It didn’t go over super-well when Paradox revealed yesterday that two of Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2‘s six playable clans will be available via some rather pricey DLC.

With the Battlefield 6 beta in the rear view, EA’s had some time to tally the numbers of its record-shattering playtest weekends and share some fun stats.

Blizzard isn’t going to let Marvel Rivals have all the fun. In Overwatch 2’s next season, everyone is getting swimsuit skins for a summer-themed battle pass. Plenty of other new things are coming when season 18 starts on August 26—a whole new support hero, for example—but I think we all know what the draw will…

Just as the Asus ROG Ally is taking on a new form in the ROG Xbox Ally, so the MSI Claw 8 is taking on a new form as an, erm, ROG Ally? Nah, kidding, it’s not an Ally, but it does look pretty similar to it with those jutting edges, doesn’t it? Maybe it’s…
