Respawn’s CEO is just like us, “would love” to see Titanfall 3

April 30, 2023VG247

Respawn isn’t currently working on it though. In a strong he’s just like me for real moment, Respawn CEO Vince Zampella said he “would love” to see Titanfall 3 happen. I’m not a big shooter kind of player. They’re just not for me, unless they’re doing something interesting, like Titanfall 2, which yeah, everyone’s right: that’s a damn good video game right there. Personally I’m not looking for anymore Titanfall multiplayer either because I never played the online portion, but I would love a third game just for the story. Only problem is, Titanfall 2 didn’t do so well, and…

Apex Legends: The Board Game brings the battle royale to your tabletop

February 26, 2023VG247

The board game is set to launch on Kickstarter in May. If you just can’t get enough Apex Legends, there’s some good news, as there’s an official board game in the works. Quite simply titled Apex Legends: The Board Game, this particular tabletop adaptation is a competitive tactics game designed for 2-4 players, though you will be able to play with more people thanks to some planned expansions (thanks, GameSpot). It’s actually planned to have a Kickstarter campaign, which launches May 17, but with a game as popular as Apex, it’s pretty likely to be successfully funded. In the game,…

Respawn is changing those supposed pay-to-win Apex Legends skins

September 18, 2022VG247

Players have felt that the skins were simply better than any other skins due to their aim down sights. A recent batch of Apex Legends weapon skins have been causing some controversy as a number of players believe that the aim down sights (ADS) are better than on other skins. As reported by PCGamesN, some pay-to-win accusations have been thrown at developer Respawn due to the introduction of weapon skins like the Heat Sink skin. According to some players, the Heat Sink skin has a vastly superior ADS compared to other guns’ skins. However, Respawn has since addressed the criticism,…

Hundreds of high ranked Apex Legends players have been banned for 6-manning exploit

July 15, 2022VG247

Those who cheekily used exploits to climb to higher ranks have been appropriately punished. Apex Legends players who have recently been making use of ranked arena exploits and “6-manning” may log into the free-to-play battle royale and find themselves suspended or permanently banned from the game. This comes following a ban wave from the Respawn Entertainment specifically targeting users of these exploits, rather than general hackers or cheaters. According to Conor Ford of the Security team, 1307 users in total have been banned, including almost 1,000 ranked Apex Predators. Check out the latest tales from the Frontier cinematic featuring Lifeline…

Twitter shares the most tweeted about games during 2022 so far

July 13, 2022VG247

There were approximately 1.5 billion tweets about gaming on Twitter during the first half of the year. While the latter half of 2022 may seem a little barren, the first half of the year was pretty good for games. We saw Elden Ring perform even better than we all anticipated, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga arrived, and Pokemon Legends: Arceus introduced us to a new style of Pokemon game. So, there’s been lots to talk, and tweet, about. That being said, Twitter has collected data on some of the most talked about games on the platform during the first…

During last weekend’s Apex Legends Global Series esports tournament, one with $2 million up for grabs, professional player Philip “ImperialHal” Dosen did the unthinkable: he held off from shooting an opponent and getting an easy kill. Dosen plays for TSM, and many would say what he did was unthinkable when money is on the line. As spotted by Alpha Intel, Dosen heard an enemy player over a nearby ridge. When he…
