The Monster Hunter inspired God Eater 3 will be arriving this February 8th for PC and PlayStation 4. It'll bring with it a variety of giant monsters to smack around, some equally gigantic weapons to do said smacking with, a seemingly lengthy singleplayer campaign, and perhaps most interestingly of all, a multiplayer mode that will allow up to eight players to fight together, all depending on the strength of the monster itself.
While the recently posted trailer unfortunately doesn't showcase much of that kind of multiplayer madness, it will still give you a decent idea of what God Eater 3's co-op mode will be about. So if you're curious, have a peek:

Dead or Alive 6 was originally supposed to release this February 15th for PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4, but according to Koei Tecmo's recent announcement, that has now been pushed back to March 1st. The reason for the delay, as you might imagine, is to ensure both the gameplay and visuals are as polished as possible.
While there are no further details about the delay itself, you can get a pretty good idea of what to expect from Dead or Alive 6, as well as what it's doing to differentiate itself from its predecessors, by checking out the recent "Combat and features" trailer. Have a gander:

Despite World of Warcraft's Tides of Vengeance patch arriving in early December, the most important part of the update, the Battle for Dazar'alor raid, was delayed in order to give everyone enough time to enjoy the holiday season. Now that February is nearly upon us, I am glad to say that Battle for Dazar'alor has finally opened up its doors.
Right now only the Normal and Heroic difficulties are available, while the Mythic difficulty will be making its way here on January 29th alongside the first Raid Finder wing. As for the second and third wings, they will become available on February 12th and 26th respectively.

The third annual Lunar New Year event will be coming to Overwatch a little bit sooner than expected. Instead of the usual mid-February release date, the event will be coming today (January 24th) with a bunch of new skins to collect, all of the previous Lunar New Year cosmetics, and most likely competitive capture-the-flag.
While the details are still few and far between, I am glad to say that Blizzard has now released teasers for quite a few of the upcoming skins. A good chunk of them are themed after the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, so expect to see a whole bunch of cool armor and surprisingly comical beards! The quality is unfortunately a little bit low as the Twitter videos are heavily compressed, but you should still get a pretty good impression of what each skin is all about. Have a peek:
