It’s safe to say that New World Aeternum, the enhanced relaunch of Amazon Games’ MMORPG, has injected some new life into the game. Maybe not to the extent that we all hoped, but with its expansion to consoles and Steam numbers looking a bit healthier, it’s certainly not been an entirely detrimental move. To further […]
According to Nexus Mods, the most popular The Witcher 3 creation is a HD texture pack. Clocking in at an immense 5.6 million downloads, this project reworks a countless amount of the game’s models and textures to make them look better, without sacrificing CD Projekt Red’s artistic intent. The mod made a stunning game look even better, […]
The Path of Exile 2 early access launch is almost upon us. We’ve already had a spectacular year for ARPG fans, with the Last Epoch release a roaring success and Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred a dramatic upgrade on the base game. Now, the long-anticipated sequel to one of the best PC games of all […]

Somewhat short but definitely sweet, Starward Industries’ The Invincible is one of my favorite exploration games of recent times. Now it’s just revealed its next title, an “anti-combat” RPG that lets you battle the elements in an active volcano range. Once again oozing with style, Dante’s Ring is definitely getting on my wishlist. From its […]
Death plays a strange role in videogames. You’re always trying to avoid it, but at the same time, it’s basically inconsequential. You might lose a bit of progress, but mostly, it just means hitting quickload (and maybe deploying a few cuss words). Dark Souls, Elden Ring, and the rest of the FromSoftware oeuvre frame death […]
