  Sony and Sucker Punch have announced today Ghost of Tsushima: Legends a free piece of DLC coming to their game later this fall. It's a new online cooperative multiplayer mode. It's a new experience outside of the standalone game and does not feature Jin. "We designed Legends to be an exclusively cooperative gameplay experience. You’ll be able to partner up with friends or via online matchmaking and play Legends in groups of 2-4 players. Each player can choose from one of four different character classes: the Samurai, Hunter, Ronin, or Assassin. Each class has unique advantages and abilities that we’ll reveal in the future." Ghost of Tsushima: Legends offers a Survival mode with enemies getting increasingly more difficult as you progress including a new Oni enemies with supernatural abilities. In addition, there will be a 4-player Raid made available after Legends gets released. Checkout the trailer and press release for further details. I'm excited to try this

  In a move that I didn't see coming at all, Microsoft and 343 Industries have decided to delay the release of Halo Infinite into 2021. Halo Infinite was slated to be one of the titles available within the launch window of the Xbox Series X and marks new direction for the Halo Series. Studio head Chris Lee sites development challenges including the current COVID pandemic among other factors. What does this mean for Microsoft and 343 Industries? Well I'd say it's not a good thing. Looking at the current list of games for the Series X launch window there's no killer game, no system seller--so to speak. Halo Infinite was supposed to be just that, but with that now being pushed to 2021 Microsoft may have just shot themselves in the foot. That's just my opinion; I don't see Microsoft moving consoles without a game that will really pull gamers in. They've been pushing Game Pass hard but is that enough to have gamers go after the Xbox Series X? Only time will tell.

CD PROJEKT RED have officially announced the date and time of their next Night City Wire episode. It's set for this coming Monday, August 10th at 6PM CEST on their Twitch channel ( twitch.tv/cdprojektred ). This time around they will focus on Weapons and "Refused's transformations into SAMURAI". I have no idea what that means but I can wait to see what they have in store. Courtesy of Games News Network

Assassin's Creed Valhalla is the next installment of the Assassin's Creed franchise and it looks like it will add more to this iteration. Combat is evolving, you get to establish and build a settlement and fully customize your character, male or female. It even goes back to earlier AC titles by bringing back some of the stealth options. I'm still playing the previous Assassin Creed titles and I'm looking forward to venturing into the Viking realm with this new game. Assassin's Creed Valhalla is set to be released on November 17th.

Far Cry 6 was leaked a few days ago but here we have the world premiere of the new game which starts Breaking Bad actor  Giancarlo Esposito. He plays Anton Castillo and this is one hell of an introduction for the character. He's both menacing and a wee-bit crazy. You can look forward to this game releasing in early 2021 and staying tuned for more details to follow. Courtesy of Games News Network ---- Video thanks to Ubisoft

The minute I saw this game I got Brink vibs but this is something completely different and looks fun. Hyper Scape falls in with the other first-person Battle Royale games that have hit the market recently but this one has a Twitch component that sets it apart from other games. This will allow people to chose effects that will alter the game. You can join the Hyper Scape Open Beta HERE . Courtesy of Games News Network ---- Video thanks to Ubisoft

I have to say, the more I see of Watchdogs Legion, the more I can't wait to get my hands on it. Watchdogs Legion is shaping up to be quite the ambitious game. This trailer shows us some more of the characters we can recruit and play as: from the run-of-the-mil to a professional. We even get a glimpse of this games "bad-guy". Watchdogs Legion is set to be release this October 12th. What I really like is the player choice in this game. We can recruit based on our play-style.

It's finally here. Sony has put together an amazing show; full of exclusive both old and familiar. Spider-Man Miles Morales and a new Ratchet & Clank. Not to mention Deathloop and Project Athia. Sony came out swinging. No price was announced for their console which comes in both a standard and a digital version. If you have time to see what Sony is bringing to the table for the next generation of consoles, I'd highly recommend you do so. Courtesy of Games News Network --- vid thanks to PlayStation Youtube

CyberPunk 2077 is one of the most anticipated games of the year. It was slated to be released earlier but was pushed to September. With that being said an Xbox One X Limited Edition Console was announced soon after and MY GOD is it beautiful. That was scheduled to be release in June. There was no set date for the release but when they created an Xbox page for it, I was there. Everyday. Refreshing. I DID NOT want to miss this console. No way was I was going to let this console pass me by. When June finally hit I was there refreshing like a madman just to make sure I didn't miss it. Now here's where this story goes south. One day last week I woke up, signed into work since I've been working remotely, as most others have, and totally spaced on refreshing. When I did, around 11am that morning--they were gone. My jaw hit the floor. Not only did the console get released [with what feels like no warning-although that's probably my fault for not doing enough research] but it wa

The Future of Gaming is quickly approaching. Microsoft and Sony have dialed up their marketing for their next generation of consoles which are both expected for Christmas this year. With our various gaming conventions being cancelled earlier this year, gamers have been left without early previews to upcoming games and consoles. To help with that Sony has announced an event to showcase the upcoming PS5. It will air on 11 at 1 PM PDT. This event was schedule for last week but had to be rescheduled due to everything going on in the world. I don't know about you but I'm excited to see what they have to show.

The year 2020 was set to be a phenomenal year for video games; and don't get me wrong, it still is. However, a lot of the games that were coming out early in the year have since been DELAYED. The Final Fantasy VII Remake, Doom Eternal and now the wildly anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 from CD Projekt Red, creators of the acclaimed Witcher series has also been delayed.  How long is this delay you ask? Well the game was set to be out in April but now it's slated for September. That is an unbelievably long time to wait for a game that's been on everyone wanted list. Sigh.  CD Projekt Red confirmed the delay via a message on their twitter page and the later in an official post. Sad to see this happen to a game I was literally planning on making my life for the next few years. ==== Courtesy of Games News Network
