The Outer Worlds is by no means a short game – GamesRadar’s Alex Avard says you should expect to dedicate about 25-30 hours for the campaign. For what it’s worth, speedrunner It’s Jabo wasn’t aiming for 100% completion, instead choosing to rush through the campaign as efficiently as possible. The sub-25-minute run comes shortly after an also-impressive 31-minute run by the same speedrunner. In that previous video, It’s Jabo said it was an early run and that more attempts were to come. Only two d

Yet, during the planning stages, many of them were questioning whether Todd Phillips’ Joker should have so much… Joker. However, according to reports, Leto was “upset” by the decision to make a solo Joker movie about someone else’s incarnation of the character. The Oscar-winning allegedly asked his manager to go to Warner Bros.’ parent company to nix the Joker movie. Speaking with GamesRadar+ earlier this year, Phillips indicated that Warner and DC wanted less connections to the comic books in

The new Star Wars trilogy – slated to begin in 2022 – has lost its creators. Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and DB Weiss have parted ways with Lucasfilm due to scheduling conflicts caused by their reported $200m Netflix deal. So we are regretfully stepping away.”While Benioff and Weiss didn’t reveal what they had planned in a galaxy far, far away, they reaffirmed their love for Star Wars, stating: “When George Lucas built [Star Wars], he built us too.

Ubisoft is committed to improving Ghost Recon Breakpoint and they have a plan to do so, as detailed in a comprehensive development blog . In addition to the chief priority of improving technical performance, Ubisoft details how they plan on continuing to deliver post-launch content and improving the in-game economy, AI teammates, and customization options. Ghost Recon Breakpoint didn’t have the smoothest launch, to put it kindly, and in the weeks since launch has been the subject of enduring cri

In a new launch trailer, Need for Speed Heat dazzles in its urban aesthetic; pink smoke spewing from tailpipes, LED screens throwing out blinding shades of pink and blue, and twisting streets glinting wet. Need for Speed Heat quite aptly takes place in a fictional take on Miami, Florida called Palm City, where a busy city entrenched in city mod culture make Heat at the very least look more like a Need for Speed game than recent entries. EA recently shared some of their inspirations behind the wo

The second and final trailer for The Mandalorian sees Pedro Pascal’s eponymous bounty hunter wrestle with Trandoshans, stormtroopers, and a blurrg, while Werner Herzog narrates the action.

Fallout 76 is certainly no stranger to controversy, but usually it’s the sort that unites the community against the developer or publisher.

The Osaka, Japan office of Square Enix recently listed three new positions for its primary development division, all connected to some sort of HD Kingdom Hearts project. Google Translate and my own remedial Japanese skills confirm this, which raises the question: what is Square Enix working on? Kingdom Hearts 3 was released at the start of this year on January 25. That said, the fact that they specify HD development seems weird, and could suggest Square Enix has something new in store. However,
