Like any decent RPG, Cyberpunk 2077 has its slew of tough boss fights that will often make the players question whether they actually built their characters correctly or just fooled around with too many side quests. Since it’s set in a futuristic setting, there are many options for Cyberpunk 2077’s bosses and they stand out in their own way. In that sense, they’re also not made equally. Since they’re all so different from one another, some tend to be tougher or more dangerous than others....

Dark Souls 3 doesn’t win over fans who didn’t already enjoy the painfully difficult franchise, but it puts some challenging new twists on the tried and true combat system. In the franchise’s classic fashion, Dark Souls 3 asks a lot of its players. The latest installment in From Software’s painfully difficult series of games continues the long tradition of throwing players into the deep end and letting them decide on their own if they are up for the challenging task of saving the world and earning some hard to obtain trophies....

Days Gone offers an immense open world brimming with locations to explore and things to do. In between running away from hoards of freakers, upgrading your drifter bike and listening to Radio Free Oregon, you’ll come across 14 Ambush Camps packed with various types of people trying to kill you. Clearing each camp will clear up fog in the surrounding area revealing more on the map. On top of clear skies, buried beneath each camp are bunkers homing crafting recipes which gives Deacon St....

While games and their content are often judged by their all-around mechanics, there are ways to appreciate some of the smaller elements of games. Unfortunately, this wasn’t exactly the case for Dead by Daylight’s Pyramid Head, whose buttocks’ size was reduced, to the dismay of some fans. Twitter user @wheel_able pointed out the change in a few images displaying views of Pyramid Head’s backside. The screenshots can be seen below....

Ah, magic. Where would Demon’s Souls be without it? Many players rely on magic to get through different sections of the game. It is useful to kill bosses with, traverse areas, and even keeping oneself alive. Part of any magic build is having some good rings to increase magical potential, deal more damage, and have more spells. Rings will spell the difference between life and death in Demon’s Souls, especially for magic users....

The best time to discover horror movies is when you’re fractionally too young to be watching horror movies. And the best people to watch them with are not your parents, who will reassure you and allow you talk through any worries you have, but a bunch of similarly aged, ill prepared, youngsters. Hence the sleepover is the ideal screening scenario, where a bunch of kids get together to stay up all night and watch scary movies....

Anytime that Destiny releases a teaser for new content, the fan base pores over it hoping to pick up any clues. To Bungie’s credit, the developer has keyed into this quality in its players and tries to reward them for repeat viewings of new Destiny trailers. As expected, the Destiny 2 community is scrutinizing every detail from the latest trailers meant to tease the upcoming fall expansion. And while some of the more obvious information – like the fact that Saturn’s moon Europa features in both - has already been shared, there are some additional details that could be interesting to fans....

Over the course of this past year in Destiny 2, a number of fan-favorite exotics from Destiny 1 have made a return in the sequel such as Whisper of the Worm and Thunderlord. With that in mind, many veteran fans of the franchise are theorizing that perhaps the most famous exotic from the original game, the Gjallarhorn rocket launcher, may return as part of the game’s upcoming Solar Week. Currently, it is unknown when exactly Solar Week will take place in Destiny 2, as developer Bungie has only just hinted at its existence....

In case there was any doubt, Destiny 2 will bring back its Silver currency as a way to purchase items in-game. It’s unclear how exactly Silver will be spent in Bungie’s sequel, but microtransactions have become a staple of the series’ business model, and they clearly aren’t going anywhere. News of the Destiny 2 silver comes from a GameStop posting that lists several bundles of the in-game currency. Players can purchase a bundle of 1,000 Silver (plus 100 bonus Silver) for $10, or they can buy 2,000 Silver (plus 300 bonus Silver) in exchange for $20....

Lost Sectors are miniature dungeons that players can find throughout Destiny 2’s various planets. They consist of a few small areas before players come across a final boss that protects a chest. While they don’t provide much loot, they are the best method of farming bounty and quest objectives. However, not all Lost Sectors were created equal. There are some Lost Sectors in the game that are universally regarded as terrible amongst the community while others are farmed more frequently than strikes....

