The Esports World Cup for Teamfight Tactics kicked off on Aug. 8 to a fanfare light show and a giant LAN stage—but it lacked everything that made the Riot Vegas Open memorable. Eight teams from around the globe stepped onto the EWC stage for the first of four days of competition in Riyadh, to silence. Teams competed in the newly founded 4v4 team format to determine the top two advancing to the playoffs. Under the banner of bringing esports together, many fans and players opposed the EWC since it’s a Saudi Arabia-backed event—while some player couldn’t take part at all. But with the industry and teams hurting for cash, the money was too good to pass on. Yet, despite the fanfare and money thrown into the TFT event, it has nothing on the Vegas Open.

Image: Oculus Studios Meta is closing Ready At Dawn, its first-party studio behind VR games like Echo VR and Lone Echo, Android Central reported on Wednesday. The shutdown is effective immediately. Meta acquired the studio in 2020. As for why Meta is shutting down the studio, here’s what Android Central said: One report in mid-July said that Meta was cutting its Reality Labs division’s budget by 20% by 2026, and an internal memo sent to Meta employees by Gio Hunt, VP Oculus Studios — seen by Android Central — supports this reasoning. A Meta spokesperson told Android Central that the cuts weren’t being made to “save money,” per se. Rather, these cuts are being made to ensure that Reality Labs stays within the new budgetary constraints and that Oculus Studios... Continue reading… View the full article

Did The Gentlebros come up with the pun "Pi-Rats" and then work backwards from there in deciding that Cat Quest 3 should be pirate themed? Or was "Purr-ibean" the initiating pun? I feel that the action-RPG sequel had to begin with one of wordplay or another, given that its Steam page boasts that it also has "furr-ocious spells" and "gla-meow-rous costumes". It's also claws-out now on Steam, which has me feline fine. Read more View the full article

Intel's second generation of Arc desktop GPUs, the architecture for which is codenamed Battlemage, could be arriving in 2024, beating both AMD and Nvidia to the next-gen punch, if the latest rumors are to be believed. Both AMD and Nvidia's next generation of GPUs are expected to arrive in early 2025, so if an Intel Arc Battlemage release date does arrive this side of the new year, it could greatly bolster the company's place in the graphics card market. Intel's first round of Arc GPUs weren't exactly the immediate best graphics card guide contenders, particularly thanks to their dodgy game stability and compatibility when they first launched. However, after many regular driver updates in the intervening couple of years, they've become solidly reliable options, just without the top-tier performance of AMD and Nvidia's competing offerings. Battlemage, though, is expected to bring a significant jump in performance. Read the rest of the story...

Elden Ring developer FromSoftware has released a surprise hotfix for the game bringing it to version 1.13.2. Publisher Bandai Namco released the patch notes which, while not as long as previous updates released for Elden Ring and its Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, look to a handful of pesky bugs. This includes a bug which caused the ****** status ailment from the ****** Flare skill to be applied to the Deadly Poison Spray skill, a bug that blocked multiplayer in some areas of Scadu Atlus, and more. The full patch notes are available below. Shadow of the Erdtree, which arrived June 21, 2024, features bosses with which FromSoftware "really pushed the envelope" on what the player can withstand, director Hidetaka 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 it once in 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."
