It has been fourteen years since Team Fortress 2’s launch. Valve broke new ground with the refreshing arcade-style FPS game. Team Fortress 2 is highly regarded as one of the most innovative first-person shooters of all time. The sequel to the classic Team Fortress combined the brilliant idea of having character abilities with marked graphical improvements. Team Fortress 2 was released with the Orange Box, which included both Half Life 2 and Portal....

For many Fortnite fans, it will come as little surprise that Epic’s battle royale sensation is providing significant income for a number of dedicated players. In fact, the extremely popular content creator Tyler “Ninja” Blevins reportedly made $10 million in 2018, with 70% of this revenue coming from his Fortnite-focused Twitch and YouTube channels. However, some may be amazed to learn that a player as young as 14-years-old is now making a six-figure salary off of the game....

Though we still have a little under three months until its release, the gaming public has been more or less inundated with information about Assassin’s Creed Revelations. While many of you fans are likely still scratching your head trying to decipher the mysterious adventures ahead, today brings us a somewhat different sort of trailer. One that details the bonus content available with the Assassin’s Creed Revelations Animus Edition. We already know a good deal about Revelations, like how the game’s story will begin, many of the locations the globe-trotting killers will visit, and what time periods it will cover....

At this point, it’s safe to say that Assassin’s Creed Unity isn’t the rousing success that Ubisoft was hoping for. Only a few days ago, Unity was one of this fall’s most highly anticipated titles; now, it’s quickly becoming a punchline due to a host of performance issues and a number of hilarious (and sometimes terrifying) glitches. The critics haven’t been kind, either. While Game Rant’s own Andrew Dyce found Assassin’s Creed Unity an acceptable if imperfect step towards the future, other outlets have been significantly less kind....

While leaks are nothing new to the folks at Ubisoft, especially those who work on the Assassin’s Creed games, we’ve come to expect them only during a certain time of the year. Typically, first details leak for the current year’s Assassin’s Creed title about 6 months before release; it happened with Unity, and Black Flag, and even Assassin’s Creed 3. Well, consider the mold broken, as first details for NEXT YEAR’s Assassin’s Creed, allegedly titled Assassin’s Creed Victory, have already made their way online....

This week saw the release of Havoc, the first DLC package for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. In typical COD DLC fashion, the pack includes four new multiplayer maps, as well as a new weapon and weapon variant. However, unlike past Call of Duty DLC offerings, Havoc also includes a little something extra in the form of Exo Zombies. The mode draws heavily from past iterations of Zombies in the Call of Duty franchise, but throws some near-future tech in for good measure....

Paradox Interactive and Colossal Order have an unexpected hit on their hands, with Cities: Skylines garnering over 250,000 sales in its first day on the market this week. The game was labelled as one of the best city-building experiences to date, and the debut trailer certainly made the game look gorgeous, massive and entertaining. Read on to find out whether Cities: Skylines delivers on all of its promises. We questioned whether Cities: Skylines could succeed where SimCity ultimately failed, and the question is answered with a resounding yes....

The Dark Souls franchise has made a name for itself by bringing hardcore, unforgiving gameplay back into the limelight. Starting with 2009’s Demon Souls, developer From Software built up a loyal fan base by crafting games that tasked players with truly working to make progress. From Software wasn’t interested in making games with regenerating health and ample checkpoints; if players wanted to beat Demon’s Souls, they would have to work for it....

Despite a set up that would lend itself perfectly to a co-op mode, Darksiders 2 developer Vigil Games has confirmed this iteration will not feature any multiplayer. Obviously, since the game is focused on four different horsemen of the apocalypse, one would assume that the idea of a four player co-op title featuring each horseman as playable has been brought up a number of times, but it just isn’t the cards right now — although Vigil did consider it....

Despite plenty of attention from press and mainstream gamers alike, Turtle Rock Studios’ Evolve is something of an unknown quantity. Sure, it’s 4v1, asymmetrical multiplayer concept sounds cool, and by and large the ideas built around that concept have been appealing since the first reveal, but it’s still unclear whether gamers will actually flock to the game like Turtle Rock hopes. Hoping to make that decision a little easier, Turtle Rock has decided to lift the Evolve review embargo a day before release....

While developer Rockstar Games might want to keep the main narrative-based experience of their games secret, that doesn’t mean they aren’t above dropping a juicy detail here and there. With Max Payne 3, their forthcoming sequel to the popular noir thriller, Rockstar has kept gamers mostly in the dark aside from a few screenshots, a trailer, and some slim details. In fact, you’d be hard pressed to find many gamers who knew that Max Payne 3 was going to be featuring its own multiplayer mode, one that, unlike its video game brethren, will actually tie back into the storyline....

Mojang has been busy with Minecraft development lately, recently announcing that the popular block-based builder may come to PlayStation when Microsoft’s console-exclusivity contract expires. On the PC side of things, we had previously revealed the Redstone Update would be arriving in March, and Mojang has now confirmed that this will the case. The Norway-based studio has officially posted the Minecraft Pre-Release on their website (download it here), meaning gamers willing to beta-test can try out the new update before it officially comes to all clients next week....

Many games made by people who love games can become somewhat derivative in the sense that developers often try to emulate what they love. Why Am I Dead At Sea does this by essentially marrying the graphics of Earthbound with the ghost detective concept featured in games like Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective and Murdered: Soul Suspect. Yet the game manages to be something wonderfully unique, with an intriguing possession mechanic and plenty of personality....

Even though the PlayStation Portable and the PlayStation Vita weren’t the runaway success stories that Sony was hoping for, they still had a good library of games. More specifically, they had a very impressive selection of RPGs and JRPGs, much like their rivals in the Nintendo DS and the 3DS. The smaller systems meant that developers didn’t need the huge budgets that were required of the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 to tell a great story....

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater is all about racking up the biggest combos possible, and this goal has not changed in the recently released remake, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2, from developer Vicarious Visions, renowned for their previous work on the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. Like the previous titles, the customizable Special Tricks are integral to quickly inflating one’s score, which can mean the difference between victory and defeat in the online multiplayer suite....

The introduction of the Xbox One X before the Xbox Series X was potentially controversial. The nomenclature alone was confusing for the average gamer. At the end of the day, people looked at the Xbox One’s games. It filled genres that were mostly ignored on other platforms. With open-world racing games like Forza Horizon, the system flourished in the market. Open-world games are part of a subgenre that is becoming ubiquitous....

The newest installment in the Monster Hunter series is called Monster Hunter Rise, and it is exclusively being released on the Nintendo Switch. It will be available for purchase on March 26, 2021, which is just around the corner, but also feels like a lifetime away. Fans are interested to know what will be new with this game, as well as what they are bringing over from the previous games in the franchise....

Vanilla Minecraft is a great game and an experience that can keep anyone busy for hours. However, with the abundance of mods and modpacks that talented creators have made for Mojang’s sandbox survival game, it’s only natural to get sucked into the wondrous world of Minecraft mods. There are just about as many mods as there are ways to enjoy vanilla Minecraft. Some introduce brand new fantasy RPG features like creatures, spells, and potions, while others take the game into the future, with brand-new blocks and resources to make even the craziest of creations....

Theme park Super Nintendo World opened last month at Universal Studios Japan, to enormous excitement. Although U.S. fans were saddened to learn the Floridian version will now be pushed back to 2025, the Osaka version has given fans a sneak peek of what they can expect to see. Those venturing to Super Nintendo World are riding Mario Kart vehicles (a surprisingly elaborate take on Mario Kart it is too), dining in the exclusive onsite restaurants and immersing themselves in all the Mushroom Kingdom has to offer....
