Bungie’s multiplayer extraction shooter Marathon has a new trailer revealing the game’s long-awaited release date. You can mark March 5 on your calendar as the date when you’ll begin your trip to planet Tau Ceti IV. First announced in May 2023, Marathon was originally set to launch last September, but it was delayed to address concerns stemming from an initially rocky player reception to the game’s Alpha test. The game was also at the center of a plagiarism controversy surrounding its art direction, which has since been resolved. The extraction shooter sees players controlling bio-cybernetic characters called Runners, who must scavenge resources on the hostile Tau Ceti IV…

Last year, Ubisoft released a 60 FPS update for Far Cry 4 on current consoles, and now it’s applying the same magic to three earlier entries. Far Cry 3: Classic Edition, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon Classic Edition, and Far Cry Primal will receive the same update this week. The news was first announced via a cryptic X post featuring three math equations using emojis to spell out the games and the 60 FPS update. These updates will be available this Wednesday, January 21, and apply when playing the games on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Individual trailers showcase the improved framerates (at least for Far Cry 3 and Blood Dragon), which, keep in mind, is the primary upgrade; don’t ex…

Happy Friday, Game Informer audience! You made it to the end of the week, and I hope some of the stories we published this week made doing so just a little bit easier. It was a slow week for reviews, previews, and the like – a very quiet January so far before the storm of releases that is February, which includes some big games – but a big one for news. We also completed a ton of magazine proofing and editing this week, and we're putting the final touches on the next issue, featuring [REDACTED] on the cover, as we speak. Speaking of, we'll be revealing said cover next week, so keep an eye out on Game Informer's social channels for exact details on when. You don't want to…

We're still living in that rare window (for Game Informer writers anyway) where we can basically play what we want. New releases are absolutely on the horizon and we're excited to play them, but for the moment we're playing the latest live-service game updates, some classics and not-so-classics, finally knocking out 2025 games, and getting around to that demo we've been meaning to check out. It's Friday and it's time for the weekend and our usual recommendation of games and things you should check out! But before that, here's a recap of the biggest stories of the week: Meta Closes Twisted Pixel, Sanzaru Games, And Armature StudioLeon Kennedy Can Finally Use A Chainsaw In …

It's a feature-length episode of The Game Informer Show this week. Marcus, Charles, and Eric gather together to discuss the games they've been playing lately, including the charming new 3D platformer Big Hops and return visits to games like Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. Then, the trio get into a discussion about the subscription services in gaming that they still do, or don't, use. From Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Plus to various battle passes and MMO monthly subs, there are a lot of expenses that can easily add up. Are they all still worth it, or are we cutting some as part of our New Year's resoluti…

New World: Aeternum will be taken offline in roughly one year, Amazon Games has announced. The MMO was delisted from stores yesterday, January 15, but existing owners can still play the game until it’s shut down for good. In a blog post on New World’s official website, the developer explains that New World: Aeternum’s official shutdown date will be January 31, 2027. An FAQ states that although the game has been removed from sale, owners can still install the game from their library. In October, Amazon Games announced the game would stop receiving new content, but it will continue to monitor bugs and performance for the remainder of the game’s lifetime. Additionally, playe…

Resident Evil Requiem comes out next month, and fans have been frothing at the mouth for more news about it, especially since seeing the Game Awards trailer that confirmed Leon's playability. Today's Resident Evil Showcase gave us exactly that, with director Koshi Nakanishi breaking down the gameplay styles of both protagonists, Leon and Grace, amidst other tidbits of information about the game. Capcom wanted to bring Leon back into the main series, especially after the success of the Resident Evil 4 Remake, but Leon's inherent combat skills and action hero vibe make him ill-suited for a full-on horror game. Grace Ashcroft is the solution to that, as her relative lack o…
