Call of Duty: Warzone 2 Disables Two Major Features from Ranked Play

Raven Software has announced that it has disabled proximity voice chat and global text chat features from Call of Duty: Warzone 2 ranked play, meaning players won't be able to communicate with their teammates and enemies in the game. Restrictions in Warzone 2 ranked play have previously been expanded with the removal of Cluster Mine and Bomb Drone killstreaks. The reaction from players to this decision was overwhelmingly positive, with some claiming that the developers have done a great job of keeping the game balanced.

Warzone 2 sets itself apart from its predecessor by introducing new gameplay features and changes, such as the addition of third-person playlists, the reworked 2v2 Gulag mode, and different loadouts. Other features like split gas circles and the DMZ mode in Warzone 2 also offer players a casual fun experience. Proximity voice chat is one of these neat features, allowing players to talk to their teammates who are nearby on the map. Although this communication tool may be used to create immersive interactions, many players think it has increased the level of toxicity in the game.

Raven Software has announced that it has taken proximity voice chat and global text chat out of Warzone 2 ranked play. No specific reason for disabling these features has been provided. The developers said the decision was made upon further consideration with Treyarch Studios. Now, players won't be able to hear and talk to their teammates and enemies in ranked matches. In the comments, the reaction to this decision was overwhelmingly positive. But not everyone is happy with the removal of these features, and some players argue that Raven Software also removed a fun aspect of the game.

Leaker Claims Destiny 2 is Getting a Ridiculous New Feature

Bungie is all but ready to release the Season of the Deep for Destiny 2, and the community is excited to discover what the game's next big batch of seasonal content may have in store for them, but a leaker is now claiming that the whole thing may be a bit weirder than expected. Though Destiny is one of the most successful live-service offerings on the market, the community has complained about things getting stale for some time now.

A whole slew of good changes is being delivered in Season of the Deep. For example, Destiny 2's Season 21 is reducing endgame grind by a measurable margin, which is great news for veteran players. However, it's easy to argue that core economy updates aren't the sort of gameplay loop alterations that will keep the player base busy over a long period of time.

With that in mind, a Destiny 2 leaker now claims that Season 21 will introduce fishing to the game. Discord leaker Liz, whose info has sometimes been accurate in the past, has come up with a list of content that they claim will be making its way into the game come Season of the Deep, and highlights include several unique seasonal activities, a submarine on Titan, three unique new Exotic weapons, and more. Everything aside from fishing, however, seems like standard fare for Destiny, but Liz claims that players will be able to fish on Titan and then place whatever they catch into a HELM-based aquarium.

In a recent tweet, Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney pushed back against a recent article from Business Insider that claimed the Metaverse was "dead." The article, written by PR firm CEO Ed Zitron, argued that virtual worlds had been abandoned by the business world, citing Meta's Horizon Worlds, Decentraland, and Yuga Labs' Otherside as examples of metaverses that had failed to live up to their hype.

Sweeney, however, was quick to point out that there are currently 600 million users across virtual world platforms like Fortnite, Minecraft, Roblox, The Sandbox, and VR Chat. In his tweet, Sweeney sarcastically suggested that the Metaverse was dead and that it was time to organize an online wake for the 600 million monthly active users across these platforms to mourn its passing.

This isn't the first time that Sweeney has spoken out in defense of the Metaverse. In April 2022, Epic Games announced a $2 billion funding round aimed at accelerating the company's plans for the Metaverse. The investment included a $1 billion investment from Sony Group and KIRKBI, the holding company behind the LEGO Group.

Shortly after the funding round, Epic Games and LEGO Group announced a long-term partnership to build a "family-friendly" Metaverse. While neither company has revealed any concrete details about the collaboration, LEGO Group CEO Niels Christiansen told the Financial Times earlier this year that the company was looking to announce more details soon.

Sweeney's defense of the Metaverse is understandable, given that Epic Games is heavily invested in the technology. As the creator of the Unreal Engine and Fortnite, two major players in the virtual world space, Epic Games is well-positioned to take advantage of the growing interest in the Metaverse.

