Microsoft Flight Simulator PMDG Boeing 737-600 Gets First Video; Pilatus PC-12 Gets New Screenshots; San Antonio Airport Released

1 year 9 months ago

Today more reveals were shared about upcoming add-ons for Microsoft Flight Simulator, on top of a relevant airport release.

We get to see the very first video of the upcoming Boeing 737-600 by PMDG (shared by PMDG Technical team member and YouTuber 737NG Driver), which is coming soon.

Not only do we get to see how the aircraft behaves and why it’s affectionately nicknamed the “pocket rocket” by the team at PMDG, but we also witness the new lateral navigation suite in action. This is interesting even if you’re not interested in the -600 specifically, as it will be implemented on the -700 as well.

We also get confirmation that it’ll be priced at $49.99 and that PMDG will pack liveries for every single real-world operator out of the box.

New Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope Video Showcases Bowser, Spark Powers, and More

1 year 9 months ago

Ubisoft has released a six-minute video for the upcoming strategy game Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope that details some aspects of the adventure for the very first time. Specifically, it dives into details about Bowser, different planets in the game, as well as Spark Powers.

The video is in the format of interview with the game’s lead producer Xavier Manzanares. He shares details about each of these aspects and their roles in the game.

Manzanares begins by talking about new characters that are added to the game, such as Edge, one of the Rabbid heroes, and how each new character contributes uniquely to the gameplay. He also discusses Bowser as an ally in the game and how it is surprising for him to be on the same team as Mario.

Next, they examine some of the planets, such as Beacon Beach and how it is overcome with darkness when Mario and his friends arrive. We see some brief gameplay clips of other planets that you can expect to travel to in the game and how each one has multiple zones, focusing on discovery and exploration.

Each planet has wardens who are important allies that tell the heroes what is needed in order to restore peace. Manzanares touches on how they are full of personality.

Finally, the interview dives into Spark Powers and how two can be equip to each hero. They each come with active and passive bonuses that will help you gain the upper hand in battles. Any spark can be equip to any hero, allowing for plenty of different techniques to succeed.

Is Jon Snow Coming to MultiVersus?

1 year 9 months ago

With MultiVersus now in Open Beta and LeBron James in the fight, players are certainly wondering what is next. Warner Bros. has tons of IP under its umbrella, so there’s a lot of potential characters out there. For those wondering about other Game of Thrones characters, we are here to answer if Jon Snow is coming to MultiVersus.

Jon Snow in MultiVersus

At time of writing, there was no official word on Jon Snow joining the MultiVersus roster. Currently, the only known upcoming characters being added to MultiVersus are Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith.

That is absolutely not to say that Jon Snow isn’t a possible addition. Considering the present roster features Arya Stark, Game of Thrones is a likely place the game will pull from in the future when it comes to new characters.

As a matter of fact, with LeBron James, there are only two characters in MultiVersus that come from live-action (or semi-live action, in the case of Space Jam 2) properties.

We will be sure to keep you up-to-date on this topic in the future, should there be an official announcement. For now, that is all we have to share on if Jon Snow is coming to MultiVersus.

There should also be some more Multiversus content down below that you may find helpful, as well as some other news about the title. They include plenty of other helpful guides, features, and quizzes you’ll surely love.

What Remains of Edith Finch Now Available for Xbox Series X|S & PS5

1 year 9 months ago

During today’s showcase from Annapurna Interactive, it was announced that What Remains of Edith Finch is available to play now on Xbox Series X|S and Playstation 5.

What Remains of Edith Finch, developed by Giant Sparrow, was released back in 2017 and centers around a woman named Edith who has a familial curse in which all but one member of each generation will die in a strange way.

The game can now be played natively with 4K and 60FPS support on Xbox Series X|S and PS5. Players who already own What Remains of Edith Finch on Xbox One and PS4 are able to upgrade for free, though it currently seems as though Playstation users who claimed the game from PS+ cannot get the upgrade for free (we’ll update this if that changes).

Where To Find the Coolest Player on the Island in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3 (Week 8 Quest)

1 year 9 months ago

Fortnite weekly quests can have pretty vague requirements. Even with that in mind, this one might be the most confusing that players have encountered in the last few seasons. Out of all the week eight quests, this one is likely to give players the most trouble in figuring it out. Here’s where to find the coolest player on the island in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3.

