Modder KangieDanie has uploaded a splitscreen multipawer - sorry, multiplayer - mod for PC that lets you play through the campaign in local co-op. KangieDanie notes that the mod is in very early development so if you decide to give it a try, you’re inevitably going to run into some bugs. Adding another player is as simple as pressing F9, but currently there isn’t a method mentioned to remove players....
Glukhovsky wrote on Telegram that he had been accused of discrediting the Russian Army, stemming from an Instagram post in March where he protested the Ukraine war, according to Radio Free Europe. “I am ready to reiterate again what I said before: ‘Stop the War!’” he said. A Russian law imposed in March criminalised any criticism or independent reporting on the Ukraine war, including calling it a “war” or “invasion” instead of a “special military operation”....
The Metroid series has always been popular with the speedrunning community who regularly find sequence breaks to force their way through the game that little bit quicker. However, speedrunning records for Metroid Dread have avoided a popular sequence break to kill the towering boss Kraid using the morph ball bomb. The time it would take to collect that item early would be a net loss in the overall time. The site speedrun....
Will Call of Duty be an Xbox console exclusive? Is this predominantly a play for mobile, given King’s presence in Activision’s stable and Microsoft’s absence in that space? When’s Singularity hitting Games Pass? Does this mean we might finally be getting a new DJ Hero?!?! Who knows, frankly, for today’s announcement, delivered in the dead prose that’s had all life and most meaning sucked dry as it’s passed the desk of a dozen lawyers before being pushed live, was thin on details....
A selection of OG Xbox titles are also cheap, including Max Payne, Red Faction 2 and TimeSplitters 2. Last night, I paid just £4.18 for both TimeSplitters 2 and TimeSplitters: Future Perfect, and re-awakened long-lost memories of some of its maps. Yes, it turns out, I still know the Siberia dam level by heart. Next up, I have my eye on Burnout Revenge, which is currently £5. It’s not Burnout 3, true, but I always found its experimental addition of traffic-checking made it stand on its own as a worthy entry....
To celebrate the immense milestone, YouTube has launched a new website highlighting the creators and videos that helped Minecraft reach 1,000,000,000,000 views over the last decade - a figure that would, as YouTube points out to put it into some kind of perspective, amount to over 30,000 years if each view equated to just one second of time. It’s a fascinating record of Minecraft’s YouTube history, shining a spotlight on the videos that have made the biggest impact over the game’s lifespan....
Since weapon unlocks have changed this time in Modern Warfare 2, and require investment with several specific weapons, you’ll want to know the best weapons to be hunting, levelling and customising to arm yourself with the most efficient playstyles. In this page, we’ll be going over the best guns in MW2 across every class - with a few recommendations available depending on your unlock progress.. On this page: What is the current meta and best guns in Modern Warfare 2 at launch?...
Fortnite has played host to countless Marvel characters before, of course, typically timed around their appearances on the big screen or TV shows (the current battle pass includes Doctor Strange, while we were treated to Hawkeye and Kate Bishop late last year). Moon Knight’s rather fetching skin includes a style with/without his cloak, and an additional style for his Mr. Knight persona. (We won’t get into story details here, in case you’re yet to start the new series....
Nowadays, the hustle and bustle of the PSVR storefront is long gone and decent new releases, hell, even bad to medium releases, are few and far between. Due to the minimal longevity of VR games in general and this drip-feeding of new experiences, it’s a safe bet to say that a lot of people’s PSVR headsets have been gathering dust for a while. I know mine certainly has. Chances are this drought of games is due to the impending release of the PSVR 2....
Fighters from Looney Tunes, Scooby-Doo, DC and Adventure Time have featured so far, and there’s much more where they came from. As the months roll on, MultiVersus is set to get more fighters via DLC, each with a specific play style and moveset. So far, only a few have been officially confirmed, but there are also various leaks pointing to possible new fighters. On this page: MultiVersus Rick release time: When is Rick coming to MultiVersus?...
