Now, Sony Interactive Entertainment has confirmed the sequels’ popularity on its current generation console by revealing that both of the aforementioned Activision-published properties were the two most-downloaded PS4 games for 2017. Due to Call of Duty: WW2 and Destiny 2‘s mass appeal and extensive global reach, it won’t be too surprising for many gamers to learn that they rank as the top downloads for PS4 in 2017. To be specific, Destiny 2‘s Expansion Pass took the number two slot, while Call

God of War is easily one of the biggest PlayStation 4 games slated for release in 2018. Game director Cory Barlog has now revealed a lot more information about the new God of War by answering 102 rapid-fire questions. Check out the rapid-fire interview with God of War game director Cory Barlog right here:Besides revealing side quests and unlockable costumes, Barlog also touches on some other interesting points about the new God of War game. So even though the new God of War is clearly focused on

It would make sense for Halo 6 to cash in on the battle royale craze. As battle royale games continue to grow in popularity, it wouldn’t be surprising to see many big franchises attempt to emulate PUBG‘s success. However, Halo 6 having a high player count could simply mean that it will support more players than the 24 that can play Halo 5‘s Warzone mode. While Halo 6 supporting a higher player count than past games in the series does sound exciting, fans should keep in mind that this is unverifi

Although the new God of War is set to depart from the series’ formula in many ways, developer Sony Santa Monica is still promising a familiar linear experience. In a past interview, the developer confirmed that God of War would not be open world, despite the popularity of the genre in character action games. However, in a new interview with game director Cory Barlog, it has been confirmed that God of War will feature side quests, although they won’t be called that. Check out the full interview b

Seviper and Zangoose, two iconic feuding Pokemon, would be regional exclusives available on two different sides of the world. But there’s more good news: The regional exclusives have now moved locations. The big question for many Pokemon GO player is whether Niantic will introduce more location swaps for regional exclusives. Moreover, the developer often puts regional exclusives in different locations as part of limited time events. Paired regional exclusives are another question, so Pokemon GO

On a micro scale, though, one fan decided to craft a physical Red Dwarf Hand Cannon with the use of a 3D printer. For those unaware, the Red Dwarf is technically not a gun in Destiny 2, as it is instead a Weapon Ornament that one can apply to the actual firearm known as the Sunshot Exotic Hand Cannon in order to give it a different appearance. Of course, there are far more fan-made wares that have come to fruition following Destiny 2‘s launch, and it seems as if each project looks more polished

Capcom has revealed new details and a new trailer for Monster Hunter: World. In the trailer, two of the Elder Dragons revealed are the steel dragon Kushala Daora and the flame king dragon Teostra. These battles will seemingly challenge veterans of the series, as Monster Hunter: World may attract new and returning players. While it was previously confirmed that Monster Hunter: World would receive free DLC, details have been sparse. Nothing else has been revealed, but this small taste may very wel

Two of the biggest Nintendo Switch announcements out of 2017 were that Bayonetta 3 is in development as a Switch exclusive and that Metroid Prime 4 is in the works, too. It now says “The year 2017 has definitely been Nintendo’s year and we are looking forward to new and exciting titles in 2018!” (via Google Translate) and makes no mention of either Bayonetta 3 or Metroid Prime 4. The Swedish version of roughly the same text says ”we already know that Bayonetta 3, Metroid Prime 4 and a new Pokémo

One of the biggest matches on the card was between Bullet Club member Kenny Omega and legendary wrestler Chris Jericho, with video game enthusiast Omega entering the ring as Osiris from Destiny 2‘s Curse of Osiris expansion. The Eververse isn’t the only reason why Destiny 2 has been heavily criticized these past couple of months, however. Besides the Eververse controversy, Destiny 2 has also been criticized for utilizing XP and Glimmer farming caps without telling players. Bungie has said that i

Fans continue to speculate about major Nintendo Switch releases, including ports of some of the biggest games around. One rumor currently doing the rounds is that a Red Dead Redemption remaster is in development for the Nintendo Switch. This other project “sounds like it may be a Red Dead Redemption remaster,” says DasVergeben. With all of this in mind, it seems very unlikely that a Red Dead Redemption remaster is coming to the Switch, much less that it will be announced during the Nintendo Dire

