At the beginning of the year, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth launched a hell of an opening salvo. The latest installment in the long-running Like a Dragon/Yakuza series is comically full of things to do. On one hand, it’s a turn-based RPG epic, splitti...
It's seemingly confirmed that Horizon Zero Dawn is getting a remaster, despite the fact it really doesn't need one. Sony is focusing on making the games look a bit cleaner and visually striking instead of rebooting or porting franchises that people actually care about. Although it hasn't been officially confirmed that a Horizon Zero Dawn remaster is coming, it's quite likely since the rumor has been floating around since 2022. People now believe this is happening because the supposed remastered version has been rated by the ESRB, listening to PC and PlayStation 5 as the platforms. In the latest Game […]
Joker 2, technically titled Joker: Folie à Deux, is just a couple of weeks away, and the final trailer has arrived to try and seal the deal for potential audience goers who are still on the fence about whether a “jukebox” musical is how they want to se...
The A18 Pro powering the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max had already cemented its position as Apple’s fastest smartphone silicon to date by being 18 percent faster than last year’s A17 Pro in Geekbench 6’s Metal benchmark while also trading blows with the M1 in the single-core and multi-core department. In the latest GFXBench Aztec Ruins test, the newest SoC once again reaches a new performance plateau, but a closer look at the comparison reveals that it had to operate at a higher power draw to achieve this difference, resulting in a worse ‘performance per watt’ ratio. In the […]
Sea of Thieves debuted on PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch last month and has done rather well on Sony's console, managing to become among the most downloaded titles for the last month. A new post on the Official PlayStation Blog confirmed how Rare's pirate-themed multiplayer game was the most downloaded game in Europe, beating smashing successes like Grand Theft Auto V and Helldivers 2. In the US and Canada, the game was "only" the third most downloaded game in April, right after the aforementioned Helldivers 2 and Shift Up's Stellar Blade. The release of Sea of Thieves and Hi-Fi Rush […]
After spending over five years as a PC and Xbox exclusive, Microsoft recently announced that Rare’s well-liked online pirate game Sea of Thieves is setting sail to PlayStation 5 (along with a handful of other previously-exclusive titles). The game arrives in Sony’s harbours later this month, but those who want to try the game out early on PS5 will be able to jump into the game’s open beta this week! Those looking to jump into the beta just need to pre-order the game, and those who participate get a little PS5-exclusive cosmetic bonus. The Sea of Thieves @PlayStation 5 Closed […]
Last week Microsoft provided an update on Xbox exclusivity plans, saying big games like Starfield won’t be going multiplatform, but that a series of four more established or lower-profile games were making the jump. While Phil Spencer wouldn’t say what they were at the time, we now know they’re Grounded, Pentiment, Hi-Fi Rush, and… Sea of Thieves! Interestingly, this will be the first time a Rare-developed game has ever appeared on PlayStation – obviously, the company has a long history with Nintendo and Microsoft, but the nature of their first-party situation means making games for Sony platforms was never in […]
After all the delays, trailers, and start-and-stop hype cycles, Ubisoft’s highly(?) anticipated pirate simSkull and Bones is in beta. The game was meant to release in 2018, then 2019, but at least now there’s an open beta and your progress will carry o...
Could Rare’s Sea of Thieves be setting sail to Sony and Nintendo platforms? In recent days, insider Nate the Hate got the rumor mill churning when he stated a “acclaimed” Xbox exclusive may make the jump to other platforms. Piggybacking on these rumors, on the most recent episode of Game Mess Mornings wanton leaker Jeff Grubb said Sea of Thieves was his first thought when talk of an Xbox game coming to other platforms surfaced, as he’s heard the game “could” come to Switch and PlayStation. "Sea of Thieves, right---I'll say I've heard that is one that might be coming […]

Nintendo has officially announced that it is suing PocketPair, the creators of Palworld, in collaboration with The Pokemon Company. In a statement on NintendoCoLtd on X, Nintendo filed a patent infringement lawsuit in the Tokyo District Court on September 18, 2024. This lawsuit aims to seek an injunction against infringement and damages after PocketPair allegedly infringed multiple patents in Palworld. This news isn't surprising, except that it didn't come sooner. Palworld was first released in January 2024. In the game, there are plenty of "Pals" that look incredibly similar to the creatures in Pokemon, to the point that it's bordering […]
