After a long wait, Cyberpunk 2077’s main quest doesn’t disappoint. It’s a hefty story that lasts for over 20 hours, spanning across three different acts with several different quests that then spiral into side quests. Filled with characters that step in and out of the main questline, you’re not going to get easily bored. That said, some of the missions of the main storyline shine much brighter than others that might even feel like a chore to do....
There are many tools of destruction in Cyberpunk 2077, some of which are assault rifles, SMGs, and sniper rifles. These are actually some of the best choices to go for in terms of character build, since they allow main character and mercenary V to stay further away from enemies who tend to generally go for cover as well rather than run straight at you. Moreover, there are plenty of unique weapons that make the skill tree of Assault, found within the Reflex attribute, worthwhile leveling up....
Xbox confirms that the Cyberpunk 2077 Xbox One X bundle will be the last limited edition Xbox One X. It officially revealed the Cyberpunk 2077 Xbox One X last week after fans were able to figure out what the teasers were teasing several days before the big announcement. In a post on the Xbox Wire, editor in chief Will Tuttle confirmed that “this will be the final Xbox One X limited edition console to ever be released....
With Cyberpunk 2077 less than two weeks out from release, not much is left to be revealed for CD Projekt Red’s highly anticipated open-world RPG. The studio has done a good job at keeping fans engaged during the game’s development with blog posts and Night City Wire presentations, however, while we have recently gotten our first look at Cyberpunk 2077 running on consoles, we still have no footage showing how the game will perform on the base PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles....
One day, when it’s safe to gather in groups again, I’ll bust out my Dungeon Master screens. They might be my favorite product made for Dungeons & Dragons - in a world full of dice goblins, I’m a screen kobold. It also just so happens that I’ve been planning a hex crawl campaign, so Wizards of the Coast’s Dungeon Master’s Screen Wilderness Kit is right up my alley. But will it be up yours?...
Video game movies, or movies based on video games, don’t have the best reputations. Sure, there are a couple out there that are liked by some - Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter the Movie are in that “so bad, they’re good” category - but it’s less about their overall quality, and more about how terrible they’re not - which does go a long way. Despite some interesting examples, however, there has yet to be a definitive ‘good’ video game movie, even though many could be done quite easily....
Boss fights and Dark Souls are practically synonymous with each other. Every game in the series is known for having tough PvE encounters and surprisingly deep PvP combat, yet there are plenty of rewards for players that push through the game’s hardest content. Covenant rewards, upgrade materials, and even boss weapons are available throughout the Dark Souls games for those skilled enough. Dark Souls 2 managed this better than any other Souls title....
As many gamers would possibly attest, Darksiders 3 is one of the most highly anticipated games of fall 2018, and players have a little more than a month left to go before they can get their hands on a copy of the forthcoming title. Now, in order to catch fans up on their in-game history for the hack-and-slash trilogy, the publisher THQ Nordic and developer Gunfire Games have decided to release a video detailing the lore surrounding what is known as “The Charred Council”....
It has been said before that there is no new thing under the sun. This can definitely be attributed to video games, as most, if not all titles are either influenced by previously released products – whether consciously or unknowingly – or they contain similar ideas that remain prevalent or consistent within a genre. Speaking of this concept, many fans are already lobbing out comparisons between Days Gone and The Last of Us to say that they’re the same, despite the former not even being released....
Eons ago when CD-ROM technology was brand new, the games industry started to see a bunch of titles crop up that utilized real-life actors in pre-recorded footage. Colloquially referred to as FMV games, the most prominent of these from the 90s was the Sega CD exclusive Night Trap. You essentially watched a movie and had limited interactivity in how the events played out. While there were other games that simply used actors for cutscene purposes (the old Command & Conquer series, for instance), others attempted to provide a TV show or film with audience participation....