Where is the Coolest Player on the Island

You will first want to make your way to this long gas station northwest of Rocky Reels. It’s easy to find and not usually a very popular drop if you want to land there from the bus.

My Hero Academia’s Season 5 OVAs Are a Welcome Respite From the Chaos That’s to Come

1 year 9 months ago

As I rolled the credits on the My Hero Academia Season 5 OVAs, I felt something the anime hasn’t left me with in a while: Relief.

To be sure, the anime has been intentionally fraught with high-stakes confrontations and escalating conflicts between the heroes and villains. Shigaraki is gaining ground in his goal to tear the hero-centric world down, and Midoriya is racing against time to get his many One for All powers in check before their eventual confrontation. It’s all set to come to a head in the sixth season, where the Heroes and Villains are prepared to collide in a decisive clash of good vs. evil.

It’s a great setup and is sure to provide some payoff to the last few seasons’ laying of groundwork for the wider story. However, it’s hard not to feel like certain elements have fallen to the wayside as a result. Chief among them is the fact that while a superhero-filled society can have some intriguing problems to address, there’s also plenty of room for fun and hijinks.

This is where the latest OVAs come in. Neither covers canon material from the series and instead gives fans a chance to see elements of the world that haven’t been fully explored yet. One sees superheroes duking it out in an HLB baseball match where powers are used to full effect. The other sees heroes unable to overcome an accidental criminal’s quirk through fighting, instead sending them off to explore other means of resolving a villain’s troublemaking.

And honestly, they’re a blast to watch. For every cheesy bit that goes on a bit too long, there’s quality animation and a decent character arc that plays out. The tropes which have been done to death in the show are used sparingly, and characters that have been pushed from the spotlight get an opportunity to return for a fun scene or two.

Is Marvel’s Fantastic Four an Origin Movie?

1 year 9 months ago

Marvel Studios has an ever-expanding library of movies and shows releasing in the next few years, one of which will be a reboot of the Fantastic Four films. Given that this new film is a reboot of “Marvel’s First Family, ” many people are asking whether or not this movie will be an origin story of the classic characters. Thankfully, Twinfinite has the answer for you on whether or not Marvel’s Fantastic Four will be an origin movie right down below.

Is Marvel’s Fantastic Four an Origin Movie?

No, Marvel’s Fantastic Four will not be an origin movie. According to the The Hollywood Reporter, Kevin Fiege stated that the movie will take the same approach that Spider-Man: Homecoming took, with the Fantastic Four already being established heroes before the film starts.

Now, does this mean that there will be zero mention or influence from the Fantastic Four’s origin? No, it does not, as we could very well receive information regarding their origin, which is worth noting is something that Spider-Man: Homecoming also did, with a brief mention of the spider bite there.

Marvel seems to be very much of the opinion that because there have already been three Fantastic Four movies, with two completely separate casts telling their own versions of the origin story, that Marvel Studios does not need to tell their origin again.

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Delayed To November

1 year 9 months ago

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide has been delayed to November to allow the development team to improve key systems.

The delay was announced in a statement written by Martin Wahlund, Co-Founder of Fatshark Games, and posted to Warhammer 40K’s Twitter account. Wahlund relayed the team’s disappointment in delaying the game but confirmed that it was a necessary decision to make it the best it can be:

Delaying a game is perhaps the most difficult decision a developer faces and one we are not excited about making. Still, we hope this speaks to the commitment to taking the time necessary and doing whatever it takes to get you the best possible game.

Wahlund notes the “great feedback” that the game has gotten so far but it seems that there’s still work to be done on performance and stability. In order to continue incorporating player feedback, a series of technical tests and beta will be released in the coming months which players can participate in.

Sega Kicks Off Valkyria Chronicles’ 15th Anniversary Celebrations With Raita Honjou Exhibition

1 year 9 months ago

Today Sega announced the beginning of the celebrations for the 15th anniversary of the beloved strategy JRPG Valkyria Chronicles.

The game was originally released in Japan for PS3 on April 24, 2008, so the anniversary will happen on April 23, 2023. According to the press release, it has sold over a million copies including the remastered version and digital downloads.

The beginning of the celebrations will be marked by an art exhibition and plenty of merchandise made available for sale.

