Since it was first revealed in June, the notion of a hardcore version of World of Warcraft Classic has got everyone prepping themselves for the devastation of permadeath, plying their trades in the PTR (public test realm) servers while they wait for the real thing.

Kristina Ebanez — Mon, 31 Jul 2023 19:10:19 +0000

Since the Nintendo Switch’s release, the console has continued to thrive in sales and popularity thanks to its ever-growing gaming collection and updated models. But now that the device has been out for quite some time, many fans are wondering about the next phase for the company.

Fortunately, there has been a new development on this front regarding the new generational devices. According to sources from VGC, the next Nintendo model is expected to release in the “second half of 2024,” given that this period will give the company enough time to implement the proper storage capacity on Day One launch.

With all the changes revealed for Warzone Season 5, it can be tough to know which are set to impact different modes’ metas in the long-run and those that will be less significant. In terms of DMZ’s adjustments though, there’s one that stands out as both huge and welcome.

DMZ Season 5 Change Will Make You Undetectable To AI

That’s right. No more dropping into a busy POI and being relentlessly gunned by bots you’re just trying to ignore. It’s all because of a new item coming with DMZ Season 5.

Nintendo has just added two new Game Boy Color games to its library of classic NSO games. This latest update brings the Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons and the Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages to Nintendo Switch Online.

Developed by Capcom in 2001, the two are separate games with unique plots, with Oracle of Seasons concentrating on action and Oracle of Ages concentrating on puzzles. After one game is completed, players can play an extended version of the other game with the use of a password. This means that each game is essentially a sequel to the other with the ability to start either one first.

With Bethesda Game Studios’ next big game on the horizon, anticipation for the company’s first new IP in 25 years is reaching a fever pitch. To help shed some light on the many worlds fans will be exploring when Starfield launches on Sept. 6, the studio has released a trio of new animated shorts.

These animated teasers stand in stark contrast with some folks’ concerns leading up to the interstellar space RPG’s launch. Namely: Starfield is going to be an empty, lifeless No Man’s Sky-esque experience.

Sims 4 Horse Ranch Players Think Unicorns Might Have Been Cut After All

Kristina Ebanez — Mon, 24 Jul 2023 16:07:38 +0000

The Sims 4’s vast horse collection allows many players to craft the steed of their dreams, with over 30 breeds and numerous coat colors. However, fans were quick to notice one type missing from the selection, and that is the mystical unicorns.

Yet, despite the creature’s absence, Simmers analyzed the matter further by looking over the Horse Ranch expansion’s coding, where they discovered a line designated for these unique stallions. It seems as though this horse was previously a part of the family, but it was ultimately removed from the official version.

DMZ’s Crazy Duplication Glitch Is Literally Giving Warzone Players 100 Ultra Rare Items

Joe Craven — Mon, 24 Jul 2023 09:34:41 +0000

Warzone’s DMZ extraction mode, for all the love it continues to receive from the player base, has come in for some criticism of late. Players have highlighted cheating and glitches as serious issues but, as we approach Season 5, a far more serious duplication exploit is causing havoc.

DMZ has encountered duplication glitches in the past, letting players spawn multiple versions of a desirable item or weapon. However, we’re not sure there’s ever been one like this.

Sims 4 Horse Ranch Players Have Already Come Up with a Great New Challenge

Kristina Ebanez — Fri, 21 Jul 2023 21:32:07 +0000

The Sims community has come up with countless challenges throughout the years as a way to implement a more advanced objective-based system into the game. Many fans have struggled with the strenuous task of the 100 Baby challenge (even I had difficulties with the Infants update) and other unique concepts, but now it’s been taken up a notch with a new Horse Ranch fan-made objective.

Reddit user INS_Fang developed an idea with the latest expansion pack, where you’ll need to place animals from previous exclusives, like Cottage Living and Cats and Dogs, while maintaining them as best as you can. On top of that, you can throw the needy infants into the mix that’ll make you want to close out the game, just like the player almost did.

