With the Overwatch 2 closed beta nearly upon us, Blizzard has now finally begun releasing some actually interesting new information. A short while ago they revealed Sojourn's backstory and motivation, and now they have detailed what exactly this new DPS hero is even capable of!
Without further ado, allow me to share with you the brief gameplay trailer showing off her abilities, as well as an equally brief rundown of what each of them really does. Have a look:

[Update]: The Legend of Runersia has now arrived onto PC, and as expected, it's quite the tricky one!
If you're in the mood for some oldschool turn-based tactics action, you might want to keep an eye on the upcoming Brigandine: The Legend of Runersia. After spending nearly two years on PlayStation 4 and Switch, The Legend of Runersia and its vast quantities of units will be coming to PC via Steam on May 11th, 2022.
Since gameplay is king when it comes to turn-based tactics games, allow me to share with you the recently posted trailer. It should give you a pretty good idea of what The Legend of Runersia is trying to do. Have a gander:
No Man's Sky's new Outlaws update is all about space combat and skirting the rule of law

[Update #2]: No Man’s Sky's Update 4.0 is all about fine-tuning your gameplay experience and level of challenge.
[Update]: No Man's Sky's July Endurance update has overhauled freighters and added strange organic frigates.
No Man's Sky's previous Sentinel update overhauled ground combat and added new robotic AI companions, and now the freshly released Outlaws update has done something very similar for space combat! As such, you're now able to recruit roaming pilots into your squadron, manage and train them to improve their skills and efficiency, and then have them accompany you in large-scale battles or simply to watch the fancy new destruction effects for ships, asteroids, freighters and space cargo.
There are now also outlaw stations scattered throughout the galaxy, completely devoid of any authority or protection. While potentially dangerous, these outlaw stations are a great place to acquire new technology, trade with contraband items, as well as undertake a variety of new missions. And if you're so inclined, you can also attempt to smuggle some of these ill-gotten goods to other systems for a large profit... provided you can manage to avoid getting caught by the Sentinel authorities!

[Update]: Hearthstone's March of the Lich King expansion has added a brand new class - the Death Knight.
After a whole bunch of teasers and previews, Hearthstone's Voyage to the Sunken City expansion has now finally arrived. It brings with it a boatload of new cards including creatures so gigantic they simply can't fit on a single one, Naga as an interesting new minion type to experiment with, as well as a whole bunch of changes to the Core Set.
First things first, allow me to share with you the rather unique cinematic trailer alongside a brief rundown of the three main new keywords and mechanics:
Final Fantasy XIV's Patch 6.1 has begun a brand new story chapter as well as reworked PvP

[Update]: Final Fantasy XIV's major Patch 6.3 is set to launch on January 10th, 2023 with a whole bunch of new content.
With the main storyline now concluded thanks to the Endwalker expansion, it's time for Final Fantasy XIV to head towards a brand new adventure. As such, thanks to the freshly released Patch 6.1, you can expect to see an assortment of new Main Scenario quests that will have your character return to the humble and carefree life of an adventurer... at least for a short while anyway!
Besides the new storyline, Patch 6.1 has also fully reworked PvP actions in order to make things simpler to control and understand, yet more complex to master. Similarly, maximum HP, MP and damage modifiers have been rebalanced across the board, while all incoming and outgoing damage will now be completely predictable and no longer subject to RNG. Add to that a brand new 5v5 game mode by the name of Crystalline Conflict, and you've got yourself quite the PvP update!

[Update #2]: Overwatch 2's closed beta has now begun, and soon everyone will be able to jump in.
[Update]: As expected, Blizzard has now detailed Sojourns abilities and playstyle!
Almost exactly two years have gone by since Echo joined the Overwatch roster, so in order to celebrate this little anniversary Blizzard has now decided to reveal some lore about one of the new heroes - Sojourn. While the actual gameplay details are still mostly rooted in rumors and speculation, we at least have a shred of information about Sojourn's backstory!
So if you're curious what she's all about, as well as what her role in Overwatch was before she moved on, you can find your answers in the origin trailer below. Have a gander:
Back 4 Blood's Tunnels of Terror expansion has now arrived with new characters and enemies

[Update #2]: Back 4 Blood will not be getting any more content updates as Turtle Rock Studios are now working on a brand new game.
[Update]: Back 4 Blood's Children of the Worm expansion has now added a new story chapter, enemies and more.
Many months and balance updates have gone by, but Back 4 Blood's very first bit of new content has now finally arrived. The freshly released Tunnels of Terror DLC brings with it two new characters, three new zombie variants, as well as Ridden Hives that serve as optional PvE challenges you can dive as you push through the story campaign.
You can also expect to see some fancy new player and weapon skins, new legendary weapons and attachments, as well as a variety of cards to help spice up the gameplay. The one bit of bad news is that the DLC has has not added any new maps or campaign levels to explore, so outside of the brief excursions into the Ridden Hives you're mostly going to be slicing and dicing your way across the same old locations.
