The upcoming pre-expansion patch drops a huge batch of new assets into the game that bring tons of models into the modern era. The pre-patch World of Warcraft update gives a fresh coat of paint to a laundry list of the game’s assets. Fingers crossed…Battle for Azeroth releases in just a few weeks, so be sure to check back for more updates or guides when the expans

When Fortnite added its first vehicle, the shopping cart, it was a well-received addition to the game, as it led to some interesting collaboration and kills. However, one minor drawback is that the shopping cart only supported two players, but now, the battle royale game has added the All Terrain Kart (ATK) which has enough room for an entire 4-man squad. Rear passengers will be instrumental in gaining higher jumps, as it’ll be possible for those players to lean backward. Check out the All Terra

After introducing superheroes and new map changes inside of the recently ended season 4, Epic Games is taking things even further it seems for the fifth season of Fortnite Battle Royale. Season 5 continues that twisted theme which is apparent by brand new locations that have appeared on the map. As expected, the Fortnite Battle Royale map has once again evolved, which is how Epic has managed to keep the experience feeling fresh each season, rather than introducing additional new maps like its ri

Destiny 2: Forsaken is bringing nine new subclass branches to the game, expanding each super ability to fill a new role. The Knife Trick ability allows hunters to throw a fan of knives out in front of them, igniting any enemy that is hit. The Ballistic Slam melee ability allows Titans to soar through the air and slam down at nearby enemies, leveling anything in their way. The Divine Protection perk allows Warlocks to charge their grenade and turn it into a Blessing, which will heal teammates. At

Bungie has already revealed that the Flashpoint milestone in Destiny 2 will be changing in Forsaken, moving to a 4-day rotation instead of a weekly one, but it appears that is not the only change on the horizon. According to new Destiny 2: Forsaken details, the upcoming expansion will offer players more ways to work towards their Flashpoint milestone completion. As part of Game Informer’s ongoing coverage of Destiny 2: Forsaken, the publication reveals that Flashpoints will work a little differe

Certain bounties will even allow players to take on a harder, redesigned lost sector featuring new bosses. These lost sectors are redesigned to give players a more challenging experience, almost like a mini-strike. One Outlaw Lost Sector in the EDZ features a Fallen Captain who is protected by shields that the player must destroy using bombs. One of Titan’s Outlaw Lost Sectors features a Hive Wizard who can summon a powerful Ogre and Thralls to overwhelm players who are unprepared. These new Los

Not long from now, Season 5 of Fortnite will begin, and the myriad players of Epic Games’ multiplayer sandbox shooter are in eager anticipation as to what the developer has in mind for the next cycle of content. Equally exciting is the fact that just before the fifth season’s arrival, Epic is also announcing the Summer Skirmish series for the game, where the studio will be offering $8 million in prize money. Plus, on a week-to-week basis, Epic could potentially change the format and the competit

On June 25, 2018, 18 year old Renard Matthews of New Orleans, Louisiana was shot and killed while out walking his dog. Renard’s mother, Temeka Matthews, enlisted the help of Charbonnet Labat Glapion Funeral Home to create her son’s display. Comments on the Internet show that some people think Renard Matthews’s wake is in poor taste, but his family sees this as a loving way to honor him. Most of the time, these tributes occur in-game, with a number of touching in-game tributes to passed away game

CD Projekt Red is currently keeping itself busy working on Cyberpunk 2077 and many are wondering if the studio will ever return to their first big game franchise, The Witcher. Adam Kicinski, CEO of CD Projekt Red, was speaking with Polish financial website Bankier and brought up the possibility of a new Witcher game. Kicinski went on to say that The Witcher series is “one of two franchises” the company is looking build its future on. Outside of Cyberpunk 2077, which currently doesn’t have an off

Without a doubt, Naughty Dog’s gameplay footage reveal for the highly anticipated post-apocalyptic survival-horror sequel The Last of Us: Part 2 during Sony’s PlayStation E3 2018 press conference got many gamers geared up and excited to slip into the role of its protagonist, Ellie. While she will be the primary focus of the title, it seems as if there will be someone else tagging along for the adventure, as it has recently been confirmed that Ellie will have an AI companion. According to Druckma

