Guoba is Xiangling’s adorable companion who can be summoned through her Elemental Skill. While he seems like a harmless panda-like creature unable to speak with humans, he seems to be far more than meets the eye. Is Guoba the Stove God in Genshin Impact? Guoba was once known as Marchosius, one of the many gods who were well acquainted with Morax during Liyue’s early history. He was largely known as a friendly god who loved humans, turning himself into minions that warmed up homes by lighting up stoves and helping Liyue’s inhabitants cook....

Bungie has been dropping plenty of teasers and pieces of information leading up to the release of The Witch Queen. Some of these teasers were released over on the Destiny 2 Instagram account. It consisted of two Hive transmissions coming from someone named Immaru. Here is who Immaru is and what role they might have in The Witch Queen. In the brief transmission, players can hear a character named Immaru relaying information to the various Hive forces in Savathûn’s Throne World....

The Hockey Mask limited item in the Roblox Avatar Shop received an unwelcome cosmetic update. Many Robloxians and limited item collectors have expressed disappointment in the new design. The original design resembled the classic Jason Voorhees hockey mask from the Friday the 13th slasher series, which might be the reason for this new redesign. While this isn’t confirmed, content creators like DeeterPlays speculate that the reason behind the Hockey Mask change was all legal business....

This is Activision-Blizzard’s way of saying they are combating toxicity. In a series of updates from Blizzard, players are going to be subject to some stricter rules following the launch of Overwatch 2. First, we’re going to have to link our phone numbers to play the game. While it may cause some confusion and frustration from the player base, we have also been informed that in-game comms will be recorded. As that might be a point of contention for many, why exactly is Overwatch 2 recording voice chat?...

Like a handful of you reading this article, I recently watched Netflix and Riot Games’ collaborative project Arcane. For those unaware, Arcane tells an original story, focusing on two of League of Legends’ champions, Vi and Jinx. Oh, and there’s a handful of others such as Caitlyn, Jayce, Viktor, and more. My expectations were that of cautious optimism, as so many video game adaptations like it fail to satisfy the tight rope of new and veteran fans of the source material....

It seemed like immediately following Nintendo’s announcement and reveal of the Wii U, both Microsoft and Sony had their answers waiting. Sony boasts that the PS Vita is the ultimate companion device for the PlayStation 3, and can perform the tasks that the Wii U’s tablet can. Microsoft on other hand has taken a software approach to things, requiring that Xbox 360 players own a tablet to take advantage of their new SmartGlass technology....

Outriders launched on Day One on Game Pass for Xbox, and players are wondering if Outriders will be on PC Game Pass in the future. It is a fair question, as it’s never nice to jump into a game paying full price and have it show up for free shortly afterward. Currently, neither Microsoft of Square Enix has expressed plans to bring the game to the PC version of Microsoft’s Game Pass service....

Following the 2022 Microsoft and Bethesda Showcase, Persona 5 Royal, Persona 4 Golden, and Persona 3 Portable were announced for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC. This was shocking not only because it marked the introduction of the series on Xbox — but there was also no mention of PlayStation ports on Atlus’ social media accounts following the Microsoft press conference. With all of that said, is there a chance any of the recent Persona games could come to PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5?...

As a weekly ritual, Microsoft has released the Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22581 for both the Dev and Beta channels, becoming the first Windows 11 update available for both the channels. This setup will now be followed from now on. While the features released for the Dev channel aren’t new, they are for the Beta channel as it is not the first in line to get new features the Dev channel usually gets....

Back at last year’s E3, Microsoft featured CD Projekt Red’s The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in it conference and the message was clear. Much like Sony with Destiny, this game was going to be a big deal. At the time, some wondered if Microsoft would have exclusive rights to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt or at the minimum, some form of timed exclusivity. Speaking to Eurogamer, CD Projekt Red co-founder Marcin Iwinski said there will be “no exclusive content for any platform”....

To put all my cards on the table right from the start, I am a huge fan of the rebooted Wolfenstein series. I like pretty much everything about the game, from the over the top supporting case and set pieces, to the subtle ripples of BJ Blazkowics’ personality and struggles. I like watching the big Nazi killing lug be so damn good and pull a Nazi’s skull out of their head, but also lamenting that he has to do so in the first place....

The new Dragonflight expansion for World of Warcraft is right around the corner and it is bringing a lot of new content with it. One of the big new additions to World of Warcraft is going to be the new Evoker class. This will be the first new class added to the game since the release of the Death Knight class back in Wrath of the Lich King. Let’s go over what we know about the Evoker so far and what you can expect from it in World of Warcraft Dragonflight....

The revolutionary new addition to THQ’s distinguished WWE videogame portfolio and debut release from the company’s San Diego-based studio, WWE All Stars will bridge generations of WWE enthusiasts and casual followers alike with a fast-paced experience inside the virtual ring.

The announcement of Xbox Fanfest E3 2017 promises early access to the new console as well, so if you’re in the LA area you’d better read on to see how to get tickets....

The Nintendo Wii quickly paved the way for motion gaming and Microsoft answered with their own peripheral in the Kinect. Full of potential, Microsoft mostly squandered it on the Xbox 360 and has not done a good job at utilizing it well on the Xbox One either, even with such a big push for it at the start that saw it being bundled with every console. Many have felt that Microsoft may just abandon the Kinect all together, but Phil Spencer has come out and dismissed those ideas entirely....

Last week gave us the fantastic Xbox Live Ultimate Games Sale, which was full of tons of recent and high profile games. Due to this, we were bound to see a dropoff in this week’s Xbox Live offerings, which is exactly what happened. A few of the titles on sale through Xbox Live are available on both Xbox One and Xbox 360, including Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, Sleeping Dogs, and Thief....

One of the biggest E3 showcases has been scheduled. This year’s E3 is still a couple of months away, but the big companies that plan to take part in it have already been announcing exactly when fans can expect to watch their E3 showcases. Today (April 16), Microsoft revealed their E3 timeslot, which traditionally tends to be one of the biggest shows of the season, at least in terms of pure number of announcements....

Yakuza: Like a Dragon has finally been released on western shores! Though the game massively changes the formula of the action game, we all know and love, into a turn-based RPG, with jobs, stats, and fanfares! However, this isn’t a bad thing, as it show’s that flipping a game genre can work in certain situations, and in Yakuza: Like a Dragon, it still has everything whacky and zany about the series but just in a different style!...

Enemy weakness are finally made clear Yakuza: Like a Dragon has received another update, once again bundling gameplay tweaks and freebies. Update 1.03 says goodbye to pesky issues and aligns the Western release with its Japanese counterpart. Despite the Japanese version hosting weakness icons for enemies, the subsequent Western launch was void of the tactical information. Exploiting enemy vulnerabilities boiled down to blind trial and error, which could become an issue in the more difficult stages later in the game....
