World of Warcraft's Goblin delivering some patch notes

If you've spent your time PvPing throughout World of Warcraft: Legion, you're no doubt aware of how funky the reward system is right now. You can spend 20 minutes having a back-and-forth Battleground match, end up losing by a mere few points, only to have all of that effort rewarded with a majestic 7 gold. And then you queue into a Battleground that's nearly finished and you get an epic ring, because why not!

Thankfully, this isn't the Blizzard from Warlords of Draenor as they have listened to the complaints and are soon implementing a variety of changes. Once Patch 7.1 finally arrives on October 25th PvP will award more Artifact power, a guaranteed piece of gear from every battleground win, more Honor from daily wins, and best of all, a guaranteed piece of Gladiator gear each week!

Titanfall 2's main character and his Titan

All the way back in February Respawn Entertainment promised that Titanfall 2 will have a heavy emphasis on story and relatable characters, but I can't say I ever imagined I would be getting attached to a robot. However, after watching the latest single player campaign video, I must admit that BT is currently much more interesting to me than the protagonist himself!

If you don't believe me, just have a look at the most recent video yourself. It features a brief introduction to the story behind Titanfall 2, as well as the budding bromance between our two main characters: Jack Cooper, a militia rifleman who ended up in the right place at the wrong time, and BT-7274, a Vanguard class Titan who found himself without a pilot. Here's the video:

Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 a screenshot showcasing a drone launch

After quite a few mediocre PC ports of otherwise good games, I must say I'm quite happy to see not one, but two AAA games delayed due to concerns about quality! Ubisoft has recently delayed Watch Dogs 2 in order to make the PC version as good as it can possibly be, and apparently CI Games are doing the same with Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3, though for all platforms.

As you can probably guess from the title alone, Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 will now be launching on April 4, 2017 for the PC, Playstation 4, and Xbox One. If you're wondering why exactly this is happening, here's a brief quote from Marek Tymiński (CEO of CI Games) explaining the team's need for an extra few months:

Cursed Castilla is a Ghosts n' Goblins inspired adventure

If you're a fan of Ghosts n' Goblins, or any such action-platformer that prides itself on offering a real challenge, you might want to have a look at the upcoming Cursed Castilla (Maldita Castilla EX). Its an arcade action-platformer originally from the Xbox One, and filled to the brim with deadly creatures from Spanish myths and folklore - a settings that you don't really get too see much in games these days... or well, ever.

But first things first, you're probably wondering how similar is Cursed Castilla to the fabled Ghosts n' Goblins? Well, to put this quite bluntly, the answer is pretty damn similar! If you don't believe me, just have a look at the recently posted (and quite heroic) trailer:

A screenshot from the Civilization 6 cinematic trailer

The Civilization series has always had amazing launch trailers, and even to this very day I cannot watch them without getting goosebumps. If you think you are immune to such frivolous things, just have a look at one of the cinematic trailers for Civilization: Beyond Earth - it is a masterpiece of storytelling given how many emotions you'll go through while watching a 3 minute long video!

With such an impressive legacy behind it, the cinematic trailer for Civilization 6 had a lot to live up to. And while I would love to tell you its the best one yet, in my personal opinion its somewhere around the middle in terms of quality, though don't take that the wrong way - its still beyond impressive for what is essentially a trailer for a strategy game! But enough rambling from me, have a look for yourself:

Watch Dogs 2 cafe screenshot

While the title might bring with it a negative connotation, the truth of the matter is that Ubisoft is delaying the PC version of Watch Dogs 2 until November 29th in order to ensure its quality. But rather than simply offer up empty promises, Ubisoft also released a list of extra features the PC version of Watch Dogs 2 will be arriving with.

Before we get into all of that, it would probably be a good idea to show you what sort of a rig you'll need in order to actually run Watch Dogs 2 with some of these settings enabled. You'll find the minimum and recommended system requirements right below:

Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide Ranger screenshot

For those of you that don't know, Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide is a four player co-op adventure in the vein of Left 4 Dead, though instead of zombies and mutated nasties you have to deal with an even bigger menace - the Skaven. While it does have a couple of annoying flaws, Vermintide is a truly excellent co-op game and one I've spent a good chunk of hours playing, so if you're a fan of L4D, give it a look.

The reason I'm telling you this now is because Vermintide just recently got updated with a brand new piece of free DLC - Quests & Contracts. As you would expect from the name alone, the update introduces a whole bunch of new ways to gather loot and temporary buffs, all with the intent of make your rat-slaying job even more fruitful. Here's a brief developer video explaining how the whole system works:
