В The Verge назвали PS5 Pro отличным устройством для тех, кто «не хочет заморачиваться».

Для своих тестов обозреватель запускал The Last of Us Part I на среднебюджетном ПК и консоли.

На компьютере перед началом прохождения ему пришлось ждать около 15 минут, пока завершится компиляция шейдеров.

После ему потребовалось провести ещё 20 минут, настраивая игру, чтобы добиться приемлемого соотношения производительности и качества графики.

На PS5 Pro же игра запустилась моментально, в 4K и с высочайшей детализацией.

Хорошая стрельба и никакого разнообразия — что говорят в обзорах Metro Awakening Хорошая стрельба и никакого разнообразия — что говорят в обзорах Metro Awakening

Журналисты из различных изданий опубликовали финальные обзоры Metro Awakening всего за день до выхода игры.

На момент написаний новости тайтл имеет среднюю оценку в 76 баллов на Metacritic и 79 баллов на OpenCritic с рекомендацией в 74 %.

Но в целом Metro Awakening — это выдающийся VR-хит, который доказывает, что VR далеко не умирающая забава, и что она всё ещё может предложить массу интригующих впечатлений.

Осси Мюккянен (Ossi Mykkänen)Временами в Metro Awakening проглядывается хорошая VR-игра, но она оказывается зажатой между приятной боевой системой и повествовательными амбициями разработчиков.

В связи со скорым завершением столь успешного проекта сотрудники Riot Games заявили, что в будущем фанатам следует ожидать появления других экранизаций League of Legends.

По данным издания Variety, производство Arcane обошлось компании примерно в 250 миллионов долларов с учётом маркетинга.

Источники также утверждают, что бюджет оказался таким огромными из-за расточительства, вызванного неопытностью Riot Games в сфере развлекательного медиа.

Успех Arcane сподвиг Riot и дальше развиваться в сфере экранизаций, однако другие проекты пока далеки от релиза.

У нас есть проекты в разработке, и мы как и прежде воодушевлены возможностями в сфере телевидения и кино.

Virtua Fighter — одна из старейших серий файтингов, которая находится в стагнации с конца 00-х.

После релиза Virtua Fighter 5 SEGA выпускала лишь переиздания, но, судя по всему, серию ждёт перерождение, так как в разработке находится свежая игра.

Впервые о новой Virtua Fighter заговорили в начале года.

Тогда проверенный японский инсайдер Midori (MbKKssTBhz5) сообщал, что авторы Virtua Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown готовят перезапуск серии для мультиплатформенного рынка.

Похоже, к ним можно добавить и Virtua Fighter, о чём свидетельствует Скарпоне.

Функция записи игр в Steam вышла из «беты» Функция записи игр в Steam вышла из «беты»

Valve официально выпустила функцию записи игр в Steam — теперь она доступна всем желающим на ПК, Mac и Steam Deck.

Лучше всего эта функция работает в тайтлах «с улучшенной поддержкой» вроде Dota 2Есть функция мгновенного повтора, чтобы быстро оценить, что в катке пошло не так.

Записать получится только игру в Steam — рабочий стол и другие программы в кадр не попадут.

По словам Valve , даже при постоянной фоновой работе функция записи не отъест много ресурсов системы.

Чтобы получить доступ к свежей функции, необходимо обновить клиент Steam и выбрать подходящий режим записи в настройках (вкладка «Запись игр»).

Поэтому многие в своих рецензиях сосредоточились на том, чтобы понять, стоит ли PS5 Pro своих денег.

Этого достаточно, чтобы я вдруг осознал, что хочу сесть поближе, встать рядом или даже подключить PS5 Pro к 4K-монитору и использовать сборку как игровой ПК.

У PS5 Pro достаточно сил, чтобы до блеска очистить это окно.

Например, Bloodborne, которая всё ещё остаётся эксклюзивом PS4, стала выглядеть лучше на PS5 Pro.

Как пишет IGN, если раньше люди в основном метались между двумя режимами производительности, то на PS5 Pro в некоторых играх вариантов быстродействия стало ещё больше.

Напомним, оригинальная версия Divinity: Original Sin II вышла в 2017-м, а через год свет увидело издание Definitive Edition.

На днях до Stardew Valley на консолях и телефонах добрался большой патч 1.6.

«Недавнее обновление добавило в мобильную версию секретную экспериментальную функцию мультиплеера», — твитнул Барони и поделился инструкцией для активации режима.

Участникам группы важно быть на одной версии Stardew Valley, а также в общей сети Wi-fi, так что мобильным хостам придётся раздавать Интернет другим.

Когда игра попросит разрешить искать и подключаться к другим девайсам в одной Сети, после нажатия на согласие не удастся установить соединение.

Когда патч вышел, на только что созданной луговой ферме в первый день могли пропадать курицы.

У Warner Bros. амбициозные планы по развитию франшизы «Гарри Поттер».

В шоу, по словам руководителей, будут перекликающиеся элементы с продолжением Hogwarts Legacy.

Напомним, игра стала самым продаваемым тайтлом 2023 года, поэтому Warner Bros. отметила разработку сиквела как высокоприоритетную.

