The Simpsons have taken over Fortnite for the month of November, but players won't be sneaking around Springfield forever. A few hints for Fortnite Chapter 7 have started to emerge, and signs point to the immanent arrival of The Bride, a character played by Uma Thurman in Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2.
Fortnite content creator NickEh30 posted a teaser for Chapter Seven that has a set of coordinates that lead to the Hollywood sign. The text in the teaser says, "Now Playing /...

The next big addition to Fortnite generated some big complaints, but fortunately, you can raise those directly at developer Epic Games in a new survey from the studio.
With the new mini-season based on The Simpsons comes the debut of Sidekicks, adorable pets that accompany you (and offer no gameplay advantage) on your battle royale bouts. But a closer look at the fine print reveals that the base appearance of these cute cosmetic creatures can only be customized once they have been obtained...
World of Warcraft's most infamous and expensive mount might be coming back after having only been available for a limited time.
According to a datamine by Wowhead, a shop-file description mentions a "Brutosaur Comeback." The description doesn't specify which massive dinosaur Brutosaur mount it is, but it's likely not the original Mighty Caravan Brutosaur that was available during the game's Battle for Azeroth expansion to the tune of 5 million gold.
That leaves the Trader's Gilded...
Nintendo's litigation against Palworld developer Pocketpair is becoming increasingly complicated by the day, with one recent patent granted to the Pokemon franchise now under review by the United States.

Vampire Survivors has spawned a wave of games inspired by it in the years since it was first released, and Warhammer Survivors is the next game set in this genre of endless hordes and power-ups. Featuring characters and weapons from both Warhammer 40K and Warhammer: Age of Sigmar, Warhammer Survivors is a co-production between Auroch Digital and Vampire Survivors developer Poncle, using the same engine that powers the roguelite survivors game it's inspired by. It's scheduled to launch in...
One of the best ways to progress your account in Arc Raiders during the early game is by completing quests. At first, you're given tutorial-style quests that are intended to get you accustomed to the game's mechanics and gameplay loop. However, after those initial quests are complete, you're thrown straight into the action with some challenging objectives. One of the harder quests you'll get assigned after your first few are complete is called Off the Radar, and this requires you to locate...
Developer Embark Studios wants to make it right for Arc Raiders players who dealt with server problems over the weekend. As such, anyone who logged in to the extraction shooter on November 2 will receive 500 Raider Tokens.
The official Arc Raiders account on X announced the in-game compensation for players. The post acknowledges "that our servers had a wobble on Sunday," with SteamDB noting the game hit a new peak concurrent-players count of 354,836 people on Steam that day. This comes...
You might think that your weapons or gear or inventory items are the most important elements of your Arc Raiders account, but the answer is, actually, your pet chicken. At the start of Arc Raiders, you'll be gifted Scrappy, a chicken that can collect resources for you while you're out killing enemies during a drop. To make Scrappy even stronger, it can be upgraded to be even better at its job.
Like all upgrades in Arc Raiders, Scrappy requires some specific resources every time you go to...
A new study has revealed its findings on the carbon footprint of physical video games, and unsurprisingly, digitally downloaded games are considered to be more environmentally friendly in comparison to physical. French carbon-accounting firm Greenly studied the environmental impact of various systems and the production of video games, finding that physical copies of games are "100 times more carbon-intensive" than their digital counterparts.
According to Greenly, the manufacturing and...
Microsoft has debuted a new advertisement for Xbox Game Pass aimed at reminding people that they don't have to wait very long to play more games. The "New Games Added All The Time" ad focuses on a sad-looking, tired person sitting inside a disc-return box waiting for someone to return a game so they can play it. This is meant to highlight how people used to rent games at places like Blockbuster but had to wait, in some cases at least, for people to return their copies.
"That was then," the...
Nintendo has confirmed that in the last two quarters, it has sold a staggering number of Switch 2 consoles. As part of its latest financial results, the company reported 10.36 million Switch 2 units sold as of September 30, in the two quarters since it went on sale. In the last three months alone, Nintendo sold 4.54 million Switch 2 consoles.
To put that into context, that's more than double what the original Switch console sold within the same two-month time period (4.7 million units...
In 2015, Obsidian Entertainment launched Pillars of Eternity, a party-based real-time tactical RPG. Now Obsidian is making one of the most significant changes to the game in the last 10 years by introducing a turn-based mode. And Pillars of Eternity players will be able to get their hands on it this week.
On the game's official site, Obsidian announced that the public beta for Pillars of Eternity's turn-based mode will go live on November 5. The real-time combat was inspired by the system...
Switch 2 players have spent several months cruising through Mario Kart World's large open-world map, but if you're looking for a way to make those drives through the Mushroom Kingdom even more immsersive, you'll want to check out Numbskull's official Joy-Con steering wheel accessory that's set to launch on November 22. The device is larger and more robust than the simple Joy-Con wheel accessories already available, but at just $30, it's also much more affordable than the advanced steering...
Have you ever felt like sports commentators like Cris Collinsworth and Joe Davis can get a little wild on NFL and MLB broadcasts sometimes? Their real-world tangents are nothing compared to some recently uncovered voice lines for MLB Slugfest 2003.
"Enjoying some smoked whale meat up in the booth today," one of the fictional casters says mid-game. "I don't really care for it, but I can't stop eating it."
Other lines talk about players getting drunk, the commentators walking into traffic...
Fantastic Pixel Castle, the NetEase-owned MMO studio founded by former World of Warcraft lead system designer Greg Street, will shut down November 17.
Street announced the studio's closure date in a post on LinkedIn. In weeks prior, Street stated NetEase had pulled funding from the studio but had allowed it time to seek out a new publisher or raise funding for their fledgling MMORPG, project Ghost.
Those efforts have not panned out. Street said "there is still a chance" the studio could...
Just over a year ago, Sony took the drastic step of shutting down Concord and issuing refunds two weeks after its release because the game failed to find an audience. Now, Concord's demise is being used as an example of why gamers need more consumer protections during a debate in the United Kingdom's House of Lords.
As reported by Eurogamer, one MP specifically cited Concord's quick demise while arguing in favor of the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024.
"I know the...
Fortnite's big crossover with The Simpsons is now live, and it brings with it a host of content themed around the longrunning animated series. Players can purchase the battle pass to unlock Homer and Stupid Sexy Flanders skins (among other cosmetics and items), but you don't have to spend anything extra to unlock a free glider based on Springfield's most famous aliens if you meet a few requirements.
As part of the collaboration, Epic and Disney are offering up the Kang and Kodos glider for...
One of the recurring themes from a vocal segment of Battlefield 6 fans before and after launch was a desire to see the game free of Call of Duty-style ridiculous skins. The dev team responded by telling fans that Battlefield 6 would be "a gritty, realistic shooter." But after releasing the recent "Wicked Grin" skin, Battlefield Studios has quietly removed the light blue outfit from the lineup.
Much like an apparent orange skin and an earlier leaked skin, the response to the "Wicked Grin"...
Rapper Soulja Boy is once again trying to sell a game console, this time selling what looks to be a rebranded Retroid Pocket Flip 2 under the name SouljaGame Flip.
