A leak connected to Epic’s Fortnite Crew announcement has revealed that The Mandalorian is coming to the island next season. Fortnite is all about crossover events. It’s one of the many reasons it has managed to find success not only in the video game world but also in mainstream media. Right now, an entire Marvel-themed season is going on. However, that comes to an end next week. Epic will need to come up with something big to keep players interested, and the announcements regarding what it has planned have started to surface....

Just a few days ago, Fortnite received a huge update that included several much-needed quality-of-life enhancements to both Save the World and Battle Royale, but as is often the case with fresh updates, several new problems cropped up following its application. Now, Epic Games and People Can Fly have put out another, smaller patch that aims to deal with some of the pesky bugs crawling around in the game’s code....

This past week marked a big one for massive budget franchises across all media. On the movie front, Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron hit international theaters and prepared for its big domestic push. Conversely, video game juggernaut Call of Duty put its own marketing plan into motion with the release of the Black Ops 3 trailer. However, while Avengers’ arrival has been mostly met with enthusiasm, the Black Ops 3 reception was mixed to say the least....

The Game Awards 2020 featured a number of big and surprising announcements....

Game UK has confirmed that additional PlayStation 5 preorder stock will be made available today online only, though it hasn’t announced a time. Although some customers have complained of login queues, the site seems to be running properly. In a tweet, Game announced, “Stock will be online only.” Earlier, fans feared they wouldn’t be able to get their hands on a next-gen console at launch, yet the UK retailer has established a second round of preorders....

The Elder Scrolls Online features a gathering and crafting system that is no less impressive for not requiring you to taste test ingredients to figure out what they do. ESO is clearly ready to put Skyrim behind The Elder Scrolls franchise, even if Bethesda isn’t. Its crafting system is also much more expansive than what players saw in Skyrim: players can pick up alchemy, blacksmithing, clothing, enchanting, provisioning, woodworking, jewelry crafting, and antiquity, with each crafting class offering a unique benefit to players....

It’s hard to talk about Gears of War without talking about one of the coolest parts of the games: a giant space laser. The Hammer of Dawn is a staple of the franchise, appearing in almost every game and offering the player a chance to fire said laser in the most epic of fashions. While Gears 5 doesn’t give the players the same honor and instead passes it off to another supporting character, the Hammer of Dawn is still an exciting relic to behold....

Releasing back in 2019, Gears 5 has continued to offer a lot of content over the years, including fresh multiplayer characters, missions, and even a Series X update that allowed players to sub Marcus Fenix for Dave Bautista during the game’s main campaign. Its latest batch of content has now been revealed, with The Coalition discussing Operation 6, which comes loaded with a new map and three additional characters. Alongside the reveal is the announcement that Operations will be changing slightly in the coming months, with The Coalition claiming it will be shortening Gears 5’s drops from 16 to 11 weeks....

What may be Gears of War 5’s release date and cover art have leaked via Taiwan’s official ratings board. The release date on the ratings board’s profile for Gears of War 5 is a surprisingly soon September 10, though the date was quickly scrubbed from the website. Based on the leak, it stands to reason that Xbox fans should expect an official announcement from Microsoft and The Coalition prior to or during E3 2019....

Genshin Impact is a free-to-play, open-world, action RPG, gacha game released in September 2020 on PC, PS4, Android, and iOS.

Dragonspine didn’t waste time with introducing Genshin Impact players to unique concepts like sheer cold and the Frostbearing Tree. Leveling up the Frostbearing Tree can be an irritating process, especially since seven Crimson Agate are hidden away. While some will be naturally found by playing through the regions, others will baffle players as they strive to level-up the tree. The guide below is designed to help you find the seven missing Crimson Agate by breaking them down into seven separate missions....

Genshin Impact developer Mihoyo recently launched version 1.1 of its critically-acclaimed RPG. This update introduced new banners, new characters, and a swathe of new story quests, keeping regular players all over the world satisfied with up-to-date content. The thing is, a lot of players haven’t been able to finish the new chapter because the Childe boss fight is far too difficult. Childe comes into Genshin Impact’s main story shortly after the start of the Liyue arc, which is Act 2 of the overarching narrative....

Playing gacha games has become a favorite pastime of mine, given their portability and being something I can easily pick up and put down. Genshin Impact, in particular, has really impressed me since its launch late last year, and it’s managed to claim the spot as my gacha go-to. And while I’m clearly enamored with Mihoyo’s Breath of the Wild-like exploration and charming cast, I’ve had this “something is missing” feeling the entire time I’ve been playing....

To be fair, it is an interesting feature that takes you back to the first Pandemic game’s origins in 2008 right through until last year’s (2019) Pandemic Rapid Response....

Ghost of Tsushima is one of the most well-received games of the PlayStation 4 generation, and for a good reason. While the game is by no means perfect, it has all the elements necessary to be considered great. It offers compelling gameplay, beautiful graphics, and an interesting world that leaves players wanting to learn more about it. Over on the PS4 subreddit, a player named Much118 managed to capture all of these attributes in a single video....

God of War has enjoyed a hugely successful start to life since its release towards the end of April, and one member of the game’s significant fan base has found an Avengers: Infinity War Easter Egg.
