    PUBG Mobile Adds Rocket Launcher, New Zombie Mode In Latest Update

    PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds or PUBG Mobile, in the one year it has been available, has quickly grown to become one of the most popular smartphone games of all times. Tencent, the team behind the game, has added a host of new features in the latest beta update. The latest update carries the version 0.12.0 and adds features like new weapons, event and an all-new spectate functionality. 

    What’s New?

    The latest update of PUBG Mobile is available to download for selected users under the beta program. The biggest noticeable change is the addition of a new Zombie Mode. Available under the event section, the description of it says, ‘Collect supplies during the day and fend off zombies at night. Survive until the rescue arrives to win!’. The text suggests gameplay wherein players would need to exterminate or ward off the zombies for a selected time period until rescue arrives. Notably, this will be different from the existing Zombie mode wherein players need to eradicate the Zombies and also fight off other players to be the last one standing.

    The update to PUBG Mobile also adds new weapons. The first weapon added is a Rocket Launcher and was highly anticipated by the players. Another weapon is an explosive crossbow, which would blow up when hitting the target. These two weapons are expected to be exclusive to the new Zombie Mode and will not be available in the normal game. A friendly spectate is also being added to the game. This would let a players friend spectate them while playing. It will also display the player’s information and the number of people watching. The crosshair colour, which is used to aim in the game, can now be changed.

For the login screen, a new cosmetic change will be available. An eagle, termed as a companion, will be added to the character’s shoulder which would feature emotes. While not a big change, it will add an ornamental update to the existing game. Unfortunately, it is not known when the above features will be available in the stable update of the mobile game, but their addition to the beta mode insinuates that it may be added in the following weeks. 

  • Apple Arcade: Which Are The Top Games So Far?

    Apple Arcade: Which Are The Top Games So Far?

    The first quarter of 2019 was a substantial period for gaming, and there are still 9 months to go for any further launches and innovations. At GDC 2019, Google released Stadia, a (supposedly) amazing cloud gaming service, yet no release date or pricing for the same was unveiled at the event. Gamers were just getting over the “hardware-independent gaming” hype, when Apple announced its own subscription-based gaming service, known as the Apple Arcade at the Apple Show Time event on March 26, 2019. Additionally, the company also launched the Apple News+, Apple TV+ and the Apple Card.

    https://youtu.be/67umVefSXnY

    Apple Arcade is different from Google Stadia in a lot of aspects. For starters, where players need an active high-speed internet connection to play games using Stadia, games can simply be downloaded on the device with Apple Arcade and can be played without internet. Furthermore, it’s not clear whether Stadia will employ a subscription model or a pay-per-game model, but it’s clear as daylight that Apple will allow you to play multiple games on its Arcade store with just a simple “game pass”, which is similar to the payment model that Xbox users adhere to.

    A lot of big game developers and publishers are already a part of Apple’s (game) plan. Sega, Konami, Annapurna and Platinum Games are just some of the companies that are backing Apple up on this. To gamers’ pleasant surprise, Hironobu Sakaguchi, the video designer who had a key role in the making of the acclaimed “Final Fantasy” series is also releasing a game called “Fantasian” on Apple’s new platform. The company also promises that new games will keep making their way into Arcade’s library, making sure that the subscribers are never devoid of fresh content.

    https://youtu.be/95FuVib8mcY

    Given below are some games that have been confirmed for Apple’s platform. However, note that users won’t be able to play any of these games on Arcade until Apple brings the service to the market. As per the company’s statement, Apple Arcade will go live later during Fall 2019.

    Hot Lava

    Hot Lava is an adaptation of the childhood game “The floor is lava”, where children have to keep jumping from one furniture piece to another, pretending that the floor is lava. Except in this game, the floor is literally lava. The game’s trailer depicts it as quite a fun game to play, with fluid parkour moves being used by the character to escape the onslaught of the lava. The game is designed by Klei Entertainment, and by the looks of it, a lot of gamers will have an amazing time with this game.

    Team Sonic Racing

    Although Team Sonic was first launched at E3 2018, it is making its way to the list of the very first games that Apple Arcade users will be able to play. One of the most lovable characters in the SEGA universe, Sonic will take on his opponents with the help of his friends. But no more “knuckle” violence, instead, players will be able to choose from a list of 15 playable characters to race on a track with a plethora of vehicle options. With a colourful environment and fast-paced gameplay, Team Sonic has already proven its worth on consoles, and will now charm its way out of Apple gamers.

