Warning: Major Spoilers for Baldur’s Gate 3 Dark Urge playthroughs lie ahead.While Baldur’s Gate 3’s Patch 7 was beefier than Karlach if she took up olympic weightlifting, packing in a massive amount of additions, tweaks, and fixes, it seems there a still a few things players were hoping for which slipped through the cracks. The main one still bothering folk is how companions react to certain Dark Urge scenes, with some BG3ers now urging Larian to revamp this before it moves on from the game.If you somehow missed Baldur’s Gate 3’s latest update arriving last week, you can check out what it includes here. Needless to say it’s generally gone down well, especially those official modding tools, which modders are already doing plenty of interesting stuff with.To see this content please enable t…

Warhammer 40K: Darktide – one of the best Warhammer games in recent years and a very good co-op shooter – may be popping up on the PS5 according to a Taiwanese game rating.This rating, spotted by Gematsu, has seemingly listed the game as incoming to the Sony platform, though there hasn’t been any official announcement by Fatshark or Sony for that matter as of writing. Whether this is a canary in the coal mine for a larger announcement in the near future, or a fumbled entry on a national rating platform historically fumble-averse will surely be revealed in the coming weeks or months.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings Darktide has been trucking along rather nicely since its release.

Everyone take a seat and brace yourself. We’ve finally got a release date for Monster Hunter Wilds! The latest big release from Capcom is set to launch worldwide on February 28, 2025.This info came from the Sony State of Play livestream that just concluded. Via a fancy new trailer blending new gameplay peaks as well as a narrative tease of what we can expect come next year, we’ve got a pretty good idea of what the deal is with Wilds at this point. You can watch the trailer yourself below!Monster Hunter Wilds – Release Date Reveal Trailer | PS5 Games Watch the new Monster Hunter Wilds trailer here!Watch on YouTubeStarting with gameplay, we get some new monsters shown off that’ll make for good hunting, some fishing, some teamwork via explosive barrel throwing, and some nifty environmental in…

Tekken has had a few licensed characters over the years, but apparently series director Katsuhiro Harada once asked if Colonel Sanders could be in it.Noctis, Geese Howard, Akuma – these are all guest characters that have appeared in Tekken, all of which generally make some amount of sense (they do all share the fact that they’re all video game characters, at the very least). Sure, The Walking Dead’s Negan Smith is a bit of an odd one, but hey, the vibes are more or less right. You know who would be incredibly out of place though? KFC’s Colonel Sanders, and yet somewhere along the line director Katsuhiro Harada wanted just that, and even went so far as to speak to the fried chicken producer itself in Japan.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings Harada rec…

It’s been a long while since the modding team behind Fallout: Nuevo México had anything to show off, but the New Vegas mod finally has an official reveal trailer.Fallout 4 is nine years old next month, and even though Bethesda did put out Fallout 76 in the years since then, there hasn’t been a single-player sequel, and there won’t be one until after Elder Scrolls 6, which is still a while away itself (even if Bethesda doesn’t want to wait that long either). Thankfully, though, modders have come together to create entire expansion-sized mods like Fallout: London to help fill the gap, and despite being put on hold earlier this year, and later being taken off hold, the team behind Fallout: Nuevo México has released the mod’s first official trailer, and it’s quite the impressive …

The Witcher, a series famously known for its use of violence and the like, is getting an all-ages graphic novel, because it’s never too early to start them on the hunt.If you ask me, The Witcher isn’t the first series I would jump to if I were looking to make a kid-friendly comic book, but it’s clearly a decision someone has made because that’s exactly what happened. The Little Witcher (I see what you’re doing there, cute) is a new book coming from a collaboration between CD Projekt Red and Penguin Random House, illustrated by Giada Carboni. I have to say, I’ve never seen quite so cute a version of Geralt of Rivia in my life, and it’s not something I ever thought I needed, but I’m also not unhappy to have it either.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings …

VariousThere are so many ways to be a Dungeons & Dragons fan these days. The tabletop RPG mainstay has been synonymous with pen-and-paper adventuring for 50 years now, and 2024 marks a major reworking of its core rulebooks to make the game more approachable. Anyone who’s played even just a couple of sessions knows how easy it can be to covet a friend’s set of custom dice, appreciate the care a Dungeon Master has taken in setting the right ambience for a crafted campaign, or even obsess over their choice of pen and notebook — after all, it’s what you’ll be spending a large chunk of time staring into as you ponder your character’s next heroic action.But what’s amazing is that you can be a huge D&D fan without ever touching a character sheet. D&D and the Forgotten R…

He began writing about tech and gaming in 2013, and migrated from The Verge in 2023.One of the best unofficial October Prime Day deals has come early at Woot, where you can get a new Nintendo Switch OLED with either white or neon blue/red Joy-Con for $299.99 ($50 off). It’s not typical for this console to receive any kind of discount, so we’re usually skeptical that there’s something amiss when one pops up, like an iffy warranty, or that it isn’t the U.S. version, which includes a different power adapter. However, there are no strings attached; you’re just getting a great deal.Nintendo Switch OLED$300$35014% off$300Nintendo’s hybrid console still has plenty of staying power, especially with this year�…
