Throughout its history, EverQuest has been expanded with over 30 add-on packs, constantly adding new features while keeping its classic late-90s look. A core part of what makes EverQuest unique is its focus on teamwork for high-level play. Raids can involve up to 72 players across multiple areas, all cooperating to achieve goals and defeat difficult bosses. EverQuest Legends aims to offer the same content, but with a fresh approach.
However, the data paints a more complex picture. The important question isn’t whether Marathon took players from ARC Raiders, but whether ARC Raiders could maintain its initial popularity on its own. It also raises the issue of whether these two distinct games can successfully share the same genre. As extraction shooters become more popular, the biggest problem for the genre might not be competition between games, but rather defining what the genre is.
Ah, the plot thickens! South Korea’s Drug Crime Joint Investigation Headquarters, the task force that truly deserves a medal for its creative use of digital tools, has set its sights on Park’s Bitcoin wallets. The authorities are convinced that a mere 6.8 billion won (a mere $5 million in drug proceeds, a pittance really) is just the beginning. Investigators believe there’s a far larger fortune hidden somewhere in the tangled web of crypto wallets. In fact, they suspect the true scale of Park’s criminal empire is “several times larger.” Who knew that cryptocurrencies, once thought to be a safe haven for your average law-abiding citizen, would become the new playground for international drug cartels? A bit ironic, isn’t it?
Bungie, known for its decade of experience supporting the Destiny games, seems to be using those lessons to improve Marathon. They’ve been quick to respond to player feedback and make changes based on what the community wants. For instance, they adjusted the schedule for Ranked and Cryo Archive so players could enjoy both modes each week without having to choose. Previously, both were available only on weekends, but now Ranked appears earlier in the week, followed by Cryo Archive. Beyond these quick fixes, Bungie is also planning a larger update later this month.
Take-Two Interactive, the company behind games like GTA 6 and Borderlands 4, has had a complex stance on artificial intelligence. While CEO Strauss Zelnick has assured investors the company is embracing generative AI, he’s also voiced concerns about its use in game development. Despite having an AI team in place since at least early 2025, the future of that team is now unclear.
Some Naruto games recreate the anime’s most exciting fights with stunning visuals, while others let you immerse yourself in the world by exploring, completing quests, and getting to know the characters. When done well, this balance creates a truly captivating experience. It’s this balance – between action and exploration – that distinguishes a good Naruto game from a truly unforgettable one. The most beloved games consistently deliver high quality and avoid feeling either hurried or monotonous.
To truly capture the spirit of the original Mass Effect trilogy, a game needs to excel in four key areas: creating a believable world, writing engaging dialogue, developing memorable companions, and offering satisfying combat. While it’s too early to say if Exodus and The Expanse: Osiris Reborn will fully achieve this, they currently appear to be the closest contenders yet. With Exodus being developed by former BioWare staff and The Expanse: Osiris Reborn directly inspired by Mass Effect, 2027 looks promising for fans of the iconic sci-fi RPG series.
“We’re waiting for the Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) and some very important legislative bodies to get their act together before we can do anything.” The deal is also entangled in new digital asset regulations. Ah, bureaucracy, the ever-present lover in the dance of corporate affairs.
Lots of popular shows are being remade, and there are several great anime series that could also benefit from a fresh start. In fact, some are already in the works – for example, a new version of One Piece is coming soon.
