In one of your earliest quests out of the bunker in Escape From Duckov, Jeff sends you off to kill and loot a couple Rampaging Scavengers: “the red ones with butcher knives.” It’s a straightforward description, and the little suckers are hard to forget if you’ve encountered them. They aren’t hanging around as random spawns…
It’s not immediately obvious how to save in Bloodliness 2, and boy it sucks (in the not fun vampire way) to lose your progress in a lengthy RPG. Even knowing that Bloodlines 2 was pivoting to a more action game style, it’s not the save system I expected, so fear not if you’re scratching your…
Battlefield Studios has followed through on its plan to discourage XP farming servers in Battlefield 6. As of this morning, many servers advertising themselves as “XP farms” or “all bots” have had their XP privileges taken away—you can still play on them, but you’ll only earn a pittance of precious experience. Some noticed the XP…
Since its launch in 2023, Starfield has cemented a reputation as Bethesda’s okayest game. While Skyrim has been honored with what felt like 800 re-releases and Fallout’s enjoying its time in the TV adaptation spotlight, Starfield hasn’t managed to foster the same level of fondness—even with Bethesda leaving sneaky little teasers in its spacefaring RPG’s…
Our annual Top 100 games list was published this week—a monumental undertaking that involved more than 30 writers and editors debating, discussing, pleading and even putting on presentations to sway colleagues. We are very tired. But that might also have something to do with the fact that we spend so much time playing massive RPGs…
Things are not going well for Payday 3 but, conversely, Payday 2 has never looked in ruder health. Payday 3 launched in 2023 and has struggled to find anything like the audience of its predecessor: at the time of writing SteamDB shows just over 500 players on 3, while around 27,000 are on its 12…
The best gaming laptop can mean different things to different people, but it’s something we spend a lot of time thinking about and testing ourselves on PC Gamer. In fact, of all the hundreds of products we prod, poke, and benchmark throughout the year, gaming laptops make up around 10% of the total we test….
After less than a month on top, the Razer Wolverine V3 Pro has been dethroned as the best high end controller for PC gaming. That’s because the Razer Wolverine V3 Pro 8K PC came out and won the tussle of the controllers. The Wolverine V3 Pro 8K PC takes what we like about the standard…
The MEG Z890 Ace is one of MSI’s most expensive Intel LGA 1851 motherboards around. It’s not the absolute priciest, as that honour goes to the $1,000 Z890 Godlike. But while the Ace is half the cost, it still sports a very steep price tag for a mere motherboard. So what exactly are you getting…
As a great duck once said: the better part of valor is quacking back off where you came from. Especially poignant advice for the latest hot extraction shooter because it’s actually way easier to extract in Escape From Duckov than you’ll initially realize. I won’t bury the lede here: you can extract in Duckov by…
