The Wall Street Journal originally broke the news but since then, many sources familiar with the matter have spoken to other outlets. According to a source speaking with CNBC, GameStop’s plan is to establish cryptocurrency partnerships to “create games and items for the marketplace.” This marketplace, which is currently accepting requests to become a creator, will focus on virtual gaming items such as cosmetics and weapons. It seems the company has been hiring folks with blockchain and crypto backgrounds for the last few months, and there are currently over two dozen staffers on the team....
This is perhaps Rod Fergusson’s most surprising move yet, as the industry veteran has spent the last six years heading up Gears of War custodian, The Coalition, at Microsoft. Beginning in March, Fergusson will join Blizzard to “oversee the Diablo franchise.” “Leaving is bittersweet as I love our Gears family, the fans, and everyone at The Coalition and Xbox,” he said in a goodbye tweet. “Leaving is bittersweet as I love our Gears family, the fans, and everyone at The Coalition and Xbox....

The information is contained in the official Ghost of Tsushima gameplay trailer, which you can check out below. It features approximately 18 minutes of brand new gameplay, and as well as showing off Ghost of Tsushima combat styles, it also specifically shows us how we can use fear as a weapon when samurai tactics fail.

Ubisoft decided to reveal Far Cry 6 to the world in a similar way to how the series’ recent games have debuted: with a short cinematic that introduces the game’s main villain and establishes his character. This time, the character of Anton Castillo is played by none other than Breaking Bad’s Giancarlo Esposito. Fans of the series, however, have come to expect the big villains to not stick around for the whole game....
The rather excellent Gone Home is free on the Epic Games Store alongside Runic Games’ Hob, and Drawful 2. Gone Home, the first-person, exploration game from The Fullbright Company, was originally released in 2013 and tells the story of the Greenbriar family via the perspective of their daughter who finds her family missing after returning from a year away overseas.

Take-Two fired the first shot last year when it announced that NBA 2K21 would cost $70 on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. The publisher has since backtracked slightly, saying that not every game it makes will cost $70. Since then, a number of other publishers have either fully committed to the idea of $70 games on next-gen consoles, or strongly suggested they’re considering it. Sony, for instance, confirmed that all of its first-party games on PS5 will sell for $70....

Elden Ring, FromSoftware’s real game that’s coming out at some point, has not featured into any games event/livestream/show since its initial reveal at E3 2019. In fact, were not for the faithful keeping the dream alive, most wouldn’t even remember it existed. There’s been no news, no teasers, nothing. The drought has gotten so bad that From fans have taken to creating their own fake lore, posting anecdotes about cheap boss moves and helping each other get past difficult areas of their imagination....
343 Industries studio head Chris Lee has said that due to the “unprecedented challenges of this year,” the studio isn’t sure when or if public flights may take place for Halo Infinite. It’s also quite possible one won’t take place, as the team isn’t currently where it “expected to be in terms of broader public flighting.” “When we first revealed Halo Infinite back in 2018, I spoke of our ambitions to kick off an early flighting program to bring the community along on our development journey,” said Lee in a developer blog post....

YouTuber Austin Evans ran a tech demo of the game on the new Xbox Series X, which transforms the blocky sandbox game into something else when ray tracing effects are turned on. Lights reflect off of the floors and walls, shadows are improved, textures have a new depth and clarity to them, and the overall effect is something altogether more modern looking. But, y’know, still Minecraft. Ray Tracing off:...
First of all, it’s important to note that the trailer is emphatically fan-made. It is not affiliated with Rockstar in any capacity - although it’s worth mentioning that we’ve spoken to Rockstar about the potential of photography in Red Dead Online before. “This is such a cool area,” lead open world designer Scott Butchard told VG247 back in September. “Photography and allowing players to capture their adventures and moments is really important to us, and it’s something we’ve already established the community love....
