Marvel Rivals continues to dominate the gaming space with top streamers and gamers everywhere jumping into the multiverse, but its updates have felt a bit sparse. Today’s new update for Rivals is the game’s first patch since Jan. 22, which added the Spring Festival event. This new update is far less substantial, and a pattern is beginning to form when it comes to the game’s update schedule that may be problematic in the long run. View the full article

The Kingdoms mode in Darkest Dungeon 2 offers a lot of upgrades to your Inns which are pivotal to your success. A total of five trees and a couple of handfuls of options per tree are available, allowing for a ton of gameplay customization. That said, given how challenging and punishing this mode is, you're somewhat restricted in your choices at the beginning of Darkest Dungeon 2 Kingdoms, whether you know it or not.

For its 25th anniversary, EA has re-released The Sims 1and 2, which means a whole generation of players are experiencing the original iconic life simulator for the very first time, bugs and crashed included. Any player more used to the modern versions of The Sims may be surprised by the level of difficulty present in the earlier games, especially in The Sims 1. However, if any players are having a particularly hard time managing their Sims needs with their career and relationships, there may be a simple reason for it. View the full article
I never cease to be amazed by portals in video games. Even though the tech is nearly two decades old (and older still, if you include the use of portal rendering for hidden environment transitions in Thief and other early 3D games), Portal's seamless, real-time transitions through holes in space still feel like magic to me, and I love seeing it appear in other games too. One of the better uses of portals lately can be found in Marvel Rivals, where if you're playing as Doctor Strange, you can conjure portals in thin air and drop your entire team of superheroes on the heads of your foes...

As you explore the many paths and roads in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, expect to discover multiple nests on trees along the way. These nests are stuck up in the many branches, and getting them down can be a challenge, but they have several rewards. There are a few tricks you can use to knock a bird’s nest out of a tree. When you do, they drop a handful of items you can pick up and take. Don’t expect to find a king’s bounty inside the nest, but it’s still nice to find a handful of supplies—especially if you need money, some lockpicks, or simple items to aid you on your trips. Here’s what you need to know about how to get nests in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. View the full article
With each passing day, League of Legends players are getting tired of the URF game mode and looking out for reasons from the community on why are they still having fun playing it. In a Reddit thread, League players shared their URF experiences and how they are frustrated with the same old champions with short cooldowns dominating matches. The URF mode’s premise was great on paper: shorter cooldowns in a place where players could experiment with wacky builds to have fun away from the competitive Summoner’s Rift. But now that fun mode is just a shadow of itself. View the full article

Betrayer is undoubtedly one of the, if not the strongest, traits in Verse Piece. With Betrayer, grinding PvE content will be much easier, and you will certainly have the upper hand in PvP as well. Without further ado, let's find out how to get the Betrayer trait in Verse Piece! Betrayer Trait Quest in Verse Piece Betrayer quest NPC on the Lost Isle To get the Betrayer trait in Verse Piece, you will need to complete a specific quest related to it. You can find the quest NPC on top of a rock surrounding the Lost Isle, the island where bosses automatically spawn. There are two requirements for completing the Betrayer trait quest: You need to be level 5000 or above. You have to kill 50 players after starting the quest. Make sure to swap your trait for one that you won't need because Betrayer will replace your current trait upon quest completion. Also, keep in mind that because the Betrayer trait doesn't have rarity, you won't get prompted to confirm if you want to reroll it. How to Efficiently Complete The Betrayer Quest Getting 50 kills won't be easy, especially if you are not max level and you don't have one of the meta swords, specs, or fruits in Verse Piece. So, to finish the quest quickly, you can make an alt account, join the same server, and farm kills on your main account. Keep in mind that when someone dies in PvP, no one can damage them for a few minutes. However, there is a workaround for this. When your other character dies, go to the Roblox options menu and click the Respawn button. This way, when your character resets, they will be able to damage the character that previously killed them. What Bonuses Does the Betrayer Trait Give? Preview of the stats given by the Betrayer trait The Betrayer trait gives you an insane x7.5 Damage Multiplier, along with +7500 to Defense. The only other traits in Verse Piece that are as strong are Monarch and Rejected Zenin. For a more detailed preview of all traits and trait passives in Verse Piece, check out our traits and trait passives guides. As a side note, getting killed by a player with the Betrayer trait is needed to complete the Jinwoo Quest, unlock the 2nd Awakening title, and get the Sung Jin Woo sword. That sums up everything you need to know about how to get the Betrayer trait in Verse Piece. If you want to get yourself some free Race Rerolls and storage expansion materials, then make sure to check out our Verse Piece codes.

