GTA Online accounts and characters are being completely wiped on PS4, Xbox One, and PC by Rockstar Games. A money glitch often called the apartment glitch has been making its rounds.
Players can get huge amounts of money very quickly. Like every other glitch like this in the past, many players participated in it, and the money from those players’ accounts are being wiped, or in some cases, their entire characters are being wiped.
Rockstar Games reporter and insider Tez2 notes that the players who used the glitch are being notified that their GTA online accounts have been wiped clean to varying degrees all depending on how often they used the glitch. Some players have only had all their money wiped from their accounts while others have lost their entire character and progress.
It appears to be a complete character wipe, all progress, money and everything.#GTAOnline
This punishment may seem extreme but it is not new. Rockstar Games has been dealing with GTA online players that exploit glitches like this since the beginning. So players who participated in using the glitch would have been well aware of the consequences.
Some players who have used the glitch have not been dealt with yet, but it’s just a matter of time. Rockstar Games usually handles account wipes in waves. So if you are not part of this wave, it likely means you will be hit in the next wave.
We’re not sure why, but a crossover between Bridge Constructor and The Walking Dead was announced recently on Gamescom 2020. During the live stream, Headup Games released a live-action trailer for this upcoming game, which you can watch below:
To provide more context, Bridge Constructor is a physics-based puzzle game where you have to plan out and create a bridge across a river or ravine using limited parts. The goal of the game is to ensure that the vehicles will be able to cross successfully.
On the other hand, The Walking Dead is a famous comic book, TV show, and adventure game series where you have to survive the zombie apocalypse. At this point, you might wonder how these two games fit. We’re not quite sure yet either, especially since the trailer is only a live-action one and doesn’t show any gameplay.
Join a group of survivors as they fight against hordes of undead walkers and a hostile human community. Build bridges and other constructions through bleak landscapes and ruined structures.
Team up with fan-favorite characters like Daryl, Michonne and Eugene, and create safe passage for iconic vehicles from the series.
Use movable level objects, explosives and baits to your advantage as you lure walkers into lethal traps and guide your survivors to safety.
Enjoy the physics-based frenzy and ragdoll animations as walkers succumb to the forces of gravity.
If I were to make assumptions about the game, I’d think that you need to create bridges for the Walking Dead characters to cross on, ensuring that they don’t get eaten by the zombies.
Are you ready for the “ultimate mashup experience”? We’re definitely intrigued! Bridge Constructor: The Walking Dead will be available on Steam sometime within the year.
Since its release, The Sims 4 has issued multiple expansion packs that have made your Sims experience even better. Now, The Sims 4 will have a new sci-fi crossover that should have taken place years ago – Star Wars: Journey to Batuu.
For all you Star Wars lovers out there, this new DLC is filled to the brim with Star Wars content for you and your Sims character to enjoy. What makes this expansion pack even better is the fact that it’s story-driven, and you’ll learn more about the “tension between factions” on the planet of Batuu.
As soon as you land on Batuu, your surroundings and everything in it will remind you of the world-renowned Star Wars. As you go around the area, you might even stumble upon the familiar Millennium Falcon. Your Sims will deal with stormtroopers, aliens, blaster battles, and more, fulfilling your childhood Star Wars dreams.
Your Sims will go around doing various missions, collecting rewards and earning points in the process. You will also be given the option to choose between factions, whether you support the Resistance or the First Order.
The growth of your reputation, depending on your faction, will affect the way the locals will react to your Sims character. For example, if your Sims is an important member of the First Order, then it would be difficult for them to interact with characters who are part of the Resistance and vice versa.
Another thing that makes this expansion so exciting is the fact that you can find parts for your very own lightsaber. You can find and try out different crystals for your lightsaber until you find the right one. If you’re lonely in Batuu, you can purchase your very own Droid. After you customize this to your liking, your new Droid buddy will follow you everywhere you go – they’ll even assist you on missions!
When you do decide to go back home and leave Batuu, your inventory will be full of Star Wars-inspired items and decorations. Don’t worry about the Droid you purchased, as you will be able to bring it with you back to your own planet.
The Sims 4 Star Wars: Journey to Batuu DLC will be available for purchase on September 8, 2020, on platforms such as Steam, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.
As we all know, Dragon Age 4 is still under development, but developer BioWare gave us a sneak peek recently during the Gamescom Opening Night Live. What we find interesting about this game is how it follows a different direction from the last game story-wise, as it focuses more on those characters “who don’t have power.”
We were able to glimpse a few in-game footage in the teaser trailer they released. We could see new and magical areas as well as a new city. You can watch the teaser below:
The teaser isn’t all concept art, though – we were able to glean that an all-too-familiar character from Dragon Age: Inquisition, Solas, who played a huge role in the said game will make a comeback. We were also given a peek at some of the game’s main characters, Davrin and Bellara.
One other thing we could infer is that Dragon Age 4 will heavily deal with the game world’s politics, as those with authority aren’t willing to deal with the masses’ troubles.
