The easiest way to keep players playing is to add new content. For character-based online multiplayer shooters, that means either adding new maps, new game modes, new weapons, or new characters. Since Apex Legends is strictly a battle royale game, that sort of limits the number of new game modes that can be added, but Respawn Entertainment has been doing a bang-up job in those other three categories. Thanks to well-known Apex Legends dataminer @Biast12, we now know that Respawn plans to continue refreshing the game by adding a brand new Legend for the next seasons....

The latest season of Apex Legends is quickly coming to a close, though it has certainly left a positive impression on fans thanks in large part to the latest character joining the roster. Loba, a cat burglar inspired by Catwoman, introduced a number of interesting abilities such as her ultimate which allows teammates to grab gear in one central location. With season 6 on the way, it appears another major Titanfall 2 character is coming back to Apex Legends....

Apple says that a bug which causes some iPhone 14 Pro handsets to display strange horizontal lines during the boot up sequence isn’t a hardware bug and can be fixed with software, according to a new report. The issue, which has been reported by various people on social media, causes some of Apple’s iPhones to display yellow or green horizontal lines on their screen - but only when they are in the process of being powered on....

It is not uncommon to want to venture to another server in Ark: Survival Evolved to see what it has to offer. Your survivor can only exist on one server at a time, which means you have to transfer over their data. It can be confusing the first time you try to do this, but it is easier to accomplish than you may think. However, make sure you keep tabs on which server your survivor is in, so they are not lost to you forever....

With Army of Darkness, the concluding (at the time!) installment in what became known as the Evil Dead trilogy, Sam Raimi completed a series that swerved from nasty yet funny horror into full-blown slapstick comedy – with mixed results. The first Evil Dead – an instant cult classic upon its arrival in 1981 – was a lunatic mix of outright horror, black comedy and sight gags, a movie that gave you the creeps and made you laugh out loud at the same time while also introducing Raimi’s energetic, wildly creative visual style....

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey was a hit when it came out and it seems to have laid down the groundwork for what will be implemented in the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Many enjoyed being able to pick between a male and female character and form their relationships accordingly as they progressed through the game and Valhalla seems to be following a similar choice model. Yet, it seems that this choice may be the result of pushback from employees at Ubisoft....

When you first begin playing Assassin’s Creed Valhalla you have a choice to play as either a male Eivor, female Eivor, or both. The story stays the same no matter who you choose, but female Eivor is by far a favorite among players. Her persona is powerful as she cuts down her enemies and fights for what is right throughout the story. Many cosplayers have decided to represent this character in their own way, and it almost makes you wish that the Vikings were alive today....

For players wanting to experience everything Assassin’s Creed Valhalla has to offer, here is a guide on how to unlock the secret ending for the game. Ubisoft Montreal has gone above and beyond for its latest entry into the Assassin’s Creed series. Assassin’s Creed Valhalla has even made some major improvements from Assasin’s Creed Odyssey. One of the many reasons for the game’s success is the amount of hidden content for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla....

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is the next entry in the long-running franchise, and for fans both old and new, it has checked all the right boxes so far. The inclusion of Odyssey’s RPG mechanics and classic features from the older games may be able to bridge the divide between old vs. new fans in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, but unfortunately, there’s been a problem brewing behind the franchise for some time now....

According to a recent NPD report, video game spending hit a high point through June, with sales reaching $1.2 billion. That brings the year’s total so far for hardware, software, and accessories to $6.6 billion, the highest it’s been in 10 years. With COVID-19 still a hot topic on people’s minds, video games have consistently been a source of entertainment, so it’s no wonder they’re selling well. In addition, the last few months have seen high numbers coming from the year’s most anticipated games like Animal Crossing: New Horizons and The Last of Us Part II....

I kind of already covered this when I wrote my piece on Final Fantasy VII comics, but I’ll say it again. Final Fantasy VII is my favorite game in the series, which doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the best game of all time. Make sense? What I mean is it has flaws. While I would still give it a five out of five stars on my review scale, or a ten out of ten, or a hundred out of hundred, or whatever scale you prefer....

Every universe has its own sense of, well, common sense. In our universe, common sense and logic are ironically rare. Do you ever just listen to someone talk or watch them do something and think, “wow, there is no hope for humanity, how can anyone possibly reason with that?” In the Marvel universe, things are no different. Writers, producers, and Stan Lee himself can often have a twisted sense of what makes sense....

Becoming the highest-grossing animated movie of all time upon its release, Disney’s Frozen swept up the hearts of viewers everywhere. With two spunky princesses, a lovable snowman, a goofy reindeer and a charming outdoorsman, there’s always been a lot to love about this film. It actually took Disney over 70 years to adapt Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow Queen, but we’re sure glad it became reality in 2013. Frozen took over pop culture and scored itself a slew of Academy Awards and Grammys....

After its seismic collapse this May, 38 Studios’ postmortem unraveling continues to paint a clearer picture of Project Copernicus. The MMO was slated for a release after a hypothetical Kingdoms of Amalur 2, but it became a money pit for 38 founder Curt Schilling and is now considered, like the company itself, defunct. Every indication regarding Project Copernicus’ structure has been that it would take on the form of a subscription-based MMO, a la its role model World of Warcraft....

Instagram is more than just a place for Kim K selfies and food porn. It’s also a place where talented photographers from all over the world share their creativity. Instagram actually doubles as their portfolio, a showcase of professional-quality photos that anyone is allowed to view at no cost. It’s inspiring. It’s extraordinary. It’s beautiful. And sometimes it’s also adorable. We’ve collated some of our favourite photographic artists from the social network for you to enjoy....

When adapting a book into other media, it doesn’t always translate well and you’ll often hear “the book was better.” However, there are times when the adaptation does the book justice or becomes its own awesome piece of work. Whether films, TV shows, or games, oftentimes the new adaptation is loosely based on the book or is not faithful to the original telling. For example, in Netflix’s The Witcher series, there were many changes made from the books....

Assuming one actually manages to find them on the Nintendo eShop, the Switch is home to a small but impressive collection of high fantasy games, many of which are unsurprisingly RPGs. People play games for countless reasons, but few are as enticing as the promise of exploring unique worlds that happen to be in desperate need of a hero. It is the ultimate escapist fantasy. Even if a definition that satisfies everyone does not exist, high fantasy generally refers to stories that take place in alternate worlds that have little to do with reality....

There’s nothing like a good party game with friends, and that includes video games in the party genre. These games come in a variety of different shapes and sizes, but all party games have the same goal in mind: players enjoying one-off competitions with others. The plethora of games in this genre is hard to keep track of. There have been major titles that always have players excited to play whenever a new title comes out, and there are also underrated one-and-done games that get people’s attention....

When the Star Wars sequels were announced, many fans who were excited to see the Sith and Jedi return to the big screen were disappointed to learn that Disney was declaring the Expanded Universe non-canon. This was a particular blow to fans of the sequel novels but also the many video game adaptations made that had expanded upon the extensive history of the Star Wars universe. Now, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 2 has a chance to bring back parts of the EU....

Nuclockes are a great way to keep older Pokemon games new and exciting. The ruleset includes, but is not limited to, only catching the first Pokemon in each new area, nicknaming all caught Pokemon, and releasing them or boxing them once they faint. You can Nuzlocke pretty much any Pokemon game - even rom hacks - but many people like to return to old favourites they remember well and have a new go at them, so this guide will give some much-needed tips for how to beat Pokemon Platinum under the tough Nuzlocke conditions....