The exhibition will happen in multiple stages and the first is a personal exhibition featuring character designer Raita Honjou starting on July 31, 2022, and ending on September 4 at the Phrase Gallery in Akihabara, Tokyo. This first stage will include 50 art pieces. A second stage will follow in the fall.

Honjou-sensei’s art will also be featured in a ton of merchandise including artbooks, clear files, tapestries, desk mats, acrylic figures, and more.

You can check out samples in the gallery below, and yes, unsurprisingly fan-favorite antagonist Selvaria Bles takes the lion’s share because that’s just what she does.

At the moment, we don’t know whether there will be further initiatives to celebrate Valkyria Chronicles’ anniversary, but I certainly hope there will be.

Valkyria Chronicles 4 was released nearly four years ago, so times are certainly mature for something new, but we’ll have to wait and see.

Is Guillermo de la Cruz Gay in What We Do in The Shadows? Answered

1 year 9 months ago

If you love watching What We Do in the Shadows, you’ve also probably had a lot of questions regarding one of the show’s main protagonists, Guillermo de la Cruz, over the three seasons that it’s been airing. The familiar turned bodyguard has become a fan favorite as things have gone on, providing levity and a straight-man approach to all the crazy situations the group finds themselves in. But many are wondering, is Guillermo gay in What We Do in the Shadows? And if he so, is he in love with Nandor? Let’s find out.

Is Guillermo Gay in What We Do in The Shadows?

While there hasn’t been explicit confirmation in the show yet, yes, Guillermo de la Cruz is gay in What We Do in The Shadows. In an interview with Advocate, Guillermo actor Harvey Guillén has confirmed that Guillermo is a queer character

“With Guillermo, I can certainly say that identify him as queer because he always has borderline homoerotic moments with his master,” said Guillen. He compared the relationship between Nandor and Guillermo to one “where you’re a little too familiar with the person you’re working with and that crosses into an emotional attachment.”

This shouldn’t really come as a shock to fans, as it has been speculated for a while, especially considering how he acts around Nandor. What’s interesting is that we might actually get confirmation of this character’s queerness soon, as a few things in the recent episodes lean heavily into the notion that the Van Helsing descendent actually already has a boyfriend.

How To Fix Dev Error 5476 in Warzone

1 year 9 months ago

Activision’s free-to-play FPS is one of the world’s most popular games, but it certainly suffers from its fair share of glitches and bugs. Here’s how to fix dev error 5476 in Call of Duty Warzone if you’re struggling with the issue.

How To Fix Dev Error 5476 Warzone

Dev error 5476 can be caused by a number of different issues, so fixing it hinges on pinpointing which of the following potential issues is the root cause:

  • Attempting to play the game with crossplay enabled
  • A bug that affects Calling Cards and/or Emblems
  • Corrupt game files

You’ll need to identify which it is via the process of elimination. Thankfully, disabling crossplay is simple enough; head to your account from the options menu and untick the crossplay option.

As for Calling Cards and Emblems, you simply want to do the opposite of whatever you have currently selected; if you have it set to random, choose a specific one; if you’ve chosen a specific Calling Card/Emblem, set it to random. This is done from the Barracks menu, in case you aren’t aware.

If you’re still encountering dev error 5476 after disabling crossplay and changing your Calling Card/Emblem setup, then you may, unfortunately, have corrupt game files. To solve this issue, you have two options: attempting to scan and repair files via the Blizzard update functionality or reinstalling the game.

Apex Legends: Hunted Launch Trailer shows Vantage in Action

1 year 9 months ago

The launch trailer for Apex Legends: Hunted sees new legend Vantage show off her prowess with a sniper ahead of the update this August.

Vantage is thrown headfirst into the action as she faces off against other legends in the Apex Games with the help of her squadmates. In the trailer, we get to find out a little more about Vantage’s motivations. We got a glimpse of Vantage’s origins in her character trailer which sees her learn to survive the wilds of pagos alongside her Mother who is wrongfully imprisoned.

It looks like Vantage’s motivation for competing in the games is to prove her Mother’s innocence. The trailer was capped with a tease that the first glimpse of gameplay for Apex Legends: Hunted would debut on Aug. 1.

The Hunted update is coming to Apex Legends on Aug. 9 and the addition of Vantage is just the tip of the iceberg for the new season. EA and Respawn have promised to provide more details closer to launch but the Apex Legends website has teased that Kings Canyon will be “reforged”

On top of that, the Hunted update will increase the level cap for players and introduce the Hunted Battle Pass which will include weekly and daily challenges that players can take on to get Legendary Skins and Reactive Weapon Skins.

