In Season 10, Neymar Jr., Leo Messi, and Paul Pogba enter the fight as some of the greatest players in the game’s Operator form.

New Multiplayer Map

Crossroads Strike, a compact multiplayer map initially seen in Call of Duty®: Black Ops Cold War is returning to Call of Duty: Mobile in Season 10. Prepare your snow gear and deploy there. Fight inside the Munitions Storage and Annex buildings for frantic close-quarters combat or clear the area by manning the outlying lanes and taking down foes as they rush into and out of the main structures. Watch the skybridge that connects the two and cross quickly to avoid being trapped in the open.

Battle Pass Free Tiers

The new Operator Skill, Ballista EM3, and the new LAPA SMG are both included in this season’s free Battle Pass DLC. There are also a number of free camos, weapon blueprints, and the RPD at the 50th Tier.

Battle Royale Map Expansion

Three new locations on Isolated are part of the significant Battle Royale map improvements for Season 10.  Discover the Atlas Ship Crash Site, engage in combat at the Atlas Refining Facility, and put your soccer skills to the test in the brand-new stadium. When approaching these unfamiliar regions, be prepared to compete because other inquisitive Operators are likely to be scouting the area.

To unlock tiers in the previous Battle Pass content accessible in the Battle Pass Vault, use Battle Pass Coins earned in the current season’s Battle Pass. Players will immediately be able to access one Operator, one Weapon Blueprint, one Charm, and one cosmetic item for each previous Battle Pass they purchased.

Any previously obtained content in a tier can be unlocked at a discount. Any Battle Passes you’ve bought from the Battle Pass Vault will be available to you from season to season, letting you advance throughout several seasons. After reaching Tier 50 in the current Battle Pass, players can continue playing and receive shop credits in addition to Battle Pass Coins.

Conclusion

The developers decided to gift all the CoD fans with an early Christmas present. The session 10 of Call of Duty Mobile was launched yesterday on, November 9 at 4PM PT. Fans have been waiting for this for a very long time, as the rumors kept teasing them every now and then. But finally the wait is over and the fans can enjoy their favorite game.

Brief Summary

Google launched its new Pixel 7 series smartphones in October 2022, which received mixed to positive reviews from the tech experts and general public, which is quite exciting as it happened barely a month after Apple launched its iPhone 14 series.

Google has come out with many excellent devices in the past few decades and most have received phenomenal responses, but with each new success, the responsibility increases to churn out even better options for users, whose taste changes at the drop of the hat if they’re not satisfied with the finished product, regardless of the brand.

Once Android 12 OS was released, Google also came out with the new Material You graphic design, which has been based on the Material Design aesthetic but with a modern and updated touch so that it goes well with the current generation.

Now, the tech giant has rolled out the Now app in Android on Google Play Store to make the process simpler but, as it generally happens, there are rules and regulations that the developers have to adhere to so that they can adopt this new style in their applications.

The application is in a demo version through which users can get an insight into most of the features that make up the Material You, which also includes support for dynamic and dark themes, UI Elements, button designs, screen size compatibility, and many more.

Apart from this, users can also avail guides and videos that will help them in understanding the graphic design better because someone who has little knowledge about the subject will be completely lost if it is presented in front of him.

Android Now App is one where users can watch dozens of videos and get helpful tips from designers and developers that have worked on the Material You style creation, at which they’re quite adept and also provide users the liberty to choose topics they prefer so as to keep up to date on day to day news.

Google Android App

Conclusion

As mentioned above, this new app caters to the new generation so comes with the most recent architecture and modularization standards and was created with the Kotlin and Jetpack Compose.

For the unversed, Kotlin is a programming language that has, more or less, replaced Java in creating Android apps, while Jetpack Compose is a framework that enables users to design graphical user interface of apps.

Now App will be something that users will be able to relate to where aside from the design, they will find even the features to be right up to their alley, which is why Google gets all the credit for bringing it up.

Apple wipes 540000 apps
Apple App Store

In Brief

What can be said about Apple that hasn’t been set before? To say that it is arguably the biggest tech giant in the world today is like saying the sun emits solar energy. Apple devices sell like hot cakes, whether it is smartphone, smartwatch, laptop, table, etc. you name it and you can get it.

Apple launched its iPhone 14 series in September 2022, which received mostly positive reviews and has a slew of other devices in the pipeline ready to hit the market in the not so distant future.

Apple App Store is one place from where you can download your favourite games, new applications, old but upgraded apps, and many more. Needless to say, the app store has a major role to play by generating massive revenue each year for the company.

Like any other tech giant, Apple too has its own business line, which is why it is listed on NASDAQ as AAPL and it is the duty of the company to keep track on the numerous applications present on the platform so that nothing wrong happens.

