Crackdown 3 is also receiving a 5v5 multiplayer mode called Wrecking Zone that takes advantage of Microsoft's Azure technology for mass destruction across two maps at launch. After a tumultuous development process, it's great to finally see the game so close to finally shipping. The original Crackdown will also soon be available via Xbox Backwards Compatibility, so series fans should be satisfied over the next few mon

In addition to the new skins system in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds that will provide players some flexibility in customizing their characters' appearance, the update also introduces some new options for earning cosmetic items through the Triumph and Raider crates.

Horses are your main mode of transportation, duh. As such these majestic beasts actually level up. The more you ride them, groom them, and feed them, the better bond you will have, which will then increase stats. There are also abilities gained with leveling up like being able to dr

Microsoft shocked everyone back at E3 2018 when they revealed that they had acquired Playground Games, Undead Labs, Ninja Theory, The Initiative, and Compulsion Games , but they were still able to add two more studios to that lineup today: inXile Entertainment and Obsidian Entertainm

Whenever there are less than ten other players left in the round, oh boy, it’s a ride. Crawling through the thick grass in complete silence not knowing whether someone is right next to you causes my hands to sweat. I legitimately get nervous and my hands begin to tremble each time because I get filled with so much anxiety. Even the best players can’t just run around all willy nilly. If you are caught in the open, most of the times that's it. You're done for. The last five minutes of a round in PUBG are some of the most stressful and suspenseful moments I have ever experienced in a game. However, the payoff of a chicken dinner also is one of the most rewarding feelings I ever f

Another mechanic the game tries to hammer home to you that isn't as important as it seems is dialogue choices. You can greet people and it will raise your honor, which is useful if you want to get discounts in shops. That's about

This is on a horse-by-horse basis, which is to say if your horse gets destroyed, you have to start from scratch with a new one. The Horse Reviver potion will, fortunately, resurrect your horse. It's expensive, but worth having aro

Red Dead Redemption II has a pretty bleak and confusing opening. I had no idea it was going to start with your gang being stranded in the mountains, deep in cold snow, and on the brink of being wiped out. Aside from the atmosphere, it's also just kind of dull and drawn out. This tempered my excitement for the Project arc game and I kept telling myself "this is going to get good" just to keep myself going. It's not the worst opening 2-3 hours of a game, but it was a letdown, to say the le

While PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has been available for some time, the Battle Royale phenomenon has only continued to grow with new updates and features added regularly, and now the game's next major update will also include its long-awaited next

Red Dead Redemption II was both my most anticipated game of 2018 and also the one I was most wary of. I was a huge fan of the first game, which came out all the way back in 2010. It was the series I dreamed of Rockstar revisiting once again, but was always let down time and time again. Sometimes when we get our dreams and wishes granted, they end up being disappointing. There was a lot that could have gone wrong with this sequel and the first few showings didn’t have me exactly thrilled. The biggest reveal was that it was a prequel and not about a new group of people. That is to say, we were going to find out what John Marston’s life was like in the height of the Van der Linde gang. Yet we weren’t going to play John, but someone completely new that was never mentioned in the first g
