He popped up on Reddit to show off, and he has every right to do so. Because look: To see this content please enable targeting cookies. Manage cookie settings I’m in awe. He’s spent over a year making these, using the first Mercy artwork (where she was originally designed as a male combat medic) as the basis. He’s also been recording his process and progress, which involved a lot of sanding, welding, and programming....

The update entered beta testing on June 1st but is now available to all. Its major changes are those quality-of-life improvements. You can now save mid-expedition for example, meaning you can quit and rest without losing your progress. You can also change the speed of both expeditions and fights, increasing the tempo by as much as four times. Those were major complaints from players in the weeks after release. There are other nice-to-haves in the update, too, including easier deck switching and the ability to lock items in your inventory by right-clicking on them....

The fantasy plane All Hail Temos takes place on revolves around side-quests that bring the game to multiple different endings. The world is “clocklike”, with dialogue and choices made in quests moving everything that each decision affects onwards. It’s all logged in a travelogue to map out your choices. All the NPCs and creatures have a daily schedule to keep, and there’s a day/night cycle and dynamic weather to take into account....

I’m a wuss and would not play most horror games, but I do want to play a game where the sheets drape just so across whatever abomination is lurching beneath them. That bit where the ghost (or whatever) tumbles out a door looks remarkable. Whether those sheet physics are enough to get me over the psychological horror promised by the Steam page, I don’t know. “Explore the pain caused by the loss of a loved one, the horror of the insecurity to the deepest darkness hidden behind anxiety and depression…”, it says, and I think: nah....

Firaxis confirmed back in October that Deadpool was coming to Midnight Suns as a playable character. You can’t just grab Ryan Reynolds’ alter ego alone though, as he won’t be sold individually. Wade Wilson’s the first of four Marvel heroes joining the Midnight Suns through the game’s season pass, which costs almost as much as the game itself. Spider-Man’s frenemy Venom, former X-Men leader Storm, and, erm, Morbius, are the other characters signing up for some supernatural shenanigans at a later date....

The team have already told us a bit about how Midnight Sun’s card combat works, but they elaborated on the system even further during the livestream. If you want to see it for yourself, have a watch of the stream below. Even though heroes’ abilities are dealt to the player at the start of combat, they’re not entirely random. Players can assign these abilities to the deck beforehand, and if they run out of cards, they can utilise the environment to their advantage by ripping down lampposts, for example....

It’s not a big twist: they’ve been quiet because they have been working on the game. Scorn was first revealed back in 2016 as a way of drumming up funding - and it worked, first via Kickstarter and later via various publishers - but with that done, they’ve mostly preferred to remain heads down. The Kickstarter update is quite frank, however. It’s shot through with a team seemingly exhausted from people asking where the game is....

Microsoft have put out the official brand-y words on the subject, calling it “a 90-minute show packed with everything you want to know about the epic gaming lineup coming out of this partnership, the incredible games coming to Xbox this holiday, upcoming releases on Xbox Game Pass, and more.” Epic gaming lineup, indeed. In their shiny teaser image up top you can of course spot some Halo folks. I imagine some new Halo Infinite details will pretty much be mandatory this summer, with its autumn 2021 launch window off on the horizon....

A post on the Minecraft site explains how to get onboard. There are technical reasons why the snapshot can’t be rolled into the regular Java beta, and so this is being flagged as more explicitly experimental. That aside, the changes are exciting enough to make it tempting. Basically, 1.18 completely remakes how Minecraft generates its world. There are new mountain biomes that offer higher peaks, new cave biomes that should make underground exploration feel fresh, and a new ore distribution that’s going to mess with all your old routines about where to find diamonds....

Rumours and jokes persisted that the first Diablo had a secret cow level, then Blizzard made one for real with Diablo 2, sending clickheads into a field to fight hordes of bipedal cows with polearms. Blizzard have since revisited it in Diablo 3, dropped a few little gags in other games, and even put a cow level event in World Of Warcraft. To cull the herd in Minecraft Dungeons, you first need to complete the campaign, then find nine runes hidden in nine levels, then warp through a portal hidden in the camp....

I can’t believe I’m about to say this, but it’s at least as good as Slay The Spire. I adore the Spire to the point of self-destruction, and have played it for many hundreds of hours. It’s a masterclass in elegant design; an unfolding lotus of weighty decisions and wild card combos. But Monster Train was watching, and Monster Train was learning. Its engine burns with an unholy fusion of the Spire’s best ideas and its own, and now it’s steaming off into the history books....

The Virtuous Cycle will let you adventure anew with enemies shuffled around upon death. You also get to shape your build through pillars which bestow talents, everything from weapon enhancements to new moves. Along with that roguelikelike reshuffling, it adds a new playable shell in the form of Hadern (the tutorial boss) as well as a new weapon, the Axatana. As the name suggests, it’s both an axe and dual katanas, switching between the two forms with different movesets for each....

Get the MSI Laptop Prestige 14 for $300 off The Prestige 14 comes with an impressive loadout for an ultra-thin laptop, with a GTX 1650 graphics card, 10th-gen hexa-core Core i5 processor, 16GB of dual-channel RAM and a 512GB NVMe SSD. Great care has obviously been taken with the design too, with a slim bezel 1080p screen with a fold-flat hinge, Thunderbolt 3 support, fingerprint login and 10 hours of battery life....

Here’s the trailer, shown during tonight’s Future Game Show: This time, you’re called to Mars by a distress signal, and head out to attempt to recover ARK colony ships stolen by “the mysterious Outward”. That’s what the Steam page says. While this is a sequel, developers KeokeN say that the new game should stand alone, with a new protagonist and setting making it a suitable entry point to the series....

The mod, Voxel Doom replaces the sprites for monsters, weapon pick-ups, items, and decorative props with 3D voxel versions. No more monsters snapping between directions or props rotating to face you, it’s full fancy 3D. The mod only recreates Doom 1 monsters right now, but creator Daniel “Cheello” Peterson says “Doom 2 monsters will be completed in the very near future.” Voxel Doom looks pretty great! Things look like the originals, only now they’re solid objects I can see from all angles, not just the handful of sprite angles....

One of my biggest gripes with Monster Hunter is its onboarding process: it’s exactly like a real life onboarding process. You’re hit with hundreds, if not thousands, of tooltips worded like official documentation, all to explain its many intricate systems. And while it’s not necessarily a bad thing, a huge part of successful monster hunting lies in understanding and navigating the game’s menus, before you even begin to customise them to your liking....

New World’s new global launch date is now Tuesday, September 28th. You’ll be able to find it over on Steam when it does eventually launch. Before you go, let’s all pay our respects to Colm’s best games coming in August list. He was feeling optimistic and bumped the list up from a usual ten entries to twelve. Between that Icarus delay, a Skatebird delay, and now this, it seems like even a list of ten was a bit too much....

While many characters are permanently available as potential pulls from the gacha, others — usually 5-star characters — are only available during limited periods as part of Character Event Wish banners. Every Character Event Wish banner features one 5-star character and three 4-star characters with a massively increased drop rate, and the 5-star character is often unique to the banner and unobtainable in any other way. On this page, we’ve compiled everything we know about Genshin Impact’s current and upcoming banners, including release dates and times for the next banner changeover....
