EVERSPACE 2 developer ROCKFISH Games, being headquartered in Hamburg, couldn't very well pass up on the Cologne-based Gamescom, especially since they've got the Titans DLC coming up soon. Due to launch on September 16 across all platforms (PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X) for a price tag of $15, this is the first story DLC for the space combat game that was fully released in 2023. I caught up with ROCKFISH Games CEO and Co-Founder Michael Schade and Communications Manager Lee Guille to learn more about EVERSPACE 2: Titans and to discuss various aspects of the industry, from their […]
The Witcher 4, also known as the "Polaris" project, will be the first entry in the series to be powered by the Unreal Engine 5. While this was definitely disappointing to learn for a lot of fans due to the known stuttering issues of the engine, the move could lead to some improvements that could benefit all of the games powered by the ending. According to the tech experts at Digital Foundry, if there is one development team that could solve the stuttering issues plaguing the engine, it is CD Projekt Red. Also, the team is well aware of them, […]

The Witcher 3 PC players unite as modder 'Freak' has released an interesting new mod that restores the reputation concept in The Witcher 3. Developer CD Projekt Red cut the reputation concept from the game when it was released back in 2015, but this new mod aims to restore that feature. When using the mod, player choices and behavior correspond to reputation points in different regions. The mod includes five reputation levels, including hated, disliked, neutral, liked, and respected. Each level corresponds to Geralt's reputation points range in the region. According to the modder, the different reputation levels will influence […]
Modders of The Witcher 3 have only had official tools from developer CD Projekt Red for two months, but they’ve already made great use of them. One ambitious modder was able to recreate some of the first game’s map with the new tools only a day after t...
A new Cyberpunk 2077 mod released online today introduces a fix for a major path tracing issue that impacts visuals considerably while also introducing some new HD textures. The Preem Fixes mod, which can be downloaded from Nexus Mods, addresses the stationary shadow mesh seen phasing through cloth, an issue that has been in the game since its implementation of path tracing but has yet to be fixed. The fix, however, renders cloth flat, and it doesn't interact with light as it should. In addition, a second version of the mod also introduces new HD textures for cloth, which look […]
This morning, modder MerseyRockoff published a new, interesting The Witcher 3 mod on Nexus. The mod restores a series of boat races cut from the final game, leveraging the recent release of the REDKit tool made by CD Projekt RED. The modder explained: With the release of REDkit, 100% of the boat race script was found in the game files, which allowed for the restoration process to begin. Only the text and audio files were found; the rest were created from scratch based on CDPR's writing and careful examination of the files. This means that all the conversations, characters, notices, […]

The new episode of the AnsweRED podcast mainly focuses on a chat with the developers leading the work on Project Orion, the Cyberpunk 2077 sequel, and what the newly built Boston studio can bring to the game. Acting Executive Producer Dan Hernberg explained: I think Cyberpunk is obviously a uniquely American story. It's got a lot of like punk energy, and it was written by an American, so it just seems right to do it in America. Associate Game Director Paweł Sasko also shared a specific example: Cyberpunk 2077, which was made in Poland, had the wrong manhole covers for a […]
German YouTube channel 'Digital Dreams' has released a new Cyberpunk 2077 showcase, aiming to imitate real life. We've covered plenty of graphical showcases for CDPR's hit title, including several from Digital Dreams. Last year, we covered a showcase of the game running in 4K resolution with more than 100 mods, and today we wanted to share an impressive showcase of the game running in 8K resolution with over 300 mods on an NVIDIA RTX 4090. For the video, the content creator has used his own custom ReShade preset alongside an ultra path tracing mod as well as a real weather […]
Files for a canceled Cyberpunk 2077 DLC expansion surfaced online, providing new information on the expansion and new lore that could hint at some of the events that will happen in the second entry in the series. The files, as reported on the Gaming Leaks and Rumors subreddit, confirm how the expansion was supposed to take place during a new corporate war, an event that a lot of in-game text suggested was going to happen at some point, and that the moon map would have been around six square kilometers big (for reference, Night City is around 24 square kilometers […]

Samsung has been reported on multiple occasions to introduce a design change with the Galaxy S25 Ultra launch, with the flagship said to feature rounded corners instead of sharp ones, resembling the company’s Galaxy Note 7. However, it is one thing to check out an artist’s impression of the smartphone and another to view an actual render, and we are happy to mention that an official image has come out, but there is a catch. The notable leakster responsible for showcasing the Galaxy S25 Ultra to his fans has blurred it out unless his financial target is met. Donation goal from […]
