In not playing the first Destiny game from 2014, you haven’t really missed anything. Luke SmithIn not playing the first Destiny game from 2014, you haven’t really missed anything. Oh no, oh my gosh, I don’t think you’re trying to find anything suspicious at all. Going here into PC for the first time, we want to make sure that the PC game plays as well as the console game with respect to the audience’s desires. We want to have a game that plays amazingly on the PC for what the PC audience expects

Destiny 2 will release for PC on October 24, Activision has confirmed. That’s a little over a month after the Xbox One and PS4 editions, which will release September 6. Meanwhile, the PC beta is scheduled to happen around late August, though no firm release date has been confirmed as yet. If it’s anything like the console versions, pre-orders will gain a week of early access before the wider public. Sony aired a brand new Destiny 2 trailer at its E3 2017 press conference earlier, which focused o

Destiny 2 now has a confirmed PC release date: October 24. That’s a little after the September 6 console launch, but not as bad as feared when we confirmed the delay. The PC will also get a beta in August, which will go early to those who pre-order. The reward: a second story trailer focusing on the game’s main antagonist, Ghaul, commander of the Cabal’s Red Legion. That multi-shot beehive-looking thing is almost certainly Dubious Volley, a “missing” rocket launcher from the original Destiny.

Officially unveiled at the Sony E3 2017 press conference, Monster Hunter: World will also be coming to PC. The release was confirmed by the official Monster Hunter Twitter account, though it also specified that the PC version will release after the console editions. The trailer shown at the press conference demonstrated some interesting new twists on the Monster Hunter format, such as destructible environments and a hookshot. This will also be the first time a Monster Hunter game has hit PC for

It’s notable that I had no idea this was supposed to be a ‘multiplayer’ reveal trailer when I saw it at the Sony E3 conference today. And secondly, it wasn’t exactly ‘gameplay’—the camera work and editing clearly mask what the true CoD:WWII multiplayer experience looks like. But it may also feel foreign because we see stuff I’m not used to in CoD multiplayer: Players parachuting into a map, or being dropped off by a truck. However much this trailer ultimately differs from the real experience of

In the sequence we played, we had to rob a gas station for money. Mine comes across as more of a smooth operator, and talks about a subtler approach towards the gas station. I’m reminded a little of the games of David Cage in how you interact with other characters. Vincent bullshits the guy by telling him there’s a cheaper gas station a short drive away, and this tempts him to leave. James: While Sam talks to the guy outside, I head into the gas station.

After the long awaited cinematic reveal of Beyond Good & Evil 2 at the Ubisoft conference today, series lead Michel Ancel joined Twitch to chat about the game during the E3 livestream. Ancel didn’t go into too many specifics, but the scope of the game did come up. “It’s really connected to the first game,” said Ancel. “So we waited for three years just working on the technology, so that now you can really travel across space, planets. We needed to make sure, before coming here today, making sure

Today, Dell’s gaming division Alienware unveiled a new high-speed gaming monitor aimed at fast-twitch, esports-type gaming. The AW2518H is a 24.5 inch 1080p monitor with a blazing-fast 240Hz native refresh rate and 1ms response time. To hit those high speeds, the monitor uses a TN panel with 400 nits brightness and 1000:1 contrast ratio. The monitor is available in two flavors: the AW2518H, which features Nvidia’s G-Sync technology and will retail at $699, and the AW2518HF, a $499 FreeSync varia

After being surprisingly announced for PC earlier this year, Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom has set its release date down in stone as November 10. The sequel to a PS3 exclusive, Ni No Kuni was the first game from former members of Spirited Away creator Studio Ghibli, and shares the studio’s distinct style. The sequel looks just as beautiful, but shakes up the combat of Ni No Kuni, moving it from 1v1, almost Pokemon-like fights to larger scale encounters that reminded James of Pikmin. We don’t kn

We certainly expect Sony to spend much of its show on console exclusives, but there’s usually a nice spread of indie games coming to PC too. We know Destiny 2 is coming to PC, and expect, or at least hope, to see a bit more of the next Red Dead game (though it still hasn’t been confirmed for PC). There’s even been a few rumors about a sequel to Bully. We’ll be watching and posting all the PC-related news we see today. You can join in and watch Sony’s presentation at 6 pm Pacific Time on Twitch a

Ubisoft’s sports game Steep looks to take us to the Winter Olympics in its first expansion, arriving just ahead of the real 2018 Winter Olympics being held in PyeongChang, Korea. In the announcement trailer above you’ll see events like the downhill, snowboard cross, slopestyle, skicross, halfpipe, giant slalom, and more. Road to the Olympics, as the expansion is called, will arrive on December 5, 2017.

