Those numbers are slanted because most game scenes are inclusive for casual players, but some are bigger than others. $1,000,000 of Quake Champions ' $1,013.988 comes from just two major tournaments whereas Counter Strike: Global Offensive 's $10,728,225 comes from 510 tournaments. Both are impressive, but both aren't supportive of growing, thriving, and healthy player-ba

“With our first game Rend , we are delivering on the fantasy players expect from a survival game while also challenging the traditional mold by introducing new experiences and solving many of the genre’s accepted player pain points. Our team has been fortunate to work at many of the industry’s leading studios throughout our careers so we have learned valuable key lessons along the way that we are now applying to our studio’s development philosophy and game making proce
I tried out several Champions through multiple rounds. My first go-around involved Lux, specifically the Lady of Luminosity version. This passive ability allows you to draw a card after playing a spell that costs five or more, which can ramp you up in the mid-game significantly, provided that you've set yourself up for success at that po

Upgrade your faction's technology in many different directions as you go, giving you the ability to craft more and more powerful weapons and armor. Uncover the secrets of the spirit world to bind vanquished creatures to you as mountable companions, and unlock powerful magics to bolster your abilit
At this point, it's simply a matter of timing a straight line run of one of the map's street, a couple of equations, and we come up with a rough result: the map you see above measures approximately 2,246 meters by 2,188 meters. That's 3.73 square kilometers or 1.44 square miles. Yes. I know, it was pretty sm
Back in October 2012, Riot Games happily announced that they had 12 million players signing on to play League of Legends each day . That's not registered users in total - that's actual player activity on a daily basis. Impressive? Now they have 27 million players playing daily, more than double that 2012 number. No wonder the game dominates the livestream charts of Twitc
League of Legends has been around the block and back when it comes to mixed media ventures. Some of them have worked out like Arcane , others haven't. Many are still on the way , like Riftbound , the League of Legends -themed trading card g
In cased you missed it in late January, Naughty Dog confirmed that there will be no more story DLC coming for The Last of Us. The Left Behind DLC coming out on February 14 will be the last of the story. Now we await news of whether or not the strategy game Forums|https://strategynewsbase.com/ will release on PS4 and whether or not we'll be getting a seq
Dean Evans, creative director of Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon spoke to Polygon to share some of his other, more crazy game ideas he had before Ubisoft let him construct the lovable retro downloadable spinoff we know as Blood Dragon . Evans says he's working on a “dream project” with a “dream team” - something they've all wanted to do and now finally can. It's based in a “compelling and unique universe” and because of the success of Blood Dragon, Ubisoft is giving him plenty of creative freedom. Read the great interview at Polygon for m
(Image: https://www.freepixels.com/class=)Sucker Punch never officially mentioned (at least to my knowledge) the precise size of the map of the game, but we can still obtain a rough measurement. First of all, we rebuilt the map in a handy image format, since the game never shows the full th
One of the surprise hits of E3 2013 and a game we quickly fell in love with was Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare . Think Dungeon Defenders but with far improved and polished graphics thanks to it being built on the Frostbite 3 game engine. We found out last week that on Xbox One, EA is delivering fans an exclusive mode called 'Battle for brainz.' The strange part is that this is the only splitscreen mode in the game, pitting two plants against waves of incoming zombies. That's right, only one platform will have splitscreen for Garden Warfare . Next-gen? Why wouldn't the game support splitscreen multiplayer for all its modes on all consoles? Especially a super simple wave-based survival mode we've seen in dozens of game
There's no denying that eSports will continue to rapidly grow for the foreseeable future. Playerunknown's Battlegrounds ' eSports community is only just getting started, the huge, expensive Overwatch League doesn't start until next year, League of Legends is franchising its North American league next year, and it feels like a AAA game isn't launched these days without some consideration for eSpo
