Humble Choice slashes 20% off Suicide Squad, Tekken 8 & Persona 3 Reload – Dexerto
Humble Choice slashes 20% off Suicide Squad, Tekken 8 & Persona 3 Reload The latest offer from Humble Choice includes 20% off for certain games throughout February, and the first lineup just got announced. With February being a fairly stacked month for big releases, Humble has taken advantage of the situation. Its subscription service, Humble Choice, not only allows you to nab some games but also takes 20% off some recent releases. Subscriptions cost $11.99 a month, and if you subscribe now you’ll be able to grab the tail end of January’s selection. This included Marvel’s Midnight Suns as its headliner, along with some other titles like Two Point Campus. Next month’s games haven’t been officially revealed, but a leak has said to expect Scorn, Life is Strange and Destroy All Humans! 2. Humble Choice cuts 20% off big titles for February Of course, the games in question that you can save cash on include the recently released Persona 3 Reload. The remake brings some major quality-of-life fixes to the classic RPG, as well as spruces it up with a fresh coat of paint. It managed to score a 5/5 in our review. Meanwhile, the divisive Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is also under the same offer. If you’re not wanting to purchase it after paying for a subscription, Green Man Gaming has it for 18% off at the moment as well. Fighting game fans aren’t being left out either, as Tekken 8 is included in the offer. It’s not just limited to the base version of the game, but all the way up to the Ultimate edition. Again, there’s 19% to be saved over at Game Billet if you’re not down for the subscription fee. The other titles included in the deal are the upcoming Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered and the survival game Pacific Drive. Pacific Drive seems to be a small outlier in the sea of survival games, as it focuses on you driving a car as you explore the game. The last title is Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, an action RPG centered around the tale of two lovers. With the Humble Choice line up being leaked, if you do intend to subscribe for some extra games in your back pocket, now would be a great time to do so as it’s prepped for a refresh.

Hulk vs Kratos trends as fans debate God of War and Marvel matchup – Dexerto
Hulk vs Kratos trends as fans debate God of War and Marvel matchup Sony/DisneyA hypothetical fight between God of War’s Kratos and The Incredible Hulk has caused a major rift amongst fanboys as they debate who’d emerge victorious. It’s rare that we ever get to see dream battles outside of the odd versus movie like Freddy vs Jason, video games like Alien vs Predator and Super Smash Bros, or comic series such as RoboCop Versus The Terminator. Normally, these issues come down to who owns the rights to said properties and when they do happen, they rarely even end with a clear winner, but that hasn’t stopped fans from constantly arguing about potential matchups. The latest viral internet fight stems from a post on X where a user uploaded an AI photo of Kratos and Hulk staring each other down, claiming that The Ghost of Sparta would “beat the sh*t” out of Bruce Banner’s angry, green form. Internet fights over Kratos vs Hulk matchup After the thread was posted, users across the internet began to debate the fight in the comments as the conversation trended on the site. Many believed that the Marvel films gave people an underwhelming look at the true power of The Hulk. “MCU nerfed the Hulk hard. If we talking bout comic book Hulk then Hulk wins easily,” one said. “I’ll never forgive the MCU for the irreversible damage it has done to Hulk image.” “Non MCU Hulk will savagely destroy,” echoed another. Some tried to use the MCU to make their case for Kratos in the fight and were met with instant backlash for not bringing up the comic version of the hero. “Thanos broke [Hulk] with like two a half Infinity Stones. Kratos a whole two different Gods from two different mythologies,” a GoW supporter argued. “The Marvel movie Hulk character is not the same from the comics,” someone else shot back. “Kratos is a damn god Hulk is an experiment!” another chimed in. Unfortunately, we may never end up seeing a true battle between these two, but considering how viral the internet argument became, Sony and Disney may want to consider teaming up for such a project in the future.

Huge MultiVersus leak confirms Rick and Morty stage & fighter on the way – Dexerto
Huge MultiVersus leak confirms Rick and Morty stage & fighter on the way Warner Bros. / Adult SwimAlthough still in its Open Beta period for now, details surrounding Warner Bros. fighting game MultiVersus and its future slate of content continue to slip through the cracks. This time, Rick and Morty is in focus as the hit Adult Swim show appears set to join the game. Following on from a Closed Alpha test back in May, MultiVersus is currently in the midst of its Beta with early access now live and the floodgates soon opening for all players on July 26. With players now filing into the fighting game, they’re able to go hands-on with a wide range of Warner Bros. characters. From Arya Stark to Bugs Bunny and Harley Quinn, it’s a diverse roster full of iconic figures. Though even months out from a potential launch and plans for future additions continue to leak across social media. Through the very first test on May 19, we learned of more than a dozen names datamined from the game’s files. This list covered the likes of Gandalf, Harry Potter, King Kong, and even LeBron James. However it now appears players have confirmation on two particular names, as Rick and Morty content has now appeared online. After both Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith appeared in the previous round of leaks, it’s now all but certain they’re a lock for MultiVersus. New gameplay surfaced on July 20, showcasing Rick in action. Throughout the brief clip we can see his range of abilities, including a powerful blaster, a Mr. Meeseeks summon, along with a portal gun. But not only was this our first look at his character model and unique moveset, it also revealed an upcoming Rick and Morty stage as well. Fans of the series will recognize the larger-than-life soundstage and ominous backdrop from Season 2’s ‘Get Schwifty’ episode. Now, it serves as a battleground for Warner Bros. characters in the upcoming fighter. Exactly when this content is set to go live remains to be seen. Given there’s still no concrete release date for MultiVersus beyond the fact it’s slated for 2022, we’ll have to wait and see. Rick and Morty could certainly make it in time for release, or they could feature as part of the first post-launch DLC. Regardless, we’ll be sure to update you here once further details emerge.

Huge Warhammer 40K: Darktide update brings penance system changes, new puzzles & rewards – Dexerto
Huge Warhammer 40K: Darktide update brings penance system changes, new puzzles & rewards FatsharkWarhammer 40K: Darktide has enjoyed a relatively quiet start to life in 2024. All of that is seemingly about to change in late April as the first major update of the year rolls out a metric ton of additions to the game including a terrifying new foe to defeat. In a lengthy post on the official Darktide website, developer Fatshark confirmed that the next update, known as the Path of Redemption, will release sometime later this month. The headline news is that major alterations to the penance system are on the way, including the Mourningstar which will serve as the new hub for these milestones. Additionally, there will be more than 200 further penances added to the existing offering. The fun does not stop there. New challenges, puzzles, collectibles and rewards are all part of a package that is one of the most extensive that the game has seen in some time. Though the developer noted that this isn’t everything they have planned for 2024, it should serve as a tentpole for later additions. The full list of upcoming changes is as follows: A new free way to collect rewards: penance points will now count towards a progression track composed of 40+ tiers, allowing players to unlock earnable rewards. – A new home for penances in the Mourningstar: Hestia will be in charge of keeping a record of the rejects’ penances and will join the rest of the Mourningstar crew in voice-overs during missions. – 200+ new penances: a slew of new penances will be added to the game for players to complete. These will be divided into new categories. – 100+ new earnable rewards: these will include new insignias, portrait frames, emotes, poses, weapon trinkets, and cosmetics such as the loyalist Moebian 6th outfits. – New reward type – Titles: allowing players to brag about their most impressive achievements. – Improved penance UI and menu: allowing players to better track penances and progress toward rewards. – New puzzles, challenges, and collectibles: we are adding several puzzles across Tertium Hive for players to discover and solve. – New enemy: the Dreg Tox Bomber will join the ranks of the heretics, hurling Blight Grenades filled with toxic fumes. – New condition: Pox Gas will join the roster of conditions that can spread across Tertium. Recommendation: don’t breathe too deeply. – The Personality Scourge: players will have the option to change additional aspects of your operative (background, height, name, and voice) in exchange for ordo dockets. – There is no specific release date attached the update yet but it will release before April comes to a close.

Huge Deadlock change makes farming Souls easier than ever after September 12 patch – Dexerto
Huge Deadlock change makes farming Souls easier than ever after September 12 patch ValveDeadlock devs have made a massive change that will make farming souls much easier thanks to a new Soul Orb update in the September 12 patch. The patch, which dropped out of the blue in typical Valve fashion, brought tons of changes from an update to the map, various hero and item balances that will no doubt shake up tier lists, the removal of timezones, and much more. Part of the massive update is a big change to souls, especially to Soul Orbs which will make laning much easier. In the September 12 update, Soul Orbs now “favor the claimer rather than the denier when both impact within a very narrow window of each other.” Essentially, if you kill a creep and attempt to claim the Soul Orb, but an enemy attempts to steal it from you at the same time, the game will favor you rather than them. With this change, it should make securing your own Soul Orbs much easier, especially if you’re just a beginner learning the ropes of the mechanic. You won’t be punished as enemies yoink the rewards of your hard work, at least not as often. What this also means is if you’re looking to deny as many Soul Orbs as possible, you will need to actively be on the lookout and steal it well before the enemy claims it. Shooting too close together won’t do the tricky anymore. Overall, the change is a much-welcome addition to the MOBA, even if it isn’t the biggest, as it will give beginners a little bit more leeway when it comes to securing Soul Orbs and farming. Also for anybody who could’ve sworn they secured their own Soul Orbs but for some reason the enemy denied it, this should help moving forward. As for other quality-of-life updates, the new patch made some changes to the minimap, revamping it to make it simpler with new hero icons, and there is a new reporting system in place to keep toxic players in check, amongst many bug fixes.

HoYoverse urged to combat mobile storage problems with a much-needed change – Dexerto
HoYoverse urged to combat mobile storage problems with a much-needed change HoYoversePlayers who have installed Genshin Impact, Honkai Star Rail, and Zenless Zone Zero on mobile are urging HoYoverse to add a feature to help with storage woes. With the arrival of Zenless Zone Zero and numerous meaty game updates for Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail, mobile players are beginning to find their mobile devices are struggling to keep up with the storage demands. This is particularly true for those with older hardware or players who play multiple gacha games. It’s because of this ongoing issue that the mobile gaming community now wants HoYoverse to add one simple feature to reduce the load. Posting on the official Honkai Star Rail Reddit page, one player shared their frustrations with preloading updates for HoYoverse games. After downloading the latest updates for Zenless Zone Zero, Honkai Star Rail, and Genshin Impact the player explained how they barely have room on their mobile device. This is particularly a problem for mobiles that have limited storage or lack external SD card options. It’s because of this, that players now want HoYoverse to add the option to delete past resources in all of their games. “I had to uninstall ZZZ. No hate for the game, since I’ll 100% try to come back someday after getting a better phone, but how the heck does the game take up 18 GB on the first go when the game is on a much smaller scale than Genshin/HSR? Lol,” wrote one player. Others also agreed, with one player noting how having the ability to delete past quests and content would free up some much-needed space: “They need to let us delete past quests, also they should make the permanent events modes downloadable. Right now there are a lot of past events/modes that still exist that not every player plays, so making it DLC can free up space. [You could then] download it again when there’s a current event involving it.” Hopefully, HoYoverse will add a storage management system to help improve the mobile experience in the future. But if you’re struggling with your storage and don’t have a PC or console, then you can always check out our best microSD card guide.

