Already, the Icon Series includes a diverse group, from singer Ariana Grande to professional Fortnite player, Bugha.

Dragon’s Prophet content update with exciting new mountain region Dragon riders and players of the fantasy MMORPG Dragon’s Prophet are now confronted with a great new quest: The new content patch marks the unveiling of the mountainous region of Porthis. Due to the steep, inhospitable terrain, the region’s major settlements are restricted to the plateaus, which are inhabited by humans as well as treants, a legendary tree people allied with the Kurians....

Fortnite’s new patch brings along with it a new app/feature called Party Hub. The new addition to the Fortnite set-up could well change the way we play the game with others. You might not want to admit it, but Fortnite is very much in the business of revolutionizing the gaming industry. There’s a reason more than ten million of us play it, and also why we watched more than 80 million hours of its first-ever World Cup....

The gaming industry is no stranger to fan merchandise, and the Gears of War series has been one to use that to its advantage. As such, toy manufacturer Storm Collectibles will soon be debuting two new figurines from recent entries in the Gears of War series. In collaboration with Gears of War developer The Coalition, Storm Collectibles will be revealing two new Gears of War toys from its line-up come this year’s New York Toy Fair....

The exhilarating, maddening onslaught of E3 2010 is now a thing of the past, and all we have to replace it with is… a fairly solid week of new releases. That’s right, it’s time to get back out there and start buying games again. As always, Game Rant is here to help. Check out the new releases for June 2o through 26, 2010, broken out by platform and date. Mac...

The New York Times has decided to remove today’s intended Wordle answer, in case players thought its appearance was an attempt by the newspaper to reference a “major recent news event”. We’ll mention the word itself below. However, the New York Times is unable to affect Wordle’s list of upcoming answers (all pre-programmed into the game months in advance) if you do not refresh your browser window. This means some players will still see the removed word today....

The CEO of Level-5 has confirmed that lush-looking JRPG Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom will be flexing some serious graphical muscle on the PS4 Pro. Speaking with WCCFTech, Akihiro Hino revealed that those of you who own a regular PS4 can enjoy High Dynamic Range (HDR), while PS4 Pro owners will get dynamic 4K resolution and a buttery-smooth 60fps. This is great news, as the game looks bloody gorgeous when running on a bog-standard PS4 as it is....

Nintendo has distanced its upcoming NX console from the teraflops race of both the Xbox Scorpio and PlayStation 4 Neo, with Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime telling Bloomberg that content is most important. “For us, it’s not about specs, it’s not about teraflops, it’s not about the horsepower of a particular system. For us, it’s about the content,” said Fils-Aime when asked about news coming out of Microsoft and Sony regarding new more powerful consoles....

No Man’s Sky was the best-selling physical game in the UK last month, according to figures revealed by GfK Chart-Track (and posted by MCV). As a result, the game’s impressive sales also meant that Hello Games was the top-performing studio by revenue last month, and Sony the top performing publisher. Exact sales figures have yet to be announced. F1 2016 also did well, landing at No.2 in the monthly charts, with Deus Ex: Mankind Divided at No....

The US Securities and Exchange Commission has fined Nvidia $5.5m USD for failing to properly disclose the impact of cryptomining on revenue the company earned from the sale of its gaming GPUs - a failure the SEC says “deprived investors of critical information [needed] to evaluate the company’s business in a key market”. Announcing the results of its investigation, which specifically relates to Nvidia’s actions during its fiscal year 2018, the SEC claimed that while the tech company had reported material growth in revenue within its gaming business at the time, it had failed to reveal to investors that - based on its own information - its gaming sales were driven in significant part by cryptomining....

Oddworld: Soulstorm is a reimagining of Oddworld: Abe’s Exoddus, a game that originally released in 1998. Truth be told, I had only played the first two games in the franchise way back during the PlayStation days. Abe’s adventures, to me, were just a passing interest (not so much full-fledged fandom). As such, I looked at Oddworld: Soulstorm with fresh eyes. I was keen on seeing what the team at Oddworld Inhabitants can do with this latest offering....

This past summer, Bandai Namco Entertainment announced the first One Punch Man video game for consoles, entitled One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows. How the game will deal with the near-invincibility and absurdly overpowered main character has been a hot topic of discussion, and while the full scope of the game’s use of protagonist Saitama is still unclear, we now know when its release date is at least. Bandai Namco has announced the One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows release date to be February 28, 2020....

Tier 3 Mods are the high-ranking mods in Outriders. What are they you ask? Outriders has a really unique feature in the form of Mods. These Mods can be attached to weapons and gear to increase their firepower and overall stats. This is a handy mechanic to have and can allow you to upgrade your weapons in Outriders. This in fact fits in nicely with Outriders’ overall looter-shooter vibe. This Mod system also keeps players involved as they look to farm Legendary Weapons to get rare mods....

Overkill’s The Walking Dead is nothing like I expected it to be, both for better and for worse. I wasn’t too thrilled with the offerings from the Starbreeze Studio when I played the game during E3 2018. A colleague of mine sat down to play with me on four small stations during the show. We were fitted with headsets and ready to take on the undead. Following our session there, I couldn’t help but feel that the game had a long way to go, both visually and mechanically....

In today’s guide, I will show you how to make a Medieval Wall in Minecraft....

“Your life’s your own, Mob.” Adult Swim’s Toonami block of anime occasionally mixes it up with a departure from the norm, but by and large it’s a collection of shonen anime with overpowered main characters. Mob Psycho 100 is yet another shonen-style anime with a protagonist whose powers are substantially off the charts. Who cares? Well, you should, because Mob Psycho 100 is a true gift of an anime series that we do not deserve....

Modern Warfare 2 is the new era of Call of Duty. With a Global Campaign, Multiplayer mode, and Special Ops, MW 2 features the return of the iconic Task Force 141. And along with that, the return of iconic characters like Soap Mactavish, Captain Price, and even Ghost is imminent. While the classics return with a modern revamp, the game mechanics are still something to be excited about. And like other games, the Clan Tags will also return in COD MW2....

The sixth main installment in the series, Monster Hunter Rise is the game we all waited for. Perfectly running in Nintendo Switch, the gameplay is as fluid as you expect from the franchise.

You can use your companion to traverse the world on its back or even charge into battles. The next main feature is the new Photo Mode in MHR....

Mortal Kombat 11 has been left off of the EVO 2020 lineup which means there will be no presence from NetherRealm at the event for the first time in a decade. The competitive gaming scene is thriving right now. From Fortnite to League of Legends to CS:GO, there is big money to be made in esports. However, the video games that best lends themselves to the competitive scene is the fighting genre....
