The game is on Xbox consoles, recently released on the Switch and PS4, and Vigor is currently in development for the PS5.

Console players are starting to worry that online cheating is about to become more prevalent as tech that uses machine learning becomes more popular. Despite the best efforts of various studios, cheaters in online games will never be completely eradicated. Warzone, in particular, is plagued with cheaters, regardless of how many accounts Raven Software continues to clear out. Until now, most of those cheaters are confined to PC play. However, that might well be about to change....

Infinity Ward has temporarily removed all vehicles from Warzone due to a bug that causes everyone’s game to end. Gone are the days when a transaction between a gamer and a developer would come to an end once that gamer had left the store. Nowadays, most games are still a work in-progress even as people are playing them. Even more so for free-to-play titles such as Fortnite and Apex Legends. The games are constantly changing, and also need to be fixed on a very regular basis....

Sniper battles either drag on or end quickly in Call of Duty: Warzone. Almost every Warzone fan has been on one end of a sniper rifle’s deadly scope, be it either dodging incoming fire or taking long range pot shots. Occasionally though, two snipers happen to meet and the ensuing battle becomes a test of speed, skill, and timing. Sniper duels occur frequently in Warzone with two snipers firing and missing multiple times....

A new E3 gameplay demo for Dead Rising 4 reveals a number of over the top weapons and vehicles the series is known for including some returning features as well. Part of the challenge leading up to a massive event like E3 is ensuring that leaks do not happen. For a few games, this proved to be an impossible task thanks to advertising slip ups, and other events that tipped fans off to games like Injustice 2, Watch_Dogs 2, and Dead Rising 4 before companies intended....

One thing we often take for granted in games, until it goes wrong, is saving our progress. There are a handful of ways games go about it, but Watch Dogs: Legion doesn’t make it explicitly clear what your options are for saving. In a game where you might want to make that perfect stealth run through a mission, knowing your options for saving and loading is vital. Unlike the characters you play as in the game, you don’t have to be an elite hacker to know how to save in Watch Dogs: Legion thanks to our guide....

That DLC, the T-Bone Content Bundle provided Watch Dogs 2 players a new Mayhem co-op challenge, a new Grenadier enemy type, T-bone’s signature clothes, and a modded school bus vehicle....

Without a doubt, one of the more attractive cosmetics in Epic Games’ free-to-play title Fortnite Battle Royale is the Galaxy skin, with the only way for one to acquire it at the moment being to play the game on either the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 smartphone or the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 tablet. Before getting the skin, though, some might want to see it in on display in actual gameplay, so thankfully, the pro gamer Tyler “Ninja” Blevins recently hosted a livestream featuring the Galaxy skin in action....

Nintendo might portray itself as the happy and colorful alternative to PlayStation and Xbox, but the company has a history of not playing well with others. It’s why it came as quite a surprise when it started to release games on mobile. Even more of a surprise was when Nintendo released Mario Kart Tour, a mobile-only chapter in what might be its most successful franchise. Great on the surface, but bad news for Switch owners who are expecting to see Mario Kart 9 some time soon....

This article contains minor The Pale Blue Eye spoilers. The Pale Blue Eye stars Christian Bale as retired constable Augustus Landor, who enlists Poe to help chase leads as the perverse murder case brushes against the fringes of occult complicity.

The film is the coming-of-age story of a budding mystery author destined to rewrite the rules....

The Simpsons are tossing something extra in trick or treat bags this year. The show will present audiences with two nightmarish “Treehouse of Horror” installments. One of which features an iconic figure of Halloween: Krusty the Clown from Springfield, USA, stepping in for Stephen King’s Pennywise the Clown from Derry, Maine (and his book It, and its film adaptations). Fans have been rendering both masters of disaster laughter in homemade art, and the Fox animated series decided to supply them with a receptacle....

The video game industry is no stranger to a little bit of controversy. For years, various horrible aspects of society have been blamed on the influence video games have on some of our lives. The teenagers responsible for the Columbine shooting were avid players of Doom and Quake apparently, so naturally, those games were blamed for the heinous crimes they committed. There are an endless number of lawsuits linked to the gaming industry too, most of which are rooted in copyright issues and tend to be pretty boring....

Hunting monsters in any video game is a thrilling experience in itself, which is perhaps why everyone loves Geralt of Rivia. As a witcher, Geralt’s main means of earning income is taking requests to hunt down monsters, brigands, and the like. Obviously, his tasks can differ in many ways —a good example being Emhyr var Emreis hiring Geralt to track down Ciri — but the fact of the matter is that his main bread-and-butter is killing monsters to earn a bit of coin....

It’s hard to paint The Witcher’s world in black and white. After all, that fantasy universe is all about motivations, choices, and consequences. The video game adaptations for The Witcher have more or less captured this spirit for the franchise. The Witcher III: Wild Hunt is no exception. It’s a game that mostly deals with and presents players with morally grey situations where the lines between heroes and villains are blurred....