However, some fans might be disappointed to learn that the scene in question won’t actually be appearing in the forthcoming sequel. What kind of violence is okay in what is perceived as a marketing piece? Should a marketing piece need to convey every facet of the game? There’s a marketing campaign, each piece can’t possibly tell you everything about the game, only the game can tell you everything about the game. At any rate, Druckmann’s revelation that the trailer won’t be in the game will defin

Several months ago, it was revealed that Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle became the best-selling third-party game for the Switch, with loads of Nintendo acolytes flocking to the title to experience its XCOM-esque gameplay set in the Mushroom Kingdom. As seen in the tweet below from the Twitter account “SwitchIndie,” a listing on the Japanese eShop page for Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle‘s expansion pass potentially leaked the release date for the game’s first story DLC as June 30, 2018. Not a N

Finch was shot and killed as soon as he answered the door, and after an investigation, police located and arrested Tyler Barriss for making the call. As it turns out, this isn’t the first time Barriss has faced prison for a swatting incident. Since Barriss is a repeat offender and this latest swatting incident resulted in the death of another person, he could be facing serious time in prison. Something else that will be taken into account is the ridiculous reason why Barriss decided to send poli

After the weekly reset arrived this past Tuesday for Destiny 2, players began reporting a clan related issue where the Nightfall engram wasn’t unlocking after The Garden World Nightfall strike was cleared. Digging into the issue, Bungie discovered a bug and decided to switch out the Nightfall strike for this week to mitigate the issue for players. In order to unlock the related clan reward for this week, players will need to finish the Nightfall again, this time set on The Inverted Spire. To mit

Over the last 12 months, The Last of Us and Uncharted developer Naughty Dog has lost several key figures. Shaun Escayg, who had worked at Naughty Dog for seven years, has also announced that he is leaving the developer too. He then worked on standalone DLC The Last of Us: Left Behind as well as Uncharted 4 and most recently he was the writer and creative director of Uncharted: The Lost Legacy. Left Behind, Uncharted 4 were fleeting and Uncharted The Lost Legacy pushed my creative growth even fur

In a recent interview, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild producer Eiji Aonuma and game director Hidemaro Fujibayashi discussed a major feature of the game: the open world component and how it resulted in speed runs of the game. Considering players can approach Calamity Ganon from the start of the game and complete shrines with simple physics, the open world affected Breath of the Wild in unforeseeable ways. Concerning the “open-air” design of Breath of the Wild, Aonuma made a few comments

Back in January 2017, Blizzard decided to celebrate Diablo 3‘s 20th anniversary in a delightfully retro fashion by recreating the entirety of the first game in the series as a dungeon for the third installment, calling it Darkening of Tristram. Diablo 3‘s Darkening of Tristram went partially live recently, and it operates similarly to its debut in 2017. Perhaps most interesting is how the dungeon for Diablo 3‘s Darkening of Tristram event looks so much different than the rest of the game. Those

Following Destiny 2‘s launch back in September 2017, Bungie caught a lot of flak from fans when it chose to implement a content lockout for Iron Banner and Faction Rallies if players lacked the game’s Curse of Osiris DLC. As a matter of fact, the patch notes are incredibly brief, for they only consist of two headers with two single sentences apiece, as they both read, “Players who do not own Curse of Osiris may once again access” Iron Banner and Faction Rallies. While most Destiny 2 fans will li

After its introduction into Destiny 1, the microtransaction store known as Eververse has been a very divisive element for the fanbase. According to Schreier, Bungie approached Activision during the early days of Destiny regarding the studio’s declining ability to produce new downloadable content every few months. Part of the issue stemmed from the tight schedule and the fact that the development tools were hard to work with and create content from. Eververse served as a way to provide a bit of r

When asked why Star Wars Battlefront 2 opted to link progression to microtransactions instead of cosmetics, EA’s CFO Blake Jorgensen brought up the notion of a “Pink Darth Vader” skin, claiming it would violate canon and likely irritate fans. In the meantime, Blake Jorgensen attempted to quell some of the backlash by explaining EA’s reasoning for foregoing the oft-used practice of making the microtransactions purely cosmetic in Star Wars Battlefront 2. Not to mention you probably don’t want Dart