Change is the only constant thing in the world, which is bound to happen within the blink of an eye, which is why most of the applications on the app store have undergone massive change in the past years.

However, a new data has emerged recently that shows that the data has plunged in the recent quarters in the number of apps on the App store, which is a seven year low, where there were 2,184,456 apps in the second quarter of 2022, have now come down to 1,642,759 in the third quarter of the year.

This drop is around 24.79%, implying that a total of 541,697 apps have been removed from the App store in the third quarter alone, which is a huge plunge in the past seven years, because the last time it happened in 2015 when the number of apps were down to 1,672,271.

Apple wipes 540000 apps

It is not that this is the first time that Apple is removing applications from its app store as it is a regular practice by the company because they have an unofficial motto to remove apps every year so that the quality of the app market remains intact.

In addition, Apple is also in the process of creating new plans to remove apps that haven’t been updated and have notified their developers to update the apps within the next 30 days in order to save them from being removed.

Conclusion

While developers are none too pleased with the new development, they have little choice but to go through with the process and some have even spoken out by criticizing the company for allowing older apps to remain in the app market.

MoneyGram Will Let US Users Trade, Sell and Buy Crypto on Mobile App

MoneyGram App

According to the latest MoneyGram announcement, the payment company’s US user base can now use MoneyGram mobile app to deal in cryptocurrencies. The app will allow US users to buy, sell and hold various cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin. MoneyGram International is a United States based peer-to-peer payments and money transfer company.

In the official announcement, the company also hinted at its plan to explain into international markets according to the regulations and also of adding additional token support by next year. MoneyGram’s announcement is the latest addition to the series of companies entering the crypto market by “bringing real-world cryptocurrency and blockchain use cases to life.”

MoneyGram made the official announcement through a tweet on its official Twitter handle, which read, “MoneyGram announces the launch of a new service enabling consumers to buy, sell and hold cryptocurrency via The MoneyGram App. This feature gives customers in nearly all U.S. states the ability to trade and store BTC, ETH and LTC.”

The company in its official press release, which was posted on its Twitter handle, said, “From on/off-ramp services for digital wallets through partnerships with Coinme, Stellar and G-Coin, to cross-border settlement through Circle’s USD Coin (USDC), to the new ability to buy and store crypto simply by using its app, MoneyGram is pioneering cross-border payment innovation and blockchain-enabled settlement.”

For those unaware, this is not the first time MoneyGram is trying to foray into the crypto market. The company’s last crypto endeavour did not come to fruition when the company entered into a partnership with Ripple Labs. The partnership ended right after the company got into a lengthy legal fight with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The legal battle is still going on.

MoneyGram App

While the latest announcement is an encouraging step by the company to get its feet into the crypto ecosystem, many experts have pointed out that it would not be an easy road for MoneyGram. The crypto ecosystem might seem enthralling from far away but the fact remains that MoneyGram would have a lot of catching up to do on its plane considering how much progress the other players in the industry have already done.

It is also not to be a fact that should be forgotten that the crypto ecosystem is not going through its pleasant phases anymore. 2022 has been a tough year for all stakeholders of crypto services and it has significantly brought down the overall interest in the industry.

The company, however, appears to be positive in its response to all the concerns. Alex Holmes, MoneyGram Chairman and CEO, while addressing the press on the occasion of the latest announcement, said, “Cryptocurrencies are additive to everything we’re doing at MoneyGram. From dollars to euros to yen and so on, MoneyGram enables instant access to over 120 currencies around the globe, and we see crypto and digital currencies as another input and output option.”

Holmes further added, “As a next step in the evolution of MoneyGram, we’re thrilled to provide our customers with access to a trusted and easy-to-use platform to securely buy, sell and hold select cryptocurrencies.”

MoneyGram isn’t the first payments company to enter the crypto ecosystem in recent times. Just a month back in October, Mastercard also launched Crypto Source, a program for financial institutions to start providing crypto trading services to their customers.

PS Plus vs Xbox Game Pass: Which one is a more fiery option?

PS Plus vs Xbox Game Pass

Introduction

For a very long time, you had to either buy the game yourself or borrow a friend’s copy if you wanted to play it. However, you now have more options than ever, including Netflix-style services that let you access a constantly expanding library of games in exchange for a monthly subscription fee. Recent developments in game distribution have made this a crucial market for the leading players in the sector, particularly Microsoft Xbox and Sony PlayStation, to compete in.

Microsoft Game Pass and PlayStation Plus, the two major publishing companies’ respective subscription programs, have frequently been compared to one another, which is only natural considering how they both serve to satisfy the same need: an economical way to play games without having to acquire them.

If either of the services interests you, you are probably thinking which is superior. The truthful response is neither. To compare the two, would be like comparing apples and oranges. Although there are certain parallels between the two, and even some areas where one seems superior to the other. Your gaming preferences and the gaming system you already possess will have the biggest impact on your decision.

