Pokemon is no stranger to its variety of events. Events can be a very broad term, especially when it comes to the ones occasionally available in the games. You could describe something as simple as getting your starter Pokemon an event, while you could also restrict it to occasions involving legendary or mythical Pokemon. We’re referring to events as special, legendary, and mythical Pokemon only obtainable with methods that aren’t available in the base game alone....

The upcoming game, Valorant, is free-to-play 5v5 first-person shooter developed by Riot Games. Back on April 7, 2020, it launched a closed beta that can be viewed on Twitch via various streamers. As of now, 10 playable characters and 40 abilities have been made available in the Valorant beta. More are sure to be revealed before the game’s proper launch, but here is what to reference for closed beta players and viewers alike....

It’s not unusual for any big corporation to periodically renew its trademarks. This is especially true of Microsoft, which holds onto quite a few intellectual properties that they might want to make games out of in the future. One of those intellectual properties is Fable, a much-beloved RPG series that just might be getting a sequel on the Xbox Series X. Maybe. But first, the trademark. Microsoft submitted an application to renew the Fable trademark on June 26, according to documents obtained by IGN....

Often with multiplayer games, the meta can push certain characters and teams to the bottom. One of the most recent and notable examples is Fall Guys’ Yellow Team, which the other teams frequently gang up on to force an elimination. Unfortunately for the Yellow Team, the official Fall Guys Twitter account has not only noticed, but also joined in on the gentle ribbing. While Fall Guys’ community manager, Twitter user OliverAge24, has already been busy with schemes like pitting brands against one another for charity, the battle royale’s Twitter account has also stopped to share community memes about the underdog team....

A hoax being circulated around the Internet appears to give a set of instructions leading Fallout 4 players to a location where they can find mythical Pokemon Mew. Fallout 4 is a game that’s packed with hidden content and easter eggs, to the extent that just about anything could be tucked away in post-apocalyptic Boston. This morning, a neat Pokemon reference is doing the rounds — but it’s confirmed that the purported secret is a fan-made fake....

If you’re one of the few brave souls who decided to leave behind the Wild West of Red Dead Redemption 2 to step into the West Virginia of Fallout 76, you probably want to get something to make it worth your while. So what’s the most Fallout item you can get that you’ll never find in RDR2? How about some early-game Power Armor? Lucky for you, there’s a set of Power Armor up for grabs as soon as you exit Vault 76....

Fangoria, the long-running horror fan magazine, is once again under new management, which plans to use the Fangoria brand as the focus of a full-court multimedia blitz. Tara Ansley, CEO of Wanderwell Entertainment, and Abhi Goel, a tech entrepreneur, have purchased Fangoria and the rights to all its back material from its previous owner, Dallas Sonnier. Ansley and Goel’s plans for Fangoria include the planned launches of a podcast network, a production studio, and several digital imprints....

We break down the Books of Sorrow, a massive volume of lore from Destiny’s latest expansion that explains the origins of Oryx, the Hive, the Ahamkara, and more. When Destiny was first released, it was criticized for its lack of story, but fans soon discovered that Destiny’s deepest story content could actually be found in the Grimoire cards, unlocked in-game and available to be read on Bungie.net. With The Taken King, Bungie vastly improved its storytelling over what fans experienced in the game’s first year, but the expansion also brought more Grimoire to be unlocked, and it is no less substantial....

Destiny’s Iron Banner event will go live following the November update on Tuesday, but there will be some changes, namely the event will now use Clash as its PvP mode. Since its debut back in 2014, Destiny’s Iron Banner has been a regular treat for Crucible fans. Obviously it doesn’t offer the type of intensity that Trials of Osiris does, but the mode still has its appeals, namely special Iron Banner gear....

Earlier this month, Capcom released Devil May Cry 5, which was a long-awaited entry in the DMC franchise. While Devil May Cry 5 was no doubt one of the most anticipated games of 2019 prior to its release, the game’s voice actor Joey Camen, has gone under fire after several players of the game uncovered controversial YouTube videos that were labelled racist and homophobic. The controversial videos showed Camen allegedly wearing blackface and using racist language....

Video games that tie themselves into popular franchises are almost always a catastrophe waiting to happen. Mobile tie-ins tend to fare even worse. This makes it all the more difficult to say goodbye to adaptations that successfully manage to capture the charm of their source material. NimbleBit and Disney Mobile’s Tiny Death Star is one such game. Casting players in the role of the Death Star’s premiere business mogul, the game tasked players with opening business and residential blocks throughout the famous space station in order to draw in visitors and residents alike....

Eminem’s new album Kamikaze is proving itself to be quite controversial for its diss lyrics aimed at a wide number of other rappers, but that’s not the only reason it’s started some arguments on the Internet. There has been some confusion about whether one of the songs on the album, “Good Guy,” samples music from Kingdom Hearts, but we now know it does not. The confusion started when one of the album’s producers, IllaDaProducer, spoke to Rolling Stone and claimed that “Good Guy” sampled a song from Kingdom Hearts....

This Doom Patrol review contains spoilers. Doom Patrol Episode 4 The world of magic is introduced to Doom Patrol this week with a fourth episode that, while good, is a frustrating detour from the main mission of finding the Chief, and stopping Mr. Nobody. But, as far a two-episode side adventure goes, “Cult Patrol” succeeds largely due to the arrival of Mark Sheppard as Nonstantine chaos magician Willoughby Kipling, a character straight from the comic books....

Support heroes possess superior abilities compared to other roles in the early game. Supporters are responsible for ensuring their Cores have adequate lanes and farms.

Fenris is one of the major characters of Dragon Age 2, and one that fans still love to learn about. Just this year, Dark Horse Comics released Dragon Age: Blue Wraith, which goes into how Fenris is doing after the events of Dragon Age 2. Fans were quick to pick up their copies, showing that Fenris has not been easily forgotten nine years after he had been introduced to Dragon Age players....

As one of the more anticipated fighting games currently in development, Dragon Ball FighterZ quickly gained the attention of fight fans through its stellar character design and three-on-three layout. While this particular type of game is a new approach for the Dragon Ball property, the title is now gaining additional attention for the inclusion of a new and original character that has never been seen in the series before – and she comes in the form of Android 21....

The developers behind Dungeons & Dragons decided it was time to change some rules concerning kobolds and orcs. The two playable races, known for their negative stat modifiers, have been altered to have any detriments removed. Furthermore, orcs no longer have to have the Menacing trait. These alterations come as part of a larger set of changes and clarifications called Sage Advice. Longtime D&D players might recognize Sage Advice as the regular updating of rules....

As is tradition, rumors and theories ran rampant in the build-up to E3 2018. From new iterations of classic franchises to remasters to consoles, everything was fair game for the rumor mill. The major E3 presentations and reveals have come and gone, and we now have a better idea as to the theories that are becoming a reality, versus the rumors that we hope eventually come to full fruition. We take a look at some of the biggest stories that took place leading up to E3 2018, that ended up being noticeably absent from the conference....

Martin, the famous author of A Song of Ice and Fire. Besides its exciting yet brief trailer provided to us at E3, and a Q&A session with Miyazaki, we’ve yet to see any news since then. While we wait for more details on anything at all, including some gameplay, we can at least go over the five New Features we know of and five features we expect to see when it releases....
