If there's still one thing we can count on in this unpredictable world, it's that Target and Amazon will never stop competing with each other over sales. Two days after Amazon officially confirmed Prime Day 2020, Target has announced a major sale of its own. Target Deal Days returns this year with a blowout sale offering online deals on hundreds of thousands of items. Oh, and it takes place October 13 and 14, which, coincidentally, are the same days as Prime Day.Target Deal Days 2020 marks the beginning of a holiday shopping season that will include "Black Friday pricing" throughout the entire month of November, according to a press release. This clarifies a previous statement Target had made saying that its "biggest holiday deals" would be available starting in October; now, it seems, Black Friday branding won't begin until November as usual.Still, we expect Target Deal Days will offer some great deals as it did last year. Notably, Target had a rare deal on 12-month Switch Online family memberships last year, dropping them to $28 each. It also included cheap Xbox One console bundles that came with $50 Target gift cards, the PlayStation Classic for 20 bucks, and various discounts on both physical and digital games, so it'll be worth keeping an eye on what the sale offers this year. Nearly all deals will be available with Target's contactless Drive Up and Order Pickup options as well if you want to pick up your order right away, and some deals will even be eligible for same-day delivery. An early batch of Target Deal Days offers will be available starting October 5.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Blizzard has revealed a new development update for Diablo IV that details the reworks being done to the game's skills and talents system."We've been reading through a lot of the comments from the community and agree that the talent system needs more depth," Diablo IV lead systems designer David Kim wrote in a blog post. "Similarly, skill system progression felt too simple, which created issues where a player would have no meaningful reason to spend their skill points."So now, skills and passive abilities exist in separate sections of the skill tree. By leveling up, you'll earn skill points that you can then spend to unlock certain skills, additional abilities for the skills you already have, and passive points. With passive points, you can unlock new passive abilities for your character.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

There is often a fine line between classy and garish when it comes to expensive video game merchandise. Thankfully, the latest range of pricey Bloodborne items from Japanese collection SuperGroupies lands squarely on the side of the former, with a stunning Astral Clocktower-inspired watch as the biggest draw.The mechanical wristwatch features a genuine leather strap and the Bloodborne name on its back, but outside of that it's difficult to recognize it as video game-inspired if you're not familiar with the construction of the Astral Clocktower. Featured in Bloodborne's The Old Hunters DLC and home to one of the game's best bosses, the tower is replicated with gorgeous layers of metal, along with an animated window that slowly transitions from a sun to a moon as the day goes by.Diehard fans of Bloodborne might scoff at the fact that the Astral Clocktower was never designed to tell time, but that doesn't prevent this from being an alluring piece, even if it does cost 30,000 Japanese Yen (around $285).Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

When the PlayStation Store page for Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time launched, it revealed that the game would support offline multiplayer for 2-4 players. In an interview with GameSpot, Toys For Bob's co-studio head Paul Yan revealed more details about the upcoming game's competitive and co-op multiplayer modes."Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time is at its core a single player game," Yan explained. "However we've added some new modes for players to compete or cooperate locally by taking turns and passing the controller between rounds."Both the competitive and co-op modes will work on a pass-the-controller basis. The competitive mode is called Bandicoot Battle and involves two separate mini-games for players to race against their friends in. "Two to four players can compete head-to-head on any level of their choosing," Yan explained. "Either by racing to be the first to the next checkpoint in 'Checkpoint Races' or by achieving the biggest combo of crates for the highest score in 'Crate Combo'."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Perhaps the primary appeal of the wildly popular Among Us is its social element, which would partly explain why the two-year-old game didn't quite take off until quarantine began in March of this year. We now know that Among Us' massive popularity is actually having a ripple effect for another social-oriented product under lockdown. According to Apptopia, the chat client Discord is raking in about 800,000 new installs per day thanks to the growing audience for Among Us.Discord's recent growth spike was aided first by nationwide shutdowns as COVID-19 cases began to rise earlier in the year, forcing many to seek alternate, no-contact ways to socialize. As lockdown continued and Among Us began to rise in popularity, so too did Discord's download rates. You can see the worldwide daily download rates for both Among Us and Discord in Apptopia's chart below.Among Us and Discord's daily download rates between July and September 2020, from Apptopia.Based on Apptopia's data, "Discord has been hitting a new lifetime high for mobile app downloads every day since September 5th." You can get a better idea of just how high that is in Apptopia's second chart below, which shows both the initial spike in downloads around the start of the pandemic ("hockey stick like growth," according to Apptopia) and the second spike as Among Us began to take off a few months later. At this point, that's about 800,000 new Discord downloads per day.