Realme GT Neo 5 appears to have raised its head above the parapit ahead of an expected announcement at this year’s Mobile World Congress event. The upcoming budget flagship has popped up in Geekbench results online. Set to be the next phone after the Realme GT Neo 3, this new offering is already expected to have at least one notable feature thanks to the use of Oppo’s SuperVOOC charging. That means the Realme phone will reportedly be capable of charging its 4,500mAh battery in just nine minutes, which is pretty insane....

Microsoft launches a brand new trailer for ReCore during its E3 2016 presentation, detailing the upcoming Xbox One and PC exclusive’s characters and gameplay. Ever since ReCore was first revealed during last year’s E3, gamers have been chomping at the bit to learn more about the mysterious title. Thankfully, one year later, Microsoft has unveiled a brand new video that gives gamers a bit of a closer look at the game....

There are a lot of plants in Red Dead Online, each with their own uses that make them worth collecting when you get the chance, but the Harrietum Officinalis is unlike anything else in the game. If you want to experience the transformative properties of this rare herb, you’ll want to follow our guide. Most plants and herbs in Red Dead Online do simple things, such as restore health, and many can be crafted into various medicines or used as ingredients for poisons....

Red Dead Online has been seeing consistent updates as of late, bringing new animals for players to either hunt or transform into. The latest addition is a dangerous new bear, with the golden fur sure to be a hot commodity to some of the characters in Red Dead Online. This newest legendary bear added to Red Dead Online joins a group of similar creatures, with another spirit bear called the Ridgeback and a legendary bear called the Oziwa being added to the game last month....

While Red Dead Redemption 2 offers lots of major gameplay features, the game is also full of smaller systems and game mechanics. From the core stats that players can level up, the maintenance of different guns (which impacts the effectiveness of the weapon), and the camp morale system, there’s plenty for players to think of. It’s understandable then, that some of the game’s most useful settings have gotten lost in the pile....

How many people remember the Donkey Kong Country cartoon? The series ran for two seasons, from 1997-2000, and starred the titular Donkey Kong, fending off King K. Rool’s attempts to steal The Crystal Coconut and take control of the island. The show doesn’t seem to have had much lasting cultural impact in the long run, but it has its own sense of charm, and it has some qualities going for it which would be replicated by later shows like Sonic Boom....

It’s Christmas come early for fans of the Halo series today, and not only due to the announcement of Halo 5: Guardians. While the still-mysterious sequel will be bringing Master Chief to the Xbox One in the form of a brand new game engine and story line, it won’t be doing so until 2015. Now, rumors have surfaced that Microsoft may be bridging the gap with the release of ‘Halo: The Master Chief Collection’; a release bundling Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3 and Halo 4, all remastered for a release on the Xbox One....

Following months of rumors and speculation, Microsoft officially announced the Perfect Dark reboot game at The Game Awards 2020. Developed by Microsoft’s super team The Initiative, not much is known about the Perfect Dark reboot beyond that it will once again star Joanna Dark and is aiming for release on PC and Xbox Series X. Recently, the Perfect Dark reboot lost a key member of its team, but now it has added a producer who has worked on some of the industry’s biggest games....

With Persona 5 Royal just on the horizon, set to be released on March 31, it’s almost time to take another dive head-first into the world of Persona 5. There’s so much you can do in Persona 5 that it can be a bit overwhelming but one of the most important things to do is leveling up your confidants. Maxing out confidant levels allows you to build relationships with the major characters you interact with which in turn unlocks some nice perks like discounts at shops or getting more money from battles....

A new character trailer for Persona 5: The Royal has been released and it focuses on Ann Takamaki, who operates under the “Panther” codename when acting as a member of the Phantom Thieves. The character trailer for Ann shows Morgana giving her flowers and the two adopting a design that is similar to a romance scene in a shojo manga. It’s likely that this is part of one of the new team attacks in the game, as there is one showcased at the end of the trailer which seems to be in the same location....

It was just about 13 years ago that Phantom Dust made its debut in Japan, with a North American release following a year later in 2005. The game combined elements of both third person shooter and card-based gameplay, allowing players to enter the arena via story mode or against three friends in multiplayer action. While the game never proved to be a smash hit, Xbox head Phil Spencer was always a fan of the “ahead of its time” title - which may explain why Phantom Dust is now being re-released today with its original assets for both Xbox One and PC, at absolutely no cost to gamers....

In what might be one of the biggest (and most interesting) pickups heading into the 2021 Overwatch League season, the Philadelphia Fusion announce they have secured Mano from conference rival New York Excelsior. After having their best season yet, but falling short in the Grand Finals bracket, the Fusion look serious about contending at the top again as signing a talent like Mano is huge. Fusion’s main tank, Sado, had his best season yet which might leave some wondering about the decision to bring in another top-tier main tank talent in Mano....

Photographer Judy A. Juracek is suing Capcom for up to $12 million in damages on a count of copyright infringement after it allegedly used her images in several of its titles, including Devil May Cry and Resident Evil 4. As reported by Polygon, the lawsuit, which was filed on Friday, alleges that Capcom used images from Juracek’s 1996 book, Surfaces, in several of its games. Surfaces collects over 1200 images of different textures that Juracek photographed herself and is designed to be used as “visual research” for other artists and photographers....

While we have yet to see actual gameplay of Frontier’s newest developing game, Planet Zoo, we do have extremely high hopes. The create-a-zoo game is meant to be the spiritual successor to the first of its kind, Zoo Tycoon, a game which many of us grew up playing. While we devoted countless hours to making guests happy and extending the life of our Sahara Lion exhibits, little did we know that as adults, we would see something potentially better… or is it?...

Later this year, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds will be released on Xbox One. The game made a splash when it launched on PC in March, and is one of the biggest games releasing on Xbox One this year. However, according to a new interview, developer Bluehole is already planning to release the game on PS4. Speaking to Bloomberg, the founder of Bluehole, Chang Byung-gyu (who owns 20% of the company) revealed that the developer had held talks with all of the “major console companies” about bringing the game to consoles....

With PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds now out of early access on PC (the Xbox One version is still in early access), fans of the hit battle royale game have been eager to find out what’s next. Developer PUBG Corp. had already promised to introduce new anti-cheat software, but there are apparently more new additions in store. PUBG Corp. has now shed a little more light on what PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds fans can expect in the coming weeks and months....

It is the last Wednesday of the month, which means it is time for Sony to announce what itslineup of free games for Playstation Plus subscribers will be for next month. While the titles may not be as big for April as they were for March’s lineup, which included Bloodborne and Ratchet & Clank, there are still a couple of noteworthy games. As usual, the announcement was made by Sony via the Playstation Blog....

There have been eight generations of Pokémon games, and each one has brought new features, mechanics, stories, and more. Much of the time, new mechanics are beloved by fans and are included in future games, but some are not so lucky. Every so often, Game Freak introduces a new element to gameplay that fans absolutely hate, or game features that spark endless debate between those who despise them and those who like them....

Grass Pokémon are typically based on plants and other earth-type creatures, so it’s probably surprising how tall some of them can get, especially those that aren’t based on the tallest plants — trees. Some Grass-types are so tall they rival even more intimidating types like Fire, Dragon, or Rock-types, all of which are often very large. It’s no surprise that some Legendary Pokémon are included on this list, as Legendaries are typically pretty big....

Pokémon Red & Blue are coming up on the 25th anniversary of their release in the coming years and the Pokémon franchise shows no sign of slowing down. The games are known for the fantastical creatures that evolve, but they also happen to have a host of interesting, relatable, and mysterious characters that trainers meet along their journey to becoming Pokémon Champion. Who are the best and worst of the bunch, though?...
