In spite of Microsoft's near two decades of neglect, fans will still show up for a Banjo Kazooie revival. Jez Corden has gone on record that Microsoft Gaming is not producing any Banjo Kazooie game. He actually made this statement in a podcast recorded last week. The latest episode of...

Rumor: No Banjo Kazooie Game Currently In Development

Nintendo, as a whole, has done many incredible things over its lifetime, and many would point to the Switch as one of its best ideas ever. The system has had numerous big titles across the first and third-party space, and the platform itself encouraged gamers to truly “play anywhere” they wanted. However, if one were to point to one of the true “downsides” of the console, they’d likely point to Nintendo Switch Online. That might seem harsh, but the reason for this is simple: it’s the service that is required to use the internet for their titles, both big and small. Without it, you can’t go online and access the servers.

Here's what Nintendo has planned. There is a ton of anticipation over the Nintendo Switch successor. This new console has been in the headlines for a long while, with no clear indication of when we’ll get our first look. Still, it’s a console that has plenty of fans waiting to get their hands on a unit. However, there is plenty of fear that getting these consoles will be tough to come by when they first hit the marketplace.

If you're still playing on PS3 or Xbox 360, it might be time for an upgrade. Electronic Arts has announced that three Battlefield titles will be delisted on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 later this month. Players on these consoles will no longer be able to purchase Battlefield 3, Battlefield 4, or Battlefield Hardline, with all DLC also being delisted. Online services for these titles will end on November 7, but those who own the games can still enjoy single-player content.

The newest gacha title from HoYoverse drops tomorrow. The newest gacha-infused action RPG from Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail developer HoYoverse is gearing up for its July 4 release. Zenless Zone Zero promises to pull in record numbers for the Chinese company, as the title saw over 36 million people pre-registering by the end of May. Those interested in the game can now pre-load it on their platform of choice, and doing so will net players some helpful rewards.

This next story might seem a bit odd given the timing of certain things and events, but Nintendo made a post about it, so we know it’s real. The Splatoon 3 community firmly believes that the game is nearing the end of its gaming life. The title is currently doing a “Summer Knights” event with a Splatfest that is not that far away, but many feel that in August or September, the game’s run of updates and events will cease. The series does have a habit of ending its “cycle” after about two years, which would be in September 2024. However, that isn’t stopping Nintendo from trying to make more sales of the game before that happens.

Yeah, don't do that in public. When it comes to fans’ love of video games, it can drive them to do many cool and wondrous things. It can lead them to want to make video games themselves or do things like fan art or cosplay so that they can “emulate” or “recreate” something they love about the games. It can even lead to them buying various reproduction items of characters and items from the titles they dig. We’ve all seen gaming statues or versions of legendary weapons being sold at things like Comic-Cons, and The Legend of Zelda has had that happen multiple times with things like the Master Sword and Hylian Shield. Among other items from the series, of course.

Try it out, see if it works for you. While we’re entering a more lax period of 2024 right now, at least before a slew of other games drop as the end of the year draws ever closer, we can look back and realize just how grand the opening few months of 2024 were for gaming kind. After all, the titles that were released came from multiple companies and featured all sorts of genres to partake in. There were courtroom dramas, fighting games, a dual tale about former Yakuza members trying to make a new life for themselves, and, of course, an RPG remake. Oh, Dragon’s Dogma 2 was there as well, wasn’t it?

In a sudden, surreal twist, Walgreens recently announced that it'd be closing many of its U.S. stores. Per CNN Business, Walgreens made this decision in an effort to "reset." While a concrete number wasn't disclosed, Walgreens' CEO, Tim Wentworth, told analysts "changes are imminent." This evidently includes roughly 25% of Walgreens' 8,600 locations. Wentworth also mentioned, in consideration of some locations' unprofitability, that the strategic review of the company will "include the closure of a significant portion of these underperforming stores."

There’s a danger to making certain kinds of video games; one of the biggest ones is that if the game relies on a heavy online component, and that component is tested by both other players and the servers themselves, you run the risk of hitting major performance issues. Such an issue is hitting Arrowhead Game Studios with their title, Helldivers 2. You might recall that this game came out of the gate hot and boasted impressive results on both PC and PS5, to the point where Sony almost nuked it on Steam because of its account requirements. However, now it faces a much more personal threat.

She's still Geralt's true love, and this wasn't canon. Following the release of The Witcher 3 REDkit, an official mod editor for the popular RPG, players have discovered plenty of cut content from the game’s ending. This includes one particularly heartwrenching scene in which Yennefer betrays the Lodge of Sorceresses to the Nilfgaardians to help Ciri.

All the buildup to Dragon Ball Sparking Zero has been positive so far. The trailers for the game highlight how this is the true “spiritual successor” to the Tenkaichi games of the past, and it looks to embrace the many parts of the franchise’s lore, including bringing in lesser-known characters that some people wouldn’t immediately recognize. Furthermore, the team has stated that the choices you make in terms of who you fight with in the game will affect how likely you are to win at times. That being said, many people are noting that a key game mechanic that has been shown off not only weighs down the title’s accuracy but also makes the game look bad.

It's uncertain when everyone's favorite wizard will make his way into the fighting title. MultiVersus returned to online storefronts in May after a year offline for fine-tuning. New updates keep coming, but the newest one is hiding something strange, according to dataminers. In early versions of the game, Gandalf from The Lord of the Rings was featured as a playable character–not only that, the legendary wizard was featured front and center.