Также Хаддад поделился, что часть сюжетных линий следующей Hogwarts Legacy найдёт отражение в грядущем сериале от HBO.

Сериал по «Гарри Поттеру» начнут показывать не раньше конца 2026-го, а сиквел Hogwarts Legacy всё ещё официально не анонсирован.

В Assassin’s Creed Shadows заложат основу для дальнейшего развития этой сюжетной линии, которая, по словам Коте, продолжит развиваться в будущих играх серии.

У некоторых могут возникнуть вопросы к разномастной архитектуре, обилию разных цветов кирпича и, в целом, к более богатому убранству, чем типичные серые средневековые города.

В Warhorse Studios заверили, что в этом аспекте ничего не добавляли от себя.

Детей в городе нет и не будет.

Если в оригинале ему приходилось в одиночку шарахаться по лесам и разгребать проблемы, то в сиквеле он уже является частью группы.

Oh thank Horace, our comments system is up and running again Oh thank Horace, our comments system is up and running again

"Never read the comments," is a truth much-rehearsed by senior games journalists, but I have long since levelled-up past this axiom and entered into a new world of benevolent narcissism.

I always read the comments, for all commenters are my children.

True, occasionally my children say things like "I think your writing and opinions are appalling, and that you deserve to be repeatedly run over by a herd of deer", but it is the nature of children to rebel.

All of which is to say that the comments downtime during a tech transition this week has been painful for me.

I promise you the comments outage is unrelated.

Soon enough, you'll be able to play Halo 2's lost E3 demo on it, thanks to some lovely modders.

So yes, to celebrate Halo 2's 20th anniversary you can boot up Halo Infinite and jump into some Halo 2 maps.

There's Ascension, Midship, Lockout and many others that are good and dandy (you can actually play original Halo 2 maps via The Master Chief Collection).

Now, I also don't remember E3's 2003 demo because I was probably playing tag in the park or something.

To play the recreated E3 demo, you'll need to own Halo: The Master Chief Collection and download the free mod from the Steam Workshop when it arrives on November 9th.

Stop putting hats on your pets, asks Stardew Valley creator
Stop putting hats on your pets, asks Stardew Valley creator Stop putting hats on your pets, asks Stardew Valley creator

Back in the misty reaches of time (March) popular farming sim Stardew Valley got a big update that added more pets to the game (it also let you drink mayonaise but let's not get sidetracked).

Now, following many months of smaller updates to the game, it seems those hats are causing a problem.

"[If] you are experiencing performance issues in Stardew Valley 1.6, remove all hats from pets," said creator Eric Barone in a xeet.

Like all good games, Stardew Valley has had some funny bug fixes over the years, as can be seen in the many patch notes that accompany the regular updates.

Although splitting time between both that and Stardew updates is unsurprisingly difficult.

Steam's built-in game recording feature has been usable in beta since the summer, but it has now been properly launched for every user, following a client update to Steam yesterday.

The Steam update is accompanied by a post explaining the ins and outs of the game recording feature.

Our James tried out the recording tech during its beta and quite liked Valve's method when compared to other video capture programs.

It's easy to find your mp4 files, he says, and you can scrobble back through your footage instantly using the Steam overlay.

Elsewhere in the client update post, Valve note that this new client won't work for users still sporting Windows 7 or 8 (plus some old versions of Mac too).

But the real skeleton-related news is that the jangling from Skulltaker’s cape was made with actual bones.

There’s also a lovely video an employee slurping yoghurt to create the eating sounds for the colossal squig.

Maybe I’ll ask him about the bones, but do let me know if you’ve got any other questions.

I've spent quite a lot of today trying to figure out why, exactly, some of the monsters in the Monster Hunter Wilds beta looked like bundles of copulating pyramids slathered in crocodile gravy.

If every monster in Monster Hunter Wilds were that fancy all of the time, your computer would become a volcano.

But the explanation is consistent with what I dimly understand of memory management in other video games.

More importantly, the low poly monsters are just extremely good fun.

Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 single player reviewA single player campaign that offers the usual explosive set pieces, alongside undercover missions with countless tricks lifted from better games.

You're off the case, Case!

Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 has the weird distinction of being the only video game I know that includes fast travel for precisely one level.

And the weird hallucinogenic levels that channel Prey and Control do not have the interesting movement or playground-meets-labyrinth level design that makes those games work.

By the time the game's biggest bombs land (on a big statue of Saddam Hussein) Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 proves it has no surprises to offer.

It's an "innovative urban walking simulator" in which you play a disembodied pair of shoes, individually moved with a controller's analog sticks and trigger buttons.

Come release day in 2025, the game will "break stereotypes with its non-linear narrative and environmental storytelling, where stories unfold around every corner".

It all looks and sounds very jolly - far from the Qwoppy puzzler I was half-expecting from the press release, and more in keeping with the mayhem of Untitled Goose Game.

It occurs to me, after watching the trailer for Bambas!, that my shoes might resent this treatment, and wish to be free of me.

Factorio: Space Age reviewA predictably masterful expansion which repeatedly reinvents Factorio with each leg of its interplanetary journey.

Factorio: Space Age is a masterpiece, the final form of perhaps the most well-crafted building game I'll ever play.

