Bobby Anhalt — Wed, 20 Dec 2023 02:31:11 GMT

The Finals developer Embark Studios has commented on the recent cheating issues that have been plaguing the new free-to-play shooter and promises that a fix is on the way. In the past few days, the problem has reached a boiling point in the community as fans have even asked The Finals devs to region-lock China since many of the reported cheaters have been using Mandarin names. Of course, this proposed solution isn't one the team at Embark Studios is likely to move forward with, as The Finals' community manager explained that many of these players aren't actually Chinese; rather, these players use Mandarin names so they will be more difficult to report.

Christian Miller — Wed, 20 Dec 2023 00:52:28 GMT

Thanks to no small amount of effort, a Starfield player managed to assemble an impressive outpost after 330 hours of playtime. Though Starfield has a mixed rating on Steam, with more negative than positive reviews left by its players in the last 30 days, Bethesda's latest sandbox features a few aspects that received near-universal praise at launch, with its ship builder in particular standing tall above the rest. From making original concepts to recreating their favorite starships, Starfield players sunk countless hours into the feature, and while the outpost system isn't as refined by comparison, it still managed to attract the same kind of creativity.

There Are Two Clear Contenders For Overwatch 2’s Video Game Crossover

Richard Warren — Tue, 19 Dec 2023 23:41:45 GMT

Thus far, Overwatch 2 has experienced tremendous success with its collaborations. First, there was One-Punch Man, which came with some immensely popular skins for Kiriko, Soldier: 76, Genji, and Doomfist, as well as a charming trailer and menu screen inspired by the anime. As soon as players grew tired of pulling off Doomfist’s Rocket Punch while dressed as Saitama, the next collaboration took place, which saw Blizzard adding content based on Diablo, one of its other franchises. A thrilling Trials of Sanctuary PvE experience combined with standout skins like Lilith Moira made the event memorable, with the LE SSERAFIM K-Pop collaboration coming shortly after. It also provided an LTM in addition to a music video and five wildly popular skins.
