Hey everyone, welcome to another edition of the daily gaming news. Here I'll be discussing all the latest goings-on in the gaming industry, from new releases to game announcements and everything in between. So without further ado, let's get started!
Salt and Sanctuary Free
Salt and Sanctuary is going to be available for free on the Epic Games Store for the next couple of hours If you want to redeem it and in a couple of hours we will see what's available next. It's part of the Epic Games Store 15 free games campaign during the holiday season, so be sure to take advantage. I have, the game looks really interesting.
South Korea on NFTs
The next bit of news for today is South Korea's Gaming Rating Administration Committee, who is gaming regulator, basically has made it that all games which feature on Google Play or the Apple App Store, which feature any sort of NFT trading, are going to be outright blocked from getting any sort of rating, which effectively is like banning them. If they don't have a rating, they can't go on the stores. We will see if other countries follow suit. Personally, I am against NFTs in every way. I have looked at it before. I think overall after looking at it, it just seems like a complete waste of time and some could argue outright a scam. We will see if other countries follow suit.
Genshin Impact Subreddit Most Viewed
And then the last bit of news for today is Reddit have released their Reddit Recap of 2021, talking about which subreddits had the most views and most engagement and the most upvotes and things like that. And in terms of gaming, Genshin Impact had the number one subreddit on all of Reddit. It's interesting that the community behind Genshin Impact is massive. Every time they do any sort of special event live stream in China, they can have millions of viewers. Everywhere else they release a trailer for anything new in Genshin Impact and it gets a million views in a few hours. Genshin Impact is still going really strongly.
