If you like Hunter x Hunter, in PUBG Mobile they have dedicated a whole month just for you

PUBG Mobile is not Fortnite, but it also collaborates with popular franchises. In fact, they tend to be more substantial and interesting. They are not limited to a handful of skins and a battle pass, making them more exciting for both fans of those franchises and players of the game itself.

PUBG Mobile is not Fortnite, but it also collaborates with popular franchises. In fact, they tend to be more substantial and interesting. They are not limited to a handful of skins and a battle pass, making them more exciting for both fans of those franchises and the players of the game itself. This is not only not the exception with their new collaboration with Hunter x Hunter, but they have also worked on it especially.

When, how, and what is coming from Hunter x Hunter to PUBG Mobile?

From now until December 7th, we can enjoy numerous customization options based on the popular manga and anime Hunter x Hunter. We can customize our characters with character sets of Gon Freecss, Killua Zoldyck, Kurapika, Leorio Paradinight, and Hisoka Morow, which even changes the aesthetics of their weapons to give the impression that they are using bungee gum with them, a detail that fans will find very amusing.

Especially because it doesn’t end there. They have also added a vehicle skin based on Leorio’s car, as we saw in the anime, in addition to numerous avatar profiles based on Hunter x Hunter.

As we have already mentioned, this collaboration is available until next December 7th. And furthermore, it is completely free. So you just have to dive into PUBG Mobile, which is available on both Android and iOS, to start shooting with some of the most iconic characters in the history of manga and anime.

Apex Legends is dying, is EA planning its sequel?

Apex Legends is a game that has always performed very well. Even if it has never reached the numbers of Fortnite, it is a game with a large following and has kept EA afloat for many years. That doesn’t change the fact that the game has suffered a tremendous decline in recent months. All of this is due to the terrible changes in monetization in its battle pass that, even after being reversed, have not managed to bring back the majority of players. Does this mean we are witnessing the arrival of an Apex Legends 2? It seems that the […]

Apex Legends is a game that has always performed very well. Even if it has never reached the numbers of Fortnite, it is a game with a great following and has kept EA afloat for many years. That doesn’t change the fact that the game has suffered a tremendous decline in recent months. All of this is due to the terrible changes in monetization in its battle pass that, even after being reversed, have not managed to bring back the majority of players. Does this mean we are witnessing the arrival of Apex Legends 2? It seems the answer is no.

According to Andrew Wilson, CEO of EA, the intention is to learn from the mistakes made so far and continue building on what they have with Apex Legends. Looking at what has happened with other games, he believes that a sequel in the realm of free-to-play games tends to polarize players and result in a loss that, in the case of Apex Legends, would ultimately bury the game.

To change the dynamic of declining numbers in engagement and profits, what they will do from now on with Apex Legends is to be more aggressive in their changes. They will maintain their focus on retaining current players, but will work on making more significant and innovative changes in the future to bring back the audience that left and, hopefully, attract a new audience.

In this way, Wilson wanted to clarify that Apex Legends is not going anywhere. They still have confidence in the game and, it seems, we will have many more years of it, despite EA’s poor business decisions and the unnecessary setback it is experiencing right now.

Krafton and PUBG Studios are working on your new obsession: a tactical multiplayer shooter… in top-down view

Your favorite shooter copied from others. This is not even a controversial statement: all games are based on other games that came before them in one way or another. Even if we talk about the heavyweight par excellence, Fortnite, it’s not unfair to say that it is a copy of PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS, more commonly known as PUBG. Even if today Epic’s giant has managed to replace it in the popular imagination, PUBG was the first to make battle royale what it is today. And it seems that its studio wants to repeat the move.

Your favorite shooter copied from others. This is not even a controversial statement: all games are based on other games that came before them in one way or another. Even if we talk about the heavyweight par excellence, Fortnite, it’s not unfair to say that it is a copy of PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS. Better known as PUBG. Even if Epic’s giant has managed to replace it in the popular imagination today, PUBG was the first to make battle royale what it is today. And it seems that its studio wants to repeat the move.

