Respawn Entertainment’s seasonal updates for Apex Legends always revolve around a new Legend, and season eight is no different. That focus applies to the trailers too, and as Fuse is a bit of a throwback character, so is the season eight gameplay trailer. Expect corny voiceovers and cheesy fire effects in a video you could definitely describe as, rad. It even starts out in a classic aspect ratio too, forgoing the modern nature of widescreen viewing....

Arrow Season 5 Episode 1 Arrow, for lack of a better way to put it, has been in danger of getting lost in the CW superhero shuffle as (sorry) flashier shows continue to come along. There aren’t any dazzling special effects to cover the occasional storytelling difficulty, costumes are relatively low-key, and there are no alternate realities or diverging timelines for the show to explore. The show’s fourth season really suffered as it tried to reestablish some kind of consistent tone of voice in an increasing sea of more colorful and high-powered characters....

This Arrow review contains spoilers. Arrow Season 8 Episode 2 How many times have we heard Oliver say, “there’s always another way”? As the old saying goes, history isn’t exactly repeating, but it does rhyme. In Hong Kong back on Earth 1, the pace is necessarily slower and less jaunty after the devastation at the end of the season premiere, but there’s still plenty of old timey Arrow memories, dizzyingly good close combat, and a flash forward to the Diggle brothers to boot....

Assassin’s Creed: Origins takes place in Egypt and the protagonist is named Bayek, but you already knew that. At Microsoft’s E3 media briefing we got confirmation, though. We did however get our first look at some in-game 4k footage captured on Xbox One X. In the gameplay we saw Ba Yek riding a horse, which is pretty standard, but there’s also a new UI when Yek picked up a weapon that looks quite Destiny-like....

Finally, Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag and Assassin’s Creed Rogue will be released on the Nintendo Switch for the first time as part of the Assassin’s Creed: The Rebel Collection. The games will be preserved in their entirety along with some extra features not seen in the original games. Black Flag was the fourth in the Assassin’s Creed series, released in 2013. It featured all of the amazing parkour players expect from Assassin’s Creed games and added amazing piracy as well....

Earlier today, roughly 30 minutes of fresh Assassin’s Creed Valhalla gameplay footage was leaked online by currently unidentified sources. The leaked video likely comes from the same gameplay footage that Ubisoft planned to reveal during their upcoming digital event on July 12. While there was initially some debate regarding the accuracy and legitimacy of the footage, the fact that Ubisoft has been removing reposts of the video throughout the day wherever they may appear tends to suggest that it is the real deal....

After a long period of radio silence, a cacophony of new information on The Last Guardian has come crashing through the ether. The latest issue of the French magazine PSM3 features an extensive article on the game, including news straight from TLG mastermind Fumito Ueda. Gamersmint has allegedly managed to secure an issue and translate the article, and has gone public with several of the newsworthy points made in the feature....

If you liked Stardew Valley but thought it was a bit too cute and adorable, you just might love Atomicrops. Described as the “chaotic marriage of bullet hell roguelite and farming simulator,” it debuts in early access on the Epic Games Store starting today, and it’s available with a 50 percent launch discount. The premise is similar to Stardew Valley: You’ve just inherited your uncle’s farm. Except that it happens moments before the nuclear apocalypse, and now you’re the last farmer on Earth....

Get ready to hate mankind all over again—or at least hunters—because Bambi is about to have a “live-action” walk through the park. The hardly shocking news confirms that the remake conveyer belt at the Walt Disney Company is alive and well, and that the company’s older library is still being mined, as Bambi was among Walt Disney’s first five features when it opened in 1942. The Hollywood Reporter broke the news Friday, reporting that Geneva Robertson-Dowert and Lindsey Beer were hired to pen the remake for the Mouse House....

The TV landscape is currently preoccupied with something it probably always should have been preoccupied with: money. Prestige cable shows like Billions and Succession have entered the cultural conversation by telling stories about money and the people who make a lot of it. Shows like Lodge 49 and even the Roseanne reboot (which has now transformed into The Conners) examine the economy from a working class perspective. Why is television suddenly interested in the contents of its characters wallets?...

Overwatch 2‘s latest beta has come to an end, and dedicated players have received a bit of a clue on the next hero coming to the game. Fans who were around when Sombra was initially teased will get a bit of déjà vu with a new hint at the upcoming hero. As spotted by Dexerto, when the Overwatch 2 beta went offline on July 19, Blizzard inserted a code for players to check out in the text chat — decoded into a little message that read: “What does the fox say?...

Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, the indie spiritual successor to Jet Set Radio, has been delayed until summer 2023. It was originally intended to release this year. Developer Team Reptile is taking extra time to increase the quality of the game. Watch on YouTube Bomb Rush Cyberfunk - Official Gameplay Trailer “About the release: We are convinced that releasing the game this year will not take it to a level where we would be personally satisfied with,” reads a tweet announcing the delay....

This Brooklyn Nine-Nine review contains spoilers. Brooklyn Nine-Nine Season 6 Episodes 16 & 17 In its two-part season finale, Brooklyn Nine-Nine delivers all of its best, most reliable tricks; there’s an internal fight against police corruption, a wealth of returning supporting characters, a twisty plot, and plenty of rapid-fire jokes. Since the season started with a battle between the Nine-Nine and Commissioner Kelly, it was inevitable that the finale would try to add some sort of resolution to this conflict, but in a wise move, it helped set-up a new fight against a far more worthy adversary for next season....

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was recently released and, unsurprisingly, had a tremendous number of players hopping in over its initial few days on the market. The game is the sequel to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019), which itself is a reboot of the classic Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Up until the launch, developer Infinity Ward revealed more and more about the changes and features of Modern Warfare 2’s multiplayer suite, but there was one mode noticeably absent — Ranked Play....

“Which is better — Call of Duty or Battlefield?” That’s a question everyone has been asking for almost two decades now. The two behemoths re-defined FPS gaming for PCs before getting their own console iterations. Call of Duty and Battlefield were usually neck-and-neck in their race for dominance, with their respective fan bases at each others’ throats in online message boards. Fast forward to the present, and it looks like Battlefield might be lagging behind — by as much as 85 percent!...

Apex Legends is in the middle of a “reinvention” of sorts, as developer Respawn Entertainment has addressed community concern over matchmaking trends. Announced earlier this week, the Titanfall developer shared that the old matchmaking method is being retired in favor of a balanced approach. No timetable was announced on how long it would take for said implementations to kick in, but it seems to already be in place as one player found themselves in the most balanced match of Ranked to date....
