Lego Bricktales is getting a mobile release at the end of this month
No matter what age you are, we can all agree Lego is one of the most fun toys there are, and this translates well into their games, especially with the humour that is injected into it, so it is excellent news indeed that Thunderful is bringing Lego Bricktales to mobile devices on April 27th. You play as a Lego person, go figure, who is off on an adventure to seek out inspiration to help your grandfather reinvigorate his rundown amusement park. Or in other words, the perfect set-up for a builder game and a nice excuse to galavant around the world and create as many wonderful things as you have the blocks for. As you travel you will meet a host of characters who will help you hone your skill…
Gear up and prepare for wacky warfare in Worms WMD: Mobilize
Team17 has announced the launch of Worms WMD: Mobilize for Android and iOS devices. A remaster of the 2016 entry, Worms WMD, it is time to load up on more weapons than you can carry, and engage in some amusing and destructive battles. When Worms WMD was first released in 2016, it marked a return to the gameplay style that made the series so famous. Bringing back the 2D action style and removing some of the experimental mechanics of previous entries, such as classes and water physics, it was a welcome return from the 3D escapades Team17 tried out. You don’t mess with the classics. Returning to Mobilize from the original is the inclusion of vehicles, such as the tank and mech, because…
NetEase Games has announced the launch of its new game Eggy Party
It is almost time to suit up and take on a variety of fun new courses in the upcoming party game Eggy Party. Releasing in the Philippines on the 21st for Android devices, the game will then roll out to more regions and platforms in the coming months. As the name suggests, Eggy Party is a casual party game where each player controls a cute, round little character, who then proceeds to take part in and be knocked around by a host of minigames. These include games like Downhill, where you need to avoid obstacles and reach the end of the run, and Duck Egg, where you must avoid a plethora of giant eggs that barrel toward you. Your little Eggy avatars can be customised with a large range of outf…
Tolkien fans rejoice as EA announces release date for The Lord of the Rings: Heroes of Middle-earth
EA and Capital Games have announced the launch date for their upcoming turn-based RPG The Lord of the Rings: Heroes of Middle-earth, dropping May 10th for Android and iOS. We also get a trailer full of interesting looks at the in-progress development. To kick off, the trailer opens with its warning that “not all images appear in-game”, so we can take all this with a pinch of salt as some of it will change. It also states that the game has loot boxes, or “random items” as they so sweetly try to camouflage it, so presumably you get characters from the good old gacha system, EA style. From the menu we can see a bit of what the game has in store; an arena which will p…
Lilith Games announces latest collaboration for AFK Arena
Lilith Games, developers of the popular Dislyte and Rise of Kingdoms, have announced the latest collaboration for this idle game AFK Arena. Teaming up with the hit anime series Re:Zero, players will be able to recruit two exclusive characters through normal summons and limited-time events. Re:Zero follows the story of Subaru Natsuki, a young man who is suddenly summoned to a fantasy world, and meets a cast of magical characters such as Emilia, a candidate in the world's next royal election. He also acquires the ability Return by Death, which allows him to go back in time when he perishes, retaining all his memories, which sounds like the most inconveniently useful skill to have. The crosso…
NEOWIZ kicks off pre-registration for upcoming sim Idoly Pride, which is based on the hit series
NEOWIZ has announced the beginning of their Google Play pre-registration event for idol management sim Idoly Pride. Android users can sign up now for the impending release, with the App Store version following soon after. If you have not heard of the series, don’t feel too bad, it is a relatively new property launched in 2020, and we all had a few other things going on that year. The story revolves around an idol company called Hoshimi Production, whose star idol, Mana Nagase, tragically passed away at the height of her popularity. A few years later, her younger sister, Kotono, joins the company and starts her new life with the other nine idols. In the Idoly Pride games, you are plac…
Two members of one of comics most iconic supervillian groups arrive this month in Marvel Contest of Champions
