My jaw dropped at this Fallout-themed DOOM mod that reimagines the classic RPG as an FPS — one of the coolest fan games I’ve ever seen

The positive aspect is that the dedicated community of Fallout fans are continually creating fantastic mod projects such as Fallout London, providing something for eager followers to anticipate. Moreover, a fresh viral trailer unveiled over the weekend has brought to my attention one under development that could potentially be among the most impressive mods I’ve ever encountered.

“Suddenly, he was asking me to tell him more about Hela.” — Marvel Rivals finally got the son of MCU chief Kevin Feige into the comic characters

As video game adaptations of popular movies and TV shows increase, there’s a lot of conversation about how these productions can positively impact each other. For instance, Prime Video’s Fallout series showcased the game’s environment to a fresh audience, potentially attracting new players and sparking positive word-of-mouth, which led to a surge in sales for Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 around the same time as the show’s launch.

Similarly, it seems that Marvel Rivals could be experiencing a reverse effect. With an abundance of outfits based on Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) characters available for purchase, such as themed skins and character packs, there’s speculation that the upcoming Fantastic Four movie might pique interest in younger audiences who haven’t been avid MCU fans before.

The game’s upcoming addition of Fantastic Four-themed skins is scheduled to launch on the same day as the movie, July 25, 2025. Given that Marvel Rivals has already surpassed 40 million players since its release, it’s likely that this crossover will attract even more attention from a younger demographic.

Moreover, there could be indirect benefits for Marvel as a whole. The recent introduction of swimsuit-themed outfits for characters like Loki happened to coincide with the return of Marvel’s Swimsuit Special comic book, indicating a potential connection between the game and Marvel’s other media.

Marvel Rivals is currently playable on Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC (via Steam and the Epic Games Store), and PlayStation 5.

“PS5 makes the most sense at the moment.” Ori dev suggests ‘No Rest for the Wicked’ will skip Xbox (for launch) due to “market conditions.”

This game, titled “No Rest for the Wicked,” is an action RPG that boasts stunning graphics and precise combat. It draws inspiration from Diablo, yet introduces a more challenging skill requirement, favoring precision and patience, much like Ori did previously. The game’s intricate, hand-crafted dark setting, coupled with its rich mechanics and systems, promises greatness as it progresses through Steam’s Early Access phase. Currently priced at $39.99 on Steam for PC, this game is already proving to be quite exceptional.

Whoa, this Xbox Game Pass hit’s sequel just shadow dropped out of nowhere — the “massive project” is out in Early Access on Xbox and PC

The game in question that often receives applause is Descenders – a sports game focused on downhill racing, released in 2019 and significantly boosted by Game Pass. Its latest installment, Descenders Next, is an extensive project from developers RageSquid and publishers No More Robots. Originally slated for launch on April 9 this year, the release has been postponed indefinitely to incorporate modifications based on playtest feedback.
