It's been an interesting past couple months for Destiny 2. Between the lack of a compelling endgame to which to return and the recent XP brouhaha, the loot shooter has gotten a little bit of a black eye.

As if Dungeon Defenders 2 wasn’t wonderful enough in its current form, costing $0.00 and brimming with content, the developers at Trendy Entertainment have announced the first of many updates that will bring even more content to an already full game.

After getting teasers for the past year, some details have emerged about the underlying mechanics for Frozenbyte's forthcoming "cooperative blast 'em up," Nine Parchments. Each of the eight playable wizards will have their own set of skill trees into which players can dump points into as they earn experience.

Last week, Canadian developer Beamdog announced that they are bringing back the seminal D&D cRPG, Neverwinter Nights, as Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition. This version of the game is mainly the same as the Diamond Edition, but with enhanced visuals that will go all the way up to 11 (i.e., 4k).
