When I first joined the gaming news industry, my main assignment was producing Valorant content. I've played Riot's FPS from day one, but have since fallen out of love with online shooters because the gameplay just feels slightly repetitive (and I'm not as good of a shot as I once was). The Finals piqued my interest because it did something different, but its rapid decline means I've only taken it for a spin once or twice. Yet, a part of me still yearns for some good ol' fashioned head popping, so when I caught wind of Strinova, which is a bizarre mashup of Riot's FPS and, surprisingly, Genshin Impact, I was intrigued.

Elden Ring expansion Shadow the Erdtree will seemingly feature developer FromSoftware's toughest ever bosses, as toning down the difficulty would "break the game itself" according to game director Hidetaka Miyazaki. FromSoftware games are known for being challenging but the conversation around video game difficulty reached new heights thanks to Elden Ring selling 25 million copies. Amid some calls for the developer to make things easier or add different difficulty modes, however, Miyazaki has clarified why FromSoftware instead looks to continuously push players. "If we really wanted the whole world to play the game, we could just crank the difficulty down more and more, but that wasn’t the right approach," Miyazaki told The Guardian. "Had we taken that approach, I don’t think the game would have done what it did, because the sense of achievement that players gain from overcoming these hurdles is such a fundamental part of the experience. Turning down difficulty would strip the game of that joy, which, in my eyes, would break the game itself." Shadow of the Erdree, which arrives today, June 21, 2024, features bosses with which FromSoftware "really pushed the envelope" on what the player can withstand, Miyazaki said ahead of its release. In fact, getting into the expansion even poses a challenge as players must defeat an optional boss. Those eager to explore every inch of the expansion can check out IGN's extensive guide, which covers Shadow of the Erdtree's new weapons, its various quest lines, and how to defeat those pesky new bosses. In our 10/10 review, IGN said: "Like the base game did before it, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree raises the bar for single player expansions," we said. "It takes everything that made the base game such a landmark RPG, condenses it into a relatively compact 20-25 hour campaign, and provides fantastic new challenges for heavily invested fans to chew on." Ryan Dinsdale is an IGN freelance reporter. He'll talk about The Witcher all day. View the full article
The developer of Witcher 3 has congratulated the developer of Elden Ring after the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion overtook Blood and Wine to become the best-reviewed expansion ever. At the time of this article’s publication, Shadow of the Erdtree has a Metascore of 95, whereas Witcher 3 expansion Blood and Wine currently sits on a Metascore of 92. IGN’s Shadow of the Erdtree review returned a 10/10. We said: “Like the base game did before it, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree raises the bar for single-player DLC expansions. It takes everything that made the base game such a landmark RPG, condenses it into a relatively compact 20-25 hour campaign, and provides fantastic new challenges for heavily invested fans to chew on.” Blood and Wine, which came out in 2016, got a 9/10. We said: “Geralt gets a fitting sendoff in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Blood and Wine, courtesy of a strong cast and new items.” In a tweet, CD Projekt congratulated Elden Ring developer FromSoftware for the release of Shadow of the Erdtree, and even pointed to its own staff preparing for its release today, June 21. “For the last eight years, The Witcher 3: Blood and Wine had the honor of being the best reviewed expansion for a role-playing game,” CD Projekt said, “but @ELDENRING gets to wear that crown now. Congratulations to the entire team at @fromsoftware_pr on their stellar work!” Here's a live view of REDs this week trying to prepare for Shadow of the Erdtree. [Hidden Content] — The Witcher (@witchergame) June 21, 2024 The tweet about CD Projekt staff preparing for the release of Shadow of the Erdtree is of course in relation to the requirements that must be met in order to access the expansion within the base game — players must tick off a handful of obscure feats beforehand, including beating an optional boss. IGN's guide on how to prepare for the Shadow of Erdtree is fully up to date with everything you need, however, and make sure to check out our Elden Ring interactive map to ensure you're not missing any important collectibles. As for The Witcher 3, CD Projekt is working on another game set within the fantasy universe, codenamed Polaris, but it won't arrive until 2025 at the absolute earliest, and probably later. There are two other Witcher games on the horizon too, including a remake of the original Witcher and a multiplayer spin-off. Wesley is the *** News Editor for IGN. Find him on Twitter at @wyp100.

The Unity-based clicker game simply called Banana has been accused of being nothing more than a scam, which the developers have firmly denied. The indie game is incredibly simplistic. Upon installing it, players are presented with a screen with a single banana in the center, and the gameplay consists solely of clicking on the fruit over and over. The Steam description elaborates that every 3 and 18 hours, you get dropped a banana. View the full article
AMD has just dropped the price on its trio of Ryzen 8000G CPUs, which are the company's chips with powerful integrated graphics intended to power small gaming PCs without the need for a separate graphics card. This AMD CPU price cut sees between $20 and $30 taken off the MSRPs of the 8700G, 8600G, and 8500G. These aren't the sort of AMD CPUs we'd normally pick out as the best gaming CPU options, as most of the time we'd recommend buying a CPU with basic integrated graphics (or none at all) and a separate graphics card, to get the best gaming performance. However, if you're looking to build a really tiny gaming PC, or you just want to build a general-purpose mini PC that can do some occasional light gaming, then these CPUs are ideal.
