The recent release of Bluepoint Games’ Demon’s Soul remake has quickly become one of the most impressive titles on the PS5. However, as the success with the developer’s remakes like Shadow of the Colossus have been looking good, some players are curious as to when they might see some original content come from the clearly talented studio.

We have the early scoop on where to find the vendor Xur and what exotic armor and weapons he has available to Destiny players for the weekend of January 29th.

Most Destiny 2 players would agree that the current Season of Arrivals has been a strong one, especially coming off the disappointing Season of the Worthy. Even with new content and story to chase which directly impacts the upcoming Beyond Light expansion, the season has also managed to let in a few bugs as well. Certain items and weapons have had to be adjusted due to bugs or oversights and even this past week’s Grandmaster Nightfall featured a God Mode glitch....

Destiny 2 is no stranger to glitches, whether they give players an edge in PvE or ruin the balance of PvP. The latest discovery is a glitch that will give players unlimited hand cannon ammo, but it requires quite a bit of setup.

Destiny is now in a state that many fans would consider to be a content drought. The last live event, The Dawning, has come to an end and there is very little known about what the future of Destiny’s Year 3 holds....

When it was first announced earlier last year, Battlefield 1 surprised many fans by taking the franchise back to the past with World War I rather than continue the trend of being set in the modern era. Not only was the timeline different, but the familiar gadgets and weapons of the modern era were replaced by period specific gear including the C4 replacement, dynamite. Not satisfied with being restrained by history, YouTuber DANNYonPC has come up with a solution, which may make former C4 fans happy....

A big blue mushroom is claimable to all players in Pokémon Sword & Shield, but they will have to act fast, as the free Shiny Amoonguss is only available until tomorrow. Amoonguss is a mushroom Pokémon that debuted in Pokémon Diamond & Pearl. It has generally been a great choice for competitive battles, thanks to its Regenerator Ability and an awesome selection of moves, including the mighty Spore.

The competitive rigor required from competitors in various esports means training in the same manner as an athlete might for a physical sport, but behind a screen rather than out in a field. While the esports industry may be large, however, no level of virtual competition can currently compete with the business infrastructure behind traditional sports. This means that, despite their level of commitment, players sometimes lack sufficient certain resources....

Now, as the next-generation of consoles loom, modern Final Fantasy environmental design has shown two different takes on in-game worlds....
