It seems easy to imagine, then, that a random lobby would quickly become full of individual players who have all chosen the same one or two characters, knowing that these characters provide unmatched tactical advantages. And, going up against a lobby full of Wraiths and Pathfinders doesn’t seem like a fun prospect for someone playing a character like a Caustic, given that both Wraith’s phase and Pathfinder’s grapple make it easy for them to get away from Caustic's Nox

Not every game at E3 will be featured during press events, as other developers will be hosting events and streams following the Nintendo Direct. It's possible that these games might also appear during other conferences, but they also have special streams that will take place from Tuesday, June 11 to Thursday, June

One major strength that Fortnite has going for it is the ability to build. Players are able to deconstruct the world around them and gather resources.

Players can use their structures to reach new heights, get into otherwise inaccessible areas, and quickly construct cover for themsel

A major advantage for Apex Legends is the weapons system. Both Fortnite and Apex Legends revolve around finding and picking up the best weapons on the map and using them to your advantage. Apex Legends takes this one step further by having you pick up attachments and customizations for your weapon balance update as w

Apex Legends has a much larger focus on teamwork, and pairs you with a squad before going into the game. This focus on teamwork means that the team strategy of Apex Legends definitely has the e

While following the example of games like Overwatch, Apex Legends throws that extra bit of strategy that can make a game more challenging. With Fortnite you are loaded in as a generic shooter, while Apex Legends provides you the opportunity to be a unique colorful character. While it may not seem like the largest difference, the different abilities completely change the way that the game is pla

A few months ago, additional backpack space would not have been a big deal, but the recent nerfs to shotgun ammunition capacity would have people eyeing this Legend carefully. The ability to find nearby loot is always going to be valuable as well, and Nomad would likely earn a spot in competitive squads quite eas

Blisk would be another creative addition to the game that emphasize maximum teamwork for maximum reward. This could even turn teammates who would otherwise go at it alone into willing partners who see the benefit in working together, or rather, the incentive of being a team pla

There are also the newly acquired studios that were purchased by Microsoft in 2018 to consider, which means that The Outer Worlds and Wasteland 3 are strong candidates to appear during the Microsoft conference as well. The Outer Worlds is a massive RPG set in a science fiction universe where the main character must explore a colony at the edge of the galaxy. Wasteland 3 is the next game in the Wasteland series, which combines a similar setting to the Fallout series with fast-paced tactical RPG batt
