Fortnite has new challenges for Season 2 Week 6. The second set of Meowscles’ Mischief challenges are live and ready for fans to dive in. This week’s Fortnite challenges include one that makes players dance in three locations on the map. Meowscles Challenges The secret agent this time around is Meowscles, the overly muscled cat man. The challenges are coming along with the new 12.21 update from the 25th. His challenges this week are:...

Much like the reoccurring Clay Pigeon Shooter challenge from last week, one Fortnite season 6 week 9 challenge requires players to find a new minigame-like addition on the map and get a certain score. With the aforementioned Clay Pigeon Shooters, the required score was 3, but with this week’s Carnival Clown Board challenge requires a score of 10. However, it is much more difficult to find these locations than it is to get the required score....

Epic Games multiplayer shooter Fortnite has already redecorated its map once today. The Season 7 content update introduced the frozen biome, which gave the map a suitably chilly makeover just in time for winter. But that’s not all; at The Game Awards 2018, Epic revealed yet another new addition to the game’s map. In a surprise presentation at The Game Awards, Epic unveiled a new Fortnite area called The Block. The Block replaces the Risky Reels movie theatre, flattening it and putting a grey concrete surface over the top....

There’s no doubt that Fortnite Battle Royale has become something of a phenomenon since its launch in early access last year, especially when one considers the fact that Good Morning America recently ran a segment on the popular multiplayer sandbox survival title. With the game’s player base having become so large, though, it’s an unfortunate truth to state that there are going to be bad apples in the bunch, as some have been exploiting Battle Royale’s Solo mode by teaming up against individuals....

Fortnite Season 3 has come with all manner of weapons, be they old favorites that have been released from the vault or brand new ones, such as the FireJar Grenade, which has been making quite a splash. With Season 3 still in its early days, though, it’s safe to assume that we may see more weapons be included in the future at some point. In fact, one leaker, named HYPEX, believes they’ve already found one in Fortnite’s files, and it sounds like an absolute doozy of a weapon....

For the past week, all that many Fortnite players could think about was the eagerly anticipated rocket launch event, and when it finally took place on Saturday, many players took a break from killing each other to watch it all go down. However, it appears that some, rather than watching the launch, took the event as an opportunity to improve their stats, which has even resulted in one player breaking the record for highest number of kills in a solo match in a rather ridiculous fashion....

Fortnite continues to introduce new characters from across different universes into the game as part of its bounty hunter-focused fifth season. Continuing its trend of the unexpected, Fortnite looks to be adding a truly fearsome hunter to its roster in the form of Predator. Epic Games’ free-to-play battle royale just released its 15.2 update, which, among other things, saw the addition of a Predator spray and banner icon. The addition of the alien hunter comes as no surprise to some, who pointed out signs over a month ago that Fortnite was teasing the crossover event....

Despite some hard work on the part of developer Gun Media, Friday the 13th The Game continues to have server trouble, now three days after launch. In some cases some players’ experiences with the game have worsened, as they are not able to access the servers when they previously could. While the most prominent issue with Friday the 13th The Game is long wait times for matchmaking, the latest problem is a database login failure error....

Game developers working in the online multiplayer sphere are always looking for ways to optimize lobbies and matchmaking algorithms in an effort to create an engaging competitive environment. Sometimes, the computations that put players together result in the player base grumbling a bit. Call of Duty’s skill-based matchmaking has been called too strict by fans and pros alike. However, a new patent filed by Activision is looking into new ways to engage players in multiplayer lobbies....

In Ghost of Tsushima, there are roughly 3 million procedurally generated trees distributed throughout the game. The era of the PlayStation 4 is slowly drawing to an end. Soon, the PlayStation 5 will arrive and it will undoubtedly knock our socks off with all of its new technology, fabulous graphics, and life-like sound. But we gotta say, we’re still incredibly impressed by what the PlayStation 4 can still do, and in no other game is it more impressive than in Ghost of Tsushima....

Genshin Impact’s long-awaited latest banner is finally live. You can now roll on the Gentry of Hermitage banner and get a chance to earn yourself some brand new characters. Possibly the most anticipated character to enter Genshin Impact for a long time is Zhongli, the slick Geo elemental that you may have already met while questing through Liyue. Zhongli has a lot of potential as either a support character or a powerful DPS, and in this build guide we’re going to break down exactly what you need to make the most of the powerful polearm user Zhongli in Genshin Impact....

A Genshin Impact fan recently made a crossover from Persona 5 by recreating the All-Out Attack. In the video created by Raszero, Keqing triggers the All-Out Attack with the attack animation, Paimon says her cheesy phrases, and then it ends with Keqing saying her own catchphrase when she uses her Elemental Burst. Venti, Xingqiu, and Qiqi can also be seen in the background as supporting characters. These characters can be seen as players go through the Story Quest, from meeting the Corrupted Dragon Dvalin up to the Liyue quest and Side Quests....

Genshin Impact has a few hilarious glitches, but perhaps none that time quite so well with a character’s voice lines as this latest one from Twitter. Childe is often honest with you about his bow skills, but now it seems like he’s given up on the craft. For a little context, if you aren’t a Childe user, he can swap between a bow and a pair of twin daggers to fight....

With Ghost of Tsushima’s launch, the last major PlayStation 4 exclusive will be available for fans to dig into. Thankfully, it seems the various reviews for Ghost of Tsushima make it out to be a title well worth experiencing for many PS4 owners. Interestingly, it seems that Ghost of Tsushima might have one common function that sets it apart from other major open world titles of the generation. According to an interview with the game’s lead engine programmer, it sounds like Tsushima will have incredibly fast loading times for an open world game, even on the base PS4 model....

The newest game from One More Level and 505 Games, Ghostrunner, feels like it was created with the intent of crafting one of the coolest games on the market. The game seemingly takes titles like Katana Zero, Titanfall, and Doom as direct inspirations for its core gameplay loop, and executes on them extremely well. Wrap these inspirations in a beautiful cyberpunk aesthetic and players will find the challenging yet satisfying package that is Ghostrunner....
