Animal Crossing is finally coming to Nintendo Switch in 2019. The recent Nintendo Direct did little more than show the logo and the year, but that’s all it took to give Animal Crossing fans hope. Well, that and revealing adorable dog assistant Isabelle as a fighter for Super Smash Bros. With these two big announcements happening at once, it’s almost as if Nintendo suddenly remembered that Animal Crossing is indeed a franchise that can make money....

We haven’t heard much on Balan Wonderworld, the bizarre action platformer coming from the creators of Sonic the Hedgehog, since its announcement. Unveiled during the Xbox Games Showcase in July, the game is the result of two Sonic creators joining forces once again for a new project. Today, following Nintendo’s latest mini Direct, publisher Square Enix revealed Balan Wonderworld will launch for PC on March 26, 2021.

Minecraft has been around for over ten years, yet enthusiasm for the game remains. As a seemingly timeless sandbox builder that is endlessly flexible and regularly updated, it’s a multi-platform marvel with a wide appeal. Schools have used it for education, families play together to have fun, and talented builders create maps with mini-games galore that you can find on the marketplace. Minecraft is a block-building phenomenon and with that comes a whole host of different merchandise....

Today, Legends of Runeterra fans got something that they have been waiting a long time for. It has been known for a while now that after the most recent region, Shurima, we would be getting one more for the game. This doesn’t mean support for the game is ending — far from it, actually. But as far as new regions go, this next one is the last. The new Beyond the Bandlewood trailer that dropped today gives our first look at this new region, the home of the Yordles....

It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything from publisher THQ Nordic and developer Experiment 101 about their ambitious post-apocalyptic action RPG, Biomutant. Not too long ago, Experiment 101 even tweeted to reassure potential players that the game is still being worked on. To make up for the long silence, fans have now been treated to a lengthy, but most welcome, nine-minute-long Biomutant gameplay trailer. Check out the fur-covered martial artists in action against mutated beasts that would be pretty cute if they weren’t trying to rend you limb from limb....

According to data from Ukie, Borderlands 3 effortlessly eclipsed Gears 5 in the UK retail charts this week (via MCV). Gearbox’s spacey and irreverent RPG overtook The Coalition’s pretty and powerful third-person shooter by quite a ways. The former outperformed the latter by more than four times — that’s including all platforms — and sold 77 per cent more units when comparing just the Xbox One alone. Saddeningly, Gears 5 didn’t hold a candle to the previous entry to the series....

Flinch has been a controversial mechanic in Call of Duty titles, because it causes aim to be thrown off track while taking damage. Effectively, it causes cross-hairs to move upwards when being hit by an enemy player. However, it appears that Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War flinch will differ from the past. Recently, Treyarch revealed the multiplayer for its next title with an explosive trailer that showcased some gameplay....

One thing that Apex Legends has always excelled at is the quality of their skins, allowing players to customize their favorite characters and guns. Some of the most anticipated skins have been the Heirloom skins that up until now have only been available for Wraith and Bloodhound, but according to a dataminer there may be one more set prepared to make the list. When Apex Legends’s first Heirloom set released with a special knife skin for Wraith, along with a banner pose and intro quip, players clamored for the illusive item, some spending up to $500 for a chance at the extremely rare drops....

Some pretty steamy Mirage lore has just been added to the Apex Legends website. It’s his dating profile. Mirage, aka Elliott Witt, is aged 30 and looking for love. At least, that’s what his dating profile seems to say. Or maybe he’s just looking for a good time. Or a pumpkin. Or maybe all three. It’s kinda hard to tell. Respawn has put up general character profiles for all the legends in Apex Legends, but this seems to be the first time where they’ve put up something unique that really adds some flavor to a character....
