Massively Overpowered

Heroes of the Storm has been out for, oh, about six minutes now, but we guess that it's never too soon for Blizzard to throw in a huge update into the game. Are you going to complain? We didn't think so. At E3 this week, Blizzard released a few new details about its upcoming Eternal Conflict expansion. For starters, there...

It's hard to really get a sense of how EVE: Valkyrie will play if you're not actually wearing one of the two VR headsets the game is being developed for. That's kind of its whole thing. But the game is on display at this year's E3, and that means there's new footage and screenshots for plans to delight to...

Hey guys! Did you hear about this Darkfall thing? If we all pool our allowances together, we could buy and run our very own MMO! Of course, even though you all chipped in for it, I'd still be the one calling the shots, which means that I'd make it a server-wide rule that all warriors would have to wear...

By now you are no doubt familiar with the guild halls arriving in Guild Wars 2's Heart of Thorns expansion. What you probably didn't expect is that the expansion is available for purchase as of tonight and is already stirring up controversy for its $49.99 standard rate that comes along with a copy of the base game whether you've already got it or...

I love seeing interaction and cooperative projects between MMO bloggers because what fun is there in being an island? Especially when we talk about massively multiplayer games! Anyway, two writers have been conducting a weekly series called Dual Wielding in which they give their takes on the same topic. The topic that caught my eye was the value and effect of the...

What's the big deal about Ark: Survival Evolved? Honestly, I don't know. To me it looks like yet another in the endless horde of early access survival sandboxes on Steam these days, but it also seems to be really popular. Plus, dinosaurs. Gamasutra recently interviewed creative director Jesse Rapczak, who had a hand in Microsoft's Hololens development as well prior experience at...

Blizzard has updated Hearthstone with its new tavern brawl game mode. You'll need a level 20 hero to participate in the new stuff, which includes a weekly schedule and weekly rules changes. Other patch additions include new heroes, though they're strictly cosmetic and don't affect Hearthstone's gameplay. Blizzard has also updated the game's collection manager, fixed a bunch of bugs,...

Ascent: The Space Game is holding its first major election. This isn't just any player election, mind you, but it's one that will determine the loftily titled President of the Galaxy. Developer Fluffy Kitten Studios says that the president will be "given a direct line to the development team" and will therefore be able to "influence the very foundation...

World of Tanks has already stormed the beachhead of Xbox 360, but it's aiming for even more significant gains with its Xbox One release when it launches on the platform next month. The tank arena game will debut on Xbox One on July 28th, although you won't need to wait that long to play it. Wargaming is planning for a...

World of Warcraft's 6.2 patch features a series of seven different weekend events, two of which will make timewalking dungeons available to characters at level 71 (for Outland dungeons) and 81 (Northrend dungeons). Timewalking scales your power and gear "down to a fraction of what they normally are," Blizzard says in its announcement post, so it's best to come prepared....
