Warner Brothers Interactive has released a trailer for Middle Earth: Shadow of War's new Story DLC Blade of Galadriel to go alongside today's release.Shadow of War has been out there a while now While it didn't quite land with the same critical praise as the first title and it came under fire for microtransactions, it was[...]
Injustice 2 really was a pretty great entry for the series. While perhaps not taken as seriously in the fighting game community as say, Street Fighter, from the campaign to the approachable skill barrier, there is a ton there even for players who don't generally dabble in fighting games. It had a fairly decent loot system, which […]
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment today announced the Injustice 2 Championship Series which will be presented by PlayStation 4. This new global eSports program for Nether Realm's Injustice 2 has Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment teaming up with the ESL, Gamelta eSports Professional League, GameStop, PS4, and Twitch to make this an eSports tournament worth the entrance fee. The program […]
Injustice 2 looks to build on the work that the first in the franchise laid down, as well as adding some RPG character building elements to the game. (I can't wait to see how that plays out). Well, the roster is growing with every big convention it seems, and Gamescom is no different. NetherRealms have […]
I thought we wouldn't be seeing the game until E3, but Warner Brothers Interactive have decided to lift the curtain early.This trailer has just been released, and features a bunch of DC's finest in an all out brawl It also seems to show that the suits of the heroes will have some sort of 'armour'[...]
Guest stars in Mortal Kombat have been a key part of the modern era for the franchise. Just this year, we've seen Predator and Jason Voorhees join the fight, adding a little star power to proceedings of Mortal Kombat X. But there was, at somepoint, another 80s villain on the table. On Twitter, franchise creator […]
Mad Max has a tall order coming up against Metal Gear Solid V on September 1st. Although, I'm beginning to think Avalanche are very confident in this game, which is a good sign. They've held their ground on that release date and have posted a ton of the game unedited online. And here is another […]
Dying Light remains one of the true surprises of the year. The game came out in January to unexpectedly good reviews and remains one the best selling titles this year. And things are about to get a whole lot bigger for the game too. Techland have announced a new DLC titled the Following that plans […]
Well this is nice to see.Two developers intimate with Warner Brothers Interactive have shown a little camaraderie over the weekend Arkham Assylum developer Rocksteady sent over a beautiful cake featuring the severed heads of Sub Zero and Scorpion in celebration of the launch of Mortal Kombat X.Mortal Kombat creator Ed Boon tweeted out an image[...]
This is silly, but bare with me while I get to the reasons why. Warner Brothers and NetherRealm Studios have a rather odd micro-transaction currency in Mortal Kombat X. As the game launched today, several outlets like Polygon noticed that the game had Easy Fatalities purchasable in the PlayStation store. You can pick up five […]
I've spent a little time getting to grips with Mortal Kombat X this morning. There is a pace to the game that's a lot of fun, meaning matches are over quickly, but still feel substantial in their own way. Of course, the blood bath that occurs after said match is one of the real selling […]
We've seen so much of Mortal Kombat X already, that it kind of makes the mind boggle. I don't remember a AAA game having such an aggressive and persistent marketing campaign, using everything from adverts, traditional media, YouTubers and Twitch to get the word out about the game. There is still one element of that […]
Violence goes hand in hand with the Mortal Kombat. Some might even argue if it weren't for the über-gore, the series may not be around today. The franchise utlizises it with such gusto though, it's one of the things that makes it 'special', for good or ill. That is why it's always interesting to see […]
I'd almost forgotten April Fools is tomorrow, or as I like to call it: 'the day the internet burns'. It's that joyous day where fact and fiction blurs and nothing can be taken seriously. Honestly, it can make my job a bit of a hassle. (That isn't to say it isn't fun mind!) That's why […]
Mortal Kombat X really is creeping up on us. The exhaustive marketing push for the game has made sure that it's never far from anyone's mind. Soon enough, all that will be over and we will be disemboweling fighters all for good sport. To prime you, here is the first 30 minutes of the game. […]
Remember that live action Mortal Kombat trailer I ran the other day? It really tapped into a 14 year old psyche hiding in my mind by being cut to Chop Suey by System of a Down. I can't think of a much better song to cut Mortal Kombat too, well…unless we are talking about THAT song. […]
We've all been there. You're playing Mortal Kombat with a friend, you beat them and the screen goes dark. It's Fatality time! You want it to happen, even your friend wants it to happen. You press a series of arrows as fast as you can and then hit 'X'. Instead of ripping off the head […]
Mortal Kombat is just over two weeks away, so the fighting game community is obviously pretty excited. The franchise has seen a pretty prolific rebirth over the last two games, and the release could well surprise people with how well it does. Excited enough to brawl in the streets though? This new live action trailer […]
Mortal Kombat X is just over two weeks away. That will now doubt make quite a few of you pretty excited. The game is shaping up to be one of the bloodiest and gruesome games in recent memory, but that's largely the point. Erron Black is a new character joining the Mortal Kombat universe this time […]
It's been long speculated, but up until now, fan favorite Mortal Kombat character Liu Kang has remained elusive from X's confirmed fighter list. Today, NetherRealm finally revealed him as playable in the game. You can grab your first look at him in this trailer. There is bunch of other story stuff going on here too, so if […]
