"If there is an app for that"

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.

The best mobile games like Pokémon

February 08, 2022 by RSS Feed

The latest entry in the mega-popular monster collecting and battling series is here in the form of Pokémon Legends: Arceus. In an effort to nakedly capitalize on everyone searching for “games like Pokémon” to recommend some great mobile games, here we are with a list of games fit that exact criteria.

Whether you want just another way to play with the same pocket monsters you know and love, or want something that just takes the underlying features of collecting and battling to different places, this list has you covered with rock solid titles along with reviews to inform your choice.

Monster Hunter Stories ($4.99)

Instead of dismembering monsters to get gear to hunt and kill bigger monsters, Monster Hunter Stories takes Capcom’s hit loot-oriented series in a direction where you befriend, train, and fight alongside beasts like Rathalos and Tigrex. Much like a Pokémon game, you build a lineup of monsters with various strengths and weaknesses, and then try to use that roster to overcome turn-based battles that test your strength and tactical decision-making.

Genshin Impact (Free)

Although folks are quick to say Genshin Impact looks like a Breath of the Wild imitator, it actually has more in common with Pokémon than anything in the realm of Hyrule. moHoYo’s hugely successful open world gacha game is built all around collecting and using teams of adventurers with different elemental affinities. By combining character abilities and elements to cause reactions, you can conquer any challenge Teyvat throws your way.

Pokémon UNITE (Free)

If the thing you want most is a way to play with Snorlax and Pickachu on your phone, Pokémon UNITE is the way to go. This MOBA does a better job of making Pokémon fun on mobile than any other title out there (I’m looking at you, Pokémon GO).

Nexomon ($0.99)

For those that are Pokémon purists and want something that truly approaches the original Game Boy games, Nexomon is here for you. This game gives you the top-down perspective, a set of trainers to battle in certain towns, turn-based battling with an elemental combat system, and over 300 monsters to collect and train. This is really just Pokémon with different monsters, for better and for worse.

Battlefield Mobile to go into Beta Test

February 08, 2022 by RSS Feed

Battlefield, the popular shooter, is making its way to mobile. Fans have been eagerly waiting to play the Battlefield experience on handheld devices and looks like they won’t have to wait for long.

Recently, EA, the creator of the Battlefield series, announced that they were aiming for an early 2022 release. Hopefully, players might get their hands on the game before March 2022.

In a recent Q&A session, the CEO of Electronic Arts Andrew Wilson mentioned that Battlefield Mobile will have a closed beta test later this month. He also said that the test will help the creators know what works best for them.

Battlefield Mobile had a few alpha tests in a handful of regions. The game was choppy and players were disappointed with the visuals. However, the tests were focused on the core mechanics and key features. And you cannot expect a game to be perfect in an alpha test.

How to Participate in the Closed Beta Test

Fans who are willing to take part in the beta test can head over to Google Play and get the beta version. Players can then go to Google Play and tap on the “pre-register” button. You will be notified when the game becomes available. So far, EA has not announced any date for the beta test.

Note that the beta test is happening only in Indonesia and the Philippines. As of now, only Android users can take part in the playtests. EA’s official page says that they will expand the playtests to other regions soon.

Stay tuned for more Battlefield Mobile updates!
