  1. When you finish the currently available main quests in Infinity Nikki, you can complete some fun side content like the Forced Perspective questline. However, there's a ton of content outside the main quests in Infinity Nikki that can keep you busy for hours and reward you with much-needed resources like Diamonds, Shiny Bubbles, and Blings. One series of side quests is the Forced Perspective series, where you need to get creative with taking photos to complete each quest. View the full article
  2. The Reclaimer 18, a popular Call of Duty: Warzone shotgun, has been temporarily disabled by the game's developers until further notice. The announcement came down through official Call of Duty: Warzone social media channels, sparking speculation in the player community as to the reason why. View the full article
  3. A new Marvel Rivals leak teases that five new heroes will be joining the game, including Professor X and Colossus.

  4. In the later chapters of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, “A Game of Wits” is one of the more interesting (and challenging) sidequests you'll come across. Found in the Sukhothai region, “A Game of Wits” is categorized as a Mystery, meaning it's a sidequest basically consisting of just one big puzzle. Specifically, it's located within Voss’ Camp, which means you'll have to do quite a bit of sneaking around Sukhothai before you can even access it. View the full article
  5. Ahead of the release of Star Wars Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles, Aspyr has revealed that Jar Jar Binks will be a playable character in the game. Jedi Power Battles already featured a varied list of playable characters. However, the bumbling Gungan is likely one of the more surprising additions for fans in the new version.

  6. VLC Media Player developer VideoLAN announced an upcoming feature that will allow users to receive translated subtitles in real-time through AI. This is particularly noteworthy for anime fans, as it will allow users who don’t speak Japanese to watch titles which may not have been picked up by western publishers. Similarly, users who don’t trust […] Source View the full article

  8. The Sims 4 is a massive game given the amount of additional content that's available to purchase, but that doesn't mean it's a perfect game. Instead, it still struggles with an endless list of glitches, and when some are fixed, more inevitably appear when the next piece of DLC is released. Even when there are issues and glitches, The Sims 4 can run decently well, as there aren't many crashes or long loading times. It's just an issue that brings frustration more than anything.

  9. The most important game mechanic in Infinity Nikki comes from the use of special clothing sets known as ability outfits, which are how Nikki gains certain powers to progress through the game. While most of these are fairly typical things, such as catching bugs, fishing, or the game's form of combat known as purification, there are some other abilities that are a bit more unusual. These are not all received well by the community, although many are grateful for the variety that they can represent in mixing things up for the game. View the full article
  10. The Turbulent Timeways event in World of Warcraft is a special celebration where players can revisit older game expansions through Timewalking dungeons for a limited time. Over several weeks, different expansions are highlighted each week, letting you experience past content with adjusted difficulty and rewards that fit the current game. This event brings back memories and gives you a chance to earn unique mounts, achievements, and gear upgrades. View the full article
  11. Hyper Light Breaker is entering Early Access soon on Steam, and players will want to know what to do and how to get in from the ground up on this game. It is described as an open-world roguelite, which is an exciting concept and one that feels fairly unique, although there have been other forays into the same style of game. Once players are able to get into the game, they will be able to find out just what that means for themselves. View the full article
  12. Wuthering Waves has confirmed that Phoebe and Brant are the next Rinascita characters to join the playable roster in Version 2.1. More characters, including Zani, are expected to debut in future Wuthering Waves updates. View the full article
  13. A compilation of four different Doom games, Doom Slayers Collection, may be returning with new PS5 and Xbox Series X/S ports after being delisted in 2024. The FPS game collection features remasters of the original Doom, Doom 2, Doom 3, and the 2016 series reboot simply titled Doom. View the full article
  14. For any emerging live service game, the key to cementing yourself as a mainstay (or, if I'm being brutally honest, simply surviving the first couple of months) is to have enough content and variety to keep players sticking around. Free-to-play shooter Delta Force has done just that since it launched in open beta last month. Even though its debut season is a scaled down, shorter affair, it has still bombarded fans with new maps, modes, weapons, events, and more. Well, for Delta Force Season 2, the pace shows absolutely no signs of slowing down. Read the rest of the story...

