(Image: https://www.freepixels.com/class=)I wish I could put this higher, I really do. Overwatch 2 is the most fun I’ve had in an already fantastic team-based shooter in years. The new characters, 5v5, the fine-tuning - it’s all perfect. But I cannot justify praising the game any more than this when its terrible monetization actively ruins your experience with the gameplay. As it stands, it is mechanically some of the most fun I’ve had this year, it could have just been so much m
One of the immediate issues you will find when first playing Lifeweaver is that he has two basic attacks, his Healing Blossom to heal, and his Thorn Volley to damage. However, unlike a hero like Moira, Lifeweaver has to change weapons to alternate between healing and damage , which can feel very clunky to play, and difficult to work into a fi
The weapons are just as wild as you'd expect. One such shotgun, referred to as Major Fletcher, gets its own special reload animation. When in action, the character flips the gun in a complete spin backward and then quickly slams in two shells for a quick but sleek animat
This move becomes even more thrilling with weapons that stifle the flow of combat due to frequent or long reloads, like a shotgun. It's a bit of absolute magic and wonder, and it truly makes you feel unstoppable each and every t
Don’t let the visuals fool you, Gerda: A Flame in Winter is one of the most brutal games of the year. There is no winning, only survival. There is no strategizing, only hope and luck. Taking place in a German-occupied village in Denmark, you play as the titular heroine, Gerda, tasked with surviving and protecting your loved ones. There’s no combat because this is not a game about empowering you to live out a hero fantasy. The gameplay actively disempowers you, in fact. If you want Gerda to use a stat in conversation, you lose a point. She is an ordinary human being and will exert herself. She’s not made for this. Gerda might survive the trials she’s put through, but it’s up to you to see if her conscience will. Or if your values will make it through unscathed, for that mat
The Shadow Warrior series is one of the most ridiculously blood-soaked FPS games on the market. It revels in its absurdity. If you're looking for something ultra-campy and full of action, this is your next
Sonic, my sweet, misunderstood, bullied blue baby. You did it. You did a video game. And by God, Frontiers is the most video game-y video game in existence. You run around an invisible walled map to collect items, then collect more items to unlock minigames that help you collect the items you actually need. There are also some other items that can make getting the main item a bit easier. There’s no arrogance in Sonic Frontiers, just an understanding that Sonic running fast should be fun. It’s a bold first step into something new for the series, while still feeling uniquely ‘Sonic’ in a way other open worlds can’t man
The best you can hope for is hitting close-range headshots on retreating weaker heroes like Mercy or D.Va without her mech. While you’re doing this, try giving the beefy tank heroes a wide berth and do your best not to press reload out of muscle mem
Esperança's best position is in the house that overlooks the second half of the map. This spot gives you perfect vision over the objective after checkpoint A, while also giving you a reliable escape route to your team through the ho

Whilst many Anniversary skins like to celebrate the backstory of Overwatch character, this imaginative skin for Ashe prefers to tell us a familiar bedtime fairytale: that of Little Red Riding Hood. Ashe is redesigned into a much more combative version of Red, complete with leather harness and armor — and B.O.B. has become the Wolf, dressed in his tricksy 'Grandmother' garb. It's both easily recognizable and a fresh take on the t
With a hero roster of 37 different playable characters, in Overwatch 2 Story Mode 2 , it can be difficult to understand the mechanics and uses of each of them. Especially, when new maps are added, with character reworks, and, of course, the addition of new characters, all of these factors can make your head spin when trying to get a grasp on how to play the g
You can get to this spot either from the indoor staircase near the mega health pack or from the lounge staircase towards defender spawn. If you need to get to this spot quickly before another push, you can also simply use vertical mobility to jump back up to your posit
You can also use Life Grip in an even simpler form. Even though it has a cooldown of 20 seconds, making it one of the longest for a hero ability in the game, you don't have to only use it to save your team from enemy ultimates . With enough practice, you can get good at understanding when your teammates are about to die from a normal team fight and so, you can use your Life Grip then to pull them closer to you away from the damage, so that you can heal them before they go back and join in with the fi
