The Game Awards took place this Thursday, and like every year, it was packed with trailers for both new and already announced upcoming games. Oh, and some awards were handed out also.

Released in 2013, the WB Games Montréal developed Batman: Arkham Origins was unjustly seen as a stepping stone to the Rocksteady Studios developed sequel to Batman: Arkham City which would be unveiled in early 2014 as Batman: Arkham Knight. While it had its champions at launch – I consider myself among them – time has…
Gamescom 2025 is officially underway having kicked off with the over 2-hour Opening Night Live presentation yesterday.