    Check out more about the game on its official website.

    The Pathless

    Indie games have been a key part in driving interests of gamers away from genres like Battle Royale and Competitive FPS games. Such a beautiful indie title is The Pathless, which, similarly to Team Sonic, was first revealed three months back for PS4 and PC (Epic games). However, the game has now also been confirmed to arrive on Apple Arcade. The game depicts the mysterious adventure of an archer who befriends an eagle and travels through a vast forest. Noteworthy, the game isn’t officially out yet, so players may have to wait to play it till the game actually releases in 2019.

    Check out the game’s website here.

    Sayonara Wild Hearts

    Sayonara Wild Hearts looks like a game derived straight out of a music video. The game is tough to describe, but as per the developer, the game is an “euphoric music video dream about being awesome, riding motorcycles, skateboarding, dance battling, shooting lasers, wielding swords, and breaking hearts at 200 mph.”. The game was originally scheduled for Nintendo Switch, but it seems that now the game is coming to Apple Arcade as well. The developer also claims to have almost zero loading times.

    LEGO Brawls

    With already a lot of fun-to-play games on different platforms, the LEGO Brawls gameplay trailer showcases a game that is built on a foundation unlike other LEGO games out there. As of now, the game is still under development, but the key point of the trailer is to exhibit how fun the game is. With huge robots, cute LEGO characters and LEGO weapons, the game puts a pretty good impression out there. Also, the game may also feature a battle royale mode for its fans.

    PUBG Mobile: How Can Players Check Their First Year Game Stats?

    Player’s Unknown Battlegrounds or PUBG is not a game anymore. It is an integral part of people’s lives these days. Gamers are hooked like crazy to the game, with good reason too! In February, the game completed one year of its launch, and Tencent has still kept the celebrations ongoing. Players can interact with various in-game items such as cakes and confetti in order to have fun with their squad. Another great update is the feature which allows PUBG players to check their statistics for the entire year.

    How To Check The Statistics?

    https://twitter.com/PUBGMobile_IN/status/1110776983779053568

    A tweet from the game’s official Twitter account made the users aware regarding the feature. Noteworthy, third-party websites and applications can do the same for PUBG PC players, but not a lot of applications existed to keep up with the player stats in PUBG Mobile. By the introduction of an in-game button for the same, the developers have taken a neat step towards integrating the statistics option with the game.

    For those players who are looking to access the statistics within the game, there’s an event button at the bottom right corner of the home screen of the game. Upon clicking that button, players have to scroll down a bit where they will see a section labelled as PUBG Mobile: First year, which will include a clickable link. After clicking, the in-game browser will take a minute or two to completely render the statistics page, where you can see a wide variety of information.

    Which Statistics Can You Check?

    The first year statistics page displays the total number of matches played, total wins, kills, damage dealt and the average distance travelled per match. In addition, the feature will display whether the most played game mode by a player is solo, duo or squads. Furthermore, players can see their favourite weapons and can even check how many times they were knocked out by a pan.

    It’s worthy to be noted that only classic matches will be taken into account, so players who regularly play arcade mode may not see their stats updated on the page. Also, players who have been out of the loop may need to update their game in order to see all the changes in the Season 6 PUBG update. Moreover, players can reply to PUBG Mobile’s official tweet with the screenshots of their statistics page to win an Anniversary parachute that will be permanently stored in the player’s inventory.

    PUBG Mobile Six-Hour Ban Lifted, Developers Issue Apology

    A few days ago, reports were rife that PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds or PUBG Mobile, an immensely popular game in India is imposing a new rule. This allowed the users to play the game for a period of six hours before being banned for the entire day. Many of the players were furious because of the decision and vented it out on various social media channels. In a tweet by the official Twitter account of PUBG Mobile India, the developers of the game have apologised, claiming the restriction was a bug, which has since been fixed, along with a few other bugs that were causing a hindrance in the gameplay.

    What Has Changed?

The Birthday Crate, which was put in place to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the game has been changed. A bug which let misuse of the coupons to get free in-game currency has also been fixed. Because of it, the payment service is functioning again after a brief hiatus.