How Xbox Scarlett compares to PS5 – Specs, predictions, and more – Dexerto
How Xbox Scarlett compares to PS5 – Specs, predictions, and more During Microsoft‘s E3 2019 conference, they unveiled their next-gen Project Scarlett Xbox console, and revealed some of the specs. Here’s how it compares to the PS5. As this console generation winds down, all eyes are on what’s next from Sony and Microsoft. The PlayStation creator already revealed what to expect from their upcoming console, and things sound very impressive, especially when compared to the current hardware. The Xbox One and PS4 pretty much launched with dated hardware, but that won’t be an issue going forward as they will both come with modern specs that will be able to run games well right out of the gate. One thing that plagued the Xbox One, late in its life especially, is its low specs that caused several games to run at a lower resolution that you’d see on the PS4. With Microsoft and Sony pushing the envelope with the upcoming generation, let’s see how the two stack up. Xbox Project Scarlett vs. PS5 We’ve known about the PS5 specs for much longer than the Xbox specs. We know it will be boasting a Zen 2 AMD Ryzen CPU, and a custom Navi GPU from AMD as well. As for the Xbox, we know AMD is also delivering the hardware, and both consoles will feature a solid state drive. All things considered, the two consoles are very similar to each other, meaning it’s hard to go wrong for potential buyers in terms of hardware. Digital Foundry did an in-depth breakdown of the Scarlett console, and gave us a look at what we can expect with Microsoft’s upcoming console. They do point out that Sony’s SSD is proprietary, meaning it has a chance to be a little improved and optimized for the console. With the GPU information being kept under wraps, they say that we shouldn’t expect to hear anything about things like teraflops for quite a while. Sony has confirmed an 8-core Zen 2 processor while Microsoft hasn’t announced how many cores they will be using, but eight is likely. During the analysis, Digital Foundry finds it hard to actually find out the actual specs of the Scarlett console for right now, making a direct comparison a bit tough. As more specs become available to the public, we’ll be able to get a better idea of how the two consoles compare to each other. As things stand right now, we just have educated guesses and the knowledge that the specs are very similar to one another. Once we find out what customization Microsoft and Sony have in mind for their CPUs and GPUs, we’ll be able to have a much better idea of what to expect.

How Xiae beat the Doom Eternal world record – Dexerto
How Xiae beat the Doom Eternal world record American speedrunner Xiae claimed first-place at Break the Record: LIVE, beating six of the best Doom Eternal speedrunners and securing a new world record in the process. The latest European Speedrunner Assembly event was sponsored by cybersecurity company Kaspersky, and Xiae – like many of the other speedrunners competing at BTRL – had the firm’s Gaming mode on for his run, which gets rid of any annoying pop-ups that slow down gameplay. With players all seeking marginal gains like this, the competition was fierce and while many players set personal bests throughout the 14-hour marathon, it was Xiae who claimed the ultimate prize. Achieving a scintillating finish time of 1 hour, 8 minutes and 52 seconds is not an easy feat, especially when 10,000 peak concurrent viewers from around the world tuned in to see the action unfold. So we caught up with Xiae to discover how he secured the Doom Eternal world record and what he aims to do next. How did you prepare for Break the Record: LIVE? Xiae: There was lots and lots of grinding. Competing with the other speedrunners was a repetitive but fun process. Learning from my mistakes and correcting inconsistencies along the way proved to be the best preparation. What was the toughest, most nerve-wracking moment for you? Xiae: Every single BFG shot. When a run can die from a single crash out of your control, it keeps you holding your breath. Fortunately, I maxed out my luck stat before that particular run! How do you remain so calm during such high-pressure situations? Xiae: You don’t. You just deal with the jitters. Every now and then I would shake my hands to try to calm the nerves, but in the end, it was more about living with it rather than forcing it away. What was going through your mind during your final run? Xiae: Mental notes about every upcoming thing. It’s hard to be dealing with what is happening now and getting ready for what’s about to happen, but the amount of preparation for the event definitely made this second nature. What was it like when you finally secured the Doom Eternal world record? Xiae: There was so much relief, but also a sense of excitement to do better. Speedrunners will see mistakes in every seemingly-perfect thing they do, and in my run, there were of course many. What difference did the Kaspersky Gaming mode make to your gameplay? Xiae: With past antiviruses, I’ve specifically had to turn them off to keep them from churning up the CPU at important moments. In Doom Eternal, we hit CPU bottlenecks all the time, making every cycle count. I need something lightweight and unnoticeable, or I would rather have nothing. With Kaspersky, it was a nice change of pace finding zero impact to my game performance. So to answer the question, the difference it made was that it made no difference at all. At least to my gameplay. Read More: What happened at Break the Record LIVE? – Lastly, what challenges would you like to take on in the future? Xiae: I just want to play what’s fun, otherwise what’s the point? For now, I’m planning on taking a break from the current No Major Glitches classic category to try my hand at 100% Ultra Nightmare instead. It’s something I’ve wanted to try for a while and is what got me into speedrunning Doom Eternal to begin with.

How to win a Disney Lorcana Draft: Rules, selection priority & strategy – Dexerto
How to win a Disney Lorcana Draft: Rules, selection priority & strategy Disney/RavensburgerWe’re just about to get a brand-new set of Lorcana and the most fun way to get ahold of new cards is through a Draft. Here are some tips for winning a Disney Lorcana Draft. Disney Lorcana doesn’t need too much of an elevator pitch to sell it to new TCG players thanks to its popular IP and stellar art. Fortunately, underneath the hood is a mechanically tight experience that more seasoned card game veterans can also enjoy. It began with an impressive showing during the introductory First Chapter and has followed that up with two expansions that have resulted in a varied and healthy meta. Now that Usula’s Return – Lorcana’s fourth set – is on the horizon, the hunt for new Lorcana cards is about to begin all over again. One of my favorite ways to get ahold of new cards in any game is by competing in the Draft format. Below I’ll explain how a Lorcana Draft works as well as the methods I used to win the most recent Lorcana Draft I participated in. Contents: Disney Lorcana Draft rules Most major TCGs have rules for a Draft format although they will vary from game to game. Lorcana is no different and we’ve put together a quick explainer of the rules below. In a Lorcana Draft, every player is given four booster packs of 12 cards and split off into pods depending on the number of players in attendance. Once separated, Players will open their first pack and choose one card from the pack. Once you choose a card, you pass the remaining cards to the player on your left as you are passed the player on your right’s remaining cards. You will repeat the process of selecting one card and passing on the rest until the pack is exhausted. At this point, every player opens their second pack and repeats the process with the caveat that this time, you pass your remaining cards to the right. This goes on until all four booster packs have been opened and every player has 48 cards in total. From these 48 cards, each player constructs a deck of 40 cards to use in a series of 50-minute best-of-three rounds. To make things easier, the usual deckbuilding rules of Lorcana that only allow two colors of Ink in a deck don’t apply, so you can use cards from all six Ink colors in your Draft deck. The best part about a Lorcana Draft is that you get to keep all of the cards you pick including the eight that don’t make it into your final deck. Playing with a Draft deck can also be interesting because having access to six types of Ink rather than two allows for combos that can’t be used in organized play. On top of that, the friendly local game stores that host Drafts usually offer prizes in the form of more booster packs. This means that strategizing and playing well can net you even more new cards as well as the possibility of pulling a super valuable Enchanted card. Disney Lorcana Draft tips: Card selection Drafts are usually limited to a single set of Lorcana cards so there may be different considerations for each expansion. In saying that, there are some general rules of thumb regarding selection during a draft that should serve you very well. Of course, there are factors to consider that might have you ignoring some of these tips. If you’re just hoping to pick cards for a constructed deck you want to build, that’s perfectly okay. If by some insane stroke of luck, one of the packs you open has an Enchanted card, you should definitely pick it no matter what because you can sell them for a mint. With those caveats out of the way, these are the considerations I kept in mind when picking cards for my winning Lorcana Draft deck. By winning at the event, I was able to pick up even more booster packs and pull a bunch of cards I missed out on. Prioritize Evasive cards Ordinarily, when you first open a pack, you’ll want to pick the biggest threat in the pack. These are usually Characters with a high Ink cost that quest for multiple lore. They’ll also usually have handy effects that reward you for playing them, Questing with them, or Challenging. You should definitely pick up some of these cards so that you’re not overwhelmed in the late game but your mileage with them can vary. You have to draw them to play them and the game needs to run long enough for you to get them out. In my own winning run, I found that Lorcana Characters with the Evasive keyword were far more valuable. In Lorcana, only Characters with the Evasive keyword can challenge and defeat other Evasive Characters meaning a large number of characters have no way to deal with them. In a limited pool, there will only be so many Evasive cards so every one you select is another your opponents can’t. My final deck had 11 Evasive Characters and most of my opponents had between two and four. In all my games, once I had taken care of the Evasive cards my opponents were lucky enough to draw, they had almost no answers for mine. I was able to Quest and rapidly gain Lore with no threats. It’s not an exaggeration to say that Evasive cards almost singlehandedly won me this Lorcana Draft. Watch your curves While those high-cost threats I mentioned earlier can be handy, it’s far more useful to have a number of low-cost cards that you can play quickly. Some players will overlook Lorcana cards that only cost a single Ink because of their low stats and lore potential. They’re usually left until last in the early rounds because players want strong cards that seem threatening. In the later rounds, they do become more of a priority. Making sure that you have a good number of them before everyone starts looking for them means you’ll have more opportunities to get a card in play during your first turn. I had a total of four cards in my deck that cost more than four Ink, the remainder were all relatively cheap allowing me to play multiple per turn in the late game, and field Characters early. This is what’s referred to as a low-cost curve. The second curve you’ll want to look at is Lore. If you have a number of good Characters with useful abilities, but they only Quest for a single Lore, you can be outpaced by your opponents. Look back at your cards and make sure that you have a number of cards that Quest for two Lore or more. Card draw and removal When you have acquired enough cards with Evasion or none are available, look at Characters or Actions that have useful abilities. The most useful are cards that allow you to draw more cards or those that deal direct damage to your opponent’s Characters. Running out of cards in your hands can be crippling and while you can rely on playing as you draw if your deck is constructed tightly enough, it’s not ideal. Having Characters, Actions or Items that allow you to keep filling your hand can be the difference between winning and losing. Being able to deal direct damage to Characters can ensure that you don’t have to Challenge as often. This means your Characters are free to Quest and you can accumulate Lore quicker. Aside from card draw and removal, picking Characters with existing abilities like making your opponent discard a card is always better than their vanilla counterparts. The pool of Songs, Actions, and Items will be relatively thin but if you have enough Characters with their own abilities, they can act as Actions themselves. Lorcana Draft Strategy If you’ve followed the above tips, you should have a Lorcana Draft deck filled with relatively low-cost Evasive Characters, three or four big threats, and a number of versatile abilities. So, how do you pilot it? Because most players won’t be able to craft heavily synergized decks that excel at a particular playstyle, you should be hard to stop. The general idea is to flood the board with Characters, most of which are hopefully Evasive. Quest as early and often as you can because Lore is the only thing that will win you the game. Keep an eye on your opponent’s field and don’t be afraid to Challenge when they get more than two characters out. You’ll be able to replace any you lose fairly quickly to keep the pressure up. Because many of your Characters are evasive, they’ll be forced to deal with any other Characters of yours they can in an effort to reduce your Lore-per-turn. While they’re busy with that and not able to Quest, you’ll run away with the game. Following this outline only lost me one game of the nine that I participated in and I won every best-of-three round. Like all TCGs and especially Drafts, there is an element of luck involved but hopefully, these tips on how to win a Lorcana Draft will put the odds a little more in your favor. Ursula’s Return releases on May 17, 2024, and there are sure to be a bunch of Draft events in your area. Give the tips in this guide a go and see how many booster packs you can get ahold of.

