Xbox fans are still waiting for their chance to play PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds when the game releases on console later this year, but many are already looking further into the future. During a recent interview with IGN, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds creator Brendan Greene fielded some questions regarding the future of the game, and where he saw the intellectual property 5 years from now. In his vision, Greene says that there isn’t a sequel....
The PlayStation 5 has been out for just over a week now and early reports from those who have been lucky enough to obtain one seem to generally be positive. But as with the launch of nearly any piece of hardware, there are some reports of issues with the console’s hardware and software. One issue though that seems to keep coming up is a weird bug that occurs when queuing up games for download that causes the game in question to never finish downloading and unable to be restarted....
In the Pokémon world, Ice-types can be super powerful but just don’t get a fair shake. Funnily enough, it’s almost as though being weak to every-darn-thing ever is bad. Who’d have thought it? Generally, those strong Ice-type attacks are mostly used as coverage (they’re great offensively) rather than as STAB on Ice Pokémon. This doesn’t mean that select critters of this type haven’t shaken up the metagame with their power, speed, utility or a combination of such, though....
Since being introduced to the world back in 1996, Pokémon has gone on to become one of the biggest franchises ever in gaming history. As of 2016, the series has sold over 279 million games over 25 main titles and countless spin-offs. It has gone on to become a mainstay in the gaming world alongside other Nintendo titles such as Mario and The Legend of Zelda. And as with all games, there are certain tricks and tips that will only be gleaned by those who have played from the beginning, as well as easter eggs that only diehard fans would understand....
Your MBTI® can tell you so much about yourself. It can also help you find the next Pokémon game to play by determining which region fits you perfectly! To discover your MBTI® you must take a short personality test which will give out a 4 letter abbreviation. It’s more than your typical personality test, as it delves into your strengths, weaknesses, likes, dislikes, and even your relationships with friends and family....
Pokémon Go may never quite reach the same player counts it had in 2016, but spending hasn’t slowed down one bit. In a new report from intelligence firm Sensor Tower, it has been noted that developer Niantic’s massively popular mobile app has generated around $3.6 billion in revenue since its launch four years ago. That’s a ton of Pokécoins! In Japan last year, Dragon Quest Walk launched and earned an estimated $540 million....
Heatmor is an anteater Pokémon introduced in Generation V. It’s the natural enemy of Durant, both because Durant is an ant and because Heatmor is a Fire-type that can melt Durant’s Steel-type. It can be a little on the rare side in Pokémon Sword & Shield, so we’ll show you where to find it. Where To Find Heatmor In Sword & Shield First off, you should know that Heatmor spawns more frequently in Shield....
9 Head To Ballonlea The Love Ball is an adorable pink and white ball with a heart placed on the front of it. Finding it isn’t too hard though it will take you some time to reach the Love Ball’s location if you’re just starting Sword or Shield. You’ll have to beat the first 4 gym leaders to gain the ability to fight the fifth gym leader, Opal, in Ballonlea. Travel from Stow-on-Side through the almost magical Glimwood Tangle to reach the even more magical Ballonlea, a town full of Fairy-type Pokémon....
Ah, Sinnoh: the land of snow, evil spacemen, and a terrifying Champion. As the northernmost region in the Pokemon world, it makes sense for Sinnoh to be based on Japan’s northernmost island, Hokkaido. Slightly larger than its neighbor Hoenn (based on the Japanese island of Kyushu), Hokkaido is the second-largest island of Japan and the country’s largest prefecture. In Pokemon Diamond & Pearl, players may be able to recall the region’s harsh terrain, especially through the grueling Mt....
The greatest thrill that comes from Pokemon Go is, naturally, coming close to catching them all. Each new creature that gets added to your Pokedex is a cause for celebration, and evolving Pokemon is often the best way to get there. I know what you Pokemon Go players are like. I know you’ve been throwing berries, catching Pokemon, and collecting candies - but that doesn’t guarantee you will have everything you need to complete you Pokedex....
