Capgod
Well, this is something you don't see everyday. The Trophy list for Monster Hunter World: Iceborne -- the expansion that comes out in September -- is now live on the PlayStation Network.

The hunt continues
We're pretty sure Capcom's at least hinted at this before, but here's confirmation anyway: Monster Hunter World: Iceborne will be Monster Hunter World's first and last expansion.

News See Diablos in This Leaked Monster Hunter Movie Teaser
Monstrous
Last year, news broke that the Resident Evil movie director Paul W. S. Anderson is busy adapting Monster Hunter to the big screen.

News Tekken Director Harada No Longer Sold on the Idea of Tekken X Street Fighter
He'd like to, but...
Tekken X Street Fighter feels like it was announced a million years ago. Although it was never formally unveiled, the project was in the works at Bandai Namco for a while, but it was pretty much put on ice when Capcom released Street Fighter V and Bandai Namco released Tekken 7. As time has passed, a resurrection of Tekken X...

News No More Devil May Cry 5 DLC as Development Has Finished, Capcom Reiterates
Cry all you want
Don't expect anything more from Devil May Cry 5, as Capcom producer Matt Walker has reiterated that development on the game has ended. We've known this would be the case since before the Bloody Palace launched as a free update earlier this month, but we still think it's a bit of a shame, and perhaps a missed opportunity. The...

News Is Capcom Teasing a Resident Evil 3 Remake?
A new Nemesis
Resident Evil 2 is one of the best games of the year, and it’s left fans of the franchise begging publisher Capcom for a remake of the third game in the series. Of course, there’s no definitive proof of that just yet – but a seemingly innocuous tweet from the horror franchise’s official Twitter account has certainly set the...

News Devil May Cry 5 Removes Ridiculous Bum Censorship on PS4, But Not in Europe
Eh?
What even is this story? If you've been keeping up, you'll already know that a scene in Devil May Cry 5 was censored on PlayStation 4 here in the West, and when we say censored, we mean the bare buttocks of a lady were partially obscured by lens flare. It was one of the most pointless and pedantic edits that we've seen in a long time. And now...

Apocalyptic
Devil May Cry 5 has sold over 2 million copies since its launch two weeks ago, on the 8th March. That's according to Capcom, with the company revealing the number during a GDC 2019 presentation. Certainly not Dismal, but it ain't quite Smokin' Sexy Style, either. Still, Devil May Cry isn't necessarily going to appeal to your broader...

News Dragon's Dogma Is Getting an Animated Netflix Show
Hot stuff
Media streaming giant Netflix is teaming up with Japanese animation studio Sublimation to produce an anime series based on Dragon's Dogma.

Sick skills
Devil May Cry 5's been out for a few days now, so naturally, people have started trawling through the game's files on PC. As it turns out, there are apparently a bunch of references to the game's Bloody Palace mode, which is due out soon as a free update. That in itself isn't so surprising, but supposedly, the code hints at a couple of...
News Sony Censorship Row Re-erupts with Inexplicable Devil May Cry 5 Edit
The butt of the joke

Review Devil May Cry 5 - Devil May Cry Back to Its Absolute Best
Underworld shattering
Devil May Cry 5 is like a swift kick up the arse. Over the last few weeks, games like Far Cry: New Dawn and ANTHEM have left us numb. Somewhat enjoyable, but ultimately, totally disposable experiences. Devil May Cry 5 is an intense reminder of what games can achieve when they have crystal clear focus. It's a linear, highly...
News Devil May Cry's Final Cinematic Trailer Is Sheer Spectacle, If a Bit Spoilery
You've been warned
The final trailer ahead of Devil May Cry 5's launch on the 8th March is about as dramatic as they come, and it's chock full of crazy imagery, ridiculous demons, and everything else that you'd expect of the franchise. The game's clearly a visual delight, but at this point we just want to get our hands on it. Having said all that,...

The recent Resident Evil 2 remake has been a bit of a home run, hasn't it?

News Monster Hunter: World on PS4 Was Japan's Best Selling Game of 2018
Roarsome
And to think, we were told time and time again that Monster Hunter was doomed as soon as it 'betrayed' its handheld fans.

DLC Review Resident Evil 2's The Ghost Survivors Brings the Toughest Tests Yet to Raccoon City
Brutal difficulty and little story
It's hard to argue with free, but is this really the type of content we were hoping for from Resident Evil 2 post-launch? The Ghost Survivors was pitched as three non-canon 'what if' scenarios that focused on characters we've never had the chance to play as before, but in practice, they're really anything but. No...
