The Coalition announces a test weekend for Gears of War 4 competitive crossplay multiplayer, allowing PC and Xbox One players to play together in Versus mode. One of the main selling points of Gears of War 4 is its PC/Xbox One crossplay. During its E3 2016 press conference, Microsoft was keen to promote the feature, explaining that the game’s campaign co-op, Horde 3.0, and its multiplayer would all allow PC and Xbox One gamers to play together....

Genshin Impact players have been enjoying the new Chalk Prince and the Dragon event so far, but there’s one quest in particular that has been causing some a lot of trouble. Though there are plenty of neat rewards to be gained from Albedo’s debut event, there are quite a few things players must do before they’re able to access those rewards. This involves helping Albedo with his research. Act 3 of the Albedo event just opened up, and already some players are stuck....

During the new Wishful Drops event in Genshin Impact you’ll meet a young Oceanid named Endora who can help you to collect a ton of free primogems. By helping Endora out, you’ll also gain access to the special event Rhodeia boss fight, which can net you tons of free leveling books. To access the quest, you must be at least adventure rank 20. Now that all the parts of Endora’s event are out, it’s a great time to do the full event and claim your free Oceanid pet....

It’s developed by the Chinese developer Mihoyo, who also created Honkai Impact 3rd.

With the summer season fast approaching and no major conventions planned due to the coronavirus, Geoff Keighley is expanding his previous “Game Festival” idea to be something even bigger. In addition to July’s “Steam Game Festival,” this summer will see Keighley launch “The Summer Game Fest” as a four-month celebration of the games industry. Over on Twitter, Keighley shared some details of what he hopes this show will become. “Since I was a kid, one of my favorite parts of the summer has been seeing all the video game companies band together to hype us up about the future of this incredible medium,” he writes....

Over the last few months there has been significant debate on whether or not video game loot boxes constitute gambling. While industry bodies such as the ESA disagree that they are gambling, elected officials in several countries such as Belgium and the United States have looked into legislation against the business model. Yet another country is about to weigh in on the loot box gambling debate according to report by the Welt Am Sonntag in Germany....

Next week begins the Solstice of Heroes, the annual event that honors the great accomplishments of Guardians and also the midway point between summer and winter. It’s happening a little earlier this year than last and it’s going to stretch for four weeks instead of three thanks to the delay on Destiny 2’s upcoming Beyond Light expansion. As with last year, the big draw for the Solstice of Heroes event is some glowing armor that will let your Guardian really stand out in the crowd....

Ghost of Tsushima fans that found themselves enjoying the game more than they initially anticipated now have the option to upgrade to the digital deluxe edition. This comes with a few in-game goodies and, perhaps more importantly, a 45-minute documentary about Ghost of Tsushima’s history, featuring behind the scenes information about the creation of the game. Previously, all of these bonuses were only available to players that purchased the deluxe edition of Ghost of Tsushima outright (or the Special or Collector’s Edition), but now players with the standard edition can pay a bit more to gain access to these....

Baldur’s Gate 3 is the RPG to end all RPGs (digital RPGs, anyway), peaking at nearly 74,000 concurrent players a couple of days ago. The game is still in the early access phase, but enterprising players have found a “secret” quest that you can go on to secure fame, fortune, and/or infamy. Luckily, even beginners can access this epic quest for Baldur’s Gate 3 (although it will still test your courage) by reading the end user license agreement....

Final Fantasy 14: Stormbringers is out of early access and officially launched, which means there is a ton of content to explore in the thriving MMO. Although high level players are probably busy unlocking the Dancer and Gunbreaker Jobs, the expansion is also likely to attract some new players to the world of Eorzea. Considering that the game originally launched in 2013, newbies have a lot of catching up to do....

As part of the announcement of Final Fantasy 14’s next expansion, Stormblood, Square Enix is revealing plans to end support of the PlayStation 3 platform. 2016’s Final Fantasy XIV Fan Festival in Las Vegas is in full swing. Square Enix’s Game Director for Final Fantasy XIV, Naoki Yoshida, took to the stage to reveal the MMO’s next big expansion, Stormblood, which will introduce players to the region of Ala Mhigo starting in early summer 2017....

After confirming that an update to Final Fantasy 15’s controversial Chapter 13 would be arriving on March 28, it appears that Square Enix have decided to surprise fans by dropping the patch a little earlier than expected. The new 5.6GB patch is now available to Final Fantasy 15 owners, and it comes in the form of two updates, Version 1.06 and Version 1.07. Whereas Version 1.07 is relatively minor and consists of only bug fixes, Version 1....

If there is any character to get behind in Final Fantasy 7, it is Red XIII, also known as Nanaki. This guy lost his family, was held captive by Professor Hojo, and was left without a will to live. However, Red XIII is inspired by his father’s sacrifice to keep on and become a noble and honorable warrior. His story and journey are some of the most fascinating elements of the game....

Fire Emblem fans were taken by surprise when Dimitri was shown in his time skip design. What happened to his eye? Why was he acting so demented wanting to kill every last one of them? The answers did not disappoint when the game came out and got to experience the Azure Moon route. As much as Dimitri has an outstanding character arc, the other Blue Lions students also have unique characteristics that make them work well together....

As the threat of a global pandemic grows, FLASHPOINT has formally announced that its first edition of its competitive league has been relocated entirely to Los Angeles. The news comes as little surprise, as more and more events are being postponed, relocated, or outright cancelled due to concerns over the spread of COVID-19, known also as the coronavirus. In its formal statement, FLASHPOINT reveals that after a brief period of consultation with the Counter-Strike Professional Players’ Association (CSPPA), the decision was made to cancel the playoffs in Stockholm in April, and to instead shift the focus entirely to one central location in Los Angeles....

Fans of Ubisoft’s hack-and-slash fighting game, For Honor, may have a new reason to return to the highly-rated title thanks to the announcement of Apollyon’s Legacy, an event currently taking place as part of the game’s fifth multiplayer season, The Age of Wolves. Having begun on February 15, Apollyon’s Legacy will run until March 8, and features a series of progressively stronger opponents for players to face in a new, limited-time game mode called Test Your Metal....

Tony Stark is a big personality in all the films and comics he stars in, so it makes sense that he would put some of that into his creations found in Fortnite. The Stark Robots found around the map are annoying pests at best or deadly foes at worst, but this week challenges you to find a way to make one of these bots boogie down with you. As the weeks go on, there are fewer opportunities to build up that XP and collect all the goodies on your battle pass, and this challenge is one that many might give up on....

While Fortnite Season 7 Week 4 is catching the tail end of Epic Games’ holiday festivities, including a snow-covered map and 14 days of modes, there are still the usual challenges for players to complete as well. And for those that have completed two weekly challenge sheets for Season 7, they will see a new loading screen for a hint at Week 4’s hidden banner in Fortnite. The loading screen features a Fortnite character performing an aerial trick on a snowboard, with a hamster pet tucked into her backpack....

It’s a rare thing when a new update for a game as big as Fortnite only happens to sport one noteworthy glitch, so it shouldn’t be all that shocking that this week’s Joy Ride update offers more than just the glitch that makes Fortnite’s cars fly. What’s especially noteworthy about this new one, though, is that it lets players effectively break the game by letting them carry as much gear as they want....
