Lara Croft is bringing her adventures to smartphones next year with Tomb Raider Reloaded. This is her third debut on a mobile platform together with her Lara Croft Go in 2015 and Lara Croft: Relic Run.

Fans of Fire Emblem know that some of the best Waifu material come from anime-style medieval fantasies. When they aren’t discussing which characters have the best stats, growths, skills, and class access, Fire Emblem fans also love discussing the best Waifus. This is usually done on a game-by-game basis, though: finding the best waifus throughout the entire series is a much taller order. Which Fire Emblem units are the best Waifu material?...

This is the best SMG in Warzone right now. Love it or hate it, the MAC-10 is one of the best weapons in Call of Duty: Warzone right now. Like the DMR 14, it’s hard to load into a Warzone match and not encounter this gun. It’s high fire rate and mobility make it the best close-range option in the game (outside of the dual Diamatti pistols), and it absolutely shreds enemies even if they’re wearing full armor....

Previously exclusive to Oculus headsets. Star Wars and virtual reality seems like a match made in heaven, as who doesn’t want to take part in lightsaber duels in VR. While there had been VR experiences like as part of Star Wars Battlefront, Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series really stood out when it was first announced. The first episode of the series launched last May alongside the release of the Oculus Quest, but the game as a whole was exclusive to Oculus headsets at that time....

One of the more iconic gameplay moments to come out of this year’s E3 has been the gun-toting granny running around Watch Dogs Legion’s London laying out enemies with a stun gun. It turns out that stun gun isn’t just a novelty; half of Legion’s weapons will be non-lethal, according to the game’s creative director. Speaking to Twinfinite, Clint Hocking revealed that giving the player the option to take down enemies non-lethally in almost any situation was a priority for the team, saying, “We wanted to make sure that non-lethal was an option in any combat encounter....

The Grand Theft Auto series goes for a slightly more realistic feel. The graphics look great, and although there is a lot of humor, it isn’t quite as kooky as it used to be. With the re-release of Vice City, we remember the arcade feel and random symbols around the city! The i symbol stands for Information. When you walk into it, it will provide information about any building or place you are standing in front of that the game feels important to know....

Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE, the crossover game between Fire Emblem and Shin Megami Tensei, is being ported to the Nintendo Switch. Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE initially released on the Wii U in 2015.
