While Days Gone reveals its “Freakers” are actually infected, mutated humans instead of the undead, their mindless shuffling and groaning could have fooled me. While Days Gone horde mechanics show a pulse, the rest of the game feels lifeless. As a result, Days Gone sometimes seems remarkably sparse, while other times I find it almost intolerably bloated. Days Gone may take place across a huge swath of Oregon, but my curiosity about what I can find dies a quick death in the first act. Those momen

Tilted Towers have become unstable. Last week, Tilted Towers made headlines because players noticed that none of the textures in the area were loading correctly. We’re aware of an issue with players being eliminated when walking down into the cellar of Knepley’s Pawn Shop in Tilted Towers. — Fortnite (@FortniteGame) May 2, 2019Why has Tilted Towers been so unstable in general lately? Until then, take care in landing at Tilted Towers.

Xbox on Tuesday introduced a new set of “Community Standards” for online conduct — i.e. “A little trash talk is an expected part of competitive multiplayer action, and that’s not a bad thing,” the document begins. Here are two examples of on-point, fair-game trash talk that Microsoft would allow:“Only reason you went positive was you spent all game camping. “Mature content that makes sense in a game might not be appropriate elsewhere on Xbox,” Microsoft says. The update tries to give as many rea

Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands gets two new missions and a free-play weekend on all platforms beginning tonight, Ubisoft announced. The new missions, Operation Oracle, star Jon Bernthal of The Punisher and AMC’s The Walking Dead. Bernthal is Cole D. Walker, a “Ghost Team Leader on the hunt for the truth,” in the two-mission package. “However, this typical rescue mission will soon turn into something much bigger,” Ubisoft said in a statement. Operation Oracle is automatically available if you

Peter Mayhew, the actor who portrayed Chewbacca in the original Star Wars trilogy, is dead. A year later he landed a job on the set of Star Wars: A New Hope, playing Han Solo’s furry sidekick. Creator George Lucas said the Chewbacca role was inspired by his own dog, Indiana, an Alaskan Malamute. Mayhew would go on to reprise his famous role in 2005’s Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith and The Force Awakens in 2015, although health complications slowed him. “He fought his way back from being wheelcha

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, the long-awaited spiritual successor to producer Koji “Iga” Igarashi’s brand of Castlevania games, is coming to PlayStation 4, Windows PC (via Steam and GOG.com), and Xbox One on June 18. Igarashi brought his “Igavania” game to Kickstarter nearly four years ago, where the game ultimately raised more than $5.5 million in crowdfunding donations. Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night’s release date announcement trailer addresses some of those issues, layering Kickstar

Nintendo is adding another massive collection of new games to the eShop over the next week. First up is Shakedown: Hawaii, which will arrive on the Nintendo eShop for Switch on May 7. Puyo Puyo Champions also arrives on May 7. Announced as Puyo Puyo eSports in Japan last September, Champions features the same ruleset as Puyo Puyo 2 and Puyo Puyo Fever. Here’s the rest of the titles going up on the Nintendo Switch eShop through May 8:

The original Star Wars Battlefront from 2004 is now available on both Steam and GOG.com as part of a Star Wars Day (May the Fourth) promotion with LucasArts. When GameSpy went kaput in 2014, it took down official multiplayer support for the original Battlefront with it. Star Wars Battlefront came to the Xbox Marketplace in April 2018 (and is $5.99), and Pandemic’s 2005 follow-up Battlefront 2 came to Xbox Live Games With Gold back in April. Battlefront 2 is on the PlayStation Store — but only as

It’s been more than four months since our first peek at the live-action Sonic the Hedgehog — and those legs — and now comes the time to process the movie’s take on Dr. Ivo “Eggman” Robotnik. Rumor: First look at Robotnik in the #SonicMovie, trailer releases tomorrow pic.twitter.com/IMf4pjQX6U — SEGAbits (@SEGAbits) April 29, 2019But there’s no rumor about it. Polygon can confirm that that’s Robotnik as seen in footage from previously screened trailers for Sonic the Hedgehog. We also expect the f

The free games available to Xbox Live Gold subscribers in May were announced on Monday, and include Marooners and The Golf Club 2019 featuring PGA Tour. The Golf Club 2019 is 2K Sports’ officially-licensed golf simulator, with a new career mode following the player through various golf tournaments and events. The two backward compatible Xbox 360 games in this month’s lineup are Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon, and Comic Jumper: The Adventures of Captain Smiley. The former is the fourth ga

Now comes a revelation at least as startling: Shovel Knight is actually a 3D game. (Indeed, the studio provides the camera tool Shesez uses to show how the game is rendered). Yes, Shovel Knight is a classic side-scrolling platformer, but the game has a 3D engine because Yacht Club didn’t really know what it wanted to do at the time they got started. Another bonus is that a game in a 3D engine was easier for them to troubleshoot and debug. The perspective bending and explanation starts at the two

But there was one actress rumored to appear in the film who didn’t make the final cut: 13 Reason Why’s Katherine Langford. When Endgame finally hit theaters this week, 13 Reason Why viewers were on the lookout for Langford. In the end, everyone started to question where they’d even heard that Langford was supposed to be in Endgame. On April 25, during an Instagram Story Q&A session, Langford responded to an inquiry about her alleged character with a “…” Hard feelings about a cut scene? Regardl

There’s a beat in Avengers: Endgame that doesn’t quite land the way it’s supposed to. note: Major spoilers for Avengers: Endgame follow.] Black Widow’s death builds on emotional groundwork that hasn’t been laidNatasha’s death, which can’t be undone, has curiously little impact. The assumed gut-punch does itself no favors in the way that it mirrors Gamora’s death in Infinity War, down to the way Natasha’s body is posed. It’s not unnecessarily dragged out or tonally uneven, the way Natasha’s is.

But one in particular, featuring the Star-Spangled Man himself, Captain America, isn’t just a callback to past movies. That is, in the middle of rehashing the first Avengers, Avengers: Endgame recreates a scene from Captain America: The Winter Soldier. With a whispered “Hail Hydra,” Captain America walks out with the scepter. What a cute way to reference Captain America: The Winter Soldier’s most memetic moment! But the lead up to it started much earlier, with the first reveal that Captain Ameri

People didn’t understand why Epic Games would undo something that clearly made for better competitive play. According to popular streamers and the vocal Fortnite players on social media, the game is getting worse and making them want to play less. But players who enjoy Fortnite as a competitive game are vastly outnumbered by the people who play Fortnite just to have fun. The problem is that it’s the hardcore players who stream the game nonstop that have become the face of Fortnite online. “Fortn

Actor and former pro basketball player Rick Fox says he’s leaving Echo Fox, the esports organization he helped found in 2015, in response to racist remarks made by a company shareholder, according to a report by Dexerto. “I will not support or be associated with such behaviour and attitudes displayed at the shareholder level,” Fox reportedly said. Echo Fox originally formed after Rick Fox bought North American League of Legends Championship Series team Gravity Gaming. Rick Fox has been a passion

Bran isn’t the Night King — who wants to destroy Westeros’s past and present — but the two of them are inexorably linked. Both characters could die, together, if Bran’s plan is successful and he’s able to lure the Night King to the Godswood. The memory of Westerosi tradition — just like the memory of Bran himself — would persevere in the minds of the living. He’s as much a threat to the new world as the Night King, albeit in a very different way. The third episode of Game of Thrones season 8 wil
