Back in August, my partner and I decided to invest in Whisker’s Litter-Robot 3, which I raved about in my subsequent review that you can check out here. While there was a bit of a learning curve for my sweet furbaby, he has since adjusted and all the p...

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has been an exciting entry for the franchise, likely bolstered by its same-day launch on Game Pass. It also helps that there’s a healthy mix of new offerings and the return of beloved mechanics. When talking about the latter, ...
Helldivers 2's next battle pass is just around the corner. Arrowhead Studios announced that the Polar Patriots Warbond, featuring new weapons and Arctic-themed armor, will drop on May 9. It’s the third battle pass the co-op shooter has received in as ...
The former NPD Group (now named “Circana”) has released its full North American sales data for March, and it seems like it was an up-and-down month for the industry. Players spent $4.9 billion on games, additional content, and hardware in March, up 4 percent year-on-year. This increase came from mobile and software spending, as hardware sales were down 31 percent year-on-year with PS5 #1 in terms of unit and dollar sales, Switch #2 in terms of unit sales, and Xbox Series X/S #2 in terms of dollar sales. In terms of software, Capcom’s Dragon’s Dogma 2 was the big winner […]
Helldivers 2 was patched earlier this week and introduced some sweeping changes with it. Among the more notable adjustments are a much-needed reduction in fire damage and a broad increase in damage output, but it’s an otherwise innocuous patch note abo...
Helldivers 2 has dropped its latest update, and while it mostly focuses on balance changes, there are a lot of balance changes to talk about. Well over half the weapons in the game have received changes, with some, like the LAS-99 Quasar Cannon and R-36 Eruptor, getting pretty significant nerfs. Another major change is that more enemies will now spawn for those playing solo or running squads of less than four players. Arrowhead explains this is actually how they originally intended to the game to be, as previously the game was actually easier with fewer players. Now, for instance, if […]

Helldivers 2 players have strong feelings about the planets they’re fighting to defend in the game’s ongoing galactic war. First there was Malevelon Creek, which became a notorious hotspot for players, after it was dubbed “Robot Vietnam” due to its fla...
A very interesting rumor came out of the latest episode of the XboxEra podcast, with insider Shpeshal_Nick claiming to have heard that a Helldivers 2 Xbox port is currently under consideration at Sony. We know that PlayStation has a new CEO at the moment. I think the CEO might be a little more open to certain things. What I've heard, again, just the rumor that I've heard, is that there may be some very very early - very early - preliminary discussions about the possibility of Helldivers 2 coming to Xbox. Remember what I said, though. It doesn't mean it's […]
Helldivers 2 is an extremely popular game, far more than probably either Arrowhead or Sony hoped for. That said, it isn't perfect, and the developers are well aware of that. In a series of very frank posts on Reddit, Helldivers 2 Game Director and Arrowhead founder Johan Pilestedt wrote: We are optimizing our processes and hiring devs to boost the team. But 100 is still a decent size for a development team, and we are aware of the issues in the releases - we will do better in the future. We want to deliver the best in the industry and […]
