KitGuru Games: Call of Duty is More Innovative Than You Know

We often see many writing off Call of Duty each year, claiming that each new entry is somehow worse than the last, only for them to be critically re-examined years down the line. For instance, after having the most disliked trailer upon its initial reveal, many now praise Infinite Warfare for its fresh take on the franchise.

KitGuru Games: xDefiant is competing with MW3, not MWIII

With the most recent COD safely in its mid-life cycle, the launch of xDefiant comes perhaps at the perfect time to try and steal as many eyes away from Call of Duty as possible. While in many ways, xDefiant is indeed competing in the same space as COD gameplay-wise, one might argue that Ubisoft’s efforts have resulted in a product which feels as though it was designed to compete with Modern Warfare 3 (2011), not Modern Warfare III (2023) – and that’s not necessarily a bad thing...

Sony confirms ‘tentpole’ PS5 games won’t be coming to PC day-and-date

For the last couple of years, Sony has been slowly bringing more of its first-party PlayStation games to PC to improve sales. Since then, Sony has remained on a two-year cadence between the PlayStation release of new titles and the eventual PC version. While we had hoped that Sony may look to speed this process up a bit after the success of Helldivers 2, the company has confirmed that to not be the case.
