All Zombies Must Die!, the new co-op zombie shooter from doublesix, hasn’t been getting enough attention. It will release this year, after all, but just barely: look for it on PlayStation Network starting December 27 (January 4 in Europe) and on Xbox Live Arcade December 28. Undead fatigue is at an all-time high, so I can see why this game might not immediately seem noteworthy. The zombie slaying is solid enough, and if you are one to get pulled in by XP pop-ups, you’ll soon find yourself wanting to play one more quest....

Atlus is one such example publisher who,in a Famitsu article, teased some unannounced games that are waiting in the wings. According to Atlus, (and translated by Siliconera) 2022 will see the company release several yet-to-be-revealed “surprise titles” into its bursting catalog of modern classics....

You can catch the full patch notes below, including an overview of the new nighttime map Prise de Tahure, but the crucial bit here is the introduction ofPremium Trials. With this system, DICE is letting non-pass holders play the DLC maps without having to pay up — for a limited time, anyway....

If you aren’t careful while you’re there during the daytime, you can burn up quickly and receive a game over. Here’s how to avoid that by using the best heat resistance recipes inTears of the Kingdom....

In a BREAKINGBlades of Timeupdate, publisher Konami hasjust announced the game, despite it allegedly releasing three days ago. According to the company, the game is nowofficiallyavailable. Perhaps that means more than New Jersey will have a copy! The real gem of this story, however, is the headline of the press release email, which has been sent to the media. This is what I got in my inbox moments ago: KONAMI ANNOUNCES BLADES OF TIKONAMI ANNOUNCES BLADES OF TIME NOW AVAILABLE ME NOW AVAILABLE...

Coming in November in Europe and 2020 in the US Bubble Bobbleis one of the first series of games my wife and I bonded with when we met. There’s something just so wholesome about those little dragons (who were actually human boys!), and the level-by-level setup was much more enticing than the average arcade style game.Bubble Bobblein turn led to my love of many similar games likeSnow Bros, and I’ll always be grateful for it....

Color me skeptical Listen, I’m not usually one to propagate conspiracy theories. Give me that 5G network, 6G even. I hang out inDenver International Airportall the time. Elvis, 2Pac, and Andy Kaufman are definitely all done and dusted. But can we really trust these screenshots for the firstDoom Eternalcampaign add-on? Here’s a comprehensive list of what’s missing: Doom Slayer, guns, demons, violence, John Romero’s head. That’s pretty much everything that makes itDoom!...

3:00am in video game form Whenever I watch footage ofHylics 2, a self-described “recreational program with light JRPG elements,” I feel like I’m peering into someone’s dreams. And it’s not just the lavish visuals, surreal as they most certainly are. Every ounce of this game feels detached from reality. Its whole vibe is otherworldly. Today’s trailer shows more kooky enemy designs, some side-scrolling platformer and dungeon-crawler segments, and a bit of exploration aboard an airship....

Okay, so maybe “pretty” isn’t the word you’d use to describe aResident Eviltitle. But hey, you have to admit,it’s lookinggood. Screenshots from the newestResident Evildon’t reveal much about the title, but it looks promising, and at least it’s a more serious entry for the new handheld, compared to most of Nintendo’s more lighthearted games. According toCubed3 forums, Capcom’s newest title in the series,Resident Evil Revelations,includes such favorites as Chris Redfield, and what appears to be his younger sister, Claire....

Ubisoft just revealed a new exclusive Wii U game entitledZombiU. No gameplay footage was shown, but the title raises a lot of questions. For example, how much is tuition at Zombi U? What’s the employment percentage upon graduation? Does Zombi U have a solid sports program? These are important questions that need answers. Also, five bucks says this was the game teased during theNintendo Direct streamyesterday. From the sounds of this interview withVentureBeat, I’d say the odds are in my favor....
