This milestone will be reached on April 26, but thanks to Pokemon GO players in some other time zones, the community has been able to confirm another week of Moltres encounters.

  • Yesterday, Epic Games introduced the Clinger Grenade to Fortnite Battle Royale, with most gamers believing it would only be a matter of time before the sticky grenade was used in some outlandish way to land kills. As depicted below, a Clinger grenade can be attached to an ally to create a suicide charge of sorts, though no actual death will result for the ally. The aforementioned method of using the Clinger Grenade is almost as entertaining as when popular streamer Ninja got a kill with the Port

  • Destiny 2 will soon release its Warmind DLC on May 8, and included in the expansion is a new raid lair, titled Spire of Stars. As is always the case, the Spire of Stars raid lair is being kept well under wraps with virtually nothing known about it outside of the title.

Bungie hasn’t even revealed what kind of enemy faction players may face in the new raid lair. Speaking of launch, Warmind

First up is a returning Warlock exotic from Destiny. This returning Warlock exotic originally granted a second melee charge for all Warlock subclasses.

The latest update for Fortnite decorates the roof of one of the buildings at Tilted Towers with some furniture and signs hyping the meteor’s arrival. If Tilted Towers isn’t destroyed tomorrow, then perhaps Epic will at least offer fans more information about the e

Those rumors haven’t gone away, and a new teaser trailer for Warmind appears to corroborate that information with a mode called Hive Escalation Protocol. Just the name alone sounds very much like a horde mode, obviously focused around Destiny 2‘s Hive enemy faction. In addition, the short clips shown off in the teaser appear to sho
