Microsoft X018: Here Are The Six Biggest Announcements

Yes, there are similar ones. Battle Royale games have blasted off in the gaming world, many soaring past the popularity heights of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds . I don’t think I need to elaborate on which one that is. Then, some have failed to capture the feeling that the battle royale genre has to offer . Nevertheless, these titles do not come close to the suspenseful and tactical nature that is just oozing out of every crevice of PU


PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, Void Bastards, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, Ori and the Blind Forest, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Thief of Thieves: Season One, Kingdom: Two Crowns, Aftercharge, Supermarket Shriek, Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden, Secret Neighbor, Pathologic 2, The Good Life, Agents of Mayhem, MXGP 3, and Thomas Was Alone are all coming to Xbox Game Pass this holi


Care package plane's volume attenuation curve is now steeper. This means the distance at which the plane can be heard is the same, but the distance at which the plane's maximum sound can be heard has been decre


Fixed an issue where when players leave the vehicle and the vehicle is positioned right next to the window of a building, players would go into the building through the window when getting out off the veh


After a long period of silence , Sumo Digital and Microsoft finally shared more information on Crackdown 3 and its multiplayer mode. We learned that the game will be launching on February 15, and like other first party games will be included with Xbox Game Pass at lau


The menus aren't the only things cluttered in the game. Actually interacting with dressers, tables, and the like can also be frustrating. Let's look at your camp bedside for example. In your space you can sleep, sit, change clothes, interact with pictures and other objects on your nightstand, and shave. All of this is within centimeters of each other and simply turning one direction can change what you can see. Well if you hit the two triggers on PS4, it'll cycle through all available options near you. This saves a lot of t


Prequels, especially ones that center on how villains rise to power and turn from good to bad, Star Wars cough, can be dicey. So again, that had me concerned. Then their first few trailers were story focused, which was kind of mind-boggling to me. What even is this game? A true gameplay trailer didn’t even release until a few months away from this launch and even then I was a bit baffled. So now that it’s out, what do I think? To be blunt, I love it. That said there are some confusing things I wish I knew before I started so here are some helpful tips and just some odd observations for newcomers. Hope this he


In addition to the new map, the patch itself also covers a lot of other ground as far as new items, features, and updates. Specifically, the update includes a new weapon exclusive to the Sanhok map in the QBZ95, a new assault rifle that is meant to take the place of the SCA


While PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has been available for some time, the Battle Royale phenomenon has only continued to grow with new updates and features added regularly, and now the game's next major update will also include its long-awaited next


Red Dead Redemption II has a pretty bleak and confusing opening. I had no idea it was going to start with your gang being stranded in the mountains, deep in cold snow, and on the brink of being wiped out. Aside from the atmosphere, it's also just kind of dull and drawn out. This tempered my excitement for the game and I kept telling myself "this is going to get good" just to keep myself going. It's not the worst opening 2-3 hours of a game, but it was a letdown, to say the le


Previously, grenade damage was greatly dependant on fall damage (from the grenade’s knockback effect) rather than explosion. We’ve removed the grenade’s knockback effect for player characters, and have adjusted it so that only explosion damage is applied when you’re struck by a gren


Yes, you can miss missions. Now that may make sense if your caravan moves to a new area, or if a character, the quest giver, passes away. Those seem obvious, but there was one that didn't seem so obvious. In chapter three, I had two yellow missions as well as a white mission that said Abigail wanted to talk to me. Well when I did one of the yellows, Abigail’s disappeared, which was weird because it seemingly had nothing to do with what I just did. That's just the one I caught. Did I miss more before t


Finally, the Steam Community post from PUBG Missions Corps also detailed that the developer is working on is a region lock-esque system for improving network performance for players in-game. Specifically, the system would only connect players from that region to connect and play, and regions would be invisible to players residing in other regions (excluding players that team up from opposite regio


During X018, we got a closer look at Winnie the Pooh's Hundred Acre Wood world in. The game takes players to several different Disney franchises, including Pirates of the Caribbean, Big Hero 6, Frozen, and Tangled , so Winnie the Pooh's classic world only adds to an impressive lin