Furthermore, there will be translations supported via their YouTube stream, including but not limited to: Spanish, French, German and Mandarin. Will the Xbox Series X feature? As the name suggests, this livestream is expected to focus on games coming in the future, rather than the upcoming console. Rumors have suggested that Microsoft could be working on a cheaper console, as a budget alternative to the Series X. Speculative titles have also surfaced – namely the Series S – but this remains hearsay for the moment. This could be confirmed on July 23, but it seems likely to be revealed alongside its more expensive big brother, if it’s announced at all. We’ll have to wait and see what Microsoft have up their sleeves, but reports have suggested the official Series X reveal will not be until later in the summer. Xbox Showcase games and titles The list of games that will be featured is also not yet exhaustive. But, Microsoft has confirmed that there will be footage from the hugely anticipated Halo: Infinite. The 343 Industries’ title, expected to release in late 2020, is the latest game in one of Xbox’s most popular series. Other games are rumored to be involved, but not yet confirmed. We could see news for Fable 4, FIFA 21 and Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla. There’s a good chance that Microsoft will not confirm a final line-up of titles until just before the stream, if at all. You can, of course, keep up with the latest news and announcements from the Xbox Games Showcase right here on Dexerto.

Like the PlayStation 5, there is no confirmed release date for the new Xbox console yet. Both Sony and Microsoft have only said “Holiday 2020”, which typically covers the period of both November and December, or at the very earliest, late October. If you’re not yet convinced which one to buy, you can check out our full comparison of the technical specifications of each here. But, it’s also important to consider other aspects too, such as price, game exclusives, and of course, which console your friends are playing. This last part may become less important in the future though, as the trend towards cross-platform play in multiplayer games continues.

How to watch Xbox 20th Anniversary Celebration: Streams, schedule & more – Dexerto
How to watch Xbox 20th Anniversary Celebration: Streams, schedule & more Xbox/ValveXbox turns 20 today and Microsoft plan on marking the occasion with a livestream. Here’s how and when to watch the Xbox 20 Anniversary Celebration, and what we expect to see. Back in November 2001, Microsoft released the Xbox, a chunky powerhouse that promised to usher in a new era of console gaming. Through the original Xbox, Microsoft planned on moving online gaming out of our PCs and into our living rooms. Now, 20 years and four consoles later, the Xbox Anniversary Celebration will recap this extraordinary journey. However, we also expect the livestream will look to the future, giving us a glimpse of what Microsoft has planned for the Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Xbox Game Pass as we move into 2022 and beyond – even if the company has promised there won’t be any new game reveals. Here’s how to watch the Xbox 20 Anniversary Celebration livestream, and when to tune in. Contents How to watch the Xbox Anniversary Celebration – When is the Xbox Anniversary Celebration livestream? – What to expect during the Xbox Anniversary – How to watch the Xbox Anniversary Celebration You can watch the Xbox 20 Anniversary Celebration here on the official Xbox YouTube channel. The good news is you can watch it live through your computer, TV, or Xbox console. The Xbox One and Series X|S should also present a link to it on their dashboards as we get closer to the start time. When is the Xbox Anniversary Celebration livestream? The Xbox 20th Anniversary Celebration livestream is today, November 15, 2021, and will begin at 6pm GMT / 10am PT / 1pm ET. Those who arrive late will be able to watch from the beginning or can just watch from when they arrive. The whole event will then remain on YouTube after it concludes so it can be re-watched or seen by those who can’t make the start time. What to expect during the Xbox Anniversary Celebration Xbox has said that the Xbox Anniversary Celebration will not reveal any new games. This is a shame, but that doesn’t mean that Xbox won’t have some surprises for us and other exciting news. We imagine the upcoming Halo Infinite will feature prominently, with rumors suggesting the multiplayer portion of the game could launch during the event itself. Xbox may also share some updates about their plans for Forza Horizon 5 – a game that broke records less than 24 hours after it was released. Read More: Is Forza Horizon 5 on Xbox Game Pass? – Speaking of Halo, Pablo Schreiber, who will play Master Chief in the Halo TV series has teased “something very exciting” will be coming during the event. Could it be a new Halo TV show trailer or a release date? It’s also likely that Xbox fill us in on the future of Xbox Game Pass and what may be coming to the service in the near future. Since some old classics reappeared on Xbox Marketplace, fans have been speculating away. Dwayne Johnson or The Rock as he’s known to many, will also be making an appearance. The Rock was also at the very first Xbox console reveal over 20 years ago, so it’s fitting that he returns for the 20 Anniversary Celebration. Read More: Best 10 Halo maps of all time – We expect the Xbox Anniversary Celebration to be more of a look back at how the brand has evolved rather than a collection of announcements. Although, Microsoft will be planning for another 20 years of Xbox, and the road to that arguably starts today. Of course, 20 years is a significant milestone for the Xbox brand. They say time flies when you’re having fun.

Starfield is currently slated to release in the first half of 2023, so we shouldn’t have to wait too long for another gameplay demo.

How to watch Ubisoft Forward: start time, streams, reveals, more – Dexerto
How to watch Ubisoft Forward: start time, streams, reveals, more Ubisoft[jwplayer JHqOrq6e]In lieu of a traditional press conference at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), Ubisoft will be hosting its own livestream for everyone to watch from the comfort of their homes. Here’s a complete overview of everything you need to know about Ubisoft Forward. As a result of the ongoing global situation, many publishers in the gaming industry have pivoted to hosting their own events. Sony showcased numerous PlayStation 5 titles on June 11, Nintendo revealed new Smash content on June 22, and even CD Projekt Red shared new Cyberpunk 2077 footage on June 25. These presentations allow developers to highlight their efforts to a global audience just the same as E3. Now, Ubisoft’s turn in the spotlight is up next. Ubisoft Forward is set to be a “celebration of Ubisoft’s upcoming lineup of games and content.” While many future projects have been teased already, plenty of surprises have also been promised. Here’s a full rundown of the major gaming event. How to watch the Ubisoft Forward event On July 6, Ubisoft confirmed that its official livestream will kick off at 10:30 AM PDT | 7:30 PM CEST | 3:30 AM AEST on Monday, July 12. The pre-show begins an hour later and the main show kicks off at 12:00 PM PDT. If you’re wanting to sit through both the pre-show and the main broadcast, the stream will run for roughly 75 minutes. However, there is also a post-show wrap up as well. Throughout the pre-show, Trackmania, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, Just Dance 2020, and The Division 2 will all be in focus. As a bonus for early-birds, opening the stream anytime after the Trackmania segment will earn you a free game. If you log in with your Uplay account, you can claim a free copy of Watch Dogs 2 and earn rewards “for a variety of Ubisoft titles.” You can tune into the official broadcast through Ubisoft’s own site here. Though the stream will also be going live across YouTube, Twitch, Mixer, and many social media platforms to boot. Some of which we’ve embedded below for your convenience. What to expect at the Ubisoft Forward event The main titles to be featured throughout the broadcast are Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, Watch Dogs: Legion, and Hyper Scape. While 30 minutes of Valhalla gameplay recently surfaced, and players have been going hands-on with Hyper Scape’s Closed Beta since July 2, Ubisoft has also promised “a few surprises.” Perhaps we’ll see a new entry in the Splinter Cell franchise or, finally, have confirmation on the long-rumored Rainbow Six crossover. Maybe we’ll get an update on the ‘ultimate’ pirate simulator Skull & Bones. Or we could even be treated to an unveiling of an all-new IP. Only time will tell as the Ubisoft Forward event kicks off on July 12.

What happened at Ubisoft Forward E3? From Avatar to Far Cry 6 – Dexerto
What happened at Ubisoft Forward E3? From Avatar to Far Cry 6 Ubisoft / E3Ubisoft’s E3 2021 press conference delivered some exciting news for Far Cry 6 and Mario x Rabbids, as well as an Avatar-shaped surprise. Here’s all you need to know. With E3 being canceled in 2021, there’s been added excitement towards Ubisoft’s conference this time around. Despite that cancelation, however, we have since seen the launch of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Watch Dogs 3, and Hyper Scape to name a few. There have been individual announcements for Far Cry, Rider Republic, and a few others, but, at Ubisoft’s E3 2021 show, players hoped to be in for a few treats. And boy did Ubisoft deliver. With plenty to digest from Ubisoft’s press conference, let’s take a look at what we found out. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora Well, this was a bit of a shock. Coming into the event, fans were clinging on to the possibility of Ubisoft announcing a brand-new Rayman game. But instead, we got something rather different. Ahead of the relaunch of James Cameron’s Avatar film series, Ubisoft announced an accompanying game, Frontiers of Pandora. While we don’t know much about it yet, they did show off what it will look like in-game with some pretty stunning visuals. Set for release in 2022, the game will be launched exclusively on Xbox Series S|X and PS5, as well as Stadia and Luna. Far Cry 6 Ubisoft did Far Cry fans a service by dropping both gameplay and storyline trailers two weeks prior to E3, but that didn’t stop them from chucking out even more content. We got further insight into the game’s villain, Anton Castillo, who is portrayed by acting great Giancarlo Esposito. You’ll know his recognizable face from shows like Breaking Bad, The Mandalorian and The Boys. Ubisoft also announced a Season Pass, which will allow players to access characters from previous instalments, such as Vaas and Pagan Min. We’re not sure if players can access these characters throughout the game or just in certain segments. But either way, this should be pretty cool. Riders Republic Riders Republic looks like a lot of fun. The premise is basic: compete in some of the biggest outdoors sports, from snowboarding and cycling, to hang gliding and jetpacking, to complete assault courses as fast as possible. But it’s not all about the sports, as Ubisoft have simulated some of the USA’s most breathtaking landscapes for players to enjoy more casually. Set to release on September 2, Riders Republic looks well worth the wait. Beyond Good and Evil 2 Well, we were hoping Ubisoft would at least give us something for Beyond Good and Evil 2, having initially teased the game at E3 back in 2018. Unfortunately, we didn’t even get a sniff. Fans of the original 2003 title will likely be waiting for while before Ubisoft release any new details on its sequel. Rainbow Six Extraction R6 was first up for Ubisoft as they announced an entirely new title, Extraction, which is set for release on September 16 2021. In this new co-op PvE experience, players take on an “alien threat” featuring six types of enemies, each of which has their own effects, strengths and weaknesses for operators to defeat. Crucially, R6 Extraction will also include much anticipated cross-play and cross-progression capabilities. Mario x Rabbids: Sparks of Hope Another big surprise from Ubisoft was Mario x Rabbids: Sparks of Hope, a sequel to 2017’s Kingdom Battle. In this new release, players take hold of Mario and his Rabbid companions in a bid to defeat the evil Cursa, who threatens to consume powerful creatures called Sparks. Set for release in 2022, Sparks of Hope could be a Nintendo Switch exclusive, although fans are holding out hope for a potential Switch Pro release too.

How to watch Ubisoft Forward: games, time, streams and rewards UbisoftUbisoft Forward is the game publisher’s first all-digital conference, taking place on July 12.

