One of my favorite things about Souls games is that sometimes the best method for dealing with tragic, corrupted knights and primordial horrors is simply hitting them very hard with a large object. It’s an ideal embodied by the Raider, the subject of Bandai Namco’s latest Elden Ring: Nightreign character reveal trailer, who seems just…
The extraction shooter discourse has been dominated in recent days by Marathon, Bungie’s upcoming kick at the can, but there’s another game in the mix with the potential to steal its thunder: Arc Raiders, which PC Gamer’s Jake Tucker said in 2024 “could be the extraction shooter that finally brings the genre to the masses.”…
Somehow, the fantasy MMO Guild Wars is 20 years old: It launched in 2005 and it’s still ticking over today. That’s an impressive accomplishment by any measure, and ArenaNet isn’t letting the anniversary pass unnoticed. The studio has rolled out a new content update that makes a range of previously-inaccessible promotional items from the early…
There are two types of survival crafting players in every friend group: the ‘go kill things in a cave to supply the crew’ people and the ‘build the aesthetically pleasing base for everyone to live in’ people. Because I am one of the latter, the first thing I have noticed about RuneScape: Dragonwilds as it…
Baldur’s Gate 3’s Patch 8 arrived today, and Larian’s last major update risks sending us all back into a fresh Faerun frenzy more than a year and a half after release. Its flashiest additions are the suite of new subclasses, but there’s one new spell that promises to become a fast favorite for any melee…
Jagex has launched its open world survival crafting game, RuneScape: Dragonwilds, into early access, even though it was only shown for the first time on March 31. Ahead of its release, a developer update livestream was scheduled to share some more details on the game, including its coveted release date, but little did we know…
Overwatch 2 Stadium is a refreshing break from what I’ve come to expect from Overwatch. It’s done away with the standard matches in favour of a best-of-seven rounds type deal with smaller objective points, maps, and timings, so matches really don’t take too long. But the best part of this new mode by far has…
Saber and Focus promised in March that the announcement of Space Marine 3 did not spell the end of Space Marine 2, and that in fact “more awesome content” for Space Marine 2 is still in the works. And here we are, as promised: The Trygon Update, with a new PvE mission, boss fight, and…
AMD and Intel have taken very different approaches to increasing the core counts of their processors. In the case of Team Red and its Ryzen CPUs, it went down a chiplet route, putting a block of cores and cache into one tiny chip, that can be easily doubled or more to get extra cores. Intel,…
Normally the launch of a new graphics card would be a wholly joyous affair, especially a more affordable one like the RTX 5060 Ti—GPUs for the masses and whatnot. This time, however, despite the siren song of affordable graphics cards, the rocks we’re heading towards have ‘may or may not be actually available at MSRP’…
