Dead by Daylight proved horror multiplayer games still had legs in 2016, and Friday the 13th: The Game kept the momentum going in 2017. Gun Media’s faithful preservation of the Friday the 13th horror aesthetic was met with near-universal praise, and while server issues and a choppy launch dulled the luster of Friday the 13th: The Game a little, it still made its way onto most gamers’ playlists at some po
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
First and most important is that it must be relevant to our global community. We listen to and work to understand what our gaming community likes and would find entertaining. We’re not signing up anything that comes our way, we’re being very selective about who we work with as viewed through the perspective of the game and our play
Fortnite is something of a unique presence on this list in the sense that it was never really supposed to take the form it has now become known for. The original intent behind the game was to create a co-op sandbox survival experience, and while that form of the game has still found success, it is the existence of Fortnite Battle Royale that sees the game included as a multiplayer standout from 2

That’s why it’s astounding how PUBG patch Notes has so many cheaters. The developers have refused to region-lock the game, so it’s had cheaters since the beginning, and the problem has only gotten worse with time. These cheaters make the game a lot less fun, and frustrated gamers tend to go to Fortni

2017 was a transcendent year for multiplayer video games. While the form has always had a place in the hearts of millions of different users, the past year felt like a coming out party for multiplayer on a global stage. While LAN parties have been gone for the better part of a decade now, the image of a group of gamers huddled around networked computer screens has nonetheless remained prevalent in association with the concept of multiplayer tit
The PUBG MOBILE dev team takes a careful look at the opportunity presented by the partnership to determine what they’d like to see reflected in the game. We felt it would be fun to create unique fashions based on Godzilla as well as including huge footprints and sightings of the giant monster in the water off the coast of Ehrangel. For The Walking Dead , it was obvious that we needed to bring in the four most iconic characters from the show and give them a new battleground in PUBG MOBILE.
