Square Enix has just unveiled the new Final Fantasy 14 expansion called Endwalker that is set to release in the Fall of 2021. While usually this kind of news would be announced at a Fan Festival Show with plenty of players in attendance, naturally due to the pandemic, the announcement came as a live show announcement instead. There was plenty of new content teased, as well as promises of more reveals to come later in the year....

The fan-favorite Moogle Treasure Trove event is returning to Final Fantasy 14 , but this time it’s called the Moogle Treasure Festival to celebrate this year’s Fan Festival that is being held this weekend, May 15-16, 2021. As an extra special treat, some really special rewards have been added to the event line-up, including some items based on previous design contests. What’s more, players will earn a lot more tomes per run than they usually would, allowing you to purchase even more prizes than ever before....

Alisaie and Alphinaud are twin sibling NPCs from Final Fantasy XIV. They have been around since the beginning of A Realm Reborn. However, it wasn’t until the end of Heavensward when Alisaie really joined in with the rest of the Scions. Despite looking quite similar, the siblings are very different in personality and skills. Like siblings, they also poke fun at each other. They are both very entertaining and beloved characters of the Final Fantasy XIV fandom....

Fortnite has seen its fair share of Marvel characters throughout its run, and the Devourer of Worlds, Galactus, will be making his appearance tomorrow. A live event featuring the character will serve as the finale to the Nexus War Event. Epic Games first released the timetable of the event on November 20th. That date now approaches: Galactus will be coming to the Fortnite Island tomorrow, December 1st at 4 PM EST....

Fortnite has been treating players with live events of late and recently launched a secret concert with Diplo and Jordan Fisher in the new Party Royale mode. The secret concert was missed by many, but this event may well draw more attention to the new game mode in the free-to-play title. Some players had thought that the peaceful game mode that disables weapons and building and encourages socializing would focus on events and early signs indicate that this is the case....

Fortnite Battle Royale’s frequent addition of new content has been stepped up a notch recently, adding not just new weapons but new methods of transportation like the Jetpack. The latest method of transport - a Shopping Cart - is proving popular with players, but brings with it a peculiar game-breaking bug. Shopping Carts were added to the game as a part of Fortnite’s v4.3 update, which also brings Mushrooms, a consumable which grants players +5 to their shield....

With the second season of Fortnite coming to an end soon, Epic Games has recently revealed the game’s season 3 Battle Pass. But that’s not the only new thing coming to the popular co-op sandbox survival game. The latest update (v.3.0.0) provides ways for gamers “to both be in the heat of battle and still craft that clutch set of stairs!” “Turbo Building” is one of these new features, which is toggled in the game options....

Fortnite is known for capping off its in-game seasons with elaborate events that permanently alter the battle royale map. This season has a couple of things going on, like a mysterious vault opening in Loot Lake, but what Fortnite fans are focused on today is the imminent eruption of the volcano in the northeast section of the map. A timer has appeared in Fortnite, signaling that the Fortnite volcano event is getting ready to kick off....

After teasing a possible return of its flagship shows X-Play and Attack of the Show, the rebooting G4 network has confirmed that X-Play host and video game critic Adam Sessler will be returning to the network. The end of G4 began in 2012, when both Attack of the Show and X-Play were cancelled, partially as a result of the boom of online games coverage and live-streamed content. The network was influential in giving video game criticism and journalism validity and inspiring hundreds of people to work in the industry or create their own YouTube or Twitch channels....

The Game Rant staff counts down its choices for the 10 best games of 2016, an especially hard task given how great the year was for gaming of all types. While 2016 will likely be remembered for completely different reasons than the success of its entertainment, it’s hard to deny this wasn’t a good year for video games. From sequels to reboots to new IPs, there was a lot to enjoy and a lot to talk about, which makes picking 10 favorites all the more difficult....

The PS5 and Xbox Series X both released pre-orders recently. Neither of them went smoothly, despite the efforts of players, the developer companies, or retailers. The question of which next gen console should players get is now replaced with which one they will be able to get at all in the near future. The debacle began with the PS5 pre-orders, which were not announced well. The issue was then compounded by Walmart announcing it would let players pre-order ahead of the announced date....

Paper Mario: The Origami King is the perfect game just to kick back and get lost in a colorful and cute world. From the enemies designed after office supplies to the vibrant landscapes, Paper Mario makes it hard for you not to smile while stomping a few goombas. The latest entry in the Mario franchise is fantastic, but it’s by no means perfect. While most bugs won’t affect gameplay dramatically, players have discovered a few game-breaking ones....

Mona has to be one of my personal favourite characters in Genshin Impact. Mondstadt’s famous astrologer is a powerful ranged DPS character, works great to create Hydro elemental reactions, and has a running talent that makes her one of the most mobile characters in the game, especially if you’ve been running from place to place to farm old treasure chests in the wild. But if you want to make the most of Mona, then you need to equip her with a powerful weapon, complementary artifacts, and play her the right way....

Before Genshin Impact happened, Paimon was some sort of a demon or evil spirit in most religious literature. However, the developers of Genshin Impact, miHoYo, had a different idea for that sort of malevolent being. They decided to turn what was once a feared figure into the current poster-girl of kawaii-ness in video games. The result is that Paimon quickly stole the show. That’s a good thing because if anything, Paimon can soften the blow of the said RPG’s brutal gacha system....

While Game of Thrones may be over as a TV series (not that that’s stopped fans from demanding a redo of Season 8), fans of the source material are still looking forward to the next novel in George R.R. Martin’s Song of Ice and Fire series, The Winds of Winter. They’ve been waiting quite a while for this one, in fact, but luckily Martin was able to provide them with a status update this week, going so far as to hint when the book might finally be finished....

Fans of Sucker Punch’s Ghost of Tsushima would know of Jin Sakai’s journey in his battle against the Mongol invasion of Tsushima Island. Moreover, Jin can use his training as a samurai or his Ghost skills to diversify his approach in his crusade. In turn, players of the open-world stealth-action game will never have the same playthrough. Additionally, players got treated to an immersive world, a compelling narrative, and highly-diversified gameplay....

During last week’s E3 2017 festivities, it was revealed that Santa Monica Studio’s forthcoming God of War game for the PlayStation 4 will be departing from Quick Time Events (QTEs) and the traditional camera cuts from previous entries in the series that pull back from Kratos to reveal a stage’s full environment surrounding him. With many fans wondering why the developer has decided to do away with such classic features, Santa Monica Studio’s creative director Cory Barlog has decided to explain why the forthcoming title won’t include these familiar cinematic camera cuts from the franchise....
