22-Apr-2021, 7:00 pm Fyra Frost News
Microsoft has published a list of games that do not require you to pay an Xbox Live Gold subscription, not even to play online.
For some time now, the online subscription for Microsoft's consoles, Xbox Live Gold, has been increasingly shunned by gamers. The discontent had risen a notch when Microsoft announced at the beginning of the year a price increase for its subscription, planning to raise the monthly price from 6.99€ to 8.99€ and making it much less competitive with the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate in which the Gold is included. It is not impossible that this move was an attempt to push...

Focus Home Interactive takes a new approach at the Warhammer 40K franchise with a new first-person shooter, Necromunda: Hired Gun.
Games Workshop's tabletop miniature games have been a source of inspiration for many video game developers. From Total War: Warhammer to Dawn of War, there are plenty of ways of immersing yourself into the universes of Warhammer Fantasy and Warhammer 40K through video games, and each of them offers a different perspective of the conflict between the forces of order and chaos. But on this occasion, we are specifically talking about Necromunda, a miniature game that focuses on the...

Do not miss Resident Evil RE: Verse open beta and give a try to the new multiplayer experience that Capcom has prepared.
Capcom took a completely new approach to the Resident Evil series with the addition of a multiplayer mode when Resident Evil 3 was released. We thought that Resident Evil: Resistance was meant to be a standalone game that would put you in the shoes of a group of survivors trapped in an isolated facility by an evil mastermind. The game was announced as a multiplayer cooperative asymmetrical experience in which survivors would have to escape from their imprisonment...

20-Apr-2021, 6:30 pm Fyra Frost
Developer Double Fine confirms that Psychonauts 2 is still in the works and we will be able to play it this year.
The first installment of the Psychonauts series celebrated its 15th anniversary last September, but fans have been waiting for its sequel for more than five years. Psychonauts 2 was indeed officially announced back in 2015 at The Game Awards ceremony, but it's one of those games whose development has not been easy. While the first Psychonauts game received excellent reviews from the players, it was a real commercial failure for Double Fine. It was difficult to make a...

20-Apr-2021, 3:30 pm Fyra Frost
You now have access to all the DLC released to date if you own Max Payne 3 or L.A. Noire on PC.
Sometimes it's quite difficult to understand the reason behind some actions when it comes to video game developers. What happened yesterday with Rockstar Games could be considered a good example. Both Max Payne 3 and L.A. Noire are games that have been available for a long while. The first one was released in 2012 and as the third installment in the popular third-person shooting series, it follows the adventures of  Max Payne as he is pulled into a war between rival...

The Elder Scrolls Online changes its loot boxes system
19-Apr-2021, 2:00 pm Fyra Frost
A new gameplay system will give you access to any loot box item in The Elder Scrolls Online without having to pay real money for it.
Loot boxes are quite a controversial feature in most cases and they are even considered as gambling in certain countries, but they are a common way of getting additional income for game developers. Paying real money for a chance of getting an exclusive cosmetic item or a minor boost is something that most players agree with, but when we are talking of items that give you a certain advantage in combat all alarms seem to trigger for most people, especially...

The first expansion for Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Wrath of the Druids, needs more polishing and will launch later than expected.
Even though Ubisoft has made quite a good job with Assassin's Creed Valhalla it's having some problems meeting the schedule with its upcoming DLC. Wrath of the Druids was announced in February along with other post-launch content that would be included in Assassin's Creed Valhalla Season Pass.

Some job offers published by Cloud Chamber reveal that Bioshock 4 could take place in an open-world setting.
As the spiritual successor to the System Shock series, BioShock caught the attention of many players when it was released in 2007. The original game was followed by two sequels, BioShock 2 and BioShock: Infinite, whose also had a very warm welcome, but we have been eagerly waiting for a new installment since 2013. In December 2019, 2K Games had announced that the development of such a game was underway, the one that is for now soberly called...

2K Games announces the return of the WWE series with WWE 2K22.
All fans of the WWE 2K series have had a hard time during the last couple of years. The launch of WWE 2K20 was a disaster and the game soon became an endless source of memes due to an incredibly high amount of graphics and gameplay bugs. It was just ridiculous and so bad that publisher 2K Games decided not to launch last year's installment. Although most fans were quite disappointed, their trust in the developer was at...

09-Apr-2021, 5:30 pm Fyra Frost
Arkane will not meet the schedule for the launch of Deathloop and we will have to wait a few more months to play it.
It was received with enthusiasm during E3 2019 with a trailer full of colors and music, worthy of a Tarantino film. Deathloop is the new baby of the Lyon-based studio Arkane, which is responsible for the Dishonored series, Prey and Wolfenstein: Youngblood.

DotEmu announced a new DLC for Streets of Rage 4 and also a free update with additional content.
Old classics never die, and the Streets of Rage series is one of those. Beat 'em up video games were quite popular in the '90s and Street of Rage was one of the most popular series in the genre, along with others like Double Dragon or Final Fight.