It may be hard to believe it, but it’s actually been four years since Pokemon GO first released in July 2016. In the years since then, the game has evolved, released new featured, and cultivated an amazing community full of devoted fans. One of the surprising constants that has remained in place during those years has been the hard level cap of 40. As a reminder to those who may be unaware, hitting level 40 in Pokemon GO is no easy task....
The launch of Pokemon GO’s fourth generation of creatures has been incredibly well-received and led to players racing around all week to try and catch the 20+ Pokemon included in the first wave. Despite plenty to do in the days following wave 1’s arrival, it seems like the spawns abruptly starting disappearing after yesterday’s Community Day concluded. In the days following Pokemon GO’s Gen 4 launch, the Sinnoh starters and a handful of other creatures from the region were popping up all over the place....
Pokemon GO’s April Community Day may have just wrapped up, but it’s never too soon to dive headfirst into the next event for the mobile AR game. This week, players have another chance to takedown Latios and this time around there should be a shiny variant to collect, as well. So finish organizing your shiny Bagons and get ready for some Legendary Raids. Latios isn’t the most powerful dragon-type in the current Pokemon GO metagame, but it is definitely still an important part of my rosters thanks to its dragon- and physic-type combination....
Pokemon GO’s August Community Day event is just a few days away, which means players have the elusive Pokemon Ralts and its evolutions on the brain. The weekend of August 3, 2019 Pokemon GO players will have three hours to catch as many of the Gen 3 Psychic/Fairy-type as possible and expand their collection with shiny spawns, evolutions, and hopefully a few more surprises. The basic idea of Pokemon GO Community Day is pretty simple: Go out and catch a ton of pokemon for three hours, but this time around things are different....
The annual Pokemon GO Halloween event has arrived, which means players have a ton to do to stay busy in the game between now and early November. In addition to some Special Research to work through and a handful of shiny Pokemon up for grabs, there are also some new spooky Battle Raid bosses that many trainers will be challenging. Mega Gengar is likely the most exciting addition to the Battle Raid boss lineup, but that isn’t the meta relevant Pokemon that players can challenge and encounter this week....
As Pokemon GO continues to make changes and adjustments to keep players engaged in the mobile AR game while they practice safe social distancing protocols, the app is seeing some features that the community thought might never come. In addition to special events that can be completed entirely from home, Niantic is also trying to find ways to keep the Battle Raid metagame alive and well. Battle Raids are a massive part of the Pokemon GO experience and are the primary way that many players catch Legendary creatures....
A number of Pokemon yet to appear in Pokemon Go are featured in the game’s new loading screen. The way in which Pokemon have been added to Pokemon Go since its launch in 2016 is far from straightforward. Rather than add a generation at a time, Niantic has released batches of Pokemon at various times, even skipping to the next generation before completing the last. Towards the end of 2020, it added Pokemon from the Kalos region for the first time, introducing players of the mobile game to gen six....
Pokemon GO and Pokemon Let’s Go players are about to be tempted by a new peripheral that will enhance gameplay for both the mobile and Switch titles. In addition to its other awesome features, the Pokeball Plus also rewards owners with Mew in Pokemon Let’s Go. That may lead to a lot of pre-orders. As it turns out, in addition to purchasing the Pokeball Plus on its own, there is also going to be a version of Pokemon Let’s Go that comes bundled with the device....
Pirates leak and spread the Pokemon Prism ROM hack online despite Nintendo officially shutting down the efforts of the developer behind the mod last week. Like most Nintendo-based fan projects, Pokemon Prism, a game mod of Pokemon Crystal, was shut down just days from its release. however, it is now spreading across the Internet thanks to some good old fashioned piracy. Pokemon Prism is the work of developer Adam “Koolboyman,” who had planned on releasing the mod just before Christmas this year....
Pokemon Unite is running a network test right now which means you can play the game early if you have a Japanese eShop account. After first announcing the game more than a year ago, The Pokemon Company finally revealed when Pokemon Unite will launch this month. The MOBA-inspired Pokemon game arrives on Nintendo Switch in July and mobile later this year. However, you can actually play it right now for a limited time providing you can work your way past a couple of major caveats....
