Mojang Studios has announced that the RTX update for Minecraft on Windows 10 has now left beta, and is available to all users of the Windows 10 version of the game. The RTX features are a collaboration between Mojang Studios and NVIDIA, using the former’s “Render Dragon technology” to allow them to play Minecraft with ray tracing enabled, giving them brightened blocks, emissive pixels, water reflections, more accurate shadows and global illumination, so long as they have a ray-tracing capable GPU....

EA Access members get ready for a double drop next week with Mirror’s Edge Catalyst and UFC 2 arriving in the games vault. Mirror’s Edge 2 will be available from November 9.

EA Access members will be able to enter the Octagon from November 10....

Ever since Pokémon Sword & Shield released, modders have been at work trying to add new elements into the games. For example, one modder was able to add some of the missing Pokémon into Pokémon Sword & Shield, while another modder recently found a way to add Digimon. Now, the same person who added Digimon into Pokémon Sword & Shield has managed to add something far more sinister from The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask....

During the Activision Blizzard first quarter conference call on Monday, little to no news of significance was revealed about the next Call of Duty. We know it’s coming and we know Infinity Ward is working hard to have it done for this fall, but we have to wait until E3 next month for the actual reveal and official confirmation. Until then, the internet will be subject to countless rumors and speculation which began yesterday with a report indicating that the next game will definitely be a continuation of IW’s last game and will be titled Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, reportedly adding larger-scale battles and destructible environments....

Monster Hunter Rise has plenty of materials to farm and obtain but what has left everyone scratching their head is Fucium Ore. Obtaining Fucium Ore in MH Rise is a bit complicated because it can only be obtained in High-Rank content. When you play MH Rise for a few hours, you will find a lot of previous materials less important. Since Fucium Ore is used to upgrading a lot of weapons, and some armor pieces, tons of players have been wondering how and where to farm it in Monster Hunter Rise....

Mortal Engines is a new steampunk science fiction film based on the first of four novels by author Philip Reeve. In the story, a cataclysmic event known as the Sixty Minute War has thrown the Earth into chaos, and centuries later the remnants of humanity have regrouped and now live in cities that roam the blasted landscape on wheels. The bigger “predator” cities have a frightening tendency to consume the smaller ones, absorbing their resources, supplies and populations....

The Mortal Kombat live-action movie isn’t coming out until January 2021, but fans can whet their appetite with an animated MK movie this spring. Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge is an animated feature from Warner Bros., and based on the first trailer, it looks like it will please fans of the ultra-violent fighting game franchise. The Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge trailer doesn’t show much in the way of actual violence, as it cuts away before any blood or guts can be spilled....

After what feels like an eternity of lifelessly drifting in the darkest corners of space, the Dead Space Remake is nearly upon us. It feels almost surreal after the turmoiled history the series went through that ultimately led to EA shutting down the development team, Visceral Games, in 2017 after “disappointing sales numbers” post-Dead Space 3. With the release rapidly approaching, it’s time for some seriously hot takes. If the title of this article caught your eye, this isn’t supposed to be a fire starter or something that’ll anger the masses; it’s a reflection on the colossal mountain of opportunity the revival of Isaac Clarke and the Necromorphs face barring this remake checks off all the boxes....

The next update for Warner Bros.’ brawler MultiVersus is here, and with it has brought the, quite frankly terrifying, gremlin Stripe along with a host of Halloween themed cosmetics. Stripe’s arrival follows that of fellow Gremlins alum Gizmo. Unlike Gizmo, however, Stripe will wield a chainsaw - you know, for those times when you want to go full Ash Williams. Stripe’s standard look is unlockable with either 2000 Gold, one Character Ticket, or 700 Gleamium....

FPS drops and lagging is a common problem in most MMOFPS games and Naraka: Bladepoint is no exception. Online games with intricate graphic textures and PvP interaction on servers require heavy network bandwidth as well as sufficient GPU performance. This makes the game lag if your PC doesn’t meet the recommended system requirements or if you don’t have a stable internet connection. All of this can compromise your FPS and in turn, ruins the gaming experience....

A lot of fans have become familiar with Narcos. The crime series from Netflix depicts the rise of Pablo Escobar, the Medellin Cartel, and the attempts of the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) to curb and, at times, partake in his dealings. The War on Drugs as it was then is a thought-provoking and gripping show, which leads us to this video game adaptation — Narcos: Rise of the Cartels. This is a turn-based strategy title in the vein of X-COM....

2K Sports has announced that basketball sim NBA 2K22 has arrived on Xbox Game Pass this week. The news came as somewhat a surprise, as the game wasn’t mentioned in the usual round up earlier this month. However, previous titles in the series have eventually made it onto the service, with NBA 2K21 arriving in March 2021. NBA 2K22 arrives just in time for the NBA Playoffs in the real world, and Season 6, entitled Zero Gravity for the game’s MyTeam mode....

Criterion’s Need for Speed Hot Pursuit won’t have any story elements slowing down gamers who want to get right into the action come this November.

Pokémon Go will be getting remote raiding, and Niantic has shed a little light on how the new feature will work (via Eurogamer).

In the future, players will be able to drop into any raid that pops up on their map or Nearby view....

Apparently, Nintendo will be forgoing its standard Direct showcase in June, due to complications arising from working from home (via Venture Beat). The report claims that the company has been in touch with partner developers to inform them that the presentation will not be happening. Nintendo uses a Direct to show off its games at the same time as the E3 conferences for developers and publishers. However, E3 2020 has been cancelled, and that may have thrown a wrench in the works of the upcoming Direct....

Nintendo’s secretive NX system must avoid alienating third-party publishers if it is to gain support and stand any chance of success, Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter has said in a column published by SIFTD. “If Nintendo gets the same level of support for NX that it got for the Wii U, it’s doomed before it launches,” explained Pachter. “That’s much, much more important than the price. If they get third-party support, if they make it in such a way that everyone can port every game over and the incremental cost to make if for Xbox One, PS4 and NX is $1-2 million, every game will be there....

Since 2017, the Nintendo Switch has sold 41.67 million units worldwide. In the past three months ending with September, almost five million Switches were sold and a little under two million of these were Switch Lites....