Fans of TMNT will be pleased to know that a recent Skyrim mod allows the iconic cartoon characters to become the Dragonborn's followers.

Many Skyrim fans will also fondly remember their heady days of watching Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on weekends, and a recent mod makes it possible for the classic cartoon heroes to become followers in the Bethesda RPG. With The Elder Scrolls 6 still in development and no way of knowing when it will actually come out, the gaming world is seemingly getting the most out of the fifth entry in the fantasy series, even if some are growing impatient for the next game.

Over the course of 11 years, modders have offered new ways of playing Skyrim, increasing the shelf life of the aging game. Whether it's graphical upgrades to keep TES5 looking modern, adding in new NPCs and quests, fixing bugs, or just having fun with the original format, there's something for everyone out there. Occasionally, someone will come along and decide to mix up franchises as well.

That's what Nexus Mods user SOYSAUCINIT has done, at least. Thanks to a recent upload from them, Skyrim fans can now go adventuring across the titular province with the aforementioned Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in tow. The mod, which is simply called "TMNT Followers," gives players a chance to mix their love of high-fantasy gaming with iconic cartoon characters. All four of the turtles are available as followers and the description says that, once installed, these half-shelled heroes can be found outside Riften Fishery.

The United Kingdom's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) released its final report on the Microsoft acquisition of Activision Blizzard, and it looks like the decision could prevent the deal from going through for the next ten years. Some might find this ironic with Microsoft signing ten-year deals with many different companies and cloud gaming services, the most recent being with Nware. Microsoft even went so far as to say that it would eventually make Activision Blizzard titles available on the platform, seemingly in defiance of the CMA's decision.

It seems like Microsoft was caught off guard by the CMA's ruling; several companies had spoken out in favor of its acquisition of Activision Blizzard saying that they did not believe the deal would negatively affect competition. The main detractor all the while has been Sony; the Japanese gaming giant has gone so far as to say that the deal would irreparably harm competition and that Microsoft could potentially release inferior versions of Call of Duty on PlayStation. Naturally, Microsoft denied this by saying that it intended to make Call of Duty available across many platforms, and has been signing ten-year deals left and right in an effort to prove this.

The CMA's final report exhaustively spells out the authority's reasoning for unexpectedly blocking Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard and is over 400 pages in length. Under section 11.26, the document reveals that the CMA's normal practice would be to block the merger for a period of ten years unless the circumstances changed somehow.

Pokemon Artist Spends 600 Hours Painting Impressive Mural

A Pokemon fan paints an incredible mural that features over 50 pocket monsters and characters from nine generations of the series.

A Pokemon player drew an amazing mural on the side of their house that took them hundreds of hours to complete. Fans of Game Freak's titles have been drawing pocket monsters since their inception. Pokemon artwork has helped players celebrate the franchise for generations, showing love for one of the most successful video game series to ever release.

Pokemon drawings come in a number of different forms, giving gamers plenty to enjoy. Many of the pieces that artists come up with are passion projects that display a good amount of hard work and dedication as they were not easy to complete. While they might have been incredibly difficult to create, oftentimes they are worth the effort and come out looking beautiful.

A Reddit user named artbycpw shared a video showing off a mural that they painted on the side of their house. According to the artist, the piece took 600 hours of painting that they did whenever they were able. The mural features 51 pocket monsters, including Pokemon such as Gengar, Onix, a Shiny Celebi, and Mimikyu. There are also 10 trainers from the anime series, including Ash, Iris, Brock, and Serena. Many of the Pokemon seen in the artwork are drawn to the scale given in their Pokedex entries, giving some of them a huge presence in the piece. The mural looks great and shows an incredible amount of dedication and talent.

A crafty Resident Evil 4 player recently discovered a way to skip the first Garrador fight in the game. Garradors were some of the hardest non-boss enemies in Resident Evil 4, and the same remains true for its recently released remake.

The realization that the first Garrador encountered in Chapter 7 was not a unique boss, but simply an elite enemy can be a pretty despairing moment for players. Despite being blind, these Resident Evil 4 creatures—whose name is Spanish for "clawer"—are extremely deadly and near-invulnerable. Taking one down hence requires calm nerves and a lot of careful maneuvering in order to attack their sole weak spot on the back. Players who are up for the challenge can also earn a Resident Evil 4 achievement for defeating their first Garrador using only knives.

