There are five different Flabébé forms - with the difference being their flower colour - and a few are regionally exclusive. Due to this, it’s a good idea to know exactly which Flabébé flower colours are available in your region. Once you’ve caught a Flabébé, you may want to add its evolutions to your Pokédex and, to obtain this Pokémon’s final evolution, you need to know how to evolve Floette into Florges....

Pokémon forms frequently change naturally in the main series of Pokémon games, but have until now been locked within Pokémon Go, and players have been tasked with collecting each individually. That all changes with the game’s Fashion Week event, beginning next Tuesday 21st September, and its introduction of Furfrou, which has an eye-opening 10 fashionable forms. The game’s new form-changing mechanic requires 25 Candy and 10k Stardust, and appears as a new option on the Pokémon’s detail screen, like an evolution....

It’s a strange type combination of bug and steel, which opens up a lot of move possibilities in Pokémon Go. It is great for battling grass types, and its steel moves can really pack a punch against ice and rock types. However, you will still need to beat Mega Scizor in raids first - which is where learning about the Mega Scizor counters and Mega Scizor weakness will come in handy....

We called it “flimsy and compulsive - and exhilaratingly new” in our Pokémon Legends: Arceus review, and you can play it as soon as your local Pokémon Legends: Arceus release time will allow. While you wait, we have a few other stories which might take your interest - such as Nintendo taking aim at a fan-made Pokémon FPS to how Pokémon fans think the Diamond and Pearl remakes hold hints for Legends: Arceus....

The Monster Hunter meets Pokémon Go-style adventure arrived for Nintendo Switch last Friday. Today, Nintendo of America announced global sales figures. We already knew Arceus was doing the numbers - yesterday, we got word it had sold 1.43m copies in Japan in the game’s opening three days, making it the second fastest selling Switch game ever in the country (behind Animal Crossing: New Horizons). Here in the UK, Arceus topped this week’s boxed game chart and became the fourth-biggest UK Pokémon launch ever....

Though, before you battle her in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, you must collect the Olive Roll challenge - also known as the Cortondo Gym Test! Below we cover how to complete the Olive Roll challenge and how to beat Bug Gym Leader Katy, so you can add another Gym Badge to your collection. On this page: It can also be reached by heading directly north-west from Cabo Poco - though you will have a lot of terrain to cover - or by taking the south-west road out of Cascarrafa, following it until you reach the West Province (Area One) - Central Pokémon Center and, from there, heading south-east....

The enhanced version released in June and was a free upgrade for paid owners of the game, but not for players who scored their copy through PlayStation Plus. The game was part of the PlayStation Plus lineup in March, so if you didn’t redeem it then, unfortunately you can’t take part in the upgrade, Additionally, the Intermission DLC featuring Wutai operative Yuffie Kisaragi will be 25% off. The PS5 upgrade offers a native 2160p presentation at 30fps or a slightly lower 1512p at a smooth 60fps, as well as enhanced texture quality and speedier loading times....

The statement comes after the studio was accused of a hostile work environment and sued by a former employee back in 2018. The victim in the case quit their post due to offensive photoshopped images of employees being circulated at the studio, images of which came to light after a damning joint investigation into toxic workplace culture was undertaken by a team of journalists at French publications Le Monde, Canard PC, and Mediapart....

Doktor’s Curse first emerged as a seasonal treat for Rainbow Six Siege players back in Year 4, but its 5v5 hide-and-seek-style Monster Hunt mode - set across a suitably sinister Frankenstein-themed version of the Theme Park map - has, according to Ubisoft, seen a few tweaks for 2021. As before, one team takes on the role of the attacking Exterminators while the other plays the defending Monsters. The Exterminators’ goal is to eliminate all Monsters in order to win the game, while the weaker Monster players must either defeat Exterminators or simply stay alive....

Insomniac had previously promised a 60 FPS update for the game in April. Its release now means you can try it out tonight while the 2016 platformer is still available to play for free via Sony’s Play at Home initiative. The Play at Home promotion runs until tomorrow, 1st April, at 4am UK time. All of this comes ahead of sequel Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, which launches exclusively for PlayStation 5 on 11th June 2021....