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Predator: Hunting Grounds developer IllFonic has released new content for the multiplayer title, adding a new map and a PvP mode. The new mode, called Clash, pits teams of four against each other, but it still keeps the Predator element that gives the game its namesake intact.According to the announcement, rounds of Clash last about 15 minutes and the teams are tasked with taking a series of control points. But while you're battling, you'll also be slowly filling your Predator meter, and once it's filled up one teammate will become the hunter. That grants you the superpowered abilities you'll recognize from the Hunt mode, but you don't get a second wind or target isolation tools.The update also includes a new map called Excavation, which features the usual jungle biome alongside a more vertical multi-level cave. It's built to create confrontations in narrow chokepoints, which facilitates the Predator's hunting style.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

While 2006's Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan was a huge hit, so it's no surprise there is a follow-up coming, even if it is 14 years later. According to a report from Deadline, Amazon Studios has purchased a new Borat movie, and it will be out before Election Day in the United States.A filing with the WGA, which has now been deleted, stated the full title of the film is Borat: Gift of Pornographic Monkey to Vice Premiere Mikhael Pence to Make Benefit Recently Diminished Nation of Kazakhstan (via The Film Stage). Although the world is in the middle of a pandemic, the film, as indicated by a Deadline report, was shot quickly after unions agreed on production reopening for movies.The movie has been rushed to be ready before Election Day and because many movie theaters are still closed or not at full capacity, reports indicate the Borat sequel will be on Amazon Prime before the end of October. However, it is unclear if this will be free to Amazon Prime Video subscribers, a rental, or purchase.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

As Godfall's November 12 launch date for PlayStation 5 inches closer, publisher Gearbox Software shared a new cinematic trailer for the game filled with betrayal and disillusionment.The cinematic trailer, embedded below, features a monologue by some gruff-voiced warrior named Orin. It seems Orin and some former comrade-in-arms, Macros, ended up turning on each other in an effort to end some unnamed war. It ends with a grand face-off between Macros and Orin in some cathedral tower, with Macros coming out the victor after tossing Orin off the cliff face.During the climactic fight, Macros and Orin swap between a variety of weapons. An August 2020 PS5 gameplay overview revealed that there are five weapon-types in total: Longswords, Dual Blades, Polearms, two-handed Warhammers, and two-handed Greatswords.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

There's nothing quite like sitting at a table with friends or family to play a new board game, and these days, there are so many fantastic board games out there that offer complex and interesting gameplay to engross you. Gone are the days when Monopoly and Scrabble were the main options; now, we've got huge legacy games like Gloomhaven and Pandemic that span multiple sessions, asymmetrical war games like Root that require mastery of multiple factions, and Kickstarter campaigns that spawn truly unique tabletop experiences like Fog of Love, a romantic comedy in board game form. Tabletop role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons and collectible card games like Magic: The Gathering are still massively popular as well, with new books, card sets, and other products released regularly.If you're shopping for a board game fan this holiday season, you might not know where to start when it comes to modern tabletop gaming, but fortunately, we've got you covered. Here are some of the best board games, card games, and accessories to gift to someone who can't get enough of tabletop gaming. Most of these games feature in our guide to the best board games we've played, so give that a look for more info on specific games. Gloomhaven Gloomhaven released to widespread acclaim in 2017, and it still maintains the No. 1 spot on BoardGameGeek, the top online community for board gamers. A co-op game for one to four players, Gloomhaven is a fantasy dungeon-crawler where you navigate your unit across a tile-based map, defeating enemies and picking up loot. The cards in your hand at any given time determine what actions