Re-Boot Camp includes both Advance Wars and Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising. Both are absolute classics - brightly coloured turn-based gems that are fiercely replayable. The remake has a chunky 3D art style that a lot of people find hard to love, but it’s not the only new element, by the sounds of things. Nintendo also announced that the COs will now be voiced, you’ll be able to fast-forward gameplay and reset moves, and there are a handful of additional modes too....

That being said, Vikander is just waiting for the sequel to be given the green light once more. “I think Misha [Green, who is currently attached to the project as its writer and director] and I have been ready, so it’s kind of in somebody else’s hands, to be honest,” she shared. While Vikander admitted that she “can’t really say” all that much about what Green has in store for Lara’s next big screen outing, she does say she is “excited to show the world”....

To celebrate the anniversary, players will be able to earn 22 items, “including two event packs and ten apex packs”. Players will also receive five rewards for logging in the first time, although exactly what these are remains a mystery. The event is also bringing back 24 skins that previously appeared in the game, with a splash of red and gold paint. Unlocking all of these will earn players 150 heirloom shards - although judging by previous collection events, this could be rather pricey....

The update will add 4K output and HDR, as well as 60 fps, higher resolution maps, and greater level of detail distance (though not all the improvements are available on Xbox Series S). Further additions coming soon include 120fps, more visual and audio improvements, and haptic feedback and adaptive triggers on PS5. The update comes as part of a new patch launching The Warriors Collection event, which introduces a brand new set of 24 themed, limited-time cosmetics....

It boasts all your favourites, such as I’m Your GPU, Memories of Play, and all variants of CPU Plaza. If you’ve yet to give the free PS5-exclusive Astro’s Playroom a shot, you’re really missing out. “While promising a glimpse of the future, Astro’s Playroom is a gloriously old-fashioned thing at heart, a characterful, character-driven platformer that has been built to showcase a particular piece of hardware,” Martin wrote in Eurogamer’s Astro Playroom review....

Auto Chess MOBA uses the heroes from Auto Chess, all of which will be free to play with. Dragonest made the announcement in a video published earlier in January (thanks, Kotaku). There’s a wonderful circle of life element to this announcement: in early 2019, a group of Chinese developers collectively known as Drodo Studio released Dota Auto Chess, a custom game mode for Valve’s MOBA, Dota 2. Dota Auto Chess exploded in popularity, sparking a race to release competing auto battlers at a raft of PC gaming companies....

Here are the best headsets that are available to purchase right now: With different physical designs, screens, tracking solutions and price points, there’s plenty to discuss about each option.

That’s according to the game’s director Aaron Keller, who posted on Twitter early this morning (UK time) to say his team would “work throughout the night” to get the game back online. “We’re steadily making progress on server issues and stability, as well as working through a second DDoS attack,” Keller wrote. “We’re all hands on deck and will continue to work throughout the night. Thank you for your patience - we’ll share more info as it becomes available....

Following statements from the likes of Insomniac Games and Sucker Punch, Sony developers including Bend Studio and London Studio have posted similar support, saying, “Reproductive freedom and bodily autonomy are human rights”. The Last of Us developer Naughty Dog shared a lengthier message on Twitter, saying it “believes reproductive freedom and bodily autonomy are basic human rights and essential to the health and wellbeing of everyone.” “We will continue to uphold those values and actively support all our employees in receiving the care they need and want”, it added....

The video, below, reveals how Rambo looks in Activision’s mega-shooter. We see the ’80s action hero leap out of a chopper at the start of a Warzone game, parachute into the action, and use his iconic bow and arrow. There’s a lot of shouting while firing guns, as you’d expect. There’s a lot relating to Die Hard here, too. There’s a brief shot of what looks like Nakatomi Plaza in Warzone: And a lift falling: And here’s a shot of some first-person crawling through a vent: It’s hard to know exactly how this will factor into the battle royale....

All the new information comes via the PlayStation Blog, in which Vanguard developer Sledgehammer offers details on the game’s PS5 DualSense wireless controller support alongside a look at four Operators, complete with introductory trailers for each. Two of the Operators - Cameroonian-British paratrooper Sgt. Arthur Kingsley and Soviet sniper Lt. Polina Petrova, both playable in Vanguard’s single-player and multiplayer modes - have been seen before, but Sledgehammer has also now revealed two new multiplayer-only Operators, Daniel Take Yatsu and Padmavati Balan, explaining how each fits into the narrative world....

In a blog post today, the publisher said its new season launch was being postponed by two weeks, from 2nd to 14th February. “Currently, our community is experiencing issues across Call of Duty: Vanguard, Warzone Pacific, and Modern Warfare,” Activision wrote. “We feel your frustrations and hear you loud and clear.” The delay comes at an extraordinary time for Activision, following months of revelations around its workplace and allegations of assault and harassment among staff, and during a period of ongoing worker action in which the QA team at Raven Software stopped work after some were told they were being let go....

Accessibility is always something I’ve found myself advocating for wherever I go. As a Deaf person who wears hearing aids, I’ve always advocated for myself in life: from working around barriers during my live TV career, to sharing my experiences online, to educating strangers who ask questions and desire to prod my hearing aid. The shift to professionally advocating for accessibility to the extent I am now was mostly driven by joining Can I Play That?...

Expect updates on what’s next for Resident Evil Village and Monster Hunter Rise, as well as a look ahead to July’s Monster Hunter Stories 2 and The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles. So, what do we expect for Resident Evil Village? Well, Capcom is yet to talk about post-launch single-player support for the game, if there is any. More likely, perhaps, we may get a glimpse of new bits and pieces coming to its PVE Mercenaries mode....

In a note to press, the company said it was made aware of emails in circulation that pretend to contain early access invitations for the hotly-anticipated horror game, with the sender address displayed as “no-reply(at)capcom(dot)com”. “We want to inform you that these messages are NOT from Capcom and appear to be phishing attempts by an unauthorised third-party,” Capcom said. “If you have received such a message, please DO NOT download any files or reply, and delete the message immediately....

Yet for some corners of the internet, the eyebrow-raising Mouthful Mode in Kirby and the Forgotten Land really stood out as ripe for innuendo. The mode lets Kirby inhale some impressively sized objects, from a car to a cone, a vending machine, and more. Kirby fans have since taken over the internet with their jokes, memes, and fan art of “Carby”. For some, the announcement of more DLC for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was the biggest surprise....

While CD Projeckt’s development roadmap for Cyberpunk 2077 has never been overly fond of specifics, the studio began 2021 by announcing its troubled RPG would receive “multiple updates and improvements” - including free DLC and the game’s long-awaited enhanced edition for next-gen consoles - throughout this year. Last week, however, CD Projekt announced what many had already surmised after the studio’s own lack of certainty was revealed: that Cyberpunk’s PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions would no longer launch this year and were now targeting “the first quarter of 2022”....

Earlier this year, Bungie alleged copyright infringement and breach of contract against AimJunkies for its Destiny 2 “hacks”, but the court dismissed much of the case. Bungie was allowed more time to reinstate its case and a few weeks later alleged that AimJunkies had reverse-engineered and copied the software code for Destiny 2.
