With the recent release of the new Ratchet and Clank remaster, Game Rant takes a look at some of the best video game remasters and remakes that have come out in recent years. As good as some games were in their original incarnations, there is always room for improvement. Beyond updating classic games with aesthetically-pleasing graphics, remasters and remakes generally fix any outstanding flaws, and occasionally add some new content for good measure....

Tamriel is home to some of the most stunning environments in the history of gaming, and Elder Scrolls Online is no exception. Throughout the years the game has existed, many new DLCs and expansions have come out for the game expanding even further on its wide variety of environments. There are so many zones at this point that it can be hard to decide on the best ones. There are many zones that will leave players in awe when they take a screenshot at the very right spot....

Minecraft Dungeons represents the biggest departure from what made the original game so popular. This new game features those same chunky, voxel graphics, but aside from that, it’s got nothing to do with Minecraft. Still, it’s a solid dungeon crawler regardless, with a good amount of depth and variety. One way Minecraft Dungeons introduces this variety is with a huge arsenal of weapons. Swords, staffs, bows, and daggers represent only a tiny fraction of the weapons that can be found along the way....

I’m tired of wailings about games shown during the E3 2021 season. It’s almost like we’re still dealing with a dangerous pandemic and teams adapting to new remote setups, but anyway, that’s beyond the point. I’m not here to wag my finger at you for being upset about Bayonetta 3’s absence or whatever it may be. What I do want to say, though, is that there’s plenty to dig into if you’re not sure what to do with your triple-A games budget this year, you just need to look at the indies....

Warning: contains minor spoilers about events covered inThe Crown Season 5 Season Five of The Crown is arguably the most sordid season of this historical drama so far, focusing heavily on the royal family’s messy marital breakdowns. Unsurprisingly, this involves a detailed depiction of Princess Diana’s infamous Martin Bashir interview on Panorama in November 1995, but this has led to the show skipping over a truly bonkers royal moment that is well worth revisiting....

A new gameplay video feature from IGN shows a late game mission from Tom Clancy’s The Division that features level 25 enemies and a variety of tactics on display. Any gamer will tell you that a MMO-like experience is only as good as its end game. If a title can keep players interested long after they’ve finished the basic missions, then it has less of a chance to succeed. Tom Clancy’s The Division hopes to keep players invested in its experience by using increased difficulty modifiers, as well as some potential raid-like events....

A YouTube user discovers a number of secret Easter eggs that have been hidden in Tom Clancy’s The Division, all of which are related to Ubisoft’s other new IP’s. Tom Clancy’s The Division has only been out for a day, and aside from some PC server issues, it appears that the game has been met with an overwhelming response from gamers everywhere. From some very impressive early achievements, such as hitting the level cap just 15 hours in, to some incredibly passive aggressive trolling, such as the presence of ‘griefers’, it definitely appears that The Division has struck a chord with everyone....

Although Tom Clancy’s The Division is finally out on the market, most know it is still a work in progress. As with any online-focused game, there is no way a developer can account for all of the many happenings within a game until it’s actually in the hands of the players. That’s why patches, like tomorrow’s big one, are so important to keeping the experience viable. However, while The Division players are presumably happy to see patches so soon, Ubisoft unfortunately has some bad news....

Women have long been under-represented in the gaming community, but that’s slowly changing, especially on platforms such as Twitch and YouTube. More and more women are becoming programmers, designers, content creators and streamers. Although there’s still a long way to go, we’ve made great strides in recent years. As the rise of female stars continues, it’s becoming ever more apparent that not all those in the industry are held to the same standards....

The Blackwood Chapter is set to expand The Elder Scrolls Online universe later this June. Ahead of its arrival, Zenimax Online Studios held a press preview event, giving us a chance to go hands-on with the highly anticipated chapter. Beyond the usual addition of new questlines, locations, and characters, Blackwood also comes with an innovative new Companion system – one that fits perfectly with the casual gameplay framework it works hard to cultivate....

Catching a Pokemon can be easy, can be though, depending on which Pokemon you are trying to catch. While for catching Weedle or Caterpie, patience, skill, and luck aren’t exactly the things that you will need to obtain them, the situation with more powerful and especially legendary Pokemon is different. That can be seen in their catch rate; for example, the two previous examples have a catch rate of 255, the same as similar level Pokemon such as Poliwag and Zubat....

I haven’t thought much about Gears 5 since September. I played casually with a friend and nearly stopped playing it in Act Three. Overall I did enjoy Gears 5, but it’s a bloated game with some pretty aggravating pacing issues even at just under 11 hours to complete. I’ve never been too interested in Gears’ PvP modes, so with the campaign completed I uninstalled the game and expected to never look back....

The Legend of Zelda is one of the only game franchises out there that can continually star characters who look, sound, and act the same without them technically being the same characters (with a few exceptions). Aside from superficial similarities, timeless character roles, and Link’s general refusal to speak, the Links and Zeldas of the Legend of Zelda franchise share little in common, including their ages. It’s no secret that some Links and Zeldas are older than others....

While it may have had some issues even when it was first released, The Force Unleashed games went a long way in re-invigorating interest in the Star Wars franchise following the luke-warm reception of the prequel trilogy. Following Galen Marek, also known as Starkiller, in between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope, both hardcore and casual Star Wars fans alike found something to love with both titles. Gamers have had a chance to play as powerful wielders of the Force before, but Starkiller turned all of these powers up to 11 and was capable of decimating armies of clone soldiers and Jedi alike with little trouble through the use of both Jedi and Sith powers....

Set up in the first half of the Sequel Trilogy as a powerful new Star Wars villain, Supreme Leader Snoke of the First Order turned out to be something else entirely. Despite fulfilling the role of Emperor Palpatine in The Force Awakens, he’s completely off the table by the end of The Last Jedi. And in The Rise of Skywalker, the galaxy is only big enough for one galaxy-conquering villain as Kylo Ren’s fall shows....

This Star Wars article contains spoilers for War of the Bounty Hunters. Star Wars: War of the Bounty Hunters kicked off last month with the untold story of Boba Fett’s journey back to Jabba’s Palace after the events of The Empire Strikes Back. Han Solo is still frozen in carbonite on the Slave I, but when the carbonite matrix becomes unstable (which could turn our beloved smuggler into “goo”), Fett is forced to make an emergency stop to Nar Shaddaa, the infamous “Smuggler’s Moon” located smack in the middle of Hutt space....

After responding to fans on Twitter last week about new content for Star Wars Battlefront 2, the game’s development team answered more questions on the official forums. These responses confirmed content it is currently working on, including Clone Wars DLC and player customization options. On the Star Wars Battlefront 2 forums, a fan asked, “1. Are we getting conquest? 2. Any news on more customization (personally I would love it if you would make it more that just having a skin....

With Star Wars Battlefront 2’s multiplayer beta set to start relatively soon, the developer DICE and publisher Electronic Arts have decided to tease out a few more of the details that will be involved during the testing period in a bid to promote the game to those unaware of its impending arrival, and to further entice existing fans to join in during the trial run. In order to do so, the companies have now officially released a trailer for the forthcoming beta....

TIE Interceptors have been a significant ship in both the Imperial and First Order fleets, providing a much-needed increase to speed over the standard TIE Fighter. They are fast and brutal, acting as the Imperial counterpart to the Republic’s A-Wing. However, this can make them hard to handle for newcomers to the game. With more players jumping into Star Wars: Squadrons since it came to Xbox Game Pass, it’s time to look at the best loadouts that will make you better with the TIE Interceptor....
