We are just a week away from the release of "Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2," and Ninja Theory is very much focused on their new game despite the backdrop of Microsoft closing other critically acclaimed studios. Despite the uncertainty in the industry, Dom Matthews, the head of the studio has emphasized their pride in the game and the anticipation for the fan's reactions.

Released in 2017, the first Hellblade game was praised for its portrayal of psychosis and won multiple awards. Melina Juergens, who starred as Senua unexpectedly, shares how her personal experience with psychosis informed her performance which added authenticity to the game. For Hellblade 2, the team has advanced technologically with extensive motion capture efforts and a new studio. The game aims to deepen the portrayal of mental health, illustrating Senua's ongoing journey with psychosis.

Both the collaborators and the studio like neuroscientist Prof. Paul Fletcher highlight the game's impact...

A leaked image that was taken from the Xbox Dashboard seems to have leaked that Peter Griffin will be coming to Fortnite in Chapter 5 Season 1. If you are a long-time player of Fortnite and tend to follow the leaks, you will know that speculation around Peter Griffin or Family Guy coming to Fortnite has been going on for years and it seems that we are finally getting the skin in the game!

It looks as though this will also be a battle pass skin which is amazing for those who want the skin!

Also in the leak, it seems that we will also be seeing Solid Snake from Metal Gear Solid coming to the game in Chapter 5 Season 1.

Even though all this is leaked, we have yet to hear confirmation from Epic Games but going by the leaked trailer as well for Chapter 5 Season 1, it seems that these leaks may ring true.

Hopefully, we will see more when we get the Big Bang Event later today (2nd of December 2023) but for now, things are looking very exciting for Fortnite!

You can see the leaked...

As many of you will know, Rockstar Games are set to release the first official trailers for GTA VI and it has been announced and confirmed by the developer that it will be in December of 2023. Whilst we have been given a rough idea of when no exact date has been given.

It has been over a decade since we last saw a major instalment in the GTA series so it would be expected that fans are very much excited for the reveal but they have been cautioned to not expect too much from the trailer to not have their hopes shot down if what they expected does not happen, so far it is being reported that the trailer may only showcase the logo for GTA VI and a small glimpse of gameplay.

A leaked pre-order date of December 12th, 2023 which seems to have been obtained through a chat with a customer service employer for Argos, a UK retailer has fueled speculation of a potential release date. This information at this time though has not been verified and should only be taken with a grain of salt...

Fortnite has not had a sizeable concert in-game since the Ariana Grande Tour in 2021, this however, seems to be about to change to some extent by the 2nd of December 2023.

Fortnite leaks that have come to light ahead of the upcoming Fortnite OG Live Event Finale have revealed that Eminem will be coming to Fortnite as part of the finale event. Eminem? I know, we can't believe it ourselves.

It would seem that the Eminem performance will not be the only appearance in the finale but will instead be part of a larger whole, including a Racing Mode, Lego partnership and Rhythm Mode.

According to HypeX's report, the filesize alone for this Fortnite OG event is 1.5GB by itself which is the biggest event by filesize.

So far we know that there will be three Eminem variants which will be the following:

The old Slim Shady

It has been a very long wait and also highly anticipated but it has finally happened! Rockstar Games has announced that we will be getting a reveal trailer in December 2023!

The developer, Rockstar Games made a post on Rockstar Newswire which confirmed the rumours that have been going around the internet since earlier in November. It would seem that Rockstar is not yet ready to reveal the full game but instead is very excited to finally debut GTA 6. They will be giving us a first official look at GTA 6 in December.

It would seem that the dreams of the deal Microsoft placed to take over Activision and Blizzard may not be just that, a dream. A UK ban has been put in place by the government of the UK due to concerns that it would impact and alter the future of the cloud gaming market and would result in UK gamers having fewer choices in the years to come.

Many are asking if Call of Duty may have been the main trigger that resulted in the UK ban on the takeover and it would seem, that may very well be the case. Sony who owns PlayStation had already voiced their concerns over Microsoft taking over Activision and Blizzard and that they could use their ownership of the two companies to withhold the game from PlayStation or even harm the console market. Microsoft had reassured console companies and even struck a deal to say this would not happen and that Call of Duty would be available on other platforms for at least 10 years. Nintendo was happy with the deal by Sony was not which is why they...

It would seem that Discord, Apple and Facebook have all accidentally given user data over to hackers who were posing as law enforcement. The demands were forged to look genuine and they reportedly came from authentic email accounts. Facebook and Apple are said to have handed over basic details such as address, phone number and IP Address where Discord was said to have handed over the internet address history of Discord accounts tied to a specific phone number

Snapchat was also targeted by the hackers but it is unknown if they handed anything over that was requested at this time.

Hunter Kahn, 20 years old from the USA who bought GameStop shares and made $30,000 after cashing out has spent over $2000 on gaming consoles and more to donate to children's hospitals. What exactly did he buy and donate you may be thinking? Hunter bought and donated six Nintendo Switch Lites, two Nintendo Switches, games, e-shop gift cards screen protectors and cases, all of which were donated to children's hospitals.

