A handful of animated gifs have been shared by Bethesda taken from The Evil Within 2’s E3 2017 behind-closed-doors gameplay demos. The four gifs offer a small peek at the three locations shown from The Evil Within 2. For some, these gifs may tantalize, but for others, they might just make the wait for new information all the more frustrating. The Evil Within 2 section of Bethesda’s booth at E3 2017 was based on a sort of Haunted House, where attendees would walk through or a section filled with several monitors showing different Evil Within 2 gameplay clips....

It’s been a tough year for Ubisoft, but it’s preparing to make a comeback very soon with Ubisoft Forward. On July 12, the publisher will show off its best upcoming games for the upcoming 2020-2021 fiscal year. In the past fiscal year, Ubisoft’s seen a few releases that have been self-described as “commercial failures,” like The Division 2 and Ghost Recon: Breakpoint. With controversy ranging from lack of content to a heavy reliance on microtransactions, Ubisoft is focused on the year ahead with its upcoming releases....

Ever since the first official announcement involving The King of Fighters 15 a month ago, character trailer reveals have been an ongoing routine from SNK. As fans continue to speculate who will make its appearance in the game or if their favorites will make the cut, several impressive trailers show what fans can expect as The King of Fighters 15 releases later this year. The first character trailer, three weeks ago, announced Shun’ei, the central protagonist of The King of Fighters 14....

Gamers are gearing up for the release of The Last Of Us Part 2 after four years of anticipation. The original game was renowned for its emotional storytelling and deep characters. Joel and Ellie were the leads but many of the side characters stood out as well. Every character dealt with the apocalypse in different ways and they had varying perspectives in regard to the main characters. The Last Of Us explores how different people respond to trauma and live in a decaying world....

When The Last of Us was first released in 2013 on the PlayStation 3 it quickly cemented itself as one of the best looking games of a generation. In addition to its visuals, which still hold up today, thanks to its PlayStation 4 port, which released a year later, it was one of the best narratively-driven games on the consoles. It served as the perfect swansong for the PlayStation 3 and would still hold up as a singular game without the need for a sequel....

Jeremy Yates, the lead animator on The Last of Us Part II, recently posted a video showcasing the motion capture used on horses throughout the game. With a much larger world to explore, players will find themselves on horses multiple times in The Last of Us Part II and knowing the creatives had real-life inspirations makes the gameplay all the more realistic. The footage shows off both an actor and a horse decked out in motion capture gear getting ready to jump a hurdle....

Less than 24 hours before Xbox Series X and Series S pre-orders were set to go live around the world, Xbox made an announcement that has caught everyone in the world of gaming completely off guard. Microsoft has acquired ZeniMax Media, the parent company of the developer famous for its work on The Elder Scrolls and Fallout, Bethesda, for $7.5 billion. Along with Bethesda, Microsoft gained several other new studios as part of this deal as well, such as id Software, MachineGames, Arkane, Tango Gameworks, and ZeniMax Online Studios, just to name a few....

Stalker 2: Heart of Chernobyl devs revealed a bunch of new details about the project, highlighting your loneliness in the Exclusion Zone. The team said at GSC Game World that there will be no squadmates in the upcoming FPS, and players won’t be able to get an animal companion, either. Many modern open-world shooters allow the players to team up with their friends in co-op to bring havoc to the enemies together, or at least to take NPCs for certain missions....

Releasing earlier this month, Xbox is already giving away four games through its Games with Gold service, allowing players to claim Little Nightmares, Dead Rising, The King of Fighters XIII, and Breakdown. Yet, it seems Microsoft wasn’t done offering some games for subscribers to play at no additional cost, with the company now announcing it’ll be offering players the option to jump into three games for free over this coming weekend....

Welp, it’s been in the wind for a while but Gina Carano finally posted enough nonsense online for Lucasfilm to categorically state that it has no plans to work with her in the future and that her views are “abhorrent and unacceptable,” so it looks like we’ve seen the last of former Rebel shock trooper Cara Dune in Disney+’s hugely popular Star Wars series, The Mandalorian. “Gina Carano is not currently employed by Lucasfilm and there are no plans for her to be in the future,” said Lucasfilm in a statement....

This Star Wars: The Mandalorian article contains spoilers. In “The Rescue,” one major cameo takes The Mandalorian season 2 finale home. Din and his friends have discovered where Moff Gideon has taken Grogu, and it doesn’t take them long to launch an attack on his flagship. Once there, the finale delivers on all the blasting, darksaber fights, and surprise cameos you could want, playing coy only with Grogu himself. “The Rescue,” directed by Peyton Reed and written by showrunner Jon Favreau, has a couple major Star Wars connections and not as many little Easter eggs....

Stardew Valley is a genuine indie success story. Created by one person and launching in 2016, Stardew Valley grew until it sold 10 million copies, and continues to find success today. As beloved as the original is, there could be more on the way. Eric Barone, the game’s creator, is leaving the door open to a Stardew Valley 2. Barone is hard at work on update 1.5 for Stardew Valley. While talking with Game Informer about the game, Barone mentioned that isn’t he ready to announce update 1....

Later this year, fans of the Assassin’s Creed franchise will be rewarded with another yearly installment in the incredibly successful series. Ubisoft’s crown jewel will be sticking it to The Crown this time around by embracing the pirate’s life and raising that iconic black flag, but there’s a lot more than naval battles and plundering in Assassin’s Creed IV than the game’s developer has led on thus far. In fact, there are a ton of new stealth mechanics that will come in handy for those skulking around the likes of enemy bases....

Debuting earlier this month, Little Nightmares 2 has already been a massive success for Tarsier Studios, amassing great reviews and being hailed as a worthy follow-up to its cult-classic predecessor. Naturally, with the game managing to strike such a chord with players, fan speculation about a third entry has run rampant, however, it seems a return to Little Nightmares isn’t currently on the cards for Tarsier. As detailed via the studio’s parent company, Embracer Group, in a Q3 earnings report webcast, Tarsier will be moving on to work on new IPs in the future, with the company’s CEO Lars Wingefors claiming “that was the main reason we made this acquisition....

In 2015, YouTuber and Team Fortress 2 player Sketchek was known as one of the game’s most skilled Pyro mains. He revealed to his audience that he had a terminal illness, which he never specified, and then stopped uploading content to his YouTube channel and disappeared from the Internet entirely. As Sketchek expected, many assumed that he had died, but he has since resurfaced on YouTube, revealing that he faked his death and illness....