The main show will then last 45 minutes, and will be succeeded by a post-show event. According to Ubisoft themselves, the “stream kicks off at 10:30 AM PDT/07:30 PM CEST with news and content from games like Trackmania, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, Just Dance 2020, Tom Clancy’s The Division 2, and more.” This is then followed by the main show, which will provide “details from Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, Watch Dogs: Legion, Hyper Scape, and a few surprises”. One of these ‘surprises’ will be Far Cry 6. Prior to the start of the event, Ubisoft tweeted to inform their followers that the even will indeed be pre-recorded. Their statement reads: “Ubisoft Forward comes during a time of big internal change. Because all the content has been pre-recorded, we wanted to recognize that the issues we’re currently dealing with won’t be addressed directly in the show. We still have significant work to do and are committed to this process. We will provide more updates soon.” How to get Watch Dogs 2 for free with Ubisoft Forward Watching and interacting with the Ubisoft Forward stream can also earn players a free copy of Watch Dogs 2, the 2016 Ubisoft title. “On the day of the conference,” Ubisoft state, “don’t forget to login with your Ubisoft account to claim a free copy of Watch Dogs 2, plus the chance to earn additional in-game rewards”. Like many recent streams, the developers are offering players rewards for their time and viewing. It remains to be seen what these exclusive rewards will be, but you can stay update with everything from Ubisoft Forward right here on Dexerto.

Team Tank wins Twitch Rivals Super Team Showdown: results, more – Dexerto
Team Tank wins Twitch Rivals Super Team Showdown: results, more TwitchThe Twitch Rivals Super Team tournament is done and dusted, and after teams of 16 streamers battled it out in Fortnite, League of Legends, Valorant, and Fall Guys, only one of them reigned supreme. The streaming site took their annual convention entirely online this year, and fans weren’t able to meet their favorite streamers. However, they were able to watch an all-new Rivals tournament among other things. The Twitch Rivals Super Team tournament took place along with the rest of Glitchcon on Saturday, November 14. Unlike what we saw in the past from Rivals, teams competed in four separate games: Fortnite, League of Legends, Valorant, and Fall Guys. But in the end, only one of them came out on top. Fortnite Fortnite was the first game on the menu. It was a cracking start to the tournament and showcased some incredibly high-skill gameplay. However, all eyes were on Ninja, who made yet another much-anticipated return to the game. It was a close battle. But in the end, Avery, Bugha, and Jamper crushed their way to victory after some intense skirmishes and sealed the deal for Aces. It was an impressive performance across the board. Tanks snagged second-place, with BonsaiBrozBTW, coL Punisher, and NickEh30 all performing well. Ninja, Morgausse, and Reverse2k. Unfortunately, they ended up third, only beating GOATS. League of Legends League of Legends was the second game in the Twitch Rivals Super Team tournament. Aces, which consisted of Tyler1, GeneralSniperr, PantsAreDragon, TSMSword, and duoking1, decimated their way to victory. They won in straight sets, beating GOATs in the semi-final and Metas in the final, and earning themselves four points in the process. Meanwhile, Tanks and GOATs duked it out in a third-place playoff, and Tanks came out on top. With the W in @LeagueofLegends, Aces are running away with the lead 🏆 @loltyler1 🏆 @GeneralSniperr or should we call him @faker? 🤔 🏆 @PantsAreDragon 🏆 @TSMSword 🏆 @duoking1 pic.twitter.com/XBNBLWejqB— Twitch Rivals (@TwitchRivals) November 14, 2020 Valorant Next, the battle took place in Valorant, with thousands of viewers tuning in to watch Shroud briefly return to the competitive scene and secure a win for Aces. However, it wasn’t meant to be. Tanks, which consisted of TenZ, viceCSGO, shinobi, mitchtv, and Modigga were too good for the competition. They had a close game against Tanks in the final, but did what needed to be done to earn the four points. suuuurging to victory in the final, #GlitchConTanks are your @PlayVALORANT champs 🏆Super Team Superstar @TenZ_CS 🏆@vice_cs 🏆@shinobi_fps 🏆@mitchcsgo 🏆@modigga20 pic.twitter.com/SlbkEgtskS— Twitch Rivals (@TwitchRivals) November 15, 2020 Fall Guys Last but not least, the Twitch Rivals Super Team tournament wrapped things up with Fall Guys. It was a nail-biting rollercoaster ride from start to finish, with hilarious ups and downs along the way. In the end, GrandPOOBear survived a dramatic finish on Hex-A-Gone to get the win. He landed on the same hexagon as the other remaining survivor, which put a spanner in the works. However, he managed to find a better route and held on by the skin of his teeth. Closing out GlitchCon with a big Hex-A-Gone W 👑 @GrandPOOBear pic.twitter.com/f3KCt8P6ih — Twitch Rivals (@TwitchRivals) November 15, 2020 Final Placements The Twitch Rivals Super Team Showdown was a thrilling contest from start to finish. However, Team Tanks were the best team throughout the tournament. It didn’t matter that they only won in Valorant. They gained enough points overall to bring the trophy home and earn $11,000 each. Turns out, winners will keep winning in any dimension. 🏆 Congrats to your first ever Twitch Rivals GlitchCon Champions, Team Tanks Captains @NickEh30 @TenZ_CS @Hai @pokimanelol pic.twitter.com/ECBoxXaxaS — Twitch Rivals (@TwitchRivals) November 15, 2020 Twitch Rivals Super Team Showdown schedule & format The Super Team tournament consisted of a 4-game event where 20 top Twitch creators split into 4 Super Teams. Each team of 5 had one Game Captain for each of the 3 major games — Fortnite, League of Legends, and Valorant — and 1 captain + 2 teammates for Fall Guys. In total, each Super Team was made up of 16 Players and the competition wrapped up with all players involved in the Fall Guys event. Things kicked off at 1 PM EST with the start of the broadcast, but the first competition started at 1:30 PM EST with Fortnite and went from there. Being that this is “Glitchcon,” we saw a few glitches thrown in by Twitch on everything from game modes, prizes, and format, tossing “competitive standards” out the window for this event. The full lineup of events is listed below (all times in EST): 1:30 PM Fortnite Super Team Showdown – – 4:00 PM League of Legends Super Team Showdown – – 6:20 PM Valorant Super Team Showdown – – 9:10 PM Fall Guys Super Team Showdown – – 10:30 PM Final Round – Fall Guys – – Twitch Rivals Super Team Showdown stream Streamers participating in the Super Team Showdown obviously broadcasted on their own channels, so if you wanted to watch anyone in particular rather than one big overview, you were able to do so. However, the optimal way to have caught all of the action in one place was to simply tune into the official Twitch Rivals channel, which broadcasted an overview of all of the action throughout the day. Twitch Rivals Super Team Showdown teams There were four teams total, and each one was pretty stacked with well-known streamers including Tyler1, xQc, Tfue, Ninja, and many more. The full list of teams is below: Aces PantsAreDragon – nothing – DrLupo – loltyler1 – ANGRYPUG – Iridium – JamperFN – GeneralSniperNA – Skadoodle – steel_tv – shroud – duoking1 – Bugha – BotezLive – Averyqt – TSMSword – GOATs Nightblue3 – TimTheTatman – Quantum – Mendo – Tfue – nvKing – sinatraa – Tuexy – Grego – Subroza – GrandPOOBear – MistyStumpey – xQcOW – Value247 – Alicopter – scoped – Metas Ninja – Morgausse – sgares – pfitter – Reverse2k – nibbblerr – Sanchovies – Official_Cozy – Shiphtur – Trick2g – lilypichu – TFBlade – Kate – ShawnBM – Yassuo – branted –

How to watch the Mortal Kombat 11 gameplay reveal stream – Stream and info – Dexerto
How to watch the Mortal Kombat 11 gameplay reveal stream – Stream and info After focusing on Injustice 2 for the last couple of years, NetherRealm Studios is returning to their roots with the upcoming release of Mortal Kombat 11. First announced at The Game Awards on December 7, Mortal Kombat 11 is the next chapter in the acclaimed and iconic fighting game series. While the game’s April 23rd release is still a few months away, NetherRealm will be giving fans a peek at what the game will have to offer with a special reveal stream on January 17 and we’ve got everything you need to know leading up to the stream. The highly-anticipated Mortal Kombat 11 will finally be unveiled on January 17. What time is the live stream? NetherRealm will hold their Mortal Kombat 11 gameplay reveal on Thursday, January 17 at 10:30am PST / 1:30pm EST / 6:30pm GMT. Where can I watch the stream? The stream will be hosted on NetherRealm’s official Twitch channel, which you can find down below. Watch live video from NetherRealm on www.twitch.tvWhat announcements can we expect from the stream? Characters It’s expected that NetherRealm will reveal the full Mortal Kombat 11 roster during the gameplay reveal stream. Raiden and Scorpion have already been shown off in the initial trailer, meaning they’re a lock for the final roster. Shao Khan was also confirmed as a pre-order bonus, as well. Beyond those three, we can certainly expect the Mortal Kombat staples of Sub-ZeRo, Liu Kang, Sonya Blade, and Johnny Cage to show up. Mortal Kombat is also known for having plenty of crossover characters on the roster (everyone remember Alien and Predator?), so there’s truly no telling what NetherRealm has in store here. Weapons could be on their way back to the Mortal Kombat franchise for the first time since 2006. Gameplay mechanics Given that this is a “gameplay reveal,” there’s no doubt that we’ll see plenty of gameplay footage for fans to sink their teeth into. Ever since Mortal Kombat 9 back in 2011, NetherRealm fighting games have all used a similar fighting system that fans have grown accustomed to over the years. A feature that could finally be making its way back to the Mortal Kombat franchise is weapons. Both Raiden and Scorpion made heavy use of various weapons in the initial announcement trailer, meaning that a feature that hasn’t been seen since Mortal Kombat: Armageddon in 2006 could be making a return.

