[Update]: The Destroy All Humans! 2 remake has now been unleashed onto PC and consoles.
If you're in the mood for some ridiculously over-the-top violence starring a permanently perturbed alien, you might want to check out the newly launched Destroy All Humans! remake. It brings with it greatly improved visuals and effects, the long-rumored Area 42 mission, an assortment of unique and frequently obscene weaponry, and most importantly of all, the same style of cheesy humor as the original.
You can get a pretty good idea of what this kind of madness looks like in gameplay terms through one of the recent trailers. Have a peek, it's a certainly a wacky one:

[Update]: Overwatch's Halloween Terror 2020 event has arrived alongside an assortment of awesome cosmetics, as well as the Soldier 76 weapon rework!
[Update]: Blizzard is finally taking a serious look at reversing the rampant power creep in Overwatch!
With very little forewarning, Blizzard has now unleashed the Overwatch Summer Games 2020 event. The new update brings with it an assortment of new cosmetics to collect, some nice quality of life improvements, three new challenges to complete over the course of the next three weeks, as well as major changes for the Lucioball game mode.
Since the cosmetics are by far the most exciting part of the update, allow me to share with you the recently posted teaser trailer. Have a gander, it's a pretty fun one:
Obsidian's miniaturized survival game Grounded has recently launched into Early Access

[Update #2]: After two years of updates, Grounded has now finally been unleashed from Early Access!
[Update]: Grounded's newest update has added a massive bird and a new perk system!
In a bit of an unusual, though not unwelcome twist, Obsidian has decided to set their newest survival game Grounded not on some sort of bizarre alien planet, but rather in a completely average backyard. The catch, as you might imagine, is that you will be exploring this backyard while shrunk down to the size of an ant!
This kind of miniaturized predicament brings with it a whole new set of challenges and enemies to face off against, as well as an entirely new perspective on the world around you. I just hope you don't mind spiders since they can be absolutely terrifying when they're three times your size and potentially hiding in any sort of nook or cranny!
Valorant update has added the new Agent Killjoy and FFA deathmatch

[Update]: Newest Valorant update has nerfed Sage and Killjoy, as well as finally buffed the Vandal!
After briefly teasing her a few days ago, Valorant devs have now unleashed the very first post-launch Agent - Killjoy. The German robotics expert brings with her an automated turret, an alarm-bot to help secure flanks, as well as a remotely detonated bomb that deals a considerable amount of damage over time. Perhaps most interestingly of all, her ultimate is a device that takes a long time to get going, but once it fires its pulse, every enemy within range will lose the ability to do anything other than scurry away in fear!
You can get a pretty good idea of what all of this looks in gameplay terms through the recently posted Agent trailer. Have a gander, Killjoy is certainly an odd one:
Overwatch Summer Games 2020 update is arriving today with new Legendary skins

[Update]: The Summer Games 2020 event is now live, and while it hasn't brought in a brand new game mode, it has greatly improved Lucioball!
While Blizzard used to tease upcoming events weeks in advance, these past few months they have taken the completely opposite approach. As such, it might come as a bit of a surprise to hear that the Overwatch Summer Games 2020 event has now not only been announced, but also set to release today!
Because of the short timeframe before release, the full list of new cosmetics is still unknown. However, the two Legendary skins Blizzard has revealed so far are absolutely gorgeous, especially the Lifeguard Pharah one! You can find the two brief teasers over at Twitter, and while they're sadly a bit low quality, they will give you a pretty good taste of what is to come.
Overwatch update has added experimental Assault (2CP) changes and minor Genji nerfs

[Update]: Overwatch devs have launched an experimental update to address the Double Shield meta.
Out of all the game modes in Overwatch, Assault (2CP) is by far the least popular, and for good reason. Assault games frequently end up as either one-sided stomps or eternal stalemates, all the while the intentionally unfair spawning points make each death incredibly frustrating.
Blizzard has tried to fix this game mode many times before, but while they have improved it slightly, it still remains a bit of a sore spot for many players. With that in mind, you might be interested to hear that Blizzard hasn't given up on the game mode just yet! Instead, they are internally working on a whole bunch of variations in order to figure out just what works, what doesn't, and what can still be salvaged.

[Update #2]: Shadow Warrior 3's pre-launch preview shows off wacky enemies, even more bad jokes and loads of colorful explosions!
[Update]: It's official, Shadow Warrior 3 will be launching on March 1, 2022!
Much like its predecessors, the upcoming Shadow Warrior 3 will be a fast-paced combination of melee and ranged combat, ridiculous enemies and way, way too many puns for a single person to bear. In terms of improvements, however, Shadow Warrior 3 is also bringing in a grappling hook to even further emphasize mobility and aggression, far more colorful levels to explore and ransack, and naturally, even more over-the-top weaponry to toy around with.
As for what exactly all of this looks like in gameplay terms, that you can find out through the recently posted and rather lengthy preview. Have a gander, it's a pretty fun one:
