Lineage II Revolution is an enormously successful mobile MMO by Netmarble and is currently only available in Korea. However, this week 11 more countries will be blessed with the release of Lineage II Revolution. Unfortunately, none of them are in Europe.

Lineage II Revolution is a mobile MMO that comes as a glossy title with Unreal Engine and complex gameplay. So far, the game is only available in Korea, where it has seen gigantic success and has already grossed over 170 million US dollars.

Now the mobile success MMO is set to release in 11 more countries.

Lineage II Revolution – The big Asia release

On June 14, Lineage Eternal is set to launch in the following Asian countries:

  • Taiwan
  • Hong Kong
  • Macao
  • Singapore
  • Brunei
  • Cambodia
  • Laos
  • Malaysia
  • Myanmar
  • Philippines
  • Thailand
lineage 2 revolution 01

In Japan, the game will not launch until the third quarter and China will receive it only at the end of the year due to ongoing political tensions. And even though Lineage II Revolution continues to be successful with over 2 million registered players, it is slowly facing competition. NCSoft has developed its own Lineage for mobile devices: Lineage M.

This is set to release on June 21 in Korea. In contrast to Lineage II Revolution, Lineage M is fully developed by NCSoft, while Revolution is a licensed product, where NCSoft only collects royalties.

Lineage II Revolution – Europe release not until the end of the year

Contrary to initial rumors about a June launch of Lineage II Revolution in Europe and North America the game is now said to arrive later.

lineage 2 revolution 04

According to Korean media, the West release is planned for no earlier than the fourth quarter of 2017. Due to strong competition in Korea, much depends on the international success of the game for Netmarble.


What do you think about Lineage 2 Revolution? Are you eagerly anticipating the game, or are you not a big fan of mobile gaming? Or would you prefer the competing product Lineage M? Let us know your opinion in the comments!

Beyond Good and Evil 2 will be “like GTA in space”

Beyond Good and Evil 2 aims high. Players are promised nothing less than a “GTA in space.”

Hardly any game has taken as long to announce a sequel as the action-adventure Beyond Good and Evil. The original was released in 2003, at a time when MMOs were still largely in their infancy and “photorealistic graphics” were science fiction.

Meanwhile, the gaming industry has changed, and technology has advanced in leaps. This means that Beyond Good and Evil 2, which was presented yesterday at E3, needs new elements in gameplay and a more expansive game world. During the presentation, Michel Ancel from the development team spoke about Beyond Good and Evil 2 and explained that everything is much bigger than in the first game.

They even worked for three years solely on the technology to create a game world of this size, allowing players to explore space and travel between planets.

“But the planets will not be empty. Nor will there be procedurally generated “whatever” planets. Real planets with cities and logical connections between the cities. And all the natural events you might have on the planets; gravity, moons, and all those things. We wanted to make sure before this presentation that we could deliver the things in the game that we are promising.”

However, the size of the game world that the trailer suggests is not just a visual effect for the presentation. The world is meant to be truly large and vibrant, with all the different locations.

Beyond Good and Evil 2 Shooting monkey wtfisthisgame

“You can walk out of the Chinese restaurant, then hop into your spaceship, over the planet’s atmosphere, from there to your gigantic spaceship, and then switch planets. All of this without loading times, and you can be attacked anywhere. It’s like GTA, but in space, three-dimensional.”

Whether Beyond Good and Evil can live up to its promises, we will probably only find out with the release. Actual “in-game footage” has not been seen yet.

Cortyn thinks: The statement makes me a bit skeptical because I find it hard to reconcile “Beyond Good and Evil” and GTA. I really hope that the game does not lose its charm, which it built up 14 years ago, because it was simply “different” from other adventure titles. It will surely be difficult to match the successes of the past and to surpass a game that has now been nostalgically praised. Please do not be a “GTA in space,” Beyond Good and Evil 2. Please.

The Division is missing at E3 – Fans disappointed, Ubisoft reassures

What’s next for The Division? There was no answer to this question at E3.

