[Updated 5/20/2017] The Destiny 2 trailer has now been released, and with it comes the confirmation that the game will indeed be coming to PC. With Destiny 2 officially announced by Bungie and Activision, a new page has shown up on the Destiny website where gamers can pre-order the game for their preferred platform, including PC. Destiny 2 coming to PC isn’t much of a surprise considering it’s been rumored for months now....
Activision Blizzard released various financial highlights from its past quarter, and Destiny 2 already has several worth sharing ahead of its initial September 6 launch. According to Destiny 2’s publisher, the sequel is already tracking well ahead of its predecessor. The Destiny 2 console beta had more players than the Destiny beta in 2014, and pre-orders for Destiny 2 are already above the first game’s. That Destiny 2 is on-track to be successful is hardly surprising, but now might be the time to ask just how much success it’s capable of....
Ever since Stasis arrived in Destiny 2: Beyond Light, the new Darkness-based subclasses have been running wild. Especially in Destiny 2’s PvP game modes, where they immediately became top-tier subclasses and have remained at the top of the heap ever since. Bungie has issued nerf after nerf after nerf trying to bring Stasis back in line with Destiny 2’s other subclasses, but it’s never been enough. However, the upcoming round of Stasis nerfs looks harsh enough to stick....
Although there have been many watershed moments throughout the lifespan of Destiny 2, two stand out for the PvP community. Now, Bungie says it will be rewarding the “survivors” of those events with unique emblems. Previously, Bungie had revealed that players would receive a special Triumph for participating in Crucible during the reign of the Lord of Wolves exotic shotgun. Destiny 2 players that compete in an Iron Banner match between now and July 30th will unlock a Triumph and the Wolves Unleashed emblem....
With Curse of Osiris and season 2 still a few weeks away, Bungie wants to ensure that players still have plenty of new things to do in Destiny 2 for the time being. This past weekend, the first Clarion Call event took place, offering clan members double experience for teaming up across the various available activities. However, it appears that the event was not a complete success as some members of the community reported that the double xp modifier stopped working at various times....
Along with The Dawning live event in December, Destiny will soon allow fans to purchase the exact Ornaments they want through a new kiosk in the Tower. Ornaments were a new feature that came to the game in Destiny: Rise of Iron, adding a layer of customization to exotic weapons and armor. But the only way to get them has been through Radiant Treasure, which players can earn once per week by completing a Heroic Strike....
Destiny’s developer, Bungie, registers a trademark for the term DestinyCon, making some believe that a Bungie and Activision-sponsored convention could be coming in the future. Conventions and expos centered around specific games or developers are nothing new. Blizzcon is a yearly event that draws many fans to see the latest from Blizzard, and Activision hosts a Call of Duty XP event to show off that IP. But a new trademark filing has some believing that a Call of Duty XP type event could be taking place for another of Activision’s big IPs, Destiny....
Those who are expecting Monster Hunter 5 will be waiting a long time, as Capcom has confirmed that it has abandoned numbered entries for the Monster Hunter series. The last numbered entry in the Monster Hunter series was Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate for the Nintendo 3DS. This was followed by Monster Hunter Generations on the 3DS and Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate on the Nintendo Switch, as well as Monster Hunter World on PC, PS4, and Xbox One....
Fans of Harvest Moon, Stardew Valley, and every other farming sim in between have a new “re-imagined” title to look forward to. Coral Island is said to be “inspired by the classics” and offers a modernized take on the mechanics you know and love. Currently, in its Kickstarter phase, Coral Island by Indonesia-based developer Stairway Games is offering a content-filled, coastal experience to soak up. Development for the fresh sim started back in 2019, and the campaign has already surpassed its target of $69,945 (approximately) - one month ahead of its end date....
In a world where science seems to have already done all the hard (and fun) work of discovering just about everything, there still remain a few mysteries. What happens after death, the bottom of the Mariana Trench and the existence of certain cryptids are some of the last vestiges of the unknown that humans have yet to fully map out. Maybe that’s why the world is still so fascinated, perhaps even more so than before, with claims of cryptid sightings....
