A reliable source in the Genshin Impact community has stated that, contrary to earlier rumors, Version 5.8 will feature no new characters. Genshin Impact tends to release 17 characters per patch cycle. While this isn't an official rule, it has been true since the launch of Inazuma in Version 2.0. Assuming Aloy counts as playable, Inazuma, Sumeru, and Fontaine all had exactly 17 characters spread throughout the game's updates. View the full article

Civilization 7 is caught between two warring sensibilities. Since 1991, it's been a historical 4X game, and players naturally expect that it not only honors but attempts to capture and recreate real events - or at least the essence of certain periods. It's also Civilization 7. Firaxis has nailed the formula, but after 34 years, I'd imagine even the most cast-iron fans are ready for a major reinvention. This, surely, is why we have the controversial Ages system, which slashes micromanagement and allows for a more playful mixing of leaders, abilities, and civs. But given the response to Civilization 7 so far, it's perhaps an overcorrection. Enter Ara History Untold. With a new DLC on the way, it could be the 4X game to balance historical accuracy with more inventive, fantastical alternative modes. Read the rest of the story...

As a mini gaming PC fan, I've always been fond of the idea of using an eGPU, but they've usually been too clunky or slow to make them a practical option. This new Asus ROG XG Station 3 eGPU dock, however, might just be enough to change my mind. This model, unveiled for the first time at Computex 2025, comes with a brand new design and much faster Thunderbolt 5 speeds, along with some interesting benchmark data. This Asus dock, which at first glance looks a lot like a Puddle Jumper from Stargate, supports cards with power demands of up to 1,000W, meaning you can easily power the best graphics card options with it, including the RTX 5090, although the most powerful cards will require a power supply upgrade. It also supports the Asus GC-HPWR connector, meaning no cables are needed - it's a slot-in-and-go scenario, as long as you have an Asus graphics card that supports the upgraded BTF connector.

Following on from its triumph with the Radeon RX 9070 XT, AMD has entered Computex with all guns blazing for its latest GPU launch. The new AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB will apparently cost just $349, a massive $70 less than the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB. Not only that, but AMD says the 8GB version will match the price of the new RTX 5060. There's just one problem with these prices - I don't believe them. I was blown away by the last AMD GPU launch in my Radeon RX 9070 XT review. With its $599 MSRP, 16GB of VRAM, FSR 4 support, and awesome performance, it was easily the best graphics card in its league, putting the $549 RTX 5070 to shame. Read the rest of the story...

David Gaider wants to make a new RPG and, with credits that include the original Baldur's Gate games, Dragon Age: Origins through Inquisition, and Star Wars: The Old Republic, it's no secret as to why. Gaider's writing has launched franchises, paved the way for the romance systems we see in games like Baldur's Gate 3 and, in many ways, changed the way that we approach narrative-focused videogames. But before we get another big RPG, there's Malys, an "unholy roguelike deckbuilder" that oozes high gothic elegance. Cast as Noah, a former priest turned exorcist, your job is to hunt down the titular ****** and bring about its end in the most bloody way possible. It's a marked shift in tone from Summerfall Studios' first game, Stray Gods, but it doesn't skimp on style. Read the rest of the story...