PUBG Studios, along with Krafton, have announced a new game: Project ARC. This will be a 5 vs. 5 tactical shooter, which promises to be realistic and based on the skill of its players and their ability to cooperate with each other. What is its biggest peculiarity? Unlike all the multiplayer shooters we have seen in the last 10 years, it is not in first person. It is a top-down view game.

The premise of the game is simple. You will be on a team of five people who will have to hack the Crypto, a device that is inside a building. To do this, you will not only have to reach the Crypto, but also face a team that will try to prevent you from succeeding.

Switching between the attacking and defending team, the game revolves around attacking or defending the Crypto. And for this, we have a tool: the Decryptor. Which will not only allow us to hack our target but also block doors or create barricades, among other things. All of this, moreover, will be accompanied by the entire arsenal we can expect from any kind of modern militaristic shooter. Grenade launchers, assault weapons, reconnaissance drones, and proximity explosives have already been confirmed for the game. As have two of our favorite tactical weapons, which, if well implemented, make the difference between a good game and an excellent game: smoke grenades and flashbangs.

Project ARC does not yet have a confirmed release date, but it already has a Steam page and a confirmed release for PC. Considering PUBG Studios’ preference for mobile devices and the popularity of their games in Southeast Asia, it would be absurd to rule out a future announcement for its release on mobile devices as well. So we should keep a close eye on this Project ARC because, once again, these are the people who made Fortnite before Fortnite.

Fortnite, for the night

Starting this Saturday, the Fortnite map will turn red with the appearance of various skins and weapons that will delight those who, besides engaging in multiplayer shooting, know exactly who Wes Craven and John Carpenter are. Because, after all, how would you feel about replacing your usual characters with Leatherface? The antagonist of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, who has already appeared in nine films, continues wielding the chainsaw and dismembering now in video game format (although he already had a very controversial one for the Atari 2600).

Next to him, we will have Billy, the puppet from the Saw movies, a franchise that has just entered its tenth installment and is now, indeed, going to play a game. Interestingly, the movie also had two video games that did not exactly receive critical acclaim. Opposing these two horror icons, we will have Edward Scissorhands, the character from Tim Burton, and several Disney villains.

The content provided is an embedded YouTube video link. There is no text in Spanish to translate into English. If you have any text that needs translation, please provide it, and I’ll be happy to assist!

If you are one of those who follow this Disney sub-category that has become so famous these years, you should know that Captain Hook, Cruella De Vil, and Maleficent will make their appearance, although they won’t be the only ones, because it has already been said that the villains from the mouse company will gradually appear in Fortnite. Oh, yes! And in addition, a new weapon will be added: you can play with chainsaws, which is something that suits Leatherface perfectly. Are you ready for the massacre to begin in Tilted Towers?

5.6 million players and one hour: the biggest battle in Fortnite history happened this week and it was spectacular

If Fortnite has excelled at anything, it’s capturing the attention of players through constant defining moments. Everything that happens in the game feels like an unmissable event. Something you either experienced or it’s not exactly the same anymore. Even if it’s true that they don’t always succeed, the number of times they get it right is surprising.

If Fortnite has known how to do anything, it is capturing the attention of players through constant defining moments. Everything that happens in the game feels like a must-see event. Something you either experienced or it’s not exactly the same anymore. Even if it’s true that they don’t always succeed, the number of times they get it right is surprising. As they have demonstrated this past weekend.

5.6 million players gathered at 8 PM on Sunday, October 6th to face a giant version of Doctor Doom. In an epic battle lasting over an hour, these players fought relentlessly against him until they managed to defeat him in one of the most gigantic battles ever known in any video game.

This is related to the current Fortnite story with Marvel, where the multiverses of both franchises have crossed, leading to unexpected events like this giant Doctor Doom wanting to destroy the world of Fortnite. This has led to this spectacular event which, although not the biggest in the game’s history, is the largest since last December, when they gathered 11.6 million simultaneous players for a Big Bang live event.

What will happen after the fall of Doctor Doom? Only Epic Games knows. But if there’s one thing they’ve made clear, it’s that in Fortnite, stories and experiences never end. So we have no doubt that they are already preparing their next big event that you can’t miss for anything in the world.

