Gosh, Xbox really did that to Game Pass, huh? And Elden Ring’s beloved DLC is letting down some fans? Yeah, it’s been a week of spicy opinions, and we’ve got them all here, including our impressions of that loot-shooter The First Descendent. Read throu...
Released last week, The First Descendant is a new sci-fi third-person looter shooter from Nexon that feels like a mix between Warframe, Destiny, and The Division. Yet despite mixed reviews and controversy involving icons and in-game purchases, The Firs...
NEXON's The First Descendant launched last week on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X. The free-to-play looter shooter game immediately entered Steam's Top 10 live chart (despite mixed reviews from users on Steam), and it looks like it has continued to perform well. Today, the official Twitter/X account of The First Descendant celebrated reaching 10 million players across all platforms in the first week. We don't have split numbers, of course. However, SteamDB registered a concurrent player peak of 264K five days ago. Estimates of 'owners' on Valve's Steam range from 1.37 million players (according to VG Insights) to […]
Korean mega publisher Nexon recently released its own take on the free-to-play looter shooter with The First Descendant. Since the birth of the genre over a decade ago, many titles have come and gone, but two of them have stood near the top pretty cons...
The First Descendant, Nexon’s new third-person sci-fi free-to-play online looter shooter is a lot like a bowl of so-so mac and cheese. I promise that opening sentence will make some sense by the end of this article, okay? Read more...
I’ve had some fun with The First Descendant but I wouldn’t say a strong, distinctive art style is one of its core virtues. It’s a pretty derivative game from head-to-toe. Now it turns out that some of the free-to-play loot shooter’s in-game icons appea...
We might be getting another chance to revisit our favorite people and places from Game of Thrones. That’s according to a new report from Witcher and Game of Thrones news site Redanian Intelligence, which claims that an MMORPG set during the height of t...
A long time ago, an MMORPG called Game of Thrones: Seven Kingdoms was in development at Bigpoint and Artplant, who previously made Battlestar Galactica Online. Announced in 2012, it would have been a browser game focused mostly on Player versus Player combat, where players could form their own small houses (guilds, essentially) and align themselves with the Stark, Baratheon, or Lannister great houses. However, the game never saw the light of day. According to a new report, though, those yearning for a Game of Thrones MMO can rejoice, as NEXON is said to be making one. The news comes from […]
We’ve already had an unusual number of showcases and announcements this year, and it seems this particular train is going to keep right on rolling. Today Microsoft announced an Xbox Partner Preview, which will showcase over a dozen trailers for games coming to PC, Xbox, and/or Game Pass. We don’t have a full list of games that will be shown during the Xbox Partner Preview, but Microsoft has let a bit of info out of the bag. Players can look forward to fresh gameplay from Capcom’s unique-looking Japanese-mythology-inspired adventure Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, the African-inspired EA Originals Metroidvania Tales […]
Yesterday, NEXON announced Vindictus: Defying Fate, a new action RPG scheduled to launch on PC and later on consoles. Fans of the 2010 MMORPG would be correct in assuming this is set in the same franchise. As such, characters, locations, and monsters may be similar or identical to that game, but most elements will be completely different. The official FAQ on the Steam page says: Vindictus: Defying Fate aims for a somewhat heavier and restrained battle system. For example, unlike Vindictus, you cannot fight enemies as being attacked by them. Moreover, attack speed is not one of the stat systems, […]
Within the last few years, video game industry layoffs have unfortunately become more commonplace. In 2023, we saw near-weekly layoffs across the entire industry. When the dust had settled, at least 6,000 jobs across publishers, developers, and other v...
At TGA 2023, Nexon announced the release window for its free-to-play cooperative looter shooter, The First Descendant. The game will be released in Summer 2024 on PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X. The news was accompanied by a cinematic trailer featuring characters Valby and Viessa, as well as a new mysterious face. Nexon also announced that over two million gamers played the recent Open Beta test from more than 200 countries, with North American countries being the most active. Over 3,405 years of playtime have already been spent on the test. Viessa proved to be the most popular […]
The PlayStation 5 Pro brings considerable visual and performance improvements in several titles, including Resident Evil Village, Resident Evil 4 remake, Demon's Souls, and others. In the tests conducted by Brazil Pixel, the latest two entries in the CAPCOM survival horror series powered by the RE Engine show considerable performance improvements. Resident Evil Village, for example, runs at locked 120 frames per second in HFR without ray tracing at 1080p resolution, which is quite impressive to see on a console in a relatively recent game. The Resident Evil 4 remake, on the other hand, doesn't reach the same locked 120 […]
