When Pokémon Sword and Shield released, it added a slew of new regional variants with certain Pokémon getting a Galarian makeover. One of those Pokémon was Meowth, which was surprising to many fans as Meowth had already received an Alolan regional variant in the previous titles, Pokémon Sun and Moon. The original Kantonian Meowth from generation one is very different from the newer Galarian Meowth, leaving fans with the question of - which is better?...

Pokemon GO players who are itching for the next event only need to wait a few more hours! As many fans were expected, Niantic announced yet another Eggstravaganza event to span the final weeks of March and into early April. That should help keep everyone busy both before and after the upcoming Community Day. The upcoming Pokemon GO event starts tomorrow and will offer players a lot of extra motivation to get out, collect eggs, and hatch as many as possible....

It says something when gamers are still fascinated by a game that came out in 1998, but that just tells you how good Pokémon Red & Blue were as games. Sure they’re incredibly dated by today’s standards, but in their prime they were a stunning example of what gaming could be. But for all the obsession, even more than 20 years later, there are some secrets in this game that some fans may not be aware of....

Much like Spearow, Rufflet is a flying/normal type pokémon with a passion for picking fights. It’s once Rufflet finally outgrows its fuzzy down feathers that the eaglet learns how to really pack a punch, though. Don’t underestimate Braviary for its common typing: in the right hands, this ferocious flyer can move mountains (or at least take out a few rock type pokémon). If you want one of your own, here’s how to find them in Pokémon Sword and Shield....

Grass-type Pokémon are one of the three most iconic types in the franchise. Most players remember them fondly because they’re one of the three starter types and they are easily and regularly found within the wild in the Pokémon world. This list should definitely make some fans of Grass-type Pokémon nostalgic! This list will show fans of the franchise some of the best Grass-type fanart out there that will make them tear up with nostalgia....

With the end of the Water Festival event and the release of of 7km Eggs, Pokemon GO players may have lost track of what to expect when hatching Eggs at this point. The list of what is and isn’t available in Eggs has shifted around a lot in the last few weeks, but luckily we can help clear up some of the confusion. The end of the Pokemon GO Water Festival has removed a few water-types from the list and moved a few remaining water-types out of the 2km slot and back to their usual rarity....

Pokemon GO’s newest event is the Team GO Rocket Celebration Event, causing players to meet members of this villainous team far more often in-game. Among all of the weak grunts, players will also be encountering the various leaders of Team GO Rocket. Sierra, like the other Team GO Rocket Leaders in Pokemon GO, can be quite the challenge for unprepared trainers. Unlike the less experienced grunts, Sierra uses far more powerful Pokemon and can take advantage of Protect Shields just like players....

Pokemon GO’s Season of Celebration is a thing of the past and it’s now time for the Season of Legends to get into full swing. A few weeks into the new season activities are starting to pick up and fans are able to take advantage of new spawns, Egg hatches, Battle Raid bosses, and even event exclusive research and rewards. The Searching for Legends event is up next and players will have a five-part event research storyline to work through....

The Pokemon Company CEO Tsunekazu Ishihara offers an update for fans waiting on the anticipated player-versus-player battling feature in the popular Pokemon GO. It’s safe to say that when people saw the impressive reveal trailer for Pokemon GO, many of them were expecting a more fully-featured product upon release. So far, there are numerous features shown in the reveal trailer that have yet to make it to the actual game, such as Pokemon trading and player-versus-player battling....

Metal Slug, the side-scrolling 2D shooter franchise, is coming back in a big way in 2020. Not only is SNK working on a new Metal Slug title for release this year, but now an entirely new game named Metal Slug Code: J has been announced for mobile devices. More information about Metal Slug Code: J’s release should be coming soon. Metal Slug Code: J is being developed by Tencent subsidiary TiMi Studios....

