid Overview Sunken Temple Raid Loot During the last day, multiple guilds have made great efforts to get the coveted world first ranking on the new Season of Discovery Phase 3 raid, Sunken Temple. This hasn't been easy, though, as multiple bosses have been close to the 10-minute mark and require a lot of effort and consumables to get through. A lot of the guilds are using mage-focused comps, not because mage stacks are overpowered, but because they're incredibly fast to level, which allowed the raid itself to form a lot quicker. So far, the guild <none of the above> has dominated as usual, getting world first on every boss that's been killed so far, excluding only the Avatar of Hakkar and the Shade of Eranikus, which have not been killed yet. Close behind are the guilds <Drive> and <Welcome>; the latter has been a great resource to learn about these fights as they've maintained their streams while other guilds have hidden their screens in order to hide their strategies. If you want to keep up with how every guild is doing, feel free to check Warcraft Logs, or the current standings below -- Sunken Temple Progression