Good news for Destiny 2 players who never got their hands on some of the catalysts that were available only in Year 1—some of them are coming back in the next season, Season of the Drifter. Additionally, Destiny 2 will be adding a mechanic that will give a higher chance of getting catalysts to players who are part of the game’s clans. Developer Bungie did not disclose exactly which catalysts will appear in Season 6, but said “a few” would be released over the course of the Season of the Drifter....

Maintaining high DPS during boss battles is absolutely one of the most important aspects of high-level activities and raids in Destiny 2, meaning finding the best way to dish out damage is a constant struggle for players. Sometimes this comes to choosing the best Exotics for boss DPS in Destiny, or in a recent case, the best perks that allow the player to combine the game’s mechanics together to rinse bosses quickly....

With the launch of Destiny 2’s Warmind expansion, developer Bungie made a number of buffs to almost all the Exotic weapons in the game, making them much more powerful and compelling to use. Soon, Bungie is looking to do the same with Exotic armor in its May 29 game update. The changes to Exotic armor will not be as wide-sweeping as Exotic weapons, with just six armor pieces getting a buff (two from each class); however, Bungie promises to continue to buff more in the future (July is the next promised update pass)....

Trials of Osiris is back for the second week since being disabled due to the Hakke emblem cheese three weeks ago. This week’s Trials of Osiris rewards are looking very interesting and a lot of players are already jumping in and farming the new weapon added with the Season of the Chosen. This week’s featured map in Trials of Osiris is Burnout. A classic Destiny 1 PvP map located on Mercury....

This week, Bungie pushed out Destiny 2 hotfix 2.0.3.1 which includes a number of fixes for heroic adventures, weapons/items, the Dreaming City, and Gambit, the new PVP mode featured in the Forsaken expansion. Of course, what garners the most attention is the offering bug and Telesto glitch, as one was an inconvenience and the other was abused. First up is an issue with heroic adventures that had Barons dropping legendary rewards outside of the heroic adventure....

Konami’s Castlevania series offers some of the most challenging stages in 2D gaming history. When the series branched off into its 3D roots, however, some of the stages became frustrating or repetitive. In the PS2 entries — Lament of Innocence and Curse of Darkness — stage design became monotonous and lacking in platforming variety. Rather than dealing with the woes of repetitive level design, the best and worst Castlevania stages featured will cover the most exciting and frustrating locales....

The highly anticipated release of Cyberpunk 2077 is finally nearing release and the reviews are out. While PC fans are awestruck by the game’s tantalizing next-gen visuals and have an idea of what to expect, console users have been left in the dark leading to some genuine concerns. Cyberpunk 2077 reviews confirm that the game is riddled with a plethora of game-breaking, visual bugs, and glitches, indicating that its day one performance on PC isn’t up to the mark....

Sony’s PlayStation brand has had a busy 12 months, from the launch of its PlayStation VR headset and the release of the PS4 Pro, but the man who oversaw these releases is leaving the company. In a press release today, President and Group CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE), Andrew House, announced that he will be leaving Sony after 27 years at the company. House will “will transition from operational management of SIE, but will remain with SIE as Chairman through the year to ensure a smooth transition” explains Sony....

A former Disney Infinity character artist known as B Allen posts images of many upcoming figures based on current Disney franchises, including Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. It has been about eight months since Disney decided to shut down its popular toys to life video game series, Disney Infinity. Since that point in time, many new and upcoming figures and rumors have surfaced, teasing longtime fans about what could have been including figures based on upcoming films like Doctor Strange and even Star Wars: The Force Awakens....

One talented artist has crafted a poster for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild in the Studio Ghibli style. Fans will debate if Breath of the Wild is the greatest Zelda experience. There is no denying what the game managed to accomplish when it launched on Wii U and Switch three years ago. Although open world design was nothing new in video games, Breath of the Wild managed to capture that feeling of exploring uncharted land in such an incredible way....
