Midway through the Hebeth mission in Doom: The Dark Ages, you’ll find a door blocked by fire shooting out of some broken pipes. Curious treasure hunters will want to know what’s inside, but it’s easy to overlook when you’re racing from one fight to the next—this is one problem you can’t solve with a meaty…
While it serves as your initial lesson in demon slaying, Doom: The Dark Ages‘ first mission doesn’t hold back when it comes to bits and bobs to find.

The cunning beasts are marching closer to Super Earth than ever before. Players suspect the latest offensive will culminate in a…
A new item in Marvel Rivals’ latest event has broken the idea many players had about its ranked mode—namely that it’s an accurate way to measure your skill at the game. One loss is no longer necessarily weighed the same as another: The Galacta’s Gift event lets you earn up to eight free Chrono Shield…
