Looks like the prehistoric world of ARK: Survival Evolved is quite popular on the Xbox One; enough so that new servers were needed to support the whole affair. In the title's first major content update late last week, the developers addressed a few of the issues that have arisen since the title's "work-in-progress" release via Xbox Game Preview, and brought the content of the game up to parity with PC version 231.9.
The world of local multiplayer games has blown up these past few years, which isn't the way many expected things to go with the ease of online multiplayer. Joining those ranks of games is Demons with Shotguns, a co-op arena brawler where you and a friends make your way through angels, demons, and other humans in order to claim all the souls.
Looks like that March 8 release date is pretty well set for Tom Clancy's The Division as a new Xbox One bundle has been announced that includes the game. After seeing two delays and a development time of nearly four years, we'll finally be able to see what the division is all about this spring.
He's had a long and impressive career in game development, but John Romero's name will always be associated with a cluster of old school titles centering around DOOM, Wolfenstein 3D, and Quake. Ok, and Daikatana, but we're all trying to forget about that one. Now, some 21 years after his last design, Romero has released a new map for DOOM And you know what? It's pretty darn good.
The big expansion to Dying Light is on track to release in early February, so Techland is turning the teaser faucet on high. After the story trailer hit last week, the developer showed off custom co-op scenario creation using the free dev tools. Now we get to see just how customizable vehicles are in the upcoming DLC.
Harmonix fulfills their promise to export legacy tracks for Rock Band 4, allowing players to download 47 songs from the first Rock Band. Currently, this is only available for PS4 players, but Harmonix has stated that it will eventually arrive on the Xbox One. In order to download the tracks, players need to use the same profile that completed the export offer. If you didn’t already complete export the tracks, unfortunately you are out of luck. The developer does not have plans to make the export offer available again at this time.
Every new year, people all over the world make a decision to change something about themselves. Some choose to read more, others choose to change their diet to exclusively whey protein, and a few choose to see an adventure through. Much of the Co-opticrew has found itself in that last category. Whether it be saving the world from a rapidly spreading illness, or making their bunny-girl better at deforestation, they have embarked on a long-term journey, and by God, they're gonna stick with it. Well, at least for this weekend.
Well, Taylor and I made a tough decision this past weekend. If you caught any of the previous Nuclear Throne stream, you would've noticed one small detail: that game straight-up wrecked us. Like, "the first 10 tear-filled hours of Spelunky" wrecked us. Once we had properly reassembled our egos, though, our mission became clear.
Remember that time when the release date for Homefront: The Revolution was oops-accidentally leaked? Well, turns out it was spot-on! Look for the co-op enabled game to hit PS4, Xbox One, and PC on May 17th. And yeah, you can probably get five bucks off at Target, too.
It's just a touch late to the party, but Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires is finally out for game-starved PlayStation Vita owners. The portable version packs all the strategy, the characters, and the co-op from the console versions into your hands, allowing you to use the touchscreen to unleash special skills and dominate the battlefield. Take that, other dynasties!
That latest DLC pack for PAYDAY 2 arrives bearing goats. Developer Overkill has teamed up with Coffee Stain Studios, the developers behind the bizarre Goat Simulator, to bring the Goat Simulator Heist. In addition to a new goat themed two-day heist, the DLC includes a new shotgun, four new farm-themed melee weapons, four new masks, and new patterns and materials.
This past friday, the Friday Awesomely Live Co-Op crew proved that a life of crime can start with BMX bikes, your friends, and your local Los Santos gas station. Well, that and some guns. If our GTA Online shenanigans prove anything, it's that we'd make pretty awesome criminals. Good thing the three of us are too lazy to actually try any of this in real life, because if we did, there'd be a trail of destruction, murdered cops, and stolen helicopters. On the other hand, that penthouse apartment on Wild Oats Drive looks pretty dope. Seriously, the lines between GTA Online and reality are starting to fade. Maybe I need to see my shrink.