If you never clicked with Factorio before, Space Age is unlikely to change anything for you, because you're unlikely to hang around long enough to see what Space Age truly has in store.

With Space Age, the journey is longer and more mind-boggling than ever, but there's also no better time to start.

All of Wube's signature depth and engineering quality is present in nearly every part of Space Age.

But I do wonder what it's like for archaeologists to discover and study something they shouldn't have; something with a disturbing secret - a curse, maybe.

Bite-sized horror game The Children Of Clay explores this idea and I'd like more of it, please.

Developer Balazs Ronyai created The Children Of Clay for a horror game jam in just a few days.

That's impressive enough already, but what's even more impressive is the quality.

Arrowhead just added new enemies, like the Impaler!

In past patches, seeing new threats emerge organically on the battlefield was a thrill.

Helldivers 2 is also in a somewhat unique situation; since propaganda from our in-game superiors is such a core part of the setting, it makes sense to have the game actively gaslight players about new enemies and updates.

As Helldivers 2 continues, I hope Arrowhead doesn’t shift to sharing upcoming surprises in blog posts and promotional materials.

I want to be absolutely shocked as these new enemies show up and turn my poor Helldiver into chunky salsa; it keeps things fresh.

The developers of Stalker 2, GSC Game World, released a massive 35-minute video to YouTube on Monday teasing the upcoming sequel of their beloved open-world shooter franchise.

In it, the Ukrainian team described how they leaned heavily into the authenticity of the experience.

That authenticity applies to the game’s real-world setting around the Chornobyl nuclear power plant.

STALKER 2 was originally expected on Sept. 5, but was delayed to Nov. 20.

The final game will be available on PC and Xbox Series X, where it will be included as part of the Xbox Game Pass program and available to all subscribers the day of its release.

Pick up the definitive Borderlands collection for its lowest price ever on Steam
Pick up the definitive Borderlands collection for its lowest price ever on Steam Pick up the definitive Borderlands collection for its lowest price ever on Steam

At this point, I think we can safely assume that nobody is going to spend their hard-earned money on tickets to see the Borderlands movie.

The reviews from fans and critics have been absolutely scathing, and frankly, I think we all deserved better.

Our first look at Netflix’s new One Piece anime shows how hard it is to adapt Oda’s opus Our first look at Netflix’s new One Piece anime shows how hard it is to adapt Oda’s opus

Netflix wanted to be in on the One Piece business — so much so that not only are they just doing live-action One Piece (with season 2 currently in production), they’re also working with Wit Studio to remake the One Piece anime.

The One Piece, said forthcoming anime that was first announced in December last year, would be running concurrently with the still airing One Piece anime.

One Piece now means something different than One Piece then, and a new anime could add a bit of polish to those first chapters.

The creative team at Wit wants very badly to get everything just right, as the new behind-the-scenes look at The One Piece above shows.

So how exactly do they capture what “One Piece” real…

And there’s no better way to get ready than by throwing on a few horror movies just as the sun starts setting a little earlier.

Every month we pick out a few of the best horror movies that Netflix currently has to offer.

It’s also one of the most violent, creepiest, and most disturbing horror movies of the last decade, which certainly makes it worth a look.

All of this makes The Wailing a staggering, ridiculously ambitious horror movie, and unlike just about any other movie ever made.

Cave diving is dangerous enough under the best circumstances, but as you might expect, this particular group of caves is absolutely full of very scary sharks.

Hi-Fi Rush is available on PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X.

Few things are better than settling down with a good book, but sometimes the settling is easier said than done.

For all those times, there’s no better place to turn than audiobooks.

All these options making picking your next audiobook a bit of a chore, but don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.

The dramatized audiobooks for A Court of Thorns and Roses are probably the most popular option — they’re cast with different voice actors for each character, and the audio-engineered foley sounds help you envision the scenes as they happen.

It’s a delicious listen even if you don’t have the right setting, of course.

У Playrix в софтлонче находится как минимум семь новых игр У Playrix в софтлонче находится как минимум семь новых игр

Поскольку игра в данный момент уже доступна в 10 регионах, то можно сделать предположение, что она близка к релизу.

Тут за основу взяли такой жанр, как экспедиция, в котором, напомним, традиционным ограничителем потребления контента выступает механика энергии.

Игра вышла в софтлонч с аккаунта Playrix в этом октябре.

Аналогичный кор и как будто схожая мета — проходим уровни, получаем звезды, которые обмениваем на сюжетную прогрессию.

Проект сильно отличается по визуальному подходу от других игр компании, как и в целом от других merge.

Microsoft начала тестирование нового чат-бота с искусственным интеллектом в качестве помощника техподдержки для Xbox.

Корпорация уверена, что виртуальный помощник поможет игрокам быстрее и эффективнее решать распространенные проблемы, связанные с работой платформы.

Теперь игроки смогут задавать голосовые или текстовые вопросы на естественном языке, а ИИ-ассистент будет подбирать ответы из базы знаний саппорта Xbox.

По информации The Verge, это лишь первый шаг на пути к более масштабной интеграции искусственного интеллекта в экосистему Xbox.