How to watch The Game Awards 2020: Schedule, streams, announcements, more – Dexerto
How to watch The Game Awards 2020: Schedule, streams, announcements, more The Game AwardsAlong with being a special night to celebrate accomplishments in the industry, The Game Awards has become one of the biggest events for shocking reveals and major announcements. From when to expect, to when it all kicks off, here’s everything there is to know. Despite the state of the world in 2020, Geoff Keighley is still pulling together a special night for the gaming community. While there won’t be a crowd, and developers won’t be walking on stage to collect their awards this time around, there’s still a huge spectacle to look forward to. The Game Awards is one of the biggest events of the year, with many publishers using the spotlight to announce their upcoming projects. From new game reveals to exciting DLC trailers and everything in between, expectations are always sky-high for the exciting show. This year’s event is no different. Moreover, it’s also one of the best opportunities to reflect on all of the accomplishments throughout the past 12 months. Here’s a complete overview of The Game Awards 2020, including the schedule, announcements up to this point, and how you can tune in. The Game Awards 2020 streams As per usual, The Game Awards will be going live in a big way. Not just featured on typical streaming services like Twitch and YouTube, but Keighley’s production will be going out across “more than 35” different platforms. From Twitter, to a direct embed in Steam itself, there are plenty of ways to tune in. On top of the original broadcasts, content creators are entirely welcome to co-stream the event as well. Meaning all of the biggest streamers can tune in with their own communities. We’ve embedded a few simple options for you below, some of which boast 4K streaming options for the clearest possible picture. The Game Awards 2020 schedule This year’s event is all set to kick off at a time that should be great across the globe. If you don’t want to miss a moment, make sure you’re all settled in nice and early. The Pre-Show goes live on December 10 at 3 PM PT | 6 PM ET | 11 PM GMT | 10 AM AEDT (December 11). If you’re just eager to catch the main broadcast, however, that will be going live just 30 minutes later. There’s no set duration for the event this time around, though it usually runs between three and four hours. So expect a similar structure for the 2020 iteration. The Game Awards 2020 categories and nominations At its core, The Game Awards is obviously an awards show first. While groundbreaking announcements can easily steal the spotlight, the main goal of the show is to highlight efforts of the most talented developers around the world each and every year. Most notably, the Game of the Year award itself is extremely competitive. You’ve got six blockbuster titles going head to head in that category, while dozens of others are in the running for various awards. From the best music to the best indie title and plenty more, you can view each and every category right here. The Game Awards 2020 announcements While nothing specific is set in stone just yet, rumors have been swirling as they do every year. Could we finally see new Elden Ring footage? What about GTA 6? Some predictions are far more likely than others, though we can already make a few assumptions based on early reveals. For instance, we know that both Tom Holland and Nolan North will be appearing throughout the show. The face and voice of Nathan Drake respectively, surely wouldn’t be appearing unless they’ve got something to share with the world. If we had to hedge our bets, The Game Awards could provide our first snippet of the upcoming Uncharted movie. Hide Your Treasure: Next Thursday we’re welcoming Tom Holland, star of the upcoming @Unchartedmovie, as a presenter for #TheGameAwards pic.twitter.com/3JwPVXaF1C — The Game Awards (@thegameawards) December 1, 2020 Other than that, we have a few other names locked in for those presenting awards. Everyone from Stephen A. Smith to Brie Larson will be making an appearance. Though it’s safe to assume they’ll purely be announcing some winners, not breaking major news in the gaming industry. The only other tidbit we have to go off for now, is that Bioware will be showcasing a new look at the next Dragon Age title. Stay tuned for any further updates as we get closer to the big show.

How to watch September Ubisoft Forward: Date, games, more – Dexerto
How to watch September Ubisoft Forward: Date, games, more UbisoftUbisoft’s September Forward event is right around the corner and will feature previews of at least four games, and possibly more surprises. So, let’s take a look at what’s on the table. Previously, the last Forward event happened in July 2020, where we got the first official release date for Far Cry 6, as well as an in-depth look at other upcoming games. The next Forward event will kick off on September 10 at 11 AM PST, 2 PM EST, and 7 PM BST. We don’t know exactly what will be included in the lineup, but we can take some clues away from the trailer, which has already been released. From there, we can assume that Hyperscape, Watchdogs: Legion, Rainbow 6 Siege, and Gods & Monsters (which possibly has a new name: “Immortals, Fenyx Rising) will all be included. Ubisoft Forward stream & schedule Ubisoft Forward takes place on Thursday, September 10. The stream starts at 11 AM PST/2 PM EST/7 PM BST. The pre-show will begin, according to the schedule, right at 11 when things get going. The stream can be found at ubisoft.com/forward, but fans can also expect to find the proceedings being streamed via Ubisoft’s Twitch, Twitter and YouTube channels. If you can’t make it in time for the first hour, don’t worry too much, because it will be the second hour – starting at 12 PM PST – when the big new games, like Watchdogs: Legion (coming out in October), will be taking center stage. What games are being shown at Ubisoft Forward? Like we mentioned earlier, the stream starts at 11 AM PST, but the first hour will be spent covering new content for smaller games, like Brawlhalla, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpont and more. After that, the main event begins, with details from Rainbow 6 Siege, Watch Dogs: Legion, Hyper Scape and a few “surprises.” One of these surprises should be the chronically delayed “Gods & Monsters,” which was set to come out in early 2020 before being pushed back. Unlike the July Forward event, Ubisoft has made no mention of the September show being pre-recorded, so we might actually see a live broadcast this time around. Ubisoft Forward prizes Watching and interacting with the Ubisoft Forward stream can also earn players special rewards if they watch while logged in to their Ubisoft account.

It’s likely that he’ll show an in-depth view of the PlayStation 5, almost a year after a Wired interview in which Cerney first talked about the new console. The Wired article began: “Mark Cerny would like to get one thing out of the way right now: The video game console that Sony has spent the past four years building is no mere upgrade.” PS5 and the Xbox Series X Now it’s time for Sony to ‘wow’ the market again with what they are confident will not only compete but surpass the already impressive specs known about respected rivals Microsoft’s Xbox Series X, formerly known as Project Scarlett. Xbox’s next-gen console will have 16GB GDDR6 memory, 120 fps support, a 1TB custom NVMe SSD, and a string of impressive letters and numbers that are used to describe its GPU and CPU. That’s not including the 8k resolution support and Ray Tracing already linked to the console. The industry and fans alike will be excited to see what features Sony will come out with to beat that. Also considering that there’s been talk of possible backwards compatibility with the PlayStation 4. More statement on PlayStation 5’s PS4 Backwards Compatibility “”Currently, the dev team is putting all power on verifying whether they can secure a complete compatibility. Please wait for more information.””https://t.co/g8OWIbrri3 pic.twitter.com/bkS2TYTjOI— 黒凧 BlackKite (@bk2128) October 8, 2019 PlayStation told Famitsu, translated by BlackKite: “Currently, the dev team is putting all power on verifying whether they can secure a complete compatibility. Please wait for more information.” A release of Holidays 2020 will put it on a collision course with the next Xbox, so you can bet Sony is aiming to impress with this livestream.

PlayStation Showcase 2021: What to expect While Sony may have skipped E3 entirely, it did have a small segment at Gamescom Opening Night Live last month where Horizon Forbidden West was confirmed to have been pushed back to February 18, 2022. As disappointing as that may be for some fans, there’s a good chance it’ll still make an appearance since it marks the return of a big franchise for Sony. The event also comes just days before the launch of Deathloop, with Arkane’s game remaining a PS5 console exclusive despite Microsoft’s acquisition of Bethesda, so we could get another quick look. Read More: Sony acquires Firesprite – Kena: Bridge of Spirits will also launch on September 21, so expect that to make an appearance too, but PlayStation VR’s successor won’t be. As per Sony: “One thing to note: PlayStation’s next generation of VR won’t make an appearance this time.” Further ahead, 2022 looks exciting for PlayStation fans. Alongside Forbidden West, PS5 owners can expect to play Ghostwire Tokyo, Elden Ring, and the new Saints Row.

How to watch Nintendo E3 2021 stream: Pokemon Legends Arceus, Diamond, Pearl & More – Dexerto
How to watch Nintendo E3 2021 stream: Pokemon Legends Arceus, Diamond, Pearl & More E3 / NintendoNintendo’s E3 2021 press conference is expected to deliver some exciting news for Pokemon Legends Arceus, the Sinnoh Region remakes, and more. Here, we have the schedule, dates, times, and stream so you can watch along. 2021 seems to be the year that Nintendo fans all around the world have been waiting for. With huge announcements such as the release dates for Pokemon Legends Arceus and the series’ Diamond and Pearl remakes, Pokemon fans have a lot to look forward to. It won’t be all about Pokemon, though. As the developer’s iconic Smash Ultimate title appears to be hurtling towards a conclusion, and Zelda fans cross their fingers and toes for a new Breath of The Wild, there’s a lot of things that could slip through the cracks. Contents How to watch Nintendo E3 2021 press conference The press conference will air on E3 and Nintendo’s respective social channels, but specifically their YouTubes. Here are the options we’re aware of so far: The Nintendo YouTube Channel – The E3 YouTube Channel – The E3 2021 App – When the stream goes live we’ll ensure it’s embedded here to make your lives a little bit easier. When is the Nintendo E3 Stream Nintendo have announced that their official E3 stream will go live on June 12, 2021, and will run for approximately 40 minutes. Nintendo E3 start times: US, UK, AUS, EU Fancy tuning in? Here are all of the start times for the broadcast pre-show: 8 AM PST – 11 AM EST – 4 PM BST – 6 PM CEST – 1 AM AEST – Nintendo: Treehouse Live Immediately after the Nintendo Direct stream, there’s a three-hour showcase planned which will give fans a deep dive into some gameplay from the newest titles coming to the Switch. This will begin at: 9:00 AM PST – 12:00 PM EST – 5:00 PM BST – 7:00 PM CEST – 2:00 AM AEST – Nintendo E3 press conference: What to expect As we mentioned earlier, 2021 promises to be a big year for Nintendo in terms of Pokemon, but there’s a lot more than just that on the developer’s horizon. With promises of a new console and more, Nintendo’s E3 stream promises to be a pretty spectacular event. Pokemon Legends Arceus First up on our watch list is anything related to Pokemon Legends Arceus. The open-world style title has fans already on the edge of their seats, and dropping the official release date has only added fuel to the fire. With January 28, 2022, being the date everyone is looking forward to, players will be hoping to catch a few more glimpses into this very different take on the Pokemon adventure. It’s basically as if you took Pokemon and Zelda: Breath of the Wild and blended them together. See why we’re excited yet? Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl Dropping just before Arceus on 19 November, 2021, is the remaster of Generation IV titles Diamond and Pearl. A trip down memory lane for trainers everywhere, both titles are highly sought after by trainers everywhere. While we’re not expecting anything new gameplay-wise, it’ll be interesting to see if the devs give us any further insight into the title’s new features and graphical enhancements. Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 If all of that Pokemon madness doesn’t have you stoked, then the possibility of a sequel to the iconic Zelda title, Breath of the Wild, surely will. While we’ve known about the sequel for some time, there’s been very little official discussion around it. Save for this pretty ominous trailer, we know next to nothing about the new installment in the classic series, so we’ll just need to wait and see what E3 gifts us. The new Nintendo Switch Pro As we move into yet another generation of consoles, it’s likely that we’ll see some snippets of the newest console on the block: the Nintendo Switch Pro. With the company’s newest hardware set to release in Autumn alongside the cheaper alternative, the Switch lite, fans will no doubt be looking forward to the possibility of upgraded graphics, software, and much, much more! Metroid 4 Last on our list of “must-sees” is Metroid Prime 4. First showcased all the way back at E3 in 2017, fans have been waiting to sink their teeth into the highly anticipated title. With only the above trailer to go on and no leaks so far, any sliver of information would reignite the hype around the classic title. So that’s it for E3’s Nintendo press conference! If you’re interested in tuning into the XBOX and Sony E3 streams, be sure to check out our guides below.

How to watch Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase February 2024: Date, time, more NintendoThe next Nintendo Direct has been announced and it’s not far off. Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch the February 2024 Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase. Nintendo’s first Nintendo Direct of 2024 is on the horizon and we’re excited to see what’s on offer. There’s already been some major news for Nintendo’s year ahead after Xbox’s leadership team confirmed that some former console exclusives are coming to the Switch. Rumors surrounding the Switch 2 have also been heating up. Just don’t expect that to be revealed at this upcoming Nintendo Direct. Nintendo has finally revealed when the first Nintendo Direct of the year will be airing following a short delay. Here’s all the info on the Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase including the date and time for the stream and where to watch. Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase date & time This year’s first Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase will air on February 21, 2024, at 6 AM PT/9 AM ET. It was originally scheduled to air sometime between February 12 and February 15 but it was pushed back. Apparently, the delay was to avoid any competition with Xbox’s recent Business Update. Now that there’s no fear of being overshadowed, the event is going ahead. Where to watch the February 2024 Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase The February 2024 Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase will be published via Nintendo of America’s YouTube channel.

