One of the most influential RPG franchises to release in recent memory is Dark Souls. From Software’s blend of punishing difficulty and intricate world design cultivated an experience unlike any other. The game’s fragmented lore, tough bosses, and mysterious online elements made for one of the most unique and memorable titles anyone has experienced. Creating it wasn’t easy, though. Various interviews with From Software and leftover files reveal a smattering of cut content and design changes....

A great new entry in publisher Yacht Club Games’ portfolio, Mechanical Head Studios’ Cyber Shadow is the “quintessential ninja action game.” Following the hero on his apocalyptic crusade through the all-too-familiar cyberpunk setting of Mekacity, Cyber Shadow captured its audience almost immediately with its beautiful pixel art, pumped-up soundtrack, and classically challenging gameplay. Much like its ancestors in the Ninja Gaiden franchise, and its older brother Shovel Knight, Yacht Club’s newest promised quite an experience....

The highly anticipated Monster Hunter Rise is on the horizon, and this new entry in Capcom’s long-running series is looking better than ever before. The combat is fluid and aerodynamic, the graphics are stylized and appealing and the music is as sweeping and beautiful as it’s ever been (the full game will be free of that unfortunate slowdown from the demo, too). Yet none of these details can hold up to the true stars of the show: the varied and scaled beasts fought in Monster Hunter are the beating heart of the series’ fun....

When you learn about mythology in school, creatures like the Sirens, Hydras, and Chimeras didn’t sound so bad. However, take these guys and put them in a well-crafted survival horror game, or even in a challenging action-game level, and things change a bit. Mythological creatures can be intensely scary if they are represented in the right setting. What encounters have you had with these monsters? Some of them may be on this list....

The Red Dead franchise is full to the brim with some truly excellent games, with the bulk of this excellence coming through Rockstar Games after they managed to nab the rights to this IP. The first Red Dead Redemption game was brilliant enough as is, with the open-world and story being some of the very best that gamers had seen a decade ago. However, with the release of its sequel, fans were treated to one of the biggest advancements ever made in the open-world genre....

Role-playing goes hand in hand with the gaming industry. From tabletop to MMOs, a wide spectrum of games falls into the RPG category. With such a broad overreaching umbrella, it can become a challenge to play every RPG that piques a players interest, and that’s where streamers come in. Platforms like Twitch, YouTube, and even Facebook host an even larger network of streamers who love showcasing RPGs in their many forms....

Bugsnax has made history as it was the first free PS Plus game for the PlayStation 5, and many consider it the first PlayStation 5 game to officially release. The game puts players on an island full of bugs that resemble and taste just like the food they resemble. Players must go to the mysterious island where they live to learn more about the creatures and save themselves from being fired....

Only two weeks out from its official worldwide release, the English dub cast of 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim has finally been announced. The English voice cast began announcing their roles on social media over the weekend following the release of the game’s first English trailer on Atlus West’s official Twitter account. The cast was directed by Christian La Monte, who expressed his excitement online over the game’s release and gratitude towards the talented cast and production team....

Yakuza: Like A Dragon may be different than its predecessors, but a lot of the weird magic that has left players charmed for almost two decades now returns full-blast. From saving a persimmon from a practicing sumo wrestler to getting clothes for someone only concealed by bubbles, the whacky factor is top-notch in this game. On that oddball humor note, there are also some things that don’t make sense. The series has always had a juxtaposition between serious stories and weird comedy, but they usually play off each other well....

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is one of the best games Ubisoft has ever put out and one of the strongest games to come out in 2018. Players get to play as Kassandra or Alexios, a mercenary from the nation of Sparta before their family was torn apart. While the game came out years ago, Odyssey is still worth diving into. However, players who haven’t played the game should check these tips out first....

Okay, let’s get something out of the way. Yes, a lot of the console games I’m going to talk about are available on some sort of 3rd party emulator, but the article is entirely focused on legal ports of the game. I know that there will be tons of people point and saying this game or that can, in fact, be played on PC, but now we’re clear on the point of this piece....

After defeating the final boss in Remnant: From The Ashes, you’re probably looking for more. The game has been free for a brief moment on the Epic Games store, so even more players have emerged to conquer the Root-rotten realms. The first wave of people who purchased the game before DLCs and freebies have beaten it without the new added content. Naturally, a true gamer would go back and find all the new items and bosses....

The Assassin’s Creed games reach a lot of fans on an annual basis, and this won’t change with the series’ newest last-gen entry, Assassin’s Creed Rogue. While the game has only been announced for Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3, a PC version is still a hopeful possibility. New details regarding the PC version have been spotted, but until Ubisoft discusses the potential release themselves officially, we only have the rumors to go on....

Warner Bros. Montreal has one hard act to follow: with Batman: Arkham Origins, they won’t just be building a game around one of the most iconic superheroes of all time, but trying to live up to two of the best action titles of this generation. Although fans of Arkham Asylum and Arkham City may bristle at the thought of the property being handed off to such a green studio - they were founded solely for this series - but the newest look behind the scenes proves they’re fans of Rocksteady’s work, and are looking not to tarnish the franchise, but understand what made it so successful, and emulate it....

A week before the Battlefield 4 event in San Francisco last month during the Game Developer’s Conference, leaks, rumors and teasers provided fans a looking developer DICE’s first foray into next-generation gaming. Battlefield 4 so far, is largely similar to BF3. It runs on an improved version of the same engine (dubbed Frostbite 3), is based in a modern setting with similar weapons and vehicles, and from the marketing thus far, is attempting to focus on its single-player campaign....

When Paul W. S. Anderson released Event Horizon in 1997, he was fresh off the success of a very different kind of violent thriller: 1995’s Mortal Kombat. Anderson’s adaptation of the popular fighting game spawned his relationship with Paramount Pictures, which gave the director $60 million for Event Horizon - his third feature film. Set in 2047, the film follows a group of astronauts tasked with recovering a ship lost seven years earlier....

With E3 2015 slated to arrive next week, developers and publishers alike have not been holding back reveals and secrets these past few weeks leading up to the big event. In a time where big reveals are typically kept under lock and key, this year has proven to be the exact opposite with new information rushing out like water. One such announcement came from Bethesda who finally revealed the long rumored Fallout 4....

When it comes to the success of failure of a title within the zombie survival genre, the first thing that no doubt comes to players’ minds is the effective presence of the zombies themselves. Close behind this though, is the mood that the game is able to evoke. It’s one thing to drop a player into a hostile world and make them fear for their life, but it’s another to use simple, everyday features to aid in inspiring dread....

All good things must come to an end, even a series as profitable and popular as Mass Effect. Today - as promised - the minds behind Mass Effect 3 have announced the price and release date for both the Citadel DLC, adding new content to the singleplayer portion of the game, and the Reckoning multiplayer expansion. A return to the Citadel will bring new locations and crew interactions (with new threats and enemies), but sadly, players won’t be discovering them alongside their friends....