As mentioned above, this restricted the users to play for more than six hours in a day. The official account claims the players will supposedly get to play the game without any interruptions. Despite the claimed fix, some users have reported the bug still persists. It is expected that the issue will be fixed for all users in the following days.

Now that the developers have alleged that was not the case, it should pacify most players of the game. The new fixes can be download by starting the game and downloading an in-app update.

  • Another Youngster Dies From Playing PUBG Excessively (Update: False)

    Another Youngster Dies From Playing PUBG Excessively (Update: False)

    Important Update:

    In the latest development to the story, it has since come to light that claims made regarding the demise of a 20-year-old boy named Sagar due to playing PUBG Mobile excessively were fake. As per Dr Raj Kiran, who treated late Sagar has clarified that the deceased was suffering from a serious infection and was undergoing treatment which was not caused due to playing the mobile game. 

    A video shared by friends of Sagar was misinterpreted which spread like a wildfire. It was revealed that friends of the deceased wanted to cheer him up while he was in tremendous pain. His friends talked about PUBG Mobile in the short clip which was mistaken to the cause of his sickness. Subsequently, the doctor has dismissed the previously made claims and has put an end to the sham news.

    Original Story

    Another day, another unfortunate news associated with the wildly popular PUBG Mobile is making headlines. A youngster based out of Jagtial, Telangana has died due to health implications caused because of playing PUBG mobile for extended periods of time. The deceased boy, Sagar who was 20 years old was addicted to the mobile game since the past 45 days. Reportedly, he played the game day in an day out which due to improper posture affected his nerves. Sagar, now deceased was admitted to a hospital in Hyderabad where he underwent treatment for 5 days. Sadly even in the hospital his condition did not improve and he subsequently passed. 

    Similar Instances Linked To PUBG Mobile

    There have been numerous unfavourable cases linked to PUBG mobile in the past that have shaken the nation. Earlier this week two youngsters residing from Maharashtra were mowed down by a train while they were playing the highly engrossing game near the railway tracks late in the night.  

    Another instance was of a young man from Chhindwara in Madhya Pradesh who drank acid mistaking it for water, while engaged in the PUBG mobile game. 

    Reaction Of Tencent, PUBG’s Developer

    Although Tencent is yet to release a statement on the mishap that has taken place in the country, it had previously imposed a lockdown which prevents a user from playing the game for more than  6 hours in a day. Also, users under the age of 13 in some regions are being prompted to a digital lockdown which needs the guardian or the device owner to unlock. Furthermore, the company is also expected to take even resolute steps to curb its addiction in order to prevent a foreseen ban.

    The question is profoundly complicated but banning the game altogether might not be the guaranteed measure to prevent such mishaps from occurring in the future. As if one game is banned completely, another might turn out to be more successful than the existing one. Therefore, users need to be reformed by educating them and making them aware of the ill effects that can be followed by digital unhygiene. 

  • PUBG Mobile May Be Updated With A Play Time Restriction of 6 Hours in India

    PUBG Mobile May Be Updated With A Play Time Restriction of 6 Hours in India

    PUBG Mobile is insanely popular and infamous in India at the same time. The battle royale game has gathered the reputation of being one of the most addictive games of all time but at the same time, the strong addiction is proving to be harmful to a lot of students in the country. The game is affecting the performance of the students in an adverse way. Amidst a lot of controversies, the game has been banned in some cities of Gujarat. Now, probably as a step towards reversing that ban, reports say that the game may be updated with a time restriction soon.

    About The Update

    https://twitter.com/snjayraolendhar/status/1109021679127166977

    This seems like a pretty straightforward move by the company to take up accountability for the fact that the game is a negative influence on some students. Players may be locked out of the game once they play the game for a time period that exceeds the limit. Users on Twitter reported that they are being locked out of the game after playing it for a time period of six hours of usage. The game also issues “health reminders” after two hours and four hours regarding the same.