In the new Death Stranding trailer from E3 2018, fans got their very first look at gameplay as protagonist Sam trudged across the landscape with his equipment in tow. It even featured a tense sequence that sees Sam attempt to avoid the clutches of the game’s spectral enemies. What the trailer doesn’t feature, however, is any combat gameplay and it seems that there may have been a very good reason for this....
At this point, we’re all aware that Sony skipped E3. And do you know what? It was smart to do so. In this day and age, industry titans like Nintendo, Sony, and Xbox have sufficient clout to attract enormous audiences regardless of whether or not their showcases are facilitated by traditional trade shows. Sure, E3 is still a major date in the games industry calendar, but if a mega publisher wants to skip it and highlight its current reel on its own terms… well, it can do that pretty damn easily....
Capcom looks to extend its trademark for Deep Down, the Dragon’s Dogma-inspired free-to-play online dungeon crawler that has been in development for years. One of the first exclusive games revealed for PlayStation 4 was Deep Down, a free-to-play online dungeon crawler that was billed as a “spiritual successor” to Dragon’s Dogma. Three years after its announcement, and Deep Down still doesn’t have a release date in sight, but Capcom hasn’t given up on the long-gestating project just yet....
Want to solo the formidable Oryx in Hard Mode? Check out this latest King’s Fall raid strategy, showing how to take down this Destiny boss without breaking a sweat. Although Destiny expansion The Taken King has been out for some time, fans of the Bungie-developed MMO shooter are still finding reasons to play (other than to justify that initial expensive price tag). One of the main reasons to keep coming back to the additional content is to find new and improved ways to take out Oryx, the intimidating opponent of the King’s Fall raid....
It’s E3 weekend, which means that gamers around the globe are anxiously anticipating the new reveals, demos, and trailers that will be released within the next few days. Destiny fans are especially excited because they know that Bungie has some plans for Destiny 2 at the event. For starters, E3 attendees will be the first of the general public to try out the new Arcstrider Hunter class. But even those not in attendance have something to look forward to, as Activision has confirmed that Bungie will say more about the Destiny 2 open beta that is coming this summer....
The Dawnblade takes the Warlock to the skies and uses the Solar element to devastate foes in the battlefield. Moreover, Destiny 2 introduces this Warlock subclass as a replacement to Bungie’s Destiny Sunsinger. Additionally, this subclass retains the latter’s healing-intensive skillset with a flight component. As such, Dawnblade Warlocks can use the skies for increased mobility to aid allies and reach enemies faster. Thankfully, the Dawnblade subclass allows Warlocks to have vertical control....
Destiny 2 developer Bungie announced today that Shadowkeep was being unfortunately delayed from September 17 to October 1, as the team needs just a little more time to prepare for the next step in Destiny 2’s evolution. Given that it is only two weeks, the majority of the fanbase isn’t likely to care, but Bungie did reveal some new information pertaining to the expansion’s raid to keep the masses sated....
Destiny players are already aware of gear sunsetting, a term that refers to gear having a hard Power infusion cap that cannot be increased. However, Bungie made an announcement recently that they would also be cycling out Destiny 2 content from the game itself. When Destiny 2: Beyond Light launches, players will no longer have access to Io, Mars, Titan, Mercury, and the Leviathan. This includes any story missions and gear....
When players first log in to the Destiny 2 beta and select a character, they are thrust into an opening cutscene and the game’s first story mission, called Homecoming. It’s the same mission (albeit the full version) that has been shown off at previous events featuring Destiny 2, where players go through the Tower under Red Legion attack. Players with a keen sense of hearing and a willingness to go a bit off the beaten path will find an Easter egg in the Tower hangar....
It took seven seasons, but Destiny 2’s artifact system has finally impressed me. Since its introduction in Season of the Undying, the Artifact Mod system has been little more than a necessary evil. A system that rotates available mods each season is good in theory, but so far, all we’ve really gotten out of it is some variety for Champion mods and cheaper versions of already available and uncommonly used mods....
