Bugs in League of Legends aren’t uncommon. The MOBA’s routine patches and content updates, nevermind its precarious competitive balance, make it susceptible to unintentional errors and exploits. The latest example is an exploit related to one of League of Legends’ newest champions, Viego. The issue at hand has the potential to make Viego into an extremely powerful enemy that’s impossible for opposing players to counter. Suffice to say, a hotfix from Riot Games is likely already in the works....

Many would argue that Fortnite was the Battle Royale game to really set to formula for being free to play and selling microtransactions. In addition to various cosmetic items and skins, the game quickly adopted a seasonal battle pass system back in 2017 allowing players to earn even more stuff just for playing after purchasing it. It’s a model that other rival games like Apex Legends and Call of Duty: Warzone have closely followed to much success of their own....

It’s quite easy to get wrapped up in the magnificence of Legendary Pokemon. Their captivating, grand designs and their long rich mythology have occupied the minds of many trainers over the years, many hoping to have such a creature for themselves. But really, let’s not forget what really makes them so great: their unrivaled power. Legendaries often have stats that no regular Pokemon can compete with, which is why they have their own category when it comes to competitive play....

Xbox All Access users may be in luck if they didn’t get an Xbox Series X/S while using the service. Many people were frustrated by the chaotic Xbox pre-order experience that resulted in a lot of would-be buyers ending up unable to get their hands on a sale. The PS5 pre-orders were confusing to many and resulted in a lot of glitchy retailer pages, and while Microsoft initially made light of Sony’s experience with a tweeted meme, the Xbox Series X had similarly fraught pre-orders....

The majority of gamers will only be able to see and play the finished product of their favorite games, with prototypes often being lost or barred from public viewing.

There are many out there who look to find and archive pieces of lost media, with the Sonic the Hedgehog magazine prototype build being a famous one....

The most recently released Magic: The Gathering set, Commander Legends was designed around the largely popular Commander Format. Bringing back fan-favorite mechanics such as partner and “the monarch,” Commander Legends is giving commander players numerous powerful new tools to slot into their decks. While many cards in this set will likely become mainstays in the Commander format, the set even contains potent cards that will surely find their homes in eternal formats like Legacy and Vintage....

Since they created Until Dawn, Supermassive Games have been experimenting with interactive storytelling. Their latest project, The Dark Pictures Anthology series, is essentially the closest thing the gaming world has gotten to its own version of The Twilight Zone. The first episode, Man Of Medan, had some good moments even if it was a bit janky, which has made gamers excited for their next spooktacular adventure, Little Hope. Up until now, we haven’t had a whole lot of info on Little Hope beyond the teaser at the end of Man Of Medan which seemed to imply that some attractive young adults were about to run afoul of some witches....

Mass Effect features a universe full of memorable alien races, with the Krogans being among the most popular species in the entire franchise. While Urdnot Wrex is undoubtedly the most famous Krogan ally that can be recruited in the games, one cosplayer has shown some love for another Krogan ally in Mass Effect: Shepherd’s youthful companion Grunt. Grunt first appears in Mass Effect 2, one of the games that will be included in the Legendary Edition of the beloved Mass Effect trilogy....

The finale of Lovecraft Country landed last night with a roar marking a closer to one of the most exciting, intelligent horror series around. As well as the characters, the settings, the history, politics and winding plot some of the biggest delights of the show are the monsters and monstrous effects within the show. UK FX house Framestore worked across the whole of the show in different capacities, including creating early concept art of some of the show’s key episodes....

This Messiah review contains no spoilers. The past couple of years in pop culture have been filled to the brim with scammers and false idols, with everything from fake social media influencers and CEOs, to Russian disinformation campaigns, GoFundMe rip-offs, and whatever you want to call a whole lot of members of the current presidential administration. So, in way, it feels like we’ve maybe always been headed toward a show like Netflix’s Messiah, which asks an age-old question in a very modern way, mixing religious themes and questions with modern elements like social media, deep fake videos and conspiracy theories....

Up until the new millennium, cinematic crossovers were largely the preserve of Abbott and Costello or Godzilla. But that all changed in 2003 with the arrival of Freddy Vs. Jason. The Nightmare on Elm Street/Friday the 13th mashup had been 16 agonizing years in the making. New Line Cinema shelled out a reported $6 million on script development alone with as many as 16 different writers taking a stab at the concept....

Farming and raising livestock may seem like something more closely associated with a game like Stardew Valley, but it also happens to be a key part of the overall Minecraft experience. Between resource gathering and building a sustainable home base, investing in a farm, ranch, or livestock area can be a worthy investment. Builders who are looking to start this journey should understand a few things before they begin. A few simple tips and tricks could help these players avoid the possibility of having to tear it down and build it a second time....

It’s been almost four years since Markus “Notch” Persson created his own universe - a world called Minecraft, which is currently populated by millions of gamers, a whole lot of Creepers and - when the next major update arrives - wandering herds of horses. But Notch’s influence extends far beyond the world of Minecraft. In fact, according to readers of Time magazine, he’s currently the second most influential person in the world, ranked above K-pop sensation Psy, Barack Obama, Pope Francis and Neil Gaiman....

There’s a new way to play Minecraft Dungeons and it’s definitely not what you think. Mojang Studios has partnered with arcade cabinet pros, Play Mechanix, to build an arcade version of the dungeon crawler, titled Minecraft Dungeons Arcade. It’s a pretty cool looking arcade cabinet too, featuring a giant screen and four panels for you and three others to go dungeon diving in the blockiest of worlds. While Minecraft Dungeons Arcade is pretty similar to the version you’ve played, there are some new features which could only be made available due to the nature of arcade cabinets....

There are many elements that can make a good game into a great game, and a strong, emotional soundtrack is one of them. Music has the power to add intrigue and mystery, or horror and suspense. It can transform a simple moment in a game into an emotional rollercoaster that won’t be easily forgotten by players. So it’s no wonder that video game studios are continually on the hunt for high-quality composers who truly understand how to enrich a game with the right sounds and music....

For the geriatric, living out their golden years in peace and quiet is a place in life that many hope to reach. That life is possible in the upcoming title Just Die Already, but it will just come with a bloodbath of epic proportions. Looking similar in design to something like Guts & Glory, Just Die Already is a game from the Ibrisagic’s DoubleMoose development team that focuses on the brutal side of being an old person trying to get into the World’s Nicest Retirement Home....

According to a recent job posting at Ghost Story Games - the studio led by BioShock creator’s Ken Levine - whatever game they’ve been working on has finally entered into its later production stage. Ghost Story Games was formed by Ken Levine and few co-workers after they closed down Irrational Games back in 2014, shortly after its third BioShock game - BioShock Infinite - was done and dusted. We’re working on a new immersive sci-fi game with RPG elements....
