The Heroes of the Storm event was, at first, an odd thing. Being in LA up in the mountains around non-descript buildings, sand-laden parking lots and boring landscapes was nothing to write a symphony about. The parking lot for YouTube was small, so I was directed to an overflow lot. Nothing lept out of me saying "This is YouTube, folks, we're kind of a big deal," so it was safe to say that anonymity was important. However, the next place I went was enough to include in this article.
Whether you're an Exile freedom fighter or a loyal soldier of the Dominion, the latest news relating to the upcoming Carbine Studios-developed MMO, WildStar, will definitely have you at the edge of your seat. The moment we've all been waiting for is finally here.
Today, Carbine Studios made public WildStar's launch day and also lifted the NDA as a sign of them being ready to dish out all of the information you need to lock-in your pre-order and prepare to set foot on Planet Nexus! The game will be launching June 3, 2014, and for those looking to secure their copy early, you'll have two different purchase options available: the Standard Edition and the Digital Deluxe.
Today, CCP pulls the shrink-wrap off its latest game. After running in open beta since January 22, DUST 514 is ready for prime time. Developed in Shanghai exclusively for the PlayStation 3, the MMOFPS represents a new window on EVE Online’s universe of New Eden.
More importantly, the Icelandic developer sees DUST 514 as the start of a new deal for console-bound FPS gamers. As Chief Marketing Officer David Reid put it, there are tens of millions of Battlefield and Call of Duty players waiting to be liberated from a prison that they don’t know they’re in.
I have to admit, I'm just a little bit giddy about getting to write a post about Wizardry Online. You see, I grew up in the era where games like Ultima ruled the pixels on my Apple //e 80-column screen. Long before I spent countless hours roaming dungeons in MMOs, I was doing it in Wizardry.
Now that Wizardry has become an MMO thanks to Sony Online Entertainment, it's a privilege for me to bring news to you on what is the rebirth of one of the most beloved video game franchises of all time!
It seems like we already reported an MMO launch today. Or two. Surely there can't be a third, can there? Why, yes. Yes there can.
It's official: StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm has a release date. Blizzard's long-awaited follow-up the the previously longer-awaited StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty will be unleashed this coming spring, specifically on March 12, 2013.
