About two weeks ago, Blizzard announced that their first ever shooter, Overwatch, would be entering its closed beta period. Problem is, part of the announcement stated that when the closed beta launched on October the 27th, it would only be available in the Americas region. That's no longer the case...

News on the Overwatch beta has finally surfaced. Access to Blizzard's first ever FPS will begin rolling out in the American region from October the 27th, with others following thereafter. Keen to get in on the action? Apply for access now!

Keen to try out Battleborn? If you're a ShiFT member, you can apply for access. A closed technical test will be happening soon, where Gearbox will test out various facets of the game in preparation for its release on February the 9th.

Team Fortress 2 really has stood the test of time. Even though it came out way back in 2007, it continues to receive relevant, awesome updates and themed events from Valve. Heck, they don’t even have to do the work half the time, because the community are always keen to get involved. Take ‘The Invasion Update’ for example; it’s a timed Halloween event that is entirely community created, and now available to enjoy.

First-person shooters, ain’t going nowhere! But which one is the best? When you take a game or a franchise and boil it down to its essence, which one stands tall over the countless others?

Overwatch is due to hit a beta period any week now, or so Blizzard would have us believe. They've now announced two new characters for their shooter, swelling the character count even further!

Luke Skywalker is just one of many Hero characters that will be on offer in Star Wars Battlefront, and he's still coming to terms with his new Jedi powers.

Get a good look at how Lawbreakers plays when it's just regular people like you and me behind the controls. It looks surprisingly fantastic still.
