For Destiny 2’s upcoming Forsaken expansion developer Bungie is trying plenty of new things. From the new approach to weapon slots to the new PvE/PvP Gambit mode, there are going to be a lot of aspects of the expansion that might surprise players. And presumably that will extend to the game’s pinnacle experience, the raid. While we don’t know too much about the raid in Destiny 2: Forsaken, we do know that it will take place in the new endgame area, The Dreaming City....

Destiny 2: Forsaken added a slew of new and returning exotics for players to chase after, including a unique one from The Taken King. Fans will remember The Chaperone, the slug shotgun that made its debut during The Taken King live-action trailer. This sleek weapon is now up for grabs once again, and here is how fans can snag it. Getting the “Holliday Family History” Quest This is perhaps the most annoying part of the quest, as it is completely up to chance for Destiny 2 players to get....

Earlier today Destiny 2 players on Xbox and PC were surprised to find Xur selling the Wavesplitter, a PlayStation 4-exclusive weapon that must stay that way until fall 2019 at the earliest. Still, plenty of Destiny 2 players on Xbox and PC made the most of the mistake and purchased the Wavesplitter before Bungie “fixed” the problem and removed the weapon from Xur’s supply. Shortly after the mistake, Bungie community manager Cosmo posted an update on the official Destiny 2 forum, confirming the mistake and bearing bad news....

Destiny 2 will squash a number of bugs and glitches as well as make some changes to the game’s weapons and abilities for the PC beta debuting later this month. Many of the issues patched in the PC beta were uncovered during the console beta in July, meaning PC beta testers will have an experience that’s closer to the finished game. The following are a number of glitches that have been fixed in Destiny 2 and the PC beta:...

Destiny 2, Bungie’s sci-fi FPS, has often been called a pseudo-MMO for its progression-based multiplayer gameplay and mix of social hubs and open maps. Just like an MMO, Destiny 2 also relies on new updates and events to keep players invested, especially now that it’s entering its third year since release. The latest of these events is the Guardian Games, a competition between the game’s three classes running from April 21st to May 11th....

Players have been making bank off of World of Warcraft since the early days of gold farmers, but the process has been refined significantly as the game has matured. One of the latest schemes for those looking to turn their World of Warcraft prowess into some cash has been dungeon boosting, a process that sees a high-level player guide a lower-level one through some of the game’s toughest dungeons for cash....

Prime Video’s adaptation of William Gibson’s mind-bending 2014 novel, The Peripheral, has been a long time in the making, and showrunner Scott B. Smith likely needed every last minute of that time to translate the complex but heartfelt story for the small screen. The Peripheral follows Flynne Fisher (Chloë Grace Moretz), a woman in a dead-end tech career who uses a strange headset to escape into an otherworldly, futuristic metropolitan London....

Christopher Nolan is by all accounts a cinema purist. The director is never shy of expressing his hard-line views on matters such as art direction, sound, business, and what the entire movie experience means to him. Tom Shone’s book “The Nolan Variations” does a great job at exposing this given it’s a firsthand account on the director’s personal thoughts. Recently, Nolan has voiced his concerns over the film industry’s current state, taking his latest movie Tenet as a prime example of what the box-office landscape could look like for future blockbusters....

EA is bringing a 4K remaster to Command & Conquer and Red Alert with the help of former Westwood Studios developers. If there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that remasters are sweet. Rather than having to go through all the rigamarole of trying to find your old CDs, an optical drive to read them, and then try to get a 23-year-old game to work on modern hardware and software, you can just wait for the big studios to make a remaster that does all that heavy lifting for you....

A community poll targeted at people who have bought Cyberpunk 2077 suggests as many as two million players have requested refunds. CD Projekt Red has been quick to boast that despite the game’s misgivings, Cyberpunk 2077 shifted 13 million copies in its first month. However, there has been no official word on how many of those copies have been returned for refunds. YouTube’s Upper Echelon Gamers tried to get a ballpark figure by polling the Cyberpunk community....

In an effort to get people to stay indoors during this self-isolation period, Creative Assembly will be giving out Total War: Shogun 2 on Steam next week. Starting on May 27 and running until May 1, you’ll be able to grab the base game for your account to keep forever. This is quite a good offer as Shogun 2 is one of the better Total War games. In a post on the official Total War blog, Creative Assembly explains, “The past few weeks have presented unimaginable challenges for many of us, but the remarkable collective effort being made by the global community to overcome this moment of adversity has been truly inspirational....

Players stuck inside across the world are diving deep into all the worlds and escapes that games have to offer. Some of the deepest dives are into very long strategy games with political intrigue, plots, and medieval armies. There is arguably no game that makes a player feel more like they’re in Game of Thrones than Crusader Kings 2. Crusader Kings 2 is one of several deep, almost all-consuming strategy games from Paradox Interactive....

Night City, the sprawling metropolis in which Cyberpunk 2077 takes place, is home to eight different gangs - all jostling for power. Among those gangs there’s the Voodoo Boys, a group of Haitian hackers, there’s the Valentinos, a collection of Mexican gangbangers, and there’s the Tyger Claws, who are the game’s take on the Triad. The Voodoo Boys are portrayed as a gang of mystics. They’re Netrunners - master hackers - who many believe to be a myth because of how elusive they are....

CD Projekt Red has released a number of in-depth looks at familiar faces to the Cyberpunk 2077 universe with full-body shots, and they’re pretty rad. While the wait continues for the delayed release date of Cyberpunk 2077, CD Projekt Red has been busy teasing a lot of content for the upcoming open-world title. From character reveals to high-res shots of bougie districts, it’s sure to get fans hyped up for Cyberpunk 2077 as they wait patiently....

Cyberpunk 2077 was first announced 8 long years ago, and that sort of development time has been a death kneel for many games. That cannot be said about CD Projekt Red’s latest, though. The developer has a reputation for taking its time and shipping high-quality games like The Witcher 3, so the time frame here does quite the opposite and builds anticipation. Cyberpunk 2077 is easily one of the more hotly anticipated games of the year, but there’s another aspect of the industry many fans are looking forward to this year: next-gen consoles....

There is still a lot of mystery surrounding the allegiance between the killers of Dead By Daylight and the Entity that governs the Realm that all of the characters have found themselves in. While most killers have blank stares and intentions that are just as hazy as the fog, it’s a bit surprising to see that they were once human before they went on their killing sprees. Some tragic, some sadistic, the backgrounds of each of the killers in Dead By Daylight are quite detailed....

With Bluepoint Games’ Demon’s Souls remake launching side by side with the PS5 on November 12th, fans can’t help but speculate on the future of Souls games as a whole. Though it was once thought to be the next thing coming from that studio, the complete lack of Elden Ring news has led many to believe that the title is much farther away than most initially thought. That doesn’t leave fans with many options, so although it may seem unlikely, a Demon’s Souls sequel developed by either FromSoftware seems like it could be a real possibility....

There is not a ton of content to go through when it comes to the Destiny 2 beta, and if players are looking to just play through everything once or a handful of times, it won’t take long to be satisfied. But many Destiny fans have taken to exploring as much as they can within what little of Destiny 2 is available The key area in which to explore is within The Inverted Spire strike, which begins in a public area of the new planet called Nessus....

Since it’s successful beta period this past weekend, Bungie has been upping the ante with pre-order bonuses for Destiny 2. Just for plopping down some cash, fans are able to get all sorts of in-game goodies from new ghosts, emotes, and even a new exotic trace rifle. With a name like Coldheart and what appears to be a blue beam of light emitted out of the weapon, many folks have started to assume this weapon features a brand new element type within the game....