For some time now, agents have been waiting for an announcement about what the future of The Division will look like. What content will specifically come in Year 2? Will there be a Year 3 or is a “The Division 2” in the works? Does the Division franchise even have a future?

As Massive and Ubisoft have hardly spoken about the future of the shooter in recent weeks and months, many fans speculated that they would finally reveal something at E3 2017. A cool trailer to hype things up again, or at least some information about what to look forward to.

division-agent-grimmig

But nothing. Neither at the Ubisoft conference nor at the press conferences of Microsoft or Sony was “The Division” mentioned even once.

The Division was not mentioned at all

Many agents are now quite disappointed. In the reddit forum, the posts that express users’ disappointment and frustration are getting the most upvotes. One player writes that he didn’t expect much, but the fact that they didn’t even mention The Division is tough.

However, there was not only a lack of mention of The Division. Other “Tom Clancy” games like Rainbow Six Siege also had no presence at E3.

division-last-stand-agenten

What’s going on with these Clancy games? Is there still work being done on them?

Ubisoft takes care of all Clancy games

In an interview on Youtube Live, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot was asked if there are plans for the future of the Clancy games.

He replied that he couldn’t say much about it. He assures, however, that Ubisoft is taking care of all Clancy games. It’s just that they currently have a lot of games on their list, but The Division and Rainbow Six are still being played. The player numbers are still very high. All Clancy games will continue.

division-splinter-cell

In the end, Guillemot emphasizes that they will not forget Splinter Cell either.

There are already rough details about the near future of The Division. Update 1.7 is scheduled for summer, which will have a PTS phase in advance on all platforms. Global events and Commendations are coming. This week, Massive wants to provide more information about the Commendations.

How do you feel about The Division not being present at E3 2017?

Sea of Thieves für PC mit höheren FPS und Ultra-Widescreen-Support

At E3, the upcoming pirate online game Sea of Thieves was showcased. The developers have now shared some details about the PC version.

So far, nothing has been seen of the PC version of the online game Sea of Thieves. The developers have concentrated on the Xbox One version. However, as Microsoft explains, there is also a dedicated PC version in development. Sea of Thieves for PC is not just a port of the Xbox One version but a version being developed in parallel.

Sea of thieves

PC version offers more customization options

Those who want to play Sea of Thieves on PC will not be subjected to a framerate lock. There is no FPS limit. Additionally, ultra-wide screen monitors are supported, and 4K resolution is also part of the package.

This means that the PC version of the game offers more customization options and can be better tailored to individual needs. The team is currently working on a special control scheme for mouse and keyboard, ensuring that Sea of Thieves can be effectively controlled with these input devices. This can be tested during the technical alphas.

Test the PC version in the technical alpha

The online game will be released in early 2018. If you want to be part of one of the technical alpha phases and try out the PC version of Sea of Thieves, then sign up on the official website. With a bit of luck, you will be selected for the test.

GTA 5 Online Gunrunning Update Download, Patch Size, PS4, Xbox One, PC

Players who want to try out the new content of the Gunrunning update for GTA 5 Online only need to download the free patch. The update is now available on all platforms and ready for download.

Download size: The Gunrunning update for GTA 5 Online is approximately 1.79 GB on PC (around 2.2 GB on Steam). On PS4 and Xbox One, the update size is also about 2 GB.

Prices of Gunrunning DLC Content

Many players already suspected when the update was announced that the new prices would be particularly high. Initial screenshots show that some of the new vehicles are really expensive.

Update: You can find the prices of the bunkers and vehicles in this overview

The rocket motorcycle, for example, costs from about 2.6 million GTA dollars, the armored “APC” vehicle is available from 2.3 million GTA dollars for purchase at Warstock. The anti-aircraft trailer costs a whopping 1.4 million GTA$.

The mobile command center, which is supposed to give you access to many features of the update while on the go, is available from 1.2 million GTA dollars. Presumably, this is the base version, which you will then need to upgrade with cool features.

Bunkers are available in various versions in the game. A bunker as a base version in Raton Canyon costs around 1.4 million GTA$. It also offers the possibility for upgrades. A well-equipped Grand Senora Oilfields bunker costs over 2 million dollars. Here, the location and environment will likely influence the price of the building, as has already been seen with warehouses or drug labs in GTA 5 Online.

