Last year, before E3, and back when Dambuster Studios was still called Crytek Nottingham and hadn’t been sold to Deep Silver, I saw a presentation of Homefront: The Revolution in action. I thought it looked fantastic, like an open-world version of Half-Life 2’s City 17. This post originally appeared on Kotaku UK At this year’s…
This is not official art. It’s fan art. Pixiv member Kanon Kamishima created the piece and uploaded it in 2013. This week, similar art was spotted on a Dragon Ball Z toy. The artist apparently had no idea. The art depicts Super Saiyan God Goku. It is not official, but has been widely circulated online…
The Attack on Titan live action movie is not very good. It stinks. And the manga’s creator, Hajime Isayama, wants to understand the reaction to the picture. Earlier this month, Kotaku reviewed the live-action version of the popular manga and anime. The movie has been poorly reviewed and received in Japan. “We’re receiving the various…
Artist: Sheena Ringo | Track: Nagaku Mijikai Matsuri | Album: Nagaku Mijikai Matsuri (single) Kotaku Soundtrack is a selection of the stuff we’re listening to – and gaming to – at the moment.

Ashly & Anthony Burch (you know, from HAWP and Borderlands) have just written a book. It’s all about Metal Gear Solid. What follows is an excerpt. Called…Metal Gear Solid, it’s out on August 17, from Boss Fight Books. The summary: Before they co-created the hit web series Hey Ash, Whatcha Playin’?, Ashly and Anthony Burch…
Pop quiz! Did you know it’s possible to see Lisa, the disturbing ghost from P.T., in the basement room that you start the game in? I didn’t. While there have been some whispers about Lisa’s appearance in the first room of the game, actual evidence of her apparition there didn’t really start circulating heavily until…
Mad Max is post-apocalyptic. Adventure Time is post-apocalyptic. I think you know where this is going.
All those years watching Seinfeld, and I never noticed this, sothanks to Tim Rogersfor the pic: turns out the media shelf in the background of Jerry’s apartment, which is mostly full of his old VHS tapes (like Navy Seals!), is also home to a few NES games. You can clearly see SimCity there (which is…
The Zelda series is no stranger to tipping its hat to Westerns. From Spirit Tracks to Gerudo Valley, there’s cowboy blood in Hyrule’s veins. Thing is, it’s always been subtle. This new vid from beatdownboogie, though, throws subtlety out the window. Ganon is a bad cowboy, Zelda is a cowlady and Link, well, Link does…
Using nothing but his annoying swagger and a soccer ball, Ronaldo finds all sorts of new ways to terrorize the citizens of Grand Theft Auto V. The digital version of Ronaldo, that is. You’ve got to watch this video by TheFifa11videos—they use Ronaldo’s FIFA character model to create funny animations inside of GTA V. The…
I hate spiders, and I hate it when games collect my real-world information. Spider: Rite of the Shrouded Moon should be my nightmare, but it somehow made me enjoy both those things. Spiders are icky. They have too many legs and weird eyes and they don’t meow or bleet or moo or anything to make…
Wes Johnson is Cloud and Sarah Quillian, aka Adella, is Aeris. Photographer Jan-Michael Losada made a whole series out of this, with some very cool underwater shots, so be sure to check out the rest of the pics.
One of the tool tips in Galak-Z says, “Death is just part of the circle of life.” That’s true. But, also: screw you, Galak-Z Galak-Z feels like how video games used to be. It looks simple but plays hard. You’ll keep telling yourself, “I know I can beat this freaking mission.” You can’t. Not at…
Hey Heroes of the Storm Abathur players, I need to ASKathur you a question. Sorry. I want to put together a guide for this strange, wonderful hero since he’s finally on free week (and because he’s notoriously difficult to master). Please let me know if you have any gameplay tips or build strategies to suggest.…
Late last week, Riot revealed plans to relocate the North American servers for its popular online multiplayer game League of Legends from Portland to Chicago. The plan is to centralize the location of the servers, and thereby reduce lag for the greatest number of players possible. What could be the problem, you ask? The only…
Last week, some lucky Gamescom attendees got a chance to see new Fallout 4 footage behind closed doors. Many gaming websites have reported on it; the new Fallout footage is not a mystery. Thing is, Bethesda hasn’t actually released this footage for the world to see…not that this has stopped fans from finding creative and…
“We probably should have announced the run button before launch…” So say the developers of the new (and pretty good!) story-and-exploration game Everybody’s Gone to The Rapture. A last-minute change to the game’s controls left the run option unintentionally hidden from gamers. Just hold R2 for a bit!
Anime shows are a team effort. There are many people involved in the making of your favorite show, each with their own style and take on your favorite character. Dragon Ball Z is no exception. MisterSatanZ recently made a great video with images from Kanzenshuu that takes a look at how Dragon Ball Z changes…
