Forza Horizon 5 was released just one week ago and the racing title is already on its way to becoming one of the best and most competitive driving games of the year. From offroad scenic drives to highway speeding, the game has everything racing fans could have hoped for, including a map 50 percent larger than Forza Horizon 4‘s and a whopping roster of 520 cars from some of the world’s most renowned brands.

Blizzard Entertainment revealed the first details about World of Warcraft’s next expansion in April. The expansion, called Dragonflight, still doesn’t have a release date, but players can already sign up for a chance to play a beta version of it before it’s released. Dragonflight is WoW’s first expansion since Shadowlands, which came out in November 2020. In addition to letting players ride dragons, it is set to include a new race and class, exclusive to each other for the first time in the history of the game.

The Witch Queen has finally arrived and she’s brought her Throne World with her. Savathûn’s Throne World is Destiny 2’s newest destination and there’s plenty of mystery, intrigue, and beautiful areas to explore. One of the newest facets of the destination is a new public event, and like all others, it has a unique requirement to turn it into a Heroic version to earn even more loot. The “Ferry the Resonant Splinter” public event will spawn occasionally in multiple locations in the Throne World.

League of Legends started 2020 with the introduction of Sett, the first champion on a list of new characters that will join the game. Following his release, Riot confirmed in a Champion Roadmap that it was getting ready to release two more champions in a “big” summer event named Spirit Blossom. Riot provided some clues about the new champions. The first clue said one of the champions has already been seen in the official lore before.

Hisuian forms have been located in the game text for Pokémon Go, according to recent data mining. These Pokémon from the upcoming title Pokémon Legends Arceus could be coming to the mobile game in the near future. Leaks from PokeMiners on Twitter suggest that there are some Hisuian forms coming to Pokémon Go soon. Voltorb’s Hisuian form was specifically found in the files and several new character events were also found.

As part of Pokémon Go Fest 2021, Niantic is adding in several special bonuses and encounters, like Meloetta and other Pokémon that will only be available during the event.  One of those bonuses is a new set of event-exclusive Special Research that will force players to make certain decisions, which will then branch off and change what rewards will be given once you finish specific tasks.  The main appeal of the Special Research, outside of grabbing a bunch of bonus items and rare encounters, is the fact both Pop Star Pikachu and Rock Star Pikachu are available as rewards.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to get wrecked in Halo: Infinite or Grand Theft Auto III on an eReader, Reddit user achilleswing has you covered. Running games on unorthodox devices like mini OLED screens and—in the case of Doom—printers is a long-standing tradition, but running Halo Infinite multiplayer is another story. Achilleswing was able to get Halo: Infinite, Grand Theft Auto III, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, and a couple of other titles running on an Android-based eReader called Boox Nova Pro.

Epic Games adds new skins to the game with almost every patch. As well as new additions, existing skins also get shuffled into the in-game shop. This allows players to pick up skins that were available in the past but haven’t been accessible for a long time. While some returning skins are welcomed by the player base, others typically don’t draw much attention. Most players will be familiar with the best someskins in Fortnite but not as many know about the worst.

Trainwreckstv has been banned from GTA V RP server NoPixel 3.0 day days after being accused of metagaming.

This ban comes just days after multiple clips surfaced suggesting that Train had been using other players’ knowledge as his own on the server.

One of the best perks of owning the Xbox consoles is its backward compatibility. With the new Xbox series of consoles, backward compatibility remains a key feature. Not only are many past-generation Xbox games playable on the new system, but older accessories and controllers work as well.
