The Dark Knight is on the verge of losing Gotham, according to writer James Tynion IV, who is kicking off his second year on Batman with his most ambitious story yet, one that is as much the epic tale of an entire city as it is an intimate look at its heroes.

Each companion in the Fallout series is unique, though some are better (or simply more personable) than the other companions. The companions in Fallout 4 are definitely among some of the most fleshed-out and interesting. Companions found across the Commonwealth can complement both morally upstanding and evil playthroughs, and also offer unique perks and abilities that can help the player as they explore Boston. While there is nothing wrong with any of the companions found in the game, some are bound to fit a given player’s play style more....

Knockout City is a top-notch, highly polished, and downright fun online multiplayer dodgeball experience. One of the best aspects of Knockout City, aside from the stellar gameplay, is the fun unlockables. Many of the unlockables, such as outfits, come from the Street Rank battle pass sort of system that is free to all players. However, many outfit styles are unlocked via style chips. The style chips can be obtained through the Streek Rank pass or from the in-game store....

The Kung Fu-inspired post-apocalyptic rodent-starring epic of Biomutant has proven to be a rather interesting experience, to say the least. Reviews are mixed across the board with many complaining about wonky combat and poor character development. But there is no denying both how beautiful the world is and how awesome the action becomes over time. That action, however, would not be anything without the excellent gunplay and the interesting weapon choices woven into the experience....

Black Adam, the long-gestating Dwayne Johnson DC Extended Universe entry, may have started out as a cold-introduction Shazam spinoff affixed to the stardom of a huge headliner, but the film is poised to become a watershed entry in Warner Bros’—to put it generously—confusing cinematic continuity. Besides having today’s biggest action star atop its marquee, the film is set to bring several other notable DC Comics characters to life on the big screen, and, from a technical standpoint, operates on a stunning scale, as Johnson himself has been teasing with a new look at his onscreen costume....

The Call of Duty series’ Zombies mode stands as one of the most popular and iconic aspects of the series, ever since 2008’sWorld at War.

But for this title, the studio has decided to do something a little different regarding the Easter eggs and other secrets that can be found in the mode....

Like it or hate it, there is no denying that the Demon Hunter class was released in a state of overpowered absurdity. Blizzard has announced that Patch 17.6 will be released for Hearthstone on July 14, and with it, a fourth attempt to nerf the newest class from out of its top spot. Rogues are also seeing a nerf to their main Galakrond deck, though that feels like more of a quality of life improvement for everyone else rather than attempting to curtail too strong of a deck....
