EA removed microtransactions from Star Wars Battlefront 2 following the outcry over the game’s progression system, as many people felt that the game is “pay to win.” But although that removal was meant to be temporary, new comments from EA suggest that it could end up being permanent. It’s not hard to see why EA may consider dropping microtransactions from the game altogether. Moreover, sales of Star Wars Battlefront 2 dropped by over 60% when compared to the first game. Though, if EA does ultim

Season 2 of Destiny 2 is in full swing after having launched right alongside the Curse of Osiris expansion. In order to craft these weapons, players will need to do some resource gathering, with each weapon having different crafting costs. One of the resources for creating Lost Prophecy weapons is known as Radiolarian Culture, traditionally found in small amounts from Public Events on Mercury. Once the message appears, turn around and head back through the portal to the Vex filled room players w

Players began picking through the update shortly after it was posted to APK sites, and within it they found that the game’s battle UI will also be receiving some changes. According to their findings, the changes will only affect how players battle in gyms and raids. The current method of battling in Pokemon GO has players using both a fast move and a charge move. Lastly, the “charge meter” that tracks how powerful a move is has moved from the top right to below the charge button, which makes a l

The new Curse of Osiris DLC has only been out for a little over a day but already Destiny 2 players are frustrated with the add-on expansion. This issue first appeared when Destiny 2 players realized that, after Bungie raised the recommended power level to 330 for the Prestige Nightfall and Prestige Raid, players without the DLC would be unable to complete them. Since a player needs to have Curse of Osiris to increase their power level past 305, anyone without the DLC will find these activities

Destiny 2 appears to be holding back an exotic Ghost shell along with how to obtain this item. The Ghost shell in question looks like Sagira, the Ghost belonging to titular character Osiris from the new DLC. However, even at the end of the story told in the DLC, players are not awarded the exotic Ghost shell, officially called Sagira’s Shell. All the exotic Ghost shells have the Omni-Telemetry perk, but again, the Scion of Mercury perk is unique to Sagira’s Shell. This is sure to be an exotic Gh

According to Bungie, Guardians will be able to take on Destiny 2‘s Eater of Worlds raid lair beginning on Friday, December 8, at 10:00 AM PT, provided that they have already purchased the Curse of Osiris DLC.

After having waited six years for the followup to Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds, it’s safe to say that many fighting game aficionados the world over have been somewhat underwhelmed by Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, as the title has received myriad mixed or average reviews from both fans and critics alike. According to a recent blog post from Capcom, the issue was discovered following the release of Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite‘s December 5 content update, but it is apparently not too wide

NetherRealm Studios turned a lot of heads last month when the studio revealed that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were joining Enchantress and The Atom in the third Fighter Pack for the DC Comics fighter, Injustice 2. Longtime protégé of the former Atom Ray Palmer, scientist Ryan Choi joins the Injustice 2 roster armed with the character’s trademark quantum bio-belt along with a vast knowledge of physics.

However, some fans are upset that features like the weather system are being added before things that were promised before launch, like Pokemon trading and PvP battling. In response to these concerns, Niantic has revealed that Pokemon trading is still in the cards, but there is still no timetable for when it will be added to the game. However, others may be fine waiting on Pokemon trading if it means that other new features, like the dynamic weather system, are added instead. When fans found out

Last month, it was announced that the state of Hawaii had begun an investigation into Star Wars Battlefront 2‘s loot boxes. Democratic State Representative Chris Lee was incredibly critical of the business model and accused EA of creating a “Star Wars-themed casino.”But in a new YouTube video, Lee explains that more can be done than just investigate, as the United States lawmaker also proposes a ban on video games with loot boxes. Some states already restrict people under the age of 21 from gamb

The latest one involves a certain famous character from Destiny lore, which some players might regard as spoilers. Curious, Wolvhammer took out a sniper rifle and peered in, only to discover a body floating in the center of the room with purple ribbons gently floating off its body. Putting two and two together, a new theory has developed that the strange floating body is indeed the legendary Saint-14. Not everyone appears to be sold on the identity of this new floating body theory, however. Acco

A new teaser trailer has been released for Arc System Works’ upcoming DragonBall FighterZ, showing off Gohan in his Ultimate form. Adult Gohan, who was first introduced in the Buu Saga of DragonBall Z, has surpassed the Super Saiyan 2 state that he used to defeat Cell and is able to go toe-to-toe against opponents such as Super Saiyan Blue Goku in the currently-airing DragonBall Super. The short but sweet trailer shows off some of Adult Gohan’s moveset in DragonBall FighterZ, with classic attack

The first taste of gen 3 arrived in Pokemon GO during the popular Halloween event, but players have been eager to hunt down the rest of the Hoenn region creatures since then. After a few months of waiting, it sounds like the next small wave of gen 3 Pokemon are ready to make their debut on the mobile AR game. According to a new press release from the developer, Pokemon GO with release the gen 3 starters later this week, along with a handful of other Pokemon from Ruby and Sapphire. The combinatio

Mercury offers plenty of new things to see and do, from The Lighthouse social space to a new public event. The Mercury public event also has a heroic version, but just like the Heroic Public Events in the base Destiny 2 game, Curse of Osiris DLC players will have to go out of their way to activate it. Completing a Heroic Public Event rewards players with 500 clan XP (as opposed to 250 clan XP from the garden variety Public Event), which is especially useful for unlocking the Season 2 clan reward

Previously, Niantic stated that generation-three Pokémon would be added to Pokémon GO “starting gradually” in December. This bit of news accompanied the generation three Ghost-type Pokémon that became available around Halloween, but now it seems the starters will soon be available themselves. Each of these Pokémon were popular starters for Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, and the ad appears to be identical to the Halloween ad (with the substitution of the starters for the Ghost-types).

Thanks to the sales failure that was the Wii U, it’s easy to forgive people for not believing in the Nintendo Switch. The Nintendo Switch’s success is no accident, and there are a few reasons why the Switch is succeeding where the Wii U failed. Games are arguably the biggest reason why the Nintendo Switch is succeeding where the Wii U failed, as the Switch has already amassed an impressive collection of games, some of which are first-party exclusives. Nintendo seems confident that it will be abl

As is typical with every expansion, Destiny 2‘s Curse of Osiris introduces a collection of new exotic weapons and armor for players to chase.

The Curse of Osiris DLC is now available for Destiny 2, and while some Guardians are excited to dive into more content, others are upset with the way Bungie is handling the expansion. As it turns out, playing the Leviathan raid on Prestige difficulty is no longer possible for vanilla Destiny 2 players, as the content now requires the Curse of Osiris DLC. Many Destiny 2 enthusiasts were likely planning on buying the Curse of Osiris DLC, but may change their minds as a way to rebel against Bungie’
