| Paradox "happy with progress" on Bloodlines 2 - but its developer is still secret Posted: 16 Nov 2021 04:13 PM PST  Paradox Interactive say they're happy with progress on Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2, but they're still refusing to say who's making it. The topic came up again during the Swedish publisher's Q3 interim report, in response to the question, "Any news on Bloodlines 2 or its developer?" |
| The Game Awards nominees announced, with Deathloop leading the way Posted: 16 Nov 2021 03:54 PM PST  The Game Awards, Geoff Keighley's yearly excuse to invite friends round, has announced this year's nominees. The contenders for the Game Of The Year award include Deathloop, It Takes Two, Psychonauts 2 and Resident Evil Village. Deathloop leads the nominations with nine. |
| Activision Blizzard employees demand CEO's removal after new report Posted: 16 Nov 2021 02:12 PM PST  A report by the Wall Street Journal has brought to light several new examples of alleged misconduct by Activision staff, including rape and sexual harassment. The report also highlights several instances where Activision CEO Bobby Kotick was reportedly aware of the allegations but did not inform the company's board of directors and, in one instance, intervened to prevent an alleged harasser from being fired. In response to the report, employee group A Better ABK have called for Kotick to be replaced as CEO and are organising a staff walkout. |
| Halo newcomers, how are you finding Halo Infinite? Posted: 16 Nov 2021 09:25 AM PST  Though Halo started out on Macs then joined Microsoft, historically the series hasn't had much of a presence on personal computers. At first we got ports years after their Xbox debut, then Microsoft just stopped releasing Windows versions for their flagship first-person shooter series. Well, that's changing with Halo Infinite, which is coming to PC at the same time as Xbox—including the Halo Infinite multiplayer beta launched last night. So I ask you, an audience with less exposure to the sci-fi shooter: how are you liking it, PC gamers? |
| Dragon Ball: The Breakers looks like Dead By Daylight meets Prop Hunt Posted: 16 Nov 2021 08:39 AM PST  Today, Bandai Namco announced Dragon Ball: The Breakers, which is perhaps the most baffling game to be revealed this year. It's a 7v1 survival horror game where a group of players have to escape a "raider" using all sorts of weird and wonderful abilities. It's like Dead By Daylight meets Prop Hunt. Truthfully, when I first watched the trailer I was convinced they'd just put Cell in Dead By Daylight. Like, why not? |
| A love letter to Jon from Sherlock Holmes Chapter One Posted: 16 Nov 2021 08:06 AM PST  I didn't really have the luxury of devoting a cool 500 words to a single character in my Sherlock Holmes Chapter One review, firstly because I'm a believer in word economy, but secondly because what I wanted to talk about is a bit of a spoiler. It's integral to the plot of the game and it's revealed very quickly once you start playing, but it's also not mentioned in any of the promo blurbs or marketing, so I'm guessing it's meant to be a fun little "Oh!" moment. On the other hand, I do really want to talk about how cool Sherlock's best mate Jon is... So if you want to go into Frogwares' new detect 'em up cold, then save this and come back to it after you've played about, ooh, 45 minutes? I think that's long enough to get clear of spoiler territory. |
| The Elder Scrolls 6 will be exclusive to PC and Xbox Posted: 16 Nov 2021 07:17 AM PST  When Microsoft bought Bethesda last year, it raised questions about which consoles their future games would end up on. It's not a huge drama for us in PC land, Microsoft already offer most of their new stuff to us and the Xbox lot. But for PlayStation owners, the drama has arrived. Phil Spencer says he sees The Elder Scrolls 6 as a PC and Xbox exclusive, the same as Starfield. |
| Dying Light 2’s practical parkour is a promising compliment to its perfect urban playground Posted: 16 Nov 2021 07:00 AM PST  Dying Light 2, like its predecessor, knows that its setting is as much of a sell as its gameplay. The development team at Techland has moved on from Dying Light’s setting of Harran in a nuclear-powered ‘salt the earth’ parting blow, and has shifted focus to Villedor. You play as a stranger, Aiden, travelling to this once-majestic capital to locate his missing sister, and the second you step foot into its guarded walls you’re faced with a city kitbashed together from pieces of Paris, Berlin, Hamburg, Ostrow and other European landmarks. In Villedor proper – a city that’s been designed by actual town planners and urban designers – you see the scope of what Techland is going for. This is a big game, with some big ideas. It’s not just more of the same Dying Light. |