you can take, including attacking, moving, and healing, and you draw a modifier card while attacking to determine damage. As someone who finds tabletop RPGs like D&D and Pathfinder a bit overwhelming, I've greatly enjoyed Gloomhaven and find its overall gameplay much easier to digest. It's critically acclaimed for a reason, and for someone who's into tactical combat and light role-playing, Gloomhaven will be a wonderful surprise to unwrap this Christmas. See at Amazon Pandemic Legacy This may seem like a morbid addition to the list in light of COVID-19, but Pandemic has been a favorite in the board game community for years, currently sitting at No. 2 (right behind Gloomhaven) on BoardGameGeek. This co-op board game casts you and other players as scientists working to discover cures to several diseases that have broken out across the world. Each player has a unique role, such as researcher or medic, and special abilities that will be key to strategically moving around the world and preventing outbreaks. The legacy version of Pandemic is the one to get, which simply means it's designed to be played over many sessions, with an overarching storyline and permanent changes to the game occurring as you play. See at Amazon King of Tokyo Perfect for someone obsessed with kaiju films, King of Tokyo lets you play as one of six giant monsters: Alienoid, Space Penguin, Giga Zaur, Cyber Kitty, Mega Dragon, and The King. The goal: Become the one and only King of Tokyo by either being the first to destroy the city or the only surviving monster. King of Tokyo is easy to learn and a great game for the entire family. See at Amazon Azul Azul is a tile-drafting game that tasks you with embellishing the walls of a king's palace using ornate tiles known as azulejos. You draw colored tiles and score points based on how you've placed them to decorate the palace, earning extra points for collecting sets or creating certain patterns. As in other games where drafting plays a central role, the tiles you pick in Azul will directly affect what other players can take, which adds to the game's strategy and competition. See at Amazon Wingspan This stunning game about being a bird enthusiast was an instant hit when it released in 2019, selling out fast when it first launched. Published by Stonemaier Games, the same team behind Scythe, Wingspan is an engine-building game about attracting the best birds to your wildlife preserves. Adding a new bird has costs, but the more birds you add, the more powerful your actions will become, and specific birds also grant unique abilities and perks. Your goal is to earn the most points through completing end-of-round goals, playing bird cards, accumulating eggs, and more. Wingspan is also known for its gorgeous art style and the fun facts about each bird species at the bottom of cards, adding a nice educational aspect if you're buying for the family. The board game became so popular that a digital edition has already been released on Steam and is planned for Nintendo Switch as well, but if they're new to Wingspan, the physical board game makes a fantastic gift. See at Amazon Patchwork Tetris fans will find a lot to love about Patchwork, a game about creating a beautiful quilt by strategically drawing and placing tiles that will earn you the most points. You'll purchase tiles using buttons, the currency of the game, and players' progress is kept track of on a separate time board, which nets you more buttons and tiles as you progress. By the end of the game, you score based on how many buttons you have left and subtract points for empty tiles on your board, making placement of the Tetris-like tiles a strategic matter. Patchwork is a fun, simple, and relaxing board game that many puzzle game fans would enjoy, and it's great for someone who lives with just one other person, as it's made for two players. See at Amazon Scythe The most annoying thing about loving board games is that you generally need other people to play with--and that's not always easy to organize. Scythe is a board game that can be played completely alone (or with up to five players) and has a highly developed solo system with well-designed AI opponents. Set in an alternate version of the 1920s, Scythe is an engine-building game about conquering territory, enlisting recruits, gathering resources, and growing the overall strength of your faction. See at Amazon Betrayal at House on the Hill Perfect for fans of horror and suspense, Betrayal at House on the Hill is a game for three to six players that follows a group of characters as they enter a creepy mansion and begin exploring its rooms. Everyone is on the same team--at first. Eventually, an event will be triggered that causes one player to betray the others, and the game becomes a race against the clock as the remaining players and the betrayer each hatch a plan to achieve their win conditions first. For the base game, 50 possible scenarios are possible, and the expansion, Widow's Walk, adds 50 more scenarios (along with new rooms, items, and more). With its thrilling storylines and high level of replayability, Betrayal at House on the Hill is one of the best board games you could pick up as a gift--and that's coming from someone who was personally gifted Betrayal for Christmas and subsequently spent the entire holiday playing it over and over. See at Amazon