BioWare also said that the choices you make as a player also play a big part in the game. You can also expect new areas in Dragon Age 4 that you haven’t been to yet. That being said, keep in mind that this isn’t the official name of the game yet. In fact, the developers simply refer to it as “the next Dragon Age.”
There isn’t a lot of details yet, since it’s still undergoing development, but it’s highly likely that the game will be available on the next-gen consoles.
The latest update of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive has made changes to its two newest maps Swamp and Mutiny, and has also fixed several bugs on Cache.
Swamp
The improvements to Swamp see the developers focusing on improving performance and overall gameplay flow. Swamp was the focus of the update, with a brand new radar texture and an additional path that players can use to quickly move from the middle area to its raised center bridge area.
Headshot angles that made it difficult to see players behind the map’s many boats also saw changes. Raising the terrain under the boats in question has the players’ heads easily seen from the map’s green backgrounds.
Swamp also had some bug fixes. Since the maps debut, splash sprites would occasionally not display when a player walked through the wet and swampy parts. After the update, they display correctly.
The developers also lowered the sound of its background noise substantially. At its previous volume, the croaking frogs and various the background sounds that were loud enough to cover the enemy’s footsteps and CSGO’s distinctive grenade sounds.
This change has the largest impact on how the map is played. With sound effects like pulling the pin from a grenade now clearly audible, players should be caught off guard less often.
Mutiny
Mutiny was released with Swamp in the July update, and it also saw several changes. The developers have made adjustments focusing particularly on the map’s readability. The color scheme and lighting of Mutiny made enemy players with Agent skins hard to make out against the vibrant backgrounds. To fix this, the lighting was slightly altered to help players make out friend from foe.
Vines and foliage were also removed from the wall on A site. Characters now stand out clearly against the wall instead of blending in and the angle and height of the wall were changed to make engaging enemies around it easier.
The largest change was shifting T spawn further away from the bombsites. Before this, engagements between players happened faster. This often put the CT side at a disadvantage because they had less time to set up site defenses compared to other maps.
With the new position of T spawn, CTs have some precious extra moments before a site takeover happens. There is also some newly added cover to some areas and some removed, mixing up the established positions.
The update also included a reduction to the damage done through wall bangs at B door and bomb respawn spots for ones that find their way outside the map. A’s rock formation also saw changes that allow more grenade options.
Cache
Now for the changes done to Cache. The list of tweaks for the popular map is small, it includes fixes for two game-breaking bugs players experienced on the map. The first finally fixed player models appearing through textures when standing in the dark in a Molotov.
Players could sometimes be seen through walls because of the interaction between shadows and Molotov flames, especially in the cubby under T boost. Now the Molotov should function as intended and not as a wallhack.
The second fix targets an issue where players could get stuck in A site’s door, unable to move or interact to free themselves. This is a bug dating back to the Counter-Strike’s early days, made famous by this video. Headphone users, it is loud.
Cache’s navigation mesh(used by bots to move around the map) was also updated along with the soundscapes being re-enabled after being turned off for an undisclosed reason.
Back in June, Hello Games released a trailer for their game The Last Campfire and we didn’t hear anything again about it again — until today, that is. Unsurprising, though, since Hello Games is always so full of surprises. The Last Campfire has officially been launched today for the Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, and Apple Arcade.
You play as Ember, an adorable creature who is simply trying to find its way home amidst the confusing yet beautiful world the game is set in. However, it’s worth noting that you shouldn’t expect the game to be developed the same way as No Man’s Sky. This is because only a few developers from Hello Games worked on The Last Campfire.
Travel deeper into the lands beyond the dark forest and overcome the adversities before you.
Discover beautiful wilderness filled with lost folk, strange creatures and mysterious ruins.
Find hope and carry it with you on your Journey to light The Last Campfire.
That being said, the game’s Steam page states that it will be released sometime in 2021. We don’t know the reason for this exclusivity, but for now, you can get the game on the Epic Games Store for $5.99.

Netflix has revealed that they are currently working on a new live-action Resident Evil TV series. The streaming giant revealed that the series will be produced by Constantin Films which is the same company that made the popular Resident Evil movies starring Milla Jovovich.
The new series will feature an original story set within two timelines of the Resident Evil universe. The first will feature Billie and Jade Wesker moving into New Raccoon City in their teenage years. Presumably, the kids are related to the game’s longtime antagonist Albert Wesker. As the story, progresses, the kids will find out that their father is hiding deep dark secrets.

The second timeline will jump 16 years in the future where the planet is already affected by the T-virus. This timeline will focus on Jade doing everything she can to survive a world invaded by zombies.
Supernatural co-executive producer and writer, Andrew Dabb, will be the executive producer, writer, and showrunner for the new Resident Evil TV series which will have a total of eight episodes for its first season. Bronwen Hughes, popularly known for his work in Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, and The Walking Dead, will reportedly direct the first two episodes of the series.
Even if the new Resident Evil TV series is being produced by the Constantin Films, it is still unsure if the story will crossover with the film franchise. Also, Netflix still hasn’t made any solid details about the series including its cast or release date.
