Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

This morning, developer Cygames announced on Twitter that Granblue Fantasy: Relink has become a million seller eleven days after its launch. The Japanese studio also promised 'more updates' to the game are on the horizon. Granblue Fantasy: Relink is the sixth game released in 2024 to officially announce it has sold at least a million units, following Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, Persona 3 Reload, Enshrouded, Helldivers 2, and of course Palworld, which has sold more than all of those games combined. Chances are The Last of Us Part II Remastered and Tekken 8 are also close to the million […]
Granblue Fantasy Relink allows players to improve their characters via different upgrade systems, including a weapon upgrade system that requires considerable rupies and materials investment. While you can get a few Fortitude Crystals to upgrade these weapons by simply playing the game, you will eventually be forced to farm them the moment you get deeper into the endgame. How to Farm Fortitude Crystals in Grablue Fantasy Relink Much like for Mastery Points and Experience Points, grinding for Fortitude Crystals before reaching the endgame is somewhat pointless. Even at Hard difficulty, the main story campaign is not so difficult that you […]
With over a dozen characters, Granblue Fantasy Relink can quickly become a very grindy game, especially if you like using multiple characters and want to keep their power level, gear, and Masteries in line with those of your stronger characters. Thankfully, the endgame provides plenty of opportunities for farming. How to Farm Mastery Points in Granblue Fantasy Relink Farming Mastery Points, much like farming experience points, should only be done after completing the main campaign. While it can be tempting to complete some quests over and over to obtain the Mastery Points required to unlock nodes on the Masteries of […]
One of the features that set Granblue Fantasy Relink apart from other action role-playing games is its massive character roster. Being able to play as so many different characters makes the game extremely engaging, but comes at a cost, as you may have to manage a lot of them if you like playing as more than just a few. How to Level Up Quickly in Granblue Fantasy Relink Leveling up so many different playable characters with unique movesets and skills can be very time-consuming, so you will want to optimize your grinding as much as possible. For starters, you shouldn't […]
In case you haven’t heard, Persona 3 Reload is out, and it’s awfully darn good. Whether you’re a longtime series die-hard or just hopped on the bandwagon after Persona 5, there’s a lot to sink your teeth into here. But not every game left us feeling qu...
Before multiple friends of mine went out of their way to sing the praises of Granblue Fantasy: Relink to me, I had no interest in the RPG. But with such energetic recommendations, I couldn’t ignore the new title from developer Cygames, set to release o...
Granblue Fantasy Relink is one of those games that has caught my eye ever since it was announced many years ago. Unfortunately, this game encountered several hurdles throughout its development. It was originally a collaboration between Cygames and PlatinumGames, but over time, suffered multiple delays and even lost the latter company's support. At long last, we have borne witness to the product of Cygames' efforts. On a base level, I think this RPG is one of the best games I've played. However, it also turned out to be completely different from what I expected. While that's not entirely a bad […]
Keeping track of all the latest video games coming out is an increasingly complex task, what with multiple PC storefronts, Xbox One, PS4, Switch, mobile, and more to keep track of, but don’t worry, I’m here to help. Every month I'll be running down the games you need to be keeping an eye on, from the big triple-A headliners, to the intriguing indies you might overlook. January may have been a bit slow, but 2024 is already kicking into high gear in February, with a number of heavy hitters including Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Helldivers 2, and the divisive duo […]
The Granblue Fantasy: Relink PC system requirements have been revealed, and they may be a little higher than expected for a cross-generation title also launching on PlayStation 4. According to the system requirements revealed on the game's Steam Store page, an RTX 2080 or RX 6700 XT GPU is recommended to achieve 1080p resolution and 60 frames per second gameplay at ultra settings, which sounds a little overkill given the game's visuals, although it is somewhat expected, as the PlayStation 5 version runs at 1080p, 60 FPS in Performance Mode. Granblue Fantasy: Relink PC System Requirements MINIMUM: OS: Windows® 10 (64-bit […]
A Granblue Fantasy: Relink playable demo is going to be released soon on PlayStation consoles, allowing players to finally get a taste of the action role-playing game by Cygames launching in less than a month. The playable demo, which won't be released on Steam, will become available tomorrow, January 12th, at midnight local time. As such, if you have a PlayStation Network from regions when it is already January 12th, you can download the demo right now.

During this year's Granblue Fest, Japanese game developer Cygames announced that a free demo of Granblue Fantasy: Relink would be released next month on PlayStation and PlayStation 5 ahead of the scheduled global release date of February 1st, 2024. Featured content includes a small chunk of the main story, eleven playable characters, and even playable online quests in cooperative multiplayer. Moreover, completing story and quest content will provide rewards for the full game. Unfortunately, it seems like PC users are left out of the possibility of going hands-on with this demo, at least for the time being. It's an unfortunate […]
