What's your favorite videogame level? There's Titanfall 2's time travel in Effect and Cause, Dishonored 2's mechanical house in The Clockwork Mansion, or Count Razoff's sprawling home in Rayman 3's The Bog of Murk. In each and every one of those examples, the gameplay and visuals work in perfect unison, meaning that they've stuck in my brain all these years later. Lucky me, then, because New Blood Interactive has just shown off Ultrakill's next level, Layer 8 - Fraud, and it looks like a chaotic mix of my favorites. Read the rest of the story...

If you're in the market for a new PC controller, but don't want to settle for another wireless Xbox pad, you can instead grab the all-singing, all-dancing PlayStation DualSense Edge and save $30, if you're quick. In our PlayStation DualSense review, we heaped praise upon the adaptive triggers, integrated touchpad, and general comfort. We even consider it the best PC controller for immersive gaming experiences, but the DualSense Edge takes this up to 11, for a price. Thankfully, this deal on Amazon takes that price down by $30, making it a more affordable upgrade. Read the rest of the story...

What are the Stellar Blade system requirements? This PS5 action-adventure game is finally coming to PC, but despite some impressive graphics, the Stellar Blade minimum and recommended specs are very reasonable. You won't need the best graphics card to run Stellar Blade on PC. In fact, based on what we've seen so far in the Stellar Blade demo, the game also runs great on gaming handhelds such as the Steam Deck. This should come as no surprise, given that it was a target set by developer Shift Up in its most recent business report. Read the rest of the story...

The mold. Blue Umbrella. Chris Redfield. Ethan and Mia Winters. The Baker family. Doppelgangers. Vampires. Werewolves. Dragons. A guy who can control metal using his mind. The telepathic little girl who's actually an old woman. Living dolls. A Jigsaw-style serial killer. Insect people. First-person. Third-person. DLC. Online modes. Gold editions. Between RE7 and RE8, the fictional world of the mainline Resident Evil games has become more bloated and indecipherable than ever before. You might admire the imagination and creative liberty here, Capcom's willing to run with even the most tangential ideas, but the series that solidified survival horror as a genre has lost its identity. Ignoring crude nostalgia, there's a reason so many people like Resident Evil 2 Remake: it's simple and it's grounded. Resident Evil 9, or rather Requiem, seems more contained than Village, the nadir of the series, but there are early warning signs in that first trailer. Read the rest of the story...

As soon as Hitman devs IO Interactive were revealed to be making a Bond game, I was on board with it. Agent 47 and 007 have a bunch in common, at least in terms of the sneaky, shooty, or stabby stuff their jobs entail, so IO'd be putting a fresh twist on a kind of game it's already proven great at making. There is a difference though, and having killed Le Chiffre in Hitman over the weekend, I feel like I understand it better than before. IO exec Hakan Abrak has offered his view on how 007: First Light's Bond will play differently to 47 in an interview with IGN, which I'm glad to see also saw him emphasise that the studio aren't done with the Hitman series.