Not too long ago, the President of Sony‘s Worldwide Studios, Shuhei Yoshida, was at Develop: Brighton, and he talked about his work at PlayStation while also sharing his perspective on the current gaming generation. During this discussion, Yoshida made mention of the tech firm’s PlayStation 3 price announcement several years ago, with the company head saying that the experience was a “horrifying moment”. For instance, Yoshida also said that he was proud to see ThatGameCompany make Journey for th

One of the coolest thing about the Nintendo Switch has been the pattern of demos and betas available ahead of launch for Nintendo exclusive titles. Octopath Traveler takes this trend a step further and actually allows players to take any progress made in the Prologue demo over to the full game when it launches in a few days. The Octopath Traveler Prologue demo gives players a chance to experience up to three hours of the title for free. To help incentivize picking up the full game, Nintendo and

Octopath Traveler allows players to select whichever character they prefer at the start of the game and the rest can be added to the party at a later point. That said, there are some consequences that come along with selecting the starting character, so Octopath Traveler players should keep all of this information in mind. The primary consequence is that the starter character will remain the main protagonist for the rest of the game. The other primary consideration when selecting a starting char

Here are some of the biggest changes that have come to No Man’s Sky recently. No Man’s Sky has changed a lot since launch, and it is slowly becoming the game that fans wanted it to be. While No Man’s Sky is certainly an ambitious title, it needed a little more time to fill some of the promises that Hello Games made before launch. With multiplayer and the Xbox One edition launching with the NEXT update, No Man’s Sky can only get better. No Man’s Sky is available now for PC and PS4 and launches Ju

Now, in order to better clarify TLOU2‘s violent tone, its writing team recently discussed how it is used in the game. According to Halley Gross, co-writer of The Last of Us: Part 2, Naughty Dog has attempted to make the forthcoming title about “the cyclical nature of violence” with the idea being that “violence begets violence begets violence”, which is exhibited in how it affects Ellie throughout the game as a “sort of growing trauma”. The sequel’s director and Naughty Dog Vice President, Neil

Moreover, in-game additions include a Viking anchor and horse-drawn carriage, with the latest discovery being an animal skeleton. Fittingly set in Moisty Mire, the animal skeleton (see below) is only the latest discovery in the buildup to Fortnite season 5. Notably, exactly what type of animal remains that appeared in Moisty Mire are hard to determine, but it’s possible that this bolsters theories about dinosaurs appearing in Fortnite. One thing the wide variety of items appearing in Fortnite su

However, that hasn’t stopped hacks from being in the game, with popular Twitch streamer Shroud recently encountering a hacked flying car, getting in it, and then getting banned for one month as a result. Shroud’s one month ban in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds shows that the developers are extremely serious about combating hacking in the game. Other PUBG hacks have been similarly problematic, allowing players to essentially become invincible, and pick up unfair, unearned victories. In fact, the S

As many gamers are likely aware, the publisher Electronic Arts has a slew of acquisitions as far as development studios are concerned, with companies such as DICE, BioWare, and Respawn Entertainment being among its many subsidiaries. According to Samantha Ryan, Senior Vice President of Electronic Arts’ Worldwide Studios, the publisher’s decision to buy Industrial Toys was due to the positive results that the Bungie co-founder’s development studio always turned out when EA worked with it. As she

Ahead of its release next week, Far Cry 5 teases its Lost on Mars DLC with a short trailer. As seen below, the plot for this Far Cry 5 expansion revolves around Hurk requesting Nick’s help on the planet Mars. Arcade players will likely be excited to get these Mars assets, as well as the zombie-related assets when that DLC launches. The creativity of the Far Cry 5 arcade is extensive, with one dedicated player recently recreating Jurassic Park in the game. Once Lost On Mars launches, it’ll be int

Ever since its launch way back in 2013, Rockstar Games has been steadily keeping Grand Theft Auto Online flush with content, and the developer has now decided to cut players a deal as far as acquiring some of the in-game materials goes in GTA 5‘s multiplayer component. Today, the studio has announced that it will be offering bonus rewards to all players of the online title who qualify as “Guest List” members. The developer has also mentioned that GTA$ deposits for this special offer will need be
