News Wrap Up: Mobile Dragon Age & Star Wars, Yogventures, Oculus Rift Games & More!

This certainly won’t be the last video like this we’ll see from the Playground LTM – it likely won’t even be the last Call of Duty map recreation. Between this new mode, and the current live events that are taking place as Season 5 approaches, Epic is continuing to set the industry standard on games as a live serv

Development studio King is best known for mobile games like Candy Crush Saga and Bubble Witch Saga , but the company is now preparing to take on the enduringly popular Call of Duty franchise. King is apparently building a new team based in Stockholm, Sweden, with the purpose of bringing the biggest FPS franchise around to mobile devi

For the music lovers, and gamers who dug Ubisoft’s Rocksmith , Realta Entertainment Group has set a release date for BandFuse: Rock Legends , a game that supports real guitars, basses and microphones and aims to turn players into real-world musicians. It’ll be available on PS3 and Xbox 360 on November 19, 2013 with the following packa

All of the key bullet points, or at least the features that most Modern Warfare 3 players flocked to the Call of Duty Elite service for, are on display in the app — from tracking your career, setting up custom classes, and looking at recent matches. Unfortunately, the community-based offerings from Elite, things like setting up clans and participating in tournaments or challenges (you can track challenges howev

Having to constantly switch between Elite and Modern Warfare 3 on the console, or having a PC close by, wasn’t the most convenient way to play and probably turned some people off to the idea. Still, Elite works extremely well, SKS Rifle is fully featured, and being a premium Elite member entitles players to some exciting new content, nine months worth in f

It’s not too surprising to see King take a lead role in bringing the franchise to mobile devices. The company obviously knows how to make a profitable app — which is why Call of Duty publisher Activision Blizzard bought the company for a whopping $5.9 billion in 2

“Our challenge as a team is to create a Call of Duty experience on mobile that will strive to transform the best console experience fans know and love, while also breaking new ground for mobile and redefining the genre,” reads a statement on the recruitment page . The project will apparently feature an extensive amount of prototyping, which suggest that there’s currently no clear idea of how the mobile game will w

The map is a combination of Modern Warfare and Black Ops locations, which includes areas like Crash, Estate, and Standoff. Because this information is coming from a testing server, all of it could change down the line – even the map – so nothing is final until the game is officially relea

As promised, the Call of Duty Elite app is now available on the iTunes Store, but what Beachhead Studio and Activision had failed to stress to Call of Duty fans is just what features would be available, and how the app looks on your mobile device. Thankfully they have released a handful of screenshots, and a few more tidbits of information concerning the Elite app. Of course, the app is free of charge, so if you really want to see what it’s all about, there’s no harm in downloading

Call of Duty publisher Activision already has one major release for the series planned this year, with Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 set to launch in November . That’s not all that the company is working on regarding its hugely popular shooter series, however, as Activision has now announced a Call of Duty mobile game for the Chinese mar

But, Activision wants to stress that Elite, like any great stat-tracking service, is constantly evolving, meaning that new updates should be on the way once the app reaches a certain level of stability. One of the positive signs about this iOS launch as compared to Elite’s initial launch is being able to sign in on the first

The Playground LTM accommodates building by giving the player a greatly increased spawn rate of materials. Naturally, it didn’t take long after Playground’s release for YouTube to become flooded with wild creations, with some even choosing to rebuild areas of the map that were destroyed by the meteor at the end of Seaso

Videos like this one show just how good of an idea Playground was for Epic Games. Not only does the LTM give new players (of which there will be many, thanks to the recent Switch port ) a way to get to grips with the game in a safe environment, but it also enables impressive creations that will continue to make headlines and keep the game relev

After fooling around with the app, I can say that it features a pretty slick design, and it delivers exactly what I would expect from a mobile version of Elite. If only this mobile app had launched sooner I think Elite would be just as huge as Modern Warfare

At Gamescom EA brought a customized tank to make an impression for the up and coming free-to-play reboot of Command & Conquer . Taking a note from Wargaming.net who frequent E3 with WWII vehicles, the devs take us behind-the-sce
