Hades 2 weapons: How to unlock the best weapons
Weapons are the essential tools for your rampage through Hades 2’s underworld in search of the Titan of Time. Each one can be unlocked fairly quickly and will give you an edge over some of the monsters and bosses you’ll find as you progress. Through weapon aspects (which we’ll cover in a future guide), you…

Hades 2 is absolutely worth playing in early access right now
After a short testing period a couple weeks ago, Hades 2 has officially entered early access on Steam and the Epic Games Store. It’s been almost four years since Supergiant released what is one of the best action RPGs out there, and now we get to watch it develop a worthy sequel. Hades 2 is…

Seekers of Skyveil convinced me the extraction genre isn’t just for shooters anymore
I feel for the folks at Elodie Games who have to try to describe succinctly what’s going on in Seekers of Skyveil, the California-based developer’s first game. At first glance, it looks like a MOBA, specifically League of Legends, which a few of the developers have previously worked on: heroes battle on isometric plains and…

Blizzard plans to make Diablo 4 boss farming better for solo players

The most powerful items in Diablo 4 drop off of its endgame bosses. But ever since those bosses were introduced in season 2, solo players have had to put in way more effort than those playing in a group to access them. That’s going to change soon, associate game director Joe Piepiora told PC Gamer…

Blizzard ‘learned a lot of lessons’ from having to emergency fix Diablo 4 season 3’s vault dungeons, but says they’d need more work before bringing them back permanently
In January, Blizzard had to drop a late-night emergency patch to turn Diablo 4 season 3 around. Within a day of launch, players decided the robot spider companion was useless and that dodging traps in the new vault dungeons wasn’t worth the headache. Blizzard quickly boosted the strength of the pet and streamlined vaults, making…

Lords of the Fallen now has one of those masochistic enemy randomizer modes for action RPG fans looking for punishment
Lords of the Fallen’s final update, version 1.5, gives it what every good action RPG must have: a randomizer mode for the sickos who thrive in the chaos of unpredictable enemies and loot. A list of new options to modify the normal structure of the game will now be available when you’ve completed it. You…

Blizzard admits WoW is rough for new players and plans to fix that: ‘We know that we have a lot of work to do’
If I didn’t have years of prior experience playing World of Warcraft, I imagine my first hour in The War Within alpha would’ve gone much worse. WoW immediately buries you in buckets of spells and items and quests that even had me gasping for air trying to make sense of it all. The new and…
