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.

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.

Activision might release Warzone Mobile in 2022

February 13, 2022 by RSS Feed

A few months ago, there were some rumours floating on the internet about a mobile version of Call of Duty: Warzone. However, the buzz soon died down as there was no confirmation from the developers. The speculation was based on several job advertisements by Activision, which pointed towards a new game that is under development.

As one can imagine, Call of Duty fans, especially COD Mobile players, were keen on this new development and a possible mobile variant of Warzone. Considering the success that COD Mobile has achieved, it is quite possible that Activision might be working on another mobile game.

And now, a new tweet by an industry insider shows the possibility that Warzone Mobile might roll out in the latter half of 2022. Tom Henderson, a notable industry insider, is positive that the upcoming game will be Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile.

Nothing much is known about the upcoming game yet. However, Tom Henderson believes that the new game will be released in 2022.

Interestingly, iFerg, a notable YouTube content creator, had speculated that another mobile game was under development in 2021. He had often talked about the game in multiple videos and streams. Here’s a 2021 tweet from him:

According to some other leaks on the internet, the alleged Warzone Mobile is being developed with the Unreal Engine. Activision has teamed up with multiple studios for the mobile title.

Call of Duty: Mobile had a grandiose launch. The multiplayer battle royale game has received generally positive feedback, and it still has an active user base. It would be interesting to see if Warzone Mobile will receive the same response (if the game really releases this year).

In any case, the developer is yet to confirm Warzone Mobile. Meanwhile, Activision has already confirmed a few titles in the PC and console realm. Call of Duty Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 have already been confirmed.

The best mobile games for Valentine's Day

February 11, 2022 by RSS Feed

Love—artificially manufactured and genuine—is in the air with Valentine’s Day coming up, but that’s no reason to stop gaming. Now you could just keep on logging in to your Genshin Impacts, Rocket Leagues, and posting your daily Wordle score, but you could also be playing some games that match this romantic time of year.

Luckily, there’s plenty of solid titles to let you do exactly that. Read on below for our top picks of fully vetted and endorsed mobile games that examine love, relationships, kissing, and more.

Five Dates (Free)

Wales Interactive basically made a playable romcom with Five Dates. This FMV game has you meeting various women virtually in hopes of making some romantic sparks fly. Pick your dates, get advice from your friend, and decide how to act in your hangouts to see if anything might workout between these women and the white straight cypher of a character you play as.

Speed Dating for Ghosts ($2.99)

Speed Dating for Ghosts pulls double duty as a good Halloween game as well as a solid Valentine’s Day experience. In it, you and everyone else you are dating have passed on from the mortal realm, but that doesn’t stop everyone of wanting to find some connection. This interactive fiction game has you choosing ghosts you want to talk to to learn more about them and also try to see if there’s any romantic connection there.

Tender: Creature Comforts ($3.99)

The pitch for Tender: Creature Comforts sounds like it’s just a goofy parody of online dating. In some ways, this is true, but the premise of matching for dates with aliens who all populate a planet for the purpose of romantic connection is carried out with such earnestness and attention-to-detail that it also has the power to move you and suck you in to the relationships you develop through texting back and forth.

Gemini - A Journey of Two Stars ($1.99)

Gemini is the least explicitly romantic game on this list, but that’s mostly because the game itself is very minimal and suggestive. That said, this light puzzle adventure is clearly about relationships, sacrifice, and the power of connection, making it one of the most affecting mobile games I’ve played and a more than appropriate addition to this list.

Spitkiss ($1.99)

If you don’t want to be grossed out by all of the emotional aspects of romance through the other games listed here, why not be grossed out by the physical aspects? Spitkiss is a game about creatures that communicate and bond through bodily fluids, and the “game” aspect of it involves flinging spit through complicated environments in hopes of connecting with a companion on the other side. On a more serious note, Spitkiss also gets massive props for being one of the few mobile games I’ve encountered that provides representation for polyamorous relationships and explores themes of gender fluidity. It’s also just a really great platformer.
