In the fast-paced world of Call of Duty: Warzone, where survival is the name of the game, new twists are always welcomed by players looking to test their mettle. Back in 2020, the original Call of Duty: Warzone introduced a limited-time mode that added a thrilling layer of vehicular combat to the Battle Royale experience […]

Quick Look: Spellbreak
By now, I think it’s pretty well known that I love a battle royale. Better still I love games that are cross-platform, and let you carry your progress with your account. Spellbreak is all of those things. Playing on Switch and on PC, my progress is carried between them, seamlessly. My magic-flinging battlemage can fly […]
Blackout – Alcatraz
I’ve been on a bit of a Call of Duty Black Ops 4 binge as of late. Namely, I quite enjoy a bit of Blackout (surprise!). There have been a couple of changes to the initial map, different vehicles, and a particularly fun hardcore mode that removes the heads-up display, the map, armour and vehicles. […]
1 year on – PUBG is still the king
It’s been 12 months as of December 12th since Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) was released on the Xbox one. In this time, it’s been a shoddy mess and it’s been fixed up and refined. The fixes and patches haven’t made it this 60fps wonder-shooter. In fact, it’s still a little ropey. Truth is though, there’s no […]
Realm Royale – Alpha Test
It’s no secret that I’m a sucker for a battle royale game. But it’s a market that quickly became saturated, and essentially dominated by only two games (up until recently when Black Ops 4 came out with their Blackout mode). One game that came out on PC a while ago, and tried to join in […]
Fortnite Battle Royale – 50 v 50 Mode
It’s fair to say that I’ve not given Fortnite Battle Royale as much attention as I did when it was first released. Mostly owing to the fact that I prefer the pace and realism of PUBG. That isn’t to say I don’t still love Fortnite, it just means that it hasn’t been on top of […]
Fortnite and PUBG – Enjoying both is easy
The Battle Royale genre has seen some massive growth in the past year. I’m not going to go on about the history of it (I’d get it wrong), but the biggest, more modern iterations are undoubtedly Fortnite: Battle Royale and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG). Simply put, both are games where you get dropped on to an […]
PUBG – what makes it so enjoyable?
It’s hard to not keep writing about PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, even though I have so much else to play and talk about, PUBG is always beckoning for just a couple more games. I can’t quite pinpoint the appeal, or why this holds so much more of my attention that Fortnite Battle Royale did, but it does. […]
Playing Battle Royale games the “right” way
Playing “Battle Royale” games is becoming something of a big deal in gaming as of late. With the release of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds on both PC and Xbox One, and the release Fortnite Battle Royale on PC, PS4 and Xbox One, people are all for going 1 v 99. The problem is, everyone seems to think […]
Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds – It’s here!
A few hours early, and my code for Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds was sent through to get stuck in on Xbox One. After weeks of waiting, reading and studying, I felt like I was quite prepared to dive in and go for it…….I was, kind of. By my 3rd round, I managed to get a 3rd place […]
