Easter eggs in games are an adored practice in the industry. Especially when they’re done right as well. Respawn hasn’t strayed from this tradition since we might have just discovered an Easter egg in their latest title. As we can see in this video here, Apex Legends is actually hiding the Loch Ness Monster in the game. So the easter egg was accessed by these players when they ran around the map, shooting Loch Ness Monster dolls. These weren’t just random objects they were shooting, since there was actually hit registration and damage numerals on the dolls. This means the developers definitely did intend for the dolls to be shot apart. What happened after was slightly more difficult to describe. We see a giant figure slowly emerge from the water. At first it just looks like a land formation but eventually after staring at it, you realize that it’s sentient. After towering over the surface of the water, Nessy simply swims further ahead until vanishing out of … [Read more...] about Apex Legends Has The Loch Ness Monster Easter Egg; A Giant Dinosaur!

Apex Legends: Where to Find the Loch Ness Monster Easter Egg
report this adWhen playing Apex Legends, players will want to pay attention to the kill feed, as it’s the source of valuable information, like recent kills or if someone was just downed instead of killed. However, some players may have noticed that the kill feed occasionally has a weird message in it that says, “A Nessy appears…” and may not know what it means. Basically, Respawn has been hiding Loch Ness monster plushies in the Titanfall video games, and Apex Legends is no different. The “A Nessy appears…” message is displayed whenever players shoot the Nessy plush. It’s possible that there is more than one Loch Ness monster on the Apex Legends King’s Canyon map, but we can only confirm the existence of one so far, and it’s easy to find once players know where to look.To find the Loch Ness monster easter egg in Apex Legends, land at Cascades and head north of the respawn station. There is a small … [Read more...] about Apex Legends: Where to Find the Loch Ness Monster Easter Egg
Apex Legends has a hidden tribute to a developer’s dog (and a little Loch Ness Monster)
With millions of players dipping into the new mega-hit battle royale Apex Legends and scavenging its Kings Canyon map for loot, it's cool to see that players are still uncovering new secrets which developer Respawn Entertainment snuck in. Two Easter eggs that have been uncovered since last week's surprise launch include a touching tribute to a developer's dog and the appearance of the Nessie plushie that's seen all kinds of sights throughout the Titanfall series.Let's start with the latter, just in case you're not emotionally prepared for a potentially tear-jerking story. As spotted by players and collated on Kotaku, the mini-Loch Ness Monster plushie Nessie has been a mainstay of Respawn's map design. The little lizard can be found tucked away in just about every single-player level and multiplayer map. Many Nessie locations have been documented, and Nessie lives on in Apex, which takes place in the same universe as Titanfall. She's currently nestled away in the training area, though … [Read more...] about Apex Legends has a hidden tribute to a developer’s dog (and a little Loch Ness Monster)
Incredible SILVER fox found in UK garden – marking first sighting of rare predator in 25 years
AN EXTREMELY rare silver fox is being looked after by the RSPCA after it was spotted in a UK garden. The unique animal was roaming around a suburban garden in Alsager, Cheshire and startled the unsuspecting homeowner. The animal is currently in a temporary home and has been nicknamed "Shadow". RSPCA claim this is the only silver fox they've seen in 25 years. According to superstitious medieval folklore, the monochrome animal is a harbinger of doom to all who see it. The rare animal is in good health and will soon be reunited with his owners. Former RSPCA inspector Amanda Lovett, who now runs Mere Moggies Boarding, helped to capture the animal, which was then taken to the charity’s Stapeley Grange Wildlife Centre in nearby Nantwich. She said: "I was alerted to a post on a local Facebook group and it would seem the fox had been in the garden for most of the day. "This was on Saturday, one of the biggest nights for fireworks, and we knew we had to get the fox to safety." She … [Read more...] about Incredible SILVER fox found in UK garden – marking first sighting of rare predator in 25 years
Vampyr explores the creation of its bloodthirsty monsters in new dev-led short
Vampyr, Dontnod's early 20th century supernatural action role-player, plans to sink its pointy teeth into PCs this spring. A new behind-the-scenes series kicks off today, the first episode of which explores the creation of protagonist Jonathan Reid. Named 'Making Monsters', the following short explains Reid's place within Spanish Flu-ridden London, and showcases the various baddies now stalking its streets—including the shadowy Ekons, bestial Vulkods, and sewer-dwelling Skals. And it looks like we'll need more than wooden stakes and strings of garlic to topple any one of them. Best of luck with that. See for yourself: From that, I found game director Philippe Moreau's take on what makes vampires unique against other fictitious beings particularly interesting: "What interests me about vampires compared with other supernatural creatures, like werewolves or ghouls, is that the vampire is self-aware of their nature as a creature, as a predator," says Moreau. … [Read more...] about Vampyr explores the creation of its bloodthirsty monsters in new dev-led short
