Summer Game Fest, the video game industry's largest annual event (now that E3 is officially dead, cremated, and its ashes scattered to the breeze), starts this week, and the sheer volume of shows  happening over the week is enough to make any gamer salivate.

Guild Wars 2's newest expansion is Janthir Wilds, which is set on islands long guarded by the wizards of the Astral Ward, giving us zones littered with the ruins of the fabled Mursaat along with more recent inhabitants such as the White Mantle.

Patch 7 for the critically acclaimed Baldur's Gate 3 is on the way, and with it long-anticipated mod support.

The next few weeks are going to be amazing for gamers: Summer Game Fest this weekend, Steam Next Fest (aka Demo Heaven) next week, and then the big Steam Summer Sale at the end of the month.

Roll20, the indepedent virtual tabletop (VTT) toolset company, has formally announced their acquisition of Demiplane.

Wizards of the Coast is currently searching for a Principal AI Engineer that will build processes focused on simulation, asset creation, and AI generations.

Summer Game Fest starts this week!