How to watch Nintendo Direct September 2023: Date, streams, leaks – Dexerto
How to watch Nintendo Direct September 2023: Date, streams, leaks NintendoAfter weeks of rumors, a Nintendo Direct has finally been announced for September 2023. Here’s everything you need to know. Nintendo fans have been waiting to see what the Japanese company has been cooking up and they’ll be able to see what the big N has in store on September 14 in the form of a 40-minute Direct. The news comes after a few waves of leaks suggesting that September would have a Direct with some prominent insiders teasing the return of some classics and new installments in prominent franchises. Additionally, the Direct’s timing is just a few weeks after Gamescom where a Switch 2 was reportedly shown, so will Nintendo unveil it to the world? It’s possible, but doubtful. We’ll explain why. How to watch September 14 Nintendo Direct The Nintendo Direct is scheduled for September 14 and will start at 7 am PST and 10 am EST, so be sure to get that coffee brewing early if you’re on the west coast. Fans can watch the Direct below on YouTube, which we’ve embedded below for your convenience. Nintendo says the Direct will last 40 minutes and will focus on Switch games releasing this winter. What do leaks say about the Nintendo Direct? Early leaks from Twitter user ‘Pyoro’ have suggested that the Mario vs Donkey Kong series will continue as well as a possible return of F-Zero series. The leaker also claims that we’ll be getting more news on the currently untitled Princess Peach game scheduled to release in 2024. Additionally, recent rumors have suggested that Nintendo plans to revisit the Super Smash Bros franchise, potentially with new Smash Ultimate content as amiibo and controllers are getting restocked. Sora, the last character released for Smash Ultimate, still doesn’t have an amiibo, and data for one doesn’t exist at the moment, so the game will need an update if Nintendo gives the Kingdom Hearts hero one of his own. Finally, due to the Direct being focused on Switch games coming out in winter 2024, it’s unlikely that we see anything Switch 2 related just yet. So be sure to keep expectations in check. Of course, take every leak with a grain of salt, but at least we won’t have long to find out the truth as the Direct is just hours away.

How to watch movies in High on Life: Secret Movie Theatre explained – Dexerto
How to watch movies in High on Life: Secret Movie Theatre explained Squanch GamesIf you need a break from destroying aliens and being abused by talking guns in High on Life, you can actually sit down and watch four feature-length movies in their entirety. Here’s how to watch movies in High on Life, as well as every film packed into the theatre. High on Life was one of last year’s biggest successes, with millions of players jumping into the quirky FPS since it landed on Game Pass. And now it’s landed on PlayStation consoles. While High on Life has plenty of bizarre activities to complete, whether it’s blasting through the main story or slashing open every Luglox chest, it’s also brimming with secrets to discover. One of the most interesting is the ability to sit down and watch not one, but four movies from start to finish. If you’re a player with a taste for B-movie horror, then here’s every film in High on Life and how to watch them. Every High on Life movie you can watch In total, there are four different movies in High on Life, all of which can be watched in their entirety. As you’d expect from Justin Roiland, who also co-created Rick and Morty, each one is a hilarious, old B-movie that was largely panned by critics when it was released. Check out all High on Life movies that are watchable below: Tammy and the T-Rex (1994) – Demon Wind (1990) – Blood Harvest (1987) – Vampire Hookers (1978) – While none of these are known as classics of the genre, they certainly provide a fun distraction from all the chaos of High on Life, as well as showcasing Roiland’s twisted meta humor. How to watch movies in High on Life: Secret Movie Theatre To watch a full film in High on Life, all you have to do is head to your home where Gene will be playing them on the TV at various points of the campaign. Each is also broken up by commercial breaks, to be sure to keep watching even if there doesn’t seem to be one showing when you first enter the living room. The exception is Demon Wind, which can only be viewed in the in-game Movie Theatre. Tracking this down, or rather bringing it to you, is a little more complicated, so we’ve included a step-by-guide on how to access the Movie Theatre in High on Life: Collect three Warp Crystals. – Head to Blorto’s store in Blim City. – Use the Warp Crystals to purchase the Warp Disc. – Head to any Warp Point and summon the Movie Theatre. – This is the only way to watch Demon Wind in High on Life, but the other three options can also be shown. Watching any movie inside the portable cinema will also unlock the ‘We Paid For The Rights To Put A Whole Movie’ achievement. That was everything you need to know about how to watch movies in High on Life.

Concord – August 23, 2024 While not everyone is convinced that Concord will be a Call of Duty beater, fans of competitive multi-player shooters should take note. Developed by Firewalker Studios, Concord promises some addictive FPS action. However, does it have what it takes to stand up to COD and Apex? God of War Ragnarok (PC) – September 19, 2024 The sequel to God of War (4) will finally make its way to PC this September. The Norse Pantheon have Kratos and his son in their sights, but the Ghost of Sparta has a rather murderous track record when it comes to Gods who get in his way. God of War Ragnarok was one of the best PS5 games of 2022 so it’s great that PC players can soon experience the wrath of Kratos. Dynasty Warriors: Origins – 2025 In what is hopefully a return to form for the long-running hack-and-slash franchise, Dynasty Warriors: Origins looks set to wipe the slate clean and provide a more grounded take on the classic formula. Set during the dynastic wars of China’s early kingdoms, Dynasty Warriors will take the story back to its roots, letting players control some of history’s most legendary fighters. Infinity Nikki – Q3 2024 Infinity Nikki has been described as an “open-world dress-up adventure game” developed by Papergames. Players will control Nikki and her sidekick, Momo in a vast fantasy world which they explore together while customizing the look of both characters to help them progress and to look fabulous while doing so. Ballad of Antara – 2025 Ballad of Antara looks like an exciting blend of Soulslike and Final Fantasy. Players have two worlds to explore, one being the usual day-to-day land, while another is a darker hellscape known as the “Para”. The two worlds exist side-by-side each other and players will need to be able to survive in both depending on the quest they’re on. Behemoth Behemoth is a VR experience that puts players into the shoes of a warrior trying to defend their land from massive monsters that are attacking. The developers describe the game as a “Dark fantasy to stretch the boundaries of what’s possible inside a headset, creating a grim new world teeming with mystery and dangers great and small”. Alien: Rogue Incursion – Holiday 2024 In space, no one can hear you scream, but your neighbors certainly will. Alien Rogue Incursion will channel Ridley Scott’s original movie and 2014’s incredible Alien Isolation in a new VR experience that is bound to terrify even the bravest of souls. After all, there’s nothing scarier than being trapped in an abandoned spacecraft while a relentless Xenomorph hunts you. Marvel Rivals PlayStation Closed Beta – July 2024 The Marvel Rivals closed beta will arrive this summer, letting players finally be able to control their favorite Marvel superheroes and villains in an epic six vs. six third-person shootout. The game will be free-to-play and has a current lineup of 21 characters from across the Marvel Comics universe. Where Winds Meet Where Winds Meet is an upcoming Soulslike/open-world adventure that puts players in the shoes of a wandering swordsman during ancient China’s tumultuous Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms era. According to the game’s developers, players will explore a land ravaged by war and territorial disputes between warlords, where political intrigue, power struggles, and epic battles will shape the course of history. Until Dawn (PS5 and PC) – Fall 2024 Until Dawn was a PS4 classic that saw a group of teens become trapped in a cabin in the woods while a crazed killer – and something even scarier – hunted them from the shadows. In 2024, the legendary horror game will be remade for PS5 and PC. Get ready to face your fears all over again in a playable horror movie that you control. Path of Exile 2 (PS5) – 2024 The original Path to Exile was a hack-and-slash adventure that used the Diablo formula effectively. After learning from the first game, and feedback from players, Path to Exile 2 is set to be an experience that gives the mighty Diablo 4 a run for its money. If you like hacking monsters to bits while chasing ever-increasing amounts of loot, then you should mark Path of Exile 2’s release date on your calendar. Silent Hill 2 (Remake) – October 8, 2024 The remake of one of survival horror’s best adventures lands on PS5 this October. The original Silent Hill 2 involved a widowed husband called James returning to his favorite spot in the titular town after receiving a letter from his deceased wife. Gaming’s most haunted town is calling to him and James is unable to resist the siren song. What transpires is psychological descent into hell in a game that deals with grief, loss, and guilt. Monster Hunter Wilds – 2025 The long-awaited sequel to Monster Hunter World will take hunters out of the cozy towns and into the uncharted wilderness. The Monster Hunter series has gone from strength to strength in the past few years, and fans should be excited to see what the Wilds have in store for us. Spoiler alert, it’s likely to involve massive beasts and cute cats. Astro Bot – September 6, 2024 Those who purchased a PS5 might remember the cute tech demo that was bundled with it called Astro’s Playroom. Now, Astro Bot is getting a whole new adventure which looks like it’ll pick up from where the Playroom left off. It’ll be interesting to see if Sony can turn Astro Bot into the true mascot of the PS5 console. Don’t forget to check out the rest of the Summer Game Fest line-up, including the upcoming Xbox Showcase.

There wasn’t a lot of information shared during this, but we’re bound to learn more in the coming weeks.

Games Of course, the annual sports titles of FIFA and Madden seem to be a perfect match for the next EA Play Live. As well, we could see another Star Wars game announced during this event.

How to watch Dying Light 2’s second developer stream – Dexerto
How to watch Dying Light 2’s second developer stream TechlandTechland is giving fans another chance to get up to speed with all that has happened since the events of the first Dying Light game, and with Dying Light 2 releasing later this year, we are amped to find out more. The second installment of the beloved zombie survival RPG was first revealed during the beginning of June 2021, and has now set a release date for December 7, barring no delays from developer Techland. The new entry into the series is going to be set in a brand new location, and Techland is putting a large emphasis on player decisions this time around. But, we still don’t know much regarding the game, besides the few trailers, they have revealed thus far. Now, they have announced a brand new developer stream called “Dying 2 Know” which will be airing this week, which should give us more context into some aspects of Dying Light 2. How to watch Dying Light 2 developer stream Techland have announced that the second episode of their developer series, Dying 2 Know is going to occur this Thursday, July 1, and we can assume it will run around the same length as the first one, which was around 30 minutes long. During the first episode, we got an ample amount of news surrounding the game-we learned all about the three factions within the game, player choices, the environment, and more. If you are looking to tune into the next showcase, it will be live at the following times on July 1. 12:00 PM PST – 3:00 PM EST – 8:00 PM BST – 9:00 PM CEST – What to expect There is a lot of promise for what we could see during Techland’s second opportunity to get fans excited for the new game, we have our suspicions that there may be a focus on the combat during this stream. This was a feature that was not touched on during the first stream, and it is a major component of the Dying Light series. How we will be able to craft new weapons, and the types of gear we will be able to use are all essential aspects of the games, that we are sure Techland is going to dive into more soon. For now, we will have to wait and see what Techland has in store for us in the next iteration of the Dying 2 Know series.

The game developers have delayed the title’s release date on numerous occasions in the past, including on June 18, where they revealed they aren’t prepared to release something that’s not ready. So, the new launch date is November 19, instead of September 17, giving the studio another two months to tighten things up. We don’t have to wait until the late winter to get another look at gameplay, though, as more is set to be revealed during the Night City Wire event. So, we’ve put together a handy hub including the stream so you can watch along, start times, expected features, and more. Cyberpunk 2077 Night City Wire event start time The online event will kick off on June 25, giving fans a chance to see even more of the highly anticipated title.

