This event is separate from Stufful Community Day which takes place on April 23. The Mudkip Community Day Classic will go live on April 10 and will last from 2pm -5pm local time. During this time, Mudkip will appear more frequently in the wild and you may even encounter a shiny one. If you Evolve Mudkip’s evolution Marshtomp during the event or up to two hours after the event, you will get a Swampert that knows the Charged Attack Hydro Cannon....

A STUDY IN SCARLET Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, the flagship games of a new Pokemon generation, find themselves in an interesting spot. A new Pokemon generation is always time for introspection, consideration, and gentle evolution - but earlier this year, a mere Pokemon spin-off tipped expectation of what the series can be upside down. The question that Scarlet & Violet face is easily asked, but challenging to answer: what does the next evolution of Pokemon look like, with all the tradition-disrupting ideas that Legends Arceus put forth taken into account?...

Just like in every other iteration of the ever-changing series, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Evolution Stones are rare and powerful items which help you to unlock the dormant potential of certain Pokemon. As well as much-loved mascots like Pikachu, brand-new creatures in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet also use evolution stones to ascend to a new form, including Capsakid - who turns into the unique, Grass/Fire mixed attacker, Scovillain - and Tadbulb, who evolves into the incredibly cute Bellibolt....

That’s according to Pokemon Database which lists Kleavor, Overquil, and Ursaluna as returning Pokemon (thanks, reddit, via GamesRadar). Eagle-eyed viwers spotted what appeared to be the Hisuian evolution of Zoroark earlier this year in a trailer, but Nintendo has yet to confirm whether any of the Arecus Pokemon will be in the game. It is also being said around the internet campfire that some Pokemon will only make it into Scarlet or Violet if transferred through Pokemon Home....

A release date for Crown Tundra has been announced for Pokemon Sword and Shield expansion pass owners. In the expansion, the second content releasing as part of the pass, it finds a man named Peony appointing you as leader of his exploration team and tasks you with investigating the frozen land. You will also explore the Pokemon Dens seen during Max Raid Battles, and come across unseen Legendary Pokemon which make the Crown Tundra their home....

A Gigantamax Festival has kicked off in Pokemon Sword and Shield alongside some nice transfer bonuses with Pokemon Home. Starting today, if you transfer one or more Pokemon from Pokemon Sword or Pokemon Shield to the Nintendo Switch version of Pokemon Home, you will be able to receive a Grookey, Scorbunny, and Sobble. Each will have their Hidden Abilities handed out as Mystery Gifts in the mobile device version of Home....

Split Pad Pros are licensed Joy-Cons for the Switch built to be more comfortable to hold and reminiscent of a regular game controller, similar to the Switch Pro Controller, but split in half to function like the Joy-Cons do, slotting them into the sides of the Switch itself. There’s three new Hori products that are particularly of note: a black and gold Pikachu model, a pale-blue model with white Pikachu and Eevee decals, and a left black and gold Pikachu Joy-Con designed with a D-Pad and more normal controls....

You can cast your vote for one of four Pokemon to be featured in the next Pokemon Go Community Day event. Voting will take place May 23-24 via the Pokemon Go Twitter account. Voting will kick off on May 23 at 6pm PDT, 9pm EDT (2am BST, 3am CEST), and end on May 24 at the same time. You will have 24 hours to cast one vote for the Pokemon you’d like for either the June or July Community Day....

Previously, the official Cyberpunk 2077 Twitter account was eager to remind players that buying the game on GOG ensures 100% of your money goes to CD Projekt Group. But what’s in it for fans showing their loyalty to Europe’s biggest video game company valued at $8.13 billion? Might they get a sneak early access to the game in the same way for certain game subscriptions or deluxe editions? Sadly, the answer is no....

PS Plus subscribers usually benefit from two free games per month - for example, the games for June 2020 were Call of Duty: WW2 and Star Wars Battlefront 2. However, this month is different, because the subscription service is celebrating its 10th anniversary since its launch on June 29, 2010 - as a result, players will be able to redeem three specific games in July, completely free of charge. PlayStation announced the anniversary in a tweet, before revealing July’s game shortly afterwards....

