Is it Rogaine? [Update: A logo forHitman 2has been foundon the WB Games website.] With E3 hype season getting into full swing, we’re bound to be getting a crapton of teasers and rumors floating around the internet this week. Not content to let fans make up information, IO Interactive has released an official teaser for the future ofHitmanand it is pretty damn vague. All the tweet gives us is a June 02, 2025 date and the text, “Your next target is…” While this could be a new game in the series, it could also be more DLC for the hit 2016 title....

‘You know what’d make me feel better? If you gave me your money, pops’ [Update:A few more very minor details have come through. The games will run at 1080p and 60 FPS. They will, content-wise, be mostly unchanged from their original releases. Pre-ordering the first release,Yakuza 3(in Japan) will also bag you the original soundtrack.] In a move that makes complete sense, Sega have announced that PS3 titlesYakuza 3, Yakuza 4andYakuza 5will all be coming to PS4 in Japan within the next 12 months....

For the wild at heart A new patch forBaldur’s Gate 3goes live today, adding more features to the Early Access RPG. And while the addition of the Barbarian class might be the big-ticket item, it’s the user interface overhauls and more that have really caught my eye. Baldur’s Gate 3Patch 7, dubbed “Absolute Frenzy,” brings the chaotic and furious Barbarian class into the roster of options. Within Barbarian are two subclasses, Wildheart and Berserker....

Some intrepid fans have been able to reproduce the lost tracks from the BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2 Satellaview SoundLink event and have createdBS F-Zero Deluxe, a patch to incorporate them into the SNES game. The Satellaview was a digital satellite delivery (or broadcast) add-on for the Super Famicom. Like many prototypical digital distribution platforms, data retrieved from the service was only stored temporarily and could be overwritten whenever you downloaded something else....

He’s a totally outrageous paradigm Accolade – a name that immediately teleports me back to the halcyon days of 1992 – has announced that the latest release featuring maligned hero Bubsy Bobcat will be arriving on PC and PC next week. Bubsy: Paws on Fire!is the sixth entry in the character’s canon, following on from his not-so-spectacular comeback in 2017’sBubsy: The Woolies Strike Back.Paws of Fire!sees the wisecracking feline in an adventure which combines elements of “runner” titles, with platform adventures and even the shmup genre....

“DLC and add-on content is not supported when streaming a title,” according to Sony Every day, we’re learning something new about what we can — and crucially can’t — expect from the tiered PlayStation Plus revamp launching on June 13 in North America. Today, it’s a caveat about the subscription’s streamable PS3 games: namely, you won’t be able to access any of their DLC. This was an issue before with cloud-based games played viaPlayStation Now, and it’ll still be present with PlayStation Plus Premium....

Earlier this month, the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) had sent warnings to six different companies that their “Warranty Void if Removed” stickers on hardware were actually illegal. These stickers had been voiding a1975 Actthat stated no manufacturer of a product over $5 could put repair restrictions on a device they offered a warranty for. Now, the FTC is giving these companies 30 days to remove these labels from future products before they take legal action....

PAX Australia — which will once again be hosted at the Melbourne Convention Centre from October 26-28 — is just around the corner, and thanks to the lovely folks handling PR for PAX, we’ve got five Sunday badges to give away to a handful of lucky Destructoid readers. Would you want to see an AustralianFalloutgame just to see how you’d fare against an onslaught of irradiated dropbears?...

I was there! Four days ago,Blizzard told us how theWorld of Warcraft: Shadowlandsexpansion might go. For once, they were optimistic! Having been a part of countless launches throughout my life (including the original Xbox Live, which was one of the most fun), it’s smart to expect the worst. For many an MMO launch it’s common for the game to be completely offline that entire day, followed by a bottleneck situation where everyone is trying to log in at the exact same time....

Shocking, I know Over the last few days while playingGTA Onlineon PC, a message window wasbeing displayed in-gameabout the release ofGrand Theft Auto VI. It had an official Rockstar logo and everything and made people wonder what was going on. While I’m pretty certain Rockstar is actually developing the next entry in its car stealing simulator, the studio is gearing up to releaseRed Dead Redemption 2this November. There is no way they would cannibalize the sales of one game with the release of another in such a short span....

Return of the Dragon Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios unleashed two trailers for the upcomingRyu Ga Gotoku Online(akaYakuza Online) at TGS yesterday and it contains one hell of a sight for fans of the series. Apparently, Haruka has had enough of everyone’s nonsense, because she actually judo throws a guy down to the ground. Maybe hanging around Kiryu for the better part of a decade has rubbed off on her? Speaking of Kiryu, he makes an appearance at the end and boy does it look epic....