They’re relatively simple, but it’s possible to get stumped early on when trying to find their locations in the first place, and then again things can get a little dicey once you find them and need to take on the related ‘activities’ that they each entail. Here then, we’ll outline all five Gunslinger locations, how to find the Gunslingers themselves, and how to duel when the situation arises, too. On this page: How to start the Gunslingers mission To begin the mission, if you haven’t already, first head to Valentine, at any point after you set up camp and reach Chapter 2....

Although Resident Evil 4 producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi was keen to let everyone know that he is thoroughly committed to the Resident Evil 4 remake project for now, when asked by Noisy Pixel if the 22-year-old Resident Evil: Code Veronica may get a similar remake treatment, he said that if the “opportunity comes, maybe”. Whilst hardly a cast-iron guarantee, it should be welcome news for Resident Evil fans, particularly as Code Veronica was a critical darling at the time and is still considered by some to be the “real” sequel to Resident Evil 2....

All three titles - which is to say, the Resident Evil 2 and 3 remakes, plus Resident Evil 7 - will feature support for 4K resolution, “high” framerates, ray tracing, and 3D audio. Players yet to experience the games will be able to purchase the newly updated Xbox Series X/S and PS5 versions from their respective stores, but existing owners on Xbox One and PS4 can grab the updates relevant to their platform at no additional cost....

Biotech’s first big additions come in the form of children and reproduction, with colonists and outsiders able to get pregnant and give birth - either naturally or via technological means. Once babies grow into children, they can learn through lessons, play, or by watching adults work, with players able to determine their traits and passions every few years. Children given more attention and better education are more likely to become happy and talented adult colonists - but players can alternatively skip the nuturing and use growth vats to pump out soldiers and cheap workers to exploit....

This monitor has a 3840x1600 resolution - essentially a shorter version of 4K - plus a 165Hz refresh rate, G-Sync Ultimate support and DisplayHDR 600 certification for impactful HDR. Interestingly for a curved monitor, it actually uses a Nano IPS screen, a perfect all-around panel that offers great motion handling, wide viewing angles and accurate colours. All in all, it’s an impressive spec list, which makes the discounted £899 pricing almost reasonable....

It’s a VA panel, so you’re promised a wide range of viewing angles with great contrast and clarity. And with a WQHD resoltuion, you can take advantage of being even more immersed in your games thanks to the 1500R curved design. Such a wide monitor can also be ideal for productivity and moving around multiple apps and desktop windows. AOC have also made sure it’s ideal for esports and fast-paced action games and shooters, thanks to the 144Hz refresh rate....

Baldur’s Gate 3 has been dreamt about for nearly two decades, so there was a lot of excitement when Larian Studios announced it will be completing the long-awaited trilogy. Larian has an excellent record of table-top style RPG games with the recent success of Divinity: Original Sin 1 and 2. If you can’t wait for Baldur’s Gate 3 to come out, you can play the first chapter in early access as Larian continues to develop the game....

The announcement came as the game passed the two million player figure overall - with the other million coming from 1m copies shipped to retailers and sold digitally (thanks, RPGSite). It’s intriguing to see the RPG gain such a large reach through Microsoft’s subscription service - at a time when the power of being included in these has been under the spotlight. The action RPG was added to Game Pass back in September last year....

The show is set in medieval Korea during a zombie apocalypse and focuses on prince Lee Chang attempting to investigate a mysterious illness afflicting the king. The game, from developer Action Square, is an adaptation of the show set for release on PC and mobile globally. Watch on YouTube Kingdom: The Blood - Gameplay Trailer Kingdom: The Blood will have a single-player campaign where players create their own character and slice through zombies in locations familiar to fans of the show....

Somerville is pretty simple in theory. It’s the alien apocalypse, viewed from the perspective of a family - two parents, a toddler, a dog - whose lives are upended by the invasion. The family is swiftly separated after the aliens descend and we follow the father as he heads out to find everyone again. But I play it and other games intrude. For one thing, it’s hard not to think of the likes of Limbo and Inside, since Jumpship, the studio behind Somerville, shares serious DNA with those games, and belongs, in a sense, to the genre they codified....
