Although PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds released for PC via Steam’s Early Access service back in March of this year, it seems as if the battle royale game has been in the beta program for nearly an eternity. Now, thankfully, it looks as if the competitive survival shooter will finally go live as a full release, as the title’s developers have officially announced that it is leaving Early Access later this evening. Furthermore, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds‘ 1.0 update will also bring about the abi

It wasn’t too long ago that a recent Pokemon GO datamine of version 0.87.5 indicated that new gift boxes would be added for the popular mobile augmented reality title’s inevitable holiday event. As evidenced by the image below courtesy of the Redditor and Pokemon GO trainer known as kk5566, the Google Play post in Taiwan has several details regarding the game’s holiday event, but it’s safe to presume that most native English speakers will need a translation. As far as the second bullet point in

Not too long ago, a Pokemon GO datamine of version 0.87.5 revealed the developer Niantic had plans to introduce an AR Plus mode that would be a more in-depth version of the popular mobile augmented reality title’s current AR mode. Now, the company has officially confirmed that mode does indeed exist–succinctly named “AR+”–but it will only be implemented in updates on Apple devices. To be more specific, with AR+ enabled in Pokemon GO, should a trainer move closer or further away to the creature o

Of course, while fans wait for the event to go live, they can at least be thankful for a recent quality-of-life change made by Niantic, as the “Leave” button has now been moved to the top of the gym battle screen after beating a Pokemon. As seen in the image below from the Redditor and Pokemon GO trainer known as AyeGee, a gym battle with Snorlax serves as an example of how the change looks with the “Leave” button at the top of the screen. This will definitely improve players’ experiences, as it

As a matter of fact, the video game publisher Activision has now declared the title to be the second best-selling console game for 2017 in North America, based on revenue. Naturally, with Destiny 2 taking second billing in this specific tier for best software sales of the year, another title has to be crowned the best-seller for current generation systems. In addition to the aforementioned sales feat, based on units, Destiny 2 has also become the biggest PC launch in Activision’s publishing hist

After Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare underwhelmed in 2016, Call of Duty: WW2 has proven to be the shot in the arm that the franchise needed thanks in large part to its decision to return to its roots. To keep that momentum going, developer Sledgehammer Games has released the first preview trailer for the game’s first DLC pack known as The Resistance. In the first preview trailer, Sledgehammer co-founder Michael Condrey provides a bit of inspiration behind the first Call of Duty: WW2 DLC pack, sa

Mayhem has returned to the Destiny 2 Crucible, but with it also comes a glitch that is giving Warlocks an unfair advantage by providing them with infinite Nova Bombs. The glitch was discovered just a day after Mayhem made its return to Destiny 2, as a part of the game’s holiday festivities. To initiate the glitch, Warlocks will first need to switch to the Voidwalker subclass and wait until their Super meter to become full. What should happen is it will cancel out the charged grenade, throw a Nov

Pokemon GO players are busy hunting down Groudon this week, but it is very likely that a new batch of activities is about to arrive with the inevitable Christmas holiday event. The datamine included some incredibly exciting news about a new way to catch Pokemon, more information about upcoming Gen 3 arrivals, and an early look at some holiday gift boxes that will likely be added to the game in the next week, or so. This has led some players to speculate that these holiday or New Year’s gifts won

But in addition to that, this is also the first week that players can complete all of the Lost Prophecy Verse weapons for Brother Vance and see if that unlocks anything. As it turns out, the Sagira Ghost Shell that was uncovered when Curse of Osiris first launched is actually tied to the Lost Prophecy weapons. For most players, unlocking the Sagira Ghost Shell is still a few weeks away since the Lost Prophecy weapons require a significant grind to unlock. As an exotic, the Sagira Ghost Shell has

Winter has finally arrived in Destiny 2, as the popular Dawning event from the previous game has made its first appearance in the new Tower and also on the oft-forgotten Farm. Through new Dawning engrams, players can find new ships, sparrows, ghost shells, armor, and much more each week until the event ends next month. Weekly Nightfall StrikeThis week in the Nightfall, players are going after Braccus Zahn in The Arms Dealer. Considering Zero Hour is one of the modifiers this week, players are ad

