The spooky times are behind us, and looking ahead are times of family, togetherness, warm cocoa, and (of course) major sales and bundles for Black Friday. Nintendo has wasted no time revealing some of its Black Friday offerings, and announced today two special bundles for Legend of Zelda fans. First up is a Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Black Friday bundle. This $59.99 “Explorer’s Edition” of BotW includes the base game (no season pass), a 100-page strategy guide, and two-sided map.

The version of LA Noire coming to Nintendo Switch doesn’t have the same 4K assets as its cousins on PS4 Pro and Xbox One X, but it’s still pretty sizable. Even if you plan on purchasing a physical copy of LA Noire, you’ll still need a healthy amount of storage free. For perspective, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild takes up 13.4GB of space on Nintendo Switch. LA Noire will arrive on Nintendo Switch (and PS4 and Xbox One) on November 14.

Here’s everything we learned about Horizon Zero Dawn: Frozen Wilds DLC at Paris Games Week, direct from Guerrilla itself.

Like seemingly every other major console of the last decade, the Nintendo Switch dropped with a real dearth of launch titles. Though Nintendo has spoiled us with first-party Switch games, the initial vibe on the console was that, like most of Nintendo’s offerings, there hasn’t been a tremendous amount of third-party support. Here are the cheapest Micro SD cards for Nintendo SwitchDouble Dragon 4 ($8)Speaking of games that hearken back to my misspent youth, Double Dragon 4 is, if anything, too fa

Horizon Zero Dawn’s first expansion isn’t just bringing new story content when it arrives on November 7 – it’s also expanding Aloy’s skill tree too. In the base game, Skills were organised into three headings: Prowler, Brave, and Forager. But, in the Frozen Wilds, there’s a brand new set called Traveller. This new skill tree is focused on making your mounted experience a better one. It’s a move that allows you to leap off your mount and perform a devastating attack that will kill smaller enemies

Many of the hieroglyphs etched into the walls, ceilings, and pillars of Assassin’s Creed Origins aren’t just random symbols, you know. Assassin’s Creed has always felt like a franchise that’s never been able to quite reach the pinnacle of its potential. It’s a mesmerizing experience, almost therapeutic in its sensory impact, and just one of the many details which elevates Assassin’s Creed Origins above its predecessors. Assassin’s Creed games are at their worst when they feel excessively automat

Everyone knows that the photo mode in Horizon Zero Dawn is one of the best things ever – just look at all these beautiful things that fans have made. There’s no doubt that it’s one impressive-looking game to begin with, but the magic of photo mode just makes it all look even better. But we now know it’s about to get even better thanks to Horizon Zero Dawn: Frozen Wilds. Plus, you can stick your photo mode creation in a cute frame that wishes you Seasons Greetings from the Frozen Wilds. When it a

Things may have been all doom and gloom before but, according to Henry Cavill, the success of Wonder Woman means DC has turned a corner. “We can start telling the stories in the way they need to be told,” Cavill explains to Rake Magazine (via Polygon), following the global triumph that was Wonder Woman. It hasn’t given everyone the sensation which superheroes should give the viewer.” If we’re taking cues from Wonder Woman then could we see less dark, more lark? Wonder Woman was a brave choice –

It sounds like the set-up to a bad joke: What do you get when you cross a trash panda with a mean, green gladiator? As it turns out, you get one of the most exciting aspects of Avengers: Infinity War. That’s right, Rocket Raccoon is teaming up with Hulk next year – and I couldn’t be more excited. Without getting into Thor: Ragnarok spoiler territory (other than it’s very good and, if you haven’t already, you should watch it), if the Guardians are meeting Hulk, you can bet that Thor won’t be far

We asked you to vote for your favourite film character and the results don’t lie – Indy comes out on top. I always figured that Indiana Jones would perform well in our Greatest Movie Characters poll, but I was still taken aback when he surged to the top of the list and stayed there. “A throwback to a bygone era in both style and substance, as a character, Indy has felt lived-in from the off.” Even his name – Indiana Jones – juxtaposing the grand and the everyday, sounds like something from the ’

As the sixth-graders, Raisins girls, ninjas, and Crab People of South Park pull out their phones, you hear a voice shout, “PHONE DESTROYERRRR!!” Well, on November 9, that joke becomes reality with the mobile game South Park: Phone Destroyer. Originally announced at E3 2017, South Park: Phone Destroyer takes the grid-based, RPG-lite combat of Ubisoft’s console games and scales it down into an experience meant to be played on your iOS or Android device’s touchscreen. Story-wise, Phone Destroyer st

At least that’s the case in The Red Strings Club, a story-driven adventure from Devolver Digital and Deconstructeam coming January 2018. In The Red Strings Club, a supposedly good-natured megacorporation called Supercontinent Ltd is preparing to release a software program that will erase all negative emotions and thoughts from the populace. Sounds good in theory, but your character thinks of it as akin to brainwashing. You play as the bartender of the titular club, and along with a freelance hac

Star Wars Battlefront 2 is rethinking its approach to player progression and loot boxes. Loot boxes are no longer your main source for weaponsBattlefront 2 is a shooter, so the guns are a pretty big deal.

No, that headline is not some sort of Halloween candy induced hallucination. Captain America actor Chris Evans will play Middle-Earth: Shadow of War and share it with the world. You’ll be able to watch it on the Mixer Xbox Channel November 1, at 4pm PT.
