Capcom has revealed a Resident Evil: Code Veronica remake, just named Resident Evil Veronica, delighting fans of the franchise watching this year's Summer Game Fest livestream. Footage showed an unnamed female character being shown around a Parisian apartment (though the clue here is she's the sister of someone else here on a secret mission). The footage concludes with the reveal that this is none other than Claire Redfield (sister of Chris) — and this is a reimagined take on the classic Code Veronica story. While great news for Resident Evil fans, the announcement does not come as too much of a surprise. Previous reporting had pinned a Code Veronica remake for a 2027 release , and tipped its reveal as taking place this year following the launch of Resident Evil: Requiem . IGN previously verified that a new version of the game is indeed in development , alongside a further-off Resident Evil Zero remake as well. MP1st , meanwhile, has claimed that the game had been pencilled ...

If you found yourself lurking around Kickstarter a few months back, or really the internet in general, you probably heard something about The Official Cyberpunk Trading Card Game . Pulling in more than $28 million dollars and taking the top spot as the most-funded game on the crowdfunding platform , the TCG based on CD Projekt Red’s Cyberpunk 2077 RPG continues to evolve and change post-campaign.

Crimson Desert continues to evolve at a rapid pace. This week’s update adds a number of quality-of-life changes, makes the Wyvern a mount, and adds a pinball minigame, because why not? Pearl Abyss has released major updates for the single-player open world action adventure game pretty much every week since launch. It has changed significantly, with everything from combat to endgame reworked. And every now and then, Pearl Abyss will just throw a curve ball in a patch, seemingly just for fun, to keep players on their toes. This week, it's a pinball machine. Random, but brilliant! The Pinball minigame is located to the inn near the Delesyian Institute. The patch adds the Marni Token Exchange where tokens obtained from the Pinball machine can be exchanged for various items, including the Material Box of Fortune, Abyss Artifact, two types of Artifact Chests, a Helm, 13 types of furniture, and three types of gear crafting recipes. Pinball isn’t the only minigame added with today's p...

The Xbox Series S is taking some heat once again following comments made by the founder of Moon Studio, the team behind action RPG No Rest for the Wicked , which has been available on Steam Early Access since 2024. During the PlayStation State of Play, it was confirmed the game was coming to PS5 this October in celebration of its 1.0 release, but Xbox users will have to wait. This isn't due to any kind of marketing deal with PlayStation. Rather, it has to do with limitations with the Xbox Series S. In response to a fan inquring about the lack of an Xbox release date, studio founder and game director Thomas Mahler pointed to the Series S. "Series S is making that rough," said Mahler in a comment on Discord. "We'll ship it after in a good way once it's optimized like crazy for Switch 2 and Xbox." Another user joked that a mobile version would follow the Xbox and Switch 2 versions, to which Mahler responded: "Series S and mobile specs aren't too fa...

We finally have a release date for LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight on Nintendo Switch 2. The game will come to the Nintendo platform on September 18th, and you can pre-order it right now. The Nintendo Switch 2 version will have a standard edition (USD $69.99) and a deluxe edition (USD $89.99), the latter of which will give players extra digital content. Unlike the deluxe edition on the Xbox, PS5, and PC release, this won't include any kind of early access, so there's no need to shell out extra dollars to play the game sooner on Switch 2.

It will also give you access to the Mayhem Collection DLC, which will also be released on September 18th. In addition to more cosmetics, the pack will add Joker and Harley Quinn as playable characters, as well as a new story mission. Those who pre-order ...

If you've ever wanted to fight a games industry CEO, now you can. Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick is now a playable character in WWE 2K26 , meaning you can either play as him or fight him yourself. There hasn't been any kind of official acknowledgement of his inclusion; he was simply quietly added in a new update today. The 68-year-old gaming executive holds an in-game rating of 77, meaning he's probably not going to claim any titles himself, but Zelnick is reportedly very fit in real life. The CEO claims he works out 10 to 12 times a week (that's an average of almost twice a day, for those who aren't mathmaticians) and runs his own private workout club known as The Program. He's even written his own wellness book, Becoming Ageless: The Four Secrets To Looking and Feeling Younger Than Ever. All of this is to say he's pretty jacked, even though he's almost 70, and could probably fare better in a WWE ring than the average person. Why did Zelnick g...
