A New Overwatch 'Project' is in the Works

Tonight the new Overwatch Halloween event drops but last night a position was listed on job websites at Blizzard for an artist intern. The interesting part about this is that they are looking for some one "knowledge and understanding" of the Overwatch universe. 

Speculation has begun that Blizzard are working on a new Overwatch experience. Some believe that a mobile game will be on its way while others have said that a whole new spin off game is being developed. Another popular theory is that this job is creating a campaign mode for Overwatch.

Either way the job is only temporary (hence why they are employing interns) and will take place in the summer of 2018. Until then you can check out the Halloween Terror event running through until the 1st of November.

Celebrating One Year of CPGN

186 articles to date
25 games reviewed
1 interview
1 CPGN awards
14 GFMSL articles
34 weekly roundups

It's no secret we haven't been posting articles in the past few months but this is about to change. This article will go through what's to come and will clear up some confusion you may have about social media accounts etc.

Reviews
Since our first review of Unexplored I have been getting an endless stream of keys being given for review purposes. This means it's hard to keep on top of all the reviews. From now to Christmas most of my efforts will be focused on writing reviews however I will release them over time. Below is the list of games that I still have to review:

This list is quite big as you can see but I would like to stress that these reviews will take time to make and I will be producing normal news in between these reviews.

Social Media Accounts
Over the past few months we've been trying to drop out of Triple Monitor Gaming but joint accounts made it difficult. As a result I've made a new Twitter account and a Discord server is on the way.

Quality of Content
There's no doubt that the quality of my articles have increased since I first started however this doesn't mean they're perfect. Every year this blog will improve, and you'll be part of it.

The Original Star Wars Battlefront 2 now has Multiplayer Again

Disney made a surprising move this Monday by updating the classic Star Wars Battlefront 2 to enable multiplayer once more. 

The game is now registered on Steam under the name Star Wars Battlefront 2 (Classic, 2005) in an effort for the game not to be mixed with the soon to be launched Star Wars Battlefront 2. 

Along with a name change was an update that reinstates multiplayer, a feature that's been missing from Battlefront 2 for quite a while now. The announcement came in the form of a Steam discussion post that reads:

Star Wars fans rejoice! Multiplayer support has returned for Battlefront II. Now you can draft your friends to the 501st legion and join up to 64 other players in a heated online battle for control of the galaxy.

The post has over 6,000 up votes and near 4,000 comments.

Some if not most people have been having trouble with getting the multiplayer. Constant time outs and connection errors are ruining players experiences.

It's unclear whether Disney will continue to update the original Battlefront 2 however if you want to experience a taste of the new sequel you can play the open beta until the 9th here.

Fortnite is getting a Battle Royale Mode and its Attracting Attention

This week PUBG creators Bluehole Studios have criticised Epic Games of 'copying' Player Unknown Battle Grounds.

Fortnite is a co-op sandbox survival game but next it will be getting a battle roayle mode available to everyone for free. This game mode is very similar to PUBG and even has you get dropped from the sky into the map

Bluehole's VP Chang Han Kim published this statement: "After listening to the growing feedback from our community and reviewing Fornite Battle Royale's gameplay for ourselves, we are concerned that Fortnite may be replicating the experience for which PUBG is known."

This statement raises the question whether Bluehole Studios will take legal action but EPIC have not responded to the situation.

Gearbox CEO Says Borderlands 3 is not Something that can be "Just Cooked up Overnight"

Borderlands 3 is no secret at this point but Randy Pitchford, CEO of Gearbox came out this week about the status of development.

Randy Pitchford spoke with IGN about if Borderlands 3 was coming he said that he "the easiest thing in the world would be for us to churn out a lot of Pre-Sequels". 

Fans have started speculating that Borderlands 3 will release coincide the new claptrap toy designed by Todd McFarlane. If this is true then Borderlands 3 will be set for a spring 2018 release which is already mentioned in the 2K financial report.

Steam Blocked by Malaysian Government

The government has blocked Steam after a game was released letting you fight Jesus.

The game, Fight of Gods was deemed 'offensive' and in result the Salleh Said keruak (Malaysia's communications and media minister) requested for the game to be removed in a day or "further actions would be taken"

The game was not taken down and therefore Steam was blocked in Malaysia. On September 8th Steam removed Fight of Gods from the country's Steam store and it was unblocked.

The publishers of Fight of Gods came out and said they were not contacted by any officials to remove it beforehand.

GFMSL #14

The developers gave me a copy of Loot Hero DX to write this article.


Loot Hero DX is a game made by VaragtP, the same minds who brought you Tap Heroes, Cooking Witch and Plantera. The game revolves around a knight who plows (literally) through enemies to save miners who then work for him by mining.

The gameplay itself is pretty dry and just makes you run through enemies in the form of levels. You can stop by upgrade stations (seven in each level). At the end there is a boss but every ten levels a dragon appears. If you defeat the dragon you rescue a miner who then works for you at your mine. 



The mine can be used to collect gold which can then be used to buy upgrades like speed or damage.

Loot Hero DX is repetitive at best and feels like a game that was purely made for farming achievements. For this I couldn't recommend it.

I would just like to point out that the devs (varagtP) have made other games like Plantera and Tap Heroes which are great games I highly recommend checking out.
