Ascent: Infinite Realm represents a change of pace for the developer. While the game, like PUBG, will be a multiplayer title, genre and setting will be quite different. The welcome message on Ascent: Infinite Realm 's site sums up the new direction: "Get ready for an amazing world filled with Airships, Dragons, Magic & Exciteme
PewDiePie then apologized for the incident, saying that he is sorry if he had "offended, hurt or disappointed anyone" with his inappropriate language. Wrapping up his video, the YouTuber stated that he really wants to "improve," not just for himself, but for all those who are influenced by
Just last week in Fortnite , Epic Games "accidentally" allowed cross-platform multiplayer between PS4 and Xbox One users, but then patched out the feature since it isn't allowed by both Microsoft and Sony. Microsoft has been very open to cross-platform play, with the most recent example being that Minecraft players on Xbox One can play with those on PC and even Nintendo Switch. Sony, however, has refused to allow all cross-platform play except for PS4 and PC users. If Sony changes its mind, the community for Fortnite and Fortnite: Battle Royale could be h
It is a smart move by Epic Games to release Fortnite: Battle Royale before PUBG can get to consoles. It gives console owners the ability to play a battle royale game for free, and since the original Fortnite has received a pretty positive reception, fans familiar with the franchise name will be more willing to pick it
"Before we actually looked deeper into how similar [ Fortnite 's Battle Royale ] is, we wanted to raise an issue because this is from Epic Games. We could be the biggest indie success story that they have and there will be other indie developers that aspire to succeed like us using Unreal Engine, and they would be concerned, right? So we just wanted to raise an issue and let people know that it can be a probl
Bluehole seems to have an especially broad demographic in mind with Ascent: Infinite Realm . The trailer practically shouts that there's something here for everyone: Dragons to hunt, flying aircrafts to pilot (and destroy), properties and communities to build, and more. It'll be up to Bluehole, though, to ensure that it doesn't spread itself too thin; that each element is sufficiently fleshed-out to warrant the repeated revisiting that maintains successful online games. Lightning struck once with PUBG — it remains to be seen whether it'll strike ag
Paladins: Battlegrounds was announced yesterday and was met with immediate criticism from fans and critics alike. Many feel that, since the game will play so similarly to Pubg strategy , High Rez should at least stay away from the "battlegrounds" moniker. In response to these claims, High Rez Studio's president Stew Chisam was interviewed yesterday, wherein he pushed back on all of them and claimed that the two games are "unrelat
This latest incident is the second such moment in 2017 where PieDiePie has found himself in hot water over something he has said or done. A few months ago, the popular YouTuber drew criticism after he had made a series of anti-Semitic jokes in one of his videos , resulting in a considerable amount of fallout. Most notable, Disney ended its association with him and cancelled his YouTube Red horror s
A few weeks ago, Epic Games announced that their base building and wave-killing game Fortnite was receiving a Battle Royale mode. This mode is influenced by PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ( PUBG ) , pitting 100 players against each other on a large map with the winner being the last player left alive. Just yesterday, however, Epic Games has revealed that this mode will be released as its own game, titled **Fortnite: Battle Royale ** , and it will be free-to-p
This patch is the final live update for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds until version 1.0 is unveiled later this year alongside the Xbox Game Preview build for the Xbox One console. Bluehole does, however, have test servers for vaulting, climbing, and a new desert map planned as the game's two million players wait for the title to launch in f
Titled "My Response," the short video is devoid of PewDiePie's trademark shock humor, and directly addresses his use of a racial slur. The YouTuber begins by saying that he always found the use of inappropriate racial slurs by other players "immature and stupid" before conceding that he hates how he "personally fed into that part of gaming as well." PewDiePie continues by saying that his use of a racial slur had "slipped out" in the heat of the moment and that he's "disappointed" in himself because this latest incident demonstrates that he has "learned nothing" from all his past controversi
It's been a controversy-filled 2017 for PewDiePie and it remains to be seen how the popular YouTuber moves on from all the backlash. Given the widespread influence he still wields , perhaps this will cause PewDiePie to rethink how he creates new content from now
