After lowering their sales forecasts due to a delay in development, EA managed to sell 7....

Following an extensive report into the development of Rockstar’s hugely anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6 earlier this week, a few additional claims have surfaced, giving a clearer indication of just how ambitious the project was originally planned to be. Rockstar finally confirmed development on GTA 6 was “well underway” earlier this year, and while official details remain extremely limited, a report by Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier on Tuesday shared a number of tantalising details about the project, claiming it’ll be set in Miami and will feature the series’ first female protagonist as part of a Bonny and Clyde-style duo....

eFootball 2023 will be arriving this month in the form of a season update, Konami has confirmed.

The God of War franchise began with its first game in 2005 on the PlayStation 2. It was developed by Sony’s in-house Santa Monica Studio and directed by David Jaffe, who was also known for the Twisted Metal franchise.
