News Cross-Platform Mod Support Confirmed for Baldur's Gate 3 on PS5
Just when you thought you'd seen it all
Baldur's Gate 3 is an extremely generous game, allowing players to get lost for dozens, even hundreds of hours, if they like. That mountain of content is likely to grow more extensive (and stranger) before too much longer; developer Larian Studios has confirmed that cross-platform mod support is in the works,...
News Brock Lesnar, Vince McMahon Removed from WWE 22K24 Final Roster

Cena heaven
Mortal Kombat 1 has, surprisingly, been somewhat overshadowed by the success of Street Fighter 6 and Tekken 8 – but it’s still a great game in its own right. NetherRealm Studios naturally has always had robust support plans for the release, and that will continue with the addition of guest character Peacemaker from 28th February...

News League of Legends Fighting Game Officially Called 2XKO, Confirms 2025 Release on PS5
Previously Project L
You know that League of Legends fighting game that's been in development for what seems like an age? It was previously known as Project L, but now it has an official title and a vague 2025 release window. It's named 2XKO (honestly, we might prefer Project L), and it's coming to PS5.
