In July 2019, Jo-Mei Games and EA partnered to release Sea of Solitude, an indie game that tackled anxiety and other mental health issues. It was an engaging title that was spearheaded by Jo-Mei Games’ CEO, Writer, and Creative and Art Director Cornelia Geppert. I met her in person at E3 2019, and you could

As 2019 comes to a close, DualShockers and our staff are reflecting on this year’s batch of games and what were their personal highlights within the last year. Unlike the official Game of the Year 2019 awards for DualShockers, there are little-to-no-rules on our individual Top 10 posts. For instance, any game — not just
EA and Respawn announced today that the publisher and developer team will soon be spinning up the Apex Legends Global Series. This series of both online and live events will allow PC players to compete for more than $3 million. The first event will launch in early 2020. We're excited to announce the Apex Legends
As the festive cheer draws on near, Apex Legends has had numerous Christmassy-themed updates arrive in the title. During The Game Awards that took place last week on December 12, Mirage took to the stage with Geoff Keighley dressed as a charming nutcracker (Mirage said he’s a captain but whatever) where he announced his Holo-Day
For those still exploring a galaxy far, far away in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, developer Respawn Entertainment has recently added a much-requested feature to the game. As part of a new patch for Fallen Order that rolled out today across all platforms, the game has now received a photo mode. When in-game, this mode can be
Respawn Entertainment released Apex Legends earlier this year, quickly finding the game becoming a hit with Battle Royale fans. In fact, before 3 days had passed since launch, the game had attracted over 10 million players. Later on, it cleared 25 million players with over 2 million at its concurrent peak. Later in the year
It has been almost two years since the more than controversial release of Star Wars Battlefront II. Since then, EA and developer DICE have tried to make up for their mistakes to players in the past with free updates and are seemingly doing that again with the game’s upcoming Celebration Edition. On December 5 Battlefront II will
It’s the Wednesday before the new month and that means it’s time to learn what games will be available for free for PS Plus subscribers. This month is a bit of a disappointment if you were looking for two really amazing games, but one title is fantastic, so it absolutely makes up for it, in
Since launching their first Battle Pass, the team at Respawn Entertainment has been trying almost everything they can think of to improve the progression system in Apex Legends. They’ve done a lot of work with the various Battle Passes they’ve put out, but the main progression hasn’t gotten the same love. That changes on December
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order has been out for a few weeks now and according to publisher Electronic Arts, the game has had a fairly strong start. EA announced today that within its launch window, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order has become the best-selling Star Wars game to date when it comes to digital sales. Furthermore,
If you watched the most recent trailer from XO19, then you know that the protagonist of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Cal Kestis, eventually wields a double-bladed lightsaber. This lightsaber upgrade is one of the biggest changes in the moment-to-moment gameplay of Fallen Order, aside from making you look like a badass. If you stick
In a report from Gamesindustry.biz, former Bioware general manager Aaryn Flynn opens up about the difficulties of working with EA’s Frostbite engine. “It was getting harder and harder to make the people that content wanted,” says Flynn at Reboot Develop Red in Banff, Canada. “It was harder and harder to move that content through these
This generation has not been too kind to the Need for Speed franchise. While its debut to the Xbox One and PS4 was strong with Need for Speed: Rivals, the entries that proceeded it garnered mixed or downright negative reviews. While our own review of the latest entry wasn’t the most positive, it seems the
I have a firm belief that lightsaber battles should not be fast and flashy. Jedi Knights are not all-powerful invincible superheroes, and fights are more fun to watch and experience when every move has a purpose, weight, and strategic value. I can only imagine that wielding such a weapon would be hard. And boy, is
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is the newest action-adventure game from publisher EA and developer Respawn Entertainment (Titanfall, Apex Legends). As one of the very few who escaped the Emperor’s diabolical “Order 66,” Cal Kestis (played Cameron Monaghan of Shameless and Gotham) is one of the last known remaining Jedi. As such, he wields a
