GSC Game World has announced that STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl has officially gone gold. This means the game is done, and a master copy has been sent for mass production (the game will be released on physical discs for Xbox, in addition to digital). In theory, this means no more delays are in order, although there's a famous precedent: CD Projekt RED's Cyberpunk 2077, which was confirmed to have gone gold on October 5, 2020, ahead of its planned November 19, 2020 launch date. However, on October 27, the Polish developer was forced to announce a short delay to […]

Free-to-play shooter Halo Infinite just got a long, long overdue update to one of its more troubled modes: Big Team Battle. Featuring 24 players at once, Infinite’s large-scale playlist was always beleaguered by the fact that it had too few maps. Any s...
The second episode of Halo’s secondseason isn’t bad, by any means, but it’s not quite as memorable as the previous episode. Instead, “Sword” is a reminder that the Halo series is strongest when it focuses on the Spartans’ stories, whether it’s John’s a...

If Death Stranding is not your usual Hideo Kojima vibe, it sounds like Kojima Productions is working on something more along the lines of Metal Gear Solid. During the State of Play presentation that took place on January 31, Kojima joined Sony’s Hermen...
Alan Wake II’s 1.15 update is now live on Xbox, PlayStation and PC. It fixes a ton of bugs, improves some visual issues, and also adds an option to make the game a little less scary. Importantly, it may also render the game more playable for those with...
It seems like everytime a new mainline Final Fantasy game is released, the first criticism is that it doesn’t capture the same spirit as classic entries in the franchise. And while every new entry has its defenders, there is a general notalgia for the ...
There’s more to do in Palworld than just capturing adorable not-Pokémon and forcing them into conscripted labor. You can also force them to mate! From Pal breeding to the best loadouts and attachments for the latest Warzoneweaponry, these are the week’...
One of Halo Infinite’s last major updates allowed users to spawn AI from the single-player campaign in multiplayer matches. Combined with the depth of Halo’s map creator, Forge, it was only a matter of time until folks harnessed this to start recreatin...
In September 2011, I was a college junior very willing to waste away the early days of her fall semester playing Epic Games’ new third-person shooter, Gears of War 3. I pre-ordered the highly anticipated title so I could guarantee I got the gold Retro ...
Halo Infinite is killing its seasonal model in 2024. Three years after its initial launch, the live-service multiplayer shooter is shifting toward more bite-sized, 20-level battle passes arriving every four to six weeks. Developer 343 industries announ...
