[ad_1] It is true that many of those downloads came shortly after the game’s launch. The creators were celebrating the 500 million mark in September 2016, or just weeks after its debut. Growth has clearly been much slower since — it’s just that the game managed to keep and foster its player base well after […]

EA’s largest ‘Apex Legends’ tournament yet starts September 13th
[ad_1] As the name implies, teams have to apply to enter this tournament. This is primarily meant for seasoned pros rather than everyday players looking for a shot at glory. The award still pales in comparison to what the biggest Fortnite tournaments can offer. Remember, Fortnite World Cup solo winner Kyle Giersdorf won $3 million […]
First ‘Blair Witch’ gameplay trailer is all kinds of spooky
[ad_1] The first-person psychological horror game Blair Witch is set to arrive next month. Today, Bloober Team released the first gameplay trailer. The minute-and-a-half clip offers a preview of just how creepy the woods, haunted houses and monsters of Black Hills Forest will be. It gives us a better idea of how the game will […]
‘Fortnite’ gets a premier esports circuit in the Championship Series
[ad_1] More details are forthcoming, but Epic will kick off the Championship Series in earnest when the tenth season of Fortnite starts sometime in the near future. This is one of Epic’s first major moves in competitive Fortnite play after recruiting Overwatch League commissioner Nate Nanzer, and signals the company’s intentions. It wants official competitive […]
Android is (unofficially) available for the Nintendo Switch
[ad_1] It’s even based on the Android tree associated with NVIDIA’s Shield TV, so Tegra-exclusive titles like Borderlands and Half-Life 2 will run. It’d be an understatement to say there are caveats with this firmware. Even if you can live with the bugs, you shouldn’t expect support from Nintendo if things go haywire. You also […]
Bethesda’s ‘Doom’ re-releases will no longer need internet access
[ad_1] The requirement was ostensibly to reward members of Bethesda’s Doom Slayers Club for playing the original titles. While that’s a nice perk if you own the more recent Doom (or plan to get Doom Eternal), it’s a hassle if you just wanted a quick nostalgia trip. There have been a few other complaints as […]
The original ‘Pillars of Eternity’ RPG comes to Switch on August 8th
[ad_1] Obsidian promised months ago that Pillars of Eternity 2 would come to Switch owners, but what good is that if you’re a newcomer to the role-playing revival? Don’t worry, you won’t have to read a wiki to catch up. Obsidian has confirmed that the original Pillars of Eternity will reach the Switch on August […]
Epic Games Store cloud saves roll out for two games
[ad_1] Epic plans to expand cloud saves to many more games in the future, allowing players to seamlessly continue playing on a different PC and keep their save data somewhat more secure than if it were stored locally. Rival Steam has offered cloud saves since 2008. However, Epic CEO Tim Sweeney said the company has […]
Magic Leap’s Independent Creator Program delivers its first app
[ad_1] The game is a 3D jigsaw puzzle that sends players to world-famous monuments around the globe. Users watch landmarks, like the Statue of Liberty and the Taj Mahal, crumble. Then they must piece them back together. This is just the first of several games to come out of ICP, and Magic Leap says we […]
Quakecon’s Steam sale offers steep discounts on ‘Doom’ and ‘Wolfenstein’
[ad_1] It won’t surprise you to hear that Bethesda is also using this as an excuse to slash prices on games that wouldn’t make much sense outside of QuakeCon. You can get the reimagined Prey and Dishonored 2 at 80 percent discounts, while Fallout 4 and its VR counterpart are both 75 percent off. And […]
