It’s hard to imagine Bethesda’s pitch for Fallout 76. “We have a huge dedicated player base for our single-player franchise. We should take away all of their favorite parts of the game and have these traditionally-isolated players play together.” Fallout 76 tears down the divisions between players by allowing them to play cooperatively. What’s left standing, however, is

In my time playing Omen of Sorrow, I played as all sorts of ghouls, creatures, and monster slayers. From training mode, to the story, to multiplayer, Omen of Sorrow has the setup for a fighting game with plenty of potential: I just wonder if it is something worth coming back to again. Omen of Sorrow is a 2.5D
Being deaf, I’ve often made jokes about bad subtitles that are too small to read. Just in the past few years we’ve seen a few examples of how games have stumbled when it comes to implementing proper subtitles, such as Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus with its tiny subtitles that blend, or walls of text in Fallout 4.
Today marks the five year anniversary of the release of the Xbox One, and what an interesting and crazy five years it has been to say the least. While Microsoft’s latest console has largely been somewhat divisive and hasn’t come close to the success that the Xbox 360 had, it is still a platform that
The road through Rozhok is stained with blood. Plain wooden crates decorate each side of the street: one, two, three, four, there are five of them. Five small boxes filled with guns, filled with bandages, filled with clothing. The boxes tell stories of intentions; stories of submachine gun-wielding men holding sniper rifle scopes, stories of
Three years ago, EA and DICE released Star Wars Battlefront, a recreation of the classic Battlefront series for a new age. While the game had a lot of promise, the main complaint from many was that it didn’t contain enough content at launch and the content that was on its way would only be via the game’s
As I was browsing my way throughout some great Red Dead Redemption 2 content this weekend, I stumbled across some people harassing a guy who was clearly making up fake spoilers for the game and trying to fabricate leaks for the upcoming Red Dead Online. Then, I thought to myself; “were there any leaks we didn’t
At first glance, one would think that Valiant Hearts: The Great War is just a cute 2D puzzle game. The art style comes across as very cartoonish, characters are extremely expressive and wave their limbs around to show emotions, and there is so much gibberish that if you close your eyes, you might think that you are
It’s the biggest time of the year for SMITE. Hi-Rez Expo features the game’s world championships on PC and console as well as cosplay and announcements for the Georgia-native developer’s 3rd-person MOBA.Hi-Rez Studios has combined its expo with DreamHack Atlanta this year to bring eSports together on an even larger scale. I got the chance
I played about four hours of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate a few weeks back and unlike the previous builds of the game that I had tried out, this one was a full build. That meant that every character that had been revealed since E3 2018–King K. Rool, Simon Belmont, Isabelle, etc.–were all available for play. This is
I’ve been recently making my way through the newest Tomb Raider game, Shadow of the Tomb Raider. I’ve been spending more of my game time pondering why I’m not digging this entry as much as the previous two than actually focusing on the digital world in front of me. I usually take that as a
The Electronic Entertainment Expo (or simply, E3) is one of the largest trade fairs in the world, and is an event that millions of gamers from around the world tune in every year in anticipation of their favourite companies announcing brand new titles. That’s why Sony announcing PlayStation’s absence from the trade show this week

The recent trailer for the upcoming major motion picture Pokémon: Detective Pikachu marks the first big-screen outing for the Pokémon series in a live-action format. Featuring a compelling storyline and a wisecracking electric mouse voiced by Deadpool’s Ryan Reynolds, the movie looks set to be jam-packed full of wholesome family fun. However, given the “catch ’em
One of the latest trailers for the upcoming twin-releases Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! struck something of a chord with me. If you haven’t seen it yet, it’s a relatively short video that depicts a group of friends meeting up in an urban setting to play the games together. On their
UPDATE (11/11/18): During yesterday’s Inside Xbox: X018 Special, Microsoft revealed that it had acquired two more studios: Obsidian Entertainment and inXile Entertainment. As such, I have updated this article to reflect that and give insight about these newly acquired studios. During Microsoft’s E3 Press Conference, the large publisher announced the acquisition of five brand new
Microsoft just held their Inside Xbox: X018 Special, which was home to a wide variety of interesting announcements regarding upcoming lineup of games, DLC, and updates.

The latest hero for Overwatch, Ashe, was announced at this year’s BlizzCon through a dynamic and action-packed short: Reunion. For those who are unaware, Ashe is a part of the Deadlock Gang, has a trustworthy robot companion named Bob, and can get pissed off by McCree fairly easily. At this year’s Blizzcon I was able to sit
Luxurious islands separated by a vibrant salty sea and exotic trees complimenting the shores. Mountains are packed with rocks, surrounding a warm volcano, with some around a plunging waterfall. Mildly happy homeless people wander these islands, desperate for El Presidente to construct some buildings for shelter. I am that Presidente of Tropico 6, and I
This past weekend, I completed the main story for Red Dead Redemption 2. Yes, I know, the game is massive and most people have spent a majority of their time exploring its vastness. It might just be a bit too much video game for some. I have (for better or worse) instead opted to power
Like everyone else in the world, I’ve been playing Rockstar’s newest game, Red Dead Redemption 2. Only after playing for roughly 10 hours, I can tell this is a very special game. It’s a cliché to say it, but it truly is one of the most immersive and impressive games I have ever played. So, why
If you were one of the fans annoyed by the announcement of Diablo Immortal this past weekend, then this probably isn’t going to make you any happier. According to Kotaku, Blizzard was originally going to announce that Diablo 4 was in development at the studio this past weekend during BlizzCon, but cut the announcement at the last minute. According
Last weekend saw the reveal of Diablo Immortal, a brand new game in Blizzard’s long-running series. Unfortunately, it was met with overwhelming negative reception upon its reveal by fans, as it was for iOS and Android and announced when fans were expecting a Diablo remaster or the next main entry in the franchise, Diablo 4. As
When thinking about racing games, the mind usually strays quite quickly to massive names such as Need For Speed which celebrates wildly popular releases on an annual basis and even saw a big-budget movie adaptation. However, some fantastic but reletively unknown racers got buried in the annals of time that are now seen as gems
During the opening ceremony of BlizzCon 2018, Blizzard unveiled the next Diablo game entitled, Diablo Immortal, which is an upcoming mobile game. From the moment it was announced, there was a lot of mixed reactions and confusion from the fans. Lucky for me, I got to sit down with the demo to get a feel for Diablo’s
Kadokawa Games has been very active in releasing several titles both in Japan and in the west over the past few years, including Root Letter, God Wars, Metal Max Xeno, and quite a few more. With more coming, including the newly-revealed LoveR, and Root Letter: Last Answer, DualShockers talked to President Yoshimi Yasuda, who shared
While there are a ton of musings around the internet on whether the FPS or MOBA genres are fading into obscurity, there is one that is unreservedly buried in the graveyard: mini-golf games. Which is kind of a shame. Sure, there is plenty of love for the arcade golf games like the Mario Golf series or the more
Surprising no one, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt remains an intimidating game more than three years after release. The first act, split into three major sections across the regions of Velen, Novigrad, and Skellige, can take over a hundred hours to see every icon on the map, complete every quest, and craft tons of potions,
