The past few years have been revolutionary for technology, especially, in the gaming industry. Nintendo‘s innovation with the Switch, back in 2017, followed by an era-defining list of games such as God of War, Marvel’s Spider-Man, and Red Dead Redemption, has brought the industry a really long way. Finally, Sony and Microsoft have also joined the race with their latest PlayStation and Xbox.

These also brought along innovations and improvements in performance and appearance. However, with all these strides, there is always a risk to the vulnerable section.