Alternatively, it turns out this challenging Chapter 7 encounter can be avoided altogether. Doing so also seems to be surprisingly straightforward for a technique that lets players skip much more than just the Garrador fight, allowing them to immediately get past the locked Audience Chamber door and hence circumvent nearly half of the Castle level. The trick starts by turning Leon's back to the locked door, equipping a sniper rifle, and doing a 180-turn while looking through its scope. Leaving the scoped view at the very last moment and instantly interacting with the door will trigger a regular opening animation instead of whatever check was meant to force the players to take a detour in search of a key.

A new blog post from the game director for Overwatch 2 gives players insight into Blizzard’s thoughts about hero balance in the free-to-play shooter.

Players of Blizzard’s Overwatch 2 who have been waiting for information about potential balance changes coming to the popular hero shooter now have some answers about when to expect such changes, though they may not be the ones they were hoping for. Blizzard has been making some high-profile changes to its free-to-play shooter recently, with recent news hinting that changes to Overwatch 2’s competitive play mode are currently in the works.

Following up on the overwhelming success of its 2016 predecessor, Blizzard released Overwatch 2 for PC and consoles in late 2022. Although many fans had initially been excited about the prospect of a sequel to the popular hero shooter, the news that the game would move to a free-to-play model immediately made some long-time players hesitant, with the announcement that Overwatch 2 would switch to a 5v5 mode further souring some gamers’ opinions. While bringing back the entire original roster from the first game in addition to adding new heroes was praised by many series fans, ongoing complaints about issues ranging from serious balance issues to problems with Overwatch 2’s Play of the Game feature have plagued the game since release.

In a new post on the official Overwatch 2 blog, game director Aaron Keller gives gamers insight into the development team’s thoughts about the current state of balance in the game. In what is sure to be surprising news for players who’ve expressed frustration over the extremely high damage dealt by heroes like Sojourn and Roadhog, the latter of whom can eliminate most characters with a single shot, Keller states that Overwatch 2’s balance is “the best it's been since the launch of OW2” according to player feedback. Keller goes on to cite matchmaking information showing that the heroes who are played the most aren’t necessarily the ones with the highest win rates to support his claim.

For gamers who’d been hoping for a new Overwatch 2 balance patch to be released soon, this news may be disappointing. Citing further matchmaking information showing that, even though some heroes get more use than others, nearly every hero is getting a good amount of playtime at the moment, Keller states that the developers are “not looking at doing balance changes until our midseason patch.” While Blizzard’s feedback seems to indicate that players are fine with the current hero balance, those who’ve been one-shotted by Roadhog recently may beg to differ.

While a new Overwatch 2 balance patch may not arrive any time soon, players can take some solace in the fact that Blizzard’s data seems to show the game is more balanced than in Season 2. And at least they won’t have to worry about a new version of Cassidy’s overpowered sticky gr***de from a recent clip showing up in the game any time soon.

A new Genshin Impact leak has shared more details about a pair of Abyss enemies coming to the game with next week's Version 3.5 update. Recent patches of HoYoverse's hit RPG have seen plenty of content added to the game between locations to explore, new characters, and a variety of quests and events. Version 3.4 saw the expansion of the Sumeru desert bring with it several unique puzzle-solving mechanics, as well as new enemies for the cliffs and valleys of the region. Now, the game's next update is set to welcome a pair of enemies from the Abyss.

Genshin Impact's Version 3.5, set to launch next week, will feature a variety of new content throughout the game's world. The update's main event, the Windblume Festival, will see players return to the Mondstadt region while the newest chapter of the Archon Quest will welcome the return of Dainsleif. The Special Program for Version 3.5 heavily teased the new addition to the Traveler's story with the Abyss once again taking the spotlight for the quest. Now, a recent leak gives more information about two Abyss enemies coming with it.

