Dortmund sign Mateu Morey from Barcelona

It’s been several months since Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard was finalized, and even though the latter’s catalog of titles has started making its way over to Game Pass with Diablo 4 kicking things off in March, there hasn’t been any real clarity on whether Call of Duty in particular is going to follow suit. Now, however, it’s being reported that concrete details on that front will be officially shared soon.

Wall Street Journal has claimed in a recently published report that this year’s Call of Duty game will be available via Game Pass at launch. As per the report, though the company is of course expecting a hit to the title’s sales, it is also hoping to see a bump in subscriber n…

Flock joins Annapurna’s growing catalog of “personal, emotional, and original” games, conjuring similar emotions as The Outer Wilds and even Stray. With Flock, Hollow Ponds and Annapurna have crafted a meditative explorative experience punctuated by impressionistic visuals and plenty of charm. As the title implies, you document and charm various creatures into following you. Flock doesn’t boast rich worldbuilding and a deep narrative, but there’s still an overarching goal, namely to fill Aunt Jane’s Creature Guide and gather whistles used to collect creatures. It’s a game all about exploring and documenting wildlife at your own pace; it’s about the journey, not the dest…

Legacy of Kain fans have finally managed to will a revival for the beloved franchise into existence.

Fabio Capello has described Spain as pure magic ahead of their Euro 2016 knockout clash with his native Italy.

The reigning European Champions had to settle for second place in Group D, having lost their final game against Croatia, setting up a tie with the beaten Euro 2012 finalists.

rnament.

[They are] a great team, he told Marca. I love the Spanish team the best of the tournament, although I liked Croatia.

La Roja [Spain] should not have lost to the Croats, as they were superior.

Spain are pure magic. They have good players, a good coach and good play.

At this point, any publisher releasing a game on PC and not putting it on Steam is shooting themselves in the foot, and we continue to see more evidence of that every day. Valve’s platform consistently grows SA Lottoat a rapid rate, and recently hit another major milestone.

As per SteamDB, on Sunday, December 8, Steam hit a new all-time peak of concurrent users, with a total of 39,205,447 people using the platform at the same time. At the time, over 12 million people were playing a game. As recently as September, the platform hit a peak of 38 million concurrent users, so perhaps it won’t be too long before we’re talking about the 40 million mark.

Liverpool eyeing Fabio Sturgeon

that Liverpool are keeping close tabs on Belenenses midfielder Fabio Sturgeon.

The Reds have watched the youngster of several occasions after he had caught their eye, and they plan to lure him to Anfield in the near future.

Portuguese powerhouse Benfica are also believed to be keen, but Sturgeon reportedly prefers a move to the Premier League given that his father is English.

And with the player valued at mere £2.4 million, it is only a matter of time before Liverpool decide to step up their interest.

The attacking midfielder has been at Belenenses since 2010 and has so far featured in 22 league matches for the club.

Sturgeon nailed down a regular starting berth this season, starting five Primeira Liga ga…

The agent of Stoke City’s Xherdan Shaqiri has refused to rule out a potential transfer to Roma, .

The Swiss star moved to the Bet 365 Stadium from Inter Milan in the summer of 2015 and has since made thirty Premier League appearances for the club, scoring four goals – enough to attract attention from Italy.

Prior to his move to England, Shaqiri played just twenty times in all competitions for Inter having won five consecutive league titles – three with Basel in his home country and then two with Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.

He was also an unused substitute as Bayern beat rivals Borussia Dortmund in the 2013 Champions League final at Wembley.

He has scored eighteen goals in fifty-nine outings for his country, with three of those strikers co…
