Rare is preparing for the quickly approaching release of Sea of Thieves‘ first major content update, The Hungering Deep, by tantalizing players with a tease of all the new content.

Resident Evil 7: Cloud Version was surprisingly announced for the Nintendo Switch a few days ago, and it’s now available in Japan. Videos have started appearing online featuring gameplay footage of Resident Evil 7: Cloud Version on the Nintendo Switch. Resident Evil 7: Cloud Version has been met with criticism since its initial announcement. Even though Resident Evil 7: Cloud Version appears to be having problems, though, that doesn’t mean the game can’t make a comeback on Switch. Resident Evil

Surprisingly absent from the proceedings, though, was a mention of battle royale. Nevertheless, DICE senior producer Andreas Morrel explains that the studio is currently looking into how a mode could work for the sequel. After all, with Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 having Blackout, Battlefield V might want to put together its own take on the mode for the sake of healthy competition. Then again, perhaps DICE and Electronic Arts are seeing how the whole battle royale craze shakes out before committin

Battlefield V, however, doesn’t intend to capitalize on the trend just yet it seems, as DICE creative director Lars Gustavsson has confirmed that the studio’s game will not feature a battle royale mode at launch. This much was revealed by the DICE creative director while speaking to Newsweek during a media briefing held in London prior to the official Battlefield V livestream trailer reveal that took place earlier today. This implies that while a battle royale mode won’t come at launch, it could

Destiny 2: Warmind introduced the new Escalation Protocol endgame activity into the game, which is the closest thing Destiny 2 has ever had to a Horde or Firefight Mode. The recommended Power level for Escalation Protocol is 370. Here is the Escalation Protocol guide for the week of May 22, 2018:Level 7 Boss: Damkath, The MaskThe final boss of Escalation Protocol this week is Damkath, The Mask.

Several months ago, the rumor mill was churning out certain details that potentially pointed toward the company Warner Bros. Interactive working with the publisher TT Games to eventually put out LEGO DC Villains at some point in 2018. Interestingly enough, the listing led to Bethesda confirming that it planned on releasing RAGE 2, so there’s a good chance that LEGO DC Villains is a lock as well. After all, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 went on to receive decent reviews from various outlets, so it’s

This further sets them apart from the normal strike playlist as a middle-of-the-road option between that and the weekly Nightfall Strike. Each week, the Heroic Strike playlist receives a weekly Singe modifier that is persistent until the next weekly reset in Destiny 2. Read on to see what the weekly Singe modifier is, as well as loadout recommendations for the week of May 22, 2018. Not only does Riskrunner deal Arc damage, but it has two very unique complimentary perks that work directly with Ar

Pokemon GO players are already out stockpiling Pinap Berries in preparation for a very exciting Community Day next month. In addition to that, it sounds like the exclusive move will also be a huge selling point. Niantic hasn’t officially confirmed the Pokemon GO June Community Day exclusive move yet, but some hints and leaks have definitely offered some strong clues. The biggest reveal comes from the Chinese version of the in-game press release, which seems to have accidentally included a senten

Thankfully, creative director John Garvin says the release date is coming “before long”. As far as remaining work on Days Gone is concerned, Garvin confirmed toward the end of the interview, that Days Gone is currently “100 percent playable” and that he’s even “beaten it”. All things considered, one can only hope that Days Gone not only has its release date announced soon, but also manages to stand head and shoulders above the recent spate of post-apocalyptic titles featuring undead enemies. Gar

When Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery was released last month, one of the loudest criticisms from fans and in reviews of the game is that it is too heavy on microtransactions. The news that Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery is a top grossing game comes from app analytics firm, App Annie. As mentioned, Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery has come under fire repeatedly for the way that it features microtransactions. Or, the spending power of players who don’t mind Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery‘s microtrans

As seen in the image further below from the Redditor and Fortnite player known as MrPopoTFS, the title’s content update 4.2, which made its way onto servers yesterday, not only added the aforementioned Jetpacks, but also what was called an Eye of the Storm Tracker. The Storm Tracker was an idea that was being tested for one of those backpacks. “This was not intended to make it into the v4.2 Content Update and we can’t promise this will ever officially be released. However, we do hope those who g

When Red Dead Redemption 2 was initially announced by Rockstar Games, the developer had originally slated the open world western release to come out at some point during fall 2017, then spring 2018, which later saw the title get delayed further until October of this year. While these postponements may have made many wonder about the possibility of there being another holdup in RDR2‘s availability, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick promises that its current release date is here to stay. This much was

As many Pokemon GO fans predicted, June’s Community Day will put Larvitar in the spotlight. Tyranitar is incredibly important to the mobile AR game’s meta, so this is likely the most important Community Day since Dratini. Pokemon GO Community Day comes with a lot of great bonuses; including increased spawn rates for the featured monster, some kind of catch bonus, extended lures, a special move, and a shiny variant. Although the Pokemon GO shiny version of Tyranitar hasn’t been added to the game

Destiny 2’s new Escalation Protocol is easily one of the hardest experiences that Bungie has ever created, but it has also highlighted (and even created) a few problems in the popular shooter. How Escalation Protocol WorksThe basis of Escalation Protocol is fairly straightforward. For many players, Escalation Protocol Level 7 is a challenge, but it is doable with 9 players near the current power level cap. The 3-player fireteam has rarely been an issue in Destiny 1 or Destiny 2, but with the rel

The new update for Overwatch also adds the new Free for All Deathmatch map Petra to the game, and some fans believe it includes hints as to who the next hero will be. The Petra map in Overwatch features laptops and tablets with messages written by an unseen character named H. Faisal (full name possibly Hamid Faisal). The data logs these characters have left lying around the Petra map may point to the new hero being someone else entirely, however. However, it’s possible that the next Overwatch ch

Sony recently confirmed that Santa Monica Studio’s action-adventure epic God of War managed to break a PS4 sales record by becoming the fastest selling exclusive on the current generation platform by moving an impressive 3.1 million units in just three days.

When it was released early last year, PS4 exclusive Horizon Zero Dawn garnered massive sales and critical success. Fans of developer Guerrilla Games have been eager to find out what the company is working on next and thankfully, new job listings provide some hints. While the job listings don’t mention a named project, the “what you will do” section of the job listings suggest that Guerrilla Games is working on another RPG, or a game with RPG mechanics. Fans of Horizon Zero Dawn will hope that Gu
