Mortal Kombat: Complete Edition removed from Steam

The reason for Mortal Kombat's removal from Steam is unknown, but Internet detectives have indulged in various "conspiracy theories".

Mortal Kombat: Complete Edition was exclusive to consoles before it saw the light of day on computers. The game originally came out for the 2011 PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Two years later, she appeared on Steam. The title NetherRealm Studio has arrived on PC in full release and with all the accessories that were on the consoles. Unfortunately, as of yesterday, it can no longer be purchased on Steam. Those who have had the game before will be able to keep it and play as much as they like.

The reason why this happened is not officially known, but there are rumors that it has something to do with Freddie Kruger. What is it about? Well, there is a possibility, which has not yet been confirmed, that they removed the game from Valve's platform because of the rights to the said character. The rights to the popular dream walker have returned from the hands of Warner Bros. to those of Wes Craven, his creator. Of course, there are other speculations such as, say, expiration of musical rights in the game.

Of course, this is not the first time a game in the series has been removed from Steam. The same thing happened in 2015 to The Mortal Kombat: Arcade Collection, when the eponymous title was removed from the platform mentioned. Still, the reason was brief and clear at the time - all games that were supported by Windows Live had died.

Call of Duty Warzone is growing day by day, played by 30 million players

A week after earning an impressive 15 million players, Warzone has now been able to gather as many as twice as many people.

Only two weeks have passed since the launch of Call of Duty Warzone. It's a free battle royale game from the creators of Call of Duty Modern Warfare and the second in the series. The coronavirus pandemic has nailed people to couches, which benefits the entire gaming industry, and therefore this game.

Call of Duty Warzone played 30 million players, and it took him ten days. Last week, that number was 15 million, and now it has doubled. Warzone became extremely popular, as evidenced by the fact that he came to this goal faster than Fortnite. The Epic Games game only arrived after two months. Apex Legends, on the other hand, reached up to 25 million players at the end of the first week of release, which would roughly put them at odds.

It will be interesting to see how long this Activision title will grow before declining. Apex Legends, for example, quickly reached the figure of 50 million players and then stagnated slightly. Admittedly, he ended the year at 70 million legends, but the fact is that the demand for them was not the same as the one at the beginning.

Nintendo players are being barred by PlayStation 4 players from doing Super Mario games

Nintendo is overseeing Sony's Dreams game and is seeking to ban creators from creating content that includes Nintendo's characters.

In a game called Dreams for PlayStation 4, it is possible to make games, scenes, characters and music according to original ideas. However, the most popular creations in the game include famous characters: Spider-Man, Crasha Bandicoot, Super Mario and others. While the creation of such characters is generally forbidden, the moderation itself is not rigorous, so deleting the content is the only complaint of others. And that's exactly what happened in Super Mario's case.

The user, nicknamed Piece_of_Craft, was thus removed from Dreams by his Super Mario creation, and the notice explicitly states that this occurred at the request of Nintendo. Fortunately, the creator of the content in question will not suffer the consequences because Nintendo has no legal basis to sue. However, the fact that they care about protecting their own characters is shown by the extent to which someone from Nintendo is watching what players create in the PlayStation game console.

Unfortunately, this case confirms that all those who seek to make Super Mario games at Dreams will fight the windmill in the future. Too bad, that experimentation could have given rise to some interesting ideas.

Doom Eternal smashed the first day on Steam and the Stream, but a major miss was made

Bethesda and id Software may be happy - Doom Eternal has attracted twice as many players to PC than Doom from 2016.

As for quarantine, and because of the hunger for high-budget games, Doom Eternal achieved a great result yesterday on launch day itself. According to statistics on Steam, the new Doom finished yesterday among the ten most played games with more than 100,000 players playing the game simultaneously. By comparison, the 2016 Doom played a maximum of 44,000 players at one time.

To make things even better for Doom Eternal and id Software, the game was also extremely popular on Twitch - over 115,000 people watched it. Bethesda has no direct earnings from this, but it is clear that interest in the brutal Doom is quite high.

But the launch of the game did not turn out to be the most fun for Bethesda. By someone's inattention, the game was launched in the PC version with the DRM-free version of the executable file. Since Doom Eternal uses Denuvo's protection, it turns out that id Software left the door open for pirating its game.

