One of the core parts of Monster Hunter World (and every title in the franchise) is that it usually doesn’t matter how you take the monsters down so long as you do so. Even a slow takedown is a good one. But when the championship event for the title starts on July 28th, the rules are different, as groups of...
There’s no reason to explore the galaxy solo, thanks to today’s massive No Man’s Sky NEXT update. The “full multiplayer experience” has finally arrived in the game, two years after the game’s rocky 2016 launch, and the hype around this title is very real.
