Kamala Khan, also known as Ms. Marvel, will be a playable character in the upcoming Marvel’s Avengers from Crystal Dynamics, Eidos Montréal,sandr and Square Enix. This news was originally announced at New York Comic-Con, where a trailer revealed the character and Sandra Saad was confirmed to be playing the role. The super-stretchy teenage superhero Ms. Marvel has quickly become a fan favorite, after debuting in the pages of Marvel Comics in the summer of 2013 and soon after becoming Marvel’s first Muslim superhero to headline her own comic book series....

Eidos Montreal and Square Enix have dropped the launch trailer for Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, 80’s soundtrack and all. Backed to Mötley Crüe 1989 classic Kickstart My Heart, the trailer is a bombastic trip through the adventure we can expect later this month. The titular Guardians have gotten themselves into a whole new interplanetary mess, naturally. It’s up to you as Star Lord to lead the team of misfits and save the universe....

If you’ve played Marvel Snap at all in the last month or so, you’ll quickly notice that the meta is currently getting dominated by the Negative Sera deck. This decklist combines the scary power of Negative, with Sera’s ability to reduce card costs by one, and Magik’s turn 6 surprise move of extending the game by one more turn. Second Dinner has just released a new patch to re-balance a whole bunch of cards, and while Mr....

Hogwarts Legacy is the latest video game installment based on the famous Harry Potter series, set in a time before the evil dark lord, Voldemort, even existed. Players will take on the role of a student at the magical school, where they can meet and befriend new characters of the series. So, if you want to learn more about the game’s voice actors, here is the confirmed cast of Hogwarts Legacy....

Editor’s note: We’re sponsored by Relic Raiders this week. Here’s a bit about the game from the development team. Online battles got a little hotter with the release of Relic Raiders on Steam Early Access. The free-to-play multiplayer action game drops up to sixteen players into randomly generated arenas where they must fight until one remains. Players choose from six characters that specialize in melee, ranged, or area-wide attacks. However, characters such as Aria offer a balanced selection of abilities....

A fan is remaking Metroid Fusion in Minecraft because you can make literally anything in Minecraft. What haven’t we seen in Minecraft? Not much, to be honest. We’ve got Pirates of the Caribbean, Egyptian mythology, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and even Skyrim. You can build it all in Minecraft. And now you can even build in two dimensions. Reddit user NyuBug recently posted this video to the r/Minecraft subreddit. It starts off with what appears to be just regular old Metroid Fusion footage, but then the camera pans back to reveal that it’s actually just a flat plane in Minecraft’s creator mode....

A remastered release of Halo Reach doesn’t appear to be on the cards after Xbox boss Phil Spencer suggested on Twitter that backwards compatibility may be the only way to play the Xbox 360 title on Xbox One. Asked on Twitter if Halo Reach would ever come to Xbox One “as a DLC for MC collection or Maybe HALO Reach Anniversary”, Spencer replied, “I’d like to see it come via back compat”....

UPDATE 27/05/22: Following our article yesterday, we recieved a reply from Microsoft which reads: “Every reported claim we receive is investigated, and for every claim found substantiated there is clear action taken. This disciplinary action can range from termination, to demotion, loss of pay or bonus, official reprimand, mandatory training, coaching, or combination of some of these.” The original story continues below. ORIGINAL 26/05/22: A new report has called out Microsoft executives (both former and current) for their poor behaviour towards staff, including instances of verbal abuse and sexual harassment....

Microsoft’s desire to acquire ZeniMax Media, the owner of Bethesda, was approved by the European Union yesterday. This approval process followed a similar one in the US. If you are curious as to the purpose of these review processes, the intent is to analyze risk for potential monopolies in the market. That doesn’t appear to be the case for this merger though. Now that both of these regulatory reviews have passed, Microsoft has officially welcomed Bethesda into its Xbox first party lineup....

Never have I been so absolutely sold on a game so quickly. Blur is all the fun of Mario Kart, with the speed of Burnout, and a little bit of Project Gotham Racing on the side (same developer). And it makes for an absolute blast. I finally pulled myself away from three straight hours of playing to write this piece, and when I’m done I’ll probably go right back to it....

If you have been a keen player of Call of Duty: Warzone, then you know that issues and glitches are part of the package most of the time. Despite the intense competition between players, survival may not always be dependent on your skill, especially not when players can turn invisible and get the drop on you. The latest Call of Duty: Warzone bug comes in the form of the new Awoken operator skin for Francis, which turns players invisible in certain situations....

This Iron Fist review contains spoilers. Iron Fist Season 2 Episode 5 Look, I’m extremely surprised to admit this, but Iron Fist season 2 is quite comfortably my favorite Netflix MCU season that isn’t either of the Daredevils. Sure, it isn’t perfect, but it is enormous fun and completely plunging head first into the mystical underpinnings of the character. Jessica Jones might boast writing that’s thematically complete and has important things to say about trauma, but I just can’t get excited about watching her pull another lock off a door while looking bored....

If you’re a fan of the anime or manga then you’ll know that Gon is more often the primary protagonist, with Killua being a secondary protagonist. But who is superior in terms of strength? Is Gon stronger than Killua in Hunter X Hunter? Here’s what you need to know. Hunter X Hunter is unlike anime like Dragon Ball Z or Bleach, in which power can be easily quantified or ranked. In those cases, for example, you could say someone like Chairman Netero is stronger than someone like Leorio....

The Nazis have been the subject of screen satire going all the way back to their peak of power and aggression, as seen in Charlie Chaplin’s The Great Dictator (1940) and Ernst Lubitsch’s To Be or Not to Be (1942) ripping Hitler and his minions a new one in real time, even as the world was discovering the full extent of the horrors they inflicted were known. Both films are considered masterpieces now, but the latter in particular received its share of critical knocks at the time for contrasting the humorous escapades of its acting troupe with the cataclysmic downfall of Warsaw....

In order to prove himself worthy of the throne, Arthur needed to pull the legendary sword Excalibur from the stone. The legend is iffy on exactly how long this took him, but a game bearing his name is going to take a bit longer in development. King Arthur: Knight’s Tale, an upcoming turn-based tactical RPG from Hungarian developer NeocoreGames, was set to launch today. Alas, the company needs a bit more oomph before it’s ready to pull the sword free on January 26....

Earlier, we profiled the new Gunslinger class for Kingdom Under Fire II, which is finally getting closer to its release date. Now, the team at Gameforge has chosen to take a look at another class in the game: the sleek and powerful Ranger. In the trailer below, players can get a good look at the Ranger, one of the five classes featured in the game. Armed with her mighty bow and daggers for close-range attacks, this character means serious business on the battlefield....

Oh, Kojima. You’re the unpredictable, eccentric soul that the video game industry deserves, and the one it needs right now. Mostly, we need you to explain just what the heck’s going on with Death Stranding. These tweets? They’re not so helpful. Hideo Kojima has never been the kind of guy to meekly play by the rules. His beloved Metal Gear Solid franchise is well-known for deftly blending super-serious drama with absolute ridiculousness....

If there’s one thing that’s sorely lacking in the video game genres department, it’s the adventure documentary hybrid. Thankfully, we only have a short wait to go to see another enter the mix — Kursk. The game is about the K-141 Kursk, a Russian nuclear submarine which sank in the Barents Sea on August 12, 2000. There were no survivors. Kursk, from Jujubee S.A., promises to offer the thrills, drama, and mystery surrounding the events of the ill-fated vessel....

Leto’s Lab, the new dungeon in Remnant: From the Ashes, went live today. The 2 GB update includes a brand new area to explore, full of combat challenges and more. It follows last week’s inclusion of adventure mode, which gave players a whole new way of enjoying the game. Leto’s Lab includes more than just extra beasties to slay, however. There is also a new armor set, and we know how to get it — soon, you will too....
