Apex Legends Season 4: Assimilation Trailer Breakdown

His arsenal of "decoy" special moves makes facing a good Mirage a hassle. His ability to cast a decoy towards an area is a good way to reveal an enemy's location. On top of his invisibility ability, he is an excellent character for those who prefer a "spy" charac

Fire Emblem had been spinning its wheels for a long time before the release of Three Houses . Who could have guessed that the latest Fire Emblem game would be one of the most absorbing games of the year, with an interesting overarching story and an incredible battle system that is engaging without being watered down or too difficult to grasp. It can be hard to finish a game once, but Fire Emblem: Three Houses can easily convince players to go through it three times to see the whole story. It’s just a shame that you can’t pet the dog

The beloved game, Portal 2, features two of the best robots in gaming history: ATLAS and P-Body. Also referred to as Blue and Orange, ATLAS and P-Body were created by the artificial intelligence GLaDOS. She creates these two obtuse robots to test the facility humans failed to fin

The idea of a robot impersonating an old-school cowboy sounds like the most ridiculous thing in the world. So, props should be given to Fallout: New Vegas for making such a ludicrous character one of the best parts of the overall experie

My boyfriend and I had been together for several years when he invited me to play Portal 2 with him. Portal 2 is a puzzle game that requires two players to coordinate with one another to solve various puzzle challenges. It sounded like a top-tier bonding experie

The trailer also shows off Revenant’s totem, once again reflecting this Jekyll-and-Hyde theme that shows players in two different physical states. Players who go near it morph into shadow versions of themselves. This is similar to what players saw during Halloween’s Fright or Flight event, which may have secretly been a test event for the shadow abil

It’s worth reading the entire thread. However, to offer a quick summary: Early in the game's development, he was unsure of his purpose as a writer in a battle royale game. Up until then, the battle royales had deemphasized the role of story. He feared this meant he may soon no longer have a job. Still, while he waited for more information, he found himself crafting lore involving the Titanfall universe. He was no stranger to this universe — he'd had a hand in creating as a writer on Titanfall and Titanfall 2 . Eventually, his Respawn coworkers approached him for his ideas on how the team’s forthcoming game might fit into that universe. Subsequently, the team started discussing charact

For decades, games have given players the opportunity to work together via two-player co-op modes. In the arcade, there was Contra and Double Dragon . Nintendo had games like River City Ransom and Streets of Rage . Sega had notable co-op duos such as Sonic and Tails and ToeJam and Ea

In the Titanfall universe, Pathfinder is a modified MRVN (pronounced mar-vin) who does not know the identity of his creator. MRVN robots are used for janitorial and mechanical duties. In one of the Apex Legends Vertical Combat Legend trailers, we can see a standard MRVN serving drinks to customers. Pathfinder was certainly not created for a bartending

HK-47 is a character that most people absolutely adore, with his snarky and quick-witted replies being one of the best parts of this character. The idea of a robot harboring such a deep personality is something that could only be pulled off in the Star Wars unive

Bangalore has three special abilities. The first being her passive ability "double time" this move allows her to run faster while she is being shot at. This makes her an incredible evasive character or even a solid choice to press enemy te

Many people will celebrate Valentine’s Day with new loves or longtime partners, while others will lament the fact that they can’t get a date at all. But in my experience, finding a date for Valentine’s Day is a feat far less difficult than finding the perfect duo part

How could it be anything other than Slay The Spire (I say, knowing full well I almost put Tetris 99 in this spot)? After initial frustration, Slay The Spire's various baddies are like old friends now - they're familiar, I've learned their rhythms. The cards and relics aren't mysteries to me anymore. Its delightful weirdness is old hat. And yet I find myself returning to it time and time again because it's just so clever, and it makes me feel clever - when I pay attention to it, when I'm not zoning out and just enjoying the jour

The Thunderjaw is the only robot on this list with a lack of consciousness or individuality. It acts like a creature or animal. The rest of the robots on this list are smart and interact with humans in a more civilized way. On the other hand, the Thunderjaw is a stand-out on this list because of its pure design and purp

These thematic Battle Pass skins are intriguing as they play into the Jekyll-and-Hyde aspect of the trailer. Skins sometimes connote a nod to the game's lore, such as the Wraith Voidwalker skin. While it may be a stretch, it's possible that the two-faced theme may end up with Lifeline, Wraith and Wattson usurped by darkn