Fog of Love Fog of Love is a two-player board game that's like starring in a romantic comedy. Each player creates their own unique character (some role-playing is involved), and over the course of the game, the two characters will meet, fall in love, and face obstacles as their relationship develops. Based on the story you choose and the characters' respective traits and longterm goals, the game can end any number ways--and that ending isn't always happy. Funded entirely on Kickstarter, Fog of Love is a unique and entertaining game, especially for couples looking for something to do on an indoor date night. See at Walmart Sushi Go There's nothing like a simple card game for passing the time, and Sushi Go has to be the most adorable set of cards ever made. In this charming party game, the goal is to grab the best combination of sushi dishes to have the highest score by the end of the game. From maki rolls and egg nigiri to dumplings and tempura, each card has its own points requirements, meaning you're constantly looking at your hand to see what card would be the best fit as well as keeping your eye on opponents' cards to anticipate what card they might grab next. This fast-paced game can get surprisingly competitive, but it's easy to learn and always a blast to play, making it great for kids, too. See at Amazon Root Root is an asymmetric board game set in a forest kingdom occupied by four factions: Marquise de Cat, the Eyrie Dynasties, the Woodland Alliance, and the Vagabond. Each faction has its own strategy, abilities, and win condition, but all four groups are ultimately fighting for control of the wilderness. Root is a slightly more complicated game with a steeper learning curve, but its adorable art makes it easy to draw players in. See at Amazon Kodama Kodama is a cozy little game for two to five players where you build out the branches on a tree and try to have the highest score based on the combination of caterpillars, flowers, fireflies, mushrooms, and other small features on it. Taking place over the course of three seasons, your tree will expand as you strategically place down branch cards, and at the end of each season, a kodama (forest spirit) will award you extra points based on how well you've suited its needs. This is a chill game for a chill group of people, and with its gorgeous artwork, it's also a treat to look at as you play.Other versions of Kodama have been released as well. Kodama Duo is the best option for two players, while Kodama 3D involves actually building a 3D tree (and takes up less table space). See Kodama at Amazon See Kodama Duo at Amazon See Kodama 3D at Amazon Mountains of Madness Inspired by H.P. Lovecraft's novel At The Mountains of Madness, this three- to five-player game has you working together with your team to slowly scale the mountain and reach the peak with your sanity intact. The cooperative gameplay grows increasingly harder as you and your companions pick up madness cards, which will hinder communication significantly. There are three levels of madness cards, and their requirements involve anything from speaking in an accent to having to say numbers as addition problems ("three plus two" instead of "five"). Mountains of Madness isn't the easiest board game to win and will test your group's ability to communicate under pressure, but it's incredibly fun with people who aren't afraid to get outside their comfort zone. See at Amazon Codenames Even if your loved one isn't a board gamer, they'll probably like Codenames. Codenames is a spy-themed word game with two competing groups of players and two spymasters, one for each team. Looking down at a 5x5 grid of cards (each one representing a secret agent), each team is competing to guess which cards belong to their team based on one-word clues from the spymaster while also avoiding cards from the opposite team and the solo assassin card. Codenames is ideal for about four players, but you can play with anywhere from two to eight people (or even more). This party game is perfect for both adults and kids of all reading ages who love solving puzzles and word games. See at Amazon Fallout Inspired by the video game series, Fallout is a post-apocalyptic, co-op board game for one to four players where you begin as survivors on the edge of an unfamiliar world. Throughout the game, you'll explore the map, fight enemies, deepen your survivor's skills, and complete various quests while ensuring none of the feuding factions within the game become too powerful. This is a lengthier board game that'll take you two to three hours for a single playthrough, but it's the perfect gift for the die-hard Fallout gamer or for anyone who likes role-playing adventure games. See at Amazon Tsuro Tsuro is an easy but highly replayable board game where you put down tiles with various intertwining roads on them and slowly slide your piece across the board to follow the path, which twists and turns as you and other players place more tiles. The catch: You die if your piece goes off the board or runs into another player, so you want to have the last piece standing. At the board game nights I attend, we begin every session with Tsuro as it takes about 30 seconds to explain and start playing, but it always ends in laughter and hijinks as friends plot each others' demise (and sometimes unknowingly send themselves