Heroes of the Storm just launched its major 2.0 update and is holding a new Overwatch-themed event where players can unlock new Genji and D.Va skins. The Heroes of the Storm 2.0 update focuses mainly on revamping the game’s meta progression and monetization systems. All four weeks feature a combination of Heroes of the Storm and Overwatch loot, though certain weeks offer more substantial rewards than others. Here’s what players can expect as a reward for each week’s quest completion:Week 1 Overw

The world of Overwatch has been crossing over into Heroes of the Storm in a big way as of late, and it all appears to be tying into the game’s big 2.0 update. Featuring loot boxes in a similar fashion to Overwatch, the latest update is bringing with it several major nods to Blizzard’s blockbuster first-person shooter. Those eager to see the latest eye-poppingly gorgeous Heroes of the Storm cinematic can do so below. Although Tracer, Zarya, and Heroes of the Storm‘s newly added Lucio are still sa

Pokemon GO players hatched 87 million eggs during the game’s Eggstravaganza event, developer Niantic confirms. Eggstravaganza was the name of the mobile title’s first ever Easter event and offered players several bonuses and benefits for playing the game during this time. In a post to the game’s official Facebook page, Niantic revealed that 87 million eggs were hatched during the Pokemon GO Easter event. Or, the interest and the headlines surrounding the Easter event may have been the reason why

Although Sonic Forces‘ most recent trailer unveiled a more “modern” experience with the Blue Blur, fans of the franchise may be excited to learn that the release’s newest piece of footage also promises that the title will contain some “classic” action by providing side-scrolling gameplay with the series’ famous Green Hill Zone level. This builds upon previously revealed information that the upcoming game will allow players to take on the role of both a 3D and 2D version of Sonic the Hedgehog. Of

It’s been a busy morning for Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite. Capcom not only dropped a brand new story trailer, but also laid out pre-order details and what fans can expect to find in the game’s various special editions. The deluxe edition for Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite will also include access to six post-launch characters, with Sigma being touted as the first to be released. There’s a lot of Marvel vs. Capcom information to digest, but it’s likely created a great deal of hype for the upcoming fi

Now, it seems as if even more unsanctioned information is making the rounds online, as GameStop marketing materials for the release have leaked to reveal details for the shooter’s special edition. As seen in the tweet below from the Twitter account “JEEZUSHiGH,” Call of Duty: WW2 is going to have a special version that’s known as a “Pro Edition,” and it will contain the base game, a collectible steelbook, and the title’s season pass, confirming as one would expect that the game will have post-la

If there wasn’t video footage to back it up, it’d be easy to write off the first story details for Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite as pure fan fiction. And so they do, marking Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite as having the first combo character in the franchise’s history, but hopefully not the last. These characters are Thor, Mega Man, Captain America, Captain Marvel, Strider Hiryu, Chun-Li, Hawkeye, Iron Man, Chris Redfield, and Rocket Raccoon. The Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite story trailer really sets th

The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind is set to make some major changes to Bethesda’s MMORPG, with a list of planned improvements for the new expansion that rivals the exhaustive patch notes gamers often expect out of Blizzard’s World of Warcraft updates. While the biggest news coming out of Morrowind is undoubtedly the inclusion of a new class in The Elder Scrolls Online, however, many of the game’s biggest fans have stayed in Bethesda’s online world thanks to its expansive, Tolkien-esque game wo

Fans that have been waiting over a decade to play Kingdom Hearts 3 are going to have to wait a little longer. However, Kingdom Hearts 3 doesn’t have any release window listed beyond fiscal year 2018. Square Enix has said in the past that Kingdom Hearts 3 will be shown in 2017, and considering the franchise’s popularity, it seems likely that such a showing could take place as soon as E3 2017 in June. Besides Kingdom Hearts 3, fans will notice that there are a couple of other high profile Square E

