Leicester City linked with Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah

It may be over 11 years since its original launch, but Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance remains as enjoyable as ever. Fortunately, fans of the PC version can enjoy it DRM-free – it’s now available on GOG at 40 percent off until July 11th.

Developed by PlatinumGames (with Kojima Productions assisting), Revengeance focuses on Raiden four years after Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. Cyborg soldiers are more common, and he’s at odds with rival PMC, Desperado. Unlike the mainline series, Metal Gear Rising focuses heavily on fast-paced hack-and-slash action.

Those who pick up the PC version can avaSA Lottoil of various armor options for Raiden, fr…

BioWare’s Dragon Age: The Veilguard has received some new details for the RPG, specifically its locations. While we’ve seen various environments across Thedas before, the latest videos showcase some new ones, like the Arlathan Forest and Hossberg Wetlands. Check them out below.

The Arlathan Forest is where “ancient magic and powerful artifacts re-awaken”, disrupting reality as the Veil Jumpers (of which Bellara Lutare is a member) attempt to fix things. The Hossberg Wetlands are full of Darkspawn thanks to the Blight, with the Grey Wardens fighting against it from Lavendel.

Of course, we also see new looks for previously showcased areas, whether it’s the Grey Warden fortress on the Rivain Coast, the markets of Minrathous, or …

Zambia coach Herve Renard says it is crucial his team defeats Senegal in their opening game of the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations on Saturday.

Zambia have been drawn against Senegal in Group A, which also includes Libya and co-hosts Equatorial Guinea.

Senegal are a strong team and a team that beats Senegal will go far in the tournament, Renard told the Zambia Daily Mail.

Even though Renard’s team defeated the west Africans from their two meetings during the inaugural Championship of African Nations in 2009, he is not underrating their squad, which is now one of the favourites to lift the trophy.

That was a different competition and this will be played at a different level, Renard said.

The Zambians are looking for their first Cup of Nations troph…

Balatro has probably been one of the year’s biggest indie sensations, having not only enjoyed widespread acclaim from critics and audiences alike (including multiple nominations at The Game Awards), but also healthy sales across traditional platforms.

In September, developer LocalThunk and publisher PlayStack also brought the game to iOS and Android, and since then, also seems to have been bringing in revenue on mobile platforms at a decent clip- at least in recent days.

As per a report published by Pocketgamer.biz, Balatro has earned almost $4.4 million in revenue on iOS and Android since releasing for mobile platforms in late September. In its first week, the roguelike title had made $1 million, with launch day spending peaking at $162…

Preston North End could be promoted back to the Championship after a four-year absence in what promises to be a big weekend at both ends of the table in League One.

The Lancashire club, relegated from the second tier in 2011, are a point clear of MK Dons in the race for the second automatic promotion place after both claimed victories in midweek.

Simon Grayson s Preston won 3-1 at Notts County and MK Dons overcame Doncaster Rovers 3-0.

Preston head into Saturday s home game against fourth-placed Swindon Town knowing victory will secure promotion with a game to spare if Karl Robinson s side suffer defeat at Rochdale.

Colchester United, Notts County and Leyton Orient could all join Yeovil Town in dropping into League Two this weekend.

Wayne Rooney scored twice after Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain opened the scoring to earn England a 3-1 win over Scotland at Celtic Park.
The Arsenal forward headed home an inch perfect cross from Gunners team-mate Jack Wilshere before Rooney scored his 45th England goal as he closes in on Sir Bobby Charlton and Gary Lineker s goal tallies.
Andrew Robertson gave the home side hope when he fired low past Fraser Forster but Rooney struck again to give the visitors a two-goal cushion.
Many had predicted a fiercely contested affair between the neighbouring nations but, despite some early resistance from the home side Roy Hodgson s men were quickly in firm control.
Scotland brought Chris Martin in for injured striker Steven Fletcher, while Hodgson handed a first England appearance since 2012 …

Manchester City restored their eight-point lead at the top of the Premier League thanks to a goal in the dying seconds by Raheem Sterling that sealed a dramatic 2-1 home win over Southampton.

A Kevin De Bruyne free-kick, diverted into his own net by Virgil van Dijk, had looked likely to be enough to give Pep Guardiola s side a 12th league win in a row until Oriol Romeu snatched an equaliser 15 minutes from time.

But Sterling curled home a sublime winner as the game crept into the sixth minute of injury time to maintain the hosts charge towards the title.

City battled back from a goal down to beat Huddersfield Town last time out, Sterling also scoring the winner in that clash, and they could easily have found themselves behind in the first half at the Etihad Stad…

Florentino Perez has fuelled rumours linking Neymar with Real Madrid after claiming the Brazilian would have a better chance of winning the Ballon d Or at the Santiago Bernabeu than at Paris Saint-Germain.

Cristiano Ronaldo took the prestigious individual accolade for a record-equalling fifth time on Thursday, beating Lionel Messi and Neymar, who came second and third, respectively.

It was the second occasion – after 2015 – that Neymar has finished third to the pair, with Ronaldo and Messi still regarded to be some way ahead of him.

His world-record €222million move from Barcelona to PSG was said to have been completed with the intention of boosting his chances of winning the Ballon d Or in future years.

But Madrid president Perez thinks Neymar woul…

Barcelona plan to lodge an appeal after the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) issued Robert Lewandowski with a three-match ban following his red card against Osasuna.

Lewandowski was shown two yellow cards in the first half of Barca s 2-1 win at El Sadar last Tuesday, in which goals from Pedri and Raphinha helped Xavi s men to a comeback victory.

On Wednesday, it was reported the RFEF had given Lewandowski an extended three-match suspension after accusing him of berating referee Gil Manzano following his dismissal.

That would rule Lewandowski, who is LaLiga s top scorer with 13 goals this campaign, out of the Blaugrana s fixtures against Espanyol, Atletico Madrid and Real Betis after the World Cup, but his club will attempt to overturn the ruling.

A club…

Julian Nagelsmann s reign as Bayern Munich head coach began with a 1-1 draw at Borussia Monchengladbach in the first match of the 2021-22 Bundesliga season, with Yann Sommer frustrating the champions.

Nagelsmann, who joined from RB Leipzig during the close season, will have been largely pleased with the overall dominance exerted by Bayern but they were unable to make the most of their chances.

Die Roten looked shaky at the start and were deservedly behind in the 10th minute thanks to Alassane Plea, though Robert Lewandowski – who had previously been thwarted three times by Sommer – volleyed home the equaliser to equal his longest Bundesliga scoring streak (11 matches).

More presentable chances came and went after the interval, with Sommer loving his personal …
