Capcom makes the leap to $70 games with Dragon’s Dogma 2 Turns out that games are expensive. Image credit:Capcom Capcom’s upcoming and long awaited sequel Dragon’s Dogma 2 will seemingly be the developer’s first $70 title. Since the launch of the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, developers have slowly been transitioning from a $60 to a $70 price tag, often citing increased development costs as the reason behind the change.

Delicious in Dungeon episode 3 finally captured that Studio Trigger magic All you need is a dash of Trigger. At this point in time, Studio Trigger has become something of a household name for anime fans - it kicked things off with the incredibly energetic Kill la Kill, and has produced the excellent series for Netflix like Little Witch Academia and Cyberpunk: Edgerunners , and now most recently, Delicious in Dungeon ....
Despite our fears, the ‘future of gaming’ probably won’t be dominated by services like PS+ and Game Pass “The idea that subs will become dominant is unsupported by data.” Image credit:VG247/Xbox/PlayStation/Larian There’s been a lot of chatter recently with regards to subscription services and their potential to eventually become the dominant force model-wise in the games industry. However, it looks like the current data on offer doesn’t indicate that a dystopian future like that coming to fruition is anything like a foregone conclusion....
Diablo 4 error code 315306 and ‘unable to find valid license’ has an easy fix Although the early access launch of Diablo 4 has been fairly smooth, one error in particular has been driving players up the wall. Diablo 4 is here, at least if you went for the Deluxe or Ultimate Editions of the game. The early access launch of Blizzard’s premier ARPG has generally been amongst the least aggravating for players....
Diablo 4 Murmuring Obols and how to get them The old curiosity shop In Diablo 4 Murmuring Obols are a unique currency only obtainable through completing local events.

Diablo 4 review: The road to hell is paved with reinventions Diablo is back with much of the same quality we’ve been pining for. But in a world with Path of Exile and other competitors, is Blizzard still the king of hell? Blood! Loot! Numbers! Cows! Diabo is a series with a storied legacy, built on strong pillars that have held up the ARPG classic for years now. It’s a name that still holds some well-deserved clout, even if Diablo Immortal (and, to a lesser degree, Diablo 3) soured that reputation in the minds of fans....
Diablo 4’s exit dungeon animation is going back to the way it was It never made sense for Diablo 4’s exit dungeon portal animation to take longer to cast, so Blizzard is making it take as long as it used to. One particularly head-scratching change in Diablo 4 ’s very upsetting, wide-sweeping 1.1.0 patch was an increase to the cast time of the exit dungeon animation. The animation, which used to take three seconds, was a quick and easy way to leave the dungeon that saved players a lot of time they would otherwise spend running back all the way to beginning....

Image credit:VG247/Larian So, we’ve all had time to come to terms with the fact that Baldur’s Gate 3 developer Larian isn’t doing any DLC for the game, or a Baldur’s Gate 4, or anything to do with D&D in the near future , even if those things might once have been on the cards ....

Elder Scrolls 6 mentioned: Bethesda’s offering a “once-in-a-lifetime opportunity” to lend your face to an NPC that might have funny things done with their corpse You’ll be “leaving your mark on the legendary franchise” as a character who’ll probably live at the mercy of some non-Dragonborn’s terrifying whims.
