Finish the fight.        While the original Division took some time to define its world and action-RPG mechanics after its launch, its sequel The Division 2 largely made good on the concept of an open-world looter-shooter. Over the course of its first year, The Division 2's post-launch campaign fleshed out its gameplay and narrative set within a post-collapse Washington D.C, where you faced off against growing enemy factions and amassed more loot. But now, players are in for a return trip to where it all started: New York City.        Set for release on March 3 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, Warlords of New York is the first major expansion for The Division 2. As a $30 standalone expansion that marks the beginning of Year 2 content, it focuses on a mission to retake the ruins of Manhattan from a cabal of rogue agents. Just before Ubisoft's livestream reveal, we spent some time with a new and improved Division 2 set in an eerie, yet still...

    Platinum Games has certainly been riding high for a while now, and will probably continue to do so. Why wouldn’t they? They’ve produced some of the previous decade’s most memorable action games despite only existing for a relatively short while compared to other developers of similar skill. After two much smaller companies merged to create Platinum Games in 2007, Sega put them on the map by publishing four of their games.  Madworld  on the Wii,  Infinite Space  on the DS, as well as the criminally underrated  Vanquish  for the same platforms. By the time those four games were out in the wild, Platinum Games would quickly become known for their over the top action, dazzling special effects, and extremely creative artistic designs.    This would lead them to create many other games over the last several years.  Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, Transformers: Devastation , and  Nier: Automata , most notably, were also gre...

Season 2 of Modern Warfare is about to begin with new maps and more. Another new Call of Duty game is on the way later this year, but in the meantime, a new season of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is about to kick off very soon. Season 2 of Activision's hit shooter begins on PS4, Xbox One, and PC tomorrow, February 11, and it'll bring a new Battle Pass, free maps, modes, and lots of other content over the next few weeks. First, two new multiplayer maps will be available for all players right from launch day: Rust and Atlas Superstore.

You can now harvest a new ore called Ancient Debris. Minecraft's latest update, the 1.16 "Nether Update," has arrived and with it comes a bevy of additions such as new locations and ores. It's a huge update and the patch notes are extensive, so there's a lot to dig into. First up is the inclusion of new crafting materials. The Nether Update introduces Ancient Debris, a "fancy new ore" that can be mined in the lower depths of the Nether. Once gathered, you can refine the material to create netherite scrap which, when combined with gold ingots, can be turned into netherite ingots. The new patch also adds new wood materials, soul soil (which burns a blue flame), additional blocks, and more.

Netherite can be found in each biome, fungi ...