Iconic design is supposed to be visually striking, and by most accounts the PS5 definitely succeeds at that because it looks like an evolution of the past two PlayStation consoles. However, just because Sony created a futuristic piece of hardware that doesn’t mean modders won’t take the PS5 into PC gaming levels of customization. While PC gamers have countless ways to add RGB lighting to their unique computer layouts, console players have long had to settle with far less extreme modifications, but that doesn’t mean a crafty mind can put a new spin on Sony’s design that still manages to keep, and arguably enhances the Ps5’s imposing presence....
At the end of Ghost Town in Cyberpunk 2077, you’ll be tasked with making the choice of allowing Panam to take revenge on Nash, or asking her to spare him. Both of these options yield different outcomes, with one decision being clearly better than the other one in the long run. If you’re currently stumped as to which Nash choice to make in Cyberpunk 2077, check out our detailed guide on what each decision represents....
It has been awhile since we heard some new details on Cyberpunk 2077, the upcoming dystopian title from CD Projekt Red. We did recently learn that the game will not be an Epic Store exclusive. But, a release date has not been given. That could change in a few months, because Cyberpunk 2077 will indeed be back at E3. Cyberpunk 2077 has been in development for a number of years now....
Fans of the difficult, Lovecraftian inspired Darkest Dungeon were delighted to hear the news last week of Red Hook Studios and Mythic Games partnership to deliver a board game adaptation. Now it seems like players are getting their first look at the board game at Gen-Con 2020. Darkest Dungeon released back in 2016 on PC following an incredibly successful Kickstarter to universal praise. The game combines traditional Roguelite run-based mechanics with new features that players must take into consideration, like the sanity meter....
As is the trend with many open-world titles recently, Days Gone will have no load times, keeping its experience seamless. It is not just the open world that will remain a smooth experience, but many of the interiors in Days Gone will also be fully explorable, allowing players to walk into buildings without a loading screen breaking up the action and hurting the immersion. This is particularly good news for this title, where players will often be seeking refuge from the dangerous world outside, whether it be to take a breather after an encounter with aggressive survivors or to hide from the zombie-like Freakers that populate game....
About a couple of months ago, Hideo Kojima revealed that the development process for his forthcoming game Death Stranding is going a lot faster than normal, with the director having stated that even Sony has been surprised at how quick the turnaround on production has been. Despite this, the concept behind the enigmatic title is still somewhat murky from the public’s standpoint, but that hasn’t stopped the Kojima-san from expanding the cast list, with The Last of Us actor Troy Baker joining the game, as well as Days Gone’s Emily O’Brien....
December is not typically a big month for the gaming industry in terms of new releases or major events. Most of the time, the biggest releases happen in November, with publishers trying to get everything out in time for Black Friday and the holiday shopping rush. However, December is a little different this year, with one December date in particular standing out as especially crowded for gamers. December 10 is set to be one of the biggest days of 2020 for the gaming industry....
We are just over a week away from Destiny: The Taken King’s release, and the hype train has showed no signs of slowing down. Bungie has revealed a great deal about the gameplay changes and new additions to PvP included in the DLC, but has favored a slow burn approach as to where Destiny’s story might go once The Taken King launches. The interstellar FPS/RPG hybrid has faced some criticism regarding its narrative decisions since launch, and gamers who are looking for a more layered and complex approach to the Guardians’ struggle against the Darkness are eagerly awaiting signs of an increased focused on Destiny’s story....
Guardians in Destiny 2 with a knack for building high-damage builds perform best as DPS-oriented Hunters. In Bungie’s hit game, DPS roles come in the form of various Hunter builds, each with its own special take on taking down enemies. Essentially, some Hunter subclasses prefer stalking enemies from others. Meanwhile, other Hunter types love mowing down enemies as soon as they ping their radar. However, despite differences in playstyles, Hunters in Destiny 2 often follow some essential “approaches” to ensure an optimal damage output in firefights....
The Destiny 2 Beta is just three weeks away, and there are a number of small features and changes to the Destiny formula that have changed from Destiny 1 that are worth knowing before going into the beta. Knowing this should help players in the Destiny 2 Beta, especially when it comes to PvP. 6 1. ‘Time To Kill’ is longer Bungie says that the “Time to Kill” (often called TTK in shorthand) is longer, meaning that the PvP of Destiny 2 plays a little bit slower and gives players more time to react to incoming attack....
