Perhaps the most anticipated title coming this fall is Cyberpunk 2077, the upcoming Sci-Fi RPG from The Witcher 3 developer CD Projekt Red. It’s bound to be filled with various Easter eggs given its very premise, but it doesn’t seem fans need to wait until Cyberpunk 2077 launches to find them. The developer recently released a few posters and wallpapers for fans of the upcoming game, with one featuring the protagonist V on a train....
Writing up my preview for Cyberpunkdreams has proven to be particularly difficult. Not because the game is a slog or anything like that. Quite the opposite, really. It’s just that every time I’ve started writing about the game, it makes me want to jump back in and play more. It’s that good. Cyberpunkdreams is a text-based adventure set in the popular futuristic, dystopian genre of the times. No, there’s no Keanu, but the game doesn’t need that star power to be successful, even in its current Early Access build that I can’t seem to stop playing....
Daemon X Machina is now available for pre-purchase and pre-load on the Nintendo Switch. The people who purchase the game early will have access to several digital pre-order bonus items. Daemon X Machina is an upcoming third-person shooter that involves mech suits battling against armies of robots. The planet was once home to robots that had been created to serve humanity, but then the moon crashed into the world and released a corrupting form of energy known as Femto that altered the artificial intelligence of the machines and turned them against their creators....
FromSoftware has never been afraid to dive into some grim, macabre territory in its games. From the ghastly execution animations and grotesque bosses of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice to the equally dark and grotesque areas and bosses of Bloodborne, there’s nary a punch being pulled here. The enemies of these dark fantasy worlds are creep-tastic enough, but let’s spare a thought for the NPCs too. These poor lost souls are some of the most uncanny and bizarre creatures in the games....
Sorcery builds in Dark Souls 3 are capable of unleashing immense devastation with the right build and spell, however, life for a mage isn’t easy. They’re pretty squishy, so they need all the help that they can get to maximize each attack and maneuver in order to achieve victory. Prolonged battles never favor casting builds, as they can’t take as many hits as other kinds, and also can run out of FP if combat persists for too long....
The Dark Souls series is one that has charmed countless players with its unruly difficulty and unforgiving punishment. While they all present a significant challenge, they can be overcome with any weapon. Despite this, there are many ‘meta’ weapons that make the games easier than others. Given the third entry’s steep learning curve, it is unsurprising that many players haven’t tried out the game’s full arsenal. Newcomers often flock to the ’easiest’ weapon with which they think they can beat the game....
There are tons of unique and powerful weapons in Dark Souls 3 to invest your stats and Titanite toward, but few are as exciting or iconic as the ones you craft with your Boss Souls with Ludleth in Firelink Shrine. Beating bosses is a huge feat, so getting to wield their large and bizarre weapons yourself makes for wonderful trophies, as well as a wide new set of attacks to try out....
Sony’s post-apocalyptic Oregon is pretty big, so traveling around can take a lot of time — time that could be better used to slay hordes and clear infestations. Whatever your reason, fast travel is probably going to be very important during your time with Days Gone, especially if you want to find all the collectibles. Here’s everything you need to know about fast travel in Days Gone. How To Fast Travel To fast travel, you’ll first open up your map....
Fans hoping for major DC news in lieu of an actual San Diego Comic-Con are definitely going to get just that at DC FanDome, a digital event designed to be watched at home like a real con.

This event additionally includes the tips on the loading screens replaced with special words from the development team that they want to tell the players.

There are currently 19 Killers in Dead by Daylight, the four-year-old asymmetrical horror game developed by Behaviour Interactive. A number are based on genre tropes popularized by media in the 70s and 80s; evil clowns, crazed doctors, plague-bringing ancient zealots, etc. The rest are “visitors,” licensed representatives from those movies that influenced Dead by Daylight, for instance Michael Myers from Halloween. Modern-day horrors have also been included, from Saw’s Amanda Young to the Demogorgon from Netflix’s Stranger Things....
I’ve written about The Legend of Dragoon a fair amount in recent times. But I realized one topic I have yet to cover is what should actually happen with a Legend of Dragoon remake. We’ve gone over the community and its projects and how we’re all working together to get the game remade, but what should the finished product look like? Basically, it can be broken down into a few categories: what absolutely should not change, what absolutely must change, and other ideas that are being tossed around in the community....
As Destiny players this week enter the refreshed version of the King’s Fall raid, they will likely see and hear some common occurrences. Veterans know the pitfalls of the Taken King raid all too well, but newcomers will find there is plenty of frustration and laughs to be had as they take on Oryx. Play King’s Fall Bingo To that point, one Destiny fan has put together a fun Bingo card that highlights some of the most common occurrences during the King’s Fall raid....
During Bungie Day a few weeks ago, Destiny fans got a head full of fresh information regarding the action-RPG. For instance, the developers particularly highlighted the Year 1 Rewards Program for dedicated players. Even though fans seemed pleased with the majority of the celebration surrounding Destiny, a lot of people went to bed disappointed that night. For instance, most of the self-proclaimed Guardians were sad to find out that there wasn’t a lot of focus put on the title’s highly anticipated expansion known as The Taken King....
We have the early scoop on where to find the vendor Xur and what exotic armor and weapons he has available to Destiny players for the weekend of April 8. Destiny’s big April Update is just four days away. This week, Bungie went over some of the balancing and sandbox changes coming with the update. Warlocks are getting reworked a bit, there are big changes coming to the revive mechanic, and MIDA Multi-Tool might be a little less popular....
After one of his best showings since the launch of Destiny, many were wondering how Xur would follow-up last week’s selection. Turns out, he didn’t have a very great follow-up, but nonetheless the show must go on. This week, Xur can be found right inside the hangar on the ledge overlooking the last living city on Earth. It’s really hard to miss him, just head towards the Hangar and hang a sharp right....
Destiny 2: Beyond Light has brought major changes to the loot structure of Destiny 2 as a whole. Major parts of the game were removed including planets and weapons. To make up for this, the new gear Bungie added in Beyond Light is incredibly strong. The Deep Stone Crypt raid has the strongest weapons in the game currently, some of which could go toe-to-toe with older Pinnacle weapons. Exclusive perks, great perk combinations, and a devastating Exotic are more than enough reasons to farm this raid....
Destiny 2’s amazing “Forsaken” expansion brought with it two new locations, plenty of new bosses, a new game mode, and a revision to the game’s reward and loot systems. Part of what made that expansion so great was the introduction of the Dreaming City, a unique setting dedicated to endgame players with secrets around every corner. A curse would change the location every week, presenting new activities, enemies, and challenges for players to face....
While Destiny 2’s Nightfall Strikes are supposed to be one of the hardest endgame experiences that players will face, some have found the encounters a little too challenging. Although the game says that 240 power level is recommended for a Nightfall Strike, very few players at that level will get through the encounter successfully. Nightfall Strikes are not particularly hard on their own, but the addition of the timer for Destiny 2 has posed a challenge to some fireteams....
While this week’s reset brought the Lumina quest that many were waiting for, it also meant a new clan raid challenge for the Crown of Sorrows raid became available. This one, known as Total Victory, centers on the Gahlran’s Deception encounter of Destiny 2’s newest raid. Players have discovered how to complete the raid challenge in general as well as an easy way to do it. Before getting to the method, Destiny 2 players must have a clan level of 4 or above this season for the challenge to appear....