off the board). See at Amazon The Resistance The Resistance is a great game for larger groups, anywhere from five to 10 players. In this game, there are two sides: the Resistance, an underground group of fighters fighting against an oppressive leadership, and the government spies who have infiltrated their group. The goal of the Resistance is to successfully complete a certain number of missions, while the spies will win if they ensure a certain number of missions fail. The catch is that while the spies know each others' identities, the Resistance only knows the number of spies among their group, meaning those players must choose carefully when deciding who goes on each mission. The Resistance is similar to Mafia or Werewolf in that players must debate and figure out the identities of the spies based on people's actions and behaviors. From bluffing your way through as a Resistance member to throwing false accusations at other players, there are plenty of things you can do as a spy to throw other players off track, and it's incredibly fun. See at Amazon Red Dragon Inn 5 The Red Dragon Inn 5: The Character Trove is a fast-paced card game for two to four players. The premise is that you and your party of companions have returned to town after a day of killing monsters and clearing dungeons to celebrate and have a mighty good time at the Red Dragon Inn. The game is all about drinking, gambling, and roughhousing with friends while making sure you don't run out of gold or get too drunk or beaten up (your friends will loot your body, of course). The Red Dragon Inn 5 makes a great gift because it comes with an extra-large box and various storage items designed to hold all the characters from previous expansions so you don't have to store them in separate boxes. See at Amazon Dungeons & Dragons Core Rulebooks Gift Set This three-book set is the ultimate gift for someone who's new to Dungeons & Dragons and interested in being a Dungeon Master. The set contains the Players Handbook, the Dungeon Master's Guide, and the Monster Manual as well as a Dungeon Master's screen, and each of the books have reflective foil covers only available in this special set. See at Amazon Tasha's Cauldron of Everything Releasing November 17, Tasha's Cauldron of Everything is a new rules expansion for Dungeons & Dragons and adds expanded subclasses, new character features and feats, group patrons, new spells, and much more. The book also introduces new rules for sidekicks, supernatural environments, natural hazards, and more. While Tasha's Cauldron of Everything isn't releasing until November, it does follow in the footsteps of Xanthar's Guide to Everything, which is a great expansion to the core Player's Handbook. So it should make a neat gift for any D&D player this holiday season. See at Amazon Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden If you know you're shopping for someone who's a Dungeon Master, the new D&D adventure book Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden offers "a tale of dark terror" set in the frozen North and includes rules for DMs running adventures in the wintery climate. The latest D&D adventure is perfect for long-time players looking to start a brand-new campaign with newly-created characters. See at Amazon Wiz Bag of Devouring One of the best gifts for board game lovers is a place for them to hold all their dice. This bag contains 140 polyhedral dice and 20 complete sets of varying gorgeous colors and designs. The perfect gift for a Dungeon Master or someone who wants to be ready for any dice game, the Bag of Devouring can also fit over 200 dice if needed. See at Amazon CardKingPro Dice Bag If they have plenty of dice but could use an easier way to organize and transport them, this huge dice bag would be a much-appreciated gift. With seven stitched compartments, this faux suede bag can hold over 150 dice, and it includes a built-in drawstring to close the bag securely. See at Amazon Dice-Rolling Tray Rolling dice on a crowded table quickly gets annoying (not to mention loud), and heavier dice can even damage your table. That's why most fans of tabletop RPGs appreciate having a good dice tray for a safe and enclosed area to roll their dice in. While designed for a game like D&D, you can use this tray for any game involving dice, making it a multipurpose accessory they'll get plenty of use out of. See at Amazon Dice Tower and Tray A dice tower is another dice-rolling option that some may prefer to a dice tray. This particular dice tower made of laser-cut plywood and thick clear acrylic that allows you to see the dice as it tumbles through. It also comes with a wooden tray, but you can actually remove the tower and use it with another tray of your choice, such as the dapper octopus one above. For taking on the go, the tower can be folded into the base tray and even hold your dice while you're carrying it, which also makes it a neat stocking stuffer. See at Amazon RPG Battle Grid A battle mat is another great accessory for Dungeon Masters, allowing them to visualize the map for players. This particular map is covered with a high-gloss, waterproof laminate so you can use dry-erase markers without leaving any stains. It also comes with a set of multi-color markers, an eraser, and an empty spray bottle for easy cleaning. See at Amazon Info from Gamespot.com
