Mirage finally gets a buff to make him more competitive. Since the release of Apex Legends, Mirage has taken a lot of flack for having weak abilities which don’t really help him or his team. Statistically, he’s one of the least used legends, with the one of the lowest win rates. That’s set to change with his new upgrade. Until now, his passive has been to cloak for five seconds and leave a decoy when he’s knocked down....

Min-maxing in any game is rough, I realize it’s often not something easily handed over, but more of a punishing ride to acquire the skills, items, or equipment needed to become the best of the best. That’s not really my aim in Genshin Impact. I’m not looking to put my friends to shame with how fast I clear mobs - I don’t mind if I struggle a little bit in timed trials....

Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed The Ezio Collection features a remastered Assassin’s Creed 2, but it appears the remastering process has been unkind to character’s faces. The release of Assassin’s Creed The Ezio Collection earlier this month might have been a little overshadowed by bigger releases in October - Battlefield 1 has been dominating game sales, while Titanfall 2 has been garnering near-universal critical acclaim - but Ubisoft’s remaster of Ezio’s adventures is a big deal for fans of the series....

In order to right a wrong, members of the Assassin’s Creed Sisterhood movement and Seateas are raising money to support women in the industry, as well as the fans of the games. After some severe allegations of sexism from high ranking figures in Ubisoft, the company has decided to start looking in a new direction in terms of equality within the company, as well as the products they put out. Many workers were forced to submit female characters such as Amunet into the sideline for games because they were told that “women don’t sell well,” along with other egregious acts....

Star Trek might have the biggest expanded universe of any science fiction property. Doctor Who might be older, but it was a show that was only popular in Great Britain for most of its existence. Star Wars might be more popular than Star Trek, but there were large gaps in the franchise’s history when no new content was being produced. Star Trek kept on receiving new iterations on both the big screen and on television, which meant that the franchise had room to grow to an unheard of extent....
