Earier this month, we saw workers’ rights group, A Better Ubisoft, push for more tangible reforms at the publisher after noting that the company has done nothing more than simply acknowledge the need for changes after 2020’s bombshell investigations revealed multiple examples of employee misconduct at the company. Eager to keep the momentum up and fixing to pile the pressure on the French company, A Better Ubisoft has now launched a new petition, open for all supporters of the collective’s cause to sign....

This is according to the Epic Games Store which listed the date on the game’s store page through the “Pre-Purchase Bonus” section (thanks, Gematsu). According to the page, which has since removed the information and now has it listed as “coming soon,” the pre-purchase bonus is a Fortnite glider resembling Sully’s seaplane. The glider is to be made available immediately upon pre-purchase, or you can wait until November 17 after it hits the Fortnite shop....

PlayStation Access published a video earlier today which mentioned April’s PS Plus games will be Uncharted 4 and Dirt Rally 2.0. Apparently, someone pushed the publish button a bit early on the YouTube channel because the video is now listed as private. The video was originally put up as unlisted, according to resetera, which got the information off reddit. So, it looks like those might be your two free games on PS4 for the month of April....

“We enjoyed working with Corecell on our first project together and Corecell were very happy with the success of this. We were pleased to work again with Corecell on Aeternoblade 2 and, despite delays and quality issues we endeavoured to release the game in October 2019 for them as they requested. At our post launch meeting in January 2020 Corecell acknowledged significant product quality issues and agreed to provide critical fixes in order to make the game commercially viable....

To craft Greater or Primal Blood Essence and keep your castle heart happy, or craft better armor, you’ll need to get your hands on the recipes for each essence and collect plenty of it, which isn’t the easiest feat. V Rising does a good job of telling you how to go about the early game, but as you approach the mid-game and further, finding the materials required for various missions or crafting projects - including Unsullied Hearts and Greater or Primal Blood Essence - isn’t always so obvious....

Today, February 2, marks an entire year since Valheim first launched, and as part of the celebration, the game has been discounted through the Steam Lunar Sale. Instead of the usual $19.99, it’s on sale for 25% off at $14.99 now and through the weekend. The studio also announced it is bringing the game to Steam Deck and is working on ensuring it will run as smoothly as possible on the handheld system....

The world of Valheim is a sprawling archipelago composed of many varied ecosystems. The map is revealed as you explore, so it’s a good idea to know what you’re getting into and how to make the most of it.

When temperatures get this high, you can count on electronic manufacturers to issue warnings that such heat will interfere with the performance of their devices. Like Nintendo before it, Valve also warned owners of the Steam Deck that the handheld will throttle its performance when it gets too hot. This is actually standard behaviour for the Deck and many other devices when their internal temperature reaches a certain point. This will happen much faster when room temperature increases, of course, meaning your Deck is more likely to run worse than you want it because it keeps slowing itself down to control its internal temperature....

“What on EARTH are you going on about now” replied Burns, already tired of this. Jim thought for a second, looking down at his floppy Meatball Marinara, freshly purchased from Croydon’s worst Subway (which takes some doing). “Well, consider food.” “The stuff you eat?” said Burns. “Yeah”, Jim clarified. “So like, the best thing you can get from McDonald’s-” “Big Tasty”, Burns interrupted. “Yeah so -” Jim continued: “The Big Tasty with bacon,” “No, just the Big Tasty” Burns interrupted again....

It’s a simple fact that video games, unlike almost every other art form, just don’t age very well. A huge driver for this is how the medium’s development is intrinsically tied to technological advancement, but there are other unique factors that make it challenging to revisit older games, things like standardised controls, user interface language, and quality-of-life features that we take for granted, despite many of them having only been invented within the last decade....

Voidtrain is a new title coming to you courtesy of development studio Nearga. It is a first-person action-survival game and was revealed today during IGN’s Summer of Gaming event. In it, you will become a crew member of an interdimensional train that rides through a world of “amazing creatures, dangers, and surprises.” You will be able to upgrade your train, gather new materials, and build better weapons. It can be played in single-player or with up to four people in multiplayer....

While before we’ve reported that some cheaters were starting to break through the initial safeguards added to the game through the implementation of Ricochet, this damage nerf seems to have been stealthily added in a tiny update last Friday. For a visual representation of how this works, the current top post of the Warzone Reddit shows one such cheater falling victim to this adaptation of the anti-cheat. You can see how as they continue to empty a full magazine into another player, without a single bullet missing or the recoil jumping around at all, the damage scales all the way down....

Releasing January 20, only a week after the mid-season update, the pack contains the following goodies: The Survey Corps operator skin. Three new weapon blueprints, including a new dual-wield melee weapon blueprint. A secret key weapon charm. One Hot Potato sticker. Wings of Freedom emblem. An Attack on Titan finisher, MVP highlight, and highlight intro. There’s no word on how much this is going to cost as of yet, but if we take a look at the bundles currently offered in Warzone we can make an educated guess....

In particular, the stream will focus on updates to already announced games from the company’s wider Xbox Game Studios label. Some of those will be first-party, and others developed in partnership with outside teams. Of course, you can also expect some Xbox Game Pass news, as many of the titles shown will likely be available on the subscription service. The show kicks off today at 10am PT, 1pm ET, 6pm UK....

Revealed in 2017 during The Game Awards, the game is slated to come to early access “soon” through the Epic Games Store. The game is also in development for other platforms. In the fantasy roguelite first-person shooter set in an alternative world, witches are real and very dangerous. As a witch hunter armed with strange weapons and forbidden pagan magic, you are hunting a powerful witch who holds the key to your salvation....

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is the new action title from Team Ninja and Koei Tecmo (no, not Rise of the Ronin – we’re not going to see that for another few years yet), and in a series of trailers, it demonstrated how it immediately intends to separate itself from the developer’s previous Nioh games. There’s a jump button! There are no stances! You cannot ki pulse! It’s much quicker! It’s set in China instead of Japan!...

The content set to release next for Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem consisted of new league content and a new chapter; however, Wolcen Studio will instead focus on fixing several issues and improving testing. An external QA team has been brought on board to help improve the testing process which will help spot issues quicker before putting a new version of the game live. Patch 1.0.10 is set to go live early next week....

The trailer doesn’t really go into detail on the game’s features. Rather, it establishes the tone of the game as a gritty, realistic shooter that doesn’t spare the player on how hellish the battlefield can be. The music, a combination of organ and electric guitar riffs, furthers the hell motif. Deceptively, the gameplay in Hell Let Loose stands apart from other war shooters by having you directly controlling a small squad while coordinating with other squads in 50 vs....
