Yesterday, Wow! Stuff and RealFX unveiled their latest creation: the Pikachu Puppetronic. As that name suggests, this is a…
One of the features of World of Warcraft: Midnight I’m the most excited for is Prey. In case you’re unfamiliar, Prey is a system (that you have to sign up for) which will ambush you with a specific boss enemy you’re hunting while you’re out in the open world, eventually leading to a 1v1 when…

Overwatch‘s big Season 1 reimagining, dropping the infamous ‘2’ in its name, adding five new heroes, reworking maps, and overhauling its UI, has given it a new lease on life. So much so that it broke its all-time player count on Steam, a trend which no doubt rippled across other platforms, and it’s still holding…