So, do you want to buy one among the PS Plus and Xbox Game Pass? But you are confused which one is a better option for you? If that’s the case, then we recommend you to continue reading. In this article we have dissected all the major advantages and disadvantages of both the device and provided you with a final consensus.

Sony PlayStation Plus Essential Vs Xbox Live Gold – Benefits

The Xbox’s significantly more established Live Gold is challenged by the most inexpensive tier of Sony’s new subscription service. The commonality between the two is that, to play online multiplayer on either of your consoles, you must be a subscriber to one of them.

Xbox Live Gold and PlayStation Plus Essential both provide free games, however Xbox only provides titles that are compatible with Xbox One and Xbox 360, whilst Sony additionally provides new titles that are even PS5 compatible.

Additionally, Sony has some restrictions on cloud storage. For PS4 and PS5 game data storage, Sony provides 100GB of free cloud storage. Microsoft, on the other hand, is rather accommodating and offers unlimited storage that grows as your saved material does. Microsoft, on the other hand, is rather accommodating and offers unlimited storage that grows as your saved material does.

The PS Plus Essential does, however, have an advantage over Xbox Live Gold because it offers free exclusive game content that is not included in Xbox Game Pass. Additionally, you receive free access to the PS Plus Collection, a collection of more than 4400 titles that is only accessible for the PlayStation 5.

The Essential tier is priced the same as PlayStation Plus was prior to Sony reintroducing the new tires. It costs Rs 499 per month, Rs 1,199 per quarter, or Rs 2,999 per year to subscribe to PS Plus Essential. Xbox Live Gold, on the other hand, is priced at Rs 349 per month, Rs 749 per quarter, and Rs 1,999 annually. PlayStation Plus Essential is definitely more expensive than Xbox Live Gold, but it makes up for the difference in price with a collection of free PS5 titles and exclusive extras.

Sony PlayStation Plus Extra vs Xbox Game Pass – Benefits

PS Plus vs Xbox Game Pass

The PS Plus Extra provides the same advantages as the Essential and additionally access to the game catalog. Sony’s mid-tier plan is competing with Game Pass in terms of price. But the question is whether it is worth the price as Game Pass? If you compare the quantity of games given with the Game Catalog to those with the Game Pass, the answer is no.

For the Xbox One, Xbox 360, and more recent Xbox X/S consoles, Xbox offers 400 games for free through Game Pass. Meanwhile, there are only about 300 games in the PlayStation Game Catalog.

Furthermore, unlike Game Pass, PS Plus does not offer a first-day release bonus for in-house titles; nevertheless, third-party developers may choose to release a game exclusively for PS Plus subscribers before making it available to the general public.

The cost of PlayStation Plus Extra is Rs 749 per month, Rs 1,999 every three months, and Rs 4,999 annually. In contrast, Game Pass costs Rs 349 a month, Rs 1,049 for three months, and Rs 2,099 for the six-month subscription.

Although Microsoft does not offer a yearlong membership, you can still save some money by purchasing the six-month plan twice. Additionally, alternative plans are significantly less expensive than PS Plus Extra. Therefore, Game Pass provides better value than PlayStation Plus Extra.

PS Plus Deluxe vs Xbox Game Pass Ultimate – Benefits

The top tiers of both subscription services—PS Plus Deluxe and Game Pass Ultimate—compare reasonably with one another. Both provide a huge selection of free games and allow online multiplayer and RT cloud gameplay.

But then again, only the one with more features and advantages will be superior.

Both Sony and Microsoft have their own cloud gaming services, and since access to both requires a premium subscription, this equalizes the playing field for both. However, PlayStation Now games can only be played on the PlayStation 5 and PC whereas Xbox Cloud Gaming is accessible on mobile devices. Additionally, Xbox Cloud Gaming offers more games, including well-known ones like Fortnite. However, as cloud gaming is not offered in India, it has no relevance to us.

In terms of the games provided, PS Plus Deluxe offers a collection of about 300 classic PlayStation games from earlier PlayStation consoles, in addition to the other 300 games in the Game Catalog. Additionally, it aligns it with the features of Game Pass. However, when it comes to having Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, you receive a free subscription to EA Plus, which provides a number of free games and trials from the EA studio. Additionally, you are entitled to a 10-hour trial of Game Pass, but PlayStation Plus trials are only valid for a maximum of two to three hours. The major advantage is that Game Pass Ultimate allows you to play games for free on PC as well, with many options to choose from.

