Baldur's Gate 3 has revealed a first look at what players can expect from Patch #7, and the key additions happen to be improved evil endings, as well as the launch of the game's official modding tools. Despite releasing in a stacked year defined by several major titles, Baldur's Gate 3 made history by winning Game of the Year at every major awards show. It brought the isometric RPG genre to a mainstream audience, and succeeded in living up to the tremendous legacy of Baldur's Gate 2. View the full article
Helldivers 2 players have managed to successfully defend against the Automaton invasion, so Super Earth (and the devs) are sending players to the other side of the galaxy and giving them a huge task to accomplish. The latest Major Order delivered to players this morning tasks the Helldivers with eradicating two billion Terminid bugs. This must be completed by Wednesday, April 23, although the Helldiver fleet is already well on their way to accomplishing that goal. View the full article
Larian Studios may have disappointed some players with the shock announcement its work with the Dungeons & Dragons franchise was over—but it certainly has something up its sleeve. Baldur’s Gate 3 won a plethora of accolades, becoming the first game to secure five major Game of the Year awards, but Larian Studios will not be making any DLC, nor will it take the reins on a sequel.

The next step in Helldivers 2’s ongoing Galactic War is here, and it’s just about the most straightforward yet: ***** bugs. Lots of bugs. Two billion to be exact. After the PC and PlayStation 5 co-op shooter’s community successfully completed a Major Order to slow a significant Automaton invasion, Game Master Joel has turned players’ attention to the Terminid front with the biggest ***** order since the game’s explosive launch in February. Helldivers 2 players now have just under six days to ***** two billion Terminids. That sounds like a lot, but at the time of this article’s publication, with five days and 20 hours left to complete the major order, players had already hit 19.6% completion. That is, over 391 million bugs had already bit the dust. Based on this initial progress, it seems the community will complete the Major Order sooner rather than later. Has Joel underestimated the community’s willingness to come together to ***** up bugs? That seems unlikely. Perhaps Joel had decided to let the Helldivers 2 community ***** off some steam with an easygoing Major Order after what was a somewhat grueling battle against the Automatons and those pesky Factory Striders. Or perhaps Joel will pull a level and surprise us all by increasing the ***** count in response to our rapid progress. With Helldivers 2’s meta narrative, you never can tell what’s next. Speaking of the meta narrative, the in-universe explanation for this major order is worth highlighting. Super Earth has said the Automaton invasion has slowed, and that it must now take this chance to refill its E-710 reserves in order to stage a counter offensive. What’s Element-710? A precious resource Super Earth farms the bugs for. Perhaps read E-710 upside down if you’re wondering what Arrowhead is getting at here. Wesley is the *** News Editor for IGN.

Baldur's Gate 3 developer Larian isn’t doing any DLC for the game, or a Baldur’s Gate 4, or anything to do with D&D in the near future. We know that. It's, uh, far too busy teasing the mysterious new things it is actually working on, and casually announcing that more stuff's going to be added to BG3 soon. Don't get your hopes up too much though, it'll be a while until we actually see those new things, especially the "very big RPG that will rule them all" that Swen Vincke's previously hyped up, which seems separate to what he's teasing this time. You know, much in the same way you'll have to wait to see what Wizards of the Coast will do with the Baldur's Gate IP going forwards. In its latest community update, number 26, Larian does a bit of BAFTA reflecting, lets us all know what the main headlines of the upcoming patch 7 for BG3 will be, and teases its future. ******, three birds, one stone - you can see why the studio netted pretty much every GOTY award known to man. After confirming that it won't be doing the stuff I mentioned it won't be right at the start of this article, the update offers a fun little statement from Larian founder Swen Vincke about what the studio's currently working on.

Helldivers 2 is already known for pushing out a substantial amount of updates since its launch in February 2024, but developer Arrowhead Studios clarified why it can't push out even more with an excellent explanation. Ever since Super Earth's war against the Terminids and Automatons exploded in popularity, the Helldivers 2 community has enjoyed a steady stream of patches that both add new content to the game and fix any bugs plaguing the experience. It'd be unreasonable to expect any more from Arrowhead but for those who do want extra updates, it'd be unfair to make such demands. View the full article
Very rarely, League of Legends champions are banned for no reason. But this seems to be the case in Patch 14.8, where one classic AD carry has an almost 50 percent win rate, with players claiming they can’t stand him. At the time of writing, the most-hated champ in League seems to be Draven, who has a gargantuan 46.1 percent ban rate in Emerald+ rankings, [Hidden Content]. This number rises to 56 percent in Diamond and above. But he’s not specifically in the meta right now, which sparked a discussion on Reddit on April 18. It turns out it’s a personal grudge since players just dislike him. View the full article

The wasteland is a large and desolate place, full of horrors beyond the comprehension of the modern mind.

How to wait in Fallout 3 and New VegasWaiting is a necessary part of anyone’s life. As they say, good things come to those who wait.

Stardew Valley may be a game about living a fulfilling life through honest work and making friends, but one dedicated fan is more interested in spending some time looking after the ***** with an impressive mod that fleshes out Pelican Town's *********. Ever since ConcernedApe's excellent farming RPG launched, the central town has played host to a strange graveyard that only features in a handful of events. While it may be spooky, it does stand out as an oddly non-interactive element in a game that's usually filled with secrets to discover. View the full article
Following 2023's Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, the second movie in the rebooted live-action Transformers continuity, Paramount Pictures has Transformers One almost ready and next in line, and its first trailer has finally arrived. While Transformers has never left the animated medium behind, One will be the first animated movie in the series to hit theaters in nearly 40 years, so expectations are understandably high. It seems designed to please the most diehard fans who grew with the original series in the 1980s, but at the same time, it's got a modern style and youthful energy. As far as we know, Transformers One won't be connected (at least not directly) to the ongoing live-action efforts from Hasbro and Paramount, which include a just-announced Transformers & G.I. Joe crossover feature that was teased at the very end of the last installment of the former movie series. Before we get deeper into the details, check out the first trailer, which confirms the September 13, 2024, release date, below: Read more View the full article