    This initiative may be a part of an OTA (Over-the-air) update that’s being pushed out to select PUBG players in the country. Noteworthy, the time restriction may have something in relation to the age of the user. The hostility regarding the game can be attributed to the fact that children and students are ignoring their surroundings for the sake of the game, which is leading to heart wretching cases across the country. Earlier in March, a couple of students were mauled to death by a train while they were engrossed in the game. Previously, a 25-year-old person accidentally drank acid instead of water while hooked to the game. All these incidents have forced the Government to take harsh actions regarding the game. In reports earlier, 10 students were arrested in Rajkot, Gujarat for the same.

    The company has released a statement asserting that it is hoping to discuss its objectives with relevant authorities and remove the ban on the game in the affected cities. If this is the case, this step may just brighten up PUBG Mobile’s image a tad bit in the eyes of Indian parents and other concerned authorities. Note that no official statement regarding the “time based” restriction is released by the company yet. Screenshots of the update are being shared across Twitter by disgruntled users, which suggests that an update may be on its way.

    Update Features

    The Season 6 update will introduce new weapons like the G36C in the game. The rifle will be exclusive to the snow-laden Vikendi Map and will act as a replacement to the SCAR-L assault rifle. Both the guns utilize 5.56 mm ammunition.

    The Season 6 update will bring forward two Elite pass variants, the Elite Pass and the Elite Pass Plus.

The pass will also include subscriptions, with two different plans called Prime and the Prime Plus. They will provide free UC, RP etc.

    Erangel and Miramar will finally be playable in dynamic weather conditions. Previously, Vikendi and Sanhok were the only maps in the game to sport dynamic weather.

  • 5 Best Battle Royale Alternatives To PUBG Mobile

    5 Best Battle Royale Alternatives To PUBG Mobile

    Battle Royale is a video game genre that has taken the world by storm. It’s a genre that every gamer is excited to witness because it is full of excitement and fast-paced action. Battle Royale basically refers to surviving in a battleground by killing other enemies and being the last man standing at the end of the game. Over the previous months, a lot of popular game developers have released Battle Royale-themed games, one of which is the insanely viral PUBG Mobile. With over 100 million downloads on the Android Play Store, PUBG has taken over the world with its simple-to-understand interface and fun-to-play modes.

    But some low-end devices may not run PUBG smoothly, which may lead to a poor experience during the game. Some players may even get bored with playing PUBG after a given time, so here are 5 alternatives to the game that promise an equally fun experience and additional features.

    Fortnite

    Fortnite is the closest contender to PUBG in the Battle Royale arena. One of the most played games on PC, the game has been available on smartphones since 2018. Previously, the game became a cultural phenomenon, thanks to promotion by Drake, Marshmello, and Ninja. Consequently, when the game was released on smartphones, an audience was already waiting. The game is pretty easy to get into, with a colourful interface setting it apart from other battle royale games. Players can purchase costumes and other cosmetic items via microtransactions in the application.

    Android users cannot download the game directly from the Play store, instead, players can download the game directly from the Epic Games Website. iOS users can download the game here

    Rules Of Survival

    At the first look, some players might mistake Rules of Survival for PUBG Mobile. The game has a similar interface and has over 10 million Google Play downloads. With the studio claiming to have over 230 million worldwide players in the game, Rules of Survival allows up to 120 players to battle it out in an 8×8 km map. A huge variety of terrains are available in the game, and an even larger variety of vehicles are available to help you explore those terrains. Players can play solo or in squads. The controls are very easy to apprehend and the players like the game because of a smooth experience. The game has three servers across Asia, America and Europe.

    Download links for the game are listed below:

    Free Fire – Battlegrounds

    What if players had a limited time to survive on the battlefield, a lower number of players to battle against and a simpler interface to try their hands on? Free fire – Battlegrounds brings all these features together and makes a fun-to-play game, even if it follows similar mechanics to other battle royale games. It has a staggering 100 million+ downloads on just the Play Store. The game is offered by Garena Studios. 

    The download links for Free Fire are given below:

    Pixel’s Unknown Battlegrounds

    Minecraft players may relate to this game because it is what it says it is. Pixelized characters fighting against each other in an epic battle of survival doesn’t sound very convincing, but it actually is. Pixel’s Unknown Battle Grounds may sound something like Player’s Unknown Battlegrounds, but it looks nothing like it. Retro visuals adorn the game, with harmless-looking weapons like the AK-47 and Multiple barrel shotguns scattered throughout the map. The game is still in beta, so players may encounter some bugs, but the game offers the smoothest experience out of many other 3D games out there.