A new leak from Chinese forum NGA reveals some of the new mechanics featured with both the Rockbreaker Ax variant of the Black Serpent Knight and the Frost Fall Abyss Herald. The Black Serpent Knight variant features a berserk mechanic after attacking shielded characters, granting it bonus damage and resistances while making its HP temporarily immune. The berserk state also imbues the Rockbreaker Ax's attacks with Geo damage with an eleven-second duration on the berserk status.

No Man's Sky just got a new update in time for the launch of PS VR2 after being teased by creator Sean Murray with one of his famously cryptic tweets. The Fractal update is the first major update since No Man's Sky got its big 4.0 update in October 2022, titled Waypoint, that saw the space sim arrive on the Nintendo Switch platform along with a raft of tweaks, content, and improvements for all platforms.

The Fractal update isn't exactly a big surprise. No Man's Sky creator Sean Murray habitually teases updates by tweeting singular emojis with no further context or clues about what exactly fans can expect. This time around Sean tweeted a snowflake emoji. Attempting to figure out what Murray is alluding to with his emojis has become a game of sorts among the No Man's Sky community. His seemingly innocuous tweets never fail to get the community excited, sharing their thoughts about to expect.

Fractal comes with a bevy of graphical enhancements as well as improvements to the overall gameplay geared at taking advantage of the PS VR2 Sense controllers. The update also adds features like gyroscopic controls for Switch and PlayStation, dynamic resolution scaling for PS5, a treasure catalog, and a brand new No Man's Sky expedition for all players titled "Utopia" that tasks players with reinvigorating a once-thriving star system.

The Fractal update may not be the most exciting since it mostly focuses on bringing No Man's Sky to PS VR2, but as the Waypoint update did before it, Fractal paves the way for bigger and better things to come in the future. No Man's Sky has gone from strength to strength since its infamously disastrous launch which has become a cautionary tale of sorts to developers who lay the hype on a little too thick, and also contributed to the general cynicism gamers seem to have around pre-ordering games.

A recent leak is good news for Nintendo fans that are anticipating the Switch's successor console, whatever it may be.

A recent leak may be really good news for Nintendo Switch gamers that are looking forward to the home console/handheld hybrid's successor, as it suggests the new system will retain the content already available through the Switch Online service. The Nintendo Switch is nearly six years old, yet Nintendo still hasn't announced its successor. With the Nintendo Switch being one of the most successful video game consoles of all time, though, a successor system of some kind is a virtual guarantee.

The jury is still out on whether the next Nintendo console will be called Switch 2 or shoot for something completely different. Nintendo has not exactly been consistent with its console naming conventions, after all. The Nintendo Entertainment System was succeeded by the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, but then the next console was the Nintendo 64. Then it went to GameCube to Wii to Wii U to Switch, so it's anyone's guess what the next console from Nintendo will be called.

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) in the UK has seemingly leaked that a Switch successor is indeed in the works, though, and it will apparently feature the Nintendo Switch's online functionality. In a document recently published by the CMA, Nintendo's cloud gaming efforts are mentioned for the Nintendo Switch and a redacted device. While it's possibly referring to something completely unexpected, it seems likely that this is referring to the unannounced Switch successor console. Reading between the lines, this would potentially mean that the Switch 2 console will feature the Switch Online service and its cloud gaming capabilities, though it's possible that this just means that Nintendo will have cloud gaming available on its new console in a way that is separate from what's already offered through Switch Online.

Skyrim gamer finds a child wearing the heavy Daedric armor in the game world. The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim is a popular action role-playing game developed by Bethesda Game Studios that takes place in a vast open world filled with countless quests, enemies, and treasures to discover. One of the most iconic aspects of Skyrim is the vast array of armor and weapons available to the player. Each type of armor provides different levels of protection and boosts to various stats, allowing Skyrim gamers to customize their characters to suit their play style and preferences.

One of the most iconic armor sets in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim is the Daedric armor made from a rare and valuable material called Daedra Heart. The armor provides significant protection and boosts to various combat stats, making it an ideal choice for Skyrim players looking to maximize their defensive capabilities. Daedric armor is quite rare in Skyrim, but one Reddit user recently shared an image that has stunned many players: a child character wearing a full set of Daedric armor.

