Herman Miller has revealed a refreshed version of its Vantum gaming chair, and I am totally here for the new look. The chair, which can now be purchased in four iconic colorways - Nightfall Blue, Mystic Purple, Helio Yellow, and Abyss Green, also features a new design with an improved headrest for added comfort. Of the four hues, my go-tos would be either Mystic Purple (think: a soft lilac) or Helios Yellow (an orange-toned yellow). I love the subtle prettiness of the cool lilac hue, but I also think the brightness of the orange tone would add the perfect pop of ****** to my gaming setup. It's a long way from the solid ****** aesthetic we've come to expect from gamer furniture. This new iteration of the ever-popular Vantum Gaming Chair, first launched in 2022, could just be one of best gaming chairs available right now, particularly as it boasts a setup designed for optimal playing posture, complete with forward-leaning alignment.

I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from New World: Aeternum going into my hands-on preview at Summer Game Fest. After playing for an hour, I now know the scenery, some mechanics, and the general tone of the game, but I’m still unsure of who will play. That’s not to say my demo went poorly. The game felt smooth and quickly guided me through the very early concepts of what Aeternum is and what players can accomplish, which is one of the main areas of focus from this kind-of-sequel, more-of-a-remaster. I got a brief lesson in attacking, blocking, and dodging on a burning ship full of zombie-like pirates before abandoning that sinking boat and swimming to the lush shores of Aeternum. It was there that I finally got to dig into my class weapons as an Occultist, with a ***** staff and ice gauntlet that could deal mostly ranged attacks, and ****** a mini-boss to set the tone.

Gamers who are heavy metal fans got the perfect collaboration when Metallica came to Fortnite on June 13, but at the same time, Epic Games sneakily added a few cosmetics from another popular franchise—Fall Guys. Players have been expecting Epic Games to add Fall Guys to Fortnite for months now. It was first teased a few months back, with Epic Games claiming in April it needs more time. By the looks of it, the wait shouldn’t be too much longer, since a few Fall Guys cosmetics were added with Patch v30.10, though they’re not in the store yet. View the full article

Bad Boys: Ride or ****'s $100 million production budget (a reasonable one in today's Hollywood climate) might make it yet another easy win for everyone involved, as it's earned over $120 million worldwide in just six days and shows no signs of significantly slowing down before the end of the month. That could soon be turned into enough interest for a fifth movie to be made. According to legendary producer Jerry Bruckheimer, who recently talked to Deadline following the movie's strong first weekend, conversations regarding another sequel could be happening sooner rather than later. No longer attached to Michael Bay and after being left dormant for around 17 years, 2020's Bad Boys for Life grossed over $420 million worldwide on a $90 million budget right before the Covid pandemic, so Sony and the creatives jumped on a sequel as soon as they could. Now, more than four years later, history is repeating itself, as audiences are still very much interested in Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett's low-stakes and highly comedic adventures as they ****** ****** and ***********.

Elden Ring has sold 25 million units ahead of its expansion Shadow of the Erdtree launching on June 21, 2024, developer FromSoftware has announced. In a post on X/Twitter, the colossal 25 million units sold milestone was revealed alongside a thank you to fans who have purchased the game. Elden Ring publisher Bandai Namco announced the game crossed 23 million units sold in March 2024, meaning it's grown another two million in less than three months. This all comes ahead of what will likely be another sales boost for the game too when its only expansion Shadow of the Erdtree launches. 『ELDEN RING』の世界累計出荷本数が2,500万本を突破しました。本作をプレイしてくださった皆さん、本当にありがとうございます。 [Hidden Content] — FROMSOFTWARE (@fromsoftware_pr) June 12, 2024 The downloadable content is set to add a wealth of new content to the beloved role-playing game. Just like previous FromSoftware games Dark Souls and Bloodborne, however, accessing the DLC isn't as simple as selecting it on a menu, as players must tick off a handful of obscure feats beforehand, including beating an optional boss. The new map, story, bosses, and items are sure to add more intrigue to the almost mythical status of Elden Ring though, which proved somewhat of a cultural phenomenon when it launched in 2022. Players sought out a ton of different ways to interact with the game, such as using a Fisher Price toy or the Nintendo Switch Ring Fit controller to play it, and someone even made a working VR version. Many are therefore waiting with bated breath for the release of Shadow of the Erdtree, which will likely add hundreds, if not thousands, of new secrets and story threads to be discovered. In fact, even its release date announcement drew hoards of players back to the Elden Ring. In our 10/10 review, IGN said: "Elden Ring is a massive iteration on what FromSoftware began with the Souls series, bringing its relentlessly challenging combat to an incredible open world that gives us the freedom to choose our own path." Ryan Dinsdale is an IGN freelance reporter. He'll talk about The Witcher all day. View the full article

The huge Helldivers 2 patch that folks have been waiting for for a good liitle while now has just dropped and, well, it's just as hefty as Arrowhead had been teasing. Seriously, there are more ******* balancing tweaks than you can comprehend, and an entire separate post dedicated to help you understand why certain changes have been made. You can check out the entire list of changes in the patch notes as per usual, but this time there's also a separate post authored by Arrowhead chief creative officer Johan Pilestedt that goes into more detail on the balancing changes the studio's made. "With these balance changes we wanted to buff up some of the weaker stratagems to make them more viable and add more opportunity for variety in loadouts," he writes, "We also changed a few to make them more consistent, but the goal was to keep a similar or higher power level. We are looking into the stratagems more to see if there are any other stratagems that might need some buffs or changes to make them more viable." Read more View the full article

Mental Salvo describes itself as having an "infinite open world" in which you can do so many things, "they're impossible to list". Were this a game from a triple-A publisher, I'd be heading down to their compound with some powerful magnets and cannisters of highly concentrated acid to wipe out their ungodly creation before it replaces the fundamental particles of our universe with waypoints. But Mental Salvo is actually the work of new indie imaginini (yes, no capital-I), and is a "top down art adventure with light RPG elements" that is perhaps a bit ZANY but also, refreshingly playful in essentially being about poking a big white screen to see what tumbles out of it.
