The Sims 4's latest expansion Lovestruck is finally here and although players are smitten with the DLC's new romance options, one of the best features is causing some chaotic dates. One of the most anticipated aspects of Lovestruck is the introduction of an in-game dating app that allows Sims to quickly set up a rendezvous with another character for a night of quiet fun or boisterous excitement. Its introduction has been a long time coming but the community certainly wasn't expecting Maxis to go the extra mile and include player-generated content in the dating pool. View the full article
Bots in video games are a prominent issue, especially when developers add them themselves. Now, a Warzone content creator is pointing out that bots may have been silently added to the game, and and there’s some compelling evidence for the theory. The YouTuber in question is Warzone creator Speros, who shared a video on X (formerly Twitter) on July 24. The video shows a “player” running around the Warzone map aimlessly, who ignores Speros when he speaks in voice chat and approaches. The “player” reacts only when shot—and with remarkable precision and reaction time, prompting the YouTuber to speculate that they just encountered a ****. View the full article

***** by Daylight is still going strong eight years after launch. The influx of players with each chapter and event sometimes shakes up the servers, so here’s how to check the server status in DBD. How to see ***** by Daylight server status ***** by Daylight is among the most popular live services, and, naturally, susceptible to unstable networking. Image via Behaviour Interactive. As Behavior Interactive does not support an official server status page like Riot Games or others, you have to seek alternative options. Services like Downdetector are among the best ways you can find out whether a server is working as intended or not, though it’s largely based on player-reported incidents and can sometimes offer incomplete or misleading information. Nonetheless, it’s one of the better ways to understand what’s going on. View the full article

Remnant 2's third and final DLC is called The Dark Horizon, developer Gunfire Games has announced. The announcement was made a year after the successful launch of the co-op shooter sequel, dubbed ‘Dark Souls with guns’, alongside a release window of September 2024. “Players will return to the necropolis world of N’Erud only to discover that a bizarre phenomenon has taken hold,” Gunfire teased. The September 2024 release window for The Dark Horizon amounts to a delay of sorts, given Gunfire had committed to releasing all three DLCs in Remnant 2’s first year. “We’ve made the difficult decision to move back the release of our third DLC, so that we have more time to deliver you the best possible experience that you deserve,” Gunfire explained. “Our goal is for The Dark Horizon to be the most expansive DLC for Remnant 2. Not only have we packed this DLC full of even more of the Remnant greatness you’ve come to expect, we’re also hard at work on a brand-new game mode that will be free for everyone that we’ll reveal soon along with a new progression system. “While we’re not happy about delaying this DLC release – one you’ve been itching to jump into already – we feel very lucky to see your ongoing support and loyalty to the Remnant franchise. The past year has been nothing short of amazing, and we’re glad that Remnant 2 and its DLCs have brought you as much joy as it has brought us creating this world for you. That said, we’re not quite done yet, more news about The Dark Horizon DLC will come soon! “Thank you once again for your continued support and for being an essential part of the Remnant family. We are excited for what the future holds and look forward to sharing more adventures with you.” Remnant 2 launched in July 2023 to significant praise from players and critics alike, and sold more than one million copies in its first week across Xbox Series X and S, PlayStation 5, and PC. It went on to take down Diablo 4 as July's best-selling game in the U.S. By the end of September 2023, it had sold over two million units. IGN’s 9/10 review called Remnant 2 “a triumphant sequel that doesn’t just reimagine the soulslike genre as a co-op looter-shooter, but absolutely nails that concept in nearly every way.” With Remnant 2 DLC wrapping up soon, thoughts inevitably turn to Gunfire's next game and the possibility of Remnant 3.

Remnant 2 developer Gunfire Games just announced the game’s third and final DLC, The Dark Horizon, is launching in September. We’re returning to the shattered hellscape of N’Erud, where “a bizarre phenomenon has taken hold,” and it looks like we’re getting more than we bargained for. Previous Remnant 2 expansions sent us back to Losomn and Yaesha, so returning to N’Erud is no surprise. This one looks like a departure from the others, though, as the developer’s July 26 announcement says it wants The Dark Horizon to be Remnant 2’s “most expansive DLC,” teasing a “brand-new game mode” that’s “free for everyone” alongside a new progression system.

In EA FC 25, the developers aim to improve positioning, player roles, and team tactics even further by introducing FC IQ.

Today is a big day for No Rest for the Wicked, the action RPG from Moon Studios. The stunning fantasy game has been in Steam Early Access for a little over three months, and while updates were initially fast and furious, things have slowed down a fair bit.

This latest update is the first to arrive after this change in focus. Read more View the full article
