Feb 24, 2020, 6:05 PM Fyra Frost

CD Projekt RED is quite determined to make Cyberpunk 2077 such a huge success that it will make the number of sales of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt look tiny in comparison. It seems that not even the release of the next generation of consoles is going to stand in their way, and they have announced that all those who own Cyberpunk 2077 on Xbox One will receive a free upgrade for the game when it's...

Things started to come alive with the Stadia community blog post that listed Baldur's Gate III among the games slated for 2020, and Larian saying that it was a mistake. Then, last week, we had confirmation...

Black Desert Online is adding cross-play for consoles

Feb 21, 2020, 9:21 AM Fyra Frost

Black Desert Online is an MMORPG that has very little to do with most of the others in the market. With its advanced graphics and dynamic combat, it's more similar to an open-world action game than most of the other games in the genre. The combat in Black Desert Online is skill-based but it's also highly dependant on gear. The game also features a player-driven economy and detailed trade and crafting systems that allow players to create and...
