Tracking down an anvil in Abiotic Factor is a task you’ll have to undertake if you want to construct a repair and salvage station for your worn-out gear. This is one of the first items in the game that actually gave me a little trouble; since they are quite rare early on, you’ll only find…
After wrapping things up in the Office Sector, it’s time to head out to Manufacturing West and repair parts around the Synchrotron. You’ll need to get an Optic Lens to make it beyond Abiotic Factor’s second zone—it’s one of three pieces required to open the path to Cascade Laboratories. Fortunately, it’s not left up to…

The Half-Life-inspired survival adventure teases your scientist with loot drops out in plain sight, but you can’t open them for quite a while. I mean a mid-to-late…

Hellraiser’s twisted puzzle box has spawned a whopping 11 films, loads of comics and a TV show is on the way (allegedly). But until now, videogames have been left out—with the exception of main antagonist Pinhead’s appearance in Dead By Daylight. Thanks to Saber Interactive, that’s about to change. Saber’s just unveiled Hellraiser: Revival (or…
