[ad_1] That’s a long time to wait for a game that was first unveiled in 2017. This latest delay might be easier to understand than the last, however. Ubisoft’s main competitor, Sea of Thieves, struggled in part because there wasn’t much to do at first — it took months of updates before the game had […]

‘World of Warcraft Classic’ debuts on August 26th
[ad_1] As expected, the game is a touched-up version of the original massively multiplayer game in its most refined form, around the “Drums of War” update from August 2006. That means no world-altering expansions or other major game mechanics that have appeared since then. While you’ll lose some of the creature comforts of the up-to-date […]
Soulstorm’ trailer takes us right back to Abe’s world
[ad_1] The series has had five instalments planned since the ’90s, but its ambition was ahead of its time in terms of what games could technically achieve back then. Now that it’s being remade in Unity, fans’ expectations are well and truly raised, thanks in no small part to the glorious new graphics: Admittedly, it’s […]
Netflix has plans for E3 beyond its ‘Stranger Things’ game
[ad_1] Netflix’s NX Twitter account, which covers all things supernatural and sci-fi, kicked off the conversation by asking E3’s account if it could get an invite to the show. When E3 responded positively, Netflix revealed it has “some gaming news in the works,” and the two companies announced a panel called Bringing Your Favorite Shows […]
Crowdfunded ‘Outer Wilds’ drops Steam for Epic Store exclusivity
[ad_1] Not surprisingly, some backers are upset. The timed exclusive has been likened to a “bait and switch” or even false advertising — players expected a Steam release and now won’t get it until months later at best. Some have said they’ll seek refunds, while others are more concerned about the implications of releasing the […]
‘Rage 2’ will receive at least two paid add-ons after launch
[ad_1] Thankfully, you won’t have to pay extra to get something. Weapon skins, world events, challenges and new rides (the Mech you see above, plus the One-Wheeler) are all slated to be available throughout 2019. You’ll have a reason to keep playing even if you blaze through main story, then. The question is whether or […]
‘Ghost Recon Breakpoint’ pits you against killer drones
[ad_1] As with Ghost Recon Wildlands, Breakpoint is an open-world game. You’ll get to explore 11 biomes on Auroa including mountains, fjords, the jungle and futuristic cities, while you can engage in battle via land, sea and air. You might slip and fall down slopes, or be slowed down by water or snow, so you’ll […]
‘Apex Legends’ is coming to mobile devices
[ad_1] The game will also come to China, echoing another Epic strategy. EA might need the expansion. It revealed that its year-over-year profits dipped sharply in the first quarter of 2019 despite Apex‘s debut. That’s not completely surprising. While EA’s other big game of the season (Anthem) did sell well early on, it didn’t really […]
Microsoft teases ‘Minecraft’ AR for your phone
[ad_1] Microsoft has something big in store for Minecraft fans. The company used the start of Build 2019 to offer a teaser for an augmented reality Minecraft experience for phones. The clip doesn’t say much about what the experience entails, although it’s safe to say you won’t be building entire virtual worlds in your neighborhood […]
Apple’s first iPhone game in over a decade stars Warren Buffett
[ad_1] The title is credited to “Wildlife Designs” in the App Store, but the splash screen and the game’s terms make it clear that Apple is directly responsible. That makes the app something of a milestone. As MacRumors noted, it’s the first game Apple has released since 2008, when it created an iPhone-friendly version of […]