Destiny 2 – Der PlayStation-exklusive Content

In Destiny 2, the PlayStation-exclusive content is well known. These contents are available exclusively on PS4 for at least one year.

At Sony’s E3 press conference, the PlayStation-exclusive content was revealed. Thanks to a marketing deal between Sony and Activision, PS4 Guardians can look forward to these additional contents:

destiny-2-exklusiver-strike

Lake of Shadows – Exclusive Strike: You will go to the European Dead Zone, where you must face the Taken. The Strikes in Destiny 2 are cooperative activities for three players, just like in Destiny 1.

Exclusive Armor Pieces:

  • The Titan receives “Terra Concord”:
    destiny-2-exklusiver-titan
  • The Warlock gets “Tesseract Trace IV”:
    destiny-2-exklusive-warlock
  • The Hunter receives “Icarus Drifter”:
    destiny-2-exklusive-jäger
destiny-2-exklusives-schiff

Exclusive to PS4 is a ship called City Apex:

destiny-2-exklusive-map

A PvP map: Retribution. This seems to take place on a ship high up:

destiny-exklusive-waffe

And particularly exciting: there is an exclusive, exotic weapon. It is called Borealis. It is a sniper that can switch elemental damage (Solar, Arc, Void) at will. The appearance of the weapon changes as well:

Here you can see the contents and various versions of the exotic weapon in the video:

How long are the PS4-exclusive contents exclusive?

Update: The contents will be released in 2018 for Xbox and PC.

The time exclusivity lasts for at least one year. All these contents will be available exclusively on PS4 until “at least Fall 2018”. The past has shown that the word “at least” is important. Because the exclusive contents from September 2015 are still not available on Xbox.

The deal between Sony and Activision for Destiny 2 strongly resembles the deal for Destiny 1. There were also PlayStation-exclusive weapons, armor pieces, PvP maps, ships, and a strike.

By the way: The video currently (June 13) has more negative ratings than positive on YouTube. No one is really happy about Xbox players being excluded from this content. Because “at least one year” is a long time.

What do you think about the PS4-exclusive content?

Destiny 2 will be released on September 6, 2017 on PS4 and Xbox One, and on October 24 for PC.

Skull & Bones: Ubisoft brings open-world pirate MMO – beta is coming

At E3, Ubisoft announced a completely new game, the open-world pirate game Skull & Bones. In it, you play as a pirate captain in the 18th century and roam the Indian Ocean. There will be PvE, PvP, and a campaign. And a beta will be coming soon!

Skull & Bones – Black Flag Inspired

Anyone who played Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag back then will remember the thrilling sea battles you fought as a pirate against your enemies. The developers at Ubisoft also had a lot of fun with it. They enjoyed the pirate battles so much that they developed a completely own game around the naval battles: Skull & Bones, which was introduced last night at E3.

Skull & Bones: Ship Types as Classes

Skull & Bones is set in the 18th century in the Indian Ocean. This is where piracy flourished at the time. Your character is an aspiring young captain who wants to start a career as a pirate here. The game offers you a sleek ship that comes in one of three classes:

  • Frigates are resilient and well-armed. They are good tanks at close range that shield other ships.
  • Brigantines are fast and maneuverable. They quickly catch up and ravage the enemy by firing at close range and ramming when necessary.
  • Sloops are the lightest ships in the game, capable of firing at long distances, making them hard to hit.
Skulls and bones 02

Skull & Bones: PvE or PvP?

With your ship, you will immediately unsettle the seas of the open world and either lurk for merchant ships in PvE or hunt other pirates in contested waters (the PvP zone) in 5vs5 battles.

In PvE, you follow a vertical progression. The more you loot, the better your reputation. This, in turn, gives you access to increasingly valuable targets.

In the PvP mode, Ubisoft wants to regulate progression differently. Progression here is more horizontal, so that all players can enjoy and no one becomes too powerful.

