It’s a big day for The Blood of Dawnwalker, the upcoming vampiric RPG headed by The Witcher 3 game director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz and lead quest designer Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz. The release date was announced as part of today’s “Road to Launch” showcase, we got a (slightly) closer look at what the game has to offer, and…
Many Helldivers 2 fans weren’t thrilled to learn last week that Arrowhead is locking two new mechs behind the $10 Exo Experts warbond. It’s the first time the vehicle has seen any evolution in two years, and the decision to sell its flamethrowing and grenade-lobbing variants furthers a trend of all (not just some) new…
Today saw the release of s&box, the long-in-development successor to Garry’s mod that’s also open source and hopes to become a kind of Roblox for dads. There’s no denying the potential of this toolkit, nor the commendably generous principles behind why it’s been released in the way it has, but it does have one immediate…
Between getting beaten up by blister head zombies and running for dear life from The Girl, I spent a great deal of time, perhaps too much time, trying to figure out how the hell I could solve The Final Puzzle in Resident Evil Requiem. After hours and hours of staring at a bunch of numbers…
Visiting developer Rebel Wolves in Warsaw earlier this month, one of the first things that greeted me was its slogan, painted in big letters on the wall: “A studio born out of love for RPGs.” Its first game, The Blood of Dawnwalker, certainly fits the bill—a hugely ambitious sandbox in which half-human, half-vampire Coen must…
Ever since its first announcement in January last year, The Blood of Dawnwalker has looked extremely promising. An ambitious RPG from former The Witcher 3 devs is always going to catch our eye here at PC Gamer, and its vampiric twist—by day you’re a normal human, by night you’re a supernatural bloodsucker, and your approach…
Resident Evil Requiem offered up two protagonists, two ways of playing its horror game, and two perspectives, with the choice to switch between first and third person at any point throughout the game players could finally decide just how scary they wanted to make things. If I’m honest, I reluctantly did my first playthrough as…
Patch 7.5 for Final Fantasy 14 landed today, and with it a strange appearance in the inventories for some players: an adorable otter backpack that reminds me of those weird Loungefly bags that seem to permeate every pop culture store in the UK. It wasn’t mentioned in the patch notes, and stuff randomly appearing without…
Much of the die space of modern GPUs is given over to functionality that’s not part of the traditional rendering pipeline. Sometimes, that feels like a bit of a waste. Which is why Microsoft’s new Shader Model 6.10 preview, announced yesterday, could be mostly good news. It’s making matrix math part of the official DirectX…
In the last few years, I’ve found myself asking ‘What are webcams for?’ The obvious answer is meetings and online social gatherings, but I wonder how many use their ever-expanding feature set for anything more. Yololiv shoves DSLR-quality 4K capture into its relatively small YoloCam S3, and I’m more torn on it than I thought…