Now that the forthcoming open beta for Dragon Ball FighterZ is right around the corner, fans of the fighting game are understandably on pins and needles in anticipation for the trial. Nevertheless, Bandai Namco has gone ahead and provided Dragon Ball FighterZ fans the rundown as to which wishes can be chosen, and how they will affect gameplay after being implemented. Bandai Namco hasn’t officially declared that this can be done, but perhaps it will be an option once the title’s release date roll

It’s no secret that PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is a bit of a mess on Xbox One. As explained in the patch notes for the most recent PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds update on Xbox One, PUBG Corporation has squashed a handful of bugs. Besides fixing bugs, the new update for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds on Xbox One also improves some of the game’s animations, gives its graphics a boost, and improves its performance. Even so, the 1 million plus fans will likely appreciate this patch, as it makes th

Destiny 2 fans have spotted a secret code on one of the comic’s pages. It’s Morse code and when translated, it allows fans to unlock a piece of in-game loot for Destiny 2. Redeeming that code will unlock a Destiny 2 emblem called The Visionary (it shows up in the collection under ‘Emblems 2’). The Visionary emblem is just the latest example of Bungie offering free in-game loot (usually emblems) for taking part in things that happen outside of the game. It will also be interesting to see whether

Frustration over the EX Raid system in Pokemon GO has reached a boiling point for some players, who are now signing a petition to eliminate the system altogether. The petition was created by Randy Khoo, a Pokemon GO player out of Kuala Lumpur, who has had it with the way the game chooses its EX Raid participants. Despite following these steps, however, many players still haven’t receive an invite to an EX Raid. This is currently the case with a wave of invites that are asking players to join an

Destiny 2 finally has its first comic adaptation, as Bungie releases its eagerly-anticipated Fall of Osiris for free online. The Fall of Osiris comic tells the story of how Osiris began to be outcast for his views on the Traveller, an event which resulted in the Guardian angering the Speaker and becoming something of a prophet to the masses. Since that point, Osiris has been protecting life from afar, attempting to stop the Vex Mind from attacking the Solar System. In the newly-released Curse of

The latest update for Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp has arrived, and players will finally be able to discover what the the new gardens have in store for them, as their camp sites get a much-needed expansion. Logging onto Pocket Camp after downloading the update will allow Animal Crossing fans to access a small new area to the left of their camping grounds, with new items and content waiting to be uncovered. Although the garden update was teased for a January release, Nintendo has seen fit to rele

Once all of the Virtual Cabin 2.0 puzzles are complete, the game reveals that the Uber Jason skin and a new Grendel Map are coming soon for Friday the 13th. But the real highlight for players is the reveal of the Uber Jason skin. Even before Friday the 13th officially released in late May, fans were clamoring for a skin designed after Jason’s look in Jason X. Where the other iterations of Jason have been more traditional in their design, this Uber Jason had a shiny chrome mask, piercing red eyes

After fans complained that Three of Coins appeared to be doing virtually nothing over the weekend, Bungie has come back with some answers. One complaint was that the Three of Coins item itself is very non-specific as to what exactly it does. According to Bungie, a fix to the Heroic Strikes playlist will come to Destiny 2 in early 2018. But it appears that despite players thinking otherwise, Three of Coins is functioning as intended except for within the Heroic Strike playlist. That leaves the ch

With the release of Monster Hunter: World about a month away, many fans may be clamoring for news on the game. Monster Hunter is a series known for its longevity, and this newest addition is no different. It was also previously confirmed that Monster Hunter: World would receive free DLC. However, when it does, Monster Hunter: World may just live up to the hype with its lengthy story mode and post-story content. Monster Hunter: World will launch on January 26th, 2018 for PS4 and Xbox One, with a

iOS platform holder Apple has now released its annual list of the top 20 most downloaded iOS games and Pokemon GO has not managed to secure a place. But the chart may just indicate that Pokemon GO has already found its entire player base. If that is the case then it highlights why Pokemon GO developer Niantic will need to do even more to keep the current player base entertained. At this point, it’s unclear exactly how far these features will go towards appeasing disgruntled Pokemon GO players. T
