Grab 2024’s Most Ridiculous RPG While It’s On Sale

At the beginning of the year, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth launched a hell of an opening salvo. The latest installment in the long-running Like a Dragon/Yakuza series is comically full of things to do. On one hand, it’s a turn-based RPG epic, splitti...

Jeff Grubb Says Next State of Play Likely To Announce A “Less Exciting” Remaster

It's seemingly confirmed that Horizon Zero Dawn is getting a remaster, despite the fact it really doesn't need one. Sony is focusing on making the games look a bit cleaner and visually striking instead of rebooting or porting franchises that people actually care about. Although it hasn't been officially confirmed that a Horizon Zero Dawn remaster is coming, it's quite likely since the rumor has been floating around since 2022. People now believe this is happening because the supposed remastered version has been rated by the ESRB, listening to PC and PlayStation 5 as the platforms. In the latest Game […]

The Final Joker 2 Trailer Is Here

Joker 2, technically titled Joker: Folie à Deux, is just a couple of weeks away, and the final trailer has arrived to try and seal the deal for potential audience goers who are still on the fence about whether a “jukebox” musical is how they want to se...

Apple’s A18 Pro Is 13 Percent Faster Than A17 Pro In GFXBench’s Aztec Ruins Benchmark; New Milestone Is Achieved At A Worse ‘Performance Per...

The A18 Pro powering the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max had already cemented its position as Apple’s fastest smartphone silicon to date by being 18 percent faster than last year’s A17 Pro in Geekbench 6’s Metal benchmark while also trading blows with the M1 in the single-core and multi-core department. In the latest GFXBench Aztec Ruins test, the newest SoC once again reaches a new performance plateau, but a closer look at the comparison reveals that it had to operate at a higher power draw to achieve this difference, resulting in a worse ‘performance per watt’ ratio. In the […]

Every Change In Baldur’s Gate 3’s Sixth Big Patch [Updated]

After days of basically edging the community with videos of new kiss animations, Larian Studios has finally released Baldur’s Gate 3’s patch six. The roughly 21GB update brings new kisses for your lovers, quality-of-life improvements, and a slew of bug...

Baldur’s Gate 3 Patch 6 will Weigh in at 21 GB, Improve Party Management, Smooching, More

The next big update for Baldur’s Gate 3, Patch 6, is on its way and Larian is teasing some of the changes it will usher in. These include new Legendary Actions in Honour Mode, streamlined party management, the ability to prioritize your avatar as the “main speaker” so teammates won’t hog the conversation, and more. The patch will weigh in at a fairly meaty 21 GB, and will launch on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5 simultaneously (Mac users will have to wait for a bit). Here’s a rundown of what Larian has teased for the patch thus far… Releasing […]

Baldur’s Gate 3 Dominates New York Game Awards 2024 Alongside Alan Wake 2

Yesterday, the New York Videogame Critics Circle (NYVGCC) announced the winners of the 13th annual New York Game Awards in a dedicated ceremony streamed live from the SVA Theatre, with Baldur's Gate 3 once again emerging as the big winner. Larian's excellent triple-A cRPG managed to win the Game of the Year award as well as the 'Herman Melville' award for Best Writing. Baldur's Gate 3 wasn't the only game to bring two prizes home, however, as Remedy's Alan Wake 2 won the 'Statue of Liberty' award for Best World. It also brought home the 'Great White Way' award for […]

Larian Boss Explains Why He Won’t Bring His Games to Subscriptions (Whose Growth Has Flattened Out)

The makers of Baldur’s Gate 3 have made it pretty clear that the game won’t be coming to subscription services like Xbox Game Pass any time soon, saying they believe the amount they charge for the game is fair. Now in a new statement responding to Ubisoft saying we should get used to no longer owning games, Larian boss Swen Vincke has gone a step further. Vincke’s strikes an interesting position, going beyond the usual straightforward arguments about value, saying subscription services becoming dominant would reduce the vibrancy of the industry, as those who own the sub services would have […]

Baldur’s Gate 3, Hogwarts Legacy, Starfield, Lethal Company Led a Record Year for PC Gaming

2023 was a big year for gaming in general, but it seems it was a particularly strong year for PC Gaming in specific. According to a report from VG Insights, which uses data from Steam and other sources to estimate sales with a fairly high level of accuracy, the global PC gaming market grew to $9 billion in 2023, an 18 percent year-on-year increase over 2022. This followed several years of steady yet slower growth. Looking at individual games, Baldur’s Gate 3 was the easy frontrunner in terms of both units sold and revenue generated, followed by Hogwarts Legacy. In […]

A new Baldur's Gate 3 hotfix is now live, introducing a variety of tweaks and fixes that improve the experience on all platforms. Hotfix #16 kicks off the year for Larian Studios' successful role-playing game with a huge list of fixes, which include changes to cross-save functionality, which no longer syncs modded saves, and to Waypoints, the ability to access certain quest-related items even if they are in the camp chest, fixes for some texture issues and visual bugs, crashes and blockers, combat and balance tweaks and more. You can find the full list of changes here. While Larian Studios […]

Larian in Talks With Microsoft Over Xbox Baldur’s Gate 3 Players Getting Banned For Sharing Explicit Content

Baldur's Gate 3 developer Larian Studios is in talks with Microsoft over Xbox players getting banned for uploading explicit in-game content. Several days ago we reported on a post from an Xbox Baldur's Gate 3 player who seemingly got banned for one year after explicit Baldur's Gate 3 gameplay clips were automatically uploaded to Microsoft's servers. After the user was banned, he/she asked Microsoft to look into the issue, but apparently, the enforcement was "warranted". At least, that's what Microsoft support is said to have said afterward. On X, Larian's Director of Publishing, Michael Douse (@Cromwelp), has now said that […]
