Borderlands 3 “Rare Spawn Hunt” Starts Tomorrow, Here’s How It Works

/0 Comments/in /by

The anniversary celebration in Borderlands 3 is continuing this week, and the new theme is the Rare Spawn Hunt. From October 8-15, you’ll have a much easier time finding rare spawns, and you’ll get a better chance of scoring unqiue Legendary weapons and loot from taking them down.

You may have seen rare spawns around the universe in Borderlands, but they appear sporadically. During the event week, they’ll be guaranteed to appear in their designated locations, and their chance of dropping Legendary loot is increased. That gives you a much better chance to score some rare drops, and in the announcement Gearbox also provided the names and loot drops for each. You can find that listing below.

There will be a quick “micropatch” to usher in the Rare Spawn Hunt, and Gearbox recommends verifying that you’re online in the main menu and then giving it a few moments before starting up your game. The event will last from October 8 at 9 AM PT to October 15 at 8:59 AM PT.

The remaining three weeks in the anniversary celebration are called Show Me The Eridium, Mayhem on Twitch, and Spooky Surprise. The last week would appear to be the introduction of the free Bloody Harvest DLC, but there may be other Halloween themed events coming as well.

Cyberpunk 2077 Photo Mode Possibly Teased In Tweet

/0 Comments/in /by

The official Twitter account for Cyberpunk 2077 may have just teased a photo mode for CD Projekt Red’s upcoming open world action RPG. Photo modes have become increasingly popular in the last couple of years, so it’s not a surprise to see the feature will most likely make its way into Cyberpunk 2077 and the gritty, colorful world of Night City. (The Cyberpunk 2077 team even confirmed their plans to include a photo mode in a tweet last year.)

Cyberpunk 2077 will be at PAX Australia later this week, showing off live, 45-minute presentations to the public, including one day at GameSpot’s very own theater. Don’t forget to check the schedule for Cyberpunk 2077’s PAX presentations if you’re going to be there.

We finally got a release date for Cyberpunk 2077 at E3 this year. It’ll be coming out on PC, PS4, and Xbox One on April 16, 2020. For more of the biggest upcoming games, check out our roundup of the biggest game release dates of 2020.

Pokemon Sword & Shield Seemingly Reveal Galarian Ponyta

/0 Comments/in /by

Pokemon Sword and Shield‘s animal cam-style 24-hour livestream turned out to be largely uneventful, but it did give us our first glimpse at another new Gen 8 Pokemon. A mysterious monster was teased throughout the entire broadcast, but only toward the end did we get a clear look at the new Pokemon, and it appears to be a Galarian form of Ponyta.

As you can see in the images below, the new Pokemon bears a strong resemblance to Ponyta. However, its mane appears to be made out of purple clouds rather than fire, and it has a small horn atop its head much like a unicorn, which seems to suggest it’s a Fairy-type.

While The Pokemon Company has yet to outright confirm the new Pokemon is indeed a Galar-exclusive variant of Ponyta, Ponyta’s cry could be heard during the stream, lending credence to the theory. After the stream ended, Sonia, Professor Magnolia’s assistant and granddaughter, said she’ll “collect everyone’s reports and create a summary for [her] gran soon,” so we’ll likely get official confirmation sometime this week.

A handful of other old Pokemon are also receiving new Galarian forms in Sword and Shield. Earlier this summer, we got a look at Galarian Zigzagoon and Weezing. A couple of monsters will also have new Galar-exclusive evolutions. Galarian Linoone will be able to evolve into a new Pokemon called Obstagoon, while Farfetch’d is getting a new evolution called Sirfetch’d.

Pokemon Sword and Shield launch on November 15. Until then, you can see all the new Gen 8 Pokemon revealed so far in our gallery. If you’re interested in picking up a copy of the games, check out our Pokemon Sword and Shield pre-order guide.
