If you missed any of the announcements, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Below is a list of every single reveal made during today’s presentation.

After all these years,Fallout 3feels like a fluke. It nailed the series’ signature satire with Liberty Prime stomping through a post-apocalyptic wasteland, wading through the rubble for communists in a Cold War allegory so on-the-nose it makes President Dick Richardson look subtle. Then along cameFallout 4, a vapid shadow of what the series once was, the edges so sanded down that even the ghouls started to look like smoothskins. Bethesda doesn’t have the chops for a property like this anymore....

Summary The Final Destination franchise has been revived via Bloodlines after lying dormant for more than a decade. The new movie is off to a flying start, already making almost $200 million at the box office. However, one screening of the film almost ended in a Final Destination-style disaster last week. Reported by Argentinian news site Infobae, Fiamma Villaverde was passing a theater with her daughter and friend when they noticed a Bloodlines screening had just begun, so they bought tickets and went in to watch the movie....

We’ve got a spread of DPS, sub-DPS, and support characters included in our list of the best four-star characters on the standard banner in Genshin Impact, with a variety of elemental damage to help you across Teyvat....

Quick Links One of the most fascinating planets inRevenge of the Savage Planetis Zenithian Rift. This planet features both frozen tundras and volcanic zones. It also includes areas filled with toxic gas, floating sky isles, and towering mountainous regions—making it more majestic than most others. But that’s not all. While it appears significantly larger than other planets at first glance, its size is somewhat deceptive, as it doesn’t offer that many explorable locations....

Summary Game of Thrones: Kingsroadisout of early access, making it free-to-play across PC and mobile. However, judging by the reviews, the full release is suffering frommany of the same problems that players encountered before launch. Over on Steam, the reviews are still mixed, with many of the most recent reviews being negative. Just as we saw with early access, many of the complaints revolve around the game’s monetisation, as the playerbase complains that, even on PC, Kingsroad feels like it’s intended for mobile, with the in-game economy to match....

Quick Links Genshin Impacthas a lot of areas to explore, mysteries to unveil, and enemies to fight. But from time to time, the Traveler has the chance to chill out for a bit during many seasonal events. These usually have minigames that you can complete, with a lot of helpful rewards. The new Sunspray Summer Resort Event brings several minigames to the game, but perhaps the most important part of this seasonal event is the new outfit for Bennet, which you can obtain for free by playing through the many games in it....

Grounded 2was just released in early access earlier today, bringing fans of the series a huge new world to explore and a lot more nasty foes to overcome (or cower from if you’re not too fond of spiders). Of course, being in early access means there’s plenty of stuff in the works for Grounded 2, and clear communication is a requirement for any successful early access title. Thankfully, developer Obsidian Entertainment appears to have nailed down that particular aspect, as despite the game having only been released literally hours ago, a massive roadmap of upcoming additions has already been shared on social media....

Summary Hollow Knight: Silksongfans are down bad. After expectations were raisedoverandover againthat the game would appear at one of this year’s summer showcases, it was once again absent, apart froma joke during a Deadpool game reveal, and a few seconds of gameplay and a polite nod at the Xbox event this past Sunday. With no firm release date in sight, despitea recent tease from one of the game’s publishers, Silksongers have been scouring its appearance during theXbox Showcasefor any hints they can....