In previous events, we have been given a closer look at the game and how it works, including a 48-minute long walkthrough back in August 2018. That time, Night City was (again) the main attraction and will likely be this time around, too. There’s always a chance, even this late in the development cycle, that we see something completely new get its own reveal as well – whether it be a new feature, character, or something along those lines. We’ll all have to wait and see.

What happened at Break the Record LIVE? – Dexerto
What happened at Break the Record LIVE? European Speedrunners Assembly / Kaspersky [jwplayer lCP5Wlfx] The fastest Doom Eternal speedrunners around took part in Break the Record: LIVE on 26 July – a speedrunning competition in which the goal was to set a new world record time for beating iD’s shooter with no major glitches. Break the Record: LIVE is the latest flagship speedrunning event from European Speedrunners Assembly in collaboration with cybersecurity company Kaspersky. American speedrunner xiae won with a new world record time of 1:08:52, picking up a cool $3,350. It was an exciting day of speedrunning action, as five competitors set personal bests while xiae set the highest standard by breaking the world record (and their own personal record by two minutes). Catch up on all the action below. Final leaderboard 1. xiae – 01:08:52 2. bowsr – 01:09:26 3. BloodShot9001 – 01:10:51 4. ShiningFace – 01:11:55 5. visconic – 01:12:27 6. Rampancy – 01:12:28 7. xamide – 01:14:26 Watch Break the Record: LIVE again Break the Record: LIVE took place on Sunday, July 26, with qualified runners able to attempt as many runs as possible between 10 AM CEST (1 AM PST / 4 AM EST / 9 AM BST) and 1 AM CEST (July 27) to achieve their fastest glitchless time. Runners had to start their last run before 10 PM CEST for it to count, giving all competitors 12 hours to establish the day’s top score and break the world record. You can rewatch all the action on ESA Marathon’s Twitch channel — which we’ve embedded below: The prize pool As with all major esports events, the prize pool was shared amongst the best players on the day. ESA’s prize pool was originally $5k, but Kaspersky boosted the total by $3k so it finished at $8k. The fastest runner received a bonus $750, bringing the total for first prize to $3,350. As a perk for participation, all competitors received a cut of the total prize money. 1st: xiae, $3,350 – 2nd: bowsr, $2,000 – 3rd: BloodShot9001, $1,000 – 4th: ShiningFace, $750 – 5th: visconic, $500 – 6th: Rampancy, $250 – 7th: xamide, $250 – Kaspersky also offered a $2.5k sponsorship to the world record holder at the time of qualification cut-offs. Going into the event, the speedrunner bowsr was the Kaspersky Flag Carrier – so they left the event with a whopping $4,500 total. The American player originally earned this accolade with a time of 1 hour, 10 minutes, 30 seconds and 630ms, a strong performance until xiae cracked through. Raising money for charity As with previous ESA Marathon events, Break the Record: LIVE is raising money for charity, with proceeds going to the Swedish Alzheimer Foundation. Last summer’s event – which saw players set fast times in games such as Super Mario 64, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Dark Souls, and Tony Hawk’s Underground – helped raise $85,945.

How to use the cannons in The Finals – Dexerto
How to use the cannons in The Finals Embark StudiosThe Finals has a plethora of items littered across the battlefield, including canisters filled with explosives or gas, chairs, tables, and cannons. Here is how you can use cannons in the game. The Finals features a plethora of new mechanics and items for players to experiment with. However, one thing that almost everyone is doing is using the items that populate the game’s battlefield across every map to their advantage. From using canisters as homing missiles to placing turrets on chairs to throw at enemies, almost anything can be a weapon in the arena. One weapon that some players might not know about is the cannons that dot the arena on maps like Monaco and Seoul. The cannons in The Finals and their uses The cannons are scattered across some maps in The Finals and can be useful for players who want to create an opening in a building or unleash chaos next to a cash box. To use a cannon, all players need to do is stand behind the gun, press interact, and watch it take down the face of whatever building it is facing. The cannons cannot be used immediately after firing and will need time to reload on their own. The cannons are not moveable and the explosives do hurt, and can even kill enemies. But getting a kill with it requires more luck than skill as players cannot aim with the weapon. Some players are just discovering that these map weapons are useable, and not just set decoration. Unlike canisters, the meta for these cannons has yet to be established and could be innovated in the future. The cannons are like the wrecking ball and crane on maps with unfinished areas and can be useful depending on the situation. However, they’re not something to obsess over in every match. This is all you need to know about using cannons in The Finals.

How to use Teleporter in Lethal Company – Dexerto
How to use Teleporter in Lethal Company ZeekerssLethal Company features a lot of tools you can use to survive out in brutal space. The Teleporter is particularly handy if you need to escape a terrible situation too. Here’s exactly how to use it in the game. Lethal Company is the latest indie title to have gotten immensely popular on Steam and Twitch. This (hilarious) horror game is a primarily co-op experience, where you and up to three friends make a crew to recover as much scrap and resources as possible on derelict moons. It’s all in service of maximizing profits to appease your corporate overlords enough to allow them to let you live another day. A lot of handy items are available to use in the game that can help you out in hostile situations with the various monsters lurking on the moons. Few bring as much to the table as the Teleporter though, as it is one of the most useful resources to invest in. However, there are two kinds, and they certainly have their own quirks. To help you out, here’s exactly how to get and use the Teleporter in Lethal Company. How to use the Teleporter in Lethal Company Before you can use a Teleporter in Lethal Company you’ll first have to purchase one from the in-game store that you can access in your ship for 375 Credits. While it’s on the pricier side compared to most items in the game, it’s worth investing in as it can swiftly get you out of some sticky situations. Once you’ve purchased the Teleporter, you’ll find it located on your ship to the side, with a big red button sitting next to to your control panel. You can then use the Teleporter to teleport one of your fellow crewmates back to the safety of the ship. To do this follow the steps below: Pressing the white button next to the screen above your console will change who you’re monitoring. – Keep an eye on your crewmates via the ship’s monitor screen. – If you notice a crewmate is in a dangerous situation, press the red button on the desk and the Teleporter will activate. – It’s important to note, your crewmate will then arrive on the ship having lost all their items and equipment. You will want to make sure it is life or death, otherwise you will miss out on scrap they were carrying. – It’s worth noting that once the Teleporter has been used it will take 10 seconds to cooldown before it can be activated again. How to use the Inverse Teleporter Alongside the standard Teleporter, the game also features an Inverse Teleporter that you can purchase for 425 Credits. This device will teleport your team to a random location in the Facility as opposed to the safety of your ship. It’s also worth noting, it has a cooldown period of 3 minutes and 30 seconds. To use an Inverse Teleporter, simply press the yellow button on the desk near the device then step inside. It’s certainly riskier to use but if you want to roll the dice, you can get to finding scrap in the facility instantly – if you have a good teleport. Just be aware, like the other teleporter, you will drop all your items, so do be comfortable with navigating the facilities without a flashlight. That’s everything you need to know about Teleporters in Lethal Company!

How to use SID for hacking in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora – Dexerto
How to use SID for hacking in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora UBISOFTThe war between the Na’vi and the humans is the main focus of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. With all the technology involved in the fight against the RDA, you’ll need to learn how to hack enemy weapons with SID, an essential device that will help you clear your path in the game’s missions. SID – Systems Interrogation Device – is a special gadget you’ll obtain during your adventure that will become essential to your arsenal because of the variety of purposes it serves. This tool not only allows you to hack into enemy devices to sabotage them, but it can also repair all the broken electronic machines that block your path during missions. If you want to sneak into enemy outposts without being caught, here’s how to take advantage of the SID in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. How to get SID in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora The SID was created by Alexander Tremayne, a human scientist who happens to be a Na’vi sympathizer. You’ll be introduced to this tool during the main quest “Welcome to the Resistance”, right after you heal So’lek. So don’t worry about missing it, or having to search for it in the vast -and sometimes overwhelming – open world of Pandora. Once you get the SID from Alexander Tremayne, he’ll ask you to help him fix a bunch of power boxes. This serves as a useful tutorial on how to properly operate the tool, but in case you didn’t pay attention, here’s a step-by-step guide on how to hack in the game. How to use SID in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora Once you acquire this device, hold LB+Y (Xbox)/L1+△ (PS5), or 5 (PC) to take the SID out and equip it. Then, aim it at any machine you’d like to hack into. If that particular machine is hackable, you’ll see a circle with a wrench inside of it, and the circuits that connect it to another source will start to glow. If such a machine is a weapon, you can hack in right there (jump from step 3 to step 7). However, if it’s connected to something else, you’ll have to follow the glowing wires to reach every part of it. To start the hacking process follow these steps: Aim the SID to the node with the wrench icon on your hacking target. – Lightly press RT (Xbox)/R2 (PS5)/left-click+E or Q (PC) until both circles overlap. – As soon as both circles overlap, release every button. – Follow the glowing wires to the next part and repeat the previous steps. – Once you reach the faulty node, the wrench icon on the target will be replaced by a circuit web icon. – Repeat steps 1-3 and wait for the minigame to pop up. – Use the left stick to move and create a path from the starting point to the exit. – Once you reach the exit (the point on the map with the circuit web icon), the machine will be disabled/triggered. – Sometimes, the minigame map will have obstacles, so just be careful and find a way to go around them. However, keep in mind that you have to be quick because every maze has a timer. That’s it. That’s all you need to know about hacking with the SID in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora.

How to use Resolute Counterflow skill in Black Myth: Wukong – Dexerto
How to use Resolute Counterflow skill in Black Myth: Wukong Game ScienceOne particular Black Myth: Wukong skill has a description that players may find confusing, which is Resolute Counterflow. This action RPG based on Chinese mythology will have the player tackling dozens of enemies and bosses while simultaneously unlocking new skills from the skill tree. Upon leveling up, you may eventually come across Resolute Counterflow, one of the skills under Staff Stances. Its description is a bit wordy and convoluted, leading many players to question what it means in places like the game’s Steam discussion forum. If you’re one of many wondering how the Resolute Counterflow skill works in Black Myth: Wukong, here’s everything you need to know. How Resolute Counterflow works Resolute Counterflow allows players to perform a Heavy Attack during a Light Attack combo by consuming one Focus Point. This grants you the Resolute Strike ability. The Resolute Strike part is what may be most confusing for fans, but it’s quite simple once broken down. Resolute Strike allows you to see through an incoming attack and nullify the enemy’s damage. Essentially, you must use Resolute Counterflow before an enemy is about to strike. Another thing to note is that enemies that are “seen” are easier to stagger, so this skill debuffs the enemy in two different ways. To perform a Resolute Strike, start hitting the enemy with a Light Attack combo (hit a few Light Attacks in a row) and make sure you have one Focus Point. You’ll see Focus collect at the bottom right corner of your screen with each strike you make, and once the bar is full, the circle will fill with a Focus Point. From there, you can perform a Heavy Attack sometime during your Light Attack combo to initiate Resolute Strike. You’ll know you’ve hit the enemy with a Resolute Strike when you see a bright spark emit from your staff, which is a good indicator of when you’ve performed it successfully. The final Heavy Attack you do to trigger Resolute Strike also acts as a great cancel maneuver to stop your Light Attack combo. If you see the enemy about to strike but you’re stuck in a combo, hit them with that Heavy Attack and you’ll quickly get out of it. Now that you understand this Staff Stance skill, check out our other guides to help you master Black Myth: Wukong’s combat.

