Baldur’s Gate 3 had “a bit” of crunch, as director claims that will “always” be the case to get games finished

Dragon Quest 3 remake might bring the whole Erdrick trilogy to HD-2D, if a fresh tease from Square Enix is anything to go by

(Alex notes that the three games together are often called the Erdrick trilogy.) Still, why not live in optimism?

Best Greatswords in Elden Ring

Some Greatswords also scale with eitherFaith,IntelligenceorArcaneand in doing so, are equipped with powerful Weapon Skills. Both swords have incredibly similar movement patterns and damage output. The Claymore just takes the edge for the slightly improved speed and marginally longer range via its thrust attack. This Skill allows the Tarnished to perform a somersault with a large downward strike as they land. This Skill is particularly useful for thestance damageit can inflict on foes (up to 33 with Greatswords)....

Animal Well creator plans to follow the superb Metroidvania with a game that shares its world but “may not be a direct sequel”

I am very flattered people care that much. […] They just solved it legitimately way faster than I ever could have imagined. There will never be any DLC for animal well. (cannot say, Basso replied bluntly to another question about a sequel.) Best get back to solving those puzzles, then!

Besiege: The Splintered Sea review: a small vessel for expansive seafaring

That in mind: Splintered Sea is more Besiege, thoughtfully applied to its already expansive toolkit. To give some structure to its sandbox modes, the meat of Besiege consists of challenge maps. Splintered Sea adds 10 new challenge maps and 8 new aquatic building blocks. In short: no-one told me this game was basically an Ork simulator. You usually get at least one good shot before you completely topple over. Ambient music and pouring rain tell of a conflict bringing despair to the land....

Call Of Duty 2024 revealed as Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6, "a dark new chapter"

What do we know about Black Ops 6? kindly let this not be my weary end-of-week projection. kindly let this be evidence that Black Ops 6’s major antagonist (or protagonist?) is a wolf so vast it is obliged to clothe itself in major US landmarks. Perhaps it could wear the Pentagon as a diaper? Ho ho ho I slay myself. like let this be evidence that Black Ops 6 is secretly aBayonettagame....

Fortnite's new season adds War Buses, rocket-propelled fists, and a lawless desert biome

It’s actually pretty cool, to be fair. And as a personal fan of driving about, this season seems entirely aimed at folks like me. I also like the fact Epic have thought how to best a bunch of vehicles if you’re vehicleless.

'Don't worry! I'm a murderer!' -winning comedy Anthology of the Killer is out next week

Crime zone InAnthology of the Killeryou do not exit the game using a pause menu. You exit it by walking down a back alley into the quavering arms of two hungry bears. There’s a trailer below.

Best Faith weapons in Elden Ring

However, it’s worth noting that the weapononly offers Holy damageand no other physical output. The Coded Sword cannot be infused withAshes Of Warbut comes already equipped with theUnblockable BladeSkill. This skill costs 18 FP, deals36 stance damageand is where this weapon really shines through. We recommend pairing this weapon with theSacred Scorpion CharmTalismanwhich further raises Holy damage.

Hauntii review: an adventure as beautiful as it looks

Instead, it’s split into a series of worlds, each composed of several stages. Many of these stages are presented as easy to follow pathways of light, with playgrounds splintering off them. And also like Super Mario Odyssey, your progression through these worlds isn’t entirely linear. Thing is, these stars aren’t just sitting on benches toking on vapes. It’s about haunting these skittish witches whose knapsacks spill light, granting you makeshift stepping stones....