In a brief video posted by Capcom, Resident Evil 7 Director Koshi Nakanishi and Producer Masachika Kawata reveal the Not a Hero DLC has been delayed. Not a Hero, for those that might not know, was the third piece piece of DLC for Resident Evil 7. Not a Hero is bound to be a huge draw for Resident Evil fans, due in large part to its star character. Not a Hero, however, is expected to be a genuine extension of the Resident Evil 7 story. Resident Evil 7 is out now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

With such a large map to explore, one gamer put together a GIF that shows how the map from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild compares to other Zelda titles, as well as The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim’s map. This isn’t the first time gamers have attempted to put the size of the Breath of the Wild map into perspective. The comparison to Skyrim’s map isn’t surprising, considering the Skyrim map has become a standard for many gamers when considering map size. However, as the GIF of the map compari

Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a game that definitely believes there is more than one way to skin a cat… Or, in this case, skin a bat. Usually, a big rain storm in Breath of the Wild spells disaster for Link. If you can survive all of that, one overlooked upside to a rain storm though is that it can be used to defeat certain fire enemies. This is just one more addition to the long list of ways players have been able to take advantage of Breath of the Wild’s incredibly detail-oriented ope

Despite a few controversies in Overwatch, Blizzard is still one of the most profitable developers in the gaming industry. Some enterprising analysts have dug into a recent job posting from Blizzard that might indicate the company’s roadmap, too – it appears that Blizzard is committing resources to the development of a brand new mobile title. The news emerges from a vacancy posting on the Blizzard Careers page that is looking for a software engineer “to contribute to Blizzard’s mobile gaming effo

Speaking of which, one fan continues this particular tradition in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild by having created a bizarre contraption that allows them to ride a Guardian Stalker while flying through the air on a raft. Interestingly enough, this isn’t the first time that a player in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has been able to fly without using Link’s paraglider, as one fan combined the Magnesis Rune and a minecart to achieve the power of flight. Of course, if air travel i

But does a promotional image for the game’s Beta give a hint at a class of ship that will be coming in Destiny 2? The image in question can be seen in multiple places, as it is the “Pre-order and get Beta Early Access” logo used in the marketing for Destiny 2. It is of similar design to the same kind of image used for the Beta for the original Destiny in 2014. Just as that 2014 logo used the outline of a ship, which became the Phaeton class of ships in-game, this new logo for the Destiny 2 Beta

Rockstar Games’ development of Grand Theft Auto Online has some fans worried about Red Dead Redemption 2. GTA Online has made so much money that Rockstar may employ the same content strategy for Red Dead Redemption 2, much to fans’ chagrin. Suggestions that Rockstar and Take-Two are prioritizing GTA Online over GTA 5 single player DLC are nothing new and there was previous speculation that single player DLC had been scrapped for a GTA Online map expansion. One fan argues that GTA Online is “utte

While companies can and often do inflate these numbers in order to generate positive discussion, however, it appears that Sony’s estimates might have been a little conservative. A report from Bloomberg that emerged late yesterday states that Sony’s better-than-expected preliminary earnings have caused analysts to predict it will hit its highest profit levels in almost two decades. The report also suggests a large part of that success is thanks to Sony’s games division, which has accounted for ne

As if it needed to be said at this point, there’s no doubt that Destiny fans are some of the most resourceful and creative fans out of all of the video game franchises on the market. Speaking of which, yet another Guardian has put together some fresh fan generated content, as the Redditor known as Nuclearsheep has created a House of Wolves cinematic cutscene that’s meant to work as an epilogue to the DLC for the science fiction shooter. As seen below in Nuclearsheep’s cinematic cutscene, the Red

An upcoming application for the Nintendo eShop is being hailed as a ‘game changer’, as the third application will supposedly grant Switch users the ability to stream PC games onto Nintendo’s portable platform. The developer of the application states that any device that supports DirectX 11 can utilize the application to stream PC games, and the developer states that the application will support usage on the iOS, Android, Xbox One, and most notably the Nintendo Switch. While it’s unclear what use
