Hopefully it lives up to the series’ potential Avatar: The Last Airbenderis one of the most beloved TV series of all time (and for good reason), and it’s about damn time it got another video game adaptation. This week Square Enix and Navigator Games announced that they’re collaborating on anAvatar: The Last Airbendermobile game for Android and iOS, which is launching in Canada, South Africa, and Sweden this month ahead of a wider release....

‘Hunted’ was just released this week I think Ubisoft is doing right byAssassin’s Creed Odyssey.They made a killer base game and are building on it, but even if you aren’t keen on getting any paid DLC there’s a few free updates to keep you going: plus the thing is pretty huge in general. It’s nice to have something like that to hold us over since the series is taking a break in 2019....

Xingqiu is a 4-star Hydro Sword off-field DPS inGenshin Impact.Here are the best weapons, artifacts, and teams to bring out the power of Guhua! Playstyles Xingqiu is anoff-field DPSwho deals damage with his Burst. Casting his Burst summons a set of rain swords around him, which mitigate damage taken and provide interruption resistance. The rain swords persist when swapping to a different character. When your active character performs a Normal Attack with Xingqiu’s Burst active, it will proc a coordinated sword rain attack that deals single-target Hydro damage....

Last week, we brought word that fans were correcting the numerous, borderline insulting errors inMass Effect: Deception, a tie-in novel by William C. Dietz. The novel’s earned an avalanche of complaints and has beenAmazon bombed, so it’s unsurprising that BioWare has had to respond. “The teams at Del Rey and BioWare would like to extend our sincerest apologies to theMass Effectfans for any errors and oversights made in the recent novelMass Effect: Deception,” said BioWare community leader Chris Priestly....

10 years of mass murder 2017 marks the 10th anniversary of theUnchartedseries (holy shit time flies) and Naughty Dog has a freebie to give fans. If you act fast, youcan nab a bundlewith some PS4 themes and avatars to deck out your PSN profile. It conspicuously leavesUncharted 3out of the mix, but at least you’re able to show off your love for the series in style. The bundle will be free until November 21, so don’t dawdle....

I’m not sayingMinecraftis entirely infinite, but it definitely has the kind of longevity most other games would kill for. Much of it comes down to the near-endless creative possibilities, but also the mods. Mods and add-ons are what keep the gaming world a-turnin’, and Mojang has now added…add-ons to the game. Okay, so if you thought this was old news, think again. In a recent post on the officialMinecraftwebsite, the Bedrock Edition of the game now has add-ons available in the Marketplace....

Questions of morality Crusader Kings IIis a fantastic strategy game that combines the best of real-world geographical locations, history, and unique player-driven stories. That said, when I’m not playingCrusader Kings II, one of my favorite pastimes is browsing the community page on Steam or the various subreddits. Why? It’s simple: without the lens of context, it becomes one of the most hilarious (and disturbing) communities out there. Truly, one of the most troubling things a father can go through is trying to stop his son from banging his own mother....

Celebrating a classic Video games have changed a lot since their inception in the 1970s. For a long time, it seemed like it was impossible to divorce games from combat, but as the medium continued to mature, developers began experimenting with the form in ways we hadn’t seen before. Although games that put story first had been around for a good while,Dear Estherwas one of the first games to bring the walking simulator genre to the forefront of the games industry....

Spyro, Crash, Tearaway, and more Whether it’s games, movies, books, whatever, I love listening to creators talk about their craft. It can be enthralling to hear how the creative process differs between not only mediums, but individuals. One video series I’m fond of isDevs Play, a show put on by Double Fine and 2 Player Productions where seasoned developers chat about their games and share fun old anecdotes. While the first season touched on a bunch of genres,season twois centered on platform-action games....

It’s that bad Seeing a JapaneseMighty No. 9dev trash a commercialfrom his western publisher as “unforgivable” had me in stitches for a while. That specific choice of words is pretty amazing, and not something you see every day. Most people are talking about the phrase “cry like an anime fan on prom night,” because it alienates the entire audience of the game in one fell swoop. I’m not sure if this is supposed to be a parody, or what, but the whole situation is the icing on top ofthe spoiled cakethat’s been sitting out uneaten for the past few years or so....

Hopefully it comes as a post-launch patch WhileHogwartsLegacyhas a ton of stuff to do if you’re looking for a (frankly lengthy) 100% rating, it does not have a New Game+ mode. Let’s take a look at why that might be, and if it even makes sense to add one eventually in a post-launch patch. After you finish the main story ofHogwarts Legacy, you’re free to explore the rest of the world While there is no traditional New Game+ (NG+) mode inHogwarts Legacy, you are completely free to fly around and finish out everything left in the game....

Dragon’s Dogmamay not be as exciting asResident Evil 6orDmC: Devil May Cry, but it’s still the Capcom game I’m most intrigued by this year. With aunique co-op system, and a commitment to making you feel like amonster-bullying asshole,Dragon’s Dogmareally has me by the bollocks. Two new videos and a bunch of screens came out of that big Capcom preview event that all the posh people went to. You can look at them all right now if you like....

It seems like it’s a new staple for racing games Remember that one conference where that guy waslovingly talking about how realisticDriveclubwas, down to the real looking leather on the seats? That’s how I imagine executives talking about microtransactions. There’s probably some truth to that statement too, as microtransactions have been confirmed forDriveClub. Director Paul Rustchynsky states, “It’s been a hot topic of late inside gaming, and we’ve been very keen to take on board the feedback from gamers and verify we don’t upset anyone....