Hold on to your hats, Hunters. The Bloodborne remaster and/or PC port has never felt more real than it has after recent developments. This is not copium or hopium. I swear. After Sony recently sent a DMCA for a mod that allowed Bloodborne to be played at 60 FPS on PS4, another DMCA has just hit the internet. This time, it’s for the Bloodborne “demake,” which is a PS1-like version of the game. And it’s got all of our heads spinning. View the full article
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is a massive game by all means. Main quests, side quests, tasks, and of course, the zany bouts of dice—Warhorse’s 2025 sequel has no shortage of stuff to do for you. In the process, you also have 48 achievements to hunt. As a rule of thumb, pay attention to quest givers when you hear about time constraints on their quests. Unlike many games, KCD 2 goes the hardcore direction and actually holds you accountable for putting off quests that have story reasons to demand your immediate attention. View the full article

Cruelty Squad is undoubtedly one of the weirdest indie breakthroughs of this decade, a wilfully obtuse and unpleasant immersive sim in which you play a corporate assassin in a lo-fi 3D world painted with vomit. But we dug its counter-cultural (and counter-mechanical) approach and, following its success, the developer has since been working on a new game called Psycho Patrol R, which has just dropped a new trailer in advance of its early access launch in a few weeks' time...

Episode Heresy brought a bunch of new seasonal weapons to grind for in Destiny 2. One of these weapons is Psychopomp—yet another grenade launcher of the Area-denial Frame archetype introduced back in The Final Shape. Psychopomp is an Arc Area-denial Frame grenade launcher, making it the first weapon of this archetype of this element. Slowly but surely, we’re about to collect them all. It comes with a couple of decent perks, including Rolling Storm, which synergizes with the new Arc verb, Bolt Charge. View the full article
When I’ve had enough of fighting the dogs in a respectable, straightforward manner, I pick them up with my mind and - with a casualness that has to be extremely insulting if you’re a dog - drop them directly off a cliff. This ends the fight immediately. Sometimes I resort to this low move out of frustration, when a dull fight has dragged on for too long. Sometimes I resort to it out of panic, because I’ve accidentally set fire to every hard surface within ten feet, or frozen myself to a wall. Often it’s just for the pleasure of it. In Eternal Strands, Yellow Brick Games’ debut title, you play the leader of a "weaver band", a crew of freelance magicians, in a world where something extremely bad happened to magic. Some years ago, the Enclave, a city state acting as the isolationist heart of the world’s magic, exploded in a kind of power surge - one part tsunami, one part blown fuse - and just as quickly sealed itself off from the world outside. Somehow managing to breach the wall, your band finds themselves the first people to set foot inside the ruined capital since the calamity and sets about uncovering the mystery of what exactly went wrong.

What are the Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Twitch drops? Any budding knight knows that their proficiency in battle is tied directly to the quantity of drip they're decorated with.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060 graphics cards are reportedly set to stick with eight-pin power connectors, rather than use the company's new 12VHPWR connector, suggests a new leak. This would be a change from some of the company's previous RTX 4060 Ti cards that did use the new connector. Meanwhile, the total power draw of the cards will be low enough that power supplies rated to just 650W will be sufficient to power them. As likely contenders for spots on our best graphics card guide, when it comes to those seeking an entry-level GPU, the RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060 look set to be the go-to options for gamers seeking an affordable graphics card with a simple upgrade path. As such, Nvidia's apparent decision to remove the need for a new connector could be a welcome one. Read the rest of the story...

Techland's Dying Light 2 remains one of the best zombie games on Steam. Resident Evil has the classic survival horror; Project Zomboid brings the survival strategy; DayZ integrates multiplayer tension; Dead Island 2 is a colorful arcade romp; and Left 4 Dead 2 delivers co-op coordination.

One of my first real videogame passions was Heroes of the Storm. Blizzard's now-defunct MOBA brought together all of its various universes and pitted them against one another in a base race for the ages. I could take on Diablo as Sylvanas Windrunner, or demolish foes as Raynor with Lucio healing me up - HotS was truly special. But I started playing not long before Blizzard confirmed that it wasn't getting any more content, only bug fixes and minor adjustments. The feeling of knowing that the game I loved had been abandoned was genuinely crushing. Now, to avoid you feeling a similar sense of woe, Steam is flagging abandoned early access games before you buy them. Read the rest of the story... RELATED LINKS: When is the next Steam *****?

How do Civ 7 Ages work? In Civilization 7, the Sid Meier series is renewed with features and mechanics we've never seen before. These additions make Civ 7 a more accessible game, while others lean into historical and geographical realism. Ages are perhaps a bit of both, guiding new players through ever-advancing research while challenging veterans with multiple civs. Civ 7 Legacy Paths are another aspect of this new direction and go hand-in-hand with Ages in Civilization 7. Through each Age: Antiquity, Exploration, and Modern, you have a new series of goals to achieve, whether you're heading towards a Military, Economic, Science, Culture, or Domination victory. Only by completing enough of these goals can you start the next Age in the strategy game. If that sounds like a lot, we're here to explain in more detail, so here's how Civ 7 Ages work.
