With Destiny 2‘s PC launch now just days away, developer Bungie has detailed a schedule of events that will be coming to the upcoming port after it releases. It seems that, like console fans, PC players will have to wait a while for their additional content, though there should be plenty to keep them busy in the mean time. When Destiny 2 launches on October 24, players will have access to the first-person shooter’s regular missions and online matchmaking. The Nightfall Strike will also be availa

South Park: The Fractured But Whole has a number of challenging boss battles, but the most difficult is a secret fight against none other than Morgan Freeman. Once players can visit downtown South Park, they can immediately start the boss fight against Morgan Freeman. As we stated earlier, the secret boss fight against Morgan Freeman stands as the toughest boss battle in the entire game. It’s worth noting that it’s possible to freeze young Morgan Freeman, whereas older Morgan Freeman is immune t

Everyone’s favorite Destiny 2 exotic vendor has returned with a new selection of exotic items to sell to players. LocationThis week, Destiny 2 players can find Xur on Titan, in the Rig area. ArmorXur’s exotic armor selection this weekend includes the Raiden Flux chest piece for Hunters, the Doom Fang Pauldron gauntlets for Titans, and the Winter’s Guile gauntlets for Warlocks. The Hunter chest piece is a great option for players that like to run Arcstrider. WeaponFor his exotic weapon, Xur is se

Before we get into details about this boss fight, we must warn that the following contains some spoilers for South Park: The Fractured But Whole. The boss fight in question takes place during the main quest called The Many Asses of Dr. Mephesto. In South Park: The Fractured But Whole, characters can’t complete an action in a space occupied by someone else. If this was the only issue we ran into with the Mutant Cousin Kyle boss fight, it wouldn’t be worth writing about. Our experience with the Mu

As promised last week, developer Bungie has detailed more about the challenge modes coming to the Leviathan raid in Destiny 2. Starting on Tuesday, October 31, one encounter of Destiny 2‘s raid will be selected to have a challenge mode. Just as challenge modes have functioned in the past, this will require raid teams to approach and complete that encounter in a special way. As for the rewards players will receive, beating each challenge mode for the first time will award a special emblem. Bungie

For years, Visceral Games had been working on a single player Star Wars game until the studio was unceremoniously shut down a few days ago. Todd Stashwick, who was co-writing the game with Uncharted series writer Amy Hennig, recently took to Twitter to speak about Visceral’s version of the Star Wars game. At the time of this writing, it’s unclear if Hennig is still working on EA’s single-player Star Wars game or not. In the meantime, it will be interesting to see if EA Vancouver retains any of t

The long-awaited trailer for Star Wars Battlefront 2‘s single player campaign released this morning, with just under a month left before the online multiplayer shooter’s launch. This is a timespan that’s largely been unexplored in Star Wars canon, as Star Wars: The Force Awakens doesn’t start for some time afterward. Skepticism continues to surround the Star Wars Battlefront 2 trailer, despite the interest in its premise. And second, the closure of Visceral Games and the reworking of its in-deve

During the most recent Pokemon-only Nintendo Direct presentation, many gamers the world over were disappointed to learn that the next core installments in the series would be locked to the 3DS/2DS systems in lieu of the Nintendo Switch. As it turns out, the arrival of those titles, Pokemon Ultra Sun and Pokemon Ultra Moon, will also mark the last time a mainline Pocket Monster title will appear on the less-powerful Nintendo handheld. This much was confirmed in an interview between IGN and Game F

Final Fantasy 15 had a number of impressive qualities at launch, but perhaps none were as noticeable immediately as the game’s environmental design. Final Fantasy 15: Pocket Edition, then, seems like it has a flaw in its core design philosophy—Square Enix has taken the beating heart of its latest Final Fantasy title and lessened its pulse slightly. The decision to bring Final Fantasy 15 to mobile platforms has, however, limited the way the game can recreate its environment. Final Fantasy 15: Poc

After a number of delays, South Park: The Fractured But Whole is now available to the masses. South Park: The Fractured But Whole doesn’t employ a traditional leveling system, but rather has players increase their stats by equipping artifacts. Aim the cursor at anything, and typically if it is shining, it can be manipulated with Snap n Pops. Players may notice that the bathtub’s plug is yellow – the universal sign in South Park: The Fractured But Whole that the item can be interacted with. South

