The return of Dark and Darker to mainstream platforms was also followed by a return to form. The game is again like it once was, with players dying left and right to common mob spawns—a phenomenon players think is causing the ****** of PvP encounters. “It’s no wonder,” a Dark and Darker player wrote in a Reddit thread from yesterday, June 11, commenting on the lack of PvP fights. They shared a screenshot of the ***** feed from a match, with nearly the entire lobby dying to common mobs. “Let new players cook,” they added. The game launched as a free-to-play early access title on Steam, allowing an influx of thousands of fresh dungeon crawlers that likely didn’t anticipate such difficulty. Players responding to the thread are seemingly welcome of this phenomenon and claim the game is returning to its roots. View the full article

Aran Tal is one of the newest characters in Star Wars: Hunters, and it is one of the only characters in the game not currently available through the typical means to unlock them. Most characters in the game can be unlocked just by playing the game. As you level up, the characters are slowly unlocked one by one, and it usually does not take long for you to collect most of them. However, Aran Tal is not like the others. View the full article

News has been sparse since then, with focus instead on Starfield's updates and gameplay improvements. View the full article
Genshin Impact may be getting a new Geo 5-Star in Natlan, as recent information reveals that the upcoming female character will fulfill a support role. Unlike Fontaine and Sumeru, Natlan has been airtight when it comes to leaks, and Genshin Impact players have remained largely in the dark when it comes to concept art and the Pyro Region's character line-up. Version 4.8 introduces Emilie as the last character of the Fontaine patch cycle, and any further addition to the cast will come in Natlan a cast that players are almost entirely unfamiliar with.

Only a few days ago, Ubisoft revealed gameplay for *********'s Creed: Shadows during Summer Game Fest 2024, giving us an early peak at what's to expect from the latest entry in the stealth action series. But even earlier than that, we were able to put a few questions to associate game director Simon Lemay-Comtois. One of the more interesting aspects of *********'s Creed: Shadows is the ability to swap between two entirely distinct characters: Yasuke and Naoe. Questions on how this will work, and what efforts have been made to encourage swapping between the two, were met with interesting answers which you can find below. "We were really interested in this idea to commiting to whatever build that you have" Comtois states when asked about the decision to have two protagonists rather than the typical solo act. "So early on we were trying to say 'we know we want stealth, we know we want combat, but we don't want the players to be able to switch ****** nilly between those things'.

When I was a ****, one of my absolute favourite things to do on the PC was to mess around with a free virtual Felix - like the cat from the cat food adverts - who would roam around the Windows XP desktop, chasing ****** of string between program windows and curling up to take a nap on the taskbar. I have no idea where the game came from - a dream, perhaps - but 30 years later, I still think about it as a perfectly formed way to lose hours on the PC without actually doing anything.

Exotic Class items can have dozens of different powerful perk combinations. The best part is you don’t even need to do the Exotic mission once you’ve done it for the first time. Here’s the easiest way to farm any Exotic Class Item in Destiny 2, explained.How to farm Exotic Class Items in Destiny 2Before we ***** in, I will be heading into spoiler territory with this one, so consider yourself warned.

Exotic Class Items are a huge selling point of The Final Shape expansion in Destiny 2, but obtaining them isn’t as easy as you’d think, especially compared to some of the other Exotic gear found within the Pale Heart of the Traveler.There’s a secret mission called Dual Destiny that rewards an Exotic Class Item upon completion, and you can even run it repeatedly to get different rolls on your Hunter cloak, Titan mark, or Warlock bond.

Abyss is a very different type of map from what most VALORANT players are accustomed to, and now, players are discovering some unsavory exploits. Throughout the opening days of the new map, a new glitch has been discovered where Phoenix can use his ultimate ability to survive a lethal fall on the A site. This is a broken spot that can be exploited by the attacking team if Phoenix can time his ultimate correctly before hitting the ground—which would normally ***** an agent—allowing him to walk around the bottom of the map.

A recently launched Epic Games Store database may have leaked many unannounced PC games. The unofficial site, a SteamDB equivalent called EpicDB, is now offline, after visitors began compiling lists of what appeared to be secret game projects and sharing them online, bringing it to the attention of Epic Games. “We released an update so third-party tools can’t surface any new unpublished product titles from the Epic Games Store catalogue,” an Epic Games spokesperson told VGC.

I've probably spent more time playing 4X games than I have sleeping—I'm a bit of a fan. But I confess my enthusiasm for the genre has hit a plateau because it's become just a wee bit too conformist. Surprises are few and far between, with modern 4Xs struggling to escape the rules and settings established by their progenitors. Heart of the Machine, then, is just what the cyberneticist ordered: A weird, unconventional 4X that puts you in the role of a newly-awakened sentient AI... Read more.View the full article
Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge An unofficial site tracking titles in the Epic Games library may have just leaked a ton of upcoming games, as reported earlier by Wccftech. The site, called EpicDB, was taken offline shortly after it posted information scraped from the Epic Games Store catalog on Monday, but that didn’t stop people from scanning the list and posting their findings. You can see the list of games from publishers like Bethesda, *****, Sony, Square Enix, and others in a series of screenshots posted by a user on a ResetEra forum. While some, like Turok, are easy to spot, others are listed under previously rumored codenames, such as “Parkside” or BioShock 4. There are still other titles under codenames we haven’t heard about. Some users speculate that “Momo”... Continue reading… View the full article