With a multitude of maps like Nuketown, Crash, Standoff, Crossfire and Hijacked, the game will go up against the likes of PUBG Mobile and Fortnite mobile. Unlike PUBG and Fortnite, this franchise has a separate fanbase that is expected to follow the game’s development on mobile.

    The beta version of Call of Duty Mobile was first released in December 2018. The game featured different multiplayer modes like Free4All (Solo mode). Search and Destroy, Frontline and Team Deathmatches. Furthermore, Call of Duty introduces its iconic zombie mode in the mobile game. While the beta version of the game included just a single-player zombie mode, it is expected that the full version will have co-op multiplayer mode too.

    As per reports, players will be able to play as special characters from the Call of Duty universe. Furthermore, players will be able to customize their characters and weapons as to their liking. For doing so, they will have to spend in-game currency that can also be purchased digitally. The game will be a standalone title, with no correlation to any previous Call of duty storylines. To match up to the competition, the game will be free to download.

    5 Helpful Tricks To Earn A Chicken Dinner In PUBG Mobile

    PUBG Mobile is not just a mobile game anymore, it’s a global sensation. With a massive player count across the globe, the game is now an integral part of daily lives for some people. Streamers earn from it, students play it for recreation and this is just a small glimpse of it all. Tournaments with prize pools of over 1 crore are being held in the country. Like every other game out there, every player wants to aim for the number one spot in this game. But is it easy? Staying alive amidst 99 other bloodthirsty players or 24 other teams can be tougher than most players can speculate.

    Here are our 5 foolproof tricks that will increase your chances of earning the chicken dinner that you crave.

    1.  Strive To Survive

    If you want to win a game, remember that PUBG is not a deathmatch, it’s a survival game. You may have a good aim and praiseworthy skills, but none of it matters if you don’t make it to the endgame. This is why survival is key. Pay attention to your surroundings when you are parachuting down to the ground. Try to get the maximum loot from an area before a fight breaks out, and participate in the fight only if you have the resources necessary to do so. Try to draw the least amount of attention to yourself, because even the best players will find himself in a turmoil if they get shot at by multiple players simultaneously. 

    Remember, the story is always narrated by the one who survives till the end.

    2. Stick To Your Playing Style

    In every shooter game, there are generally two types of players. One who likes to go all out and shoot everything he/she sees anything in motion on the battlefield, and the other one who watches the movements of enemies from a safe distance and tries to raise as less conundrum as possible. If you belong to any one class of the aforementioned players, you’ll be more successful in the battlefield if you follow your instincts. If you have a good aim and are confident enough to take the enemy down in a single flurry of bullets, by all means, do so. But if you are not sure about pursuing this road, you can always play it safe and wait for the perfect moment to strike while lying in wait. You’ll always be a better player when you do what you can do best.

    Be the best version of the PUBG player you are.

    3. Pay Attention To The Sounds Around You

    Sound sense wins you almost 50 percent of the game. Professional PUBG players always focus on their surrounding noises on the battlefield. Knowing that someone is approaching you may be the only information you need to shoot that enemy down, even if they have better inventory than you. While playing the game, try to use earphones/headphones in order to gain an idea of directional sound during firefights. Moreover, keep paying attention to the minimap, because you can “see” nearby footsteps on the map even if you did not hear them. An orange directional marker will give you an indication of nearby enemies so that you can focus on that particular direction.

    It’s always good to invest in a good pair of headphones/earphones if you plan to take the game seriously.

    4. Manage Your Inventory

    Ever wondered why the backpack has a strict limit? This is because you can’t go around stuffing every item in there. A lot of PUBG players end up with a lot more ammunition than they need, or too little of healing equipment when it comes to bandaging up. In all entirety, you should never have more than 200 rounds of any ammunition in your backpack, because that’s just a waste of valuable space. Furthermore, if you’re using a sniper rifle, less than 100 ammunition rounds are more than sufficient for you. If you kill an enemy (or multiple enemies), you can always use their crates to stock up on ammunition and other equipment rather than filling your backpack up to its capacity. Some space should always be available in the backpack to flash-loot someone’s crate or a house (picking up equipment without paying attention to what you’re gathering).

    Point to be noted: An extra heavy backpack is a bad backpack.

