This Star Wars: The Bad Batch article contains spoilers. The newest Star Wars hero is a bit of a mystery. Omega, a young clone who joins the titular heroes in The Bad Batch, is a mix of audience surrogate and riddle. She’s eager to join the fight, and has some skills of her own, but she’s obviously not cut from the exact same cloth as the other clones. That serves her well as she escapes Order 66 from the clones’ side, with her and the Batch some of the few residents of Kamino who don’t go all-in on the Empire’s slaughter....

It’s an overwhelming time for Star Wars fans, and unfortunately, some new less-than-happy news has been added to the fray. Voice actor Tom Kane, well-known as a mainstay in the Clone Wars animated series as well as other Star Wars projects, recently suffered a stroke, leaving him unable to speak. The news broke on Kane’s official Facebook page, where his daughter Sam gave fans an update on why he’d apparently been out of the spotlight for a while....

A farmer in Stardew Valley needs a good set of tools to get things done around the farm and around town. Luckily, you have a wide arsenal of different tools at your disposal, most of which can be upgraded to increase how efficient and powerful they are. You’ll start the game with only a small set, but you’ll acquire more over time and upgrade many of them in different ways....

Steam has dominated the PC market for quite some time now, holding a near monopoly over the entirety of PC game sales. For a long time, it seemed like the giant was untouchable, but with the rise of other sites like Good Old Games, that may be changing. After all, the service’s user count has dropped by 17% since January. There are a few different reasons that could amount to the lower user numbers of the past few months....

Season 6 for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare kicked off earlier this week and while fans now have access to all sorts of brand new content, the update also added numerous bugs back into the online experience. While Infinity Ward has managed to fix a number of lingering issues in addition to banning nearly 20,000 cheaters, players have been facing off with new exploits tied to the subway system and other bugs impacting the popular game mode....

It will soon be time to return to the dungeons of Saviors of Sapphire Wings, with plenty more to do than ever before. A new gameplay trailer for Stranger of Sword City Revisited reveals all of the new battle elements and dungeons that players can expect when the games release as a bundle on March 16, 2021. Stranger of Sword City is a dungeon crawler RPG that was originally released on Xbox 360 in 2014....

PointCrow, a medium-sized Twitch streamer, successfully took on the challenge of beating The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – without walking. The absolute madman cleared the entire game without so much as taking a single step forward, instead opting to travel by using a series of jumps, slides, and glides. Despite taking many hours to accomplish the feat, he trimmed the adventure down into a neat YouTube video. Seeing Link awkwardly hop across the battlefield towards opponents was a spectacle in itself; Menial tasks were rendered frustrating and time-consuming....

I’m a huge fan of Apex Legends. I picked it up the day it launched, as many did since it’s free-to-play, and I’ve been playing it regularly ever since, buying up battle passes and screaming at Ranked leagues late into the night. It’s a game I’ve played with my boss, with my online friends, with my real-life friends, and my most common Apex partner - my girlfriend, who wouldn’t usually play a battle royale game at all....

It’s no secret Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury has been a resounding success for Nintendo, quickly climbing up the sales charts to become 2021’s best-selling game less than a month after its release. For that reason, it’s no wonder Nintendo would try to seize that momentum by bringing 3D World + Bowser’s Fury to Tetris 99. The tetromino battle royale has turned into one of Nintendo Switch Online’s most convincing selling points, with Tetris 99 even serving as a showcase for many of Nintendo’s first-party exclusives....

This Teen Wolf: The Movie review contains no spoilers. Riddle me this: Is a Teen Wolf still a Teen Wolf when he becomes a full-grown “Man Wolf”? That’s essentially the premise of Teen Wolf‘s comeback movie which brings Tyler Posey’s Scott McCall back on our screens for the first time since 2017. Now in his mid-thirties, our not-so-Teen Wolf is still the Alpha, but Beacon Hills is no longer the place it once was....

15-year-old FIFA prodigy Anders Vejrgang has been one of the biggest up-and-coming names in the soccer franchise’s esports world for quite a while now, with his biggest accomplishment being his undefeated streak on FIFA’s Ultimate Team mode. Hanging with some of the annual sports title’s best players, Vejrgang wracked up a jaw-dropping 536 wins in a row, dominating the mode’s notoriously tough Weekend League. Last Sunday, the talented FIFA 21 player’s streak was finally broken when he went head to head with Danish player Damesheets, who managed to get a shock victory over his opponent, winning 5 - 1....

While many gaming publishers and developers have been experiencing setbacks during the COVID-19 pandemic, it appears as though this doesn’t necessarily apply across the board. In specific, Tencent, the umbrella company presiding over a number of popular gaming properties, happens to be doing quite well in spite of the unfortunate circumstances. Tencent, which presides over companies like Riot Games, released its Q1 2020 earnings results, and it turns out that, despite the circumstances, the company is performing quite well....

San Diego Comic-Con is off to a great start with the first panel giving fans a sneak peek at what lies ahead in the upcoming film Terminator: Dark Fate, including the return of Eddie Furlong in the reprisal of his role of John Connor. This means that for the first time since the release of Terminator 2: Judgement day, our three main protagonists are back together for the next chapter in the dark saga....

With the console release of Terraria 1.4 hopefully just around the corner, here’s a closer look at the best Magic/Mage build available in the newest version of Terraria. The Mage build relies on high mana or max mana regeneration, a wide array of different weapons and accessories, and a playstyle that turns your character into a glass cannon. Getting access to the best mage items is more likely after defeating the Wall of Flesh, but there are still some interesting approaches to take with a mage build Pre-Hardmode....

The Psychic-type has been a polarizing one in Pokemon. There was a time when it was unquestionably the best type in the game: in Generation I where it had a few more matchups in its favor than it does today. Since then with every subsequent nerf, the Psychic type’s value has diminished. It hurt especially for Pokemon that don’t carry any other type as defensively, the Psychic-type by itself has three weaknesses and two resistances including itself which is not great....

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is one of the most successful AAA RPGs for a multitude of excellent reasons. Two of the biggest draws are that the characters are so well-drawn that they feel almost real, and the game has the ability to just make you feel things. The world of the Witcher 3 is not usually a place where you feel nice things. There are a great many things that inspire horror across the war-ravaged Continent, and an equal measure of heartbreak to be found....

It’s always the cool-looking weapons in the Final Fantasy series that get all the love, especially when it comes to standouts like Cloud’s Buster Sword, Barret’s Gatling Gun, and even Aerith’s staff weapons. However, while the armor pieces may not be not as flashy, they have just as much importance on the battlefield as the weapons in Final Fantasy VII Remake. As one would expect from armor, selecting the correct pieces to keep that party protected and knowing their strengths and weaknesses will go a long way in deciding the outcome of the fight....

The adventure genre, particularly the third-person action-adventure sub-genre, has fired its way to the forefront of the gaming industry in recent years. This is best exemplified by the PlayStation 4’s highest-selling games, as nine of the console’s top ten best-sellers were third-person action-adventures. The trend hasn’t shown signs of slowing down in 2020, as Metacritic’s list of highest-rated games is filled with excellent adventure titles. The genre has shown its worth this year in particular, as lockdown restrictions have made the idea of venturing off to fictional locations all the more appealing....

Where most racing games prefer to focus on the concrete as its road, Dirt 5 chooses the unpredictability of off-road rallycross racing with a focus on rally car racing. The game, after releasing after some delays, obviously offers a variety of different cars to try and drive around across varying categories. From modern rally cars to classic ones, the game has an abundance of licensed cars for one to take down the competition....
