Xbox On gives us a peek at the characters introduced in Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2. If eating zombies whole or pelting them with seeds as a sunflower didn't create enough chaos for you, these additions should make the game more interesting. All characters have distinctive offensive and defensive capabilities that suit different play styles.
Similar to its EA Access program on the Xbox One, EA has launched the Origin Access for PC. For the low, low price of $4.99 a month (or €3.99 or £3.99GBP), you'll be able to play the full version of selected EA titles (such as Dragon Age: Inquisition and Dead Space 3), play certain games ahead of their release, and purchase new games at a discounted rate.

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.
