Owning and running your own island empire is a pretty complex gig, especially when you're doing it with your favorite Co-Presidente. As such, Tropico 6's publisher, Kalypso Media, has announced that the game's release date has been pushed back to March 29th of this year in order to ensure everything is in tip-top shape when it finds its way to the general public.
There are fun and easy-going co-op games, there are challenging co-op games, and then there are truly brutal co-op games that strain you and your party. Sundered makes it very clear from your very first moments in your very first life that you are going to take a beating. You and your teammates will die early and often, but if you can endure, then ...
While the latest content drop for Destiny 2 hit last month, our usual crew had fallen behind with the Power Level requirements to check out the what was new/different with "Black Armory." Now that we've all spent some time getting those weekly powerful engrams, we decided to hop in and show what Destiny 2 is looking like these days.
Battlefield V launched back in November 2018 with only a couple of the gameplay modes that were initially discussed/revealed with the latest entry in the Battlefield franchise. One of the modes that was missing was the cooperative "Combined Arms," which would let you team up with three friends to complete a mission. DICE finally announced a few days ago that that mode will finally be coming to the game as part of the "Lightning Strikes" content sometime next month.
Looking forward to playing Anthem next month but worried that you won't have enough friends to tackle some of the harder content? Then there's some (potentially) good news! Ben Irving, Lead Producer on the game, confirmed a few days ago that matchmaking will be supported for "every activity in the game."
On Saturday, Treyarch took to Reddit to reveal its plans to celebrate the special day that is January 15 (1/15 -> element 115 the thing what made all dem zambies). Starting right about now, you can earn double character XP, double weapon XP, and double Nebulium Plasma (used to make helpful one-time use elixirs) in the Zombies mode for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. But that's not all.
Last week, Robot Entertainment announced that their free-to-play third-person action/tower defense-ish game, Orcs Must Die! Unchained, will be coming to an end this April. Sadly, it sounds like this attempt to shift the popular franchise to the "games as a service" model didn't pan out for the Texas-based developer.
CES 2019 is officially underway and amidst all the tech announcements of newer TVs, new fridges with TVs, and (I'm guessing here) washer/dryers with TVs, there's a bit of gaming news, too. BioWare's third-person RPG shooter, Anthem, is coming out at the end of February, but before that you'll be able to check it out yourself during an "Open Demo" period at the beginning of February.
The Killing Floor 2: Season’s Beatings bundle is available until January 18th, bringing elves, bad Santa's, weapons and maps all down your chimney for another couple weeks. Also, Gary Busey appears to do voice work as Santa, meaning this may just be the best Christmas gift anyone has ever recieved - ever. If you don’t believe in Santa, that’s ok; Gary Busey also voices the Trader on Santa’s Workshop Map, so you will still be able to enjoy the gift of Gary.
The latest game in the “toys to life” genre twists the formula: the toys aren’t required at all! Starlink: Battle for Atlas gives gamers the choice to play digital only, or with the (admittedly) very nice toys. Underneath the shiny ships, weapons, and pilots, there’s a very fun open world exploration game to be found. Starli...
JoyMasher's upcoming side-scrolling shooter, Blazing Chrome, looks to be all-set to scratch that Contra itch you've got (sorry, no cream for that). The latest gameplay trailer shows off most of one of the title's levels and watching this thing in action really makes me eager to get my hands on it "sometime 2019."
The long-running Earth Defense Force series is well-loved (by those in the know) for its low-budget sci-fi thrills and amazingly addictive co-op gameplay. Heck, I even played an Xbox 360 entry with this site's founder as an initiation way back in 2011. Though the series has since become exclusive to PlayStation and PC, it continues to deli...
The Capcom team certainly has been busy this past year with regular content updates and events for Monster Hunter: World, and that will be continuing into the new year.