The Torchbearer Code system in Naraka Bladepoint has always been a little confusing, and with new servers getting added with the Xbox launch, it’s easy to put in the wrong code and get an ‘invalid code’ or ‘wrong server’ message. To help clear up some confusion, we’ll go over how to redeem an Invite Code in Naraka Bladepoint on both PC and Xbox below. On this page: Naraka Bladepoint Invite Code explained As Naraka Bladepoint runs on different servers for Xbox and PC players, using an Invite Code from a PC player isn’t going to work if you’re playing on Xbox, and vice versa....
Necromunda: Hired Gun is a first-person shooter due out 1st June 2021 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The debut trailer is below: Necromunda: Hired Gun is described as “fast-paced and brutal”. You can wall-run, double-jump, use a grappling hook and upgrade yourself - even your brain and your pet dog. Speaking of your dog, it’s a half-dog, half-robot companion who will kill for you in exchange for treats....
Edgerunners, which was announced back in June 2020, is a 10-episode collaboration between Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt and Japanese animation studio Trigger, which has previously worked on the likes of Little Witch Academia and Kill la Kill. It tells the story of a street kid trying to survive in the technology and body modification obsessed Night City. “Having everything to lose,” explains Netflix, “he stays alive by becoming an Edgerunner - a mercenary outlaw also known as a cyberpunk....
Manaphy can appear in two different locations in the Reef (Evening) course depending on the actions you take, which helps you take a range of photographs. When it comes to Manaphy, your priorities will most likely be either completing the Myth of the Sea LenTalk Request and taking a four star Manaphy photo. On this page: Once you’ve unlocked Reef (Evening), you will need to reach Research Level 2 on this particular course....
According to the New York Times, the current ten-year agreement between EA and FIFA comes to an end in 2022, and negotiations to extend that deal are due to conclude this year. However, “at least two years of talks” are said to have now stalled as the two parties struggle to agree on specifics, with FIFA wanting to increase the cost of its licence to “more than $1 billion for each four-year World Cup cycle” - perhaps eager to capitalise on the exponential growth of Ultimate Team, which made EA $1....
The result is Pikmin Bloom, a charming mix of light strategy, collecting and exploration over your local area. As you might expect from Niantic, this is another game which encourages you to get off your sofa and wander the real world, played on your smartphone. But there are some surprises, too. There’s much less Pokémon Go in Pikmin Bloom than you might expect, plus plenty of personality from your little Pikmin friends as they scurry in groups over your neighbourhood, or eagerly run over to you when whistled for a drop of nectar to slurp....
It’s not all bad news, however. Switch game sales remain brisk, with more games sold to consumers year-on-year and a solid start for Nintendo Switch Sports (which has now notched up 4.84m copies). Nintendo highlighted several other first-party games to have sold well over the past three months: Mario Strikers Battle League shifted 1.91m copies, while Kirby and the Forgotten Land sold another 1.88m, taking it to a total of 4....
The long-requested feature improves on the Switch’s rather basic methods for finding games and other content - which otherwise have barely changed since the console’s launch. Nintendo Switch system software update 14.0.0, released today, now lets you create up to 100 groups, which can each contain up to 200 titles. This method of organising titles lets you tag games into multiple groups - so you could have Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in both a “Mario” group and a “Party games” group....
That’s according to a Bloomberg report, which cites sources aware that Samsung will provide its screens and begin production on those from June. Nintendo’s plan is to reveal the new Switch model this year with an eye to launch in time for the lucrative holiday season, the report concludes, though no firmer release window is given. The current Switch offers a 6.2 inch screen, while the Switch Lite’s screen is 5....
No injuries have been reported. The Goomba statue broke free from its normal position atop the Yoshi’s Adventure ride, Asahi Shumbun Digital reported (thanks, VGC). The Goombas fell just next to the ride’s track, close to where a Yoshi car was passing by, but not directly onto anywhere guests could have been. Video of the incident’s aftermath, below, shows a crowd of Nintendo World employees struggling to drag the Goombas away into the underground portion of Yoshi’s Adventure, and out of sight....
