An ex-employee of Niantic has gone into great detail alleging higher-ups at the company turn a blind ear to complaints from players about Pokémon GO. As Pokémon GO’s fourth birthday creeps ever closer, the venture has to be considered a great success. The game has been downloaded millions of times and continues to make Niantic buckets of cash every year. It is even handling the current global pandemic very well. However, as with any game, Pokémon GO has its flaws....

In its first week, Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout sold over two million copies on Steam alone thanks to its accessible and welcoming gameplay. PlayStation 4 owners got lucky by receiving it on release day for free with a PlayStation Plus subscription. Few players are masters at every game mode, and the element of luck in some of the games makes for an even playing field. The following list will present sound strategies for every mini game....

One Fallout 4 user finally concludes their hunt for the most powerful object in the whole of the Commonwealth - and it comes in a rather surprising form. When it comes to harsh lands in video games, it’s hard to look past the world of the Fallout series. Human survivors face a wide variety of creatures looking to wipe out mankind, and nowhere is this more true than in the Boston of Fallout 4, which is certainly one of the worst video game cities to live in....

Fallout 4 is arguably the most anticipated release of 2015. Ever since the official announcement of its existence during Bethesda’s first-ever E3 2015 press conference, fans of the post-apocalyptic RPG franchise have continued to clamor for any new information regarding the game on a daily basis. Recently, the Maryland-based studio revealed that Fallout 4 will indeed have a Season Pass and DLC sometime post-launch, but perhaps the most welcome news came from Bethesda’s later confirmation that the DLC will not be platform exclusive....

While opinions are a little mixed when it comes to gameplay, most agree that Red Dead Redemption 2 is a good game. Its story is widely beloved, to the point where other RPGs can take pointers. However, Red Dead Redemption 2 is expanding past the anchor of its story and characters. Red Dead Online, originally the side multiplayer option for the game, is being expanded into a separate experience. Red Dead Online is now a standalone release that players can purchase for $5, but not all is well with this situation, as the Bounty Hunter Update accompanying the standalone version release has not gone over well with some fans....

Hideo Kojima is considered a master at his craft, and anytime he releases a video game, many fans try to understand his thought process and analyze his work. Kojima has been honored as one of the greatest video game creators, having received many awards for his work on Metal Gear. All of Hideo Kojima’s games not only have an extremely deep story, but always contain hidden underlying messages addressing real life problems....

Capcom leaks have been rampant ever since the ransomware attack on the company. More and more leaked information has been slowly trickling in and posted across various forums. The latest result of the attack are a number of screenshots of a developer build of the upcoming Resident Evil 8: Village. The screenshots appear to have developer metrics on them as well. These leaks are probably the result of Capcom refusing to pay the ransom demanded by the hackers....

Let me tell you a story about cows. Back in the day, before frustrating always-online requirements existed, back when Blizzard supported LAN play and people could buy games, install them and have everything from the get-go, the Diablo gaming community created a myth, a myth about cattle so important that it shaped the future of the franchise. Sort of. Somehow, the original Diablo - released on the last day of 1996 - gave rise to a rumor that by clicking repeatedly on a certain cow in the town of Tristram, a secret cow level would open its door to eager butchers-to-be....

Loki’s upcoming Disney+ show just got a brand new trailer full of teases, cameos, and moments that have corralled a fandom into nonstop questioning. One of these instances is an appearance of a Skrull in a tracksuit. Our favorite god of mischief walks into a scene that looks like the set of an Austin Powers flick given its overtly orange blaze of lighting. To top it off, there are Tardis-esc circles lining the ceiling in the cylindrical room....

Warframe developer, Digital Extremes, is promising big things for the game in 2021. TheGamer recently interviewed Digital Extremes about launching Warframe on the PS5, how a bug inspired the bullet jump mechanic, and decreasing Waframe’s file size while upgrading its visuals. The studio also teased its plans for Warframe in 2021. “2021 we’re really wrapping up to be a big content year,” said Digital Extremes COO, Sheldon Carter. “The stuff we have planned is not just stuff that’s gonna come at TennoCon; we’re looking at some big stuff even before then....

Arkane Studios set a high bar for voice acting with the original Dishonored, but it appears Dishonored 2 will feature even more vocal talent than before. Sometimes, it can be pretty easy to identify the different elements that go in to making a revolutionary game truly great. In Bethesda’s Dishonored, which was highly praised for a number of different features, it was a mix of nuanced gameplay, fascinating storytelling, an engaging atmosphere, and some of the best voice acting in modern gaming....

This review contains spoilers after the squirrel. 12.3 Orphan 55 The story of a base under siege, where the Doctor and his companions stumble upon a group of human scientists or soldiers who are slowly being picked off by an invasive alien force, is almost as old as the show itself. Since Doctor Who returned in 2005 we’ve seen all sorts of takes on the idea – gangs of possessed Ood, sleep-dust monsters, sentient Martian water and so on – and this week’s Orphan 55 is a relatively straightforward addition to the list, albeit with one or two plot twists to help it fit more snugly within the current run of episodes....

In what has been a long time coming for the game’s creater, Doom 2 modder Paul Schneider is bringing Unloved onto Steam as a standalone horror shooter. While many gamers associate Bethesda’s other series - The Elder Scrolls and Fallout - with having burgeoning modding communities, its a well-kept secret for many that the DOOM series of survival horror shooters has a group of dedicated modders just as passionate about improving the game in various ways....

Have you ever looked at Doom and thought, you know, this could do with being a little less… Doom-y? Well, of course you haven’t, but that’s because you haven’t seen the super cute and adorable Mr Friendly mod yet. Now, naturally, Doom is a game that needs no introduction. There are some titles that are just so influential, so impactful, that they shape the gaming landscape around themselves. These are the biggest of the big names, the games that forge whole genres....

Game Rant recently had the pleasure of sitting down with Dragon Ball Demon Breaker’s creative director, lead game designer, and producer, RedabCho. During the interview, RedabCho shared some great stuff about the upcoming fan Dragon Ball game (which accepts no donations, is not for profit, and is no way connected to the DBZ IP owners), but also took a moment to mention a new personal project of his own. At the time, RedabCho was unable to share any specific details about what he’s working on, but he did drop a few hints that are worth looking into....

While its launch has been a great success, Dragon Ball FighterZ is ready to move into its post-launch phase of development. Last week saw the announcement of the fighting game’s first two DLC characters, Broly and Bardock, but today brought a new reveal. Bandai Namco has introduced the patch roadmap for Dragon Ball FighterZ, which heavily prioritizes current online multiplayer issues. The “Roadmap for Patches” video released today features Bandai Namco producer Tomoko Hiroki being open regarding Dragon Ball FighterZ’s launch issues....

There is a wide range of races that players can choose from when building their characters in Dungeons & Dragons. Every race offers its own special abilities that a character wouldn’t have otherwise, and players can express themselves and their character through the race they select. However, while every race is useful in their own right, there are some races in the game that are incredibly popular, while others are more frequently slept on....

Many a druid and beastmaster ranger has wondered “what is the most powerful beast I can harness?” By the end of this list, you’ll know the strongest beast-type monsters in Dungeons & Dragons as well as what makes them so intimidating.

The class action lawsuit against EA over the use of its patented Dynamic Difficulty Adjustment technology has been dismissed.