Инсайдеры сообщали изданию о планах Microsoft использовать ИИ в создании игрового контента, а также для модерации и советов игрокам во время геймплея.

С момента запуска в октябре 2019-го Call of Duty: Mobile достигла отметки в один миллиард загрузок по всему миру.

Call of Duty: MobileСейчас в Call of Duty: Mobile стартовал 10-й сезон Battle Pass.

По отчету Activision Blizzard за второй квартал 2023-го, на тот момент суммарные расходы игроков в CoD Mobile превысили 3 млрд долларов.

Такие результаты выглядят впечатляюще особенно на фоне недавнего релиза другой мобильной игры Activision — Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile, запущенной 21 марта 2024-го.

Несмотря на ожидания, ее показатели пока значительно скромнее: игра заработала 10 млн долларов при 22 млн загрузок, по данным сервиса AppMagic.

С момента релиза в 2018 году игра разошлась тиражом более 8 млн копий по всему миру.

Последние два миллиона копий были проданы с февраля по октябрь.

Первый был обусловлен анонсом сиквела (и на фоне скидки 80%) — тогда число одновременных игроков превысило 21 тысячу.

Второй подъем произошел в конце августа благодаря, опять же, рекордной скидке в 90% и бесплатным выходным.

Сейчас Warhorse Studios совместно с издателем Deep Silver активно готовится к выпуску прямого продолжения — Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, релиз которого намечен на 11 февраля 2025 года.

Back in 2020, Finji CEO Rebekah Saltsman and creative director Adam Saltsman were figuring out how to follow-up Overland.

However, at its heart Usual June is about championing marginalised people and their stories.

For Saltsman, it was important for marginalised players to form a connection with the game and see themselves reflected in its characters.

Another way to attract players to Usual June was by utilising familiar genres.

"We were already making [Usual June] at this point, but thought: 'Oh, that's a really cool touch point'."

The European Court of Justice (ECJ) is the highest court in the European Union.

The judgement it delivered on 17 October 2024 – ruling against Sony in a dispute over cheats provided through Datel's Action Replay for PSP – looks like one at first sight.

For publishers of single-player games wanting to act against cheat software, the ECJ Action Replay decision is not good news.

This aspect was only briefly discussed in the German Action Replay decisions, and not at all by the ECJ.

It might also be possible to validly agree in the EULAs that the game must not be used with cheat software.

Gohan Black is an original character for Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero, although I’m sure there exists plenty of fanfics already out there based on the idea.

Remember a few years ago when Netflix dipped its toes into the world of video games by creating interactive choose-your-own-adventure movies and TV shows?

Well, almost all of those odd experiments are being removed from the service with little warning next month.

And almost all of those interactive titles will be removed from Netflix on December 2.

AdvertisementOn November 5, The Verge confirmed with Netflix that 20 of the 24 previously produced interactive specials and shows would not be available to watch after December 1.

Meanwhile, Netflix is also backing away from video game production after spending a lot of money and time trying to break into the industry.

In promotion of its horror smash hit Smile 2, Paramount Pictures has set up a website where you can watch some of the film for free if you shoot the biggest smile into your computer’s camera.

Yes, you have to maintain a smile while watching blood, guts, and bullets fly around.

Once you establish the type of smile that gets you access to the footage, take a selfie with your phone and simply hold it up to your webcam.

The site recognizes it as a legitimate smile, allowing you to freely watch the horrific scene with all of the fear, disgust, and disbelief that should paint your face.

You’ve got till November 11 to pick up Death Stranding Director’s Cut for $20 on Steam, and I think it’s the perfect game for the moment.

AdvertisementIn Death Stranding, you literally walk across the country.

It’s kind of abridged, because that version of this game would take even longer than Death Stranding currently is, but that is the literal goal here.

AdvertisementWhen Death Stranding was first released in 2019, it wasn’t the most popular thing in the world.

Maybe we all ought to sit down with Death Stranding and learn a thing or two from Sam Bridges so that we can sidestep the cataclysms in our own lives.

Helldivers 2 might one day get some crossover content based on other franchises like Warhammer or Star Wars, but the director behind the hit sci-fi co-op shooter has not confirmed anything yet and wants to make sure they don’t “dilute” the Helldivers series.

And being a popular live-service online video game, you might expect some Fortnite-like crossover content to appear in Helldivers 2 in the near future.

But the game’s creative director, who recently shared a list of IP he’d “love to take on,” made it clear that these are just fun “musings” and shouldn’t be taken too seriously.

Warner Bros. has big plans for the Harry Potter universe.

According to the head of Warner Bros. Games, both projects will coordinate on “storytelling elements” moving forward.

He notes that the success of “Hogwarts Legacy” helped stoke confidence that the time was right to make a major Potter push: “The rest of the company was very curious about what we helped to unlock with ‘Hogwarts Legacy’ last year.”AdvertisementWarner Bros.

Of all the games I’ve played so far in 2024—and there are a lot—the one that made me feel the absolute worst was Mouthwashing.

That leaves him and the four other crew members of the Tulpar left to deal with their own existential crises over the likelihood of their impending deaths.

It’s also a set up for what becomes a surrealist trip through each crew member’s lives, hopes, and struggles.

