Max Brass, the final character the the ARMS Grand Prix single player mode, will become the first downloadable fighter to be added to the player’s roster. The news came straight from Nintendo two weeks ago, and now the Japan-based company has followed up with an official trailer for the bulky champion. The highlight reel shows plenty of advantages for those who suit up with the ARMS fighter, as while he’s in big mode he won’t flinch if he takes damage while charging his arms, and they’ll remained

Since Pokemon GO added Raid Battles with its latest Gym update developer Niantic has made clear that the experience is a work in progress. The gameplay may be set in stone but how exactly Raid Battles will function is still fluid, and can change at any time. That’s because, as players have found out, Pokemon GO does not scale down the Raid Bosses in the game. Meaning if a level 6 player can take on, defeat, and capture a level 20 Pokemon boss, should he/she be skilled enough to do so. Since the

Phil Harrison, former executive for both Sony and Microsoft, is back talking games during the Barcelona-based Gamelab conference and his thoughts on the Nintendo Switch are of note. He transitioned smoothly from worrying about Sony and Microsoft’s efforts to bring in new players, or lack thereof, to lauding the Nintendo Switch, which he described as the favored console in his home. It’s interesting to consider Phil’s language regarding Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo. Phil talks about having two s

Now that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild finally has some new content, the speedrunning community has begun to migrate back to one of Nintendo’s finest games. It only took players five hours to beat Breath of the Wild‘s Master Trials DLC after it had launched, and the torrid pace has continued as talented speedrunners all attempt to one-up each other for world firsts using the additional content. A Canadian speedrunner named Loloup managed to beat the entirety of Breath of the Wild‘s Tri

A couple weeks ago, gamers were ecstatic to learn that Rockstar Games may be looking into adding cross-platform play for its upcoming sequel, Red Dead Redemption 2. Now, a new rumor is circulating that Rockstar’s focus on cross-play for Red Dead Redemption 2 is the reason the game is getting delayed to 2018. That said, the concept is certainly compelling given Rockstar’s desire to see cross-play come to pass for Red Dead Redemption 2. So the idea that Red Dead Redemption 2 is delayed because of

Last week, Niantic released one of the most substantial updates for Pokemon GO to date, making significant changes to gyms and adding co-op raid battles. Niantic at first only allowed the highest level players to participate, however, perhaps as a way to test the feature before giving all players access to raiding. By rolling back the level requirement for raids to level 5, almost all Pokemon GO players will now be able to fight raid bosses and attempt to earn legendary items. Most of the raid b

Considering this, fans are expecting the company to celebrate Pokemon GO‘s anniversary in a big way, and while nothing official has been announced, evidence of an anniversary event has been discovered in the game’s latest update. Right now, the most likely scenario is that Niantic will add a Pikachu variant to Pokemon GO on the game’s anniversary. It wouldn’t be the first time Niantic has added a Pikachu variant to Pokemon GO to celebrate a special event. Beyond adding a Pikachu variant, it’s po

Pokemon GO is a game that has thrived on the presence of whispers and rumors about its upcoming content. Just what that rare Pikachu is going to look like, however, has been the subject of a lot of debate. According to the short, Pokemon GO will soon see the addition of Pikachu wearing Ash Ketchum’s iconic hat. The short shows a Pikachu wearing Ash’s hat walking by a PokeStop, only to be interrupted by a Ho-Oh flying by and blowing the hat away while spinning the PokeStop. Naturally, until an of

The Destiny 2 Beta is just three weeks away, and there are a number of small features and changes to the Destiny formula that have changed from Destiny 1 that are worth knowing before going into the beta. Knowing this should help players in the Destiny 2 Beta, especially when it comes to PvP. And of course, also playing into that is how the developers have tuned the actual damage of each weapon. Motion Tracker has changedThe Motion Tracker still exists in Destiny 2, but works differently from th

So far, Call of Duty: WW2 is endearing itself to fans of the Call of Duty franchise and to fans of shooters in general. Now, the developer has given another update on the title, confirming that all loot box rewards are cosmetic in nature. The news comes courtesy of Sledgehammer Games studio head and co-founder Michael Condrey, who took part in a Reddit AMA about the development of Call of Duty: WW2. In terms of how these rewards will look, gamers should perhaps not expect some of the more garish

