Paramo has arrived with PUBG season 9 on PC, including a new small-scale map intended to add lots of variety. The new launch trailer, released today by PUBG Corp, showcases the map’s features and more. Paramo looks like a solid addition to the existing map roster, even if it’s only a small, 3×3 size affair. Paramo is set on an active volcano, somewhere in South America. The unique twist with this new PUBG map is that there are multiple versions of it, each with environmental differences....

PUBG recently concluded testing for a new type of game mode that should help prevent camping in the middle of safe zones. There’s nothing more frustrating than getting kitted up with the perfect loadout in PUBG only to find yourself miles away from the next safe zone. All that perfect gear is practically wasted, as you desperately speed across the map in order to avoid getting caught by the approaching blue wall of death....

Witches and warlocks, dust off your brooms because Broomstick League has a release date. The latest magical pastime is landing on Steam on March 5. Broomstick League is a simplified version of Harry Potter’s Quidditch with strong flavors of Rocket League thrown into the mix. It’s a wonderful combination if you ask me because Rocket League is chaotic and fun, while Quidditch looks like it would be awesome to play – the magical wizard version, not the one you sometimes see in parks....

At a current total of 16 characters, offensive Overwatch heroes undeniably have the lead over both Tank and Support heroes. It comes as no surprise that such a large number of heroes would also lead to a large number of skins available for each hero. This article will try to focus on legendary skins, (with one exception) as they are, understandably, the ones most often under critique by players....

Following the confirmation (because, let’s be honest, we all knew it was coming) Returnal is making the jump to PC, its PC specs have been detailed - and they have raised more than a few eyebrows. Unlike other big PlayStation releases, it is recommended that you have a colossal 32GB of RAM available on your PC to play Returnal at its best potential. For comparison, the Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves collection and Horizon Zero Dawn both recommend having 16GB of RAM available - that is the minimum of what Returnal asks for....

After a full year of production on season 3, the whirlwind of a press tour is coming to a close–with stops in LA, New York, and now at SXSW in Austin–and Adlon can see the homestretch....

Makoto is a star student and class president. She has a lot of pressure in life and thus, is one of the more serious characters....
