Street Fighter 5 sometimes feels as though it makes headlines more for controversy than its refined fighting gameplay or massive tournament prize pools. Now, just two days after releasing a classic Street Fighter stage as DLC for Street Fighter 5, Capcom has been forced to remove it from the PlayStation Store and Steam thanks to religious controversy. The controversy surrounds the recently added Street Fighter 5 version of the Thailand stage, made famous by Street Fighter 2 and widely regarded a

Tom Clancy’s The Division is one of the rare instances in video games wherein a title actually gets markedly better as it ages. Part of that has been Massive’s willingness to immediately and effectively address issues within the game, and now that The Division‘s PTS update feedback has started rolling in, it appears Massive will be doing more of the same – The Division will now be getting an Update 1.6.1, also called PTS 2, that will address and remove hip-fire aim assist for controllers. Massiv

If there’s one thing Final Fantasy 12: The Zodiac Age and its PS2 predecessor have no shortage of, it’s quality of presentation. Final Fantasy 12 is an important game in the franchise’s history, a remarkable evolution in storytelling and drama that seems Shakespearean as its sprawling narrative unravels. It appears that Square Enix is well aware of this fact, however, and has chosen to emphasize it above all else in the latest trailer for upcoming remaster called Final Fantasy 12: The Zodiac Age

Overall, it sounds like the Not A Hero DLC will be a much more action-oriented experience than the core game. From a story perspective, Not A Hero will attempt to connect Resident Evil 7 to its predecessors. When Capcom gets closer to finishing the recently delayed DLC, fans can expect more concrete details about Not A Hero to be made available. In the meantime, fans are free to speculate about what else Not A Hero will have in store, and how it will bridge the gap between past Resident Evil gam

That’s finally changed, as Microsoft recently hosted a private event where the technology giant demonstrated Project Scorpio’s 4K enhancements, providing several different examples that showed what a dramatic upgrade Project Scorpio’s visuals are over the 1080p Xbox One. Essentially, though: these images are meant to sell gamers on those sweet, sweet teraflops of GPU power nestled in Project Scorpio. The above image demonstrates, in order from left-to-right, the resolution of the Xbox One, the S

Mass Effect: Andromeda‘s long five year development period inevitably saw a number of major changes made to the game’s story, characters, and art direction. The latest of these insights into early Mass Effect: Andromeda design comes from Eric Bellefeuille, who worked at BioWare Montreal as the Lead UI Artist on the game, and his concepts show that Mass Effect: Andromeda could have looked quite different. While some of the concepts revealed by Bellefeuille are certainly interesting, it’s hard to

One of the biggest and best surprises at E3 last year came from Sony as they showed off the mysterious AAA title, Days Gone. The move is expected to finalize in September, facilitated by the fact that the development studio has more than doubled in size since the start of Days Gone, going from 45 employees to over 103. The third-person, post-apocalyptic game Days Gone, has been flying well under the radar since its surprise reveal last year at E3. Do you believe this move indicates bigger things

Since the release of Halo: Combat Evolved in 2001, Master Chief has become one of the most easily recognizable characters in all of gaming. In 2015’s Halo 5: Guardians, the Spartan shared the spotlight with a brand new protagonist, Locke — and 343 Industries is aware that some fans were disappointed by this choice. While the use of dual protagonists in Halo 5 proved to be divisive among fans, this kind of conflict is nothing new for the series. In 2004, opinion was split when players delved into

Rockstar announced Red Dead Redemption 2 last fall, and we’ve heard very little about the game since then. However, there are now rumors that the studio plans to begin development on Bully 2 once the western is complete. “Bully 2 is indeed in development and is supposed to be the next game after RDR2,” wrote Yan2295 in a post on GTA Forums. The sequel to Bully has likely entered development then faltered several times over. This unsubstantiated rumor should perhaps be taken with a pinch of salt,

Overwatch director Jeff Kaplan joined the thread, admitting to fans that their frustration is completely understandable, and promising that the skins will be coming to regular Loot Boxes eventually. “With that said, I still encourage anyone with access to a PC to play the Nexus Challenge,” Kaplan commented.