PS Plus Deluxe vs Xbox Game Pass Ultimate: price in India

PS Plus vs Xbox Game Pass

The cost of the PS Plus Deluxe is Rs 849 monthly, Rs 2,299 for three months, and Rs 5,799 annually. Game Pass Ultimate, on the other hand, has monthly prices of Rs 499, six-monthly prices of Rs 2,999, annual prices of Rs 5,999, and two-year prices of Rs 11,999. Although the prices are fairly close, Game Pass Ultimate is a considerably better deal than PS Plus Deluxe due to features like one-day releases, a free subscription to EA Play, and PC games.

PS Plus vs Xbox Game Pass: Catalogs

 If the games offered were bad, neither service would be worthwhile. Thankfully, there is a large range of games available on both platforms, and more are constantly being released. However, sometimes a few games are removed from both the services as well.

In terms of number and quality of games, both the products battle neck-to-neck. A large number of games can be enjoyed by the users on either of the devices.

Remember that if a game is removed from either service’s catalog, you won’t be able to play it again unless you purchase a disc or a digital copy. You can utilize your saved game files and any DLC you purchased for the game once you have the game in your possession.

A few of the top titles offered by PS Plus and Xbox Game Pass include:

  • PS Plus
  • Assassin’s Creed Valhalla
  • Celeste
  • Dead by Daylight
  • Demon’s Souls (PS5)
  • Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade (PS5)
  • Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut
  • Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales
  • Rayman Legends
  • Returnal (PS5)

  • Uncharted: The Lost Legacy

 

  • Xbox Game Pass
  • Deathloop
  • Halo: The Master Chief Collection
  • Hitman Trilogy
  • Doom Eternal
  • Forza Horizon 5
  • Minecraft

Conclusion

We have analyzed both Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Plus. The service that is best for you ultimately relies on the games you wish to play. The most reasonable choice for you is PS Plus if you’re a PC gamer who wants to play PlayStation exclusives without investing in a PS4 or PS5. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is undoubtedly the greatest choice for someone who plays on both Xbox and PC.

Because Xbox Game Pass prioritizes quality over quantity, we’d argue that it has the advantage overall. The service contains more titles that most people actually want to play, and getting high-profile releases on day one is a significant draw. If you’re unsure, carefully browse both libraries to choose which one suits you better.

Apple Said to Expand Live TV Advertising Around Major League Soccer Deal

Apple Inc is all set to soon expand its live TV advertising network as a part of the deal signed for streaming Major League Soccer games in 2023. As per a company source, the American tech company is currently having many rounds of discussion with MLS sponsors and several advertising partners regarding showing advertisements in between soccer games. A close source, who requested not to be named, was quoted by the international media revealing that the discussion between all parties is being held privately in advance of the launch scheduled for coming February.

The decision to expand the advertisement network for live television is a planned push by Apple to get into advertising aggressively. Apple’s current advertisement unit generates about $4 billion (which is around Rs. 33,000 crores) in revenue every year. Bloomberg News recently reported that the company is now seeking double-digit billions of dollars in revenue. To achieve this revenue, the company plan includes placing search advertisements in the company’s apps such as the maps services. Users can expect all advertisement plans to roll out as early as next year.

Apple has recently signed a 10-year deal for airing MLS games through a new streaming subscription service along with the Apple TV Plus platform. The tech giant is reportedly also chalking out plans of streaming small portions of the games to Apple TV app users without any charge.

According to reports surfacing in the media, Apple is all set to run advertisements in all three major tiers of the partnership as per the deal. Advertisements will run on the dedicated package, the paid TV+ subscriptions, and the free TV app. Although the company have declined to make any comment officially, the move is the company’s way of expanding its early live Apple TV advertising. The company’s previous live TV advertisement included “Major League Baseball games that already air on TV+.”

Apple has yet to come out with any official word regarding the matter.

Several media reports indicate that Apple’s vision of generating money from the recently signed MLS deal is through advertising revenue during the games along with the standard amount that comes from subscription fees. The contract reportedly has been estimated to cost $250 million (which is close to 2,050 crores in Indian currency)  per season. This settles for $2.5 billion (which is close to 20,500 crores in Indian currency) for the next decade.

Apple’s vice president of advertising platforms, Todd Teresi is the man Apple guy behind all the expansion into live TV advertisement. Teresi is also responsible for leading the recent addition of more advertisement slot placements in the App Store along with transforming the front page. The idea to push the advertisement front can work for the brand in terms of revenue because the company do have apps other than the App Store as an opportunity. Apple Podcasts and Apple Books can be utilised for this. Moreover, Apple also could mimic other streaming services such as Netflix and Disney and launch an ad-supported version of Apple TV+.

This current push to get aggressively active on the advertisement front is a great deal of an ideological change for the brand, considering Apple once advocated against advertisement overload. Also, its recent privacy policy upgrades don’t allow the brand to have too much freedom to go all out with its marketing efforts.
