Blizzard has spilled all of the beans on Diablo 4’s next big patch, version 2.0. The major update arrives alongside the launch of the Vessel of Hatred expansion in October, but PC players can get their hands on it next week as part of the Public Test Realm (PTR).Patch 2.0 brings massive fundamental changes to the structure of Diablo 4, and the vast majority of changes will be available to all players, regardless of whether or not they own Vessel of Hatred.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings The big news coming out of last night’s Campfire Chat is that the level cap is being decreased to 60 from 100, as players managed to correctly guess. Blizzard said that it’s by no means an attempt to make the levelling process slower, only that it…

Warning, spoilers for Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree lie ahead.Hello. There’s a fresh patch just dropped for Elden Ring, and it’s full of balancing changes that’ll no doubt effect your highly sophisticated build that relies on waiting for the enemy to attack, then dodging and shouting ‘Boo!’ at the top of your lungs. The big headliner? Some tweaks to Shadow of the Erdtree’s big final boss that look like they’ll make him easier to beat.Look, before you start drafting an angry letter to FromSoft about the need to stick to its principles of making things tougher than a very cheap steak, maybe take a look through the changes first, yeah?To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings As detailed in the notes for Elden Ring version 1.14, your friend and mine Promis…

Noah Hawley made an appearance at the Emmys over the weekend where he teased just how scary his Alien: Earth series is going to be.On Earth, everybody can hear you scream, which is something Hawley clearly thinks you’ll be doing a lot of whenever Alien: Earth drops next year. The Fargo series and Legion creator spoke with Deadline at the Emmys, where he didn’t share any concrete details about the upcoming horror show, but did set some general expectations for it. “There’s something about seeing a Xenomorph in the wilds of Earth with your own eyes,” Hawley said. “That is truly chilling to think of it moving here among us, and so I can’t tell you under what circumstances you’ll see that, but you’ll see it – and you’re going to lock your door that night.”To see t…

Nintendo has filed a lawsuit against Pocketpair over Palworld, but one expert isn’t sure the Mario maker has enough to win.Palworld has been criticised for its very Pokemon-like designs since before it even came out, which honestly, is kind of fair. There are a lot of designs which are incredibly dubious, but none that on the outset seem to cross any copyright boundaries. Potentially Nintendo ended up feeling this way too, as the company has filed a lawsuit against Pocketpair, but over patents specifically, not any of Palworld’s Pal designs. With the lawsuit only just having been filed, it’ll take a while for the results of it to become clear, but Florian Mueller, a former Blizzard consultant, and writer of the now defunct FOSS Patents blog, has shared his thoughts on the “tricky” situatio…

That PS5 Pro reveal wasn’t great, and the following online buzz suggested the average PlayStation consumer didn’t care much, yet here we are. The (admittedly really cool) PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary bundle has sold out within seconds.At least in the United Kingdom, the PlayStation 5 Pro 30th Anniversary bundle went live around 10AM today, priced at £960, and vanished in just a few seconds.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings While we don’t exactly know how much stock was available to purchase here in the region, we do know that only 12,300 of the PlayStation 5 Pro 30th Anniversary editions were to be made available worldwide, so natually this means that scalpers are already busy doing their thing, that being trying to hawk it for sums like £5,…

EA Sports FC 25’s second title update is here, but it’s only released on PC to start off with, with cross-play between that platform and consoles now being on hold until Xbox and PlayStation folks get it too.So, if you were hoping to get into a match with your mate who’s on the opposite side of the fence tonight, and have them carve up your defense by unleashing the bizarrely world-class pace and dribbling skills of some 62 overall right back, it looks like you’ll have to wait.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings “Please note that once this TU is released, cross-play on PC will be unavailable until this TU comes to other platforms in the near future”, EA writes in the notes for title update number two, which is now available to download on PC.In case y…

In a now deleted series of posts on Bluesky, Uzumaki producer Jason Demarco shared a bit of insight into what went wrong with the series.When it was first announced earlier this year that the anime adaptation of the classic Junji Ito horror manga Uzumaki would finally be releasing this year, fans were obviously incredibly excited, myself included in that. The first episode started really strong too, with this striking 3D look that helped you ignore how fast paced it was. But then… the second episode aired. And it was really, really not very good. This came as a bit of a surprise considering none of this was shown in the trailers, but then again, none of this was in the trailers – go back and you’ll see pretty much everything was from the first episode, all the good bits anyway.To se…

Helldivers 2’s latest update, Patch 01.001.104, is finally here, wrapping up Arrowhead’s 60 day plan to improive the game with a bunch more balancing and tweaks, with the biggest headline looking to be an effort to make the Automatons more attractive opponents for divers who usually stick to bug swatting.Yep, following a slight delay because the publisher hadn’t looked at a calandar when it set in motion its plans to revamp the game following the negative reception that surrounded it following the arrival of the Escalation of Freedom update, the big patch that closes out those plans has arrived.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings As detailed in the characteristically beefy patch notes for Patch 01.001.104, to brings pretty huge host of tweaks, buildin…

VariousThere are so many ways to be a Dungeons & Dragons fan these days. The tabletop RPG mainstay has been synonymous with pen-and-paper adventuring for 50 years now, and 2024 marks a major reworking of its core rulebooks to make the game more approachable. Anyone who’s played even just a couple of sessions knows how easy it can be to covet a friend’s set of custom dice, appreciate the care a Dungeon Master has taken in setting the right ambience for a crafted campaign, or even obsess over their choice of pen and notebook — after all, it’s what you’ll be spending a large chunk of time staring into as you ponder your character’s next heroic action.But what’s amazing is that you can be a huge D&D fan without ever touching a character sheet. D&D and the Forgotten R…
