Dragon Age: The Veilguard Companions Are More Realized Because You Can’t Control Them, Says BioWare

During Kai's trip to San Francisco to play Dragon Age: The Veilguard, he was able to secure an exclusive interview with BioWare's Francois Chaput (Missions and Level Design Director) and Matt Rhodes (Art Director). Later, though, he also participated in a roundtable Q&A with Game Directors Corinne Busche and John Epler where various colleagues from the press were able to ask their questions. One of the most interesting answers came on the topic of companions, which are the very focus of Dragon Age: The Veilguard and even prompted the title change from Dreadwolf. When asked when they decided companions wouldn't […]

Dragon Age: The Veilguard Exclusive Q&A – ‘No Side Quest Exists Without Contributing to the Narrative’

During our trip to San Francisco to play Dragon Age: The Veilguard for the first time, we had the chance to speak with two members of BioWare's development team: Francois Chaput, Missions and Level Design Director, and Matt Rhodes, Art Director, both of which delved into their respective areas of expertise. As a reminder, Dragon Age: The Veilguard will launch on October 31, almost ten years after the previous installment's release. It will be available for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X. I know you are taking a different approach as far as levels go. Rather than trying to […]

Dragon Age: The Veilguard Hands-On Preview – Rook Takes Queen, Checkmate

BioWare and Electronic Arts recently invited a select number of media and influencers, Wccftech included, to their western California campus to get some of the first hands-on with their long-awaited sequel to the Dragon Age franchise. It’s been a long time coming and a series of iterations to get to where we are now and with the release only a handful of weeks away, gamers will finally have the opportunity to take up the mantle of The Veilguard. Built upon the narrative started nearly two decades ago and touched on as recently as Dragon Age: Inquisition’s DLC, Dragon Age: The […]

Helldivers 2 Players Finally Liberate Malevelon Creek, AKA ‘Robot Vietnam’

Helldivers 2 Topped PS5 and PC Revenue Charts in US and UK Last Month, Gaming Market Research Firm Says

Helldivers 2, Arrowhead Game Studio's highly successful sequel to 2015's Helldivers, was the highest-growing title on PC and PS5 in the US and UK in February 2024. That's what leading gaming market research firm Newzoo writes in a new article on its blog. A lot has been said and written about the success of Arrowhead's game with recent claims that the game has sold way over 5 million copies across both PC and PS5 since its launch last month, and topping sales charts. In the new article from Newzoo, the research firm has shared some interesting (estimated) figures, monthly active […]

Helldivers 2 Is Addressing Its Bug Problem In More Than One Way

Mechs Are Coming To Helldivers 2, If You Can Liberate Tien Kwan

Helldivers 2 Studio Debunks PlayStation Acquisition Rumors

PlayStation Buying Helldivers 2 Studio Arrowhead Game Studios Debunked by CEO

No, Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead Game Studios isn't being purchased by PlayStation. That's what Arrowhead's CEO and Creative Director on Helldivers 2, Johan Pilestedt, has confirmed on X just now. Yesterday, rumors about Sony purchasing the Swedish independent developer surfaced after a 'leaker' claimed that the studio has already been bought by Sony. In addition, the leaker claimed that an announcement would follow shortly. This 'leaker' is the same person who initially claimed that Sony would soon be confirming the PC version of Ghost of Tsushima - a claim that was later backed by insider Shpeshal Nick. On X, however, Pilestedt has […]

Helldivers 2 Game Master ‘Abilities’ Detailed by Arrowhead Creative Director

Arrowhead's hit title Helldivers 2 has a 'Game Master' feature in which a single developer at the studio is controlling the galactic war. On X, Arrowhead's Creative Director and CEO Johan Pilestedt has provided additional details. Last month, Arrowhead and Sony revealed that the Helldivers sequel featured a game master feature, allowing for co-op fights to be coordinated in real-time. In a new interview with PCGamer, CEO Johan Pilestedt talked about this feature, revealing that there's an actual person (called Joel) at Arrowhead controlling the war - the feature takes a lot of inspiration from the dungeon master as seen […]

Latest Helldivers 2 Patch Improves Login Speed on PS5, Addresses Super Credits Issue and More

Arrowhead Game Studios has rolled out a new Helldivers 2 patch (version 1.000.13), which improves the login speed on PlayStation 5, and more. Another day, another patch for Arrowhead's hit title it would seem. Without a doubt, the developer is hard at work to further improve the co-op sci-fi shooter on both PS5 and PC - recently a patch already increased the server cap to 700K players. Today's update not only improves login speed on PlayStation 5, but should also reduce the amount of error messages on Sony's console. In addition, this new patch addresses an issue where Super Credits […]

Helldivers 2 Has Sold 3 Million Units in Just Over Two Weeks; Director Says DLSS Is ‘Cool But Not Necessary’

Helldivers 2 continues to sell well. The game had surpassed one million units sold just four days after its February 8 launch. Arrowhead Creative Director Johan Pilestedt has now confirmed it is around three million units just over two weeks after the release. As noted by GamesIndustry's Chris Dring, Helldivers 2 improved its sales in Europe by 40% from the first to the second week, which is very rare (usually, games start very strong on their launch weeks and then continue to drop off from there). Dring also said over 60% of the sales are on PC. There's a downside […]
