Onimusha: Way of the Sword Release Date Moved Forward

Image
Capcom has announced that Onimusha: Way of the Sword, the upcoming action-adventure sequel for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2, will now be released earlier than previously guided: it will be available on September 4 rather than September 25. Onimusha: Way of the Sword is the first series entry in 20 years; Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams released for PS2 in 2006. IGN awarded it an 8.8 out of 10 review score. Way of the Sword, meanwhile, is set in Kyoto during the early Edo period, and we were quite impressed by it in our recent hands-on session at Summer Game Fest. A demo for Onimusha: Way of the Sword is available now for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (on both Steam and the Epic Games Store). Those who play the demo (and, crucially, have save data on their hard drive) and then buy the game will receive a Kubi Akari charm in the full release. Onimusha: Way of the Sword looks to continue a big 2026 for Capcom, who enjoyed great reviews and huge sales numbers for Resident Ev...

Marvel Super Heroes Comes to Magic: The Gathering

If you’ve never played Magic: The Gathering (MTG), the prospect of getting into it can seem pretty daunting. This is a game, after all, with 30+ years of history. That’s more than three decades of cards and mechanics, worldbuilding and lore. If you’ve ever lived and breathed a live service video game you’ll know just how much energy and time it can take simply to keep up. Constant new releases and updates that drive an ever-evolving meta mean it can be tricky to be even a casual fan… let alone finding your feet as a completely new player. Magic: The Gathering definitely has many of the same challenges, but it also has more ways to interact with its cards and its history and its gameplay on your own terms. The fact that it’s mostly played as a physical game, for instance, means that it doesn’t necessarily matter what the best decks are, and what the most competitive players are doing. If you have a bad but fun deck and I have the same, we can still play and have a good time. Wizards of ...

Love and Deepspace Fans Tearfully Hold 'Funeral' for Valko at Infold HQ After Company Suddenly Drops Character

Image
Love and Deepspace fans are holding memorial services for Valko after Infold, the game’s developer, pulled the plug on the wolfy love interest mere days before his debut. Chinese LADS players are showing up to Infold's Shanghai HQ in droves, bringing with them flowers, candles, and tears as they mourn the loss of a character they were excited to romance come July 9. Videos of sobbing fans at the office building are taking social media by storm, but this isn’t the only way players are showing their disapproval of Infold’s choices — they’ve also signed a petition demanding the developer reverse their decision and bring Valko back. "When I first arrived at the Diezhi building and saw that wall, I couldn't help but cry. A girl shared her chocolate with me, another girl was herself choked up as she comforted me and held my hand." pic.twitter.com/1Y66FfAnhV — 𝒔𝒖𝒛𝒖 (@pinkcrispss) July 1, 2026 At the time of writing, the petition boasts over 78,000 verified signat...
