‘LEGO City Undercover’, is no exception. You’re given the open world of LEGO City, a bustling metropolis with tiny yellow citizens, a whole library of vehicles, and its fair share of destructible objects. The world is designed to dispense LEGO bricks from anything you’re able to destroy, which are then saved and used in later builds. Hidden within the different buildings and obstacles you’ll find “super bricks”; glowing LEGO bricks that act as makeshift blueprints for new constructs, which requi

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, the DLC spinoff might actually be longer than most DLC put out by other companies. In an interview with IBTimes UK, Naughty Dog’s head of communications, Arne Mayer, said, “we couldn’t keep it short.” The total length of The Lost Legacy hasn’t officially been revealed, but 10 hours was alluded to. This installment is an expansion to Uncharted 4 in a sense. Naughty Dog has previously stated why they made The Lost Legacy a standalone expansion.

According to a recent leak, Overwatch may be getting some new skins. New images have appeared, thanks to Imgur user raulrsd, showing an Xbox One Dashboard icon for Overwatch that shows Mercy, Tracer, Reinhardt and Torbjorn wearing similar blue gear.

The upcoming event is slim on details, but the timing of never before seen skins and a leaked image leads us to believe they’re related. Ov

Last week, DICE/EA revealed that they would be moving away from seasonal updates for Battlefield 1 to monthly updates for the game. The developers even offered light details on May’s update, which will be bringing tweaks to a number of features, including Rent-a-Server and multiplayer matchmaking. While we are still preparing for the full breakdown of the May patch, DICE has skipped ahead to reveal something special for Premium members in June – a new night map called Nivelle Nights. DICE/EA off

Developers have removed features, added game breaking bugs, and much more but this punishment has to be the cruelest, most brutal punishment we’ve seen yet. A number of bugs surfaced on the internet showing bizarre animation bugs and scenes that had basically no animation at all. Bioware has released some patches that drastically improve the game’s technical state, but if you pirated the game… we’ve got some bad news for you. DSOG is reporting that the latest patch has upgraded the game’s Denu

While no plans for these movies have officially been confirmed, a leak indicates those two movies, Matt Reeves’ standalone Batman film, and the female-led Gotham City Sirens will all release on Batman’s 80th birthday in 2019.

Some developers have gone all in on PS4 Pro while some have somehow managed to make their games run slightly worse. One developer that promises to fully support both PS4 Pro and Microsoft’s Project Scorpio to the best of their ability is Project CARS developer Slightly Mad Studios. He also teased that Project CARS 2 will include a PSVR mode but can’t promise anything quite yet. I can confirm that PS4 Pro and Xbox Scorpio will get some sort of improvements, but we can’t really talk about the Scor

Sony Santa Monica is in the midst of working on the upcoming God of War game for PS4, but a job listing has popped up on their website, prompting some to wonder if they are going back on their decision not to include multiplayer in the game. It’s also quite possible that that the studio is laying the groundwork for their next project once God of War is completed, but it’s impossible to know given how generic the listing is. If you remember, God of War: Ascension on PS3 had a short-lived multipla

Middle-Earth: Shadow of War, the follow-up to 2014’s Shadow of Mordor was officially revealed to the world back in February, and today IGN got an exclusive look at one of the game’s key sections, Minas Ithil.

Here’s the video:One thing that’s immediately apparent is that Shadow of War looks exactly like Shadow of Mordor. This is the second major gameplay reveal that Shadow of War has gotten, a

Now, BioWare will alter the character to be less forthcoming with how they took an opportunity to start their life anew with the Andromeda Intiative. “In Mass Effect: Andromeda, on

We have seen fan remakes of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, but no official game like it from BioWare (omitting the MMO). It looks like we could finally be getting a KOTOR-esque game from BioWare, though nothing is confirmed.
