PCGamesN Saturday, November 26, 2022 1:17 PM  Time flies when you're having fun, and the Overwatch 2 Season 2 release date is sooner than you might think. With it, we can expect a new battle pass, map, and plenty of cosmetic skins to spend your hard-earned Overwatch coins on. Season 2 also coincides with the debut of the latest Overwatch 2 tank hero, Ramattra. Overwatch 2 got off to a bumpy start, but the multiplayer game has quickly found its footing, with the welcome debut of Kiriko, Sojourn, and Junker Queen to mark the sequel's release. However, the big question is whether or not Blizzard can sustain this momentum for a second season. Here's everything we know about Overwatch 2 Season 2 ahead of its upcoming release date, including a full breakdown of Ramattra's abilities.

Blizzard has spilled all the juicy details on hero 36, who will be joining the roster along with the Overwatch 2 Season 2 release date. While we already had a decent idea what to expect of the Ramattra abilities, ultimate, and Nemesis form, getting to see one of the biggest Overwatch 2 characters in action for the first time is certainly a sight to behold.

PCGamesN Saturday, November 26, 2022 10:34 AM  Apex Legends cheaters and Battlefield 2042 frauds could be among those targeted by a new EA patent aimed at curbing collusion in its multiplayer games. The recently published patent proposes a system to detect when players who are on ostensibly opposing teams are working together or intentionally avoiding conflict for mutual benefit. While some battle royale games and other multiplayer modes allow for temporary teamwork, such as the Unhinged BR Trios mode in the Warzone 2.0 side of the latest Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, collaboration in other games can ruin the enjoyment of legitimate players.

PCGamesN Saturday, November 26, 2022 10:26 AM  The Warzone 2 movement exploits just won't stop, will they? The FPS game has been out for less than a month and already there's a new movement trick almost everyday. It's almost like there's a race to come up with something, name it, and claim ownership of the exploit before it's patched by the likes of Raven Software. I don't have anything outright against movement exploits in multiplayer games like Warzone 2, to be clear, but it already feels like the battle royale's movement has jumped the shark.

PCGamesN Saturday, November 26, 2022 7:16 AM  A Dota 2 bug is playing havoc with the new Dota 2 Razor arcana, giving the crackling carry hero a distinct advantage in certain matchups when wearing the fancy new skin in Valve's MOBA game, causing players to call it a "pay to win" item. As consistently one of the most played games on Steam, reaching over one million concurrent Dota 2 players again in November, any notable Dota 2 bugs are likely to completely mess with the meta and see the hero banned or abused, so hopefully Valve will patch this issue quickly.

The next Capcom Cup now has an official start date. With the official Capcom Pro Tour for this year in progress, the closing event of the series is set for early in 2023. The Capcom Cup IX, as it's being called, will happen in the middle of February 2023. The previous Capcom Cup event was cancelled due to COVID-19 concerns, so it's returning after a year-long absence. This is also where Capcom plans to close the official competitive legacy of Street Fighter V. Capcom uploaded a trailer for the Capcom Cup IX, as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wx_0sDbq3g The new trailer for the Capcom Cup IX puts special emphasis on the fact that the event will act as an official closer for Street Fighter V. The tournament will be held at the Avalon Hollywood & Bardot in Los Angeles, California. It'll be divided into several phases, beginning with the Last-Chance Qualifiers on February 12-13, 2023. The Last-Chance Qualifiers (LCQs) are held to fill out the last spot in the 32-person bracket. The LCQs are followed by the Group Stage Elimination round, held from February 14-16, 2023. Then come the Street Fighter League World Championship 2022 competition, on February 17-18, 2023. Finally, the Capcom Cup IX World Finals happen on February 19, 2023, leaving a single winner crowned champion. Besides competitive action, these events are also home to many pivotal announcements from the publisher. With Street Fighter 6 looming as the company's next major fighting game release, it's likely that the Capcom Cup IX will see a narrowing of the game's release window. It's currently set for Spring 2023, but a more specific date could surface at the tourney's end. Capcom may event take the opportunity to announce something completely new, as well. The Capcom Cup IX will run from February 12 to 19, 2023. Tickets are available via EventBrite, and registrations for the Last-Chance Qualifiers can be done through the Capcom Pro Tour Website.

Gungrave G.O.R.E. just released, and it's a resurrection of sorts for a relatively obscure series that last appeared in a notable way on the PlayStation 2. It preserves much of the gameplay that marked the originals out as a distinctive fusion of shooter and character action game, bringing it forward into the present day with a new, updated look. But it wasn't always that way for developer Iggymob's take on Beyond the Grave's violent adventures. Just ahead of the game's release, Siliconera had a chance to ask General Director Kay Kim about the game, its origins, inspirations, and what they've been doing since 2017, when the game was first announced. Josh Tolentino: What was the biggest inspiration for you when designing a new look for Grave? Kay Kim: From the game, the previous Gungrave franchise was the most inspiring source, and from movies, the film Equilibrium was the most inspiring. The Gunkata action by Christian Bale is still amazing to watch. Jenni Lada: What sorts of challenges did you face when working on Gungrave G.O.R.E? Kim: I think that there is nothing easy about developing a game. Everything is difficult. Especially at the time when mobile games were the main platforms in Korea, console game developers like us had hard time finding investment. At the time, there were only six people left in the team making the game. We didn't give up on achieving the dream, and because of that endurance, we ended up meeting great partners, reinforcing the team, and coming this far. Lada: Gungrave G.O.R.E.'s been in development since 2017. How has the game and your designs changed over the years? Did the extended development issue afford you any additional opportunities to refine your characters? Kim: At first, the game was designed to be half open world and it was terrible. It was strange for Grave to search and have conversations. We were benchmarking the trending games at the time, and it became this freak of a game. So we have set the game to go beyond the original Gungrave design, and now it looks like what we are seeing today. We have refined the character since to make them look better. Lada: What was the most challenging part of Grave's design to bring to life in Gungrave G.O.R.E.? Kim: It wasn't as difficult as one would think. We have worked with [original Gungrave Character Designer Yasuhiro Nightow] deeply in many ways, so we could develop the character design quite easily. Tolentino: The original Gungrave game was adapted into an anime series. Are there any plans to produce Gungrave stories outside of Gungrave G.O.R.E.? Kim: Making Gungrave G.O.R.E. a successful entry to the franchise is our main focus right now. We'll be able to discuss many future ideas about it later. Tolentino: Aside from your own characters, who is your favorite fictional gunslinger? I like Christian Bale from Equilibrium the most. He is so amazing. Gungrave G.O.R.E. is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The post Interview: Gungrave G.O.R.E. was Once a 'Freak' of a Game appeared first on Siliconera. |
