After a long wait, Bungie has finally revealed when Destiny 2 will be arriving on PC. When the game was first announced, only the Xbox One and PS4 versions got a release date, with nothing really set in stone for the PC version. All we knew is that it would be arriving later than its console counterparts.
There's no doubt that a lot of console players are excited for the launch of Destiny 2, but those who claim PC as their favorite platform have plenty of reason to be excited as well. While console players got to experience the first game in all of its (sometimes rough) glory, this will be the first shot PC players have at the series. That's a pretty big deal considering there was never any guarantee that Destiny would make its way to the platform, and now Bungie PC lead David Shaw is spilling more details on what we can expect from Destiny's first PC outing.
Today was a exciting day for Call of Duty fans, as Activision and Sledgehammer games revealed the first details about the incoming Call of Duty: WWII. This is a big entry because it'll be taking the franchise back to its roots after the series had become increasingly futuristic in recent years. Though Sledgehammer spoke mostly in general terms today, we did find out a number of interesting details - including the game's release date.
It was just over a day ago that Activision announced this year's Call of Duty title would in fact be Call of Duty: WWII, confirming weeks of previous of previous rumors, but that hasn't stopped more details on the upcoming FPS game from becoming public. While Activision's announcement was little more than confirmation of a title and theme, marketing materials have leaked with additional info on the game's story, a release date, and a new co-op mode.
As expected, Activision has revealed the next Call of Duty, and we're going back to World War II. Call of Duty: WWII will take us back to the series' beginnings, confirming information from a number of leaks ahead of this announcement. Activision itself even indicated something like this would happen earlier this year, when Activision hosted something of a year-in-review conference call with investors.
After a number of leaks and a lot of speculation, Destiny 2 was finally revealed earlier this week. Disappointingly, that reveal only amounted to a single tweet from Bungie, leaving out most of the important details. Today Bungie is righting that wrong and sharing more about the hotly anticipated game, including its platforms and release date.
We're three months into 2017 now, and, like clockwork, it's time to start speculating about this year's entry in the Call of Duty franchise. Kicking things off is a new leak that, if legitimate, indicates the immensely popular FPS series will be returning to its origins: a World War II setting. A series of marketing concepts were revealed in a video from the YouTube account TheFamilyVideoGamers, including a title of "Call of Duty: WWII."
There's still a lot we don't know about Destiny 2 aside from Bungie's intention to release sometime in fall 2017. That release window may have just been narrowed thanks to a leak from an Italian retailer. A promotional poster, of all things, may have just spilled the beans on the release date for one of the most anticipated games of the year.
It appears that we're getting a Call of Duty shake up in 2017. During Activision's most recent round of earnings, Call of Duty was a fairly hot topic. Even though it's still one of the biggest gaming franchises around, Activision feels the need to get back to basics this year, and here are a few things you should know about this decision.
Just a heads up: you may not want to buy Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare on PC through the Windows Store. For some reason, Activision has decided to make the Windows Store version of the game incompatible with other PC platforms. This means that if you have a Windows Store copy of the game, you won't be able to play multiplayer with those who purchased their game on Steam.
Now that the Switch reveal is in the books, it's time to talk about the most important thing: release titles. While it's impossible to know which Switch titles will be available right launch and which will be releasing within the critical first six months of the console's lifespan, we already have a decent idea of what to expect. That's thanks to a number of pre-reveal leaks and Nintendo's own footage from the Switch reveal trailer.
Last week, a tidbit of info surfaced suggesting gamers will need 130GB of free hard drive space to install Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered. Some, understandably, have balked at the figure, hoping it is incorrect. Put simply, it's not. At least not according to a new FAQ page Activision has published for the two games, which says the 130GB requirement is a high-end estimate, one that covers future map releases and game updates as well as the games themselves.
