Best Buy isn’t willing to wait for Black Friday to arrive on a regular schedule, it seems. Today the retailer announced plans for Black Friday in October, a special sales event more than a month ahead of the traditional Black Friday preceding the United States Thanksgiving holiday. Considering 2020 so far, many shoppers may not have even been thinking about Black Friday, let alone Thanksgiving or Christmas, but Best Buy’s October Black Friday will be there for those who are....

People weren’t sure where the Assassin’s Creed series fit in the gaming world, but it’s becoming a lot about exploration.

Assassin’s Creed’s developers are continually pushing the envelope in open world design. The series spans at least twenty-two games, making it one of the longest franchises in history....

Blizzard has announced that its digital BlizzCon replacement event will run from February 19–20, 2021. “While circumstances are keeping us from gathering in person this year, we’re putting together a little something early next year to channel the spirit of BlizzCon into the form of an online show,” reads a post on the BlizzCon website. “We still have a lot of planning to do, and it’ll be some time before we’re ready to share more details—but we wanted to provide a heads-up on how you can be a part of the online fun....

A few months back, Universal Pictures released a trailer and launch date for Nobody, a brand new action film starring Better Call Saul’s Bob Odenkirk as a family man with a shady past. While release dates have been in flux for most films for some time now, Universal has actually taken the unusual step of moving the film’s release date up, and Nobody will now open in early April. Those who saw the trailer will remember that Nobody is planning to be a stylish action flick that takes quite a lot of inspiration from Keanu Reeves’ John Wick....

No, not Bowser the giant reptile monarch who just can’t get enough of manhandling a certain Italian plumber. We’re talking about Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser, whose name just happens to be the same as a famous video game character. Stuff like this happens all the time in this industry. In a show of capitalistic sportsmanship, Bowser extended a hearty congratulations to rival Xbox on Twitter earlier today writing, “Congratulations to @Xbox @XboxP3 on the launch of Xbox Series X | S today....

The king of the platform-fighting genre may be Super Smash Bros., but Ubisoft’s cartoony brawler Brawlhalla has been carving a large niche for itself, not just by being free-to-play but by being available on multiple platforms as well. And now fans have even more ways to play the game, because it’s out now on mobile devices. After announcing last year that the game would come to iOS and Android in 2020, Ubisoft confirmed a mobile release date of August 6 for Brawhalla at last month’s Ubisoft Forward....

Eyes of Tomorrow, the Deep Stone Crypt raid exotic rocket launcher is one of the best weapons added in Destiny 2 Beyond Light. The weapon drops with the raid completion after the Taniks boss encounter. It’s a perfect mix of Warclif Coil and Truth having tracking projectiles that lock on up to six targets at once. Last month, Bungie released a new update that somehow shadow-nerfed the Eyes of Tomorrow damage against mini-bosses and raid bosses as well....

Bungie is committed to the long-term growth of Destiny 2, but it looks like the studio is also gearing up to start work on a new project.

We are now well into Season 3 of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, which has come loaded with new playlists, maps, and customization options for weapons and more. One of those customization options in question is gun camos, and there is one in particular that will take quite a bit of work to get but may be worth it nonetheless. The Obsidian Camo in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will require players to complete quite a few tasks before they have access to it, as Obsidian is one of the completionist camo options available in Modern Warfare....

If anybody gets downed, you assess whether they can be revived safely or if they have to be sacrificed for the overall health of the team. But Reddit user AwkwardGamer1994 is a “no man left behind” kind of Warzone player....