Also cool: With plenty of customization options, every pirate ship should look unique. This way, you should be able to recognize from a distance that a particularly bloodthirsty pirate has just appeared by its silhouette and flag.

Skull & Bones: Weather Effects, Pirate Fleets, and Solo Campaigns

Skulls and bones 10

The battles in Skull & Bones are not only fought with cannons and ships. The sea itself also plays a role, as wind, weather, and currents significantly affect the behavior of your sailor. For example, you can outmaneuver the opponent or lure them into an unfavorable current. When fleeing from pirate hunters, it is sometimes necessary to sail through a storm or to risk an escape through a treacherous reef.

Skull & Bones is clearly designed as a multiplayer game where you and other captains simultaneously unsettle the seas and can even form real fleets with other players.

Skulls and bones 04

Such fleet operations resemble raids in other MMOs, only instead of taking down a dragon, you’re dismantling a merchant convoy with escort protection.

Ubisoft has also announced a solo campaign in which you follow a story and regularly encounter recurring characters. Additionally, various naval powers of the era and the feared Dutch East India Company will make your life difficult. Ubisoft will reveal more information about the campaign at a later date.

Skull & Bones: Beta Sign-Up and Release Date

Skulls and bones 06

If you are already excited about Skull & Bones, unfortunately, you will have to wait a bit longer. Because Ubisoft’s pirate game is currently planned for the fall of 2018. It will be released on PC as well as Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Enhanced versions for Xbox One X or PS4 Pro are also planned.

If you can’t wait until 2018, you can already sign up for the Skull & Bones beta using the given link and set sail much earlier. When the beta will start, however, is still unknown.

Pokémon GO: Fire and Ice Event – These Pokémon will appear more frequently

During the Fire and Ice event in Pokémon GO (Solstice event), you will find more Pokémon of the mentioned types. These monsters are included.

To celebrate summer in the Northern Hemisphere and winter in the Southern Hemisphere, the Fire and Ice event starts in Pokémon GO. You will be rewarded during the Solstice event with the more frequent appearance of Fire and Ice Pokémon in the wild.

We will show you which monsters belong to the mentioned types that you will find more frequently in the wild in the coming days.

Fire Pokémon Overview

Pokémon GO Fire Ice

After there were already more frequently found Water-, Rock-, and Grass Pokémon in the wild during past events, the new event continues now with Fire Pokémon. Together with Ice-type monsters, you will find them more frequently on your adventures in the coming days.

To let you know which Fire monsters will appear more frequently during the Solstice event in Pokémon GO, we show you an overview of them:

  • Charmander, Charmeleon, Charizard*
  • Cyndaquil, Quilava, Typhlosion*
  • Vulpix, Ninetales*
  • Growlithe, Arcanine*
  • Ponita, Rapidash*
  • (Eevee, Flareon)*
  • Houndour, Houndoom*
  • Slugma, Magcargo
  • Magmar*

Eevee and Flareon are listed in parentheses because it is uncertain how the more frequent spawning of these Pokémon will behave. Normally, Eevee is a “Normal” type and should therefore not appear more frequently. However, there is a Flareon shown on the official artwork for this event. Therefore, there could be more frequent Eevee spawns leading to Flareon.

How to evolve Eevee into Flareon, Jolteon, or Vaporeon using the name trick, you can find out here.

Ice Pokémon Overview

Until June 20, you have the opportunity to catch many monsters of the “Ice” type and add them to your collection. Which Ice Pokémon could appear more frequently during the event, our Ice Overview:

  • Seel, Dewgong
  • Clamperl, Huntail*

Monster Hunter World: Release for PS4, Xbox One and PC – Trailer

The franchise Monster Hunter is finally coming to Europe and the USA. Monster Hunter World offers 4-player multiplayer action, with a release planned for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. We have information about the gameplay and the trailer.

The Monster Hunter franchise is incredibly popular in Japan: The problem is that Monster Hunter never really made the jump to consoles and PC. The franchise is mainly represented in Asia and on handheld consoles. The title “Monster Hunter Online” was indeed for PC, but it was not released here in Europe, and a fan translation into English has failed. So far, Monster Hunter has not really been available for our “mainstream gaming” market.