Daigo's corruption is attempting to take over the island, and it's up to you to stop him in Fortnite. One of the primary ways you can combat this issue is by finding and damaging both Overlord Spires and Scout Spires. These special Spires present pretty daunting combat challenges for you to tackle. Interacting with them is essential for various quests, and they also offer some fairly solid rewards for your efforts. Here's how to find and damage Overlord Spires and Scout Spires in Fortnite. Table of contentsWhere to find Overlord Spires in FortniteWhere to find Scout Spires in FortniteHow to damage Overlord Spires in FortniteHow to damage Scout Spires in FortniteWhat do Overlord Spires and Scout Spires drop in Fortnite?Where to find Overlord Spires in Fortnite Screenshot by Destructoid. Remix by Destructoid Only one Overlord Spire appears on the island in each match, and it's marked on the map by a large white diamond-like icon surrounded by light purple mist. The precise location of the Overlord Spire varies in each round, so the only way to know where it's located is to check the map for it. The icon is easy to spot once you know what you're looking for. The Overlord Spire lands at the location marked on the map as soon as a player enters the nearby area. It might take a few seconds to fully land on the ground, but it always appears fairly quickly. Where to find Scout Spires in Fortnite Around five or so Scout Spires appear in each round, and they're all marked by a small diamond-like icon on the map. This icon is a similar shape to the Overlord Spire one, but a lot smaller. These ones also spawn randomly across the island in each round, so you need to check the map to track them down. How to damage Overlord Spires in Fortnite Overlord Spires are the more dangerous and deadly combat trials of the two, so never approach this challenge without a solid collection of loot to back you up. Once you're ready to take it on, focus on aiming for the glowing yellow spots on the Spire. These are weak points that drain the Spires' health much more quickly. Screenshot by Destructoid The Overlord Spire takes damage regardless of where you shoot at it, so just keep striking it with everything you've got until the health bar is depleted. It has a few protective measures you should watch out for, though, including a deadly laser that targets you and some ****** guards who spawn in and fight to protect it. Consider fighting it with friends or purchasing a hireable NPC if you need some help taking it down. How to damage Scout Spires in Fortnite Scout Spires can be damaged by attacking any part of them, although aiming for the face is the best way to deal lots of damage quickly. The face is a weak point, so any attacks you aim at it will drain the health bar more quickly. All Scout Spires are essentially smaller and weaker versions of the Overlord Spire, so if you've faced the latter, taking on these ones should be no challenge at all. These trials also have a laser attack, although it's much smaller, and ****** guards who will appear to defend it. What do Overlord Spires and Scout Spires drop in Fortnite? Screenshot by Destructoid The loot you get from Overlord Spires and Scout Spires generally varies in each match. Here's a breakdown of what types of items you can expect to earn for your efforts. Overlord Spires always drop one Unstable Exotic Weapon and also usually drop some Legendary weapons, Epic weapons, consumables, ammo, and gold bars. Scout Spires generally drop one Boon, some Epic weapons, ammo, and some consumables. There's plenty more to get done this season, so when you're done battling Spires, you might move on to work on acquiring the Wingshot Grappler or finding and opening the Suitcase of Patience.

