Pokémon Camp is a brand new mechanic introduced in Pokémon Sword & Shield. When camping with your party Pokémon, Trainers can cook up a ‘classic’ British staple - curry. Whilst at first it may seem a bit pointless, cooking curry is essential if you want to complete your Currydex. It also has benefits like healing your team, XP boosts and additional in-battle bonuses, just like Pokémon Amie did in earlier games....
Silicobra is a new snake Pokémon introduced in Sword & Shield. It’s a straight Ground-type, making it look pretty average at first glance. However, its true power lies in its ability to Gigantamax. Its evolution, Sandacobra, can use the new gimmick to become a giant snake tornado, which is both cool and gives it an edge in battle. Here’s where to find one. Where To Find Silicobra For being a new Pokémon, Silicobra is not very plentiful in its debut games....
Pokemon GO has been teasing a new era of Mega Evolutions for a while now and it seems like the wait is finally over. Although many players were predicting this new content would be arriving later in September, it seems like Professor Willow is ahead of schedule and is already handing out a new Special Research storyline featuring a brand new item that begins to introduce how Mega Evolutions will work in the mobile AR game....
Pokemon GO players who are powering through the Special Research quest line may already be finding and catching Mew. Although adding the super rare monster to the pokedex should be exciting enough, many players still want to make sure that their Mew is as perfect as possible. That means the hunt for a 100% IV Mew is officially underway for many players. Getting a 100% IV spawn of any monster in Pokemon GO requires a lot of luck, but the odds are even tougher for Mew, considering the restricted spawn....
Pokemon GO players busy completing high value trades thanks to the special discounts currently available during the trading event, but apparently Niantic may not be finished with player to player interaction additions for the year. According to a new rumor, the mobile AR game may be adding PvP battles by the end of the year. The intel comes from an interview with Anne Beuttenmuller, Niantic’s european Head of Marketing. The chat was focused on Ingress, but the topic did turn towards Harry Potter and Pokemon GO at a few points....
Developer Niantic has heard Pokémon GO fans loud and clear and today released an update that, while small in scope, is sure to please the community. Specifically, the update will give dedicated players a guaranteed chance at evolution stones, which have become a very difficult to earn item thus far. Tuesday’s Pokémon GO Update, as mentioned, is a small one. But the key element is that it will award a random evolution stone for players that hit the 7-day mark on their ‘First Pokestop of the Day’ streak....

We had already brought gamers the news that a new Rainbow Six title was in development, as leaked by a LinkedIn profile, and now we have even more confirmation to this sequel’s existence. Potentially titled something along the lines of Rainbow Six: Patriots, if two domain registrations by Ubisoft are legitimate, this sequel would see bigger cinematic action and a grittier story. The domain names in question, Rainbow6Patriots.com and RainbowsixPatriots.com, are currently devoid of content, but their existence points towards Ubisoft revving up a new Tom Clancy Rainbow Six title....
At GDC 2019, Google confirmed the Google Stadia specs which at 10.7 teraflops, which makes the game streaming technology more powerful than the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X put together. However, while Stadia can easily beat this generation of consoles, new comments suggest that next-generation systems will outpace it. In a new interview, Frederik Schreiber, the vice president of Duke Nukem developer 3D Realms, said that Google Stadia “isn’t relevant at this point....
If you’re on the fence about which console to pick up as we head into a new generation of video games, let me help you make that choice a little more clear. I’ve had a couple of weeks with both PS5 and Xbox Series X - the two most powerful machines you can buy - and I’m now going to make them battle to the death. Design PS5 looks like a robot Oreo from the mirror universe where the cream goes on the outside and Oreos aren’t edible*....
For a while, horror games had started to change. Survival horror games started to incorporate quicker pacing, eschewing atmospheric or encroaching horror elements in favor of jump scares and thrills instead of lasting fear. Many point to games like Resident Evil 4 as the beginning of this trend of games shaping the horror genre into frequent quick scares full of loudness and lacking subtlety. Any player vulnerability began to fade away, since the core of these games was an action game, though things are starting to change once again....
Earlier in January, Italian game publisher 505 Games announced that it had acquired Infinity Plus Two, the studio behind the free-to-play multiplatform title Gems of War and the Puzzle Quest series, which first appeared on the Nintendo DS and PlayStation Portable consoles in 2007. And now Puzzle Quest 3, a third entry in the original series has been announced. The mainline Puzzle Quest titles combine RPG mechanics, such as questing, leveling up, and acquiring new gear to improve combat skills, with the match-3 puzzle elements of games like Bejeweled....

Ratched is coming soon to Netflix, and for those unfamiliar with the 1975 Oscars-dominating classic film, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, the series has nothing to do with gear-based tools. The eight-episode series will see television titan Ryan Murphy build upon the existing property, with repertory player Sarah Paulson starring as the titular character destined to become an abusive asylum nurse, a role that won Louise Fletcher the Best Lead Actress statue from director Milos Forman’s film....
Ratchet and Clank are drifting apart across the multiverse in Insomniac’s Rift Apart come June 11, and to celebrate, a brand new teaser has just dropped. This time, Zurkon Jr. walks us through a variety of planets - some old, some new. On the planet selector, we see Savali, Scarstu Debris Field, Sargasso, and Corson V, before blasting off to Nefarious City in the latter. Then, the teaser cuts to Sargasso: Outpost L51 and that might sound familiar to intrepid fans of the Future Trilogy on the PlayStation 3....
A sequel to the beloved gaming-centric novel Ready Player One has been announced and is slated for release in November. Released in 2011, Ready Player One is Ernest Cline’s debut novel blending gaming and literature into a dystopian tale that follows Wade Watts on his search for a Easter eggs in a hyper-realistic virtual reality game. His journey through the MMORPG is both a sci-fi action-adventure sprinkled with a bit of romance, eventually becoming a New York Times bestseller....
It’s still a little too early to say for sure, but so far the legacy of Cyberpunk 2077 is what happens when you overhype a game for years and then release it before even half the bugs were squashed and missing many of the promised features. That is to say, it was a monumental cluster of a game that surpasses even No Man’s Sky. But like No Man’s Sky, developer CD Projekt Red has promised to fix and finish Cyberpunk 2077 so that perhaps over the next year the game’s true legacy will turn out to be some pretty amazing cocktails....
If you thought Remnant From The Ashes boss fights were challenging enough with all the extra adds, AOE damage, and small spaces, there’s even more. With some of the bosses you encounter, you can either prompt alternative fight sequences or get an alternative drop of loot when they are defeated. Going back in and finding every weapon and mod you missed means doing these boss fights all over again to get the extra drop!...
Gunfire Games’ Remnant: From the Ashes has been a resounding success for the studio, selling over 1.6 million copies as of July. Remnant’s high sales were a surprise for the development team, but not an unwelcome one. According to Design Director John Pearl, Remnant has been a passion project for Gunfire Games, building off multiple previous titles it put out. Today, on the first anniversary of Remnant releasing for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, the developer has launched the game’s second — and final — major DLC....