  15. The long-awaited Mega Pokémon, Mega Gallade, is making its debut in Pokémon Go. You’ll have the chance to face off against this powerful adversary, but you’ll want to make sure to you prepare your team to take it down. Not only do you need to prepare your team, but you’ll want to bring other players with you to give you the best chance of taking it down. Before jumping into a raid battle, knowing all of Mega Gallade’s weaknesses is important. You’ll want to focus on these weaknesses to quickly bring them down and make sure you know what attacks they can use against you. You can do a lot of prep work to give yourself the best chance of defeating Mega Gallade, and we’ll also cover the best Pokémon counters to use in Pokémon Go. View the full article
  16. When collecting Pokémon in Pokémon Go, teaching them the best attacks is a vital way to get the most out of them. With the addition of Mega Gallade to the roster, there are a handful of attacks you want to teach it to turn it into one of the strongest Pokémon available. Like every Pokémon, it all comes down to their stats and what moves they can use. Mega Pokémon are easily some of the strongest choices you can use in raids, and Mega Gallade is no exception. As a Psychic and Fighting-type Pokémon, it can take part in numerous encounters, and it becomes one of the best raiding choices available to you. We’ll be breaking down the best attacks you should be teaching Mega Gallade, and if it’s good or not in Pokémon Go. View the full article
  17. Now that season 15 of League of Legends has finally launched, a plethora of new changes have hit the game. However, a drastic change to the game’s free cosmetic systems have caused players to openly question Riot Games. Like the start of most seasons of League sweeping changes have been implemented, including a map update and new forms of gameplay. The season also comes with a brand new battle pass that replaces the monetization systems players are accustomed to, thus making both Masterwork and Hextech chests completely irrelevant.

  19. I still can't quite believe just how well Path of Exile 2 has done. Hundreds of thousands of players log on each day to grind the action RPG, despite it being in early access. Well, if 2024 was Path of Exile 2's year, maybe 2025 will be the year of Dragonkin The Banished, an upcoming ARPG similar to PoE 2 that's hitting early access in just a couple of months' time.

The game’s art is entirely based on medieval illuminated manuscripts, which feature very unique art that borders on abstract at points. Inkulinati fully plays into how bizarre that era’s art could be by […] Source View the full article

