While Borderlands 3 players have been working their way through Krieg’s warped mind in the final season pass expansion for the game, one fan has stumbled upon a clear nod to a previous Borderlands game. The game in question is none other than Tales from the Borderlands, with the Borderlands 3 easter egg paying homage to one of its more memorable moments. While Randy Pitchford has already jumped ahead of the Krieg expansion and started talking about a new Borderlands 3 game mode, fans are still looking for everything there is to find inside the psycho’s head....

The 3DS was a remarkable console for JRPGs, but two series in particular were given a huge amount of life on this portable console. The first is Fire Emblem, a long-running series that had already proven successful, but hit huge international fame with Fire Emblem Awakening before some successful future entries on both the 3DS and recent Nintendo Switch. The other series that the 3DS is probably most notable for is Bravely Default, which brought back the classic Final Fantasy format with beautiful visual styles and a brilliantly deep combat system....

It’s been a long and winding road for Destiny 2, with the shooter facing its fair share of ups and downs since it launched. Luckily, the launch of the Beyond Light expansion seems to be going relatively smoothly, and with a new update on Bungie’s blog, it appears that fans have quite a bit to look forward to in the coming months. One of the most exciting, however, is the armor transmog system....

On December 3, World of Warcraft’s newest companion, Argi, hits the Battle.net store. Even better, for the month of December Blizzard will donate the entire “adoption fee” for every Argi sold to the American Red Cross to assist in their battle against Ebola. Make a new virtual friend and help people in need? That’s a win-win. Argi herself looks kind of like a goat crossed with the genie from Aladdin, and Blizzard’s holiday-themed write-up emphasizes her cute, playful nature....

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Beta has entered cross-play, bringing Early Access PC and Xbox One fans into the action that so far has been exclusive to the PS4 audience. With the additional community added in, the developers are unveiling two new modes along with new Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War maps. Still, new content is not the only important feature of the beta. With the patch comes a whole set of gameplay updates, including a fix for the infamous slide exploit along with several other minor problems....

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s multiplayer reveal is right around the corner, with the franchise’s official Twitter feed maintaining an active countdown. Every day a new Tweet has appeared revolving around the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War multiplayer reveal, but the tweets themselves hold some interesting information. The most recent Call of Duty tweet held a countdown video that confirmed a fan-favorite kill-streak was being added to the game....

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, the latest in the legendary FPS series, has finally arrived. The new title was joint-developed by Treyarch and Raven Software, and brings players back to the Cold War setting of the previous Black Ops games. As with most Call of Duty games, a lot of interest in the new title is focused on its multiplayer. While there aren’t many major innovations over previous entries in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, there are some interesting changes....

Seemingly in the blink of an eye, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered is on the way. The PlayStation store confirmed the release date for March 31, 2020, apparently as an accidental and early posting. But with the game being here in just a day, other things have leaked as well, including the Trophy/Achievement list. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered will be a campaign only, as the name implies, so no multiplayer and no Spec-Ops....

Modern Warfare and Warzone’s Season 6 brings in two extremely powerful new weapons that are currently shaking up the meta, but as Modern Warfare and Warzone continue, constant balancing changes and updates also slowly shift popular consensus towards different guns. In general, balance changes have flattened the differences between the most powerful and the weakest weapons, meaning that practically any gun can be used to some effect in multiplayer. For those looking to take home wins in Warzone though, even a slight edge given by a strong gun can make the difference....

There are plenty of reasons for Call of Duty: Warzone and/or Call of Duty: Modern Warfare players to be excited for the next few months. New content always seems to be on the horizon, with Season 5 set to arrive in only a couple of weeks, and there is still the new Call of Duty title launching by the end of the year. However, it’s no secret that both games have been plagued with cheaters and developer Infinity Ward has already permanently banned tens of thousands of them in the past....

