Stormgate, the StarCraft-like RTS that launched into early access in 2024 and hit 1.0 a year later, is ending support for online play at the end of April because Hathora, which provides server functionality for the game, has been purchased by an AI company. There’s a chance that online play could be restored at some…
We’re only a couple of months off the back of Intel’s Core Ultra Series 3 ‘Panther Lake’ laptop chips, which our Andy called “fast, feisty, and fabulous” after extensive testing, and now we’ve got some concrete specs for a new generation of Intel mobile chips—assuming X user Jaykihn’s leaked table is legit, that is. As…
I met Billy in a Hernand alley on my first day in Crimson Desert. There I was, just minding my own business, chatting to a beggar, when this numpty bumps into me. “Rude!” I think to myself. Then he immediately legs it, a millisecond before I realise my pockets are feeling a touch lighter. The…
I can already tell that the new, rare-quality Canto SMG will become a fan favourite topside. It’s a cheap version of the Bobcat, shredding players and Arc up close. However, getting the Canto blueprint in Arc Raiders is a real pain. In fact, it’s harder to get than the legendary Dolabra blueprint, the other gun…
Oracle has just let go of “some 10,000” people, according to one employee who recently spoke to the BBC. There’s been some speculation lately over whether the AI industry is showing the first creaky signs of struggle, and this isn’t likely to help that. Especially as Oracle is spending big to keep up with datacenter…
Although it’s not designed for it, the MacBook Neo user might naturally wonder: Is there a way to crank even more performance out of the laptop for gaming? To that end, tech YouTubers Jakkuh and Zip Tie Tech are here to help. Happy birthday, Apple. After noticing the cheap and cheerful Apple MacBook’s GPU tends…
Apple turns 50 today. The big 5-0. That company from Cupertino, California is one of the biggest success stories in tech. It’s built an empire from selling phones and laptops to people that have moustaches tattooed on their fingers and unironically wore suspenders in 2010. A mighty accomplishment. Alright, I will lay off the sarcasm…
World of Warcraft: Shadowlands might go down as one of the worst-received expansions in the game’s history—a situation so dire that it quite literally caused Blizzard to do a 180, scrap whatever plot it was working on, and throw players into a five-year timeskip on the Dragon Isles just so it could shake the dang…
The Nier series is deeply beloved and, alas, deeply underserved. The last mainline game in the series was Nier: Automata, which came out in 2017—almost one whole decade ago. I mean, there was also Nier Reincarnation, a mobile gacha from 2021, but I feel spiritually obligated not to count that one. Hopes were raised when…
After spending several days testing Nvidia’s new Dynamic Multi Frame Generation, I wrote about my findings, so that you can judge for yourself whether it’s worth using or not. I also briefly mentioned that the DLSS 4.5 update included a new preset for frame generation, purported to improve the user interface in certain games. Having…
