Disney Speedstorm brings on the bad guys with their new Villainous Ever After seasonWhile it's plumbed the depths of the Disney vault in the past, Disney Speedstorm has often focused on the heroic members of the famous animation giant's roster. But its shortfall of villains is about to be corrected as Disney Speedstorm brings on the bad guys in their Villainous Ever After season! The three headliners of the event are as follows: Mother Gothel, the conniving witch of Tangled fame, Yokai, the mysterious supervillain from Big Hero Six, and Shan Yu, the infamous leader of the Huns in Mulan.

Borderlands Mobile makes a surprise appearance on the iOS App StoreThe Borderlands series is one of the first to really codify the looter shooter genre, for better or for worse. And it's shown both the best and worst of what Gearbox has to offer FPS fans. But, there's a brand-new game in the series that's just dropped on a surprising platform, as Borderlands Mobile arrives on iOS! Developed by Zynga, we haven't heard a peep about Borderlands Mobile before. However, overnight, it landed on the iOS App Store in the US and is already soliciting player feedback for what seems to be a test period.

OneState looks to offer something for roleplayers and life-simulationists alike as it hits global launch

OneState looks to offer something for roleplayers and life-simulationists alike as it hits global launchIt used to be that roleplaying online was purely the domain of TTRPG enthusiasts and Second Life players. But in recent years, stepping into the shoes of another version of yourself has become decidedly more mainstream. This is something that OneState, which has just hit global launch on iOS and Android, wants to capitalise on. Now, I'll be frank, it doesn't take a genius to see where OneState is taking its inspiration. Plopping you down in a digital version of Los Angeles, it's up to you to decide how you pursue the goal of riches and luxuries, be that legitimately or via more... nefarious means. ... [ MORE ]

Marvel Future Fight will celebrate its 11th anniversary with a Marvel Rivals crossover

Marvel Future Fight will celebrate its 11th anniversary with a Marvel Rivals crossoverMarvel Rivals has a fire wardrobe, and Marvel Future Fight raiding it for its 11th anniversary just seems perfect. The anniversary pre-registration is live now, with the update dropping later this month. And there’s enough happening that it’s worth paying attention to even if you’ve been away for a while. Sticking around for 11 years does require a lot of dedication after all. The Rivals crossover is naturally the more exciting half. Jeff the Land Shark makes his Future Fight debut, pulling straight from Rivals, with progression up to Tier-4 and new Ultimate and Striker skills to go with it. ... [ MORE ]

Plants Vs Zombies 3 rises from the dead in soft launch for select regions

Plants Vs Zombies 3 rises from the dead in soft launch for select regionsThe Plants Vs Zombies franchise is one that the folks at EA seemingly haven't always been clear on what to do with. Case in point being their continued launching, unlaunching and relaunching of Plants Vs Zombies 3. Now, the latest sequel to the hit tower defence is back in soft launch after not one but two different versions already! If you don't know what Plants Vs Zombies is, then I admire your disconnect from modern pop culture. This tower defence sees you building a garden of well-armed plants to defend your Neighborville garden from a horde of zombies trying to eat your brains. As tower defence goes, it's utterly brain-dead (pun intended) in its simplicity, but extremely engaging too. ... [ MORE ]

Annulus is a graphically lush tactical RPG that's out now on iOS and Android

Annulus is a graphically lush tactical RPG that's out now on iOS and AndroidChoosing what to sell your mobile game on is a key struggle for any publisher or developer. Is it the gameplay? The cosy, laidback nature of it? Maybe even the sound? But one aspect that is not always pushed is graphics, which is something that the newly released strategy RPG Annulus focuses on! This new 'art-driven' RPG puts you in the shoes of a mercenary commander leading a band of soldiers into battle. With the continent of Novisses embroiled in conflict, this dark fantasy world is the perfect battleground for a sword-for-hire. In terms of gameplay, that's reflected in a Fire Emblem-style grid-based battlefield to duke it out in. ... [ MORE ]

Old School RuneScape Leagues VI begins in Yama’s Lair with demonic pactsOld School RuneScape is making a demonic pact. Literally. Leagues VI launches next week, and this time you're starting inside Yama's Lair. It’s a demon lord's domain that doubles as a tutorial space and an early playground before the real chaos begins. Same deal as always in terms of structure – fresh character, separate worlds, boosted XP, and a limited window to see how far you can push things. But this time, there’s a new demonic pacts skill tree, which lets you specialise in specific combat styles much earlier than the main game would ever allow. ... [ MORE ]