When Star Wars Battlefront launched in 2015, one of the biggest criticisms leveled at the reboot was its lack of a single-player campaign. The inclusion of such a mode was one of the first things that EA announced about Star Wars Battlefront 2 – and the finished product should please fans a great deal. Earlier this month, Game Rant was invited to EA’s office in New York City to play through the first three missions of the Star Wars Battlefront 2 campaign. Based on the early going, it seems like

While it feels like World of Warcraft: Legion launched relatively recently, in actuality the expansion has been out for over a year already, and it now seems that Blizzard is already preparing World of Warcraft‘s next expansion. The beta servers displayed implementation of a Patch 8.0 briefly yesterday before Blizzard noticed and changed the designation, but not before some eagle-eyed redditors, like tiwuno, managed to grab a screenshot. Now that the 8.0 patch has been revealed, it wouldn’t be s

Following the recent controversy surrounding the closure of Visceral Studios by Electronic Arts, and the changes made to the upcoming Star Wars title, a new tweet from God of War director Cory Barlog holds an important message for gamers and developers alike. According to the acclaimed God of War director, a linear experience in a video game is not necessary a negative feature. The upcoming God of War will be making big changes from previous releases, but the core gameplay will be similar in man

Over the past week or so, Pokemon GO fans have caught on to several teases and hints that Gen 3 Pokemon would be added to the game. Proving that nothing can get past eagle-eyed fans, today, Niantic has finally announced exactly when those Pokemon will be available. In a press release sent out today, Niantic confirmed that the Pokemon GO Gen 3 release date is October 20. These Gen 3 Pokemon will appear alongside an “increased” number of existing Pokemon, such as Gastly, Cubone, Misdreavus, Houndo

The Nintendo Switch continues its hot streak since its start earlier this year. RequirementsAt this time, video capture only extends to four specific Nintendo Switch titles: ARMS, Splatoon 2, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Before getting started, the four compatible Switch titles also need to first be on specific versions of the software in order to allow for video capture. With that, players can now capture, edit, and post video clips right from their Nintendo

Already, the gaming community knew that Call of Duty: WW2 would paint a violent picture of the Second World War. There was one difference in these two ratings of Call of Duty: WW2, however – a mention in the initial classification of “threat of sexual violence” has been removed. The scene comes when the user is controlling Rousseau, one of the multiple playable characters of Call of Duty: WW2. The classification board gave feedback to Activision in order to remove the “threat of sexual violence”

Early on in South Park: The Fractured but Whole, players are required to find the code to unlock the door to the secret Coon and Friends lair in Cartman’s basement. On top of that, it’s a neat way to send a message to cheaters – play the game for real. All in all, South Park: The Fractured but Whole is a great return for the property to the world of gaming, building on the success of South Park: The Stick of Truth. When it comes with the South Park brand of comedy though, it’s always bound to ge

This week, Destiny 2 launched the Prestige version of its Leviathan Raid. Overall Prestige Raid ChangesThe good news is that the no revive punishment is completely gone from the Prestige version of Leviathan. Now, players get the same Revive Tokens as in the normal version of the Destiny 2 raid, with one slight change. The other overall change for the Prestige version of Leviathan is that enemies are rated at power level 300. Bungie tempered players’ expectations by saying that the Prestige Raid

The Destiny 2 Nightfall Strike this week has been changed due to a bug that prevents completion of the Prestige version. The Destiny 2 Nightfall this week was originally the Exodus Crash Strike, however players were impeded by a bug that kept them from finishing. To mitigate issues encountered by players in the Exodus Crash Nightfall strike, this week’s Nightfall has been changed to Pyramidion. — Bungie Help (@BungieHelp) October 18, 2017In addition to a change in strike, the Nightfall modifiers

When Electronic Arts (EA) announced on Tuesday that Visceral Games was closing its doors for good, and that the studio’s in-development Star Wars project had been delayed and passed on to a different Vancouver-based studio, game lovers were understandably disappointed. But the news has had a ripple effect, inciting the same response in investors who grew concerned when they noticed that EA’s stock shares had dropped following the official announcement. Looking forward, but not as far ahead as 20
