Its 7.1 surround sound is capable of delivering fantastic range and depth, while 50mm drivers power the headphones. The mic is detachable and unidirectional, meaning the noise-cancelling is exceptional and don’t have to worry too much about background noise bleeding into your gaming party. And it’s functional too, with volume controls on-ear, including the ability to mute audio entirely. Given it comes with a 2.4GHz USB adapter, you’re sure to have a lag-free, reliable experience....

There’s not much to say about the DLSS implementation, except to say that it’s just as impressive as other recent outings and a great addition to the game. Once again, elements of the visual presentation are actually improved over native rendering and while there is some TAA-style ghosting, it’s hardly noticeable in the thick of the action. What I particularly enjoyed about this particular use of DLSS is that post-process sharpening can be manually tweaked within the command console - access to which I’d dearly like to see as a standard in all DLSS-supported titles....

These are purple objects which can appear in Patrol zones and the Shattered Realm, and are visible from afar thanks to a glowing purple light. That said, some are easier to find than others - and with each one found, you earn a small amount of Parallax Trajectory. Reaching certain milestones of Ascendant Anchors found will also earn you Seasonal Milestones - such as Ascendant Ballast. On this page: This quickly moves the questline to a Shattered Realm mission, but is designed to show that Ascendant Anchors are available in the Patrol area for that week - on a rotation between the EDZ, Tangled Shore and Moon....

This single-shot grenade launcher occupies your energy weapon slot, leaving you free to select any heavy weapon that strikes your fancy. The grenades emit a wave of damage when they detonate, making this one of the best player-versus-environment (PVE) grenade launchers in the game. This page will detail how to get Forbearance in Destiny 2, and which Forbearance god rolls you should pursue for maximum effect. On this page: Different portions of raids have different loot pools....

Every week, a new encounter of the King’s Fall raid adds unique conditions that, if satisfied, double the rewards for Guardians - with a special added bonus for those also playing on Master difficulty. This page explains what the King’s Fall challenge is this week, the upcoming schedule, and how challenge rewards work.

Each season, there is a rotation of weapons that can drop from the end of the strike, with one being highlighted per week. The higher the challenge, the higher the drop rate - with Adept versions being available in the second half of seasons for those who really want a challenge (and a reward to match). On this page: For Season of the Splicer, these weapons are Hung Jury SR4, Uzume RR4 and Plug One....

The Lay D Denton Project, created by a group of modders collectively know as Lay D Dev, dds a feature cut early in the development of Ion Storm’s influential immersive sim: the ability to select the protagonist’s gender. The mod is a significant effort. All of JC Denton’s 1700 lines of dialogue have been re-recorded by voice actress Karen Rohan, under the vocal direction of Chris Rohan. “The performance strives to faithfully preserve the character of JC,” reads the mod description....

Through dozens of photos and letters and ledgers and scribbled ideas for business names, Livingstone finds a way to transport us back into history in a way I never could. Dice Men is rammed with memorabilia - and rare, valuable memorabilia at that. How about pictures of the first Dungeons & Dragons printing runs ever to hit the UK? They’re here - check. How about the first editions of the iconic White Dwarf magazine, or the Owl & Weasel newsletter that predated it?...

Doubling down on its commitment to the Battlefield franchise - and fixing the recent embattled Battlefield 2042 in particular - DICE has ruled out a return for any of its other franchises for now. Speaking to Eurogamer sister site GamesIndustry.biz, DICE’s recently-appointed general manager Rebecka Coutaz confirmed any project such as Mirror’s Edge was currently sat on the backburner. “Totally,” Coutaz said. “We are only focusing on Battlefield 2042. There is no time for anything else and this is what we want to do....

The EA developer announced that Season 5 for the game has entered pre-production, which goes beyond the obligatory four seasons of content it owed to Year 1 battle pass subscribers. “Across our team continuing to focus on Battlefield 2042, we have a mix of veteran developers alongside those working on their first game breathing in new life,” DICE states in its latest blog post. Interestingly, DICE has said that it will lean into elements of previous games to add to the depth of Battlefield 2042: “[I]n Season 5 you’re going to see us lean into previous games and how they can show up in the world of 2042....

As of today, anyone on either console will be able to connect directly to Discord Voice chats in order to talk with their friends, wherever they may be. The actual process required to do so, though, is a little convoluted, and first demands that users link their Xbox account to their Discord account - a process that’ll need to be redone if done previously, so new permissions needed for voice chat on Xbox can be confirmed....

While still currently referred to in press materials and on the game’s official site as an MMO, this no longer the case, Pearl Abyss announced this morning via Twitter. “DokeV was initially introduced as an MMO, but we decided to move the game in a different direction and it’s now a creature-collecting open world action-adventure,” the DokeV account stated. “But regardless of genre, we’re going for fun, vibrant, and adventurous!...

Bethesda had already trumpeted that the launch of Doom Eternal was the series’ best-ever in terms of opening week sales, but at the time the publisher didn’t give exact figures, instead only confirming the game had doubled the launch weekend revenue of Doom’s 2016 reboot. Now, however, a statement on a former id Software developer’s LinkedIn profile has revealed those numbers translated to $450 million in revenue (thanks, ResetEra) - that’s £323 million....

In a statement published to the Torchlight 3 website, Echtra Games chief Max Schaefer said Echtra Games had handed Torchlight 3 back to IP owner Perfect World Entertainment following the developer’s acquisition by FarmVille publisher Zynga in March. “As you may have heard in the news, we were acquired by Zynga back on March 2nd,” Schaefer said. “As a result of this transition, we are moving on to new (and exciting) things, and we will be passing the baton back to our partners at Perfect World....

The Souls games are notorious for including dark, dank swamp areas filled with toxic enemies: the nightmarish Valley of Defilement in Demon’s Souls, or the endless depths of Blighttown in Dark Souls. Elden Ring is set to also include poison areas, of course. That’s because Miyazaki loves them - he just can’t help himself. “In terms of how the player feels when they encounter this area that is a different story,” Miyazaki told Game Informer....

It’s another huge get for the Swedish conglomerate, which owns an increasingly enormous share of the video games industry. It also means Embracer will soon be in charge of the Middle-earth film and TV rights - and it’s already talking about a fresh set of spin-offs and sequels. But what does this mean for Lord of the Rings video games? Will Embracer put some/many of its 100+ studios to work on Middle-earth projects?...

Developer CCP has also announced the notoriously complex space MMO launches on the Epic Games Store on 23rd September. CCP said this launch makes Eve Online “the premier MMO on the platform”. Quadrant 3: Gateway, as the new player experience is known, revolves around a series of themed activities designed to welcome new and returning players to the 18-year-old Eve Online. The new trailer is below: The revamped onboarding experience is described as a “rich, emotionally-driven narrative” available to players who arrive in-game for the first time....

Writing on the Mass Effect reddit, former BioWare designer Richard Boisvert explained the Easter egg was his creation, and there was a specific path players had to follow in order to see it properly. “As far as I know no one ever stumbled upon it,” Boisvert wrote. A year ago, a fan did find the Easter egg while playing with a modded version of Mass Effect 3 where you could freely manipulate its camera and see out of bounds areas....
