Apple Might Launch Its Own Smart Home Camera As It Focuses On Providing A More Integrated Product Experience For Its Users

Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories.

Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League – How to Unlock The Joker Without Paying Money

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Episode 1 – Fear is out now, and one of the key pieces of new content included is a new playable version of the Joker. That said, if you’re expecting to jump right in and play as the Clown Prince of Crime, you’re in for a rude awakening – he has to be unlocked, either by playing the game or by spending premium currency. We’re going to assume for now that you’d rather not spend real money to get your hands on Joker, so scroll on down for the in-game method for unlocking him… […]

Like a Dragon Next Entry Auditions Announced; Kiwami 3 isn’t Next, But May Happen Someday

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth just released early this year, but it seems the next entry in what was previously known as the “Yakuza” series is already in full swing. As spotted by Gematsu, Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio announced auditions for the next Like a Dragon game during their latest video update. We don’t know the title of the next Like a Dragon yet, but series director Masayoshi Yokoyama did provide some clarification, saying Like a Dragon: Kiwami 3 (a remake of the third entry in the series) isn’t the next thing on the docket, although it is quite likely […]

Stellar Blade Demo Out, Both Performance and Quality Modes Deliver Nicely in Early Analysis

Stellar Blade is Sony’s big release for next month, but if you don’t want to wait, you can get a taste of the game today as a demo has just dropped (after being accidentally released for a minute earlier this month). The demo lets you experience the first chapter of the game or around one to two hours of gameplay. Check out a teaser trailer and a bit more detail, below. “The demo takes place from the very beginning of the game when Eve, a member of the 7th Airborne Squad is sent to Earth on a mission to reclaim […]

Rise of the Ronin Review – Neo Edo Open World

Rise of the Ronin struggles to find its identity in ways that hinder what would otherwise be one of Team Ninja's finest works. A compelling story told against the backdrop of the 1850s Bakumatsu Period is instead overshadowed by a vapid and uninspired open-world setting and a narrative that rarely feels like the player has agency.

Rise of the Ronin – Is There a New Game+ or Any Post-Game Unlockables?

Rise of the Ronin is the latest joint from Team Ninja, and while it’s a large, challenging game, some might be wondering – what happens after I roll credits? Is there a New Game+ I can tackle? Are there are post-game features and content I can unlock? Don’t worry, we’re here to take some of the mystery out of Rise of the Ronin’s endgame… Note: The following article doesn’t touch on any Rise of the Ronin plot details, some may still consider talk of its postgame SPOILER territory. Is there a New Game+ mode? No, there isn’t. Rather than start […]

Rise of the Ronin – Are there Multiple Endings and How do You Unlock Them?

Rise of the Ronin is the latest joint from Team Ninja, and unlike some of their past efforts, the game is surprisingly story-heavy. There are also a number of moments when you’ll be presented with important decisions to make, which begs the question – are their multiple endings? And how does one unlock them all? Scroll on down for the full lowdown on how RotR's story works… Note: The following article contains SPOILERS for Rise of the Ronin. Are there multiple endings in Rise of the Ronin? The answer is yes, but not as many as you might think. While […]

The Witcher “Polaris” Still Pre-Production, Witcher Remake, Cyberpunk Sequel in Concept Phase

The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 creators CD Projekt Red have reported their earnings for 2023 (their fiscal year corresponds with the regular calendar year) and it seems it was a good 12 months for the Polish publisher. 2023 was CDPR’s second-best year ever, thanks to the sales of the Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty expansion, which managed to move 5 million copies, which is added to the 20 million in sales for the original Cyberpunk 2077. CDPR has also announced that The Witcher series surpassed 75 million units sold last year. So, yes, if you’re doing the math (75 million […]

Monster Hunter Wilds Reportedly “By Far the Biggest” Game Capcom’s Made, Launching Q1 2025

This past December at The Game Awards we got a first peek at Monster Hunter Wilds, and while the trailer looked cool, it’s hard to know exactly how excited to be. The Monster Hunter games tend to range a bit in terms of ambition, but according to new rumors, the latest isn’t just one of the most ambitious Monster Hunter titles, it’s one of the biggest games Capcom has ever made period. Reliable Capcom insider Dusk Golem dropped a few more tidbits about Monster Hunter Wilds recently on their Discord channel, reiterating their earlier hints that the game will be […]

Overwatch 2 Players Can Dig into a Trial for New Hero “Venture” This Weekend

Overwatch 2 Season 10 kicks off next month, but if you want to try out the season’s hew hero Venture early, you can do it this weekend. Venture, who Blizzard is touting at their first non-binary character, is a Damage hero and, overall, one of the more unique-looking characters Blizzard has served up thus far. Basically, they can burrow under the ground ala Bugs Bunny (or Mario in his Drill Suit I suppose) allowing them to sneak behind enemy lines then burst out to deal damage. You can check Venture out in action, below. Not exactly the most realistic moveset, […]

Dragon’s Dogma 2 Mods Allow Players to Easily Bypass Microtransactions

Dragon’s Dogma 2 is finally here, and while many are enjoying the experience, there have been some complaints, leading to a bit of a mini-backlash against the game. One of the issues that’s brought up in a lot of negative reviews on Steam and elsewhere are microtransactions tied to items that provide quality-of-life features like being able to re-edit your character, place warp makers, and more. Now, most of these things can be earned via regular play in-game, but getting them is just difficult enough that some may be enticed to pay real money for them. Here’s the list of […]

Grand Theft Auto VI Reportedly Falling Behind its Early 2025 Target, Slip to 2026 Possible

Last December, after literally years of speculation, rumors, and leaks, Rockstar finally dropped the first teaser for Grand Theft Auto VI, with a broad 2025 release date attached. It was appropriate that the GTA VI trailer used a Tom Petty song, because the waiting is indeed the hardest part, but at least fans have a firm 2025 end goal in sight… right? Right? Well, about that… according to a new report from Kotaku, Rockstar’s current goal is to finally get Grand Theft Auto VI in our hands by early 2025, but production is falling behind where it needs to be, […]

Final Fantasy XVI “The Rising Tide” Story DLC Drops in April, Adds New Area, Ally, and More

We’ve known Final Fantasy XVI would be getting a pair of story expansions for some time now, with the first one, Echoes of the Fallen being more of a bite-sized experience. Thankfully, the second, The Rising Tide, will be much meatier, and today at a panel at PAX West, Square Enix pulled the curtain back on what to expect. The DLC will introduce a new area, the coastal land of Mysidia, an additional ally for your team named Shula, and the powerful water Eikon, Leviathan. You can check out a trailer for Final Fantasy XVI - The Rising Tide, below. […]
