The 5 Best Multiplayer Games of 2017

AMC has been very involved from the very beginning. They have had a lot of experience working with gaming companies, so have been great at reviewing our design documents, character models and ideas, helping us to refine our gameplay ideas to match the integrity of the show. It’s been a surprisingly fast turn-around from first conversation to launch and we’re very happy with the way they’ve embraced the proj

As with all games, this downward trend in player count likely has a considerable amount to do with the game’s age. Few titles can boast the continued popularity of software like CS:GO or Team Fortress 2 , and, according to Steam Charts , this update did virtually nothing to draw players back to the game. While its status as a willing victim of player mal-intent couldn’t have helped, it’s likely that PUBG is succumbing to simple entr

Now, however, multiplayer has evolved into something that even those who have never picked up a controller have a better understanding of. Games like PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds have captured the imagination of the world and fused victorious phrases like "winner winner, chicken dinner" into popular culture's colloquiali

Beginning October 1st and running into early 2020, players of the mobile version of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds will have a chance to traverse the battlefield as familiar heroes from The Walking Dead , or a certain iconic villain. Limited edition in-game items such as character skins, weapons and a vehicle are among the new TWD content coming to the game a w

Given the many titles that could have been compelling additions to our Best Multiplayer Games of 2017 list, it should come as no surprise that we believe this may have been the best year in multiplayer gaming since the release of Halo: Combat Evolved . Did we miss any that you would've placed here? Any games you think might surpass the ones on this list in 2018? Let us know in the comments be

August was a hot month for game bans in Australia. First up was zombie survival Day-Z which was refused classification on the grounds of "morality" which is speculated to be due to the presence of we

After deciding he wanted a change he jumped into the game, which he had presented a Best Multiplayer Game award to just days earlier at The Game Awards. After logging in he discovered the ban, forcing a switch to Dead By Dayli

Often gaming bans are justified. We can get behind the bans for smurfing , piggy-backing and outright cheating . However, some of these gaming sanctions are downright crazy. From punishments related to political views to banning entire games in a country, here are 5 of the most bogus game bans we've s

The most baffling part is that the game had previously been classified for release, just with a different publisher, (although it appears these records have since been removed) The whole situation has left even the countries politicians confu

It all started when Chung "Blitzchung" Ng Wai had his competition winnings stripped and was slapped with a one year ban from competitive play after making a political statement about Hong Kong. The two casters who were interviewing him also faced harsh punishments, despite not making political statements themsel

2017 truly was the year of the multiplayer game. With 2018 just a few days out, which titles best captured the feeling of forward momentum that the genre will hope to carry into a new calendar year? Game Rant has compiled a list of the games we feel are the best examples of just how incredible multiplayer games became in 2

What's also a letdown is PUBG's development focus that has seen a slow rollout of content and essential fixes, consistently poor optimization, and an aggressive focus on unwelcome microtransactions for cosmetics, and worse, loot boxes. When combined with a terrible reward rate of in-game currency, PUBG's gameplay loop is simply a turn

There's fun to be had as a social experience, and PUBG is certainly better than the sum of its many subpar parts, but the resources earned through the record-breaking success of PUBG have not translated into a game that holds up in the current climate of high-end shooters, and we can only hope that if major updates (or a sequel of sorts) are on the way, that PUBG's success supports a triple-A experience instead of a frustrating one that looks and feels dated. But given where we're at now, https://www.pubgmcentral.xyz/ after nearly two years since its first release, and the fact that PUBG Corporation released the game in this state on PS4, there's little h

If you wish to try the R45 before PUBG's official launch, you can do so on the game's Test Server, which helps the developers stress test and fine-tune new features ahead of their release. When the next major Test Server update launches, sometime after December 7th, the new desert map and the R45 will be included, along with vaulting, other tweaks, and new vehicles. For further info and details, stay tuned to PUBG's official Twitter acco
