At the time of release on PC in January this year, the game had a concurrent player count of 134,262; now that’s close to doubling at 231,360 - and it continues to rise. Sunbreak is a huge new expansion to the game, adding master rank hunts, a plethora of new items, and returning monsters to defeat. Watch on YouTube Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak launch trailer. The massive increase in player count further proves the popularity of the Monster Hunter series, especially on PC....

In its words: “What’s better than officially kicking off #MultiVersus Season 1? Announcing Black Adam and Stripe are also coming this season. You’re welcome.” The original story continues below.

Naughty Dog QA Corey Hong has both “QA testing and development support on environment design for unannounced multiplayer project” and “QA testing and development support + Level Point of Contact for unannounced remake project” listed on their resumé. This, fans expect, relates to both The Last of Us’ long-awaited standalone multiplayer component and a remake of the initial game. While Naughty Dog has never officially announced it is remaking The Last of Us, its existence was first reported over a year ago now....

Our best look yet at the Leon S. Kennedy-starring show, this two-minute montage has vomiting zombies, zombie rats and a hulking big thing which may be the series’ big bad. Let’s take a look: Infinite Darkness is set a few years after Resident Evil 4, where Leon is back looking after the US president (rather than his daughter) and when a new zombie outbreak is seemingly imminent. Claire Redfield is also involved, investigating what’s going on....

Maggie was, of course, confirmed as Season 12’s new hero earlier this week in her very own Stories from the Outlands animated introduction, and Respawn’s new launch trailer picks up pretty much right where that left off, with Maggie being flown into the Apex Games, as decreed during her trial. From there, it’s as chaotic as ever, with Maggie showing an unsuspecting solider what for, and, eventually, having a brief reunion with Fuse - who fans might recall was a long-time friend until a disagreement that left Fuse minus one arm....

If you want this picture though, you first need to know Ho-Oh’s location, which, in turn, will help you complete the A Slice of the Rainbow LenTalk request. The real challenge, however, is taking a four star photo of Ho-Oh for your Photodex. On this page: The first location is directly to the right of the starting point for the course - between a gap in the mountain. For the second location, you need to wait until you’ve gone down the slope near the beginning of the course to where you’ll see Tyrantrum for the first time....

The patent was published by Sony Interactive Entertainment’s Japanese division and shows a PS4-esque controller with a screen in the centre. Only the controller is part of the patent, suggesting it would be used to slot a mobile screen in the centre. According to VGC, the patent describes “a left side grip portion and a right side grip portion gripped by the left and right hands of the user” as well as “a shaft portion that can be tilted by the user, and detect the tilting direction and tilting amount of the shaft portion....

Bethesda’s space RPG will take place in The Settled Systems, an area that extends outwards from our solar system for approximately 50 light years. Around 20 years before the start of the game, two factions - the United Colonies and The Freestar Collective - engaged in a bloody colony war. Fast forward to 2330 and The Settled Systems are in an uneasy peace, but between mercenaries, space pirates, spacers, and religious zealots, there are plenty of dangerous humans out there....

Details come from VentureBeat’s Jeff Grubb on the latest episode of his video series, Game Mess, and Windows Central’s Jez Corden. According to the reports, the game is in development at Brass Lion Entertainment, a studio formed in 2019 by Manveer Heir, who worked on Mass Effect, Bryna Dabby Smith, who worked on Sleeping Dogs and Def Jam: Vendetta, and Rashad Redic, who worked on Fallout 3 and Skyrim. The Wu-Tang Clan game is supposedly an action RPG codenamed Shaolin “in partnership with Xbox”, Windows Central said....

At a Portland Timbers match, the crowd held up banners stating “From Stonewall a brick and Portland an axe” and “Respect our pride or expect our wrath”. Then a third banner arose from the crowd: Mae Borowski, the anthropomorphic cat from Night in the Woods. Watch on YouTube Eurogamer Newscast: What can Sony do to improve PlayStation Plus Premium? A video of the event went viral on Twitter and was shared by the game’s creator Scott Benson....

Last week, Ninja tweeted “I just need a break… I don’t know when I will be back, or where”, removed his profile pictures across all platforms, and changed his display names to “User Not Found”. That followed a livestream in which Ninja appeared to “rage quit” a game of Fortnite, signing off by saying: “I got to take a break from streaming, dude. I’m going to lose my fucking mind, bro… Chat, I don’t know when I’m going to be live next, but I gotta get off, man....

In reality, Nintendo took several years to hit that milestone, and in the years since has shuttered several of them. Just one new Nintendo mobile game has launched in the last two years: Pikmin Bloom, developed by Pokémon Go maker Niantic. This week, as Dragalia Lost joined Dr. Mario World and Miitomo on Nintendo’s shutdown game scrap pile, the publisher offered a brief update on the continued importance it places on its smartphone efforts....

Nintendo has slowly been dropping support for the 3DS and Wii U, and most notably will close the eShop storefronts for both on 27th March 2023. Social media logins to a Nintendo Account and the Image Share service are the next features that Nintendo is dropping support for. Currently, it’s possible to log into your Nintendo Account via a linked Twitter or Facebook account. This will no longer be possible after 25th October....

If you somehow hadn’t already heard, then avert your gaze for now, because here’s where we’ll be explaining not only how to get the centre of the galaxy but also what exactly happens when you finally make it there. So, of course, there are full spoilers ahead. If you can really call them that. Please note that our No Man’s Sky guides are in the process of being updated after the launch of No Man’s Sky BEYOND - for now, this page may still have plenty of useful info, but bear in mind it’s due a refresh!...

Just as February’s Sentinels update sought to improve ground combat, Outlaws aims to do the same for space combat. That means better ship handling, shields for enemy starships, plus visual enhancements and various specialist secondary effects for weapons. The latter for instance, might give players the ability to slow enemy engines or disable their shield systems. Additionally, combat can now move down into a planet’s atmosphere and AI pirates can even attack your settlements - and if all that sounds a little intimidating, Hello Games has introduced a new Auto-Follow mode to improve combat accessibility....

And this - this merry-go-round of the same recommendations - it started to bother me. It’s not because the books are rubbish; obviously they’re not. But they’re known. Fantasy is saturated by them. And their voices, excluding le Guin, are all quite similar. I realised I’d become a bit trapped by their influence, and I realised I wanted something new. My partner was one step ahead of me and she ordered a selection of books written in the last couple of years by female authors....

To me, the whole point of a production had been pushing for the best possible outcome. It was a prestige thing. We gave up evenings and weekends so the audiences would be wowed by our creation and give us - potentially - ovations and wonderful reviews. Things we could feel validated about, things we could boast of. But what I heard flew in the face of that and seemed to suggest it was OK not to push so hard....

Word of a delay for Hogwarts Legacy first surfaced over the weekend, when Sacred Symbol podcast host Colin Moriarty revealed he’d been “hearing behind-the-scenes that [the] game isn’t coming out this year” and that “it’s in some sort of trouble”. Publisher Warner Bros. didn’t immediately issue comment on the claims, leaving the status of Hogwarts Legacy uncertain, but a new update on the Wizarding World website - the official home of all things Harry Potter related - has effectively dismissed reports of a delay, reiterating “2022 is also the year when… Hogwarts Legacy, is set to be released”....
