BioWare has officially ditched their post-launch plans for their ever-in-a-downward-spiral game, Anthem. Instead of delivering “Acts” that contained a few large content updates, they will now focus on addressing “core issues” while providing smaller “seasonal updates.” What this means for the community is that rather than continuing to roll out varied, monumental events, the team will be working to improve the core game and “deliver challenges and chases” similar to what was released a couple of months after its initial release, at least for this year. 

If you and your friends enjoy throwing other friends into traffic, down skyscrapers, off of blimps, and into freezing waters from atop icebergs, but said friends also hate digital games, you and those friends are in luck! Gang Beasts is coming to Xbox One and PlayStation 4 in a physical release (thanks to Skybound Games) on December 3rd, 2019. While pricing has not been announced at this time, the game currently retails digitally at $19.99 across Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. If you have not seen Gang Beasts in action you can do so by checking out the physical release trailer below.

If you’ve been fighting ‘n raging in Fight ‘N Rage on PC since 2017 you may be asking yourself “What am I to do now with this persistent need to fight ‘n rage when I’m on the go?” Or “What about ragin’ ‘n fightin’ on consoles? And what’s killing the bees in our modern world, anyway?” If these questions apply to you, ask no more! Fight ‘N Rage will be coming to Xbox One and Nintendo Switch on Sept 27th, and on the PlayStation 4 “soon.”

With fall(ish) weather beginning to approach in earnest, the Co-Opticrew has settled into some familiar rhythms.  Maybe it's the tiny bit of nip in the air, or maybe it's the slight orange tinge of the trees, but either way, we've decided now's the perfect time to transition into a few of this year's heavier game releases.

Gearbox has finally released Borderlands 3 upon the world, so Mike, Nick, and I sat down and played through a little bit of it this past Monday for our regular "Let's Play Co-Op" stream. It's definitely more Borderlands, but there have been a few updates/improvements that have made it fun to play, at least.

Borderlands 3 launched last week and it seems it may have needed a few more minutes in the oven to get that fine, squishy texture we all love from the delicious dessert. We've been getting a few reader tips and various outlets are reporting of technical and performance issues plaguing all versions of the game.

The Co-Opticrew seems to have gotten a tiny case of pyromania this weekend.  Nearly everything we're playing revolves around fire, from emblems to ashes to rings (of the "rule them all" variety).  I highly doubt we'll be doing much with actual, physical fire, but you never know.  If you hear any fire alarms going off in the next few days... maybe check back here and make sure we're okay.

The first and second free content updates for Gunfire Games' Remnant: From the Ashes arrive today to give you more reasons (wait, you needed more?) to check out this excellent third-person action RPG. In addition to a new Earth dungeon that will randomly be shuffled into the mix each time you start/re-roll a campaign, you can check out all there is to offer in the different worlds of Remnant without having to start a new campaign thanks to the new Adventure Mode.

A new entry in the River City (aka Kunio-Kun) franchise arrived last week on PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch. River City Girls puts players into the shoes of Kyoko and Misako - the girlfriends of the usual series' protagonists, Kunio and Riki - as they attempt to track down whoever kidnapped their boyfr...

If you’re like me, there are times when you take your Nintendo Switch with you and get ready to play, only to remember you packed your headphones in another place. This leads to digging into said place, finding the (likely tangled) headphones you want, and then untangling the cords before diving into your favorite game. However, SteelSeries is claiming to have solved this problem with the Arctis 1, the first fully wireless gaming headset for the Nintendo Switch that is now available on their website for $99.99.

In a new interview about the sequel to the zombie-smashing hit Dying Light, Dying Light 2, Techland's Chief Technology Officer Pawel Rohleder nonchalantly informed the world that the upcoming game will feature a map four times the size of the original’s. Fans of the first game will recall that its map was separated into two districts, so this news is nothing but exciting as we look forward to (re)killing the undead when Dying Light 2 is released on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC sometime in 2020.

Dust off those train conductor hats, folks, cause Unrailed! has slammed into Steam's Early Access program like a caboose with the brakes cut.  That's probably too extreme a metaphor for someone uploading an executable to a website, but allow me to explain.  I very rarely get to talk about train-themed video games without my eyes glazing over a little, so I plan on taking full advantage of this opportunity.
