May 10, 2022 by RSS Feed

Rainbow Six Siege, Ubisoft’s popular FPS, is making its way onto mobile. Officially named ‘Rainbow Six Mobile’, the game will be rolling out alpha tests for a select few regions next week.

As of now, no dates have been announced for an official, global launch. But players from the US, Canada, and Mexico will be able to get a first glimpse of the game.

Starting next week, the first live test for Rainbow Six Mobile will be available for Android users across the three countries. Only a few players will be selected and given early access to Rainbow Six Mobile.

Rainbow Six Mobile: How to Sign Up for Alpha Test

Interested players from the US, Canada, and Mexico can head over to Rainbow Six Mobile’s official website, and fill out the signup form.

Selected players will be notified via email and then they can proceed to install the game. The alpha test is expected to begin on May 3rd.

Operators, Maps, and Modes

16 Operators, including fan-favourite attackers and defenders, will be playable. The game will feature attackers like Ash, Sledge, Twitch, Thermite, and Hibana. As far as defenders are concerned, Caveira, Bandit, Smoke, Valkyrie, and Mute will also appear on the roster.

The devs have confirmed that two maps, Bank and Border will be available during the alpha test. The two locations will have two modes to check out. More content will be added as development progresses.

As you can guess, the game is in its alpha stage, so players can expect a few bugs here and there. Developer Ubisoft has encouraged players to share feedback to help make the game better.

Players can record and share game footage as the developer has not put up any NDA.

The whole gaming community is waiting for Diablo Immortal, which is set to release in June this year. RPG fanatics will finally have a chance to enjoy the Diablo universe on their Android and iOS devices. The PC open beta will also launch on the same day after four years of development.

Players can then roam around through the eight different expansion zones with different hellish styles. Developers promise more zones and content for players in the upcoming months.

What will Diablo Immortal on mobile look like?

Diablo is already an extremely popular MMORPG on PC and consoles and still continues to have an active community. In fact, many consider it to be one of the best AAA hack-n-slash ever made.

Diablo Immortal is set between the events of Diablo II and Diablo III. As always, players can explore the Diablo universe, play legendary characters, and socialize with the community.

Players will be able to play Diablo Immortal on their mobiles and PC, syncing the progress on both. Yes, crossplay will be available once the game rolls out on both platforms.

These beloved heroes will fight against iconic bosses like Haunted Carriage, The Skeleton King, Fahir, Countess, Glacial Colossus, and Baal.

Android, as well as iOS users all across the globe, will finally be able to download the iconic hack-n-slash game after four years of development.

Blizzard Entertainment to Unveil Warcraft Mobile in May

May 10, 2022 by RSS Feed

Blizzard is all geared up to finally let us have a sneak peek into the much-awaited Warcraft Mobile. The game developer will unveil the highly-anticipated strategy game this week. Fans and enthusiasts can take part in the live event to get their first glimpse at the game.

The new mobile version is exciting, as new and existing players will experience the Warcraft universe in a new light. Although Blizzard has spilled some beans recently, Warcraft Mobile is still pretty much shrouded in mystery.

Warcraft Mobile: What’s in it?

As we mentioned, Warcraft Mobile has been under wraps for quite some time, so it’s difficult to predict anything about the game. However, the game might feature auto battler elements like the Team Fight Tactics.

Further, the developers have not yet revealed whether Warcraft Mobile will be a multiplayer online role-playing game or a real-time strategy game. However, it is quite safe to assume that the primary goal of developing a mobile game would be to replicate the PC World of Warcraft experience on mobile devices.

In any case, we will have to wait till the developer officially announces to determine whether Warcraft Mobile is an MMORPG or RTS.

When is Blizzard Unveiling Warcraft Mobile?

Blizzard has confirmed that the Warcraft Mobile game will be officially unveiled on May 3, 2022, at 10 a.m. PT. You can check out the tweet on World of Warcraft’s official Twitter handle here.

Fans can attend the live event via this link: http://reveal.blizzard.com/

With this, mobile gamers will finally be able to explore the realm of Warcraft on their handheld devices.

Interestingly, this announcement comes shortly after Blizzard Entertainment revealed their plans for Diablo Immortal, revealing that the RPG will be released globally on June 3.

The best mobile games to celebrate Star Wars Day

May 10, 2022 by RSS Feed

Star Wars Day is coming, and if you want to celebrate appropriately, don’t shout or tweet “May the fourth be with you.” Play some Star Wars games instead. Trust me, everyone will be better served this way.

If you prefer your Star Wars gaming on the go, unfortunately, the pool of “actually good” Star Wars games is pretty slim. But, with this list of the best Star Wars games on the App Store, you can’t go wrong. Check out our picks below:

Star Wars™: KOTOR ($4.99) and KOTOR II ($6.99)

If you want to go hard into Star Wars Day, definitely pick up the Knights of the Old Republic games. These two games are probably the deepest and richest Star Wars games out there, and they hold up incredibly well. Developed by BioWare (back when they were a good developer of RPGs), it invents a wholly original storyline in the Star Wars universe that predates even those awful prequel movies, and it does so spectacularly well.

In honor of today, the Knights of the Old Republic games are also on sale, and to me they are without a doubt must-buys, even if you aren’t that into Star Wars.

LEGO® Star Wars™ Battles (Apple Arcade)

The Clash Royale mobile formula is fun at its core and translates well into Star Wars battles, especially when on a service that prevents the possibility of players paying to advance ahead of the competition. There’s nothing hugely innovative about this LEGO-fied Star Wars multiplayer battler, but it is still good at what it sets out to do.

LEGO® Star Wars™: Castaways (Apple Arcade)

A sort of loot-based Star Wars game where you crash land on a planet that has a library of simulated Star Wars moments you can relive and blast your way through solo or with friends, Castaways is easily capable of delivering on quick doses of iconic Star Wars moments while also giving you a hefty upgrade treadmill to work your way through if you want to dive in deeper.

Here's what you need to know about Hundred Days - Napa Valley

May 10, 2022 by RSS Feed

One of the top ten games I played last year just recently released a new expansion. Hundred Days, the winery management simulator, now has a new set of challenges and wine varieties to represent California's wine landscape, and it's a welcome addition to an already great game.

To acquire this expansion, players must first spend $2.99 to fully unlock the Napa Valley menu waiting for them on the game's new start screen. From there, you can choose to play in the open-ended endless mode or embark on challenges that ask you to achieve certain milestones within a turn limit. These modes already exist within the base version of Hundred Days, but the new wine varieties, climate considerations, and even the challenges themselves are all new in this expansion.

If you want to get a look at how this might change things up, feel free to inspect the video impressions posted with this piece. Overall, I would say that the game doesn't feel all that different so much as a bunch of little goalposts have been shifted. As a result, it adds a good amount of variety for players who have grown tired of starting games already knowing the best ways to cultivate all of the Piedmont wine varieties and would like to discover new methods for producing different wines. Outside of that, it mostly feels like more of the same.

In some ways, that's great. A big part of the appeal of Hundred Days to me is how laid-back and incremental it is. That said it would've been nice to see some additional story (the base game's is surprisingly charming!) or perhaps a new mode altogether. This is all to say that this Napa Valley expansion will probably only do anything for you if you are hungry for more of what Hundred Days has already offered you, as opposed to refreshing the game in a way that would draw in new players or respond to any criticisms.