Rainbow Six Siege gets a new arcade mode

This limited event will be open to all players who jump into the game in a given period.

Ubisoft has promised players at the recently concluded Six Invitational 2020, the largest Rainbow Six Siege competition, that it will begin to introduce some arcade modes into the game. It's part of a plan to let all R6 Siege users relax after more competitive matches. It was then promised that several would come out throughout the year, but only on weekends.

Rainbow Six Siege got a new mod today. This is a Golden Gun playing 5v5 on a reworked Oregon map. Everyone gets a gun that has only one bullet inside the cartridge. The peculiarity of this is that the player immediately kills the opponent, regardless of whether they hit him in the arm, leg or head. However, knives and the special skills available to operatives will still be able to be used. Why available? Quite simply - some had to be thrown out because they would bring an imbalance into the game itself.

The Golden Gun will be in operation by the 23rd of this month. In addition to the fun of gameplay, everyone will be able to buy gold paint for the D-50 gun. Ubisoft says they are eagerly awaiting the reactions of the players to see if it is worth inserting mods like this or if they will have to opt for others.

Teamfight Tactics, an auto chess from LoL, is also available on cell phones

The popular auto chess League of Legends has come out of beta after it arrived on mobile devices earlier this month.

A closed beta of Teamfight Tactics for mobile was announced during the second month. For the past month, only select people have had access to this League of Legends auto chess car to give them thoughts and criticisms. The game has now come out of beta in full and everyone has gained access to the same.

Teamfight Tactics is available on Android and iOS mobile phones and can be downloaded through Google Play and the App Store. The TFT mobile app will be able to connect to your main Riot user profile. All purchases, levels, and rankings will be transferred to one or the other, depending on the device on which you play.

Still, there is one small change from the PC version. The currency used to buy the items will not be in the form of Riot Points, but the one available in the country you play from. Also, crossplay will be enabled, meaning players on mobile versions can play against those on computers.

Two great Tomb Raider games are shared free of charge

Visit the tombs for free this weekend and avoid a bunch of deadly traps from two views - one over your shoulder and the other from an isometric perspective.

If you feel like having an adventure event this weekend and staying within your own four walls, Square Enix has prepared two Tomb Raider games for you - for free. Although these are relatively older titles, you can download them completely free of charge on Steam and they remain in your collection permanently, but you must do so until Tuesday, March 24, which means - you have time.

A significant part of the gift package is Tomb Raider from 2013, an action adventure re-invented by Lara Croft as Tomb Raider. The game was extremely praised at the time and the reboot of the series was very well received.

Another Tomb Raider gift game puts you in an isometric perspective - in Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris you can avoid the traps on your own or in company, as it is a title that can be played cooperatively.

So if you don't know what to play this weekend without having started the games mentioned above, enjoy two virtual adventures. After all, the games will be account-related so you can play them later.

Formula 1 will still be driven ... virtually

Virtual races will be held instead of those postponed and canceled, which means that we will be watching such exhibitions for a minimum of six months.

The spread of coronavirus has put an end to all important activities in the sports world. The Australia Grand Prix was due to ride last weekend but was canceled for a well-known reason. Long before that, the GP of China was delayed, and the same treatment was experienced by Bahrain, Vietnam, the Netherlands and Spain. Monaco was originally supposed to be delayed, but late last night it was decided that it would be canceled.

That means Formula One fans have run out of racing by the end of the fifth month. Still, F1 made sure fans didn't get bored during this period. It was agreed with all riders that they would virtually race at the times in which they would otherwise be delayed / canceled. The same will be flown in F1 2019, with Bahrain first scheduled this Sunday.

The first virtual race of the season should have all the drivers in the role of players, although the possibility of some famous faces from F1 esports is mentioned. Because not all F1 2019 drivers play, everyone will be able to choose their own aids to help get to grips with the new environment. The races will be run at 50% of the total laps, which means that the Bahrain Grand Prize will have 28 of them. Qualifications will be in full swing or shortened.

It should take about an hour and a half. The virtual season will air on Formula One official profiles - Twitch, Facebook and YouTube. Trails such as those in Vietnam and the Netherlands will be replaced with alternate ones, as the two are not within the F1 2019 game. This event is expected to last at least until the end of the fifth month, with the possibility of an extension, but it will all depend on the coronavirus situation.