Arguably the most iconic villains of Spiderman's roster are the Sinister Six, and two of their members are heading to the Battlerealm in Marvel Contest of Champions. As usual, we are provided with a reveal trailer for these two fighters, and they look as dangerous as you would expect. Sandman and Shocker are arriving in Battlerealm with little fanfare or event. They do not arrive with a big story, instead simply stumbling into the contest, before deciding that they should meet up with the rest of the Sinister Six. As they start to explore, however, they run into some familiar faces, including one particular masked webhead. Whilst Sandman may not sound like the most intimidating foe, Will…
Runescape release the latest entry in the Fort Forinthry chronicle on April 10th
The newest instalment of the Fort Forinthry story will be landing in Runescape on April 10th. Unwelcome Guests will introduce new monsters, a powerful new skill to unlock, and the return of an old fan-favourite character as you investigate the threat of an undead hoard. Carrying on from the previous instalment, Murder on the Border, the titular Fort finds itself increasingly at threat by a giant mob of undead who are patrolling the perimeter. It is down to you and your new Slayer Master, The Raptor, to fight back the hoard and investigate where the danger stems from. Spoiler alert, it probably has something to do with Zemouregal, the new necromancer you will encounter. Unwelcome Guests wil…

Spring has come to Play Together and it is the season of Cherry Blossoms
Spring has arrived and disrupted all of our oven clocks but has also brought the spirit of the season to Haegins' social network game Play Together. The cherry blossoms are blooming and there is plenty to take part in on Kaia Island to celebrate the new season. As you wander around the island, you will notice charry blossom petals falling from the sky. In addition to looking pretty, these can also be collected with bug nets, and then you can take them to the Kaia Workshop and craft them into beautiful, and since they are petals probably flimsy, themed furniture until the event ends. To match your new furniture, make sure you complete the new themed events such as Build-A-Cherry Blossom Mis…
Blue Archive hosts its biannual sport festival and releases three new students
It is a special time for players of Blue Archive, as the biannual Kivotos Halo Festival has kicked off. Players will be able to reap the benefits of some log-in bonuses, take part in athletic events, and recruit three new students. The Kivotos Halo Festival is a major athletic event that is held biannually, one of those annoying vague words that in this case means every two years. This year, however, the event seems unlucky, as the story follows our students overcoming a series of accidents the day before the opening ceremony. There are three new students ready to take part in the Festival that you can recruit. Utaha (Cheer Squad) is a Mystic-type Striker hailing from the Millennium Scienc…
Black Desert Mobile unveils its latest playable class

Igneous is the master of the elements, and as such you w…
Rocket League Sideswipe kicks off Season 8 with a new mode and it's continued Rocket Pass progression
Rocket League Sideswipe is growing up and almost in double digits, as Season 8 has kicked off on May 22nd. You can take part in a new ranked mode, get your hands on some nice new cosmetic items, or continue your uninterrupted climb up the Rocket Pass ladder. Season 8 comes on a bit of a personal sombre note, as the reintroduction of 3v3 ranked was quite a lot of fun, however, all good things come to an end. For this new season, you can now take to the court and see who has the best handling with 2v2 Ranked Hoops. As you can probably guess, Hoops is the basketball version of Rocket League. There are two giant baskets on either side that you need to get the ball over and into, so a lot of yo…
New State Mobile introduces a new mode to get you more bang for your free-bucks
The latest update to Kraftons’ battle royale shooter New State Mobile brings with it lots to enjoy for its players. Between a whole new mode focusing on what makes shooters great, and a new weapon to dominate close quarters with, there is a lot to get into. As well all know, the best part of any shooter is the copious amount of explosions you can unless with grenades and rocket launchers, because wanton destruction is extremely fun. New State is leaning into this with the new KA-BOOM Mode, a Round Deathmatch set on the ARENA map focused on grenade launchers and throwables. This mode brings with it a new weapon; the Red Zone Launcher. This is basically a beefed-up version of the stand…
