Nearly decade after its first announcement, Ubisoft's Watch Dogs movie has finally begun filming.

Who is the face of Dragon Age? It's a simple question with a tricky answer because there's no obvious candidate. There's no Commander Shepard through-line running through the series. Each game has had a different protagonist. There's the Grey Warden in Dragon Age: Origins, Hawke in Dragon Age 2, and the Inquisitor in Dragon Age: Inquisition. And now there's Rook in Dragon Age: Veilguard. Heck, even the game's main companions... Read more ›

Zenless Zone Zero can't decide if it wants to wow you with chaotic action, or let you kick back and explore its comic-book-styled urban streets. One mission could be packed with frantic dodges and chain attacks as you mow down monsters in dangerous 'Hollow' areas, whereas the next might be just grabbing coffee with a bud, or teaching a cute bunny-robot-thing Bangboo to play football. So instead of committing to... Read more ›

While developer Ao Norte doesn't specify further, it is immediately apparent Tiny Garden's quaint toy-aesthetic has been inspired by Polly Pocket, with its clam shell opening, dolls house-like levels and - of course - its tiny garden.Other video...

Unpacking, it was called. And the hope was it would build on the success of the studio's first game, Assault Android Cactus, an energetic twin-stick shooter which did relatively well. But there was trepidation,... Read more ›

A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead was actually announced... Read more ›

Dragon's Dogma 2 is a beautiful title that may go down as one of the best looking games of the year. Capcom's open-world epic features some outstanding lighting technology, with detailed ray-traced global illumination (RTGI) giving the title a very refined appearance.
