Halo Infinite is killing its seasonal model in 2024. Three years after its initial launch, the live-service multiplayer shooter is shifting toward more bite-sized, 20-level battle passes arriving every four to six weeks. Developer 343 industries announced the content change in its January update stream on January 19, along with several other major features, cosmetics, and more that are set to arrive on the FPS this year - Claire Jackson Read More

A character with long hair holds an orb in front of the camera.

New survival sensation Palworld, which earned the nickname “Pokémon with guns,” has taken the darn internet by storm. Though its popularity is complicated by clear similarities to that other monster-catching game, many are finding absolute joy in its gameplay. That gameplay is due for some evolution itself in the near future. - Claire Jackson Read More

A Spartan races forward while firing a gun in a snowy canyon.

One of Halo Infinite’s last major updates allowed users to spawn AI from the single-player campaign in multiplayer matches. Combined with the depth of Halo’s map creator, Forge, it was only a matter of time until folks harnessed this to start recreating signature moments from Halo’s many games over the years.

Soldiers aim their weapons while walking forward.

First introduced in 2022’s Modern Warfare II, Call of Duty currently features a nonlinear battle pass themed like a geographic map. While this allows players to choose what they want to unlock from the pass instead of going through a scripted path, it can be a little confusing to newcomers used to more traditional, linear sets of unlockables. What’s more, the “token” system that CoD uses to unlock stuff from the battle pass can be a little confusing as well, especially if you’re not sure whether you should just let the pass automatically unlock itself by spending tokens for you. - Claire Jackson Read More

Several cat-like Pals transport raw materials to be processed.

Capturing and putting your Pokémon-like Pals to work isn’t the only thing you can do in the outrageously successful new survival game Palworld.

Mario thinking, appearing on the screen of a cartoon Switch.

We know there’s going to be a follow-up to the Switch. Mostly because the other option is Nintendo just hanging up its hat and walking off into the sea, and that’d be weird. Nintendo is, as ever, entirely mute on the subject, but rumors are reaching category 5 that the console giant’s next console device will be appearing in time for the holiday season of 2024. With developers seeing the machine behind closed doors, and tech manufacturers announcing the sudden need to produce vast numbers of LCD screens, it’s a good moment to collate everything we know so far about what to expect. - John Walker Read More

The TAQ Evolvere LMG is super imposed over a blurry image of soldiers taking aim.

Last week’s Call of Duty update brought with it two new guns, the HRM-9 SMG and the TAQ Evolvere light machine gun. In this guide we’ll take a look at getting the most out of the LMG. With a 100-round magazine, the TAQ Evolvere is more than capable of supplying you with enough firepower, but choosing the right attachments and loadouts for both multiplayer and battle royale are essential for getting the most out of this weapon. - Claire Jackson Read More