To which, I have to ask, have you played a Dragon Age game?

Dragon Age II is one of the most prolific examples of the “playersexual” romance that makes all its romance options bisexual.

BioWare even responded to that line of thinking, saying Dragon Age II’s free-for-all romances “are not for ‘the straight male gamer’.

They’re for everyone.” Dragon Age is no stranger to queerness, but it’s no stranger to controversy surrounding it, either.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard hasn’t even been out a week and it’s become such a minefield to talk about.

As reported by Watertoon, the code of the Nintendo Switch Online playtest, which was held in the past few days for a new unannounced game, reportedly features support for mesh shaders and 4K resolution, neither of them supported by the current console.

A YouTuber has now shared his expectations for the M4 Ultra chip and how it would perform against the RTX 4090 in both OpenCL and Vulkan.

The GeekBench 6 compute scores for the M4 Max were reported to be 192,812, and based on the latest numbers, the M4 Ultra could blow the RTX 4090 out of the water.

However, Yuryev accounted for only 70 percent of the scaling for the M4 Ultra chip, expecting a slight shift in the scaling.

With these numbers in hand, we can safely presume that Apple's forthcoming M4 Ultra chip will surpass RTX 4090 in terms of graphical output.

The M4 Ultra chip is expected to launch next year with the release of Apple's highly anticipated Mac Pro and Mac Studio.

Affordable Apple Vision Pro Is Reportedly Being Considered With Two Display Options, With Preference Being Given To The One That Is Thinner And Brighter Affordable Apple Vision Pro Is Reportedly Being Considered With Two Display Options, With Preference Being Given To The One That Is Thinner And Brighter

The less expensive version of the $3,499 Apple Vision Pro might have had its production timeline severely delayed beyond 2027, but that does not mean there are various methods being explored to reduce its production costs, starting with the display.

The process being considered for the budget-friendly Apple Vision Pro involves a low temperature to avoid damaging the OLED and is considered more complexIt was earlier reported that Japan Display had supplied Apple with OLED samples with a pixel density of 1,500PPI, making it less than half of the Apple Vision Pro’s 3,386PPI figure.

The Elec reports that Apple has two choices, with a preference towards an approach that would not just make the d…

According to two prominent insiders, Fortnite Season OG will return permanently in December.

They also said all Fortnite Chapter 1 seasons would return monthly with an OG item pool.

Fortnite Season OG returned for the first time last November, marking record player numbers for Epic.

Fortnite's comeback, which started with Season OG, was largely responsible for a much healthier state of the company's finances.

The Mate 70 series is rumored to launch this month, with Huawei likely equipping the new lineup with a new chipset called the Kirin 9100.

Thankfully, it will not rely on the older 7nm process as the Kirin 9000S either, as the latest specifications reveal the CPU cluster, GPU, and employed lithography.

It is highly possible that both Chinese firms worked behind closed doors to develop a 6nm process, as an X user with the handle @TechHome100 reveals that the Kirin 9100 will use it.

As for the GPU, the Kirin 9100 will be stuck with the Maleoon 910, the same one that was a part of last year’s Kirin 9000S.

Regarding performance, the Kirin 9100 will no doubt be slower than the competition, but as…

Alan Wake 2 PlayStation 5 Pro Comparison Video Highlights Ray Tracing, Better Shadows, Volumetric Lighting and Fog Alan Wake 2 PlayStation 5 Pro Comparison Video Highlights Ray Tracing, Better Shadows, Volumetric Lighting and Fog

An Alan Wake 2 PlayStation 5 Pro comparison video was shared online today, highlighting the improvements made possible by the soon-to-be-released mid-generation console by Sony.

Alan Wake 2 launched last year on PC and consoles and continues to be one of the most stunning survival horror games released in recent years.

With its great atmosphere and tight story pacing, Alan Wake 2: The Lake House retains the same elements that made the base game so engaging.

The lack of significant new mechanics and its very short length, however, make it a worthwhile purchase only for the most die-hard fans of Alan Wake 2 and the Remedy Connected Universe.

Alan Wake 2 is now available on PC via the Epic Gam…

Elden Ring PlayStation 5 Pro Test Highlights How The Console Can Brute Force Improvements Even Without Dedicated Patch
Elden Ring PlayStation 5 Pro Test Highlights How The Console Can Brute Force Improvements Even Without Dedicated Patch Elden Ring PlayStation 5 Pro Test Highlights How The Console Can Brute Force Improvements Even Without Dedicated Patch

An early Elden Ring PlayStation 5 Pro test was shared online, showing how the console can brute force improvements in games even without a dedicated patch.

In Quality mode, on the other hand, performance is shakier but still manages to be close to 60 frames per second while constantly running at native 4K resolution.

The biggest performance improvements, however, are seen with ray tracing, which is not surprising considering the console's GPU improvements over the base model.

Given how Elden Ring's performance on the base PlayStation 5 isn't as solid as it should have been, this is definitely good news, as a dedicated PS5 Pro patch would definitely make 4K resolution, 60 FPS gameplay possib…

What if we introduced something newer to the mix, like A Plague Tale: Innocence?

