The sci-fi genre has undergone a massive evolution throughout the history of gaming, with open-world games becoming the ideal medium in terms of immersion and world-building. Credit is still owed to early titles that were limited by technology, and though they relied on simple visuals and procedural systems to create the illusion of enormous universes, the sense of free exploration laid the groundwork for what followed.

I'm ecstatic about the new games coming to Xbox Game Pass today, January 21, not because I'm a subscriber (I'm not, at the moment), but because more people will have an opportunity to try one of my favorite games, Death Stranding. Game Pass's January 2026 lineup is incredibly strong with the likes of Resident Evil Village, Ninja Gaiden Ragebound, and Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, but the headliner is Death Stranding, a brilliant former PlayStation exclusive and one of the best games of all time.

There are a lot of key story details and interesting lore facts about Death Stranding's world you may have missed, whether you played it six years ago when it first came out, played it but never finished it, or simply never touched Death Stranding in the first place.

It's Official: Death Stranding Is Getting Its Own Anime Ahead of Its Live-Action Debut

Hideo Kojima has never been one to follow conventions, and now he is proving it again, because the visionary creator behind Death Stranding is expanding the game’s eerie, genre-bending universe with not one, but two ambitious adaptations.

Both projects are designed to stand apart from traditional game-to-screen adaptations, hinting at Kojima’s deeper creative ambitions.

I’m More Annoyed By Assassin’s Creed Shadows Exploration After Revisiting A 2019 GOTY Contender

Ben Brosofsky — Thu, 10 Apr 2025 16:10:19 GMT

I've gotten a lot of joy out of running around central Japan in Assassin's Creed Shadows, but it has its fair share of frustrations. Exploration in an open-world Ubisoft game is never quite on the level of Breath of the Wild or Elden Ring, and it's no surprise that Shadows often fails to reward the act of traveling off the beaten path. While the sightseeing is gorgeous enough for me to forgive that, I occasionally found myself disappointed by the monotony of clambering up brush-laden hillsides as I tracked down a new objective.