How to use new potions in latest Minecraft 1.21 snapshot – Dexerto
How to use new potions in latest Minecraft 1.21 snapshot MinecraftThe latest Minecraft snapshot update adds four new potions for players to make. Here’s how to make them and what their uses are. The latest snapshot for Minecraft’s upcoming 1.21 update introduces a plethora of new features including items, wolves, mobs, and more to the beloved game’s universe. On Twitter/X, user Silent Whisper has shared details about the new potions in the game along with the ingredients required to craft them. However, official images of these potions have yet to be unveiled. The latest additions to Minecraft’s potion roster include Potions of Weaving, Oozing, Wind Charging, and Infestation. But, some players are perplexed by the practical applications of these new concoctions. Potion of Weaving To brew this potion, players can combine Nether Wart with a cobweb using a brewing stand. Upon utilization, this potion enables mobs to effortlessly move through cobwebs while also generating webs upon their death. Potion of Oozing The Potion of Oozing has a unique ability to allow any mob to drop two slime balls upon death, something that makes collecting slime much easier. However, a full block of slime is required to be able to craft it. Potion of Wind Charging Wind Charges mark is another recent addition to Minecraft, granting players a brief boost in vertical height. However, with the Potion of Wind Charging, mobs will mobs explode in wind on death. The implications regarding whether this potion will make the mob drop additional Wind Charges are unknown. A Breeze Rod and Nether Wart are used to craft this potion. Potion of Infestation One of the more confusing potions is the Potion of Infestation which gives mobs the chance to spawn Silverfish when hurt. Silverfish are yet another hostile mob that can often be found when searching for the End Portal. The potion can be made using a Nether Wart and a block of stone. Minecraft players were confused with these potion additions, wondering what situation they would be used in. This is criticism for everything but the Potion of Oozing, which players said would be nice to collect Slime Balls from. “I just wonder, what exactly is the point of these? If anything this will make it harder to deal with mobs.” said one commenter. There is no set release date for the whole Minecraft 1.21 patch, but it appears that Minecraft will slowly start releasing updates through snapshots for the time being. To download the latest snapshot, be sure to check the version of Minecraft you are using.

How to use mass subs in College Football 25 Dynasty mode – Dexerto
How to use mass subs in College Football 25 Dynasty mode College Football 25 added mass subs, which allows players to put in backups at every position for offense and defense. However, the new feature is easy to miss if you aren’t sure where to look. Unlike the NFL, which only has 32 teams filled with the most elite football talent in the world, Division I football features 134 different programs. That means there isn’t enough talent to adequately fill every roster. With that in mind, many games every season result in massive score differences. When the scoreline gets out of reach, the winning team usually puts in backups to preserve its best players. However, College Football 25 launched without a way to make mass subs, which players complained about. Some have said this led to their players getting unnecessarily injured in Dynasty mode. Fortunately, EA heard the feedback loud and clear and added mass subs in the August 29 update. Mass sub feature explained Here is a simple step-by-step guide to use mass subs: Pause the game – Scroll down and select the coaching tab – Press “mass sub backups”Mass Sub Backups” at the bottom of the dropdown list – Confirm the change – After that, all your second-string players for every position will enter the game. If you want to revert the change, you can follow those steps to put all the starters back in. We recommend that players take advantage of this feature whenever they can, especially considering the new wear and tear system in College Football 25 that accurately tracks the impact of every hit and fall. For example, if a running back takes a huge shot to his knee or lower leg, he won’t be as explosive on the following set of plays. To avoid getting injured, players can get the ball out early, cover up the ball, or get out of bounds before taking a hit. Substituting players will be helpful for avoiding injuries over the course of a long season. For more on Dynasty, check out our guides on recruiting and how to use red and green diamonds.

How to use Ghost of Tsushima photo mode – Dexerto
How to use Ghost of Tsushima photo mode PlayStation[jwplayer 91I9RIGm]Ghost of Tsushima released on July 17 after months of anticipation, with rave reviews and a great reception online to Sucker Punch Productions’ latest effort. The action-adventure game revolves around Jin Sakai, one of the last remaining samurai on Tsushima Island during the first Mongol invasion of Japan in 1274, featuring an open-world and multiple side quests along the way. One thing that is dragging players away from the core gameplay, though, is the incredible aesthetics of the game, and the best way of showing this off is in photo mode. Like many other games, Ghost of Tsushima’s photo mode provides an opportunity to show off your achievements to the world, but also to capture some of the more picturesque scenes you stumble upon. There are some beautiful areas in Tsushima, such as the Omi Monastery or around the Field of the Equinox Flower, but it’s not enough to simply go there and grab a screenshot; you can actually use photo mode to make it look even better. Here’s how to use Ghost of Tsushima’s photo mode, and get the best quality pictures in the game: Find a setting that you want to take a photo of and position Jin accordingly. – Hit right on the D-Pad to open photo mode. – Adjust the settings, including type of shot, music (for a video, if desired), and more to get the perfect shot — trial and error is key here. – Take a screenshot using the PS4’s share button. – Press right on the D-Pad again to close photo mode. – And that’s it! It’s a relatively pain-free process, but one that you can spend as much time on as you want, and you can easily find time flies by while you’re setting up the perfect shot. As well as what’s mentioned above, you can also change Jin’s emotion and facial expressions, the wind direction, lighting, color hues and more, so the possibilities are endless with Ghost of Tsushima’s photo mode. So jump into Tsushima Island and see what you can come up with — you might just surprise yourself with your photography skills.

With its integration finally here, here’s how to link your accounts and how to use Discord voice chat on your PlayStation 5. If you’ve always preferred using Discord to speak to your friends then the new feature on the PlayStation 5 will be perfect. As previously seen for Xbox, PlayStation has introduced Discord to its voice features, allowing players the chance to communicate on the software rather than on party chat. Since February 2, 2023, Discord has been available for PlayStation users, even if it’s only for those part of the beta testing. Now, Sony has dropped a new Discord chat update for PS5 users, making it easier than ever to voice call friends on the pixel-pushing console. How to link Discord account to the PlayStation 5 Open settings on your PlayStation. – Click Users and Accounts. – Select Linked Services. – Click on the new Discord ability and it’ll start the linking process. – Scan the QR code and put the code on the screen. – The two accounts will now be linked. – Linking your Discord to your PS5 is the first step to using Discord voice chat. After all, you’ll need access to Discord before placing it on your PlayStation. With that in mind, the first thing you’ll need to do is make sure you have an account for both services. Once those are made, following the above steps will link both of those accounts together. Alternatively, you can also link up your accounts by selecting ‘Game Base’ from the PS5 control center toolbar and navigating to the Discord icon. After selecting the Discord icon for the first time, you will prompted to link your account in the same process as when going through the console settings. While both methods do the same job, linking accounts straight from Game Base can speed up the linking process. How to use Discord on your PS5 Select Game Base from PS5 control center – Select Discord tab – Choose the Discord server or DM group you’d like to join. – Select your preferred voice channel where you’ll be able to see key details such as who is in the group. – Once you’re accounts are linked, voice calling friends individually, or joining the voice channels on your existing Discord servers, is a breeze. You can access your Discord friends, and channels, by selecting the Game Base icon on the PS5 control center. Here, navigating to and selecting the Discord icon on the left-hand side will reveal the list of all the channels you’re currently a member of. If instead, you want to call a friend directly, selecting ‘Direct Voice Chats’ will reveal all your most recent chat history, the same way as on the desktop app. As well as this, the PlayStation 5 will also send notifications to users when another person is trying to call them. And there you have it. That’s everything you need to know about connecting Discord to your PS5, and how to use the voice chat feature. If this new Discord integration isn’t available to you on Game Base, don’t panic. Ensuring your PS5 console is up to date will give you access to the brand-new Discord voice-calling features. If you have a Discord server and want to add some bots to enhance the experience, here are some of the best Discord bots for music, moderation & games to add in 2023. Or, if you want to use Discord on your Xbox, we have a handy guide explaining just how that works.

How to use arena carriables in The Finals to deal damage – Dexerto
How to use arena carriables in The Finals to deal damage Embark StudiosThe Finals allows you to complete challenges and gain massive XP in return. One of the challenges you will come across is to deal damage through arena carriables. Here is a guide on how you can do that in the game. The Finals is a fun free-to-play first-person shooter in the market and players have been grinding ever since its launch. The game, alongside the ranked grind, also provides customization options. You can earn gear as a reward either by leveling up or through the battle pass. As it happens, the process of earning experience requires challenge completion. One of the challenges you can find is to deal damage through arena carriables and here’s a guide on how to do it in The Finals. How to use arena carriables in The Finals The process of dealing damage through arena carriables is quite simple. All you need to do is throw them at your opponents directly at the correct moment. You can do this by pressing F on your Keyboard, Triangle for PS5, or Y on Xbox. There are a total of five kinds of carriables you can find in the game. These are: Goo cylinders: Creates a wall upon breaking and can be used for self-protection. – Explosive cylinders: Explodes upon contact and deals massive AoE (area of effect) damage. – Poison cylinders: Releases poisonous game in an area after explosion. – Flammable cylinders: Explodes once they are shot after being thrown at an enemy. – Powder cylinders: Create a layer of smoke once they explode. – Each of these cylinders has its use and you will have to decide how to use them efficiently to your team’s advantage. However, simply throwing these carriables at your opponents might not be fun. Instead, you would want to nuke them in the game. To perform a one-shot canister combo, you need to attach a C4 to the cylinders before throwing them.

How to use Atomic Heart scanner – Dexerto
How to use Atomic Heart scanner MundfishAtomic Heart gives players a scanner that acts as a modern environment-sweeping tool to provide useful information. But it’s not entirely clear how to use it, so let’s quickly show you how to use it. We gave Atomic Heart a solid review with lots of praise dished out to the game’s outstanding visuals, its gritty gameplay, and the climax of its story. The game was prone to some technical difficulties here and there though, and one aspect that players think might be bugged is actually one of the game’s opening tutorials. The in-game scanner lets P-3 get a more in-depth look at his environment allowing him to spot crucial quest elements and find useful resources. This is when you get it working though, so let’s quickly run through how Atomic Heart’s scanner works. Atomic Heart scanner guide Contrary to what the Atomic Heart tutorial tells you, in order to use the scanner in the game, players need to press R1 on a PlayStation controller, or RB on an Xbox controller, then press the same button again in quick succession, but on the second press hold onto the button. The same instructions apply to PC gamers too, just make sure you’re pressing the equivalent keybind on your Atomic Heart configuration. The game tells players to “Hold R1 + R1” to use the scanner but doing this doesn’t actually do anything because chronologically this command is incorrect. We’re unsure if this is simply a translation error that was missed in testing, or perhaps an overlooked bug. Regardless, this issue should, hopefully, get rectified over time. You should now be able to use Atomic Heart’s scanner, and if you want more guides for the game, check out the rest of our coverage below: Best guns & melee weapons to use in Atomic Heart | Best skills to upgrade in Atomic Heart | How to access Polygon Testing Ground chambers in Atomic Heart | Does Atomic Heart have microtransactions? | Is Atomic Heart open-world? | Is Atomic Heart on Xbox Game Pass? | Does Atomic Heart have multiplayer or co-op? | Atomic Heart PC Requirements: Minimum & recommended specs | Atomic Heart controversy explained