Summer is fast approaching, which means it’s time for Warhammer Skulls. The ultimate showcase of Warhammer video games is back for its ninth year, hosted for the third time by actor and superfan Rahul Kohli. There will be world premieres, exclusive reveals, and update announcements, and you can watch it all live. Showcase Date, Time, and Where to Watch The festivities will begin on May 22 at 5:00 p.m. BST, which means 12:00 p.m. Eastern / 11: 00 a.m. Central / 9:00 a.m. Pacific. You can see times for other regions in the graphic at the bottom of this page. IGN will livestream the full event, which will be around 50 minutes long. You can tune in on any of these channels: [Hidden Content] (our homepage) IGN’s Facebook IGN’s Twitter IGN’s Twitch IGN’s YouTube If you’re not able to watch the showcase live, no worries. We’ll post the whole event on YouTube after it’s finished, like we did for last year’s show. What to Expect from This Year’s Showcase As usual, this year’s showcase will feature exciting world premieres, reveals, and updates for several games. You can count on updates for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, since we know Patch 8 and Horde Mode (or whatever it ends up officially being called) are on the horizon. Publisher Focus Entertainment previously gave an overview of Horde Mode, saying you can play with three players (or bots replacing the other players) and that the map will be in Kadaku. However, we don’t have a release date or know everything else that’s coming in Patch 8. That’s the game we can be most confident in being part of the show, but there are several others that should be in line for updates and new info too. There’s Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus II, which was announced with a trailer at last year’s Warhammer Skulls. There’s Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, which as of December is now available on PS5 in addition to Xbox Series X/S and PC. Now that it’s established itself across platforms, there will be new content coming. We know there’s DLC coming for Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, but so far only know it’s planned to release in the summer. And there are plenty of other games that could see updates or new content — like Total War: Warhammer 3, Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus, Warhammer: Vermintide 2, Warhammer 40,000: Warpforge, and Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector. Plus, there’s sure to be brand-new premieres and announcements nobody could predict. On top of all that, the showcase on May 22 also marks the beginning of a week-long celebration with marked down prices and freebies. During that week, you can get up to 90% off Warhammer titles, and there will be new content, DLCs, and free updates across several platforms, including Steam, Xbox, PlayStation, Epic Games Store, Microsoft Store, GOG, and Geforce Now.