Well, we are glad you asked because the Snapdragon 8 Elite can deliver more than 60FPS, making it more than double what its immediate predecessor, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, could achieve.

Both the Snapdragon 8 Elite and Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 GPUs show 100 percent utilization, meaning that there should not be any performance bottlenecks.

As for the framerate, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 obtained 24FPS, while the Snapdragon 8 Elite ran circles around its predecessor, running A Plague Tale: Innocence at an astonishing 64FPS, resulting in a 266 percent difference between a single generation.

Mobile devices like ultrabooks, tablets, and handheld gaming consoles are getting more popular each year. Even if we look only at handheld consoles, a year ago, we had one popular option: Steam Deck. Right now, there is also ASUS ROG Ally and Lenovo Legion GO, and soon MSI will join with their new product. Most of consoles and other devices are sold with lower capacity or simply slower storage, so it's not a surprise that many owners think about replacing the storage, which more often is M.2 SSD in a user-friendly and tiny 2230 form factor. For those users, Corsair designed the reviewed today MP600 Core Mini at a high 2TB capacity.

The MP700 PRO is one of the fastest M.2 SSDs we can buy in stores, and even though it shares the same Phison controllers as all the fastest PCIe 5.0 SSDs, the MP700 PRO's design is improved compared to the competition. Of course, I won't share everything in the introduction, but you can expect some exceptional results.

The result is Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind, a love letter to the franchise which launches on December 10 on PS5 and PS4.

None of them seem too major, which is good news, but there does appear to be some performance issues cropping up for some players.

"PSA: if you are experiencing performance issues in Stardew Valley 1.6, remove all hats from pets," Stardew Valley creator Eric Barone posted on X .

(Image credit: Eric Barone (Twitter))This is important, but maybe not for the reason you might think.

Yes, degraded game performance is a problem, but the real issue here is the pets who are no longer wearing hats.

Barone hasn't yet commented on the likelihood of that actually happening, but given his can't stop, won't stop approach to Stardew Valley, I won't be at all surprised if it does.

Arcane, Riot's two-season League of Legends animated series, reportedly cost $250 million to make Arcane, Riot's two-season League of Legends animated series, reportedly cost $250 million to make

A new Variety report says Arcane, Riot's League of Legends-based animated series, cost a whopping $250 million for just two seasons, an astounding pile of money that makes it "far and away" the most expensive animated series ever produced for television or streaming platforms.

Arcane will comprise 18 episodes in total when its two-season run ends, meaning the overall spend works out to just shy of $14 million per episode.

Riot also spent $60 million promoting the first season of Arcane, according to the report, which was far more than Netflix—where the series actually ran—spent on it.

The report goes deep into Riot's seemingly stalled aspirations to grow into an entertainment company beyond…

A new patent application from Sony for a dedicated rewind button for games consoles has been spotted by Tech4Gamers (via Tom's Hardware).

Sony's patent says, "the user is able to enter the rewind mode from the live game play using one or more controller inputs to view recent game play (e.g.

and returning to live game play afterwards."

This "universal" notion is repeated numerous times throughout the patent, implying that the button is designed to work with all games.

There's also no indication if, when or how the rewind button might be implemented.

AMD has told us not to expect an end of life announcement for the Ryzen 7800X3D "anytime in the near future" despite the launch of a replacement for the erstwhile best CPU for gaming.

Donny Wolligrowski told us in a recent briefing that he "would expect it in the market for a while".

Which is grand, because AMD's Ryzen 7 7800X3D has been our pick as the best gaming CPU for a hot minute, even if that crown has slipped due to the recent launch of the second-gen 3D V-Cache chip, the Ryzen 7 9800X3D.

They're both AM5 CPUs, for one, and the Ryzen 7 7800X3D is able to deliver gaming performance not a million miles short of the new champ, and certainly way beyond any comparable $350 processor.

You can still buy a cheap gaming chair and get something decent for your money.

I thought I was good at Deadlock until its unexpected ranked distribution proved that I'm worse than mid I thought I was good at Deadlock until its unexpected ranked distribution proved that I'm worse than mid

A few weeks ago, Valve announced a new ranked mode for Deadlock, which grouped players into 11 ranks that each had six levels.

The first rank I got in Deadlock was Ritualist 3, which, for context, is just below the middle rank of Emissary.

But according to this week's ranked distribution, I'm not as good as I thought I was.

There are only around 18,724 players currently ranked below me, while there are a whopping 55,638 players ranked above me—imagine finding out that you're worse than mid on a Wednesday morning, appalling.

The slightly weird distribution also means that behind Eternus, the rarest rank in Deadlock is actually Seeker 1, as pointed out by gammaton32 in a Reddit post.

That's not to say that Windows Intelligence would necessarily replace Copilot branding, though.

More likely is that Windows Intelligence subsumes Copilot, given the latter won't constitute all of the AI functionality Windows has to offer.

Take that, Apple: Nvidia is once again the world's most valuable company at $3.43 trillion Take that, Apple: Nvidia is once again the world's most valuable company at $3.43 trillion

As I peck out these very words on a dilapidated MacBook Air M1, Nvidia has once again overtaken Apple as the world's most valuable company.

