Eagle-eyed Borderlands 2 players discovered yet another Easter egg hidden within the game’s new free DLC, which was released during E3 2019. In Commander Lilith & the Fight for Sanctuary, players with an eye for detail might spot a small yellow box. This box, a box of Torgue-branded frozen waffles, won’t stand out as particularly notable — unless you happen to be a Stranger Things fan, that is. Gearbox managed to sneak a Stranger Things Easter egg into Borderlands 2....

With speculation ramping up for months over who would edge out a win at the first World Cup championship for Fortnite, Sentinels player Bugha shocked everyone by absolutely dominating all other players in the world. By the end of the sixth game in the solo-mod finals, he had almost double the points of the second-place winner. To say the result was unexpected is hardly sufficient. The ethereal mood set in the stadium as Kyle “Bugha” Giersdorf progressed through each match was unique, and not a situation we are likely to see replicated in the near future....

Season 1 of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has introduced numerous new features to the game, with the Prestige Shop being a major attraction for the players who spend lots of time in the FPS. However, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War fans have been quick to criticize the shop, as it lacks an important feature. Meant to reward players as they progress through the game’s levels, the Prestige Shop allows Call of Duty fans to spend their Prestige Keys on special calling cards and emblems....

A new update for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has been released, unveiling several changes to the multiplayer playlist. Every few weeks, Treyarch creates a new playlist to add some variety into the multiplayer environments. These rotating playlists are generally successful, and many Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War fans look forward to their arrival. While most fans would not connect brutal and violent Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War warfare with chocolate hearts, Treyarch’s new playlist comes with a unique addition....

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s multiplayer reveal has been highly anticipated by fans. Players will finally get a fulfilling and full answer as to what the next multiplayer experience will be like, along with some extra information about the weapons and killstreaks they can expect. While the initial Black Ops Cold War multiplayer reveal will likely impress some and disappoint others, there is a fraction of the community that is more interested in what multiplayer will become over time....

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is set in the 1980s, and the Zombies mode has taken advantage of this. Dark Aether anomalies are opening up across the world, from Poland to Vietnam, but where will Weaver send his rag-tag team of operators next? I’d throw Chernobyl in as a perfect place to go. If you’ve been living under a rock and don’t know what the Chernobyl Disaster was, in 1986, a nuclear reactor in Northern Ukraine exploded, and to this day, the area is radioactive....

The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare community is a wealth of feedback and good ideas. One fan has posted screenshots on the official Reddit page suggesting a genius new perk that would add a 6th attachment slot to a gun. This new perk, titled ‘6th Sense,’ would be added to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and would give fans the option to trade the third perk slot for a gun attachment slot....

Likely every first-person shooter fan from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare to Halo knows the infamy that is “tea bagging.” Fans often see it as a sign of disrespecting the opponent, others enjoy the “meme” factor of the entire process, while some simply avoid mentioning it. Modern Warfare is only one of many FPS games that players have brought the action to. While normally “tea bagging” is reserved as a social action among fans of FPS titles, the developers at Infinity Ward have implemented a unique achievement into Modern Warfare....

For all of the popularity that Call of Duty: Warzone has earned (and there’s no denying that Warzone is incredibly popular), most agree that the battle royale shooter is not perfect. The last twelve days have given millions of players time to explore its unique intricacies, and while most have been heaping praise on its distinct tweaks to the typical battle royale experience, many have found it strange that the game is missing a standard feature of the genre....

The reboot of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare has been a hit with the majority of its players and this is partly because of its steady stream of content. Recently, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare had a significant 30GB update and it seems that the game is now introducing some mysterious clues to what the future may hold. There is plenty of speculation about the clue being connected to Black Ops but there are also some contrasting theories that could also be a logical step for the game....

Despite Call of Duty: Warzone being out for several months now, new discoveries are constantly being made within the game. Call of Duty: Warzone players are always finding a way to pull off unique plays, and the newest trick will allow fans to do just that with the game’s often-ignored Recon Drones. Back in June, Warzone players discovered C4 could be attached to drones, leading to the creation of some incredibly dangerous flying explosives....

Listening to fan feedback is key to keeping your game fresh and appealing to new and old players months after release. Sledgehammer Games realizes this, and has revealed a complete overhaul of the Divisions system in Call of Duty: WW2 as a result of repeated suggestions from the community and feedback given from fans. Divisions in Call of Duty: WW2 currently give extra attachments to players, like Incendiary Shells on shotguns for players who use the Expeditionary division, and suppressors on weapons for players who use the Airborne division....

Activision Blizzard is currently under investigation following accusations of harassment, discrimination, and fostering a hostile work environment. You can read more about the investigation here. Call of Duty players are all-too-familiar wiht the power of tactical nukes. As the name implies, that item allows players to essentially blow up the map and kill any enemies caught in the weapon’s considerable blast radius. Previously, that weapon was limited to Call of Duty‘s traditional multiplayer modes, which allow players to respawn after being nuked....

It’s hard to believe, but the Xbox Series X releases tomorrow, officially ushering in the next generation of gaming. The PS5 won’t be far behind at that point, releasing on November 12th, at which point all fans will have had a chance to experience this new frontier. Among the many titles releasing on these consoles at launch, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is one of the more high profile ones that fans are excited about....

Xaviant Games announces a closed beta for The Culling, which aims to recreate the last man standing tournaments from Battle Royale and The Hunger Games. Last Week, Atlanta-based developer Xaviant Games stepped forth from the shadows to announce The Culling, an ambitious title which aims to recreate the fatal tournament vibe that movies like Battle Royale and The Hunger Games brought to popularity. The initial trailer for The Culling showed plenty of potential, and showed off what looked to be a spacious island map with plenty of room for ambushes....

Updated 10/11/2016 Battlefield 1 has quickly become one of the most anticipated games of the year, and we have compiled everything you need to know about the game in one place. EA and DICE went all out with the Battlefield 1 reveal, showing off the game’s impressive visuals, confirming its World War I setting, and also offering some info about its various game modes. Some may have found the Battlefield 1 reveal a tad overwhelming, but the flow of information didn’t end there....

One of the more disappointing aspects of the move to digital distribution is the loss of all the great box art that helped sell games in past generations. Back when the internet was in its infancy and all we had to go on were gaming magazines for reviews, box art could sometimes make or break a purchase. Sure, that sometimes meant terrible purchasing mistakes like Friday the 13th for the NES, but even if the games were awful, we still had sweet looking boxes and cartridges to add to our collections....

There is nothing to fear but fear itself, and maybe ghosts and supernatural baddies, too, because those irrational beings defy logic and realism. That’s why they’re a common sight in most horror films and are usually associated with that genre of movies. However, threats that do follow reality or the laws of science (to a certain degree) are also present and tend to be more menacing. Because if anything, they represent an experience closer to reality compared to ghosts, meaning they could happen to just about anyone....

Many are struggling in the world right now, and social distancing can be tough. For many, video games serve as an engrossing escape or distraction from some of the grim details seen on the news or all around them. Though there’s a wealth of world-spanning RPGs and compelling single player adventures to dump tons of hours into, sometimes people just want to hang out with their friends. Thankfully there’s also plenty of games for folks who want to play a fun cooperative adventure or jump into a competitive match with....

There’s nothing quite like a good role-playing game - or RPG - to get you invested in a long story with memorable characters. The very best let you approach problems and scenarios however you like, whether that’s by building up your combat skills or just talking your way out of trouble. The PlayStation 4 might not be the newest console on the market now, and is less shiny than the PlayStation 5, but that just means it has a truly enormous library of great games to call on, including a host of great RPGs for you to check out....
