by Petar Vukobrat in General | Jul, 11th 2020 Esports game developers have a fairly unique role in the industry, especially when it comes to community engagement and development. A standard game studio develops a product from start to finish, after which they release their game into the wild and breathe a sigh of relief. Their complicated and challenging journey has a beginning, middle, and an end, and how long these time frames last depends solely on the title they’re working on, with little to no interaction or feedback with

It was the biggest match of Leaf's Super Smash Bros. career, and her Lucas was one of the best in the game. All that stood in her way on the path to the tournament crown was a nasty Ridley player in a two-stock match. Leaf quickly dispatched Ridley's first life by luring them to the map's edge. But, immediately after respawning, Ridley knocked Lucas off the stage in a bold attempt to even the odds. Ridley then rushed forward to try and spike Lucas into oblivion, but whiffed the killing

One does not simply walk into the Nether, but it seems that's what everyone is about to do anyway... Today we're releasing the full Nether Update in all its glory! Traverse through familiar, fiery wastes into new unexplored fungal forests, spooky valleys, and deltas brimming with basalt. Dig your way through these biomes and you might be able to find a new curious material, suspiciously titled "ancient debris". What will you make of it (it’s totally not Netherite)? Fight your way through hordes of Piglins… Or don't! They’re actually pretty

Remedy’s mind-bending action-adventure Control has won plenty of praise, including for its gorgeous visuals. But, at least before the developer improved the game’s performance with patches, it struggled on the base PS4 and Xbox One, and dropped to as low as 10 frames per second at some points. Performance certainly shouldn’t be a problem on next-generation consoles, however. We’re glad to be able to share that @ControlRemedy will be coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. More details coming at a later date. #PlayStation5 #XboxSeriesX — Remedy Entertainment (@remedygames)
