Warhammer 40 000 Darktide S Latest Gameplay Trailer Makes The Wait Even Harder

Darktide is a co-op shooter/melee action hybrid, made by the same people behind the excellent Vermintide series. The developer is leaving fantasy Warhammer behind for now, and switching to the grim dark future of Warhammer 40,000. The two-minute gameplay trailer highlights a mission playthrough where Heretics sabotaged Tertium’s power system, and it is up to the four heroes to save the day. Beyond that, this looks to be a continuation of Vermintide pretty much everywhere, though with a bigger emphasis on gunplay this time around, thanks to the setting....

Warzone 2 Uber Drivers May Be Pulling Up To An Al Mazrah Street Near You

Examples include Reddit user Crescendummain, who posted one of their journeys on the Warzone Reddit earlier today. In their video (which has some harsh language in it, before you go and watch it), you can see a full squad of four jump on top of their buggy as they stick to the roads, ensure their companions stay safe, and make it to their destination in good time. This is all thanks to the new proximity voice chat feature in Warzone 2, which has allowed players who aren’t in the same squad to communicate with each other....

Watch An Exoprimal Team Take Control Of A Dinosaur And Invade The Other Team In Extended Gameplay

The video is nearly 16-minutes long, and shows a full match of Dino Survival, the main mode of the game where two teams of five compete to kill dinosaurs and achieve objectives as fast as possible. Although the video is sadly limited to just 1080p-60fps, it offers a much better look at the mechanics and the flow of the match. One of the main points of criticism the game faced actually has less to do with the content, and more to do with the video capture itself....

Watch This Unsettling Trailer For Dap A Weird Horror Game

Daps are vulnerable, odd little creatures that inhabit a hostile world in which nearly everything is trying to kill them. In Dap, you start off as a single eponymous dap, quickly learning that you need to navigate through the creepy, imposing undergrowth to find other daps. There’s strength in numbers, after all. Similarly to Oddworld’s Mudokons, you can instruct other daps that join your swarm to wait and follow, and you’ll need to think carefully about how you command them if you want to get through the game’s sadistic and terrifying world....

What Rhino S Mocap Actor Had To Do In Spider Man To Sell His Heft

Noshir Dalal is a master of motion capture in games. The actor is behind more characters than you’d think, even if he’s more famously known for his voiced work, like Charles Smith in Red Dead Redemption 2, and the protagonist in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Anyone who played Insomniac’s Spider-Man will remember the various moments that involved Rhino. In Spider-Man, this particular Rhino wears a suit that enhances his power, making him move and fight like a rhinoceros....

What The Witcher 3 Tells Us About Putin S Ww2 Dispute

As the game begins, Velen has been churned up by two armies: the forces of the Northern Kingdoms, and those of the Nilfgaardian Empire, who have fought each other to a standstill. Velen’s former state, Temeria, has ceased to be. The country isn’t governed so much as victimised: the man who occupies the castle on the hill calls himself the Bloody Baron, and is just another bandit preying on an unprotected people....

Why Are Modders Restoring The Look And Feel Of Cyberpunk 2018

In the years before Cyberpunk’s release, would-be players subsisted on a similar sense of promise. Until CD Projekt Red’s ambitious eight-year bet came to fruition, it existed for fans as pure potential - a mental space where, guided by trailers, they could let their dreams run wild. A technologically-advanced future setting, plus a premise that appeared to marry GTA’s freeform chaos to The Witcher’s branching RPG choices, proved potent fuel for the imagination....

Why Some Of The Team Behind Dead Space Are Returning To Sci Fi Horror With The Callisto Protocol

The Callisto Protocol isn’t the game that many of us were expecting from Striking Distance, but it’s not exactly a surprise. The studio was founded last year by Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds maker PUBG Corp with Visceral and Sledgehammer vet Glen Schofield at the helm. The outfit said that it was working on an “original narrative experience” set in the same world as the company’s battle royale hit. So it was a bit of a shock when the trailer for its debut project – sci-fi survival horror project The Callisto Protocol – rolled at The Game Awards....

Why Wait For Another Fire Emblem When You Can Play Shining Force Instead

Debuting on the Mega Drive/Genesis, the series was created by first-party studio Sonic! Software Planning (who is often credited as Team Sonic – not at all confusing for Sonic Team), a company which later split from Sega and rebranded as Camelot. Yep, that’s right; the same studio behind the Golden Sun series. Back when my knowledge of role-playing games was extremely limited and I was only playing because of the draw I felt to elves, centaur knights, and other fantasy tropes, Shining Force was essentially my introduction to the RPG genre – and to the idea of games being much longer form than the quick arcade thrills of Sonic or Streets of Rage that I was used to....

Wordle Has Turned Me Into A Crossword Lover

It even drew me into the vast world of Wordle spinoffs! Hours upon hours were dropped into the growing genre of brain-busting games that tested my knowledge of geography, mathmatic equations, Pokemon, and professional cyclists. Never before had my brain felt so smooth and bumpless. While there was a lot of short-term enjoyment from these lovely alternatives, the classic Wordle pulled me back like I was Michael Corleone, almost free from the damn thing....

Xbox And Bethesda Games Showcase Dated For June 12 Ignoring Fact E3 Is Cancelled

Announced over on the Xbox blog, the event kicks off at 6pm BST/ 7pm CEST on June 12, so pretty much the same time it would have had E3 not died a slow death. “This show will feature amazing titles coming from Xbox Game Studios, Bethesda, and our partners around the world,” reads the blog post. The post then just kind of repeats that same sentence, but it does make a point of all the ways you can stream it, including the fact it will be available in over 30 languages....

Xbox Doesn T Want Anything To Do With Exploitative Nfts Says Phil Spencer

Speaking to Stephen Totilo for Axios, Spencer noted that he is wary of the increasingly fevered way the industry is approaching NFT integration, suggesting that – unlike Ubisoft, for example – Microsoft won’t be chasing this gimmick any time soon. “What I’d say today on NFT, all up, is I think there’s a lot of speculation and experimentation that’s happening, and that some of the creative that I see today feels more exploitive than about entertainment,” Spencer said....

Xbox Game Pass Is Great But Where Are All The Classic First Party Games Microsoft

One of the greatest elements of Xbox Game Pass is that the first-party games are, broadly speaking, there to stay. They crop up on launch day and are there forever. Third-party titles come and go, but you always know those Xbox Game Studios titles will be there. That adds a lot of value to the subscription, and if you want a hot new first-party game, in money terms it probably makes more sense to pick up or extend a Game Pass Ultimate sub than to actually buy a copy of that single game....
