Impressions: Pagan Online is a fun hack-and-slash tarnished by endless hero grinding

Wargaming’s new action-RPG Pagan Online is up on early access and I managed to get some time with it. It gave me heavy Warframe vibes with all the looting and grinding for new heroes, mixed in with some Diablo-like hack-and-slash gameplay. The core gameplay loop worked for me but only up ...

Code Vein - Preview 01

Preview: Code Vein may not wow, but there’s plenty going for it to keep players interested

Anime Souls. That’s my mental shorthand for Bandai Namco’s Code Vein, the upcoming action-RPG that takes more than a few cues from FromSoftware’s cult series. It was announced when the general public was starting to tire of Souls-likes, but a “polishing delay” has seen it pushed beyond its planned ...

Battlefield V: Firestorm

Impressions – The slow burn of Battlefield V: Firestorm

With how explosively popular the battle royale genre has become, it is hardly surprising that Battlefield V would take this opportunity to cash in on this latest craze with their very own mode: Firestorm.

PUBG Mobile x Resident Evil 2 is a thing now and we took it for a spin

Thought you were free from Mr. X outside of Resident Evil 2? Well, think again, rookie. Capcom’s trench-coated Tyrant has stomped his way into PUBG Mobile for a limited-time event, ensuring that no platform is safe when X wants to give it to you. The Zombie: Survive Till Dawn ...

The Division 2 - 190204 Abraham Lincoln Statue

Preview: The Division 2 shows that plenty has changed since The Dollar Flu

Every gaming franchise has an inherently unique “feel” about it, and Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 is no exception. Trudging through the recreated streets of Washington DC, I settled into a cover-shoot-loot cycle that felt warmly familiar. The environment has changed, the components have shifted, the gadgets updated; but ...

Far Cry New Dawn - Preview 01

Preview: Far Cry New Dawn better be saving its best moments for later

The island seemed familiar. My Ubisoft handler suggested I check out the spot before our hands-on session wrapped up, and with 30 minutes left on the clock I figured why not. I had just acquired the Saw Launcher and probably had enough ammo for whatever awaited me, so I ...

Red Dead Online - Beta Impressions 01

Impressions: Too little money and too many griefers in Red Dead Online beta

Red Dead Online is finally here… sort of. It’s now playable by all Red Dead Redemption 2 owners, but it’s in beta which means there are balance and gameplay issues galore. While the main game focuses on the Van Der Linde gang (our review here), Red Dead Online follows its own ...
