Overwatch's next big update may be shaking up how players queue for games, but we might also be getting a new hero soon, judging by a recent teaser. In a tweet today, the official Overwatch account posted a video that begins as one of the team's regular "Developer Update" videos, but is quickly usurped by a vortex that seems to suck in Blizzard vice president Jeff Kaplan, followed by cryptic ima... more.

It's a bit of in-between week, as the Overwatch League takes a break and we wait for Evo to reignite passions for fighting games. That doesn't mean there aren't some big events this weekend! Far from it.  Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is having its big Intel Extreme Masters event in Chicago, and with only four teams left, we're in for nothing but the best facing off. (Stream / Schedule) ... more.

Gearbox has posted an open invitation for what it's calling a "Celebration of Togetherness" event for next week, which could be hinting at the announcement of crossplay. The company posted the announcement with a wedding invitation-like image, announcing the event would be on borderlands.com at 7 a.m. Pacific Time on July 16. https://twitter.com/Borderlands/status/1149679841278480384 Gearbox ... more.

One of the many features Bungie highlighted in its recent vi-doc unveiling Destiny 2's Shadowkeep expansion was finishing moves. The company didn't totally explain how these attacks would work then. Speaking with Polygon recently, however, Destiny 2 general manager Mark Noseworthy and franchise director Luke Smith outlined how the feature will work. “When enemies get below a certain healt... more.

It's playoff weekend baby! We have lots of leagues in that stage today and tomorrow, while fighting game tournaments (which are essentially always in playoff mode) are popping off with Evo just around the corner. The stage-three playoffs of the Overwatch League are this weekend, and guess what? The Shanghai Dragons are playing today! We also have two more matches tomorrow. (Stream / Sched... more.

Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth has earned a reputation as one of the better Digimon games in recent years, but so far it's been confined to Sony consoles. Next year, that's changing. Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth: Complete Edition (notice the change of colon location), brings the original Cyber Sleuth and its sequel, Hacker's Memory, to Switch and PC (via Steam) on October 18, 2020. Bandai Namco did n... more.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses' director,  Toshiyuki Kasukihara, recently spoke with French gaming site jeuxvideo.com about the upcoming game's length. Kasukihara said that without skipping dialogue or cutscenes, just completing one of the game's houses took about 80 hours.

The Division 2 is packed with missions to complete, projects to grind, and world tiers to overcome, but once you clear the checklist and enter the predictable endgame loot grind, the decaying Washington D.C. streets still beckon with their mysteries.  Intrepid investigators have cracked a lot of The Division 2's secrets already. Several ciphers scattered throughout the world revealed secre... more.

Super Mario Maker 2 came out yesterday, and you know what? We think it's pretty good. One curious feature about the Switch sequel, however, is that when you have the console undocked, you can only use the touch screen to edit levels (yep, you can't use the buttons and joysticks located on the sides of the thing). This might prompt you to use your sweaty, grubby digits, to build levels (you monster... more.

Destiny has a wealth of stories and lore to pour through, but it's often buried in weapon descriptions and disparate passages. That can give it an alluring, mysterious air, but also makes some of it hard to parse. That's why Bungie released an entire tome packed with lore entries late last year, and it's also why it's releasing a follow-up in October of this year. Pre-orders for Destiny Grimoire... more.
