UPDATE (08/01/25, 9:05 AM GMT): VG247 has recieved an additional statement from Tencent in which the company said the following:
]]>Honey, wake up, another blatant rip-off just dropped, and this one is bound to cause legal troubles sooner rather than later. Tencent Games and subsidiary Polaris Quest have just announced Light of Motiram, a 'legally distinct' take on PlayStation's Horizon series. The biggest surprise? It's an MMO coming exclusively to PC (for now).
]]>Following a bit of a delay, the Delta Force: Hawk Ops PC alpha test has officially kicked off in the West. An older version of the game has been playable for quite some time in Asia, but this is the first time Western players have been able to get their hands on it.
]]>Suggesting that a Chinese company is trying to copy the success of a major Western competitor by creating its own version of its product is a timeless statement that doesn’t require any context. It’s not that uncommon in the realm of video games – there was a very high-profile case regarding Overwatch and a Chinese clone, for example, as well as more recent takes on Hearthstone and Palworld and Valorant. Yes, this trend has been getting a little more brazen lately.
]]>As promised, Delta Force: Hawk Ops dropped a new trailer during Summer Game Fest’s opening showcase. This one was teased a couple of weeks ago, if you’ve been keeping up, so we were happy to see it on the show.
]]>Following a report which suggested Hasbro had been in discussions with Tencent and Baldur's Gate 3 developer Larian regarding a planned sale of the Dungeons & Dragons IP, Wizards of the Coast has denied that it’s looking to execute such a sale.
]]>At The Game Awards 2023 this evening, Lightspeed LA announced its debut game, Last Sentinel.
]]>With the number of games being published every day on Steam, it's easy to feel a sense of deja vu every time you check the new releases page. Everyone has run into their fair share of hentai abominations, cheap mobile ports, achievement-farming games, and the unending barrage of asset flips – all seemingly releasing in bulk.
]]>The Delta Force name is one old timers will be very familiar with, and it's an IP that's been dormant for years. Delta Force is the original PC tactical shooter series, though you could mistake today's reveal trailer for any other modern shooter, if not for the name.
]]>The developers behind Tarisland have told VG247 that it stands by its game as "an original MMORPG with a fresh IP", following numerous comparisons to World of Warcraft were made towards the game earlier this year.
]]>Welcome to VG247's Best Games Ever Podcast: Episode 40 - The best game with the most juvenile feature.
]]>Upcoming Twitter API (Application programming interface) changes may leave many Gacha players locked out of accounts for Genshin Impact, Goddess of Victory: Nikke, and other games, causing several developers to urge their users to link emails to their accounts instead.
]]>FromSoftware, the Japanese studio that went from a niche developer that produces mini-hits, to the creator of Elden Ring - 2022's best-selling game so far - is and has been a hot target for acquisition and acquisition speculation.
]]>Chinese conglomerate Tencent has plans to acquire more shares in Ubisoft, according to sources familiar with the matter.
]]>Logitech G and Tencent Games have announced a partnership to bring a cloud gaming handheld to market.
]]>Kotaku reports that according to the latest year in review report from stream tools company StreamElements, Grand Theft Auto 5 is the most watched game on Twitch, dominating a chart full of games that have solidly lodged themselves at the top for multiple years running.