Of course, share prices of even the biggest companies can be volatile.

But the more often Nvidia sits atop the table, the more valid its claim to be the world's most valuable company.

That status, of course, is largely down to booming sales on Nvidia AI chips, used for training and running all those large language models like ChatGPT.

To put some numbers on that, Nvidia sold around $22 billion in AI GPUs for datacenters in its most recent quarter.

In the third part of Konami's ongoing Metal Gear Solid Legacy series (put out to gin up enthusiasm for MGS Delta), David Hayter finally sat down with Eva's voice actor as the studio finally pulled the lid off her identity.

Turns out it was Jodi Benson this whole time, as in the voice actor who played Ariel in The Little Mermaid, Barbie in Toy Story, and Thumbelina (in Thumbelina).

Also, neither Benson nor Hayter had ever done a voice-acted love scene before.

Well, turns out, the game has a killer unique ring for you that's basically best-in-slot for any stagger build, whether you're a based Slayer like me or something lame like a Spellblade Mage (sorry, Robin).

It's called the Call of the Hall ring, and it's your new best friend.

(Image credit: Bioware / EA)To get your mitts on this thing, all you need to do is—after unlocking Taash as a companion—wait until the game gives you The Hall of Valor side quest.

Nintendo Would Rather "Organically Expand The Organisation" Than Rely Solely On Acquisitions
Nintendo Would Rather "Organically Expand The Organisation" Than Rely Solely On Acquisitions Nintendo Would Rather "Organically Expand The Organisation" Than Rely Solely On Acquisitions

As a part of its recent Corporate Management Policy Briefing for FY2025, Nintendo has reiterated its stance on mergers and acquisitions.

Namely, while future acquisitions are never off the table, it would rather "organically expand the organisation".

In an age where smaller studios are constantly snatched up by the gaming giants, Nintendo has made very few acquisitions in recent years.

In fact, since 2021, the studio has only pulled out the merger net on a handful of occasions.

Elsewhere in the briefing, Nintendo made it official that 'Switch 2' will be backwards compatible, finally putting all hopes of 'Mario Kart 8 Deluxer' to rest... unless...

Vampire Survivors Dev Doesn't Want A "Dramatically Different" Scope For Future Games
Vampire Survivors Dev Doesn't Want A "Dramatically Different" Scope For Future Games Vampire Survivors Dev Doesn't Want A "Dramatically Different" Scope For Future Games

Last month's excellent 'Ode to Castlevania' DLC has got us diving into Poncle's beautiful bullet hell, Vampire Survivors, all over again.

And yet, whatever comes next, it seems we shouldn't expect it to blow the current project's scope out of the water.

Instead, Galante claims, he'd rather keep working at his own level: "It would have a higher budget," he told Metro, "but it wouldn’t be dramatically different in terms of scope, than Vampire Survivors".

But in terms of scope, I don’t want to suddenly start making games that are bigger.

All those things are on a completely different scope and something I’m not comfortable with.

So, I really like the Stardew Valley board game, so I wanted to hear what your hobbies are outside of video games.

The Stardew Valley board game was kind of inspired by... Have you ever played Eldritch Horror?

We even put on the Stardew Valley soundtrack and it works perfectly.

Now, if the name and premise sound somewhat familiar, it's likely because Bear Games has also leaned heavily on the classic Mega Drive / Genesis title Comix Zone for inspiration.

In fact, the studio even goes to far as to christen its new title as a 'comixvania' (excuse us, we feel a bit ill).

Nintendo has released its Q&A transcription for the recent financial briefing, and it contains a rather humorous interaction between an investor and legendary creator Shigeru Miyamoto in which the former calls Miyamoto a "genius".

Naturally, given Miyamoto's tendency to view his accomplishments with a humble attitude, he was quick to dispute such a lofty label.

From the outside, it seems that Miyamoto-san is a genius, which is why he continues to create hits.

Miyamoto: You used the word "genius" in your question, but after my annual lectures for about 100-200 new employees and mid-career employees, I often hear people say, "I wondered what kind of person Miyamoto was, but I was relieved to …

This news also reiterates that Switch 2's form factor will be broadly the same as the current console.

Will your current catalogue of Switch games gain performance or resolution boosts from the upgraded hardware?

The current Switch isn't too far from offering that, with only a handful of Zeldas and Marios, primarily the DS/3DS entries, not playable on Switch in some form.

Might we arrive at a glorious nexus point where all series entries ever made are available to play on a single system?

It also means that Nintendo is going to have to up its game with future entries in its core series.

There's no doubt that the Nintendo Switch has seen its fair share of success in Japan, North America and Europe, but is it really a worldwide phenomenon?

This increased interest in Switch has meant that these markets now contribute 11.9% of total hardware sales, up from 5.4% in FY2017 (which included the 3DS and Wii U alongside the Switch, let's not forget).

Nintendo's expansion into these other markets has come in a variety of ways.

The company boasts that many first-party games are now available in more languages, allowing "consumers to enjoy titles previously hindered by language barriers".

Of course, Nintendo is still relying on the ol' faithful big three of Japan, North America and Eur…

According to the company's latest financial briefing, however, some of its more niche franchises have reportedly seen "dramatic sales growth" on Nintendo Switch.

