Subnautica 2 will seemingly be self-published by Unknown Worlds Entertainment, as any mention of Krafton has been removed from the game's Steam and Epic Games Store pages as of this writing. Although Krafton still owns Unknown World Entertainment, Krafton's removal from the Subnautica 2 store listings is likely part of the fallout of a legal battle involving the two companies.

REPLACED is now available on PC and Xbox consoles, and you can take advantage of the graphics if you're on the former platform. The general visual performance is pretty good, and I didn't encounter any stutters as such. However, you can still tweak the settings to get the best possible performance specific to your system. This guide will help you figure out the best tweaks if you're playing on a PC that's close to the minimum requirements. Best REPLACED graphics settings Before I deep dive into the settings, here are the details of my current setup. NVIDIA RTX 3060 12 GB16 GB of DDR5 RAMAMD Ryzen 5600G Incidentally, REPLACED doesn't have a recommended set of settings on its Steam page. However, my system is well above the minimum requirements. Let's look at the current visual settings that I am using for my adventure. Screen Mode: Borderless. However, you can use Full Screen (I use Borderless since I have a multi-screen setup)Resolution: 1920x1080 (Default)FPS Limit: 120VSync: Off There are no advanced visual settings that you can tweak, and ideally, the game doesn't have a heavy set of hardware requirements. Screenshot by Destructoid I kept VSync off because there are certain areas where I experienced minor stutters. When I turned it off, the stutters disappeared. There could have been other factors at play, but so far, it's been good since Vsync went off. For my system, 120 FPS seems pretty stable, but I won't go limitless. If your system is struggling, you can set the cap lower. The lowest limit is at 30 FPS, which will be perfect if you are on a relatively weaker setup. That way, you'll be able to keep the stutters away while enjoying the game. That's more or less all the things you need to know to get the best visual performance in REPLACED, irrespective of the quality of your PC hardware.

Hasbro's Marvel Legends line may focus mostly on delivering figures based on Marvel's comic book, film, and TV projects, but sometimes they branch out into games as well. And given the massive popularity of the hero shooter Marvel Rivals, it should come as no surprise that the company is revealing a wave of Marvel Legends figures based on that game. Check out the slideshow gallery below for a closer look at Hasbro's Marvel Legends Series: Marvel Rivals figures: As you can see, these new figures are a bit of a stylistic departure from the usual Marvel Legends format, mimicking the extremely muscular and stylized character designs the game is known for. And, of course, Jeff the Land Shark is one of the characters who made the cut. This wave of figures includes: Moon KnightPunisherSpider-Man & Luna Snow 2-PackVenom & Jeff the Land Shark 2-Pack All of these Marvel Rivals figures will be released in Fall 2026. Preorders will be staggered over the next several weeks, with preorder links going live on Hasbro Pulse and other websites between April 22 and May 13, depending on the figure. Obviously, this lineup barely scratches the surface of the massive character roster in the game. Which hero or villain do you most want to see as a figure? Let us know in the comments below. Previously, Hasbro released a series of Marvel Gamerverse figures inspired by the Marvel vs. Capcom series. In other Marvel Rivals news, the developer confirmed that a Nintendo Switch 2 version is in the works. Don't expect any original characters to be added to the game, though, as there are simply too many Marvel characters to cover first. Jesse is a mild-mannered staff writer for IGN.

LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is pulling from everything in the world of Batman: the movies, the 1960's TV show, and of course the comics. Today, WB Games has revealed the LEGO Batman version of the Batsuit from Gotham by Gaslight, the beloved steampunk-themed Elsewords comic from 1989. The hugely popular steampunk-era Batman comic pit Batman circa-1889 against Jack the Ripper. The LEGO version of this era-appropriate Batsuit is, as you can see in the trailer below, a bit more playful than the dark tone of that comic, in keeping with the LEGO theme. Check out IGN's hands-on impressions of Legacy of the Dark Knight, plus 31 minutes of gameplay. LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight will be released on all platforms on May 22.

A few weeks ago, a relatively large Arc Raiders update added a new Arc enemy, new inventory management tools, and a new map modifier to the game to tide players over until the next map arrives. However, the patch has caused the game to ****** regularly for a lot of players, sometimes in the middle of a raid. While it's usually easy enough to jump back into an active round, crashing is still pretty annoying. Read the rest of the story...

Razer's back with the latest update to its long-running Viper gaming mouse series. Its symmetrical shape has been a favorite of many gamers for many years, and that core shape is retained here, but now the Viper is lighter, faster, and longer-lasting than ever before, and it adds up to the Razer Viper V4 Pro being a truly great gaming mouse. So great is it, in fact, that Razer's latest leaps to the top of our best gaming mouse guide as the single mouse I'd recommend above all others. If you aren't into the lightweight mouse thing, and prefer a gaming mouse with more buttons, this won't be the one for you. However, if performance, looks, and longevity matter to you, it's fantastic, though not without some issues. Hint: if you're not a fan of loud, clicky keyboards, you might not have the ears for this mouse.[site_jumplinks] Read the rest of the story...

20th Century Studios has snagged the rights to make a movie based on hit Roblox game 99 Nights in the Forest. 99 Nights in the Forest is the seventh most-played game of all time on Roblox despite being only about a year old. As you could probably guess from the title, it has a bit of a Five Nights at Freddy’s feel to it, forcing players to spend 99 nights in a haunted forest. During that time, players must defeat creatures that live in the woods and set out to save four lost children. The game currently has 26 billion lifetime visits and a 14.2 million all-time peak player count, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Hearing those numbers, it makes a lot of sense as to why 20th Century Studios decided to make it its first major foray into video game adaptations since Disney acquired the studio in 2019. No creatives or producers have been attached to the project yet beyond the game’s developers — Alex Kieft, Cameron Angland, and Matthew Hufton — who will serve as executive producers. “Growing up, Disney and 20th films were a huge part of our childhood, so collaborating with such legendary and enduring studios feels surreal,” the game’s creators said in a statement. “We’re excited to explore the world of 99 Nights in the Forest on a broader stage and to create some scares in an entirely new medium.” Lex Briscuso is a film and television critic and a freelance entertainment writer for IGN.
