Swapping weapons, reloading, healing, and climbing, most things in Arc Raiders take a hell of a lot of time to do. Nowhere is this clearer than when you’re carrying the crates required to open and loot Field Depots, which you’ll have to slowly lug across the map with no access to your guns. This annoying…
In the ongoing struggle to play Bloodborne on PC, PlayStation 4 emulator ShadPS4 is cleaving a path in the right direction as its most recent update (version 0.12.6) significantly boosts its performance and is more accessible for those with weaker hardware. Granted, setting up the emulation in the first place is not a simple task…
Open world online racer The Crew was recently resurrected by a team of enthusiast developers after its original developer Ubisoft wrote it off last year. But it turns out The Crew Unlimited was on course to return to the scrapyard relatively soon, had its new pit crew not nixed a peculiar bug that recalls the…
Lurking in the shadows. With just one week to go before Assassin’s Creed Shadows arrives on Switch 2, Ubisoft has updated the game’s eShop page with some noteworthy details to keep in mind before you buy. Like, for example, the dreaded file size. According to the updated listing, Shadows will take up a beefy 62.8…
Is there a single games company that cultivates the kind of hushed, awed whispers that Valve does? As a private company, Gabe Newell’s baby doesn’t have to concern itself with putting out all the information that companies with masses of shareholders have to. And yet, it pretty much props up all of PC gaming with…
Arc Raiders players are generally a friendly bunch, especially for an extraction shooter. It’s odd, really, that over half of the game’s population on Steam has barely engaged in PvP, and 18% have never even knocked out a raider. Just think of all the loot they could be carrying. Maybe they’ve even got one of…
Riding high? Kirby and his warp star are back in business thanks to Kirby Air Riders, and we imagine a lot of you have been racing through the sky (and the “city”) to unlock absolutely everything this past weekend. The surprise sequel to the under-appreciated GameCube racer Kirby Air Ride has performed much better than…
Dan Houser, Rockstar games co-founder and one of the chief creative forces that transformed Grand Theft Auto into an unstoppable financial juggernaut, reckons that there’s “always that danger” that the games industry will become “overly focussed on making money.” Speaking on Channel 4’s Sunday Brunch to promote his recently released novel (via GamesRadar), Houser was…
Rory Norris, Guides Writer (Image credit: Future) Last week I was: teaming up with players in Arc Raiders, and blasting the mean ones. This week I’ve been: clearing out my stash and filling it up just as quickly by engaging in more PvP. I’ve praised Arc Raiders a lot since launch, perhaps above all else…
Tower of Fantasy is an interesting one: a mashup of gacha and MMO, all of the random monetisation bullshit, plus expecting you to *shudder* work together with strangers. Despite being a sicko for both genres, I’d never dare put them together in a single experience—like the two friend groups you very carefully plan individual events…
