What an experience! – Brandon Morgan
It’s N7 Day, the annual Mass Effect holiday in which BioWare gestures at the next game while fans have a field day with merch and fan art. But this year, the team just put out another game, Dragon Age: The Veilguard and doesn’t want to steal the game’s thunder with a bunch of teases for a game that’s still a ways out. However, brand synergy is strong, and BioWare has put some Mass Effect-themed armor sets in The Veilguard for free. – Kenneth Shepard

While you might already be looking out for deals on some of this year’s best games in hopes of catching up on what’s hot, there are always a plethora of smaller indies equally worth your time. – Willa Rowe
There’s a lot happening in The World™ right now, so why not turn to games for comfort and escape? There’re any number of fantasies to slip away into and I know that I’m going to be relying on my Steam library for the days and maybe even weeks to come. I’m also eyeing sales right now and one particular deal caught my eye that I think might be of interest to everybody else… – Moises Taveras