Check out the launch trailer below to see Vantage take on the other legends.

Final Fantasy XIV North American Data Center Expansion Delayed

1 year 9 months ago

Today Square Enix released an announcement about the previously-revealed expansion of the Final Fantasy XIV North American Data Center.

The message, signed directly by producer and director Naoki Yoshida, explains that the server vendor has informed Square Enix of a delay in the delivery of the necessary equipment due to the ongoing semiconductor shortage.

As a result, despite efforts by Square Enix to find an alternate solution, the first phase of the expansion won’t happen in August as previously announced. It will be delayed to November 2022.

The first phase will include the opening of a new logical data center with four new worlds.

A second phase, which is supposed to add four more worlds to the same logical data center, remains scheduled for spring or summer 2023.

Yoshida-san accompanied the announcement with its apologies to those who were looking forward to the new servers.

Final Fantasy XIV is currently available for PlayStation 4, PS5, and PC. The Endwalker expansion has been released a few months ago and you can read our recent review.

Prepare Yourself Better Call Saul Fans, The Next Episode Is Titled Breaking Bad

1 year 9 months ago

The final season of Better Call Saul is almost at its end, and fans simply can’t get enough of the drama that’s been unfolding these past few episodes. Whether it’s all of the death or the emotional heartbreak, the show is proving once again that series creator Vincent Gilligan is still a master of his craft.

And while there are still a lot of questions left hanging in the air, one of the big ones fans are still waiting to have answered is: where are Jesse Pinkman and Walter White?

During a panel at PaleyFest LA earlier this year, Better Call Saul co-creator Peter Gould revealed that the Meth-making duo would be making an appearance this season, so what better episode to show up in than the one named after their show? That’s right, the next episode is indeed called Breaking Bad.

The title card of the next episode was revealed earlier this week, accompanied by the synopsis of “The partners escalate their enterprise to new levels.” Just about everything about this screams that Jesse and Walter will be showing up on Monday.

Of course, the title and synopsis could just end up being bait, as Gilligan is known for subverting expectations when it comes to how he writes each episode. Combine this with the fact that the previews are all about Gene, and it wouldn’t too shocking if we either don’t get Jesse and Walter this episode, or maybe we just get them in a flashback sequence.

What do you think? Is Gilligan trying to throw fans for a loop? Will Gene Break Bad? Or are Walter and Jesse returning? Be sure to let us know in the comment section below.

  • Sky-High Sundae, a brand new course that will later be added to Mario Kart Tour

This wave of new courses added to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is just the second of a total of six that will eventually be added to the game. The first wave of eight courses was added back in March.

Four more waves of eight courses each will be released one at a time by the end of 2023. This means that a grand total of 48 additional courses will ultimately be added to the game. As you can see, they consist of courses from previous Mario Kart games, but it also appears as though brand new courses that will eventually be added to Mario Kart Tour can also appear.

The Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass costs $24.99 as an individual purchase. If you are subscribed to the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, you will be able to play the courses at no additional cost.

You can watch the trailer that features each of these eight courses coming to the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass below.

Sentinels’ Shroud Says There’s a “Very Good Chance” He Will Continue Pro Valorant After LCQ

1 year 9 months ago

Michael ‘Shroud’ Grzesiek’s addition to Sentinel’s professional Valorant team last month was a move few saw coming, and given the player’s enormous following on Twitch has a lot of fans excited. A large part of the intrigue is, of course, how he’ll perform after so many years away from the competitive scene, and how long his tenure with Sentinels will last. Well, Shroud spoke about the matter himself during stream from the team’s bootcamp yesterday evening, and it turns out that he’s potentially in it for the long haul.

“If franchising is a thing, and it is in LA, which is where I live, there’s a very good chance I will continue to play professional Valorant,” Shroud explained to his stream. He continued: “Is it with Sentinels? I don’t know, are they in franchising? I have no idea.”

Franchising is set to transform Valorant’s professional scene in 2023, changing the dynamic of how teams are involved with the game’s highest level of competition. Instead of the open qualifying system for the Valorant Champions Tour, which has existed up until this point, only a dozen or so partnered esports organizations will be involved in various super leagues around the world. Riot Games has been conducting interviews with North America’s most prestigious organizations all year, and question marks over Sentinels’ status still remain.

