Between the Battlefront 2 fiasco and The Rise of Skywalker, it felt as if Star Wars was on the decline as a franchise. The Mandalorian helped restore my faith, though, even if the CGI corpse of young Mark Hamill still haunts me in my dreams. If the Lucasfilm Games experiment pans out, then maybe the Star Wars video games can be redeemed as w
The biggest stories of the week include the return of Lucasfilm Games, more Cyberpunk 2077 drama, new Nintendo Switch game announcements, the Hitman 3 EGS controversy, the Indiana Jones game announcement, and several high-profile del
To try claw back some good press, developers at Avalanche leaked internal plans to allow players to play as a transgender character . Clearly, the developers inside Avalanche were embarrassed and upset that the actions of Leavitt and Rowling were jeopardising the game they’re creating. It’s hard not to feel bad for t
We lasted a whole week without Cyberpunk 2077 drama, but we're back in it now. CD Projekt Red founder Marcin Iwinski released a video on Twitter that discussed the launch disaster . The team's aim is to work on the last-gen versions of the game, in order to get them up to speed. This means that the PS5/Xbox Series updates have been pushed back to the second half of 2021 . It seems that even the fans who own the current-gen versions would have benefitted from waiting a year before purchasing the g
It happens all the time. Someone says something awful and gets held accountable for it. People defend the person who says the bad thing, and start attacking other people who are criticising the person who said the bad thing. “It’s free speech,” they say, while also telling people they should shut up. You see, their free speech is sacred, but you’re just participating in cancel culture by opposing it. This, my friends, is the art of the gr
Lichdom: Battlemage is a first-person spell-slinging adventure. Players take on the role of Dragon, a mage seeking vengeance for the deaths of his family members. It's certainly a far cry from taking classes at Hogwarts in Hogwarts Legacy , but the game does offer a robust spell-crafting system, with more than 1,000 spells for players to cast at their enemies in fast-paced action. And like Hogwarts Legacy, players come across magical creatures - though in Lichdom: Battlemage , they are anything but frien
We see this all the time and people never wise up to it. There are countless grifters I won’t name because I don’t want to give them any oxygen and they’re as bad for name searching as Lord Voldemort, but I hope one day the people who get sucked in by this will realise they’re being played. Until then, the grift will power
Spellbreak is a battle royale that thrusts players into the role of a battlemage. This multiplayer game brings on the fantastical chaos of The Battle of Hogwarts with stunning, anime-inspired visuals. Players work in teams to decimate their foes with devastating spells. Unlike in Hogwarts Legacy News|Https://Hogwartslegacyfans.Com/ Legacy , magic has been banned , and it's up to players to take it back. Across the Hollow Lands, Spellbreak players discover items that gift them abilities such as flight, invisibility, and teleportation. The player can also wield two spell-fueled gauntlets at once to create intense spell combinati
Hogwarts Legacy _ will allow players to experience the magic of Hogwarts like never before, but the _Harry Potter RPG won't be arriving on consoles until next year. Luckily, in the meantime, there are several other magic-based video games for Hogwarts Legacy fans to
Hitman 3 is on its way and console players will have a leg up over the PC players. If you own Hitman 2, then you can play through its levels in Hitman 3, but only on consoles. Hitman 3 is an Epic Games Store exclusive on PC until 2022. This means that you have to buy Hitman 2 on EGS to use its stages in Hitman 3 , even if you already own the game on Steam. Epic CEO Tim Sweeney has said that he's looking into the issue, so it's possible that a deal can be worked out before the game launc
While fans still seem unsure about buying the game, the matter isn't brought up in the FAQ which makes sense seeing as Rowling is, of course, going to profit from the sales of the game considering it's based on her IP. This has seen people claiming that, while they're excited about the game, they'll more than likely wait for the game to be available as a pre-owned product from physical retailers. However, users also want to buy it to support the developers behind the game who are getting caught up in everyth
Since then, Bloomberg's Jason Schreier released a report about the development of Cyberpunk 2077 . It seems that management ignored the information provided to them about the developers regarding issues getting the game running on PS4/Xbox One. The report also claimed that the E3 2018 demo was fake , and that developers wasted months of time putting it toget
(Image: https://s1.dmcdn.net/v/PYiEY1SThZZueih2d/x720)Hogwarts Legacy is being developed by Avalanche and published by Warner Bros. Games under the Portkey label. And the reveal trailer shows off Hogwarts in a much earlier period than Harry Potter fans are used too — the 1800s specifically. The game comes with RPG elements and features familiar lore while at the same time, not being a direct adaption to the films and bo