The last few weeks have seen gamers suggesting that the Summer Games event will be returning to Overwatch in the not too distant future. Dataminers have combed through the latest PTR build of Overwatch and managed to find two new sprays, the most notable of which is a Summer Games 2017 logo. Fans expecting a big cosmetic overhaul will be slightly disappointed as the datamined Summer Games logo is largely similar to last year’s one, with only a few minor differences separating the two. The second

The Grand Theft Auto 5 data mining community has uncovered a secret Supply Mission featuring a downed UFO. As said, the mission asks the player to visit a UFO crash site and recover secret alien technology. The mystery remains as to how to activate the UFO crash site Supply Mission without manipulating the game’s data, if it can be activated at all. As interesting as it is to see the UFO crash site in motion, the hope has always been discovering a way to make the UFO usable in-game. This UFO cra

Pokemon GO has been nothing short of a massive success ever since its release last July, managing to hit revenue milestone after revenue milestone. According to the latest financial data, the mega-popular mobile game has continued to make plenty of money and has now earned a whopping $1.2 billion in total revenue. Having earned a total of $950 million in total revenue in 2016, that number has since increased to $1.2 billion in 2017. Couple those revenue numbers with a total of 752 million downlo

One of the great mysteries of Destiny 2 is what secrets the game’s endgame activity, the raid, will hold. According to Luke Smith, game director on Destiny 2, fans should expect a comparable release timeframe as they saw with the raids in Destiny 1. To compare, Destiny’s first raid, Vault of Glass went live an entire week after the launch of vanilla Destiny. So, it’s probably safe to assume that the raid will launch within three to seven days after Destiny 2’s launch on September 6. Also, no det

Ubisoft expounded on Far Cry 5’s drop-in drop-out co-op today, noting that it won’t be as functional as some players may have been expecting. This mirrors the same functionality as Far Cry 4, which also offered 2-player co-op in the game’s campaign. Far Cry 3 offered up to 4-player online co-op, but only for specific non-campaign content. So in the grand scheme of things, Far Cry 5 could have done a lot worse with regards to cooperative multiplayer options. Far Cry 5 is scheduled to launch on Fe

Now, the title’s creators have provided another update on its production process by offering a look at concept art for a few of the new characters to be added, and confirming it will showcase the game at gamescom 2017. As of now, however, none of these figures have been given official names, but it’s likely that Ys Net will provide them with certain designations come gamescom 2017. Of course, it’s really anyone’s guess as to what Ys Net will have to say at gamescom 2017, as the developer could a

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds‘ developers are considering adding aim-assist functionality for console players should the multiplayer shooter enable cross-platform play in the future. It can then be adjusted to be stronger or weaker until console players are effectively winning as much as they’re losing again PC players. Cross-play communities effectively fall into three camps regarding aim-assist for console players. The second camp believes in cross-play, but that aim-assist should be removed,

Following the release of the rather sumptuous offerings in Grand Theft Auto Online‘s Gunrunning update, Rockstar Games has beefed the multiplayer component of GTA 5 once more with the Independence Day update, which adds a brand new game mode as well as a fresh Super Car. When it comes to the Dewbauchee Vagner, Grand Theft Auto Online fans can get a gander at the Super Car in the image below, but in order to unlock it in the game at Legendary Motorsport, it will set them back $1,535,000 of in-gam

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild gave gamers dozens of hours of gameplay, exploration, plot, quests, and side-quests. The first The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild DLC offers a new challenge mode called Trial of the Sword for players hoping to test their combat and survival skills. As expressed in the title’s positive reviews, a lot of what makes The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild such an incredible game is the ability to play around, try things again a different way, and experim

It’s no secret that the Nintendo Switch has been hard to find due to supply shortages since the console launched in March. Now, UK video game retailer GAME is blaming its current financial issues on the low Nintendo Switch stock. Apparently, GAME was already worried about a rough finish to the year, but was hoping the Nintendo Switch could help drive up revenues toward the end of the fiscal year. That, plus the Nintendo Switch shortage drove the company’s share price down by 30 percent. The Nint
