EA and BioWare rightly realized that the original Mass Effect was a creaky, awkward game in many respects - but also understood that many aspects that made it so were also things that made it special and unique. Mass Effect 2 and 3 are great games, make no mistake - but the trend towards more constrained level design and Gears of War inspired cover shooting that also allowed the series to chase a satisfying veneer of cinematic authenticity also came with a cost....
That’s right: the 2.5 Update will bring Thor’s love interest, Jane Foster, to the game. And that’s all we know for the moment. To find out more, you will have to tune into the next War Table Deep Dive on June 27. If you are unfamiliar with Jane, at one time she was deemed worthy enough to wield Mjolnir when Thor was unable to. During this period, she took on the mantle of Mighty Thor and joined the Avengers....
Red Barrels has dropped a new trailer for The Outlast Trials, the multiplayer spin-off coming next year. This new trailer offers little in the way of details, but it does show a horrifying cutscene. In it, we find out that subjects in the Murkoff Corporation’s Cold War-era trials undergo a procedure where their eyes get replaced with night vision goggles. They are then sent into one of the trials, which obviously involve monsters and other dangers....

The High School Years expansion pack follows the Werewolves Game Pack released in June, but is the first expansion pack to be added to The Sims 4 in nearly a year. The last expansion players could purchase is Cottage Living, which released back in July 2021.

Update 2: Publisher Nacon has issued a statement in the wake of Frogwares pulling The Sinking City off Steam with a DMCA strike. The full statement is below. Frogwares published an article on March 1st, 2021, accusing Nacon of having “pirated” the game The Sinking City; Nacon hereby wishes to set the record straight regarding these unjustified accusations. Nacon is contractually the sole exclusive distributor of The Sinking City game on Steam....
The Witcher is a whopping 13 years old, and it’s definitely more deserving of a remake than some other titles receiving them lately (looking at you, Horizon Forbidden West). This also isn’t the first time that the game has gone free to play either, but this time around, it’s going to stay free forever. If you’re yet to play the game, or simply fancy revisiting it before more news about the remake emerges, now is your chance to do so without spending a single penny....
The game is being created from the ground up using Unreal Engine 5 in alignment with how the next Witcher trilogy will be developed. As such, you can likely expect this remake to look and feel very much like the future of the IP as a whole. In terms of other info, there’s scarce amounts to go on other than the work-in-process logo you’ve already seen above. The Witcher is king of the clunkers when it comes to the series, and isn’t very easy to go back to after all these years....
Though Square Enix will retain some of its Western IP – namely Just Cause, Life Is Strange, and Outriders – it’s clear the publisher was eager to get rid of a lot of its most notable brands. And it makes sense; Square Enix has been publicly disparaging of its Western studios in recent years. It almost felt like a disappointed parent moaning about its kids to the other parents at the school gates....
Pratchett recently spoke with Eurogamer at this week’s BAFTA Games Awards, where she touched on her thoughts on working on the rebooted version of the character, as well as what she hopes to see from Lara Croft in the future. “We had a really fun time evolving her character, so I would like to see probably less father issues,” said Pratchett. “And that’s coming from me!” A fairly understandable sentiment, as it would be nice if one of the most recognisable female characters in gaming didn’t have to have her character revolve around her father’s problems....
Last year’s remaster of the classic Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 has been confirmed for release on new platforms.

You have to take down a mob of enemies in a short period of time, and it’s not so simple as it sounds. There is one easier method of meeting this requirement, but it requires some grinding and patience. Tribes of Midgard Berserker | How to unlock Berserker Getting the Berserker class requires you to kill 20 enemies in 10 seconds. It’s out of your range early in the game, so focus on leveling up existing classes and finding or crafting better gear at first....
Vehicles continue to be incredibly strong in Call of Duty: Warzone. Despite their exact, real-time location being constantly tracked on the minimap anytime they’re occupied, their health pool and easy handling makes them a menace. Players dubbed this the vehicle meta, and though Warzone developers have generally left things alone on that front, they’re now starting to make changes. A recent patch adjusted their hitboxes so drivers now have to actually commit to running someone over, rather than be gifted those kills anytime their vehicle is near a target....
The new expansion Off the Grid will be made available on Steam for Two Point Hospital March 18. With it comes three new regions and you will be researching 35 brand-new unusual illnesses such as Green Fingers and Root Snoot.

A group of UK politicians have said that there should be legislation to stop people scalping highly-sought-after items like the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X consoles. That’s according to VGC, which reports that that six Scottish National Party members of Parliament (MPs) have tabled an Early Day Motion yesterday (Monday, December 14th) asking that laws be drawn up to stop the “resale of gaming consoles and computer components at prices greatly above Manufacturer’s Recommended Retail Price....
Today, Sony has provided an extended look at the cargo plane scene, and you can view it below - if you wish to be spoiled. As you can see, as Nathan Drake, Tom Holland is pushed out of a cargo plane and is doing his best to climb back in via a set of cargo boxes tied together and hanging out of the plane. Not only does he have to contend with the wind and dangling boxes, but a bad buy is also shooting at him in the process....
This news is par for the course, obviously, but it’s still worth officially confirming, especially given that Epic Games boss Tim Sweeney himself recently tweeted about Unreal Engine 5’s multi-platform availability and support. Check out the tweet below. “The Unreal Engine 5 demo on PlayStation 5 was the culmination of years of discussions between Sony and Epic on future graphics and storage architectures,” Sweeney wrote. “The Nanite and Lumen tech powering it will be fully supported on both PS5 and Xbox Series X and will be awesome on both....
