Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is the first game from legendary studio Rocksteady since the release of Batman: Arkham Knight almost 9 years ago. Unfortunately, it seems as though the live-service multiplayer-focused title has failed to capture the hearts of fans, as just a few weeks removed from the …

Ahead of the game’s release, back in September NetherRealm revealed to fans that the then-upcoming Mortal Kombat 1 would not include cross play – at least not at launch. With us now being a few months into the game’s lifecycle NetherRealm has revealed when MK1 will be getting the much-requested feature. …

Last week, we reported on a job listing which claimed that Warner Bros. upcoming Wonder Woman game will be a live-service title.

Warner Bros. leadership made it clear recently that it wants to transform its games division into a live-service powerhouse, stepping away from the single-player action titles like the Batman: Arkham series or even the more recent Middle-Earth games. This will all kick off with Rocksteady's Suicide Squad game next year …

After creating the critically acclaimed Batman Arkham Trilogy, Rocksteady’s next title was announced to be Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.

Humble Bundles are a great way for video game fans to acquire a number of high-quality titles for a relatively low price.

Over the course of the past console generation we saw cross-play become an increasingly common feature, with games of all scopes allowing you to play with friends no matter their platform of choice. Despite Mortal Kombat 11 featuring cross-play, the upcoming MK1 will not have such functionality – at least …

Despite controversy around the launch, Hogwarts Legacy released earlier this year to huge success. The game sold more than 12 million copies in its first two weeks and the numbers have only grown in the months since thanks to the launch of the PS4 and Xbox One versions, with a …

WB Games Montreal has historically resided within the shadow of Rocksteady Games – especially as both studios have worked primarily on DC properties in the past. In the wake of Gotham Knights’ less-than-stellar reception, it seems as though many of WB Montreal’s upper-level developers have left the studio. As collated …

MultiVersus launched last year and was a surprise hit for a little while. However, after selling a bunch of DLC and even hosting a couple of post-launch seasonal content updates, MultiVersus is now going offline until 2024.  Back in March, the development team confused us all by announcing plans to …

Back in February just two weeks after the game's launch, WB announced that the game had sold 12 million copies so far. Now, just as the game is launching for Xbox One and PS4, the game has surpassed 15 million copies sold to date.  Hogwarts Legacy is WB's “biggest launch …

For months, we've been hearing rumours about Mortal Kombat 12. Now, it looks like the game could be due for a reveal soon, as the series' 30th-anniversary celebrations have begun.  The 30th Anniversary video shared on the Mortal Kombat Twitter account has a brief clip towards the end, showing a …

Mortal Kombat is one of the biggest names in fighting games, with the 30-year old franchise continuing to be stronger than ever decades on from its initial release. Ahead of the expected official announcement of Mortal Kombat 12, it has been revealed that the most recent entry – MK11 – …

While many of us assumed we'd see Injustice 3 after Mortal Kombat 11, rumours in recent months have pointed to Mortal Kombat 12 instead. Now, one prominent fighting game tournament competitor has hinted that we'll see a Mortal Kombat 12 announcement as early as this week.  SonicFox is well-known in …

Last month, WB shocked MultiVersus players by announcing that the ‘beta' period for the game was ending after several months of patches, seasonal content updates and DLC character drops. With the beta ending, the game is going offline until 2024. To coincide with this, the game has now been pulled …

WarnerBros' platform-fighter MultiVersus has been available for months at this point, attracting millions of players, a chunk of whom have purchased DLC content and season passes. Now, seemingly out of nowhere, WB has announced that the ‘open beta' is ending and the game will be going offline until sometime next …

It has only been a couple of weeks since Rocksteady's gameplay reveal for Suicide Squad. That reveal drew plenty of criticism and now, it looks like Rocksteady is going to delay the game to later in the year.  While Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League was supposed to release on …

While Destiny managed to find success and usher in the age of 'live service' games, many other publishers have tried and failed to replicate that formula. While it seemed that Marvel's Avengers might have had a good shot, content exclusivity controversies, a lacking end-game and an empty post-launch roadmap meant that the game never found its feet. Now, I fear that Rocksteady is heading in the same direction with Suicide Squad.

Last year, Embracer Group acquired Middle-Earth Enterprises and along with it, the rights to The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit and other works. With the rights changing hands, many have wondered what this means for the future of LOTR in film. As it turns out, not much will be …

It is no secret that Hogwarts Legacy had a hugely successful launch, one quick look at peak concurrent player counts and deluxe edition pre-orders confirms that.

As part of Sony’s recent State of Play, fans were given an in-depth look at the upcoming Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League – a co-op action-adventure open-world game. While the title can be fully played solo – with the co-op nature merely being additive to the experience – it has …

NetherRealm Studios is one of Warner Bros. premiere video game developers, known best for their work on the Mortal Kombat and Injustice fighting game franchises. Following the launch of MK11 in 2019, NetherRealm has been slowly teasing the team’s next game. In a surprise move however, Warner Bros. themselves – …

TT Games have long been the go-to studio for the many LEGO video game adaptations released over the years, and this seems to not be changing anytime soon. That said, while the studio was reportedly working on a big Disney-focused title, the project has since been shelved, with TT Games …

Gotham Knights launched in late October to middling reviews from critics and fans alike. That being said, the team behind the game – WB Games Montreal – seems to already be hard at work on their next title. Previously, VGC reported that WB Games Montreal had begun working on their …

Gotham Knights has always been pitched as a co-op-focused adventure – the game even features four distinct main characters for players to switch between. For reasons unknown, the game does not actually include 4-player co-op despite this character setup, but a new multiplayer mode will be coming post-launch to change …

One of the core advantages to owning a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S has been the fact that games which release on these new-gen systems typically offer multiple graphics options – allowing you to play at 30fps, 60fps and even beyond, depending on the game. Unfortunately, WB have now …

WB has been a little cagey on the release date for Hogwarts Legacy, sticking to a ‘holiday 2022' release window. Typically when a release date isn't set this late, it means there is a delay. With that in mind, it shouldn't be too surprising to learn that WB's upcoming Wizarding …
