Apex Legends has finally landed on Nintendo Switch, and it has arrived to a somewhat mixed reception. Hey, we all knew that Apex Legends wasn’t going to look as shiny or run as smoothly on a handheld system, but no one knew the issues would be quite this pervasive. Nevertheless, if you’re jumping into the battle royale for the first time, or you’re looking for a portable way to play, then you need look no further....

Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin is chock full of monsters, and one of the main features of the game is finding their eggs and hatching them. These then become monsties through the power of Kinship and fight alongside you as loyal pets. These beasts look slightly nastier than your average Pokemon or Digimon, but they are just as (if not more) useful in a fight. With a ton of monsties to choose from and three categories to take into account, there’s a lot to think about....

Bethesda has fixed an issue that prevented the recently re-released Doom titles from being able to be purchased on Xbox One. It’s a great time to be a Doom fan. QuakeCon 2019 saw the release of new teasers and trailers for the upcoming 2016 Doom sequel, Doom Eternal, which promises more demon-slaying mayhem. But also announced at QuakeCon were the re-release of the classic Doom trilogy, including Doom, Doom II, and Doom 3....

Dragon Age games always having a “blond chantry boy” romance option has long been an inside joke among BioWare fans. But really, for all that you could say about the fantasy series, you can hardly call it formulaic. For starters, the blond chantry boys don’t actually have a thing in common - Alistair isn’t even blond, and Anders’ relationship with the chantry is hardly comparable to Cullen’s. That aside, Dragon Age is constantly shaking up how it does romances....

PC gaming is much less complex than it once was, as developers have come to realize that clear, concise system requirements remove a technical barrier that might limit their overall audience. However, not every game will run on every PC, for various different reasons — and now Blizzard has detailed a far-reaching change to its hardware support that affects two versions of Windows that are still relatively popular. This week, Blizzard reiterated its plans to drop support for Windows XP and Windows Vista from October 2017....

Much of America tuned into Super Bowl 55 on Sunday to watch the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeat the Kansas City Chiefs 31-9, netting Tom Brady his seventh Super Bowl ring. However, just as many people likely watched the game for its commercials, including a Reddit ad inspired by the recent events surrounding GameStop. Today, developer Cyanide Studio and publisher Nacon released a new trailer for Blood Bowl 3 to capitalize on the commercial craze....

Over the next couple weeks, Gearbox Software will release trailers for each of the new Vault Hunters coming to Borderlands 3 this fall.

This new trailer showcases Moze and her BFF the Iron Bear mech, as well as a little bit of backstory for this new Vault Hunter that players will get to play as next month....

As far as Breath of the Wild is concerned, weather is not your friend. Link’s mobility is greatly hindered by Hyrule’s weather, with rain outright preventing players from climbing (arguably BotW’s single defining feature). Thunderstorms are even more dangerous since they target metal, forcing Link to unequip most mid to high level gear. Even armor suffers under this penalty, making thunder always a threat in Breath of the Wild. While there’s no getting around the perils of rains, BotW does feature a set of armor to help during thunderstorms....

Players have been flooding back into Call of Duty: Warzone lately as the game has just entered its fifth season. Players are eager to check out the changes made to the battle royale’s map including new improvements to some popular locations or even hitch a ride on the newly added train.

This week, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is releasing a mini-update that includes a new playlist in multiplayer, Party Mode mosh pit. Smaller updates have been frequent within each new season of the title, often utilized to add new game modes, buff or nerf certain weapons, and add new purchasable items for players to collect in the Store. Unlike the larger season updates, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare only requires a quick restart of the game for this week’s mini-update to install....

The latest update for Call of Duty: Warzone should be rolling out to all platforms now, and it adds some weekend bonuses along with the brand new Juggernaut Royale Trios game mode. Juggernaut Royale was expected to come to Warzone as part of the mid-season update, but was missing for one reason or another....

The infinite stim glitch in Call of Duty Warzone has been a thorn in Raven Software’s side for a while now. The developer has tried to fix the glitch four different times now, but players have always managed to find a work around. However, it looks like Raven has now taken an alternate approach which just might kill the glitch once and for all. The infinite stim glitch allows players to survive outside the circle by using the stim tool constantly to avoid death via the gas....

In the never-ending cycle of Call of Duty: Warzone patches and bugs, a new update has fixed one feature while breaking another.

Dual revolvers are totally busted in Warzone, as this new video proves. There are plenty of ways to kill fools in Call of Duty: Warzone, but the best way to do it might be using akimbo Snakeshot .357 revolvers. They’re a secondary weapon, but they hit hard enough to down an opponent in a single salvo. Reddit user ssieK uses them to great effect in this Warzone victory. During the final circle as the gas is closing in, ssieK grabs a pair of ....

A video uploaded to Reddit shows Call of Duty: Modern Warfare players skipping the pre-game countdown and rushing to objectives or kills. While normally the timer locks movement, a glitch is allowing players to bypass this restriction and gain an unfair advantage over the enemy team. Some Reddit users in the thread are claiming that this glitch has been part of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare since the game’s launch. Although the bug is rarely seen, it has provided an advantage to some players allowing them the opportunity to claim flags early or rack up starting kills....

Shortly after Red Mile Entertainment was acquired in 2008, the in-development Sin City game was cancelled – but footage of the title has leaked today, and it looks incredible. The tragic tale of the Sin City game began when Frank Miller’s comic book serial of the same name was adapted for the silver screen in 2005. Off the heels of sweeping acclaim, it seemed a video game adaptation was the natural next step....