Depending on whether Sentinels make it in, which could rest on their performance at the Last Chance Qualifier (LCQ) to attend Champions next month, it sounds as though Shroud may or may not stick with Sentinels. From his comments, he might otherwise entertain moving to an organization that did make it in to continue as a professional.

Star Ocean: The Divine Force Gets New Trailer & Screenshots Revealing DUMA & Its Gameplay Mechanics

1 year 9 months ago

Today Square Enix released a new trailer and screenshots of the upcoming Star Ocean JRPG Star Ocean: The Divine Force.

We get to meet “DUMA,” a mysterious entity with advanced intelligence and consciousness. It’s associated with the serial number 004213 and it looks like a machine, but it’s actually a life form. Its purpose is unknown, but it decides to accompany the heroes for some reason.

DUMA can grant supernatural abilities to each person it accompanies. A typical DUMA ability is “Vanguard Assault” (VA for short).

Vanguad Assault grants aerial movement, allowing characters to fly at high speed in any direction both in the field and within a city. It can be used repeatedly and can help you find hidden objects.

There are crystals scattered around the world that can help DUMA grow. Finding and collecting them will give you an edge.

DUMA can also use “Field Scan” simplifying greatly the search for hidden items across the field, which would otherwise be very challenging to spot.

You can also use VA Attack. Holding the appropriate button makes your character levitate and releasing it lets you perform a flying attack that can deal a lot of damage.

Blind Side attacks let you dash out of the enemy’s field of view and then suddenlòy change direction executing a VA Attack. This stuns the enemy and increases damage further.

The Hate Radar lets you see the field of view of the enemies and their direction of attack, showing a path for your Blind Side attacks.

There are enemies with a wide field of view that usually cannot be blindsided, but you can restrict it by meeting certain conditions.

You can also perform a VA attack before the battle begins. If you can hit an enemy while it’s unaware, you will receive a “Surprise Attack Bonus.”

1 year 9 months ago

The trend of the Pikachu Jets dedicated to the Pokemon franchise is seeing a resurgence in Asia, and today a new one has been announced.

The new Airliner was revealed by The Pokemon Company in partnership with Taiwan’s state-owned flag carrier China Airlines.

It’s called Pikachu Jet CI (“CI” is China Airlines’ IATA code) and it’s ai Airbus A321 with the registration code B18101.

Interestingly, this is a brand new airframe (it was delivered in November 2021) that has been flying from Taipei to various destinations in Asia like Hong Kong, Manila, Phnom Penh, and Yangon.

It portrays a variety of Pokemon including Pikachu himself, Jigglypuff, Snorlax, Slowpoke, Munna, Swablu, and Shaymin (thanks Rebecca Stone for the expertise).

Below you can see what it looks like and read an official description. Since it mentions “eleven Pokemon,” it’s likely that the other side is different, but it hasn’t been revealed yet. Shaymin is the only one mentioned that isn’t visible for now.

Warzone: How To Fix ‘Lost Connection To Host/Server. Connection Timed Out.’ In Golden Plunder

1 year 9 months ago

Many players are hopping into a match of Golden Plunder in Call of Duty: Warzone, only to be kicked out shortly after. Before they can start up another match, an error appears stating that there’s an issue with the server or host. If you are receiving that message, here’s what you can do to fix the ‘Lost Connection To Host/Server. Connection Timed Out’ error in Golden Plunder.

Warzone: How To Fix ‘Lost Connection To Host/Server. Connection Timed Out.’ In Golden Plunder

Check Warzone’s Server Status

The first move you’ll want to make is checking if Warzone’s servers are currently down. This is especially helpful if you’re receiving the error in game modes other than Golden Plunder. Activision has an official site that lists outages and the server status for each platform Warzone is available on.

  1. Visit Warzone’s official Online Services page.
  2. Under ‘Server Status By Network,’ choose the platform you’re playing on.
  3. Double-check that the platform’s servers are up and running.

Reset Your Modem/Router

If Warzone’s servers are running just fine, the next solution is restarting your modem and router. This should dump any and all temporary files, along with any errors that may have piled up over time. In fact, you should make a regular habit of this every few months.
