2021 will see quite the battle for FPS supremacy and Call of Duty is gunning for the top spot once again with their upcoming release, Call of Duty: Vanguard. Set in the backdrop of World War II, Call of Duty: Vanguard aims to deliver the complete package to fans with a story campaign, Warzone integration, Zombies, and its tried and tested online multiplayer with the spotlight on the Champion Hill mode. Champion Hill is a round-robin tournament-style mode that pits groups of 2 or 3 to do battle against others in a 60-second no-frills shootout rotating across 4 maps. You start the battle with 12 “lives” (for duos, 18 for trios), and each time a player from your squad is killed, you lose a life. In between rounds, you earn cash to purchase equipment, weapons, and even perks to give you the edge against the competition. The last team standing…

Blasphemous, the surprisingly successful and outstanding metroidvania title along the likes of Ender Lilies from developers The Game Kitchen, has received a lot of post-launch DLC in the past but it seems the devs aren’t quite done just yet. Gamescom played host to a bunch of Indie announcements, with one of the bigger ones being the “Wounds of Eventide” DLC, which will come on December 9. Check out the awesome animated trailer below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKg34fPKaQU That’s only part of the good news because if you watch the full trailer, you’ll see quite the surprise towards the end. Yep, Blasphemous II is in the works and is planned for a 2023 release! Fans of the game will surely be happy about this bit of news, even though the sequel is still a couple of years away. Blasphemous is now available for the PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, and PC.

Sifu has been quite the enigma on the game event circuit, being announced during February’s State of Play and featured in almost every pocket event that followed. Recently, it was struck with an unfortunate delay, bringing it from 2021 to 2022. As the penultimate announcement for the recently concluded Gamescom Opening Night Livestream, Sifu finally gets its release date, and it is probably one of the easiest to remember – February 22, 2022 or 2/22/22. That’s a lot of two’s. Alongside the release date is a brand-new gameplay trailer, which you can check out below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roirtJD_3fc Geoff Keighley describes it “as fluid as the Arkham games with the precision of fighting games.” If it plays like Arkham with the precision of Tekken, say no more and count us in! The game is primarily a revenge tale where the titular character is training for that final showdown to take down the…

The Gamescom Opening Night Livestream started strong with the announced Saints Row reboot for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and PC. Yep, you read right, a reboot! As the cinematic trailer opens, it sidesteps the tongue-in-cheek appeal that was the trademark of Saints Row and adapts a semi-serious tone as the featured gang is intercepting a heist in progress. The trailer ends with a launch date that is February 25, 2022, which surprisingly isn’t too far away from now! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgjzDJA1o1E The game will feature three different gangs that will battle for supremacy. While the visual panache is great, hopefully, they still kept some of their signature hilarity that made the game stand out on its own. A very short gameplay trailer was also shown and it’s looking to be quite crazy, which is a well-known franchise trademark. https://youtu.be/tmzsUeejmvY Saints Row will launch on February 25, 2022…

Firaxis fans waiting for a new outing from the team will surely get excited for this one as 2K and Marvel Entertainment have announced Marvel’s Midnight Suns, a brand new tactical RPG set in the darker side of the Marvel Universe. Scheduled for a March 2022 release, Marvel’s Midnight Suns will be available on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and Epic Games. The game will see the Avengers enlist the help of the titular cast – Nico Minoru, Blade, Magik, and Ghost Rider – young heroes with powers deeply rooted in the supernatural to fight the resurrected evil master Chthon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBwMAyRW0P8 “We’re thrilled to team with Firaxis Games, who combine a history of building outstanding tactical games with an authentic love of Marvel’s supernatural side,” said Bill Rosemann, Vice President of Creative at Marvel Games.  “Marvel’s Midnight Suns offers players the chance to…

It was certainly not an easy decision for Guerrilla and Sony, but Horizon Forbidden West is now officially delayed to February 18, 2022. The good news, at least, is that we finally get a release date announcement, one that we’ve been waiting for since its State of Play livestream back in May. As posted on the PlayStation Blog and announced during Gamescom 2021 Opening Night Live, the delay was certainly due to the challenges brought about by the pandemic and had to prioritize the health and safety of the devs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eRkPOU0HzE With the release date finally revealed, the only question now is if you’ll be playing Horizon Forbidden West on the PS4 or PS5. Let us know!

During the recently concluded Destiny 2 livestream, it was finally announced that Destiny 2’s next major expansion, The Witch Queen, will bring in Savathun on February 22, 2022. We’ve heard about Savathun for the LONGEST time and now we finally get to see and do battle with her. Guardians will make their way through to Savathun’s Throneworld, the brand new area to explore and within it, new challenges that are shaping up to be one of the best build-ups to a boss encounter in recent memory. Among the new enemies shown, Hive Guardians are particularly interesting because of the fact that they seem to mimic some Guardian attacks, abilities, and skills, making them formidable opponents. Check out the reveal trailer below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0IlFZ61734 Included in The Witch Queen expansion will be a new Glaive melee weapon that features combos and even projectile attacks, which makes it an awesome addition to a…

The update is rather short and simply has one line to explain what it is – “This update adds 60 FPS support when running the game on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 through backwards compatibility.” https://twitter.com/assassinscreed/status/1429835825685143560 Assassin’s Creed Odyssey tells the story of Alexios and Kassandra across ancient Greece and is the follow-up to the series of Assassin’s Creed games that have fully revamped its combat systems, starting with Origins.
