For those players that want to simplify that process, this guide will detail exactly where the brew needs to be placed....

Fortnite Season 6 is in full swing, but it seems as if Epic Games still has some work to do when it comes to ensuring that the free-to-play Battle Royale portion of the title continues performing as smoothly as possible overall. Today, the studio announced that the Port-a-Fortress item is having some issues, so Epic has decided to temporarily remove it. On the plus side, though, Shadow Stones have returned after a brief hiatus from the game....

Fortnite fans are calling for a nerf or the removal of the customizable superhero skin, as it can be used to give players a strategic gameplay advantage. Over the years Epic Games has introduced a number of skins to Fortnite, some of its own making, and some more famous skins as part of crossover events. Just last month, Epic Games managed to end the console wars by introducing Master Chief and Kratos skins....

Recently, the Chinese government created an Online Gaming Ethics Review Committee to ensure video games do not contain “ethically questionable content.” Of the 20 games reviewed by this new committee, 11 developers were instructed to take “corrective action.” 9 games have been selected, including Fortnite, to be banned in its entirety. While the banned games may be a surprise to some, it’s worth mentioning that China has even censored Winnie the Pooh in Kingdom Hearts 3....

One Friday the 13th: The Game beta tester uncovers an unexpected way to kill a camp counselor that doesn’t involve Jason and leads to some glitch-filled hilarity. While much of the early talk around Friday the 13th focused on key concepts and themes that the developers want to explore, this week gamers finally got their first meaningful look at the game thanks to a closed beta test. Admittedly, developer Gun Media kept the beta pool small, but thanks to Twitch and other streaming/video services, those who aren’t in the beta can still see what the game offers....

There is a sequence near the end of the second “A Song of Ice and Fire” novel, A Clash of Kings, that is absolutely mesmerizing. Trapped in a snowy and secluded mountain passage with only one direction to go, a very green Jon Snow and the rugged Qhorin Halfhand lead a group of brother crows in a hopeless chase through the slush as the righteous Free Folk close in on them....

Game Ranter Banter: 38 Layoffs, Gears of War Judgement, and E3 2012 Most of the Game Rant writers agree - that Dishonored trailer looks awesome, and we’re looking forward to (hopefully) playing the game at E3 next week. But we know what you’re really looking forward to - the Game Ranter Banter. Oh, and all those game announcements, I guess. This week, five of our writers discuss the 38 Studios layoffs, the newly announced Gears of War: Judgment, Dead Space 3 coop, Ubisoft’s E3 press conference and why one writer can’t wait for next generation....

Hideo Kojima’s highly-anticipated return to the industry may not have been received with open arms across the world, but there is no denying that Death Stranding is an absolute masterpiece. From the odd narrative to the daunting exploration, Kojima Productions certainly delivered to the masses a video game with extraordinary potential, riddled with intricate details that many are still finding even to this day. One such gaming detail is the alteration made to the Bridges Distribution Centers....

Genshin Impact is a fun game, that like most does some things that just won’t ever make sense to players. The world of Teyvat is huge, and for the most part, there are a lot of things happening inside of it. From the strange and possibly misunderstood Hilichurl tribes, to the mysteries Diluc, things in this peaceful world are not as they seem. While most gamers don’t think too hard about all the little things that make no sense, some of the community can’t help but to try and poke fun at some of the games sillier mechanics and story elements....

Chinese developer miHoYo’s open-world RPG Genshin Impact has been available for nearly two weeks, and many players are flocking to it every day. With over 21 million players pre-registering for the free-to-play game before launch, it’s easy to say the game has been popular around the globe. However, some of these players have likely hit a point where they want to optimize their team’s output in battle. When it comes to building the best possible team composition in Genshin Impact, there are many things that players must think of....

The newest banner to hit Genshin Impact is also the game’s second promotional banner event, and introduces the mischievous Pyro-user, Klee. This clover-themed explosives expert introduces several new uses of the Pyro Element/Vision, and apparently, they share some interactions with Anemo-wielders’ abilities. Genshin Impact hit the mobile stores barely one month ago, and initially featured the Anemo-proficient bard, Venti, as a five-star character. With the introduction of Klee, players now have the opportunity to further diversify their parties....

As of the time of this writing, Genshin Impact players are only two days away from the release of the game’s massive 1.1 update. While many players are excited about the various quality of life improvements that will come with this update, others are far more eager to obtain the new characters that are being added. And in an effort to stimulate this excitement, miHoYo has now officially revealed the first banner that players will be able to wish upon in the new update....

The wait for more Original Resin is painful in Genshin Impact, Mihoyo has acknowledged as much in updates, but even after those changes the community still struggles with what to do while waiting for the slow battle currency to regenerate. Instead of sitting by and waiting for Mihoyo to spice things up, players have taken charge and added in their own “fun” to disguise the pain. It’s no secret that hardcore players are unhappy with the state of Original Resin and how slow it is to refresh....

Fans of miHoYo’s latest title, Genshin Impact, have had a remarkably eventful month, given the game’s first major update and in-game event arriving in tandem with an outpour of leaks. Now that players have had some time with Version 1.1 of the game, it’s becoming increasingly evident that Version 1.2, rumored for December 23, 2020, is indeed right around the corner. In the latest Genshin Impact Developers Discussion, miHoYo effectively confirmed a list of upcoming quality of life (QoL) adjustments players should expect with Version 1....

There’s no denying that the upcoming God of War title is a departure from the usual franchise formula in a lot of ways. Although the change in tone is incredibly exciting for many fans, there is a portion of the audience who is unhappy with the idea of seeing this new, potentially more vulnerable side of Kratos. The naysayers have been out in full force on social media and the game’s creative team has definitely noticed....

Straight out of the gate, God of War has been wooing critics and setting records. The latest comes from the UK, where the game debuted near the top of the video game charts. Across the pond, the PlayStation exclusive is the second biggest week one release this year, trailing just behind Far Cry 5 according to physical sales numbers. While it may take second place in this instance, it’s the first when it comes to the God of War franchise as a whole....

One good Winnie the Pooh reference is enough to get a game not only banned in China but also banned on any platform trying to do business in China. Originally released on Steam back in February, Devotion was pulled just days later after the game was review bombed for including a satirical reference to Chinese President Xi Jinping. That reference was a talisman on the wall that read “Xi Jinping Winnie the Pooh,” a long-standing meme that compares the Chinese president to Disney’s dumpy stuffed bear....
