Pokemon Go July Community Day Details, Featured Pokemon Announced

Now that June is nearly behind us, Pokemon Go developer Niantic has shared the first details for the game's next Community Day. July's event will take place on Sunday, July 21, and this time around, the featured Pokemon will be another starter from Ruby and Sapphire: Mudkip.

Throughout July's Community Day, Mudkip will appear in the wild much more frequently than it normally does, making this a good opportunity to stock up on Mudkip Candy. You'll also have your first opportunity to catch a Shiny Mudkip during the event, and any Mudkip you evolve all the way into its final form, Swampert, up to an hour after the Community Day ends will know an event-exclusive move it couldn't otherwise learn in the game, although Niantic hasn't announced what that is yet.

On top of increased Mudkip spawns, Niantic is offering a couple of bonuses during July's Community Day as well. As usual, any Lure Module you use during the event will remain active for three hours rather than their usual 30 minutes. Additionally, you'll earn triple the usual amount of XP for capturing Pokemon. You can read more details about the event on the official Pokemon website.

Like previous events, July's Community Day will run for three hours. However, this time around, the event will take place a little later in the day, from 4-7 PM local time, when the weather is a little cooler. As Niantic explained, "As part of our continuing effort to make events accessible to as many people as possible, we hope this new time creates an even better Community Day experience overall." The developer says it'll revert back to the traditional Community Day hours when summer ends.

July's Community Day is still a few weeks away, but there's a lot happening in Pokemon Go in the meantime. The Legendary Kyogre is leaving Raid Battles on June 27, when Groudon is set to return. Both Legendaries will also be available through July's new Field Research tasks, as will Shiny Spinda. Speed Forme Deoxys has also begun appearing in EX Raids, and Niantic is bringing Raikou back for a special Raid Day on June 29.

MediEvil Review - Bones 'n Brawn

As a remaster of the 1998 puzzle-platformer of the same name, MediEvil holds up reasonably well. Its cartoonishly charming characters and varied, if relatively simplistic, level design both stands the test of time and looks better than ever thanks to a complete graphical overhaul. But as much as MediEvil can feel like a warm blanket of nostalgia--especially for those of us who played the game 21 years ago--it also feels incredibly dated, with jittery controls and camera issues that regularly get in the way of progress. You play as Sir Daniel Fortesque, a dead knight who is returned to life when the sorcerer Zarok makes an unexpected return to Gallowmere, bringing with him hordes of monsters. Fortesque remains every bit as charming a character as he was; his gnarled teeth, warbly voice, and single, rolling eyeball lose none of their charisma in the remastering process. Zarok's design hasn't aged well, though, and the new visuals leave him looking like a plastic doll who’s been

After Pitching Dragon Age Musical DLC, David Gaider Is Finally Getting To Make His Musical Game

Dragon Age lead franchise writer David Gaider is making a new and intriguing-looking musical adventure game Chorus . As it turns out, the veteran game developer--who left BioWare years ago--has been thinking about making a musical game for a long time. In an appearance at the GameSpot Theatre today at PAX Aus about his new game and studio, Gaider said he in fact pitched musical DLC for Dragon Age during his time at BioWare. The musical Dragon Age DLC could have taken place inside the metaphysical Dragon Age realm called The Fade, he said. It was a semi-serious, semi-joking pitch, Gaider said, but whatever the case, it never happened. Gaider is now getting to realize that dream. His new game, Chorus, is a musical adventure game where they big story beats play out through song. Gaider is working on Chorus with Summerfall managing director Liam Esler (former Obsidian, Beamdog developer), while prolific voice actress Laura Bailey (Uncharted, Gears of War) is voicing the main character.