The latest PS4 firmware update went live this morning all over the world. Update 7.51, clocking in at 471MB, sadly doesn’t bring any exciting new features. Once again, all Sony has to offer in the way of patch notes is the same “this system update improves system performance” sentence you should be used to by now. The new update comes a little over a month after the release of firmware 7....

For a while I thought this console generation would be different. Sony seemed to be floundering a little, barely saying anything about the PS5 while Microsoft pushed forward the narrative of the Xbox Series X being the most powerful console, Game Pass grew and grew, and huge acquisitions were made. Yet, even after snapping up Skyrim and Fallout dev/publisher Bethesda, now it’s hard to see how PlayStation won’t continue to lead by quite a margin - at least in powerful console space....

A PlayStation 5 custom faceplate seller is back once again after being threatened with legal action by Sony. As reported by VGC, the company – now known as CMP Shells – relaunched on Monday, January 18. The firm is still selling black shells for the PlayStation 5, which cost $49.99 and will apparently arrive with customers at the end of February. On its product page for the PS5 shells, CMP addresses the fact that it was threatened with legal action before....

To be entirely honest, I don’t remember much of Double Fine’s iconic 2005 release, Psychonauts. I marathoned what I did play one night in college, and the details are fuzzy at best. But Psychonauts 2’s player onboarding is stellar, providing all the info you need to understand anything you may have missed or forgotten about the original, without delving too far into exposition. This is a sequel in the truest sense of the word, taking place directly after the VR game Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin....

PUBG’s patch 10.1 is now live on PC’s test servers, with the full launch coming this time next week. There’s a new map to play on, which I didn’t expect so soon after Season 9’s Paramo. Nevertheless, Haven is a new 1x1Km map, available only for the duration of Season 10 - which kicks off with the patch’s launch next week. Haven is a heavily-urban map that supports up to 32 players....

Rainbow Six Extraction and Rider’s Republic have both been delayed by Ubisoft. Planned for a September 16 release, the next Rainbow Six will instead be released in January 2022. “Our ambition with Rainbow Six Extraction is to deliver a full-fledged AAA experience that changes the way you play and think about cooperative games,” said Ubisoft in a statement. “With unique features like Missing In Action or The Sprawl, every mission is set to be a tense and challenging experience in which you’ll lead the elite operators of Rainbow Six in a fight against a lethal and evolving alien threat....

Rainbow Six Siege players can now jump into Operation Steel Wave on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. The new season introduces the new operators Ace and Melusi, a new Attacker and Defender from Norway and South Africa. Operation Steel Wave also introduces a new Defender secondary gadget, the Proximity Alarm. In addition to the new operators and gadget, you can expect an entirely reworked House map. House players will find the location has been expanded with a two-story addition with new objectives and entry points....

The latest update has arrived in Microsoft Flight Simulator, and it brings snow to the simulation title. You can see the new real-time weather shown off in a short video. Most recently, VR support was added to the game, allowing you to use a variety of VR hardware, including Windows Mixed Reality headsets, as well as headsets from Oculus, Valve, and HTC. Microsoft Flight Simulator launched for PC in August of last year....

These folks inclue The Witcher design director Daniel Sadowski, Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 narrative director Jakub Szamalek, Witcher series art director Bartlomiej Gawel, CFO Michal Boyrka, studio head Robert Muzynowski, and Witcher 3, Shadow Warrior 2 animation director Tamara Zawada. The team is currently working on a new AAA, story-driven RPG saga for PCs and next-gen consoles. According to Tomaszkiewicz, the team wants to “recreate the feeling of a pen and paper RPG session,” where options seem limitless, the world reacts to your choices, and where “every decision matters....

Our review of Resident Evil 3 Remake suggests it doesn’t reach the heights of last year’s Resident Evil 2 Remake, which was, frankly, one of the best games of this generation. That’s not a criticism of this latest release from Capcom though. It’s a publisher easily at the top of the game when it comes to remastering and showing love to its older games, adding whole new sections that weren’t in the originals, rejigging some of the modes and of course upping the graphical fidelity and remodelling characters with great attention to detail....