  25. Swording people out by smacking them with sharp bits of metal never gets old in video games. That being said, 2018’s Kingdom Come: Deliverance taught me there’s an extra layer of satisfaction to be had if you’ve also spent ten minutes hammering your NPC-sticker into life via an anvil minigame. Armed with that blacksmith know-how and after many an hour of play, I feel qualified to say that today’s subject has been vigorously worked from rough and raw materials into finer craftsmanship and polish. From what I now know of “Kingdom Come Deliverance II: Deliver Harder,” it falls into the category of More of the Same, Only Better. If you somehow missed the original, I guess the very rough analog would be: a modestly-sized Skyrim with all fantasy elements replaced with the often deliberately mundane trappings of late medieval times plus a “by the angles” approach to fisticuffs. Oh, and a rich, multi-path tapestry revenge tale threaded with (literal) rags-to-riches elements, too. I’m going to dive into the whys and wherefores of this sequel’s worthiness, but for now I should supply some bargains to the impulse buyers among you. Personally, I’d rather get more intel about my games before I reach for the coin purse and cough up some Groschen. If that’s you too, click here to skip the window shop and read my continued thoughts… Best Prices for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Standard Physical: Amazon: $99 | $139 Gold Ed. Big W: $99 JB Hi-Fi: $89 | $139 Gold Ed. Digital: PS Store: $114.95 Standard | $144.95 Gold Ed. Xbox Store: $114.95 Standard | $144.95 Gold Ed. Steam: $89.95 Standard | $119.95 Gold Ed. Hands On Continued Let’s start with a basic synopsis. Just like the previous game, you’ll be slipping into the Peter Pan-y tights of Henry of Skalitz. He's a blacksmith’s son who—spoilers and a very long story short—goes from surviving the slaughter of his village to somehow entering the service of Sir Hans Capon. Said young lord is pretty good comedy value as he’s a bit of a playboy and pompous ***** who’s constantly getting the more straight-laced Christian Henry into sordid sidequest shenanigans. I can’t say too much about the setup of the one he gets you in during the opening section of the game; suffice to say, it’s one of those “remove all your sick gear and abilities” chestnuts that we gamers adore so much. Kingdom Come Deliverance II, in that regard, is a clean slate proposition that decently welcomes the uninitiated among you into its particular brand of sword ‘n’ board and/or buckling of swash. Fair warning from the onset, though: if you’re not prepared for the more sedate and measured approach to almost every system in this RPG—traversal, progression, and combat—you might find yourself sword and bored if you’re unable to downshift to its preferred pace. And that speed is a “slow burn” for the first few hours. Verily I say that there’s some knightly action in its intro, but, after a fall from grace, you’re in Peasantville, population: you. That means eking out an existence in a foreign land to earn the scratch needed to keep your constitution meters and degrading equipment statuses at bay as you desperately try to find some elusive rung that’s needed to hoist yourself back up to your true station in life. Honestly, as a masochist gamer who eats this sort of misery up, KCD2 appealed. And that’s true despite the developer’s approach to onboarding being almost always pausing the game to throw a four-page pdf of explanations at you before asking you to demonstrate in high-stakes, low-health real-time what you’ve just learned. You might find yourself sword and bored if you’re unable to downshift to its preferred pace. Could’ve been worse. The realism-obsessed Warhorse Studios could have put all of those info dumps in Latin (and probably would have considered it at some point, such is their incredible attention to historical accuracy). After much gawking at this beautiful, spacious world—as I traipsed through its richly populated villages full of reactive and perceptive townspeople with their own schedules—I found purpose. TL;DR: Reentering the upper class requires a shrewdly planned wedding ******. Pleasingly, KCD2 branches off into two main approaches here: cosy up to the miller and his concubine or get into the good graces of Radovan, the local blacksmith. As for performance on the PS5 Pro code I’ve been smashing through, I’m technically still in the preview window for KCD2, so we’re quite a bit distant from any day one patch rectification (if that is indeed planned). That being said, I’ve seen one or two full game crashes while I was perusing these remarkably deep stats and inventory screens. Mind you, having played the first game and fallen victim to AI oddities with regards to pathing and quest progression, I found myself quite surprised by the polish in the out-in-the-field ecosystem. Essentially, I can’t recall any Share-button-worthy instances of this vast complex sandbox going awry. Maybe the odd enemy trying to (unsuccessfully) push through, but then going around one another in order to get me into stabbin’ range. Low-level stuff. Speaking of combat, it goes quite well, but series newcomers should go in expecting a very different approach to making the uppance come to one’s opponents. As before, what’s here is a lock-on heavy, stamina-constrained combat system that is on one hand quite fluid and tactical but, on the other, highlights how sluggish the average person is when circle-strafing in real life. Basically, expect fun but not flashiness. I enjoyed returning to it. Quick flicking the right stick to select an attack angle that matches the stance of your opponent feels fluid and satisfying. It’s the same deal with timing your blocks and ripostes to their incoming swings with L2 and R2, respectively. But mostly, I enjoyed waiting for a bandit or two to shift their focus on my allies, at which point I’d loop around to wail on their exposed pancreas. What can I tell you, folks? Henry is a good Christian soul but I’m a godless min-maxing opportunist. What happens after a scrap is even more compelling. Above and beyond most other open-world RPGs is Kingdom Come Deliverance’s robust and far-reaching consequences system. Even more than before, it seems that every NPC took sharp note of my behaviour, cleanliness, reputation, and proximity to any suspicious deed (be it grand larceny, casual pickpocketing, or deleting them for anything less than self-defense). Henry is a good Christian soul but I’m a godless min-maxing opportunist. Trying to come up by five-finger-discounting my way through this Holy Roman Empire landed me in trouble often. I love that certain attributes can give you brute force conversational options during the interrogation that ensues. For most encounters, I wound up in the stocks with my ill-gotten booty confiscated and my good name in the mud. Honestly, I enjoy that KCD2’s social systems are as brutal and high-stakes as its combat. If you have the temperament for it, there’s something immensely satisfying to be gained from grinding for every skill you need (via repeated use as opposed to some perk tree) and every item on your person. More importantly, I'm invested in the characters and twists in this rollicking roadtrip tale about a lord and his bodyguard in the direst of straits. Plus, and while the code I have doesn't quite feel day one perfect, it's abundantly clear that Warhorse Studios has spent their extra polishing time well. In the short time it's taken to collate my thoughts and slap them into the site, a rare and telling thing has occured—a definite itch to return to KCD2 has developed. That being said, I very much think you should carve out some calendar space and prepare for a hard day's knight come February 4th.