Surprise! A new Call of Duty game is coming out in 2025. Not surprised? That's okay, nobody really is, but the fact that it's ****** Ops 7 directly after ****** Ops 6 is a bit surprising. This is the first consecutive release in the ****** Ops series, following in the footsteps of Modern Warfare III that launched directly after Modern Warfare II a couple years back. 2025's CoD iteration will be heading into the near-future of 2035, a big departure from BO6's setting of the early 1990s, so expect some big changes when it comes to weaponry, aesthetics, setting, and more. But those aren't the only differences we can expect. Here's everything we know so far about the latest CoD game, ****** Ops 7. Table of contentsEverything we know so far about BO7Treyarch and Raven team upDavid Mason, BO2 sequelCo-op campaign is back in ******Trippy butterfly mind tricksEvolved multiplayerZombies, Zombies, ZombiesBlackout comeback?Switch 2...maybeEverything we know so far about BO7https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUo5gnaYB_w&pp=ygUMY2FsbCBvZiBkdXR5Treyarch and Raven team up Treyarch continues its streak of seemingly never-ending CoD development along with its duo in Raven Software. ****** Ops 7 sees the two super-studios teaming up to co-lead development, along with a large number of other studios assisting in making the new title. David Mason, BO2 sequel The BO7 storyline will be a sequel to ****** Ops 2, set in a near-future where android robots and a company called The Guild are at the forefront of the plot, teasing the events to come in ****** Ops 3, which end up happening 30 years later. "Developed as the next evolution of ****** Ops, this is the first-ever consecutive release within the series, set more than 40 years after the events of ****** Ops 6," Activision said. "The year is 2035 and the world is on the brink of chaos, ravaged by violent conflict and psychological warfare following the events of ****** Ops 2 and ****** Ops 6. Wielding cutting-edge technology, David Mason and his team must fight back against a manipulative enemy who weaponizes fear above all else." BO7 brings the Hollywood power as Milo Ventimiglia stars as Mason, while Kiernan Shipka will play the antagonist Emma Kagen, and Michael Rooker returns as BO2 star Mike Harper. Co-op campaign is back in ****** A fan-favorite feature is finally back in BO7, allowing players to team up with friends to play the campaign in co-op. This used to be a franchise staple, and it's been scarce over the past few years, but it will be a welcome addition and change for those who like to squad up every chance they get. Trippy butterfly mind tricks Image via Activision In the debut trailer, we see Mason seemingly hallucinating a blue butterfly and Raul Menendez, the antagonist of BO2, who died at the end of the game in its canon ending. Someone, likely Kagen and The Guild, is playing with his mind, which has been a recurring theme throughout the ****** Ops franchise. Evolved multiplayer While nothing has been shown for BO7 multiplayer yet (that's coming later this summer), rumors have pointed to the game using an "evolved" version of BO6's omnimovement, now including wall-running and potentially wall-diving. Other rumors suggest that BO2 maps may be included and remade for BO7, similar to how MWIII used MW2 2009's maps as a base. Activision, thus far, has only said that players can "harness near-future weaponry in a signature multiplayer experience packed with brand-new maps." Zombies, Zombies, Zombies Screenshot by Destructoid A mysterious image at the end of the debut trailer shows everyone's favorite shambling undead. Zombies mode returns in BO7, with Activision describing it as the "next twisted chapter of Round-Based Zombies in the heart of the Dark Aether." Blackout comeback? Screenshot by Destructoid Another quick shot at the end of the debut trailer shows four players in wingsuits diving into what looks like Avalon, the long-rumored new battle royale map set in Europe. The wingsuits immediately evoke the imagery of the forgotten Blackout BR mode, which launched before Warzone alongside ****** Ops 4. A lot of Avalon is explorable in-game via going out of bounds on certain multiplayer maps, so it appears ready to take over as the next BR map. However, reliable leaker @TheGhostofHope has said that the tease is for the co-op campaign and that Avalon as a BR map has been scrapped and repurposed for the story mode. Switch 2...maybe Activision and Nintendo entered a 10-year agreement to bring CoD to the latter's platforms...but that was two years ago. And now, Switch 2 is not listed in BO7's current platforms. It's possible that it could come in the future, but for now, Nintendo gamers are still awaiting the franchise's arrival. For now, it's only been confirmed for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and on PC, Battle.net, Steam, and Xbox PC.

Weapons play a big role in Heian, a Roblox game inspired by Jujutsu Kaisen, where each one comes with a unique moveset and attack pattern. Whether you're just starting or looking to improve, understanding how different weapons work can give you a real edge in battle. Some are fast and flashy, while others hit hard and cover more ground.

If you can get your hands on the Paladin Greatsword or the Apparition, your early game should be much easier. When you start to understand how fighting and blocking work, you can move on to better weapons, such as the Mukurozan or Split Soul Katana, which are great and are not too hard to get. For the late game, we recommend only Meta weapons, such as the Wild Hunt and Inverted Spear of Heaven. That is all for our Heian Weapon tier list and guide. Check out our Heian Cursed Techniques Tier List and Heian Clan Tier List to find out which weapon goes best with them. Heian Weapon Tier List FAQsWhat is the best weapon in Heian? The best Weapons that players can acquire in Heian are Necrebellion, Inverted Spear of Heaven, and Wild Hunt. How to get weapons in Heian? Weapons can be acquired from defeating Bosses, doing Questlines, and crafting. How do I craft weapons in Heian? First, you need to unlock Weapon Crafting Recipes scattered through the map, and then collect enough resources to craft them at the Blacksmith.
