Now this is how you do it. Next week, Vigil Games is putting out a 90-minute demo for its recent action adventure gameDarksiders. That’s happening on February 25 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The demo isn’t timed or anything — Vigil believes it’ll take most gamers about that long to see the conclusion. All of Twilight Cathedral, the game’s first dungeon, will be playable, hence the demo’s unusually generous length....
Point and Shoot It’s been a long time coming, but a new update for Arkane’s chrono-shooterDeathloophas finally arrived, bringing with it a selection of much-needed accessibility options. Game Update 3 is now available to download on both the PS5 and PC editions of the game. WhileDeathloopreceived a whole host of plaudits upon its release in the fall of 2021, players were dismayed to discover that the clock-winding adventure features next to nothing in the way of accessibility options....
Update 1.1.1 Bungie has been teasing a big change for Strikes (dungeons) going forward, and drumroll…it turns out that it’s matchmaking for Weekly Heroic Strikes. As one of the three “weekly” events you’re able to do for rewards (Heroics, Nightfalls, and raids), you’ll now be able to play with two other people even without a group — the latter two still do not have matchmaking but as always, Bungie is “looking into it....

It’s unclear when the problem might get fixed, but here are some steps you could try to ensure that there are no problems at your end....

This recentIt Takes Twojoke is gold Sakurai is done withSmashfor now(so you’re saying there’s still a chance), but he isn’t done hanging out. The joke in the tweet mentions howIt Takes Twowon the top spot at The Game Awards 2021, then talks about how it’s a barrier to entry that it’s a two-person game that can possibly be tackled alone. Sakurai provides his classic “playing two characters at once” stance as he dons two PlayStation 5 controllers....
Because nothing screams microtransactions like streaming Loot boxes have been slowly invading different games, so why not also start invading streaming services? In apromotion for Halloween, Twitch is bringing out some special, limited emotes that can potentially be unlocked via a loot box. Nothing screams pseudo-gambling to me like live streaming. For those unaware of how Twitch actually pays streamers, the company has their own form of currency called bits. People buy bits in different allotments and can then cheer at streamers as a sort of donation....

As if cornering an assassin against a cliff has ever worked Just three days ago we got somenew screensfor the upcomingAssassin’s Creed Rogue, but it seems like Ubisoft is intent on releasing a slow trickle of media leading up to its November 11 release. Today, we have a video detailing the titular rogue, who was once an Assassin, but jumped ship (har har) and now identifies as a Templar. The trailer is nice and serene, with a whale spotting, other wildlife interaction, and a friendly gathering at a local vista....
Suit up It’s somehow almost October, which will mean nights of AMC-approved horror flicks running in the background because I can’t be bothered to dig through my DVDs and, soon enough, PlayStation VR. I’m now in the process of sorting through the PSVR launch list (October 13) and figuring out what’s obviously good, what shows promise, and what is liable to result in buyer’s remorse. I’d probably put this horror game,Here They Lie, in one of the latter categories (based on this trailer, anyway)....
