Eyes up — the Black Armory is preparing to open its doors, and with it a new endgame activity called the “Lost Forges.” Now, we’re as voracious for new Destiny info as the next Guardian, so we reached out to Evan Nikolich, Design Director at Bungie, to learn what makes the Lost Forges tick and…
Respected Japanese publication Famitsu has revealed their latest review scores and although there aren’t many, there may be some you’re interested in. The sublime Ori and the Will of the Wisps takes the crown this week with an impressive 36/40 score. Personally, it’s well deserved as it runs great on Nintendo Switch, has a fantastic…