That is set to change now. Capcom is bringing “Monster Hunter World” to us in Europe as well. The game was announced yesterday at the Sony press conference.

Link to the YouTube content

Monster Hunter means: big swords, even bigger monsters. The franchise lives from the fact that the battles against huge beasts are at the center, and players must prepare for this. They carve up defeated monsters and create armor and weapons from their parts for the next battle. Then they devise a strategy, consider the environment and the unique abilities of the beast, and take it down – at least that’s the plan.

Monster Hunter World – Coop for 4 players – Gameplay information

The key information about Monster Hunter World:

  • The game supports 4-player coop in an “online multiplayer system” that is supposed to function across regions, meaning Japan and the West can play together
  • There is a crafting and skill system
  • Players embark on an adventure journey to slay monsters and become the ultimate hunter
MonsterHUnter World Roter
  • The transition between map areas is seamless.
  • There is a day-night cycle
  • The environment is important and must be considered
MonsterHunder World Pic

Release date for PS4, Xbox One, and PC – What about the Switch?

The game is supposed to be released worldwide simultaneously – early in 2018 on PS4 and Xbox One – the PC will take a bit longer. There is no information yet about a port for the Nintendo Switch. So it looks bad.

Starlink: Toy and Open-World Action Game in One – Trailer

With the game Starlink, Ubisoft announced an interesting game concept at E3: Starlink is an open-world action game with an amiibo-like collection and toy system.

Starlink places you in a distant solar system, which you can explore freely with your spaceship. As in No Man’s Sky, the transitions between space and planets are seamless. However, it is not possible to exit the ship and wander around. You remain – except for cutscenes – always aboard the vessel.

In the solar system, a so-called Legion is spreading, a dark power that threatens to destroy everything. Your task is: to stop the Legion.

starlink screenshot

Starlink: Game offers space battles with modular ships

In doing so, you face off against the villains in space and also on the seven planets, each featuring different landscapes. Action-packed battles are therefore in the foreground. However, tactics are of utmost importance. It is possible to modify your spaceship “on the fly.” This works through an amiibo-like system.

starlink story

You plug the spaceship into your controller, which gets recognized and taken over by the game. You can now attach various modules to the ship, such as more powerful weapons, better hulls, new wings, or a different crew.

New modules and new ships planned – Here is the E3 trailer for Starlink

These changes will be immediately transferred to the ship in the game and provide you with different attributes. This way, you can react directly to changing situations. For example, if you notice in battle that your weapons are hardly dealing damage, you simply swap them out on the spaceship model, and the ship in the game adopts these changes, allowing you to continue fighting more effectively.

Ubisoft plans to regularly release new spaceships and modules for sale. No information has yet been revealed about a multiplayer mode. Starlink is set to be released in autumn 2018 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.

Overwatch: Reinhardt verbuggt – Blizzard verspricht rettenden Patch

The latest patch of Overwatch has taken a heavy toll on the knight Reinhardt. He is faltering, as his hammer is relentlessly bugged.

The anniversary of Overwatch is over, but not all the aftermaths have subsided yet. Patch 1.11 of Overwatch not only brought the Anniversary event but also implemented some bizarre bugs into the game. The most annoying one affects the German knight Reinhardt. According to numerous community members, the tank has become “unplayable”.

No balance changes were made to Reinhardt. Instead, a bug has crept in for players who have a latency of 40 or higher. All of Reinhardt’s abilities have a significant delay. This applies not only to the fire strike and his ultimate but also to his melee attack. Although the animation is already playing, damage or a hit is calculated only much later – and only if the action has not been interrupted by then.

If you, for instance, sheathe the hammer to hold the shield back up, then a strike is not calculated correctly, even if it has been fully executed (according to the animation).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIU5hncMsuc

In the official forum, Jeff Kaplan has now spoken out and confirmed this error. According to him, Reinhardt’s hammer with all its animations will be fully usable again starting with patch 1.12. The error was “quite complicated” and thus it was not so easy to pinpoint the problem.

However, there is still no concrete release date for patch 1.12.

