After Star Wars Battlefront 2 got struck down, EA’s Star Wars games have become even more powerful than you could possibly imagine. While the discourse surrounding Star Wars is hitting an apex of toxicity following the release of The Rise of Skywalker , fans should still remember that the franchise received two great additions this year: The Mandalorian and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Ord

It’s been quite a while since we last saw Capt. Olimar and his merry band of Pikmin, and we’ve started to miss all of the little guys. The original Pikmin was a launch title on Nintendo’s GameCube and was given a warm reception by critics and fans alike. Fast-forward to the present date and the franchise has received only one sequel, a Wii-make, and a confirmed third title that is currently under development. The odd thing about Pikmin 3 is that it was confirmed nearly three years ago by Shigeru Miyamoto himself, but since 2008 we haven’t seen anything on the Pikmin front at all. Miyamoto has assured the masses that development on Pikmin 3 is “well under way”, so what could be responsible for the massive de
This year’s Comic-Con promises to be action packed for all attendees. For those of you following along at home this weekend, Game Rant will have staff on the ground in San Diego to bring you all the news and surprises for San Di
As of right now the only titles we have pegged to make an appearance during Microsoft’s press conference — as opposed to appearing on the show floor — are Gears of War 3 , Forza 4 , and a new Star Wars title developed specifically for Kinect. Aside from that the console exclusives are all left to speculation, but there are a few top tier titles that we most definitely would like to see app
With Super Mario World taking Nintendo’s moustachioed mascot into a new era of platforming, the developers decided that he was in need of a new companion. Specifically, an animal that Mario could not only ride, but one that could assist him in com
Dicey Dungeons made deck-building interesting by turning genre conventions on their head in its various playstyles. It is a game that everyone should give a whirl, even if they don’t typically like roguelikes or deck-based games. Dicey Dungeons never stops being fun and is far and away the best indie game I played this year. I don’t have a joke for this one, but I think the jokes have been on a good roll thus
Look to any major video game franchise these days, and you’re likely to find one thing: every hero, no matter how powerful or wise, relies on others to help achieve their mission. And sometimes, those allies are furrier than othe
It’s been rumored that the next entry in the Splinter Cell series is titled Splinter Cell Retribution , but this name has not been confirmed by Ubisoft. Apart from an image of an email addressed to Ubisoft PR Specialist Jacint Erdei, there is nothing else to suggest this name is even r
Alongside Halo , we anticipate one of Microsoft’s other console exclusives to make an appearance, perhaps from the folks over at Lionhead. Peter Molyneux has always been a strong supporter of the Kinect hardware, so it would be a reasonable guess to assume he might pull out a Fable demo that utilizes Kinect in some
Journey from a revolutionary to king or queen of Albion and along the way battle enemies far and wide while meeting a hilarious cast of characters. Fable III features a stellar voice cast, including John Cleese in the role of your personal butler, and boasts an Academy Award winner as w
I was simply addicted to Tetris 99 earlier this year. I played it every day non-stop and had to actively draw myself away from playing it when I had other things to take care of. While battle royale and puzzle Adventure games treasure maps don’t seem like they would mix, boy howdy they certainly do. While Fortnite remains the king and Apex Legends brought a lot of innovation to the genre, Tetris 99 proved that the mechanics of battle royale aren’t limited to just shoot
Officially titled the ‘Battle Armored Dragon Assault Strike System’ (B.A.D.A.S.S.) the creature puts his brethren to shame. Equipped with a ‘Terror 4000 Cannon’ and titanium plating, the dragon is as invincible as any child of the 1980s could imagine it to