Sim 4 Players Are Already Making Amazing Red Dead Redemption Creations in the Horse Ranch

Kristina Ebanez — Fri, 21 Jul 2023 16:56:22 +0000

The adventures of the Van der Linde gang have continued on in The Sims 4: Horse Ranch, bringing in iconic characters, beloved animals, and classic sets.

With the latest cowboy attire, Simmers have created the series’ notable main protagonists, John Marston and Arthur Morgan. But, of course, these two are nothing without the rest of the cast, and you can reunite the entire gang by combining other Create a Sim models, from Charles Smith to Dutch van der Linde himself (just ignore Micah Bell.)

Warzone’s Annoying Temp V Is Actually a Brilliant Anti-Camper Device

Joe Craven — Wed, 19 Jul 2023 13:05:09 +0000

As part of the crossover with Amazon Prime’s The Boys TV show, the Temp V Field Upgrade has been parachuted into Warzone and its modes. While its inclusion has largely been questioned and canned by players, it turns out it can be used as a ruthlessly efficient counter to campers.

Season 4 Reloaded, dropping on July 12, brought a major pop culture crossover to Warzone in Activision’s collaboration with The Boys. Among Homelander, Black Noir and Starlight skins, it also introduced the Temp V Field Upgrade, a spin off of the show’s Compound V.

Joe Thomaselli — Wed, 19 Jul 2023 05:38:33 +0000

For the past year, Destiny 2 has been plagued by constant bugs and glitches. Bungie has already put out a statement that they are working towards improving their servers so these bugs would fade away. However, with the release of the 2023 Solstice of Heroes event, yet another game-breaking bug has appeared. Usually, Bungie would turn off one or two items causing the problem. This time around, Bungie has disabled four Armor mods until further notice.

Due to an issue, we have temporarily disabled the Bolstering Detonation, Focusing Strike, Impact Induction, and Momentum Transfer mods.

The Latest Sims 4 Patch Finally Lets You Customize This Crucial Part of Your House

Kristina Ebanez — Tue, 18 Jul 2023 19:54:15 +0000

To celebrate the upcoming Horse Ranch pack, Maxis Studios has introduced a much-needed mechanic to the game with ceiling customization.

If you are a longtime Simmer, you’ll know the design struggles of this particular interior, as it only features a white-colored layout in Build Mode, which ultimately didn’t match various home styles. But now, you can finally apply a pattern to the ceiling, allowing you to get the best arrangement of your choice.

Fortnite’s Getting a Vinyl, But It’s Missing the Best Track

Cameron Waldrop — Tue, 18 Jul 2023 17:16:17 +0000

While Fortnite has made plenty of merchandise deals, this new one is more specific to music fans. Epic Games is teaming up with Iam8bit to produce a Best of the Lobby vinyl. It will feature 18 Fortnite lobby tracks that players have been rocking out to while waiting for matchmaking to start. However, we noticed it doesn’t include the lobby tack ever made: Llama Beat (also called Llama Bell).

For those who may be unaware of this tune, YouTuber VazzyCow created a great music video so everyone can know exactly what they are missing out on.

Joe Craven — Tue, 18 Jul 2023 15:00:00 +0000

The developers at EA Sports have responded to criticism of FC 24’s graphics following the release of the Ultimate Edition cover.

FC 24 Was The ‘Best’ Time To Add Women’s Football Into Ultimate Team, EA Say

Joe Craven — Tue, 18 Jul 2023 15:00:00 +0000

After much anticipation and the gradual inclusion of women’s football into the FIFA series, EA’s FC 24 will officially incorporate female players into its ultra-popular Ultimate Team mode. Speaking at the game’s official reveal, the developers have explained why now was the time to make the significant change.

Women’s football has been growing in prominence in the FIFA series for some time, with the Women’s UCL dropping in FIFA 23. Women’s national teams first debuted in FIFA 16 and, with the baton passing from ‘FIFA’ to ‘EA FC 24’ it’s been confirmed that over 1,600 women players will be joining Ultimate Team.
