Although not everything has been revealed, Gearbox shared plans to expand on its playable Vault Hunters.

Supercell, the Tencent-owned studio behind Clash of Clans and Clash Royale, has released a new game called Brawl Stars. As to be expected, the free to play mobile fighting game features lots of loot and upgrades for players to collect and the key to unlocking this is Star Tokens.

Let’s be honest, who hasn’t cheated at a game? Cheating goes all the way back to the dawn of games themselves; as do the punishments if you get caught. However, cheating in a video game isn’t as easy as slipping a card beneath your palm or adding some extra weight to a dice. Most of them involve at least a rudimentary knowledge of coding and how to edit files. Additionally, most of them will get you banned if you get caught....

The response to Suldal Harbor by the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare community has been less than optimal, which is unusual for remastered versions of old maps.

Video game development is a long, complicated process, and not everything makes it to store shelves. It’s pretty common for games to get canceled, with some triple-a games never seeing the light of day. Such is the case with New Frontier, a canceled Capcom game with a swashbuckling sci-fi aesthetic, recently revealed by Did You Know Gaming’s Liam Robertson. The game would have apparently been “Destiny before Destiny,” according to the video, with some comparing New Frontier the canceled TV show Firefly....

Add a cast of crazy characters each with their own abilities with the silky smooth controls of a first person shooter and what do you get? No, definitely not Battleborn, but you do get Overwatch. Back in May of 2016, Blizzard gifted us with its glorious hero-based shooter, and almost two years later the player base is still hanging on very strong.