So far, Call of Duty: WW2 is endearing itself to fans of the Call of Duty franchise and to fans of shooters in general. The game’s inaugural trailer is the most liked trailer in Call of Duty history, while gamers have been generally impressed with what developer Sledgehammer Games has been sharing about the project so far. Now, the developer has given another update on the title, confirming that all loot box rewards are cosmetic in nature....

During the video game publisher Activision’s latest quarterly financial earnings conference call, the company’s CEO Eric Hirshberg made sure to stress the importance and overall strength of the Call of Duty brand, and went so far as to say that Call of Duty: WW2 is the “right game” at the “right time.” Building on its confidence for the forthcoming title, the publisher, along with the developers at Sledgehammer Games, have just recently unveiled the contents of the first-person shooter’s rather sizeable special edition known as the Valor Collection....

The Call of Duty community is unhappy with the stale of crossplay in Warzone and Modern Warfare. While the feature has been much asked for in various games over the past few years, Xbox One players, in particular, are disappointed about the lack of options, specifically being unable to turn crossplay off. Many fans rejoiced when Call of Duty: Warzone was confirmed to have crossplay and cross-progression, just like Modern Warfare....

Infinity Ward has released the big new Season 6 update for Call of Duty: Warzone, bringing with it a number of important changes to the battle royale. Most of the Warzone Season 6 changes were detailed in the patch notes, but like always, Infinity Ward also made some changes that it left for fans to discover on their own. Here are all the secret changes in Call of Duty: Warzone Season 6....

A Candy Crush television show is in the works at Lionsgate, with the TV adaptation being a game show that sees players go through obstacle courses in order to collect pieces of candy. Once boasting 500 million installs and 93 million daily active users, King’s Candy Crush Saga used to be the biggest mobile game around. But now, Pokemon GO is now the biggest mobile game, while Bethesda’s mobile spin-off Fallout Shelter is making more money than Candy Crush....

Rarely in video games does the main hero save the world on their own. Usually, they have some allies to assist them, from a squad they travel with to a person in their ear giving them intel. However, there are occasions where human teammates aren’t good enough, and the protagonist needs an animal by their side. This is particularly common these days when modern-day graphics can make any animal look like its real-world counterpart....

Get those pots stirring, because Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends and the Secret Fairy has been leaked on the Australian Ratings Board. The unannounced sequel has been rated PG for mild fantasy themes and violence. There has been no word from the series’ publisher Koei Tecmo or the developer GUST on the development of this game. Currently, GUST is likely putting in the finishing touches on their turn-based RPG adaptation of the Fairy Tail series....

Atlanta FaZe’s Chris “Simp” Lehr went off during his first map of the weekend by dropping a 49-bomb out the gates against the London Royal Ravens. Those 49 kills were good enough for a Hardpoint Call of Duty League record, topping the previous 45 kill record put up by Chicago Huntsmen’s Seth “Scump” Abner at an earlier event. What’s most impressive about the kill record is how crisp Simp looked to kick off the weekend despite not playing since March 8th when the FaZe lost to Minnesota during the semi-finals of the Los Angeles weekend....

Warning: contains Barbarians spoilers The story told by Netflix’s Barbarians – the Germanic tribes rising up to take a sizeable chunk out of the invading Roman Empire in the Battle of Teutoburg Forest, also known as the Varian Disaster – is a key historical event that took place in 9 CE. The battle’s events are related in several historical sources, among them ‘Germania’ by Roman historian Tacitus. The tribes’ victory dealt Rome a heavy blow which is now seen as a turning point in the history of the Roman Empire, which lost up to 20,000 soldiers over the three-to-four-day battle, effectively halting its advance across what is now mainland Europe....

Batman ‘89 is a comic that hits a certain section of bat-fandom so squarely where they live it’s almost impossible to believe it even exists. The series, part of a line of DC Comics that serve as sequels to beloved live action superhero movie and TV shows, is a direct sequel to Tim Burton’s two Batman movies, and delivers versions of famous Gotham City residents who we never got to see realized onscreen in that director’s world, including Barbara Gordon, a reimagined Robin, and others....
