It appears as if mounts are coming to The Secret World. Massively OP reader Nordavind sent us this screencap of a Funcom Twitch stream that just ended, but not before teasing an image of a Secret World avatar atop a motorcycle! Source: Screencap; thanks Nordavind and everyone else who tipped us!

If you are not a subscriber to DC Universe Online, you're still sitting back on the sidelines anticipating the release of Halls of Power Part II next week. We all know trying to be patient isn't the funnest thing when you are looking forward to diving into your favorite game's new content, so we talked with Senior Creative Director Jens...

Those anticipating Gloria Victis' glorious transformation into the new Unity 5 game engine won't have long to wait at all. Black Eye Games said that it is in "the home stretch" with the transfer, and after it's done, players can expect to enjoy much better game performance and improved visuals.

In the time since I last penned WoW Factor (which missed an installment purely due to transit strangeness - the only time I've ever missed a column, I do apologize), some stuff has happened. Like what? Oh, nothing major, just World of Warcraft completely losing its sub jump from the beginning of...

One thing is for certain: When it releases, Skyforge will not be lacking in its variety of content. Today, the dev team posted a diary about yet another kind of challenge called anomalies. Anomalies are special open-world areas that require a full five-person group to tackle. The goal is to reach various ether resonators, each of which will be guarded...