Ubisoft delivered an unexpected surprise during its E3 press event today with the reveal of a proper, full-on cinematic teaser for Beyond Good & Evil 2. He also threw a shout-out to the fans of Beyond Good & Evil, “for sticking with us for so long.” With our crew of crazy and unforgettable characters, we fight in the name of freedom and the right to determine our own fates among the stars.” The trailer itself is pretty great, although we can’t ignore that it’s strictly a cinematic—no gameplay is

At Ubisoft’s E3 press conference, executive producer Dan Hay described the situation in Far Cry 5, in which the player is trapped deep inside cult territory with no roads to freedom and no cellphone service. Luckily, you can hire some help, as the gameplay trailer above demonstrates. Grace Armstrong, a sniper for hire, takes a position on a water tower (which looks suspiciously like it may be Far Cry 5’s version of the ubiquitous climbable towers). You can also take a look at a short trailer cal

At Ubisoft’s E3 press conference, a VR ‘experience’ was announced called Transference, billed as ‘psychological thriller’ in which the player is “projected into the digital consciousness of troubled case subjects”. It’s being developed by SpectreVision, and Elijah Wood is in it, too. Have a look at the announcement trailer above. “Bridging the gap between movies and games, we invite you to lose yourself in the destructive tale of a man’s obsession as you explore his digitally recreated memories,

The Crew 2 has been unveiled at the 2017 Ubisoft E3 conference and, according to the game’s creative director Stephane Beley, aims to take the “iconic vision” set by its predecessor “to the next level.” Most interestingly, this means adding planes and boats to its vast array of cars and bikes. You’ll spot aircraft in the header image above, however here’s the new modes of transport in motion courtesy of this extended gameplay walkthrough:And with that, Beley reckons “it’s time to take The Crew w

Ubisoft’s finally taken that potential and spun it out of the Assassin’s Creed universe in a new game called Skull and Bones. Ubisoft first showed off Skull and Bones with a cinematic trailer at its press conference, but the video above is a longer look at the game, which describes it as a multiplayer, open world pirate game. The game isn’t all PvP, and sounds a bit like The Division in its open world design and challenges built around co-op play with your friends. Ubisoft talked just a bit abou

Ubisoft rolled out another Assassin’s Creed: Origins trailer at its E3 press event today, this one showcasing animals, action, and the “Mysteries of Egypt” in glorious 4K. With ten years of Assassin’s Creed behind it, Ubisoft “wanted to go back—very far back—to show how it all began,” game director Ashraf Ismail said. Egypt “challenged us to fundamentally reinvent what it means to be Assassin’s Creed,” he added. The trailer is pure teaser, but if you’d like to scope out some proper gameplay we c

When it landed in 2014, the Wolfenstein reboot—named The New Order—was, somewhat surprisingly, quite good. Well, despite setting punters back $100 it didn’t actually come with the game. Luckily, Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus has a special edition that not only looks pretty neat, but also comes with the newly announced game in tow. As featured in the images above and below, The New Colossus collector’s edition boasts the following:1/6th Scale 30cm B.J. “Terror-Billy” Blazkowicz action figureEli

Amidst the hustle, bustle, and blinding chaos of E3, Studio Wildcard has very quietly announced a big bit of Ark: Survival Evolved news: A release date of August 8, worldwide and across all platforms. “During the past two years, millions of Ark players have built gigantic bases, captured and trained armies of dinosaurs, crafted armories full of weapons and eaten billions of pounds of Jurassic creature-kabobs.
