It’s never the kind of stream we like to do at OPTV, but as part of our coverage of the highs and the lows of our genre, MOP’s Chris will be live this afternoon for part of the final weekend of Anthem before it goes offline for good. Join him today at 2:00 p.m. EST […]

Last year we started peeking in on Towerborne, a side-scrolling multiplayer online “looter brawler” from developer Stoic Games and published by Xbox Game Studios. The game started life in paid-for early access and was angling for a free-to-play release. MOP’s Sam found the game to be right up his arcade-loving alley, and we even streamed […]

The post-holiday portion of the winter season can often feel like a moment of hibernation and calm, and that appears to be what Palia is going to be leaning in to when it puts forth its Winter’s Wonder: Snowbound Sanctuary content patch on Tuesday, January 13th. At least that’s part of the vibe exuded by […]

Back in 2024 we first started reporting on Starship Simulator, an in-development multiplayer spaceship sim from indie Fleetyard Studios that pretty much offers precisely what a game of its name suggests. The title had a pretty successful Kickstarter round, raising nearly $500K, while development updates have been offered since, along with the release of a […]

In the middle of last year we first started reporting on Sea of Remnants, an upcoming Age of Sail-styled RPG promising “vibrant graffiti energy” from developer Joker Studio and publisher NetEase that casts players as a wooden puppet-like wanderer who awakes with no memories in the piratical island of Orbopia. Indeed, in our own early […]

The winter season is also bringing the next season of updates to Overwatch 2, as the game’s newest DPS character, the return and update of Winter Wonderland, and adjustments to the pseudo-sequel’s more popular modes is set to arrive on Tuesday, December 9th. As one might expect, one of the highlights for Season 20 is […]

If nothing else, we can at least be generally assured that The First Descendant will have things going on between now and the first half of next year. That’s thanks to details from the latest livestream as Nexon talked up the content that’s arriving sometime in December (moments away, apparently) and laid out a roadmap […]

Dressing up your little robot guy in the early access co-op horror title R.E.P.O. normally would involve players downloading and installing mods, which is fine but isn’t exactly the most ideal situation possible. However, that’s going to change in the game’s next major update, as developer semiwork has announced that cosmetics are on their way […]

Players of the co-op action RPG Elden Ring Nightreign have been extremely busy since the game made its release this past spring, and with the game’s first major DLC just on the horizon this week, Bandai Namco is taking a moment to demonstrate just how much has been going on Limveld with an infographic full […]

War Thunder is looking towards the future. Or at least what it’s doing next month and somewhere down the line after that, anyway, as Gaijin Entertainment has outlined what players can expect in the December update and answered several burning questions from among its playerbase. The update due sometime in December does appear to be […]

A game like Titan Quest II doesn’t really lend itself to pastoral pursuits too well, so you would be forgiven for thinking that something called a Forge mastery would be a bit comparatively dull. However, the Forge mastery line coming to the multiplayer-optional ARPG acts a little bit differently – and with a more mythical […]

Once again, Fellowship is tinkering with existing content, but the adjustments in question are being done in service to the December 11th patch that’s bringing Eternal queue. That’s the ability to queue for Eternal difficulty delves, not a suggestion that players will queue eternally. Even if it might feel that way for DPS players right […]

With her Planet Crafter base is more organized, Massively OP’s MJ can focused on more important matters. Matters like opening a bakery at the end of the galaxy!

The big stompy mech suit that’s central to your survival sandbox life in the multiplayer title Lightyear Frontier is already pretty handy and multi-duty, but now it’s getting a bunch of additional functionality thanks to the Country Roads update, which effectively lets players haul even more than before thanks to trailers and custom roads.

For those who love the class fantasy of being capable of wielding the wild in combat against evil, you’ve been kind of starved for that choice in Path of Exile 2 thus far.

While Elite: Dangerous probably would have liked it if players had paid attention to all of the updates it has planned for the rest of 2025 and early 2026, what most fans seemed to zero in on was the Dodec space station arriving on November 11th for colonies, which was slated to be a one-time […]
