I don’t envy the people who have to come up with MMO expansion names—firstly, you need to make sure its acronym isn’t some kind of rude word (shoutout to FF14’s Endwalker making me call my favourite MMO “ew” for two years).

While I’ve always found Helldivers 2‘s mechs to be more style over substance, it is undeniably fun to call in a hulking exosuit and spend a few minutes going ham on the enemies of freedom. If you’re the kind of Helldivers player who likes to go all Armored Core on your foes, I have good…
Habitat Hunting. It has been quite the week for Nintendo news, eh? Things kicked off with a sneaky look at Zelda Movie’s Link (or is it?), then the floodgates opened on Splatoon Raiders news, as we got a release date, price reveal, and a first look at three new amiibo. It was Yoshi’s turn after…
