Crackdown 2 developer Ruffian Games has revealed that it is working on a game with Grand Theft Auto series developer Rockstar Games. New information about Rockstar’s next project has been stacking up, with one former Rockstar India employee confirming that Rockstar has multiple new games in development.

Some of the positions are for roles like senior engineer, UI engineer, and senior gameplay engineer....

Creative Assembly has posted job listings to hire designers for an immersive first-person shooter with sci-fi elements. The listings, found by a user on ResetEra, call for both a Senior Technical Designer and a Senior Level Designer. Both listings by the Alien: Isolation developer note that they’re for a “new undisclosed IP.” It looks like we can scratch Alien: Isolation 2 off the list. Damn. According to the listings, the upcoming sci-fi title will make use of the Unreal 4 engine....

Today a new Pokemon video was published, and it’s a rather cute one, focusing on the weight of some of the popular Pokemon. The animated video places Pikachu, Pichu, Snorlax, Dedenne, Zeraora, Greninja, and Machamp on a seesaw, in a competition to find out who is the heaviest. You’d think the heaviest would be Snorlax, but the final result may prove surprising. You can check it out below. If you’d like to read more about the Pokemon franchise, you can read the latest Pokemon Go and Pokemon Legend Arceus news, on top of the reveal of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet....

Yesterday, the Polish developer released a detailed timeline documenting all its upcoming games for the foreseeable future. This included the next game in the Cyberpunk series, which is codenamed “Orion”, along with updates on its Witcher series and a new IP known for now as “Hadar”....

The best zombie stories always provide a mix of unrepentant storytelling, over the top gore, and psychologically screwed up moral choices for the characters — think the zombie baby in Dawn of the Dead, or pick a moment at random from The Walking Dead. DC Comics’ zombie thriller DCeased had its fair share of those psychological moments, including the climax of the story, where Jon Kent had to fight off his zombified father just before the readers discovered there was a cure....

Dead by Daylight is getting an official Attack on Titan crossover, featuring new skins for both the heroes and villains alike. The news came by way of a tweet earlier today from the official Dead by Daylight account. In the tweet below, we’re given a tease for the collaboration, which features the Armored Titan peaking through a window. The question now begs, when are we getting this crossover? When Does Dead by Daylight x Attack on Titan Pack Come Out?...

One extremely dedicated Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild player has gone the extra mile, and unearthed a little known exploit of the game’s Yiga Clan. So, it turns out that those ’travellers’ that litter Hyrule, but are in fact members of the Yiga Clan in disguise, are actually “evil twins” of other inhabitants found across the map. As documented by justlookingfordragon on Reddit, the ‘disguises’ used by the Yiga are “1:1 clones of other, properly named NPCs that exist somewhere” in the game’s world....

Deep Rock Galactic developer Ghost Ship Games announced the title of the cooperative multiplayer’s upcoming Season 3 and showed off the latest downloadable content coming alongside it.

Bungie has recently announced what’ll happen once the Iron Banner returns in Destiny 2: Shadowkeep. The expansion is in full swing this Season of the Undying and the Iron Banner should give some PvP lovers something to do. In fact, it might also be helpful for those who are at the endgame and are looking for pinnacle rewards. You’ll also get the chance to obtain the Season of the Undying’s Iron Will armor set which you can see below....

For a while now Destiny 2 players have held strong to a belief that developer Bungie has one more surprise in store before the release of Shadowkeep and the start of Year 3. Much like the game hosted an Arc Week during the Season of the Drifter, the community thinks that a Solar Week is right around the corner. How Will Solar Week Work? If Solar Week is to be like Arc Week then players can expect a couple of Solar-focused tweaks in Destiny 2....

Destiny 2 studio Bungie is giving the Recluse SMG a second round of balance tweaks in an upcoming patch to the game, the developer announced in a blog post Thursday. A reward for completing a Crucible PVP quest from Destiny 2’s sixth season, the Recluse is a legendary SMG with a perk that improves the weapon’s damage with kills from any weapon in a Guardian’s loadout. Taking the Recluse into PVE content allowed players to hit enemy targets with precision-level damage anywhere, ignoring critical spots entirely and placing the gun’s damage well above comparable legendaries and even exotics....

A new season is officially underway in Destiny 2, allowing players to pursue new storylines, while also hunting down new exotic gear. There’s a new Season Pass to purchase if you’re planning on going hard on the new content, too. With a new season comes plenty of new challenges to take on as well, so here’s a breakdown of all the challenges you can complete in Destiny 2: Season of the Haunted....

Square Enix has cancelled Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’s controversial ‘Augment Your Pre-Order’ program due to the “resounding amount of negative feedback”. The program had initially been devised to unlock access to bonus content as the number of pre-orders for the game increased, with the game even set to unlock four days ahead of its official release date once the maximum pre-order tier had been reached. But as a result of fan feedback, all that content will now be available to everybody who pre-orders a copy of the game or purchases a Day 1 Edition....

The specifications for the PC version of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare have been revealed and it will require a huge amount of install space on the hard drive, as Activision is recommending a minimum of 175GB of free space for the game. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is an upcoming first-person shooter that has a similar name to a more famous title from 2007. The gameplay footage of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare that has been released so far has shown some incredible graphics, which is to say nothing of the high-quality of the facial animations during the cutscenes....

We all know that Black Ops is the next addition to the Call of Duty franchise, but what about the newly formed Respawn Entertainment? They have the rights to games in the Call of Duty/Modern Warfare franchise from the present to the future (which is why Treyarch has been making games based in World War II and now the Vietnam era). We here at Game Rant think, and hope, that the next game will feature space warfare....

Earlier this year, Activision Blizzard, one of the largest and most well-known video game companies, laid off close to 800 employees. The firm is a holding company for some of the world’s most recognizable games: under their belt sits titles such as Overwatch, World of Warcraft, and the Candy Crush Saga. But it’s the decline of one game, in particular, that is largely responsible for the mass exodus that left close to 10% of Activision Blizzard’s workforce out of a job: Call of Duty....

In a new video from Callisto Protocol developer Striking Distance Studios, the developers gather to discuss what brutality in horror means to them as it pertains to the game’s presentation. The video is titled as part one of a docuseries, so we will likely see more of these heading toward the December launch of the Callisto Protocol. The video is fascinating not only because the devs are showing off some pretty gory footage from the game, but also the talent they got to also speak on the topic....
