Elden Ring’s Malenia looks even scarier in an impressive Sekiro mod You’ll probably want to learn how to block. If you’ve ever thought about what it might be like to fight Malenia from Elden Ring with Sekiro’s combat system, there’s a mod that lets you do just that. You know her, you hate her, it’s none other than Malenia, Blade of Miquella. She’s easily one of the toughest bosses that FromSoftware has ever made, in no small part because of her wide range of fast paced moves, as well as how many she has of them....

Escape from Tarkov devs won’t call its controversial PvE mode DLC, but it is making it free for players who own a now delisted edition of the game Another strange choice on top of an already odd one, but a win’s a win I suppose?

Excited about the Days Gone PS5 remaster, but only own the PS4 version through PS Plus? You’re in for some bad news Maybe PS Plus isn’t all it’s cut out to be. Sony announced that a PS5 remaster is on the way for Days Gone last week, only it comes with a bit of a snag for those that own it through PS Plus. At some point along the way, I couldn’t tell you when because Sony gives out free games literally every month with PS Plus, Days Gone was one of the monthly titles, so anyone that claimed it at the time will now have it in their library....

Fashion Dreamer - as fun as it can be - has nothing on the 3DS’ Style Savvy Dishing out fashion advice galore is great in Fashion Dreamer, but it’s missing the charm and challenge that the Style Savvy series provided. Image credit:VG247/Marvelous AQL Those who love fashion simulation games as much as I do will likely remember a series for the Nintendo and 3DS known as Style Savvy (also known as Style Boutique and Girls Mode)....

Final Fantasy 1-6 Pixel Remaster console creeps closer to definitive status, despite some small frustrations The Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters are notably improved over the PC versions, even if they are still carrying a bit of baggage. After months of fans pleading with Square Enix to do so on social media, the Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters are finally hitting consoles - available this week for PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch. And intriguingly, these aren’t functionally the same versions as debuted on PC and mobile....

Final Fantasy 7 Remake part 3 might be out sooner than you’d think If all goes to plan you won’t be waiting as long as you did for Remake or Rebirth. Image credit:Square Enix Square Enix’s Final Fantasy 7 Remake project has one more entry on the way, and it might not take as long to make as you might think. These days, we’re lucky if we get a sequel to a game once every four or five years, with development times and budgets ballooning in recent years....

Game Boy games are mostly awful, but GBA on Switch Online Expansion Pack is huge Game Boy Advance was a golden age of handheld gaming, if you could see the screen. The Game Boy was incredible. It was a piece of gaming hardware that was essentially sent to the ‘80s from the future. To have video games of the quality they are on the Game Boy, even with its lack of colour, felt like some Tomorrow’s World stuff back when I was a small child....

Games you forgot came out in 2023 Yes, all of those games did come out in 2023. No, we don’t believe you when you say you remember that they all did. Image credit:VG247 2023 is almost over, and there’s certainly an argument to be made that it may be one of, if not the best year in video games. That’s based on the number of quality games released over the last 12 months, of course, not the record-breaking number of layoffs - another area where it might also be a “winner....

Genshin Impact Spring of the First Dewdrop locations and farming tips Fresh ocean spring Genshin Impact Spring of the First Dewdrop locations are easy to miss if you’ve never explored one specific area of Fontaine. The local specialty only bubbles up near the Sealed Ruined Tower, and until Navia sailed onto the scene, there wasn’t really a reason to go looking for them. Having them all in one place makes Spring of th First Dewdrop farming easier to deal with, though the lack of nearby waypoints does mean it takes a bit longer to reach the areas you need to find....

Image credit:HBO Oh dear, another Game of Thrones spin-off is no longer in development at HBO, this time the one set to focus on Jon Snow.
