It’s mid-week which means that Fortnite is set to launch yet another update for its Battle Royale and Save the World modes. But of course, most of the focus is on the 1 vs. 100 Battle Royale mode, which has caught fire since debuting a few weeks ago. This latest update does not offer anything too substantial compared to the holiday patch, but it does make some important changes to Fortnite BR....
After a short delay, Playground was added to Fortnite, giving players full access to the island without having to worry about getting wiped out by an Omega skin a few minutes after landing. Playground also offers the perfect opportunity to practice building, which one group of creative players took to the extreme by erecting a near-perfect recreation of Nuketown from Call of Duty. The Playground LTM accommodates building by giving the player a greatly increased spawn rate of materials....
Friday the 13th: The Game was widely praised as a unique, engrossing multiplayer experience when it was released earlier this year.

Despite being one of the most anticipated video games currently in development, FromSoftware has remained extremely tight-lipped about the development of Elden Ring. Virtually nothing has been said regarding the game since Elden Ring was revealed at E3 2019, leaving fans desperate for every shred of news they can get regarding the game’s development. Described as FromSoftware’s largest game ever and featuring a collaboration with legendary author George R.R. Martin, it is hard to blame fans for being extremely hyped about the project....

The Cryo Hypostasis Daleth is a boss that was added in the 1.5 updates of Genshin Impact. The boss is found in the Dragonspine region and requires resin to claim rewards from much like the other elemental bosses. As one would expect from a Dragonspine fight, there is more to worry about than just getting hit by a few elemental attacks. Sheer cold plays a huge role in this fight, and players will need to do a bit of prep before hopping into the ring with the Cryo Hypostasis....
Genshin Impact has been an absolute hit since its launch just a few months ago, and Mihoyo can’t seem to stop collecting all of the end-of-year game awards out there. However, there always comes a time when a game has overstayed its welcome and it’s time for you to let go and uninstall. Or maybe it’s not even that complicated and something has glitched so you just need a fresh install, but regardless, Mihoyo won’t make it easy for you and the Genshin Impact uninstall screen will guilt trip you when you try to leave....

Some people might feel inclined to argue that superhero media has never been more mainstream than it is now. For decades ,there’s been plenty of movies and shows that let superheroes escape the comic panel, but the Marvel Cinematic Universe and similar projects that followed it showed just how popular superheroes are right now. On top of everything else, superheroes are staking a claim in video games with high-profile titles like Marvel’s Spider-Man, Marvel’s Avengers, and brand deals like those in Fortnite....

The summon monsters were one of the most iconic parts of Final Fantasy VII, yet the player didn’t gain access to them until they reached the Chocobo Farm outside of Midgar. The fact that Final Fantasy VII Remake only covers the Midgar section of the original story meant that fans were worried that summons wouldn’t make it into the game.

Finally, you can unlock achievements for games purchased in the Epic Games Store. Well, for one game at least. Epic Games is still a thing, and so is its game store. What first started as a blatant attempt to unseat Steam as the world’s greatest PC game digital storefront still hasn’t quite achieved the desired effect, but it’s got achievements now. So there’s that. Although Epic says that achievements will become a regular thing in most of its library, the only game to have achievements so far is Ark: Survival Evolved....
A lot has happened since Den of Geek was invited to visit the New Mexico set of Tom Hanks’ dystopian sci-fi movie, Finch, back in March 2019. For starters, Hanks became one of the very first high-profile COVID-19 cases, and the world shut down just days before the film was finished shooting. The movie was called “Bios” at the time of the set visit, and has since been brought from Universal to Apple TV+ (it’s available now)....