When you look at Xenoblade Chronicles, for instance, Nintendo launched Xenoblade Chronicles 3D on the New 3DS (one of very few exclusives to the New model) and Xenoblade Chronicles X on the Wii U, the latter of which launched on a console base that maxed out at just 13.56 million units.

These moments define how events unfolded in the past and determine how it all ends in the present,” the film’s Horizon Store page says.

“We wanted to explore how advanced tech affects the human experience, and how we connect to one another,” said Avi Winkler, Creative Dire…

Elsewhere, don't expect any enhancements or other major changes on PlayStation VR2.

Phasmophobia Devs Have No Plans For Quest 3 Port Yet
Phasmophobia Devs Have No Plans For Quest 3 Port Yet Phasmophobia Devs Have No Plans For Quest 3 Port Yet

Despite a successful launch on consoles, including finally coming to PS VR 2, the Phasmophobia developer has no plans for a Quest 3 version of the game.

Since then, the Quest 2 has come and (almost) gone, and we've seen the release of the Quest 3 and 3S headsets too, but don't place your bets on a Phasmophobia standalone version anytime soon.

Speaking to VideoGamer in a recent interview, Phasmophobia developer Ben Lavender acknowledged the high demand for a Quest version of the game.

While a Quest version of the game may happen, it will certainly be a post-1.0 deal.

In our recent Phasmophobia PS VR 2 review, we said that "One of Steam's biggest horror hits feels right at home on PS VR2 and …

Batman: Arkham Shadow Devs Talk Rescue Vision, Remote Work & New Game+
Batman: Arkham Shadow Devs Talk Rescue Vision, Remote Work & New Game+ Batman: Arkham Shadow Devs Talk Rescue Vision, Remote Work & New Game+

"We’d meet every day for at least an hour discussing ideas, assigning work and problem solving to get this game out the door," Payton said.

Instead, Bruce Wayne’s company reveals Rescue Vision, a VR headset-like technology intended for first responders to help those in need even through the rubble of a fallen building.

With how long it’s been since the last Arkham game, we wanted to add some nice touchstones to characters who aren’t included in the mainline Arkham Shadow.

With staff spread across four time zones in the UK, New York, Seattle and Japan, Payton said that splitting development globally incurred some inefficiencies.

When production started on Arkham during the early days of the …

visionOS 2.2 Beta Brings Wide & Ultrawide Mac Virtual Display To Apple Vision Pro visionOS 2.2 Beta Brings Wide & Ultrawide Mac Virtual Display To Apple Vision Pro

The Wide and Ultrawide modes for Mac Virtual Display announced by Apple back in June have now arrived in the first visionOS 2.2 Beta.

Because of this, and because the experience has high quality and low latency, we strongly praised Mac Virtual Display in our review of Vision Pro.

0:00 / 0:15 1×Until now though, Mac Virtual Display has been limited to a 16:9 widescreen virtual display.

And for all three modes, Mac Virtual Display is now curved.

Apple says the ultrawide Mac Virtual Display has 8K horizontal resolution, as if you have two 4K monitors side by side.

Only One PSVR 2 Game Confirmed for PS5 Pro Enhancements at Launch, VR Performance Patch Expected Later
Only One PSVR 2 Game Confirmed for PS5 Pro Enhancements at Launch, VR Performance Patch Expected Later Only One PSVR 2 Game Confirmed for PS5 Pro Enhancements at Launch, VR Performance Patch Expected Later

PlayStation 5 Pro is launching on November 7th, priced at $700, and while Sony is boasting a list of over 50 games getting day-one enhancements, so far only one PSVR 2 title has been confirmed to get a launch day bump: Kayak VR: Mirage from Better Than Life.

The ultimate expectation is PS5 Pro will allow all PSVR 2 titles to run at higher frame rates and possibly without reprojection, which supplements lower frame rates with ‘synthetic frames’ to reach a higher perceived refresh rate.

PSSR isn’t coming to VR games at launch though; a patch made specifically available to PSVR 2 game developers is expected “in the future,” Sony’s lead PlayStation system architect Mark Cerny told CNET back in …

Apple Reportedly Delays Cheaper Vision Pro Beyond 2027, M5 Chip Refresh May Arrive Instead
Apple Reportedly Delays Cheaper Vision Pro Beyond 2027, M5 Chip Refresh May Arrive Instead Apple Reportedly Delays Cheaper Vision Pro Beyond 2027, M5 Chip Refresh May Arrive Instead

Apple may be taking a beat before it releases a cheaper follow-up to Vision Pro, which would more broadly appeal to consumers, instead releasing a hardware refresh next year that includes the new M5 chipset.

According to independent tech analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple has delayed the cheaper version of Vision Pro “beyond 2027”.

Still, Kuo’s claim that Apple is pushing forward with what will surely be an equally expensive hardware refresh to the $3,500 Vision Pro may not be so farfetched.

In the midst of recent supply chain rumors claiming Apple has sharply slowed Vision Pro production, Apple CEO Tim Cook was keen to remind doubters in a concurrent Wall Street Journal interview that Vision Pro …