Despite being Capcom’s flagship series, Street Fighter V has never quite been able to shake the reputation of its shaky launch. Rushed out to release in 2016 to coincide with the Capcom Pro Tour, numerous seasons of DLC and additional modes haven’t done much to alter the perception around the game. It felt sloppy on launch and is still a far cry from being the definitive Street Fighter experience. A similar matter happened with Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid last year....

One PS5 owner decided to forgo playing their console, at least for the long haul, and instead dumped it through an industrial shredder. The PS5 might well be the most sought after piece of hardware on the planet right now, and also the most difficult to come by. From the moment the console’s pre-orders went live back in September, gamers around the world have been clamoring to make sure they get a PS5 as soon as they possibly can....

It wasn’t long ago that PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds was all anyone would talk about when it came to battle royale. While the once user-mod, now full-fledged game is the pioneer of the genre, many developers put their own spin on battle royale, and as a result PUBG’s playerbase dwindled considerably. The downward trend, however, has been halted for the time being. PlayerUnknown’s Battleground is seeing an upward trend in concurrent players for the first time in nearly 10 months, returning to the 1 million concurrent players mark....

This Manifest article contains spoilers. Manifest is no stranger to unanswered questions. In fact, some might say its main appeal (or its greatest flaw) was the never-ending mystery of why the passengers of Flight 828 experienced prophetic callings after jumping forward five years mid-flight. After three seasons, it seemed viewers might never know the true meaning behind it all, and now with NBC’s cancellation of the sci-fi drama (and Netflix’s refusal to pick it up), it’s an unfortunate certainty that fans will be left in the dark forever....

Ubisoft gave an update on Rainbow Six Siege during today’s Ubisoft Forward Broadcast. The presentation revealed that the game is coming to next-gen consoles with big plans, but for now hyped up the current competitive season. It also showed off Splinter Cell’s Sam Fisher return in an animated trailer to kick off his addition to Siege’s roster. After the event, Ubisoft revealed that Rainbow Six Siege’s PS5 and Xbox Series X versions will come as free upgrades to current owners who buy the same family of console....

After the critical and continued commercial success of Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption 2, the game is finally gearing up for its highly anticipated beta for Red Dead Online. While a slice of the audience still has a few days to wrap up the game’s massive story before everyone is able to jump into the testing period, there have been some new findings that seem to allude to Rockstar being the latest developer to contribute to the battle royale craze....

Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption 2 has continued to draw in new fans since its release in 2018, which is partly due to the ever-growing fanbase of Red Dead Online that followed the game’s original release. However, the game’s ongoing popularity is also due to the plethora of activities available to truly immerse players into the life of an outlaw in the Old West. Much like the first game in the franchise, part of that outlaw life is the ability to hunt down and capture bounties for the sheriff’s offices that protect RDR2’s various towns and settlements....

Veteran esports host and commentator Paul “Redeye” Chaloner has decided to step away from the esports industry amid allegations of abuse, the 48-year-old revealed on Twitter today. Redeye has been working on esports broadcasts since 2002, making him one of the most experienced veterans in the industry. The accusations came to light on June 27th, when fellow CS:GO host and interviewer James Banks released a Google Document detailing Chaloner’s alleged abuse and blackmail....

CES this year was perhaps not coincidentally very focused on providing technologies that could assist with the pandemic. Pretty much everything shown at CES 2021 had the tag-line “antimicrobial” even if it was something as innocuous as a desk lamp. Masks were another big deal too, and Razer decided to show up everyone by making the world’s ultimate pandemic mask. Called Project Hazel, this N95-compliant mask was made of clear, form-fitting plastic for a tight seal around the mouth and nose that still lets you see the other person’s mouth....

A report suggests that one in three piracy sites contain malware, with distribution of the malicious content estimated to be worth $70 million dollars a year. The issue of piracy in the internet age is a hotly-contested subject within the online community. With the level of video game piracy much higher than publishers and developers would expect, some have even taken creative steps to get their point across about the damage that piracy can do....
