Titled “My Response,” the short video is devoid of PewDiePie’s trademark shock humor, and directly addresses his use of a racial slur. The YouTuber begins by saying that he always found the use of inappropriate racial slurs by other players “immature and stupid” before conceding that he hates how he “personally fed into that part of gaming as well.” PewDiePie continues by saying that his use of a racial slur had “slipped out” in the heat of the moment and that he’s “disappointed” in himself because this latest incident demonstrates that he has “learned nothing” from all his past controversi
On top of the mobile game and the landmark PC release, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is also scheduled to make its console debut sooner rather than later. As announced at E3 earlier this year, PUBG is releasing in early access as an Xbox One console exclusive on December 12th. Out of all the versions of the game, it will be interesting to see which one becomes the most popular when it’s all said and d
Bluehole seems to have an especially broad demographic in mind with Ascent: Infinite Realm . The trailer practically shouts that there’s something here for everyone: Dragons to hunt, flying aircrafts to pilot (and destroy), properties and communities to build, and more. It’ll be up to Bluehole, though, to ensure that it doesn’t spread itself too thin; that each element is sufficiently fleshed-out to warrant the repeated revisiting that maintains successful online games. Lightning struck once with PUBG — it remains to be seen whether it’ll strike ag
It’s impossible to shake the feeling that they’re just one big advertisement, for both upcoming video games and other products. Sponsorships galore throughout the presentation, and trailers for upcoming games blare between almost every award. Imagine if the Oscars ran trailers for films coming in the next year, no one would take them seriou
“You probably won’t believe me when I say this but whenever I go online and I hear other players use the same kind of language I did, I always find it extremely immature and stupid. And I hate how I now personally fed into that part of gaming as well. It was something I said in the heat of the moment. I said the worst word I could possibly think of. And it just sort of slipped out. I’m not going to make any excuses as to why it did because there are no excuses for it. I’m disappointed in myself because it seems like I’ve learned nothing from all these past controversies. And it’s not that I think I can say or do whatever I want and get away with it. That’s not it at all. I’m just an idi
What most fans seem to agree on, though, is that they would like both games to coexist peacefully. They may include battle royale gameplay, but that doesn’t mean that there can only be one victor once this dispute is sett
Ascent: Infinite Realm’s site also lists the character classes that the game will offer: Sorceress, mystic, warlord, assassin, and gunslinger. They appear to fit into traditional RPG archetypes of mage, healer, warrior, thief/rogue, and hunter/marksman, respectively. Given how unconventional the rest of the game seems to be, it’s a bit surprising to see rather conventional options in the character creation department. Perhaps the future reveal of subclasses (each class will have two of them) will deepen and diversify gameplay opti
Formerly hosted by Spike as The Spike Video Game Awards, Keighley went on to produce his own independent award ceremony. Each year since its inception in 2014, a slew of games from that year have been nominated for various categories, ranging from Best Shooter or Best Mobile Game, to the more coveted Developer of the Year, and of course Game of the Year. The games are selected by a secret panel of some sort, with the winners being at least partially voted on by the pub
If the mobile port of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is high quality, it’s likely that the game will also make its way stateside and to other regions. After all, PUBG is one of the most popular video games currently available, shattering concurrent player records on Steam and selling over 20 million copies at last count. Considering its popularity, it would make sense for developer PUBG Corporation (a subsidiary of Bluehole) to bring it to as many platforms as possi
Ascent: Infinite Realm will be published by Kakao Games, publisher of Black Desert Online , another MMORPG. Bluehole has yet to announce a release date, but signs point to a closed beta beginning in the first half of 2018. And given pubg strategy‘s extended period of early-access (and how well it has worked out for the game), there’s reason to believe that Bluehole will take its time with formally launching **Ascent: Infinite Realm ** . The game will be shown off at the upcoming G-Star 2017 trade show in Busan, South Korea, which is set to take place from November 16 – 19. Expect more information t
