Biggest Video Game News Of The Week

In the absence of playing any actual games in Overwatch 2, I had a decent amount of fun staring at its menus as the search time for a match moved into the double digits. There was a weird smugness to seeing the years of work I put into the first entry immediately reflected in the updated client, which to me looks slicker and better presented than anything that came before it.


With high health and quick healing, Roadhog’s survivability is no doubt his strong suit. In fact, his self-sufficiency has Roadhog often ranked as one of the worst tanks for standard PvP as he has no means of protecting or supporting his teammates aside from acting as a human shi

Despite locking certain modes away until new players have earned them, actually selecting what you want to play and jumping into a game is seamless. Much like the title screen, not much here has changed when compared to the first entry. Things are simple and easy to read, while updating character designs have been thrown onto each icon and pop with real visual flair. With any luck, PvE will be an option on this menu in just a few short months.


Though Hanzo’s sniping may be outdone by Widowmaker’s hitscan rifle, his ability to play mid-range makes him a better pick for offensive modes and maps lacking long sight lines, such as the best map, King’s


Joanna Dark is a classic spy action hero who is fitted with all the necessary skills, determination, and equipment to save the world over and over again. Along with the black and blue suit, Dark rocks short but flaming red hair and a pair of pistols strapped to her


Updated on November 29, 2024, by Ritwik Mitra: The diversity in most video games is something that fans appreciate, with players seeing characters with varying physical characteristics that make them easy to identify. This includes the many red-haired video game characters who make a strong impression with their fiery personalities and have become iconic figures in pop culture. With female characters becoming more prominent than ever, it's easy to see why the best female redheads in video games are a joy to witness every time they get the opportunity to sh


This week, the unreal-powered remaster leaked online in its entirety . The game can only be played via Xbox 360 emulator on PC. Online gameplay, leaderboards, and achievements are not available, but the remaster does feature the ability to switch back and forth between the original N64 graphics and the updated HD graph


The game’s original man-for-all-seasons has thankfully had precious few changes. He was designed to be Overwatch 2 Tier list’s balanced pick for new players and FPS lovers, and not much has changed. 76 is a perfect pick for PvE because of his versatil


In terms of the style and rapid-fire nature of these games, the vibe feels more akin to the underrated Wii gem from 2006, Smooth Moves . The smoother, more dynamic motion of the Joy-cons allow this experience to really shine, with fewer rough patches or confusing mome

I love this screen. It’s slick, colourful, and showcases how good I am at certain characters. I will say that I am not a Lucio main by choice, but largely because my team would be ruined without me healing their asses on a constant basis. All the usual customisation options for analysing your stats can be found here alongside statistics and challenges. It’s a shame that a lot of tasks have carried over from the first game instead of starting afresh, meaning your main source of progression this time around is the battle pass and not much else. Speaking of!


The unique hero-shooter actually proves a good fit, thanks to the slew of customizations given — and the fact that many heroes don't require great aim . Players can tinker with several settings in the controls options menu, including gyro-specific controls, sensitivity on different axes, and aim assist. Small inclusions like the ability to disable gyro while using the stick go a long way in making OW2 a smoother, tighter experie


After five years of trying, Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment has finally secured a patent for the Nemesis System . Created for Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, the Nemesis System has been hailed as one of the greatest innovations in gaming over the last decade. Unfortunately, WB's patent means the chances we'll get to see the system grow and flourish are relatively s


This is an enjoyable, well-crafted Hybrid map to tangle in, particularly for more defensively-minded players, who can utilize the solid chokepoint under the bridge which leads to the initial capture po


Poison Ivy is the excitable yet murderous redhead that can often bring Gotham to its knees. She's a fantastic character who has taken over much of the world of Gotham through TV shows and video games, particularly Arkham Kni

The Overwatch 2 battle pass is clean and simple. I’m surprised Blizzard didn’t decide to push the boat out or try something new with its implementation of the mechanic, because what we have here is rather basic and predictable. Some tiers have more than one reward hidden away inside them which is cool, and the variety of cosmetics is quite incredible and makes great use of the extensive hero roster, but what you’re working towards is very clear.
