The recent 1.5 update for Hunt: Showdown filled me with anxiety: what if this new update, which has changed so much, finally broke the finely hewn balance of the game? It added an entirely new ammunition system: a matrix of unlockable damage effects and bullet parameters that offer entirely new rules of engagement. In any game that might have been a risky balancing act, and here — in a project that has spent years fine-tuning its gun game — it could have potentially been fatal....

Ubisoft Montreal’s Hyper Scape is receiving a new title update, patch V2.0, for its second season.

Starting tomorrow, Hyper Scape Season 2 will be arriving along with several new additions and changes that will optimize gameplay performance. Some of the features were mentioned in Ubisoft’s overhaul plans for Hyper Scape, not too long ago, and some of them will be added tomorrow....

Ash Ketchum has been on his quest to catch ‘em all for almost 24 years, although strangely enough, he hasn’t caught very many of ‘em. Out of the whopping 898 Pokemon currently known to exist, Ash has only managed to snag a measly 77. What’s more, 30 of these are just Tauros. It’s been 24 years, Ash. Come on. Fortunately, the world’s most famous Pokemon trainer has picked up some pretty great ‘mons along the way....

Unlike other Ubisoft games, like Assassins’ Creed Valhalla, Immortals Fenyx Rising wasn’t planned. The game comes from a bug in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey that turned people into giant cyclopses. So the devs thought it was a good idea to make a game that fully embraced Greek culture. Flash-forward to 2020, Ubisoft releases Immortals Fenyx Rising, a game filled with Greek gods, frightening mythological creatures, and the fearsome titan Tiffon. It’s fair to say that the game was a total success, quickly gaining a huge fanbase that relishes in Fenyx Rising funny moments and shares them with other players....

Indiana Jones 5 still seems to be part of Disney’s plans for the future, although as with everything else in this increasingly lost year of 2020, the pandemic has almost certainly slowed development on a project that was already crawling along for years. Of course, the big news revealed earlier this year — back in February, to be exact — was that Steven Spielberg was no longer going to direct the movie....

After a long development process, Ooblets is finally set to release into Early Access on the Epic Games Store and Xbox One on July 15.

For those who may not be familiar with the game, Ooblets givers players control of a farm where they can grow their friends and have them interact through daily life in several entertaining ways....

A couple of months ago, actor, comedian, and musician Jack Black created his own gaming-themed YouTube channel called Jablinski Games. The channel was an immediate success, nearing 4 million subscribers, with its videos consistently surpassing millions of views each. Due to technical difficulties, however, the Jablinski Games channel hasn’t actually featured much in the way of gaming content until just recently. Fans were first tricked by a fake video of Jack Black supposedly playing Fortnite, but now they can enjoy some actual footage of the Tenacious D frontman playing video games....

Earlier this month, Grand Theft Auto Online received a massive Summer Special update that added in a slew of new content including new cars, co-op missions, and other minor tweaks and updates. But one new addition made within the game happens to be a secret mission involving a giant UFO, and the theft of some outer space parts. Though it is still unknown how players can access this new mission through normal means, a group of hackers have managed to force the mission to start using tools and have shown off gameplay footage of it....

Despite the problems caused by COVID-19, many esports functions continue. The norm is for events to move online, which presents hurdles, but rarely insurmountable ones. One of the more profitable endeavors, the Call of Duty League, continues to make changes. The most obvious includes the hiring of a new commissioner, but changes are occuring on a team level as well. The Call of Duty League represents the official competitive scene of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, and other COD games in the future....

There are a few different Artifact currencies in the Underworld that Zagreus must collect in order to level up and eventually escape to the surface. But, few of them are as important as Darkness, a strange purple gem-like substance that he can use to upgrade his talents at the powerful Mirror of Night. This powerful Mirror, created by the powers of Nyx, uses Darkness collected from the Underworld as a sort of experience-point currency, used to level-up various talents that make Zagreus more powerful, from the amount of health he has to an increase to the number of times he can dash, among many other things....

Surprisingly, the news broke thanks to a fan who sent an email to Laidlaw to express frustration over the lack of information from Valve regarding Half-Life 3....

Of all the gaming icons to surface over the last few decades, Master Chief from Halo reigns as one of the most iconic characters in video game history. Master Chief has been the figurehead of the entire Halo franchise since its inception, though the origin of the character has not been properly discussed at length. Halo is one of the most popular and influential video game franchises of all time. The original Halo: Combat Evolved proved itself a landmark title for the original Xbox and would go on to produce numerous sequels and spin-offs....

This Halo review contains spoilers. Halo Episode 6 After some fun action last week, a talky Halo episode puts more weight on its thin characterizations than they can handle. The UNSC is on the hunt for the second alien artifact. It could lead them to the Halo ring, but no one is entirely sure what it is. The important thing: both sides, UNSC and Covenant, want it. After attacking Halsey, the Master Chief continues to test the limits of his newfound shackles....