One of Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time's most important mechanics is its Life system. Lives, also known as professions, let you choose classes that help you gather resources, craft objects, and hunt monsters more easily. They all have specialties, and thus, they have their pros and cons. This begs the question—are some Lives better than others? Which one should you choose first? Let's dive into which Life you should pick first in Fantasy Life i, alongside a complete breakdown of each option and their features. Table of contentsBest starting life in Fantasy Life iAll Fantasy Life i lives explainedPaladinMercenaryHunterMagicianMinerWoodcutterAnglerFarmerCookBlacksmithCarpenterTailorAlchemistArtistCan you change lives in Fantasy Life i?Best starting life in Fantasy Life i The best starting life to choose in Fantasy Life i will depend largely on your preferred playstyle. Generally speaking, though, your best bet is to pick a Combat Life to start before diving deeper into Gathering and Crafting Lives. Most of your playthrough will depend on slaying monsters for resources, gathering materials from the world, and transforming them into refined goods through crafting. Combat Lives are great stepping stones for this, as they'll help introduce you to the game's combat systems and make the main storyline's progression feel more natural before transitioning over to Gathering and Crafting later. That said, picking Magician, Mercenary, Hunter, or Paladin depends on what attack style you feel more comfortable using. If you like casting spells, Magician will be your go-to choice. Paladin or Mercenary are your best bet if you want to slice and dice your enemies from close range. You'll eventually unlock every Life throughout Fantasy Life i's story, making your starting one more of an introduction to the mechanic than anything. Nonetheless, let's discuss each Life in detail so you know what to expect before trying it out. All Fantasy Life i lives explainedPaladin Screenshot by Destructoid Paladin is a standard sword and shield-wielding warrior who protects the innocent and defeats those who threaten the lives of others. If you want to slash enemies while also having a shield as a defensive measure, Paladin is the way to go. Mercenary Screenshot by Destructoid Our second melee option is Mercenary, a greatsword-wielding lone wolf that inflicts massive damage to enemies at the cost of slower attack speeds. If you can outmaneuver your enemies and land some hits despite slower movement, the Mercenary may be a fun alternative for you. Hunter Screenshot by Destructoid If you prefer long-range attacks, Hunter is your first option to pick. With a bow and arrows in hand, you can easily poison and paralyze your foes, setting up combos for any Paladin, Mercenary, or Magician friends you may have by your side. Since Hunters are weaker defensively than the previous two options, knowing how to avoid attacks is the key to surviving with this Life. Magician Screenshot by Destructoid Our last Combat Life option is Magician. With a wand equipped and long-range elemental abilities at your disposal, your only downside is your lack of defenses that enemies can exploit. Over time, you'll unlock elemental spells that you can swap between depending on an enemy's weaknesses, or utility spells to heal yourself and others. Miner Screenshot by Destructoid Miner is our first Gathering Life in this list. If you want to spend more time underground mining for precious minerals than above ground slaying enemies, this is a great option to pick. Miner pairs particularly well with the Blacksmith Life, letting you acquire ores as raw resources before transforming them into weapons and armor later. Woodcutter Screenshot by Destructoid Chopping down trees is one of the best ways to get into Carpentry so you can make some furniture. If this is your goal, the Woodcutter Life is the option to choose. With an axe in hand and a world full of trees, the Woodcutter's job is to cut down trees, which you can refine later if you combine this with the Carpenter Life. Angler Screenshot by Destructoid Next up is Angler, whose main focus is fishing. Your goal is to fish to your heart's content so you can acquire the rarest fish in the world and eventually transition into Cooking. You'll even get to try out Fantasy Life i's special fishing minigame, which can easily turn into hours of relaxation if you clear your mind and focus on grinding this profession. Farmer Farmer is one of two Lives in Fantasy Life i that require advancing through the game's main storyline questline before you can unlock it. You'll gain access to this Life after completing The Polturnip and The Leafe. Once you finish this quest, you can return to the Guild Office to change into the Farmer Life, letting you plant crops and use them in cooking. Cook Screenshot by Destructoid They say the way to someone's heart is through their stomach. By far, the best way to test this is by trying out our first Crafting Life on this list and becoming a Cook. Using resources gathered through farming and fishing, you can make delicious meals that you can sell or eat for stat boosts. Blacksmith Screenshot by Destructoid The Blacksmith is one of the most important Crafting Lives you'll experience in Fantasy Life i. Using the Blacksmith's abilities, you can craft armor, weapons, and tools to help improve your other Lives. If your equipment is old and needs some upgrades, changing into a Blacksmith and using ores you acquire from the Miner Life is the way to go. Carpenter Screenshot by Destructoid Remember when I mentioned the Woodcutter's affinity with the Carpentry Life? The Carpenter life is all about making furniture, from chairs and tables to weapons and tools. If you like interior design and want to make any wood-related object, including entire houses, this class is for you. Tailor Screenshot by Destructoid It's time to get our Fashion Life i side going with the Tailor Life. While many of the Tailor's clothes are purely for fun, fashionable moments, you can also make armor for yourself and others, giving this class some much-needed utility alongside the rest. Alchemist Screenshot by Destructoid The Alchemist is an interesting Life, turning various materials you find around the world into potions, flasks, and even bombs you can use in battle. The Alchemist Life is perfect for anyone looking for some chaos. Artist The Artist is the second class that requires advancing through Fantasy Life i's main story missions. After completing The Artist's Treasure Hunt during Chapter five, you can head back to the Guild Office to receive an Artist's License, giving you free rein to practice this Life and create some beautiful artwork. Can you change lives in Fantasy Life i? Yes, you can change your character's Life shortly after picking your first option. After picking your first option and completing some main story missions and personal quests to familiarize yourself with the mechanic, you'll eventually return to the Guild Office, letting you talk to Auntie Anne to change your Life. Screenshot by Destructoid The only requirement you need to acquire a new Life license is reaching Fledgling with your initial class. After reaching Fledging in your starting class and progressing through the main story, return to Auntie Anne to change your Life for no extra cost. From here, you'll need to advance to Fledging to acquire a third Life, and so on. You can also swap freely between them once you acquire extra licenses from Auntie Anne. You can switch Lives by opening your main menu, picking Life, and choosing whichever options you've unlocked. However, even though it doesn't cost extra money to access them, you will need to complete enough guild quests to Fledging with each Life before receiving a license for a new one. In short, you won't unlock every option in your first hour of playing, but you can obtain them all with enough patience and dedication to questing.
