Hogwarts Legacy is a new wizarding world story set around 100 years before Harry Potter's school days. Portkey Games and Avalanche Software say that you'll be able to create your own Hogwarts student, explore an open world, and uncover secrets about ancient magic that may affect the future of the wizarding world. … [Read more...] about Hogwarts Legacy—everything we know so far about the wizarding RPG

Now more than ever, Knights of the Old Republic is a refreshing take on Star Wars
However, despite the chronological gulf, KOTOR still has plenty to scratch any Star Wars itch you might develop. If anything, BioWare made its take on the universe a little too similar to classic Star Wars—especially considering the amount of time that's supposed to have passed between this game and the original trilogy. But I'll let it slide, because the established language of Star Wars—blasters, speeders, astromech droids, cocky smugglers, pious Jedi, and so on—lays a familiar foundation to tell this new story on. BioWare could have created something completely different and alien, and I'm sure they would have done a great job of it, but it might not have felt very Star Wars. … [Read more...] about Now more than ever, Knights of the Old Republic is a refreshing take on Star Wars
Best Warzone loadouts and top class setups
Perk 3 has a slightly lower power level so it’s a bit less down to the meta as to which one you choose. I personally prefer Amped, because when using two primary weapons like a Sniper and Assault Rifle it’s hugely beneficial to be able to switch between the two guns quickly. It’s saved me from death multiple times. Alternatively, Battle Hardened is also a nice one – it minimises the impact of enemy flashbangs and stunners, as well as stopping niche situations like gas grenades and snapshot grenades. Finally, Tracker can be a really strong option, especially late in the game, when you’re trying to hunt down the last of your foes to clinch that Warzone Victory. … [Read more...] about Best Warzone loadouts and top class setups
The state of Magic: The Gathering Arena in 2021
But as lockdown continues in many parts of the world and the future of public, in-person events remains foggy, it's easy to wonder why this growing online community isn't receiving more attention. Arena contains the potential to be more than a neat alternative to tabletop play in the post-COVID Magic ecosystem. The players certainly want it, but Wizards of the Coast seems content to leave them in the sideboard. … [Read more...] about The state of Magic: The Gathering Arena in 2021
Cold War Zombies: Best loadout, weapons and field upgrades
Optic: None Muzzle: Flash Cone 12 Ga Barrel: 24.8” Task Force Body: Ember Sighting Point (or Mounted Flashlight) Magazine: Stanag 12 Rnd Tube Handle: None Stock: Marathon Stock So, we’re going with a maximised salvage and equipment drop rate in this loadout, which is massively beneficial throughout the game but especially in later rounds. The more salvage you get, the easier it is to armour up, upgrade your gun rarity, and buy killstreaks. Basically, you want as much gear as possible, and the bonuses from other attachments don’t make as much of a difference. That’s why the flashlight is here, as well as the 12-round Tube magazine to minimise reload requirements. We want speed too, so our Marathon Stock will stack really well with things like Stamin-Up to get us moving around the map faster. … [Read more...] about Cold War Zombies: Best loadout, weapons and field upgrades
