Arrowhead Games said it has heard the "fair" but "painful to read" criticisms from the Helldivers 2 community and has made the promise to take action with more frequent communication in the future. Johan Pilestedt, who previously served as studio CEO before switching his role to chief creative officer in May 2024, got in touch with fans of the PlayStation shooter with a Reddit AMA during the weekend. He said his goal was to address the "hate, misinformation, and disappointment" within the growing r/HelldiversUnfiltered subreddit and then spent time replying to some of the most common complaints from the community. Although it's unclear if the Helldivers 2 AMA itself did anything to ease the tension, what was clear was that it had opened the floodgates for disappointed players to air their frustrations. After the event concluded, the Arrowhead developer signed off with a lengthy message in an attempt to provide comfort to those who feared the stu...

The Pokémon Company technical director Masaaki Hoshino has acknowledged continued fan scrutiny of the series' visuals, seen most recently in criticism for Pokémon Champions . Hoshino is a veteran of the Pokémon series, who worked on Pokémon Yellow before a long stint at Japanese fighting game developer Bandai Namco. This then led to him returning to work on Pokémon as producer on its more traditional fighting game spinoff Pokkén Tournament, developed by Bandai Namco, before its MOBA spinoff Pokémon Unite, and finally Champions itself. Champions launched earlier this month to a wave of feedback that expressed disappointment for the game's relatively basic feature set and small Pokédex roster . And, yet again, there was criticism of the game's visuals — as there has been for various mainline Pokémon game entries over the past decade. "Yes, as a Pokémon fan, I naturally understand the various discussions currently taking place within the fan community," Hoshino...

Blast Blade from Silent Bark games is a 3D platform fighter that puts you behind the wits and weapons of warriors and magic users. You and up to four contenders face off in one of many dynamic arenas, but unlike traditional fighting games, there are no hit point bars for you to chip away at. The only way to win is to build up your opponents’ damage percentage until they’re vulnerable enough to be blasted out of the ring and over the horizon by a powerful attack. Blast Blade's mechanics are simple and easy to grasp. There’s no need to memorize complex character moves that require on-the-dime execution. You can move freely on the land and in the air, which lets you dodge your foes' hard-hitting attacks while taking advantage of openings to get your own hits. As you pummel your opponents, you build up an Ultimate gauge. Once it’s full, you can unleash a massive attack that sends them flying. One strategic hit is all it can take to turn the tables when you’re inches from defeat....

Epic Games has confirmed it will refund D4vd cosmetics to any Fortnite player who makes a request via player support, with further changes to come. 21-year-old U.S. singer D4vd, real name David Anthony Burke, was charged with the murder of a 14-year-old girl, Celeste Rivas Hernandez. It is alleged that he killed her on or around April 23, 2025, after she threatened to report their relationship. Burke pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder, lewd and lascivious acts with a person under 14, and mutilating a dead body. Fortnite players had for some time called on Epic Games to remove D4vd emotes and jamtracks from the game, with some saying they would rather not own the items. The D4vd items include the Feel It and Trophy Drop emotes, and the What Are You Waiting For and Locked and Loaded Jam Tracks. Today, after players reported success in getting a refund from Epic via player support, a tweet from the Fortnite Status account confirmed the news, and noted that further changes we...
