It’s the end of the year, and it’s time for rankings and awards. The latest issue of Weekly Famitsu prompted a hundred Japanese developers and industry personalities to rank their favorite games of 2017, and here you can find a translation of the full top 100. Yeah, that’s a lot of titles to transl
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
As the Harry Potter: Wizards Unite community wraps up week 2 of the adorable Baby Beasts Brilliant Event , it’s already time to jump right into the next big activity. This month features another exciting Wizarding Weekend and this time around witches and wizards will be celebrating some of the legendary icons Arena of Valor events Hogwarts during the two day event full of bonuses and special rewa
Unsurprisingly, Persona 5 also won its own category (RPG) when Famitsu did a survey about that, Dragon Quest III also ranked second then, but Chrono Trigger , that ranked third, fared worse in this survey. NieR: Automata , on the other hand, held fast in 4th place in both surv
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
A mobile version of Apex Legends first come onto the radar during the game’s season 2 content, but both EA and Respawn had little else to say at the time, and definitely no release date. While there’s still no release date, EA at least offered a few more details as to how the mobile Apex Legends’ development is currently far
The problem comes to a head with the PS4 version of the game though. It’s no secret that Sony is very stingy about cross-play, not even allowing it in Fortnite , which is currently the biggest game in the world. While Pete Hines says the solution to this problem is “to be determined,” Bethesda isn’t really willing to budge on it, and have to make this clear to every platform hol
EA announced its decision to bring its popular battle royale game Apex Legends to mobile devices last year, but fell more or less silent on the subject until its recent third-quarter earnings call. During the call, EA finally confirmed that the release of Apex Legends for mobile is moving forward as planned, as EA spent those months of radio silence locking in a publishing partner in Ch
At the very least, Apex Legends fans do have something in the very near future to look forward to, as the game’s season 4–titled “Assimilation” –goes live on February 4. Beyond that, fans can at least be assured that the mobile title they so enthusiastically wanted remains a definite reality; it’s coming, but there’ll be a bit of a w
” Fallout 76, sure: it would be nice if I could play on my Xbox and my kid is playing on his PC and we can play together, but if we can’t, OK. There’s lots of games – I play Overwatch on Xbox and he plays on PC separately and has a whole separate account. It’s not critical. But for Legends it’s absolutely criti
There are a few caveats to the list. Like previous years, certain developers are plagued by massive backlogs or simply aren’t up to date with what the rest of the industry is releasing. Others may have simply interpreted the question as related to the best games they played in 2017. So there are a few that voted for older games, which you’ll see in the ranking. Apparently, the SNES Classic Mini was also considered a “game” by quite a
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

“We continue to make our case for ‘this is how it needs to work’ and ‘this is how it needs to function’. But we are moving ahead with the assumption that any platform we release it on must support cross-progression and cross-play. I am aware of the conflict that arises given that statement but we are continuing to work on