Hunter was interviewed by CNN after his good deed to which he told them "kids deserve them because of the situation that they are in."

After buying and donating the consoles to the childrens hospital, Hunter will not be using the rest of his money to pay off his University fee's and will be putting the rest of the money into savings.

What an amazing guy and truly an inspiration especially during these really difficult times!

If you are a gamer, you will be well aware of the announcement from EA! Battlefield 6 has been confirmed by EA to be released this year and they have also promised that there will be more players than ever in this new game. EA have also given a release date of Christmas 2021 and they have also made it clear that they are well ahead of schedule, which means we should definitely be getting Battlefield 6 on the date they announce with no delays, hopefully. Not something you hear much of at the moment so that is great news.

If an announcement and a release date was not enough to excite you, it has also been confirmed that EA will be taking full advantage of the next generation consoles and will be bringing huge battles to life in game with more players than ever before!

Are you looking forward to the release of Battlefield 6? Let us know!

Creative Producer for Sega, Yosuke Okunari has made a suggestion that the next micro console to be released could in actual fact be a Dreamcast Mini.

During an interview between Okunari and Famitsu magazine regadring the future of mini consoles it was suggested that Sega could be considering a mini version of the 1999 console.

Quoted from Yosuke Okunari "I think for the next one, we may go with a concept close to the Mega Drive Mini," Okunari explains. "If I have to say some names, it could be an SG-1000 Mini or a Dreamcast Mini."

What are your thoughts on a Dreamcast Mini? Would you grab one if these are released? Do you still own an original?

We know that the release of Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X is now 2 months away with a release for November but it would seem that neither companies are willing to let a price slip at all, cutting it super fine for those who wish to save up ready for the launch.

This seems to be leaving a sour taste in many customers mouths with many worrying that they may not have the funds to purchase the newly released next generation consoles when they release, especially as close to Christmas as their release will be.

It's understandable that both companies would have been holding off on their price announcements due to possibly wanting to undercut the other on a price but with it being so far into 2020 now and a holiday 2020 release guaranteed, it's very much unfair to the customer now at this point.

Are you waiting to hear about a price for either console? How are you feeling about there being no price drop yet?

A new study that has been taken has found that Xbox players are more toxic than Playstation players. Top10Casinos.com were the ones who conducted in the study and found that Xbox players surpassed Playstation players in physical aggression, verbal aggression, anger and hostility.

The results that came back were as follows from the study

Physical aggression ~ 0.541
Verbal aggression ~ 0.634
Anger ~ 0.526
Hostility ~ 0.624

The study that was conducted also found that male players on Xbox were also more aggressive than female players.

So there we have it, male Xbox players may just be the most aggressive. What are your thoughts on this? Would you agree on the study?

If you are a player for Fortnite you will know about the latest event a few weeks ago which saw Fortnite hurled into a Black Hole leaving all fans of the game wondering what Epic Games had planned next or whether Fortnite would even be coming back.

After around a day of the black hole at the end of Season X, leaks started to appear online and it would seem that the person who allowed the leaks to be pushed online which soon went viral was in actual fact a Fortnite Tester and with them leaking news on Chapter 2 they ruined the suspense that epic had been working for months to increase.

It would seem that Epic Games are now taking things a step forward and g the tester who leaked Chapter 2 before Epic Games were ready to release it themselves will be sued.

A lawsuit that has been filed to a North Carolina court this past week states that Ronald Sykes broke a non-disclosure agreement after testing the game in September. Ronald Sykes leaked information regarding the new map...

With Christmas just around the corner, vBucks gift cards are perfect for that little extra stocking filler for anyone who may be a Fortnite player in your circle of family or friends! It's been a long time coming but it would seem Epic Games have listened and vBucks gift cards will soon be available for purchase!

We all know how frustrating it can be when you are a parent and your child wants something on Fortnite and you have to mess about adding your payment details to their account and then removing them after to prevent them from spending more money on their account through your payment card. Even since gifting came out on Fortnite, it's never really solved the issue as parents would then need to create their own accounts to be able to gift something to their child on the item store to save them from adding their payment details to their child's account, this can be somewhat of a pain if you are a parent that has no interest in Fortnite.

When will the gift cards be available...

It's no shock to anyone that for quite a while now, the Call of Duty series has been struggling with many people choosing to either not purchase the new releases each year to many complaints about how much the game has changed and how they do not like the microtransactions brought to the game.

It would seem that the latest instalment in the series, Modern Warfare has brought a lot of gamers back to the series and many of which are giving it good reviews, it's been so good that it's the first Call of Duty game in the series since 2011 that has received some pretty good reviews, making it the best-reviewed in 8 years! The last games to get the best-reviewed was Modern Warfare 3.

You can see below the scores for each Call of Duty from 2007 and from these results, you can see just how badly Call of Duty was being received in the last 8 years

COD: Modern Warfare (2019) – 86
COD: Black Ops 4 (2018) – 83
