Like any other Bethesda game, Starfield has a whole lot of mods. In fact, less than a year since launch, it's already amassed around 7,300 mods, installed 42.6 million times on Nexus Mods. That might be a far cry from the literal billions of Skyrim downloads, but it's not bad going.

Video game publishing giant 2K Games is gearing up to reveal the “next iteration” in one of its “biggest and most beloved franchises” later this year.

Assassin's Creed Shadows has finally been revealed, with more info surrounding the game now online to pore over until launch.

Nearly 17 years to the day Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 was released, Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero will reportedly be coming out. That is if a recent datamine leak is to be believed.

The Elden Ring community was already rabid after a surprise Elden Ring DLC image revealing a fresh take on an old enemy wielding what looks like a new weapon type, and now FromSoftware producer Yasuhiro Kitao's gone and dropped another bit of teaser art that looks exactly like Bloodborne, to the point that I wasn't even sure if it was Elden Ring for a minute.

Twitter, now officially rebranded as X, underwent a significant shift today, changing its web address from Twitter.com to X.com. This move finalises a transformation process that began almost a year ago. Back in July 2023, Elon Musk, the owner of the social network, decided to rename it as X, a symbolic letter with strong ties to the tech mogul's history since 1999.

Geoff Keighley has revealed next month's Summer Game Fest live show will host the reveal of a new entry in one of 2K's «biggest and most beloved franchises».

Another outside bet could be the Mafia series, which already has a new instalment confirmed to be in the works alongside BioShock.

Following a devastating week of Bethesda studio closures, which coincides with the Fallout franchise's recent bump in popularity (thanks to Amazon's excellent adaptation), it was only natural for the pressure to erupt somewhere. In a legitimately hilarious turn, vengeful Fallout 76 players have been venting their spleens on Phil Spencer's in-game encampment, repeatedly detonating nukes on top of it, reducing the surrounding landscape into an (even more) uninhabitable wasteland.

The latest issue of V-Jump has revealed that Goten, Kid Trunks, Kale, Caulifla, and their respective fusions are all going to be playable in Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero.

I think most would agree that the artist formerly known as Twitter has never been in more need of a thermonuclear cleansing. The Musk era has transformed what was already fondly known as a hellsite into something at once more obnoxious and sadder, whether you're talking about the web3 grifters or the resurgent debate-me cryptofascists or the recommendation algorithm's perceptibly greater enthusiasm for quote-tweet flamebait.

As someone that got into Dragon Quest relatively recently with 2018's Echoes of an Elusive Age, I've long looked for an excuse to play through the game that started it all. Don't get me wrong, I own the game on Switch and have dumped a few hours into it, but it all just feels a little... before my time. It's rudimentary, a little janky, and a tad grindy for my liking, but I absolutely respect it for kickstarting one of my favorite franchises.

An industry veteran with time on World of Warcraft, a League of Legends spin-off, and an upcoming MMO currently codenamed Ghost reckons AI does have a place in game development, but only when it comes to the "grunt work."

It’s kind of hard to believe that a substantial game like Manor Lords could be developed by only one person, but that hasn’t stopped it from being an absolutely massive success since its April 26 release date. Rising rapidly to become the top-selling game on Steam and hitting a staggering number of concurrent players, this Early Access strategy title is certainly making a name for itself right out of the gate. However, despite being such a popular game on Steam and PC Game Pass, some players may be wondering if and when they can get their hands on it for consoles. It’s currently a tricky question to answer, but here’s what we know so far about whether Manor Lords will come to consoles.

Diablo Global Community Development Director Adam Fletcher stated on X, formerly known as Twitter, that Blizzard has begun looking into why the Gauntlet didn't reset, but did not give an ETA for the issue.

Earlier today, it was announced that Xbox will be closing multiple studios under its umbrella, including Tango Gameworks and Arkane Austin.

Being a Helldivers 2 fan has been an absolute rollercoaster over this past weekend, with the game being the most loved live service game out there, to the most hated, and back again over the course of just a few days.

Silent Hill is a pretty iconic title, what with it being the start of one of the most iconic horror franchises of all time (even if Konami constantly disappoints fans).

A new trailer for Mortal Kombat 1 has given us a very brief glimpse at Homelander, including showing off his two fatalities and letting us hear his voice for the first time. No, we're not sure if it's Antony Starr, either.

We all know that Persona 5's Joker is a gamer at heart, regularly retiring to his room for a session of Punch Ouch or Train of Life on his secondhand retro console. He views his own physical and mental health as stats to increase, you don't get much more gamer than that.

The developer of Manor Lords has responded to crash complaints, explaining that most crashes are due to old drivers. 

Skyrim is a pretty old game right now, if you don't count the one billion times Bethesda has re-released it.

If you were hoping the news Housemarque has to share tomorrow is a Returnal sequel announcement, you may want to rein your expectations in by quite a significant amount.

Today Christie Golden, writer, author, and storyteller, announced on Twitter that she is no longer an employee at Blizzard and was let go in the last round of layoffs. Golden has been working on Blizzard IPs for over 25 years, the last 6+ directly as an employee on Blizzard's Story & Franchise Development Team. While never an employee on the World of Warcraft team directly, Golden contributed cinematic scripts and short stories for the franchise while at Blizzard.

It took a little longer than usual, but Helldivers 2's latest patch has finally dropped, giving us some new tweaks to certain weapons, an increase in difficulty for solo players, and some general balance changes.

Dark Souls is often regarded as one of FromSoftware's best games, but even diehard fans have to admit that the back half is lacking.

The massive success of the Fallout TV show is inspiring millions of people to play the games on which the Amazon Prime series is based.