Marvel comics are ready to celebrate the existence of Fortnite in the definitive crossover

Fortnite se ha convertido en una presencia tan hegemónica en la cultura popular que cualquiera pensaría que en realidad hemos estado saltando de aviones, cayendo en batallas y teniendo todo tipo de crossovers locos durante décadas. Pero no: solo hemos estado jugando durante siete años, durante los cuales ha tenido tiempo para convertirse en la piedra angular de cualquier campaña de marketing algo agresiva. Y no parece que vaya a detenerse. ¡Haz mío Fortnite! Marvel no se iba a conformar solo con protagonizar un par de eventos y ofrecer toneladas de skins en el juego, por supuesto que no: además, […]

Fortnite has become such a hegemonic presence in popular culture that anyone would think we’ve been jumping out of planes, falling into battle, and having all kinds of crazy crossovers for decades. But no, we’ve only been playing for seven years, during which it has had time to become the cornerstone of any somewhat aggressive marketing campaign. And it shows no signs of stopping.

Make Mine Fortnite!

At Marvel they were not just going to settle for starring in a couple of events and offering tons of skins in the game, of course not: in addition, they have launched several crossovers in the form of comics like Zero Conflict or Nexus War. And the idea must have been a success, because now they present several comics that will have, as alternative covers, various crossovers between characters and sagas.

These will be Peelverine (Wolverine and Peely), Meowtooth (Sabretooth and Meowscles), Captain Jones (Captain America and Agent Jones), and Ghost Ri-Durr (Ghost Rider and Durr Burger), a frankly good play on words. For now, it has remained on the covers, but if anyone doubts that they are already planning the crossover comic with the hope that, someday, these characters will end up in the video game, think again. All for Fortnite.

Marvel arrives to Fortnite… or rather Robert Downey Jr.

Fortnite confirms what their next collaboration will be, which will be none other than a battle pass with Marvel, named Absolute Doom

This weekend the D23 has been celebrated. This has left us with numerous announcements in the world of cinema and animation, but also in the world of video games. Because if there is something that Disney is passionate about, apart from traditional audiovisuals, it is video games. And if there is a video game that seems to understand each other like no other, that is Fortnite.

Fortnite will have a collaboration soon with Marvel. Named Fortnite x Marvel: Absolute Doom, it will start on August 16th and its main interest is that it will introduce two characters that everyone is looking forward to seeing: Gwenpool and Doctor Doom. Now characterized in the movies by Robert Downey Jr.

Due to the fact that many Marvel characters have appeared in Fortnite in the past, the plan is for this collaboration to feature lesser-known characters from the franchise. Additionally, due to the popularity of the X-Men ’97 series, there will also be new skins inspired by the world’s most famous mutants. So far, Cyclops, Jubilee, and Colossus have been confirmed, but there are still more characters to be announced.

Once again, you won’t have to wait long to enjoy this crossover. It will be on August 16th and, as in previous occasions, it will come with its own battle pass. So, if you want to get everything, get ready to farm and make sure you don’t miss any of the rewards of this new season.

The end Fortnite’s Chapter 5 Season 3 will be here sooner than expected

Fortnite Season 3 Chapter 5 is ending earlier than expected, so be prepared

Online game seasons have clear and predetermined endings for good reason: Companies want players to know exactly how much time they have to obtain their rewards. Not being able to get a cosmetic or item they desired is the fastest way to exhaust your audience, making them feel cheated. This is something that Epic has managed to avoid so far.

According to their official Twitter account, Fortnite will end Chapter 5 Season 3 earlier than expected. Closing August 15th at 11 PM, with scheduled maintenance shortly after, this chapter will close its doors three hours earlier than expected. This may disrupt the plans of many players.

Three hours may seem like a short amount of time, but with only one week’s notice, those three hours to reach level 200 of the battle pass for the season can make the difference between achieving it or not. That’s why, from Epic, they have decided to create a way to compensate players. Starting on August 13th, an Experience Supercharger will be available for all players, allowing us to level up faster. However, it is limited to only three levels.

