Everyone has a fighting chance
Z1 Battle Royale, the game formerly known as H1Z1 Battle Royale, has been updated with a massive patch that features tons of new content, marks the start of the first new season since late 2018 and “represents the first big delivery on the promise that the new NantG team would bring back the game that so many of you fell in love with in the classic “King of the Kill” era around Preseason 3″.
SamuTale has received a large new update to bring the Livestock System into the game alongside technical improvements and updates to craftable items. Players will be able to catch, tame, feed and breed chickens. “All you need is a male, a female and a chicken coop which you can build.” Sounds easy enough.

Pearl Abyss has announced that it is working on “an adorable family MMORPG that everyone can enjoy together” called Project V. The announcement was made on the company’s Facebook page (thanks, anonymous tipster!) and it features a piece of concept art showing a large stylized city and characters. According to MMO-Culture, the company is using a new game engine rather than the Black Desert engine due to its age. The new one allows development into the future with improved quality.
CCP Games is looking to push the envelope of its server technology with a new partnership announcement with Hadean. The pair are working on EVE: Aether Wars, a tech demo that will be shown at GDC and will feature up to 10,000 players in battle using Hadean’s simulation engine. Hadean has been instrumental with its Aether engine by allowing “developers to seamlessly scale their applications at increased speed and ease across the cloud.” Ultimately, EVE & Valkyrie players could fly together.
According to Reddit user YeetLordSupreme, Anthem’s starter rifle seems to be the best in the game damage-wise. After conducting a number of experiments with weapons up to and including a max-level Masterwork firearm, it was determined that weapon damage and enemy health scale based on the weapon being used by players. UPDATE: Bioware has responded and said that the bug is being nerfed, as predicted!
MapleStory players are being invited to the game to check out the new Retro World 8-bit event that is part of the Arcade Adventures update. From today through April 9th, characters at level 61+ can take part in a number of events “that take them to unique 8-bit pixelated worlds where they can hunt monsters, collect coins, practice their dodging and jumping, avoid traps and more”.
One of the big features coming in World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth v8.1.5 is the revamped Brawler’s Guild that has not been in the game since the expansion’s launch. In a new post on the WoW site, devs provide a preview of the new bosses, the murder mystery questline and the new rewards that brawlers can earn by rising through the ranks.
It’s official! The first Anarchy Online progression server is now live. Called Rubi-Ka 2019 (or simply RK2019), the server was switched on today. The handy FAQ provides a few nuggets of information including the fact that RK2019 is Funcom’s “unique take on a fresh-start experience. Subscribers are invited to start anew with a pure experience – no expansions, lower level caps, and an untouched economy to begin!”
For those who were playing Wizard101 at the time, 2015 was a pretty cool year. Jewel socketing made its introduction, sought-after gear could be found in ultra dungeons, and the players welcomed the beginning of the third arc with open arms. However, the beginning of frequent in-game contests/tournaments is something that, in my opinion, disappeared all too quickly.
