Quick Links The early game ofArk: Survival Ascendedis filled with dangerous creatures that you have to stay away from. However, as you tame better dinosaurs, you’ll slowly stop being as afraid of these creatures and start focusing on late-game content like defeating bosses or building your base of operations. Making yourself a big house is one of the best things to do in a survival game, but it’s not an easy task due to the high cost of structures in this game....

Quick Links InFortnite:Chapter 5 Season 1, a new weapon workbench has completely shifted the way weapons work in the game.

Quick Links Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3(2023) has made some small yet meaningful changes to the weapon meta. This game’s selection of new Gunsmith attachments has made it easier than ever to make aggressive CQC builds, hipfire builds, and other off-meta options that simply weren’t possible in MW2.

After a couple years mithering over what it means forMagic: The Gathering, the Universes Beyond crossover series has finally won me over. Pretty much every release we’ve seen as part of UB has been amazing, from the massive sets like The Lord of the Rings and Doctor Who, to the smaller team-ups like Fortnite and Jurassic World. There’s even more on the horizon, with Final Fantasy, Fallout, and Marvel all joining in on the fun over the next two years....

I don’t have much affection forMortal Kombat 1. It’s the newest entry in the series that hooked me on fighters, with a cast I adore and mechanics that are welcoming to little scrubs like me. But the story is a half-bakedMCUrip-off, the post-launch content has been egregious given the base game’s price tag, and the single-player offerings have been boring at best, and exhausting at worst. Once upon a time, we had the Towers and the Krypt....

Quick Links TheAssassin’s Creedgames cover plenty of settings and time periods that constantly reference one another, particularly when one entry is set after another. While we’re used to this sort of thing,Miragedoes things a bit differently, since Mirage andValhallaaren’t that far apart. They’re so close, in fact that Basim, the main character from Mirage, appeared on Valhalla’s campaign. Considering the events of that game, some players are confused as to how Basim is a protagonist of his own tale....

Quick Links The long and sometimes winding story behind theKingdom Heartsgames can sometimes feel like an insurmountable tale to grasp. With all sorts of Disney, Final Fantasy, and original characters spread across more than a dozen games from various console generations, keeping the events of the game in order can be a bit of a hurdle for players. One of the most convoluted reveals from across the Kingdom Hearts series was the build-up and reveal of a surprisingly vital character, Luxu....

It’s been a rough year for the games industry. Even though we’ve been playing quality titles almost constantly throughout 2023, the people that made them are being laid off, treated poorly, or having their studios shut down completely. Developers are constantly in fear of losing their livelihoods, as not even a game as successful as Baldur’s Gate 3stopped Hasbro from laying off 1,100 people. It’s been so bad this past few years that even the people behind the most successful games of 2023 are no longer working for the companies benefiting from their creative work....

It wasn’t all that long ago that advent calendars were little more than boxes of chocolate, a small sweet treat behind each door. They then evolved to include more food and drink options when adult versions crammed with cheese and beer started to become popular, and now you may get an advent calendar with pretty much anything inside. Not just food and drink, butFunko Popsand evenSquishmallows. OrLegoscenes that you build throughout December, some of which areavailable for less right now at Walmart....