While you may be close to level 200 if you have been playing since the beginning of the season, it is possible that may not necessarily be to achieve your goals. If you need an extra boost, remember that the Wasteland Wraith leveling bundle will help you level up faster. It costs 1,200 V-Bucks, which is not cheap, but if it helps you get an exclusive reward, it’s not a bad deal.

Remember. Chapter 5 continues until August 15, three hours earlier than expected. So if you want to see the end of this chapter, or if you want to achieve your goals, adjust your plans, or you might miss out on something you really desired.

Mobile Suit Gundam will arrive in Fortnite in the most peculiar way possible

Few franchises have had more cultural impact in Japan than Mobile Suit Gundam. Few franchises have had less impact in the West than Mobile Suit Gundam. To be fair, it’s a country-specific thing, with France and Italy being two countries where they seem to appreciate the value of giant robots, but they are the exception to the rule. It’s something that remains curious when they are very popular throughout Asia and, in general, in any place where they have embraced their concept.

As announced earlier, Netflix is making its own version of the series. Named Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance, it is a CGI series with a more Western style that they plan to release on October 17th. Having recently released a new trailer for the series, they have also dropped an even more surprising news. This adaptation will have its own video game. And it will be within Fortnite.

Developed by Look North World, developers behind ARK: Survival Evolved and numerous games developed within Fortnite, this Gundam-based gameplay mode will be a team deathmatch. Accessible for free to all players with a Fortnite account, it will be a way to promote the series, as well as a way to demonstrate the flexibility of the Unreal Editor for Fortnite.

Surprisingly, this is not the only collaboration that Mobile Suit Gundam has had with a shooter this year. At the beginning of 2024, skins based on several of its mechas were introduced in Call of Duty, specifically the RX-78 Gundam, Char Asnable’s red Zaku-II, and Gundam Aerial from Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury. On the other hand, this should not surprise us so much. Not when the 45th anniversary of the original Mobile Suit Gundam premiere will be celebrated in 2024.

These collaborations are intended to get people interested in Gundam, and if they are loyal to their subject matter, they are always interesting. Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance will be released on October 17th on Netflix. The game mode based on the movie will be released in Fortnite shortly, and will be available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Nintendo Switch, PC, and mobile devices.

If you are harassed in Fortnite, it’s Elon Musk’s fault

Elon Musk is not among the most popular people in the world. Rather, he is tremendously unpopular. And it’s not surprising. Being a billionaire with conservative ideas, without respect for labor and human rights, who steals art and memes, and who thinks he’s funnier than he really is, is not usually a good way to be loved. We would love to say it’s not his fault. That’s just how the Internet is. But the reality is that he has earned his fame. So if you’re interested in the latest Fortnite update, it’s not going to make you popular, precisely.

Fortnite is always ahead of all trends. By this we mean that it has no problem collaborating with different brands. That’s why it shouldn’t surprise us that the Tesla Cybertruck is now coming to Fortnite. A car that, if it already looks (and behaves!) like a metal coffin in reality, in the game it looks like it came straight from the future. But one of those futures that no one wants to live in.

If you’re thinking of using it, just for laughs, we’re sorry to bring you bad news. Although there is a special event from today, July 23rd, until August 6th, to get cosmetics related to Tesla, the Cybertruck itself will be paid content. In other words, if you want to use the ugliest combat vehicle in the history of the game, you’ll have to pay for it. That and make sure that under no circumstances do you close any doors while any of your limbs are still nowhere near the car’s thresholds.

We also want to warn you about something. There are already players on social media asking to organize to harass those who use the Cybertruck in Fortnite. In addition, the announcement of this new vehicle has been met with more mockery than praise. Something that seems to accompany the current decrease in popularity of the Tesla owner.

Of course, if you’re interested, you can get the Cybertruck for Fortnite. It will be a good source of memes. And probably a perfect way for all the players on the server where you are to want to kill you. Meanwhile, you can play Fortnite on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, and mobile devices. Although, unfortunately, we can’t promise you that whoever you find driving a Cybertruck in the game is not actually Elon Musk.