Overwatch Eichenwalde Reinhardt
Reinhardt in retirement – the hammer is bugged!

Cortyn says: Fortunately, I am not affected by this bug, but I regularly see other Reinhardts “lagging around me” and their movements are so strange that animations and actual hits simply do not match. Hopefully patch 1.12 will be released soon, as for many players it is almost unbearable to have a Reinhardt on the team or even to play one themselves.

Considering how pivotal a Reinhardt is for a group’s success, the frustration is easy to understand.

WoW: Attention! New Legendaries drop in the “small” 940 version

The new Legendaries in World of Warcraft (WoW) might upset some players – but only for a short time. Those who are lucky now are actually unlucky!

Almost two and a half months have passed since the last update of World of Warcraft, and the developers are keeping their promise to regularly deliver fresh content. With patch 7.2.5, there are a few new content snippets, such as the scenario about the deaths of Chromie or the Timewalking in the Black Temple.

WoW Legendary Rings Talents

For many players, however, the numerous new legendary items may serve as an incentive to engage more in PvE and PvP content. In particular, the new rings that grant special talents may make the heart of one or another character race.

However, players should be cautious about farming Legendaries “too eagerly”. With the release of patch 7.2.5 on June 14, legendary items will still drop at item level 940. Only with the opening of the Tomb of Sargeras, a week later (on June 21 for “Normal” and “Heroic”), will the base item level of legendary items be increased. This also applies to the new rings!

So anyone who gets a Legendary in the week between June 14 and June 21 will have to upgrade it through a quest to item level 970 afterwards. Anyone who acquires an orange item later will receive it directly at the highest level.

Basically, this means: Anyone who is lucky immediately after the patch is actually unlucky. Completing the upgrade quest will likely take a week or two.

What else patch 7.2.5 will have to offer, we have detailed in this article.

Ghaul welcomes you in a world without light. He tells you that you are weak and undisciplined, hiding like cowards behind walls.

He, on the other hand, is quite someone special: He commands legions, has conquered worlds, and waged war. Therefore, he is worthy and claims the light of the Traveler for himself. He wants to show you what dread means.

He really puts a Guardian through the wringer in the trailer. But the Guardian rises again and takes up arms. Now it is time to challenge Ghaul and reclaim the light.

Beyond Good and Evil 2 Trailer – Adventure hit gets a successor!

The adventure legend Beyond Good and Evil is getting a sequel. We have the first cinematic trailer for the announcement of Beyond Good and Evil 2 here for you.

The youngest among you may hardly remember, but there was a time when faces in video games were significantly more angular and not everything was solved with pure firepower. Female protagonists (besides Lara Croft) were a rarity. In 2003, “Beyond Good and Evil” was released, an action-adventure that set many new standards.

A mix of adventure and stealth game, combined with a compelling storyline, ensures that the game remains ingrained in the minds of gamers even after 14 years. Instead of firepower, the protagonist and reporter Jade had only her camera to defend herself against enemies.

At E3, the first trailer for “Beyond Good and Evil 2” was presented! Watch it here:

In a more detailed analysis video of the first trailer, developer Michel Ancel reveals even more details about the game. It will be a prequel to “Beyond Good and Evil 2” – the historical predecessor of the old game. Veterans will be able to uncover many connections and find out why the world in the first part turned out the way it ultimately did.

Beyond Good and Evil 2 with Multiplayer

But another piece of information came up on the side. Apparently, Beyond Good and Evil 2 will feature a multiplayer mode. The vehicles shown in the trailer can be occupied and controlled by several players. Depending on the position one takes, different actions are possible. A few hot chases are also likely to be part of it.

At the end of the trailer, there’s a little surprise. In close-up, we see the face of a young lady with green eyes, who strikingly resembles Jade, the protagonist of the first part.

Whether she is part of it again is still unclear. For veterans, however, this should be a quite good emotional connection to re-enter the game world so many years later.

If you haven’t played the classic “Beyond Good and Evil” yet, there should still be enough time to catch up. The original Beyond Good and Evil is available for just about €5 on Steam.