    5. Teamwork Is The Key

    If you’re playing in a squad (which a lot more players prefer), you may have experienced a lack of coordination amongst your team. This is generally due to improper communication between players and can be fixed by informing your teammates regarding any important developments in the game. If you find some surplus ammunition that you know your teammate needs, use the pinging system or the chat system to inform him/her about it. Keep updating them about the incoming zone if you’re still outside the circle of safety. If you see an enemy who’s far from your reach, let your friend with a sniper rifle handle him. Never be afraid to toss a smoke grenade near your knocked-out teammate to revive him/her. Having an extra member on the squad can be the difference between a chicken dinner and a heartbreaking defeat.

    TLDR: Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships.

    Of course, there are a lot more points to be kept in mind like the use of scopes, attachments or weapon damage, but all these factors can be picked up eventually as you progress with a deeper understanding of the game. After all, it’s all worth it if you get to enjoy some delicious chicken dinners with your squad.

    10 Students Arrested For Playing PUBG In Gujarat

    PUBG or Player’s Unknown Battlegrounds is a battle royale game that almost everyone is familiar with these days. The game has seen massive popularity amongst teenagers and adults alike. Needless to say, a lot of school-going kids and students are hooked to the game, and this has led to an overall decrease in academic performance for a lot of students. Amidst rising concerns, On March 8, 2019, the state government of Gujarat announced that anyone found playing PUBG will be arrested under Section 188 of the Indian Penal Code. On March 13, 10 students were arrested for the same in Rajkot, Gujarat.

    Details

    This is the first time that people will hear anything of the sorts of “arrests made for gaming”. People were outraged, and a lot of them took to Twitter to address the issue. The students were ultimately released on bail, the police commissioner clarified. He also added that the booked students will be tried in a court in spite of all the circumstances.

    The game ban wasn’t just limited to PUBG Mobile.

According to reports, the game involved self-harming acts that eventually led to suicide. A lot of children were affected physically as well as mentally because of the game.

  • Pokemon Go Styled, Harry Potter Wizards United To Launch Soon

    Pokemon Go Styled, Harry Potter Wizards United To Launch Soon

    The creators of Pokemon Go are at the crease with another new game, and this time, players will explore the world of J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter Universe. Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is supposed to release in the upcoming months, and while the game aims to include all of the “walking and earning rewards” mechanics of Pokemon GO, it will also integrate a huge storyline and various other activities that will make the game much more complex than Pokemon GO. 

    Game Overview

    The first look of the game is now out, thanks to Warner Bros. and Niantic Games. The primary mission of the game is to save non-magic folk (also known as Muggles) from evil wizards, and capture them all before they cause any more havoc. The players will play as a recruit of the Statue of Secrecy Task Force, which is a venture by the Ministry of Magic and the International Confederation of Wizards to lock down all the rogue wizards that threaten the sanctity of the wizarding world.

    Players will use various magical spells and potions to defeat the wizards. During their adventures, players may find some magical items or characters called Foundables, which can only be dispelled if the player casts a magical spell on it. In doing so, players will earn unique rewards that can be accessed via the game Registry. Furthermore, players may find foundables at a variety of public places like parks, galleries, libraries, and monuments.

    Item Mechanics

    The game will also introduce “Spell Energy” to limit how much users can play in a given stretch of time. Once a player runs out of Spell Energy, he/she won’t be able to cast spells until the Spell energy is replenished at “Inns” by collecting food items and drinks. Also, the player can brew potions to help him/her during battles and travelling. The items required for brewing can be found around the map, and their availability depends on the environment (such as weather, time of day).

    Users may come across “Portmanteaus”, which can be unlocked to reveal different Porkeys around the whole map. Entering a portkey will take the player to AR environments from the Harry Potter universe, such as Ollivander’s Wand Shop.

    Combat Mechanics

    Fortresses are to Wizards Unite what Gyms are to Pokemon GO. To battle real-time opponents, players can head to multiple Fortresses on the map, where they can battle enemies such as Dementors and Death Eaters. Co-op battles would ensure higher chances of winning at such battles, as per the Game blog. The game will have different classes of wizards, namely Aurors, Magizoologists, and Professors. Players will have to strategize and team up with appropriate classes in order to defeat tough foes.
