A new job listing on Respawn Entertainment's website seems to suggest that a mobile version of Apex Legends is currently in the works. While click through the next page job listing itself says the company is looking for a senior game designer to work on "unannounced mobile games," it is under the Apex Legends section of the site, making it pretty obvious that the games in question are likely related to Apex Legen

Trying to imagine carrying out the intricate controls most 2D fighters require for special moves and complex combos is mildly perplexing, but Dragon Ball Legends employs a more simplistic approach. The player is able to dodge attacks and move about the screen by the use of a virtual thumbstick on the touch screen and attack by tapping on different attack cards. It sounds a bit strange to use a card based system for something as frenetic as a Dragon Ball Z face off, but surprisingly this approach works quite well.

When the game first started introducing heirlooms, players even calculated that they would need to spend at least $170 to get Bloodhound's Raven's Bite . While those microtransactions have never been mandatory to be competitive within the game, players have certainly been left with a bad taste in their mouths over the excessive c

These job listings seem to affirm what some players were feeling following a recent leak: Apex Legends has a long life ahead of it. A recent leak by Biast12 seems to indicate that Respawn Entertainment already has plans for the next 7 legends coming to Apex Legends . And while these legends won't be coming for a while, many players felt reassured that Apex Legends is here to s

Many fans of Respawn Entertainment's Apex Legends are hotly anticipating the game's upcoming crossplay update . Not only will these players finally be able to play against their friends on other systems, they'll also be able to face off against competitors on the Nintendo Switch as well. However, it seems like another group of challengers could be entering the ring soon if a recent job listing is to be belie

Genshin Impact , on the other hand, features 24 playable characters that seem completely fleshed-out, each with their own motivations and goals in Teyvat. Not only that, but these characters each have a unique feel to them with their own abilities that reflect their personalities, even within the same Element and Weapon type. Kaeya and Qiqi may both be long sword users that specialize in Cryo, but their skill sets are completely different from each other. Add in the fact that players can switch between multiple characters during combat on the fly, and it seems clear that Genshin Impact is striving for a different character experience than Breath of the Wi

However, EA has partnered up with Chinese developers on multiple other occasions to roll out mobile versions of its flagship titles, including FIFA Online 4 and Need for Speed Online . Both of those were made in a partnership with the Chinese conglomerate Tencent, which itself owns Riot Games, and Tencent is also responsible for the massively successful mobile title Arena of Valor . The conglomerate is currently partnered up with Activision for Call of Duty Mobile , so clearly, Tencent is an old hat at this kind of thing. Whether or not EA's Apex Legends partner is Tencent once again remains to be seen as EA divulges more information going forw

This time around, Famitsu simply asked its readers to vote their favorite game of all time, without any restriction of release date, genre, or platform. In addition to the readers, the magazine's own editorial staff, and a sizable panel of celebrities and game developers were asked to vote. Of course, everyone's votes counted the s

Genshin Impact 's world seems both foreign and familiar in the same breath. The world of Teyvat hasn't been explored in other games like Hyrule has over the past 34 years , but seems like it's existed for a millennia. This might have to do with Genshin Impact using real world nations as inspiration for the regions found within the game, such as Liyue being based on China or Snezhnaya with Russia. Each region has its own Archon with godlike power and overarching political structure, and is accompanied by a seemingly endless amount of l

As you probably noticed, the recently-released and extremely successful Dragon Quest XI does not appear in the ranking, and that's easily explained. It released in Japan on July 29th, over a week after the end of the survey. Due to that unfortunate timing, we won't be able to know how it would fare against Persona 5 for a wh

While not yet released, interested players may preregister on Google Play and the App Store, which promises that greater rewards will be released based on the greater number of people that register. It's a vague claim, but registration is free so it doesn't seem like a bad idea if this is something you'd be interested in. The battles will take place against players across the world in real time PvP, with popular characters such as Super Saiyan Goku, Piccolo, Pan, Nappa, Frieza, Vegeta and an all new character designed by Akira Toriyama.
