Earlier today, CD Projekt Red presented a Witcher 4 tech demo at Epic's State of Unreal event, showing off a first look at what the Ciri-centric sequel might look like in motion. And to set aside my professional remove for a moment, I'll confess that the demo got me. Against my better judgment, I was hyped.I'd almost forgotten the feeling. For a few minutes, the early glimpse of Witcher 4...
I hope you weren't too excited about the prospect of private servers for Old School Runescape, because Jagex has announced that Project Zanaris—the OSRS "community servers" initiative announced in 2024—has been paused "indefinitely." And it sure doesn't sound like it'll be restarted, as developers previously working on the project "have been redistributed across Jagex or directly moved to Old School to help with ongoing improvements and exciting new initiatives.""After careful...
Happy Not-E3 month. We're officially in that short few weeks of the year where the games industry comes together to announce as much as humanly possible before dispersing to prepare for the same thing next summer. That means our event schedule is unsurprisingly packed, but let's not lose sight of all the PC game releases you can actually play in June.June isn't quite as busy when compared to the beginning...
It's been just under a decade since the last Metal Gear Solid released (no, I don't count Survive), and the series is finally making a comeback with a remake of its best game—and the best game ever made, if you ask me. Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is a full remake of 2004's Metal Gear Solid 3 in Unreal Engine 5.Unlike Konami's efforts on Silent Hill 2's remake, which...
Almost six years after Norman Reedus first picked up that baby in a jar and chucked his urine at goop monsters, Hideo Kojima has returned with Death Stranding 2: On The Beach. While the studio is working on a horror game (OD) and not-Metal Gear (Physint), the follow-up to Kojima Productions’ debut game is the next to drop.I loved the original Death Stranding, but the sequel looks even more promising—an...
If you know how to beat Maris, Fathom of Night, the Augur expedition is remarkably easy—a bit of a boring slog, actually. But if you bring in the wrong team or don't know how to stop its wipe mechanic, then it'll be one of the toughest in Elden Ring Nightreign.You have to beat a total of four Nightreign bosses before you can unlock the hidden final boss, so I'd recommend...
All hail the EU's Digital Markets Act (DMA), which in recent years has been used by the bloc to force various tech giants into being a little more considerate of consumers. The DMA's latest glorious victory comes against Microsoft which, ever since September 2023, has been designated by the EU commission as a "gatekeeper" thanks to Windows: meaning it has to publish yearly compliance reports about how it's adhering to...
I concur with PC Gamer's Mollie Taylor, my fellow Final Fantasy 14 enjoyer on our illustrious staff, that FF14's Occult Crescent patch has made the game feel like an MMO again. I actually got downright emotional, hopping into my first critical encounter and seeing swarms of strangers crowding around a chance to give a boss a beatdown: 'Oh,' I thought, 'I'm playing an MMO again'.But with that joy came a...
Elden Ring Nightreign has had a slightly tumultuous launch, at least for a FromSoftware game. Despite achieving a monumental 2 million copies sold in just the first 24 hours, Nightreign also had a somewhat poor reception, with it garnering Mixed user reviews on Steam (though it's since picked up to Mostly Positive).Since then, FromSoftware has gone into damage control mode. Nightreign's first major update saw big changes to its singleplayer,...
Most of my time playing Elden Ring Nightreign has involved scrambling to piece together a good build out of the garbage the game gives me—I don't have good luck in roguelikes, you see. If I need a four in Balatro, I won't get one. But last night, cackling with glee as my starting sword gave my foes nearly every possible disease, I had finally beaten the game of fate: The...
