Bravely Default was a remarkable game on the Nintendo 3DS, and fans are more excited about the series than ever with the release of Bravely Default 2 on the Nintendo Switch. This new game clearly takes after the original’s great visual style and tone, but tells a brand new story with new characters alongside some interesting new gameplay mechanics. These games are both spectacular, but some new players might be curious if it’s better to revisit the original game first, or jump directly into the new sequel to join fans of the series in this celebration....

Gamers are almost unanimously voting Byleth as the most boring DLC character to come to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. The poll is taking place over on ResetEra, where the question of “who was the most boring DLC character added to Smash Ultimate?” was asked by user ElectricBlanketFire. So far the poll is surprisingly in agreement that Byleth is the most boring inclusion, at 53% of close to 1500 votes. It’s not even a close call either, with every other fighter listed barely hitting 10%....

While earning Prestige can take a while, the rewards are well worth it as players gain both literal prizes and some community notoriety. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has ample opportunity to aid players in grinding out levels, players just need to know the right place to look....

Gunfight Tournaments are back for a limited time in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. The fan favorite, tournament-style game mode is officially available for free access from August 28th to September 2nd. All players will be able to enjoy the playlist, no matter what version of Modern Warfare they own. It’s been a massive week for Call of Duty fans. From enjoying new content in the Season 5 Reloaded Update, to the official in-game reveal of Black Ops Cold War, players have been overloaded with exciting events and updates within the blockbuster title....

Call of Duty: Warzone seems to be full of glitches, with players reporting new ones almost daily. While most of these tend to be negative, like instantly dying when using a heartbeat sensor, the most recent find can actually give players a huge advantage over the competition if done properly. The glitch in question allows players to have three weapons equipped at any given time, which is a big deal in Call of Duty: Warzone where encounters are varied....

In a competitive game like Call of Duty: Warzone, fairness is at the top of most player’s minds. From weapon balancing to the removal of cheats, the developers do what they can to maintain a fair battleground. Despite their efforts, one skin is continuously causing problems in the Call of Duty: Warzone community. The Roze skin has long been a problem as it is a completely black suit that can often be hard to spot....

Call of Duty: Warzone players have not been overly happy lately. Whether it’s the ongoing unlimited stim glitch in Warzone that doesn’t seem to be getting fixed properly, overpowered guns, or cheaters running rampant, the community is getting frustrated. One particular subject that has the fans in an uproar right now is the Call of Duty: Warzone integration with Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. A few weeks after the launch of Black Ops Cold War, the shooter received an update that allowed it to share progression, unlocks, and more with Warzone....

After several weeks of frustrating gameplay and the prevalence of a single weapon, Call of Duty: Warzone players have seen a new meta begin to take shape. The dreaded DMR 14’s second nerf proved to be a killing blow for the gun’s reign of terror, as it no longer dominates in every lobby of the free-to-play battle royale game. While it is still used by some, the gun’s overpowered edge is gone, and most players are trying out new weapons in response to the changes....

Spooky Season may have come and gone, but don’t tell Call of Duty: Warzone that. In fact, don’t tell the game’s players that, either. Some of the loot may be gone, but the recent in-game Halloween event - The Haunting of Verdansk - is still running strong, with its players in-love with the limited-time game modes like Zombie Royale. I can very much be considered a part of that collective mentality as well....

Call of Duty series developer Sledgehammer Games accidentally shuts down its Twitter account. The shutdown came just days after there were rumors that the studio had been removed from lead development of the 2020 Call of Duty game. Call of Duty fans were worried earlier this week when the official Sledgehammer Games Twitter account appeared to be no more. Twitter users who tried to go onto the developer’s Twitter page were told by Twitter that the Sledgehammer Games account doesn’t exist....

Using mods and the modding tools from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, a fan reinterprets the prologue scene from Mirror’s Edge into a Call of Duty deathrun map. With the delayed Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst finally arriving this year, it won’t be long until players can take control of Faith Connors once more, and indulge in some more roof-top free-running. As there’s only two months to go before the May release date for Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst, a modder has decided to get their virtual roof-top parkour fix early by rebuilding a level from the original Mirror’s Edge....

With Call of Duty: WW2 having been the best selling game of 2017, there’s no doubt that there are plenty of would-be soldiers still entering the fray to hone their skills as we speak, with many eyeing the coveted maximum rank of “Master Prestige.” While these fans are surely grinding as steadily as possible with the first-person shooter’s slew of firearms, one player managed to reach Master Prestige without firing a single shot....

The Outer Worlds is a strong addition to the first-person RPG genre, improving on many common criticisms of games like Skyrim and the Fallout series. Despite this, the genre itself still has a huge problem telling compelling character-driven stories compared to its RPG competition from BioWare and CD Projekt Red. If Avowed is going to make the genre feel like it has taken a generational step forward in time for the next generation of consoles its story needs to be as compelling as its setting....

DICE reveals that Battlefield’s companion app is losing its Battlelog branding in advance of Battlefield 1’s release, with the app soon to be called Battlefield Companion.

While the PC version of Cyberpunk 2077 has already secured its status as the definitive way to play the game by virtue of its surprisingly solid performance (at least compared to the nightmarish console ports of the game), its long-term value lies in the growth of the game’s mod scene. Cyberpunk 2077‘s collection of PC mods will undoubtedly grow to include entirely new ways to play the game, but for the moment, the small initial sampling of Cyberpunk 2077 mods currently available largely focuses on addressing some of the game’s fundamental technical issues and other design shortcomings....

For years, the Final Fantasy series has been synonymous with the very idea of the Japanese Role-Playing Game (JRPG). The Final Fantasy franchise is not only massive, but it offers such a wide array of experiences that it’s really no wonder why it’s often considered to be the best gateway into the genre. Where does that gateway lead, though? Well, that’s what we’re here to talk about today. Given that there are almost 100 Final Fantasy games (including spin-offs), it’s not always easy to simply say, “If you like Final Fantasy, you’ll like this game....

Amongst the hype of this month’s new releases, it’s time to take a look back at March 2016 as the top 10 best-selling titles of last month are revealed.
