A developer who worked onCyberpunk 2077has explained why fans shouldn’t expect a new game plus mode for the game. ICYMI:Gears of War: E-Daywas announced last night. Basically, what it boils down to is that the title provides a wide range of choices that are often dependant on your background and your stats. The developer believes that it’s better to have players create a new character and find out what they can do within the game than simply use the same character over and over, and it’s also much better to do it that way for difficulty balancing reasons....

There’s only so many times I can be told that if I die I’ll lose all my souls, or runes, or whatever the newest games uses to level up my character.

However, it would be fair to say that few (includingRockstar Games) could have predicted the juggernaut that it would evolve into today following the launch ofGTA IIIin 2001 for thePlayStation2....

Mass Effect 5 fans relieved by new gameplay teaser trailer

I think it’s fair to say that BioWare fans everywhere were less than enamoured with the most recent trailer for the newly renamedDragon Age: The Veilguard. Released as part of Summer Game Fest, the grand reveal trailer opted for a tone not exactly in line with the dark fantasy RPG series we’re used to. With bright colours, lots of jokes, and David Bowie’sHeroesproviding the musical accompaniment, it was… not the vibe we’d been expecting....
