Completing the Shifting Earth: The Crater event in Elden Ring Nightreign is fairly challenging, but the reward is well worth it. If you delve into this mysterious volcano that appears in the north of Limveld, you’ll find the Special Smithing Table and be able to forge a legendary weapon, which is to say, upgrade any…
Wondering what Nightreign bosses you’ll get to fight in the new game? Since hearing that a selection of Dark Souls bosses were making an appearance in Elden Ring Nightreign, I was super excited to hop into an expedition and see who I’d come up against. Besides the eight main Nightlord bosses you can fight, I’ve…
Hell Clock is a roguelike that’s aiming to pack a Path of Exile league’s worth of build progression into a minutes-long run. It’s a compelling pitch, and based on the sheer density of unlockable, upgradeable mechanics and systems for carving through undead hordes I found in my time with a preview build, it’s making an…
It was a heavy loss in games journalism when Game Informer got kicked to the curb last fall, but it got over its own death pretty quickly when game dev and blockchain company Gunzilla financed its resurrection in March. A few projects were announced back then, including a return to print—but if you want to…
Lost Planet 2, Capcom’s sci-fi third-person shooter that’s a little like space Monster Hunter with mechs, massive aliens, and sweet, sweet T-ENG, has spent years in a purgatory of neglect. As one of the countless games left in a state of disrepair after Microsoft discontinued support for its universally despised Games for Windows Live, Lost…

For fans, it’s been like peering into an alternate reality where WoW stuck to its guns and never…
War Sails, the Mount and Blade 2: Bannerlord expansion announced in March, has been delayed. Instead of launching on June 17 as planned, developer TaleWorlds Entertainment says it’s now on track for release in early fall. “After taking a hard look at where things stand, it became clear we won’t be ready by the originally…
Final Fantasy 14 Patch 7.25 ushered in yet another Allied Society adventure, bringing us one step closer to completing Dawntrail’s sidequest series with two out of three planned for Tural now available. The FF14 Mamool Ja questline digs a little deeper into relations between Yak T’el’s villages, picking up where the region’s sidequests left off…
When it comes to shoulder pads, Warhammer 40,000 has always been hard to beat. The denizens of Games Workshop’s grimdark galaxy routinely wear pauldrons so massive they’d make Prince Arthas quiver in his boots. In the recent Space Marine 2 you could practically feel the weight of them on Titus as he heaved his beefy…
Ahhh, the swish of a scythe to gather the cut the grown crop, the hammering of wood as new abodes rise up in your burgeoning fiefdom, the cheery barks of workers as you assign them labour; Historically themed strategy games are one of the most enduring genres in PC gaming—from the isometric charms of Age…
