One of the consistent things every Halo game has had is co-op play. And while it simply started as clones of Master Chief running around in 2 player co-op Halo, the game progressed to integrate it into the story with Halo 2 as the Chief and Arbiter were the focus of that campaign. And with four player co-op being added in Halo 3, it changed the benchmark for the series.
I have fond memories of our Halo 3 Firefight nights on Xbox Live. We had huge community participation and hours upon hours and waves upon waves of Covenant to defeat. But when Halo: The Master Chief Collection finally added Halo 3: ODST to its assortment of games, it neglected to add the specific flavor of Firefight we loved.
PC owners of Halo: The Master Chief collection have been getting a steady drip of releases as the team works to bring all content from the Xbox One release onto PC with all the fixins' PC gamers expect. Halo 2 Anniversary is the 3rd full game available following Halo Reach and Halo: Anniversary.
If you thought DOOM Eternal was going to be the only way to get your digital demon-slaying needs met in 2020 and that you’d have to suffer through doing it solo, think again. The developer says that Dying Light’s newly announced Hellraid DLC (trailer below) will “be your ticket to Hell and back. No, it’s not a metaphor. You will be literally hacking through demonic hordes of Hell.” Sign me and my friends up.
Back in March, we reported that Halo: Reach would be added to the Halo: The Master Chief Collection sometime this year. With just a few weeks left, 343 Industries is fulfilling that promise and Halo: Reach will arrive on the PC and Xbox One on December 3, 2019. On the PC side, this marks the first Master Chief Collection title to arrive on that platform, with the other games in that bundle arriving over the course of the next year.
Dying Light 2 may be well on its way to a Spring 2020 release, but that doesn't mean the original Dying Light has run out of steam. As a matter of fact, the end of the first game's life cycle has allowed the developers to get pretty weird with things, as shown in their latest Halloween event.
343 Industries dropped a big update for Halo: The Master Chief Collection earlier this week that includes a number of enhancements and improvements, but it also adds perhaps one of the most requested features for certain folks: LAN play with no Internet connection required.
The third of four planned DLC packs for Call of Duty: WWII is available now for PlayStation 4 gamers. As with previous releases, "United Front" adds new maps for the general competitive multiplayer modes as well as a new map for War Mode, an objective-based competitive mode unique to CoD:WWII. Really, though, we're not especially interested in those.
In a YouTube video announcement, Techland, the team behind 2015’s fantastic zombie-parkour experience Dying Light, announced the sixth free content update to the game: "Snake in the Grass." While this update adds no Co-Op specific features, the entirety of Dying Light can be played in Co-Op with up to three friends, meaning that everything added are Co-Op friendly additions (wahoo!).
The second DLC pack for Call of Duty WWII is titled The War Machine and you can check out all the game-changing features it includes - ranging from more Zombies to the V2 bomb (It’s a rocket-propelled missile, I Googled it so you don’t have to) - in the trailer below. Even if undead and explosives aren’t your thing, the DLC also brings new competitive multiplayer maps, including Egypt and Dunkirk as well as the Operation Husky mission that takes place in Sicily. All of this DLC is available now on PS4 and on an unannounced date in May for Xbox One and PC.
Video games grow up so fast these days. One minute, they're just barely crawling out into the world, and the next, they're bounding over rooftops in a bloodthirsty pursuit of delicious brains. Techland is celebrating the three year anniversary of Dying Light with some new content, a new community event, and giveaways throughout the entire month of February.
The year of new DLC for last year's Call of Duty has begun! The "Resistance" DLC is now available for Call of Duty: WWII on the PlayStation 4 only, for now, and adds a handful of new multiplayer maps along with a new map/area for the cooperative Zombie Mode.
