Rise of Hydra is Skydance’s long-awaited Black Panther and Captain America game – Destructoid

Nearly two years after the project was teased, Skydance New Media and Marvel have fully unveiled its upcoming game starring Black Panther and Captain America.

Dragon’s Dogma 2 – Destructoid

After over a decade, the sequel to one of the more unique open-world RPGs is finally here. With just over 40 hours in the world of Dragon’s Dogma 2 so far, I feel like I’ve barely scratched the surface. If you’ve played the original Dragon’s Dogma, surely you can understand the sentiment here. Every day I’ve played DD2 I’ve fully intended to focus on the main storyline. But life is not that simple, and every single time I’ve found myself ending the day halfway across the map, deep in a cave wondering how I got there…

According to a report from IGN, Bungie’s shakeup goes further into more than just Destiny.

Obsidian’s Alpha Protocol is available again thanks to GOG – Destructoid

Delisted from digital storefronts in 2019 due to the expiry of music licensing, Alpha Protocol is being made available again thanks to the work of GOG. It’s now been relisted and available to purchase on their store. Alpha Protocol was first released in 2010, where it gained a cult following. Reception by the press was less warm, however. Writing for Destructoid at the time, James Stephanie Sterling went as far as giving the game a 2. Ouch. Despite this, I played it, and while it has its issues, I still look back at it…

Alone in the Dark – Destructoid

At the time of writing, I’m about halfway through Emily Hartwood’s campaign in Alone in the Dark, the 2024 reimagining of the game many attribute the entire survival horror genre to. What I had played up until this moment showed me a game that’s true to its roots. However, a recent update has caused a game-breaking bug that I’m unable to pass, and I don’t know what else it might have broken. With the game’s release scheduled for tomorrow, I’d be remiss not to warn you to hold off from buying it until I can give you a…
