Take Square Enix, for example, who announced Final Fantasy 14 GO as part of its annual April Fool’s Day joke. While Square Enix could have easily made fun of Pokemon GO as part of this April Fool’s joke, the developer and publisher actually pokes fun at itself with Final Fantasy 14 GO. Essentially, the app would see players traveling to various hubs to harvest resources, similar to the tedious tasks that online players complete in Final Fantasy 14 Online. It’s funny to think that a few years ago

A couple weeks ago, the Capital Wasteland mod coming to Fallout 4 was canceled due to possible copyright infringement and an inability to use audio from the original game, leaving fans to wonder what this meant for the similar New Vegas project. In a recent blog post, the development team behind the Fallout 4 New Vegas mod assures fans that it is still underway and they’ve created their own Voice Acting team to circumvent the legal issues that affected the Capital Wasteland. Unlike those two dep

It goes without saying that Super Smash Bros. is one of the most anticipated Nintendo Switch exclusives of the year. This Super Smash Bros. rumor comes from “industry insider” Marcus Sellars, who has been “leaking” information on the upcoming game. However, if the new Super Smash Bros. game for the Nintendo Switch did include more third-party characters than before, it wouldn’t be surprising. If Nintendo is planning on bringing third-party characters to Super Smash Bros. on the Nintendo Switch,

Along with the introduction of more shiny Pokemon, the latest Pokemon GO update has also, for the first time, added classic 8-bit graphics to the game, apparently as part of an April Fools’ Day joke. For fans of the old-school Pokemon games, however, this feature adds a nostalgic feel to the highly modern augmented reality game, Pokemon GO. After the update, players can now enjoy “cutting-edge” 8-bit graphics when accessing the Pokedex and the Nearby Pokemon screen in Pokemon GO. Below are some

Pokemon GO‘s Field and Special Research quests are now available, meaning that trainers finally have the opportunity to catch the mythical Pokemon Mew in the game. Catching the Mythical Pokemon Mew in Pokemon GO is the goal of the Special Research quest called A Mythical Discovery. Here are all the objectives players have to complete to catch Mew in Pokemon GO.

Super Smash Bros. for the Nintendo Switch will be at E3 2018, so concrete details on the game likely won’t come until then. According to Sellars, Super Smash Bros. on Nintendo Switch will have a co-op story mode that supports up to two players. So until Nintendo itself reveals a co-op story mode for Super Smash Bros. on the Switch, no one should get their hopes up. — Marcus Sellars (@Marcus_Sellars) March 31, 2018Besides claiming that Super Smash Bros. for the Switch will have a co-op story mode

The map, created by Far Cry 5 player wim_buytaert, serves as a recreation of the beginning of Resident Evil 7, when Ethan first arrives at the Baker family plantation. Players are able to walk through a wooded area and come upon the smaller Baker family house, complete with a creepy swingset in the yard. Exploring the outside of the Baker family house isn’t the only creepy thing players can experience in Far Cry 5. It will be interesting to see what else fans of Far Cry 5 manage to dream up in t

Many of these objectives, in both the Field Research and Special Research categories, revolve around throwing Great and Excellent throws, so some may need a refresher course on how to do these. Now that players know how to throw Great and Excellent throws, they may be wondering the easiest Pokemon to get them on. Something else to keep in mind when farming for Great and Excellent throws is that the better throws also count for the less impressive ones. So for example, if a player makes an Excell

The list of Field Research tasks that can be assigned to a player by spinning a stop is a pretty lengthy one. Unless they check out the results of a recent datamine that is…The Research update datamine includes the full list of Field Research tasks that can be offered to a player.

Although exact details appear to be sketchy, it appears that Kevin Pereira’s The Attack channel has been banned from Twitch. For those unaware, Kevin Pereira co-hosted Attack of the Show on G4 from 2006 to 2012. Afterward, in 2014, Pereira created The Attack on Twitch – an intended spiritual successor to the rather successful TV show. Now, however, the Twitch channel appears to have slowly been dying, with a peak viewer count of around 300 viewers a week. Furthermore, one of the pressing factors

The latest rumor surrounding Super Smash Bros. on the Switch points to a pair of characters that are apparently returning to the franchise in the form of the Ice Climbers. Considering this, Super Smash Bros. fans should take this information with a massive grain of salt. — Marcus Sellars (@Marcus_Sellars) March 29, 2018The Ice Climbers made their Super Smash Bros. debut in Super Smash Bros. Melee on the GameCube. The characters then returned for Super Smash Bros. Brawl on the Wii, but were absen

After teasing a Mega Man crossover event last year, Capcom is finally shedding light on what players can expect from the quest. Starting on April 13, players finally have their chance to earn special Mega Man themed gear in Monster Hunter World. Finish this event quest to unlock the Mega Man pixel armor for the Palico as well as classic 8-bit Mega Man music that changes based on the weapon that the player has equipped.

While players can still tackle daily challenges, Battle Pass owners now get a new set of seven weekly challenges that remain active for the duration of the season. Week 6 of Season 3 finally arrived yesterday and with it came a new set of seven challenges for Fornite players to tackle. Reddit user thesquatingdog put together a pretty handy cheat sheet of the entire map, listing out all seven challenges and placing markers for where players need to be in order to complete all seven challenges for

Since the launch of Fortnite’s Battle Royale mode, the Tilted Towers spot on the map has been a hot button issue in the community. The tall buildings are a popular place to land and, in many people’s opinion, not a very fun place to play. The theory started with a few different users confirming sightings of a blue, pulsing object moving through the skyline. The game’s current Battle Pass is space themed and there have been some pretty clear hints about an explosion coming towards the end of the

It has been revealed that any and all details about Bethesda’s plans for The Elder Scrolls 6 are considered so secret that the game’s director, Todd Howard, won’t even share them with his own family. This revelation was made by Todd Howard, Bethesda’s director and executive producer, during a recent episode of the AIAS Game Maker’s Notebook, a podcast made by the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences. According to Howard, his own son, who is a fan of the Elder Scrolls series, has asked him for

There has been growing unrest surrounding the Sea of Thieves fan base practically since the game launched, and things came to a head this week when one player hit Pirate Legend status. For those unfamiliar, Pirate Legend was what Rare touted as its true endgame. But as it turns out, the Pirate Legend unlocks are seemingly the same as what is on offer in the main game. It makes sense then that the Sea of Thieves community is frustrated. Frustration over Pirate Legend has also spun into anger at P

In a trailer released today, Jurassic World Evolution‘s official launch date was revealed. As with other titles like Roller Coaster Tycoon, Jurassic World Evolution will task players with building and running a successful theme park.

Just recently, Hello Games confirmed that No Man’s Sky would be coming to the Xbox One in summer 2018, with the action-adventure survival title also receiving a free update that is being called “NEXT” around this time as well. One of the newer clues discovered by the game’s community pointing toward possible VR support is a potentially new Waking Titan site.

About a couple of months ago, an accidental listing by the retailer GameStop revealed the existence of Red Faction: Guerrilla Remastered, which led many to speculate exactly when the title would come to current platforms. Now, the video game publisher THQ Nordic has officially confirmed the release window for the updated version of the third-person shooter, as it’s set to become available at some point during Q2 2018 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