The image was posted by Reddit user Jaxon5002 and quickly gained attention on the Skyrim subreddit. The picture shows a young female character, who appears to be a child, wearing a complete set of Daedric armor. The character's name is not visible in the image, but many players have speculated that the child may have been added to the game through a mod or custom content. The original poster clarified they hadn't installed any mod, suggesting that the child wearing Daedric armor could be due to a Skyrim glitch.

Hogwarts Legacy continues its impressive launch by topping Japanese sales charts, outperforming Nintendo's latest hit by a huge margin.

Hogwarts Legacy has continued its impressive launch by topping the Japanese sales charts in its debut week, outperforming Nintendo's latest hit by a huge margin. The new Harry Potter game already broke a 22-year-old sales record in the UK, in addition to becoming WB Games' biggest-ever Steam launch and seizing the title of the most-viewed single-player game in Twitch history.

Less than a week into its release after a brief early-access period, Hogwarts Legacy already appears to be in the running for the most successful game of 2023. Making matters even more impressive is the fact that the action RPG has so far only reached half its target platforms. Avalanche Software previously announced plans to do a staggered release of Hogwarts Legacy and is currently still working on porting the game to last-generation consoles.

In the meantime, the latest Harry Potter game continues to sell incredibly well, with the latest piece of evidence attesting to that trend coming from Japan. Famitsu estimates that Hogwarts Legacy sold 67,196 copies during its debut week in the Far Eastern country, outselling the second-placed Pokemon Scarlet and Violet by nearly 40,000 units. Of course, the new Pokemon games have been out for months and already sold nearly 5 million units in Japan, but that's not to downplay the local success of Hogwarts Legacy, which outperformed the next five best-selling titles combined during the observed period.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Leak Reveals Unused Interiors, Possible Battle Tower

New Pokemon Scarlet and Violet leaks give fans a look at some unfinished interiors, one of which appears to be a Battle Tower for the Paldea region.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players have discovered a variety of unfinished interiors for the game, reflective of the fact that most towns do not have many buildings that can be entered, and one of those appears a lot like a Battle Tower. Just like the interiors, the Battle Tower is a popular feature that didn't make the cut for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.

While one would think that everything that could be possibly discovered about Pokemon Scarlet and Violet would be by now, that's simply not the case. After all, some of the key elements of the games are not in them quite yet, with many fans expecting Pokemon Scarlet and Violet DLC to be announced on Pokemon Day, February 27. Some of them, like town interiors, are not likely to make it into the game at all, but fingers crossed, perhaps the Battle Tower will.

Twitter user Lewtwo recently shared some interior locations around the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet town of Zapapico. There is some mining material scattered around the room, but otherwise, it's pretty standard. Perhaps someone willing to trade a Pokemon would have been inside, or just some NPC with random commentary. The fact that many interiors were inaccessible was a letdown for many fans, with these unfinished leaks having aggregator Centro Leaks question whether Game Freak just didn't have enough time to include them. That's hard to say for sure, but it's not likely they make their way into the game now.

A new action-packed trailer shows the gameplay of Dead Cide Club, a free-to-play side-scrolling shooter with a Battle Royale mode.

The developer behind Dead Cide Club, PressA, has recently divulged a launch trailer for the new title as well as its official release date. Dead Cide Club is a new free-to-play side-scrolling action game with several modes, including Battle Royale and a co-op mode.

Dead Cide Club was originally announced on Steam by PressA almost a year ago. Soon after that, the team began to call players for a Closed Beta testing phase around April 2022, something that many developers are trying out right now. During this time, the participants were able to play in the Battle Royale mode as well as BeHolder, a unique mode that allowed them to set up the rules as they want and start private competitions.

In the newly released trailer, it’s possible to see what’s expected for a title of this type, including several fast-paced action scenes in which characters collect new weapons, kill each other, and wear wacky skins like a horse head, dinosaur suits, or a classic black and white striped prisoner outfit. Most of the gameplay includes shooting enemies with guns, using throwing weapons such as gr***des, and a grappling hook mechanic, which is something that is getting increasingly popular in games these days, and adds to the feel of quick pace combat. The title's release date, February 27, was also announced in the video.
