There’s nothing definitively wrong with being an iterative clone of something else people already love. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery and all that. So I don’t really mind that on the surface, the new gacha open-world RPG Wuthering Waves l...
This morning, Chinese developer HoYoverse (previously known as miHoYo) announced that its next game, Zenless Zone Zero, will be released on July 4 on all platforms: PC, PlayStation 5, Android, and iOS devices.

Zenless Zone Zero is the latest free-to-play action-RPG from the makers of Genshin Impact, but unlike some of their other games, console players aren't being neglected, as the PC and PlayStation 5 versions of the game will likely launch at the same time (or at least in close proximity). Despite this, HoYoverse has yet to run any tests on the PS5 (they have run a number of betas on PC). Well, thankfully, testing will begin on PS5 soon! Today sign-ups for the Zenless Zone Zero Technical Test opened up – you’ll only be able to sign up for the next week, […]