Despite outcries from some in the community to boycott the latest Pokemon entries, it seems as though Sword and Shield have gotten off to one of the strongest starts from a sales perspective in the history of the franchise. In its first week of availability, Pokemon Sword and Shield lapped the competition on the UK sales chart. Pokemon Sword
The Need for Speed franchise has had its share of great titles over the years. The original Hot Pursuit was an incredible showcase for the PS1. Most Wanted brought cop chases back to the franchise in a fun open world. And Underground 2 remains one of my personal favorite racing games of all time. Unfortunately,
It seems that rumors of Anthem’s death have been greatly exaggerated. In a new report from Kotaku, it is said that BioWare and EA are internally planning an overhaul or soft-reboot of sorts for the third-person loot shooter, Anthem. After releasing earlier this year in February to a litany of issues, BioWare reaffirmed that it would continue working
Despite ongoing work on Anthem and the active development of Dragon Age 4, it seems as though BioWare is also beginning the first stages of work on a new entry in the Mass Effect series as well. The news comes by way of Kotaku, who stated that work on what would be the fifth installment in the Mass Effect series has entered
With the fresh launch of Respawn Entertainment’s Jedi: Fallen Order, not only did Imperial Stormtrooper’s show up at last night’s X019 event, but they’ve also arrived in Fortnite for a limited time. Let’s just hope their aim isn’t as bad as the films make out. Epic Games has announced that the Imperial Stormtrooper character skin is now available
If you didn’t already know, there’s a new Star Wars game releasing tomorrow that some folks may or may not be excited about. Up until now, reviews for Respawn’s Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order haven’t dropped at any outlet, but that will be changing tonight. The review embargo for the game lifts later tonight at
Respawn Entertainment’s take on Battle Royale with Apex Legends has done rather well in terms of popularity, especially as more updates and content additions have found their way to the game since launching earlier this year. However, a new update for the game appears to have introduced a new bug that allows players to take damage before
Last week we saw the launch trailer for the upcoming Need for Speed: Heat which was filled with cars, a tunnel, the police, and vroom noises. On November 1, PlayStation Underground showed off Ghost Games’ third Need for Speed title with gameplay showing the game in both day and night settings. The video kicks off with a
It has been almost a year since Dragon Age 4 was formally announced at The Game Awards 2018. Over that span of time, BioWare hasn’t revealed anything worthwhile about the highly-anticipated game in the franchise, but it seems like that could be changing next month. Yesterday marked the 10th anniversary of Dragon Age: Origins, the first game
In light of the success of Apex Legends this year, which has now surpassed 70 million players, some have started to question whether or not EA and Respawn would continue to make another proper Titanfall game or if Apex would simply be the main title in this universe moving forward. According to EA, while there is nothing
Following the release of Anthem earlier this year from BioWare, the studio’s next game will likely be that of Dragon Age 4. While BioWare may have formally revealed the title last year at The Game Awards 2018 though, it sounds like we shouldn’t expect to get our hands on it any time soon. During EA’s recent financial
Back in August, Respawn ran a very popular, limited-time Solo mode for their exceptional battle royale game Apex Legends. With the mode’s two-week run being so well-received, it’s no surprise that the team is trying their hand at another in-demand mode. Next week, Apex is adding Duos to the mix for another limited-time run. Check
EA’s financial results and prepared remarks regarding Q2 of the fiscal year have given us a fairly solid idea of what we can expect from them going forward. The publisher is doubling down on its successful sports titles and live services, though more remasters and even some new IP are also planned. In those prepared
Yesterday, during EA’s prepared remarks for investors following the company’s release of its quarterly financial results, we learned quite a bit about what we can expect from their lineup next year. In forward-looking statements for the Fiscal Year 2021, which begins on April 1, 2020, EA promised to not only release new IP, but more
Today’s news out of EA Sports is both disappointing and completely expected. The studio canceled NBA Live 20, marking the fourth time this has happened in the last decade. As reported by Polygon, EA chief executive Andrew Wilson told investors that the team was going to move development to next-gen consoles and forgo a 2019
