     Terraria x Don't Starve crossover hits next week

The much-teased Terraria x Don't Starve crossover has finally had a release date confirmed, and it'll be happening across both games this week on November 18. It appears like Terraria and Don't Starve Together, specifically, will be trading bosses and items when the crossover hits on Thursday.

It previously seemed like developer Re-Logic was done adding things to Terraria, with the Journey's Actual End update making that pretty clear. However, since last month developers Re-Logic and Don't Starve developer Klei had been teasing some sort of crossover, with boss characters from both games like the Deerclops and the Eye of Cthulhu in particular seemingly making the jump.

Now both developers have finally announced a release date for the crossover, and it'll all go down on November 18 - whatever it really is, since we just don't know. There's also a teaser poster which you can see below, showing Don't Starve's Wilson wielding Terraria's Light Bane's Sword and Shadow Armour amidst many enemies and weapons from both game series.

     One of the best 3D platformers on PC may be getting a sequel

A Hat In Time released back in 2017 as an indie love-letter to N64/GameCube-era 3D platformers such as Super Mario Sunshine and Banjo-Kazooie, and is still one of the best platform games available on PC four years later. Now it's looking like its developer is finally teasing A Hat In Time 2 for a reveal this Tuesday.

Apart from a few console re-releases, there hasn't been a significant update for A Hat In Time since the game's second major DLC expansion in 2019. It's already had co-op and online play added, as well as support for PS5 and Xbox Series X.

So now developer Gears For Breakfast is teasing a big mysterious announcement for Tuesday, November 16 at 6 PM BST/10 AM PST/1 PM EST, which it will reveal on a Twitch stream - and many fans are hoping for a sequel announcement at last. The tease was accompanied by a parody of a famous Nintendo 64 ad showing the next level of games at the time, including Super Mario 64.

     Valve is making TF2 modding easier by waiving a $50K fee

The Team Fortress 2 modding scene is about to get a little easier, it seems, as Valve has apparently struck a deal with Microsoft to waive the $50,000 fee for the Havok physics engine for future mods - and not just TF2 either as this deal apparently covers all Valve games, including possibly Half-Life: Alyx.

In the same week where Rockstar and Take-Two are under fire for the GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition fiasco - which they hit numerous mods and modding sites with takedown requests to build - Valve Software instead seems to be doing something nice for the modding community by removing a hefty physics engine licence cost.

As originally posted by @TF2CCWiki on Twitter, they asked Valve support about getting an asset licence for the Havok physics engine - which costs $50,000 usually for any Valve-supported paid mods on Steam - and was told that Valve has "reached an agreement with Microsoft to have Havok fees waived for future mods of Valve games", which is great news for the modding community.

     Shin Megami Tensei V might be coming to PC

It's looking very possible there may be a Shin Megami Tensei V PC release, despite most of the SMT series and Persona spin-offs having skipped PC. This is according to a listing datamined from the game's files, meaning that the current Switch-exclusive SMT5 could join the other great JRPGs on PC.

Shin Megami Tensei 3: Nocturne actually came out on Steam earlier this year, and despite its age - it originally came out on PS2 and is almost twenty years old - it's pretty well regarded and is currently sitting on a "very positive" rating. Shin Megami Tensei IV was exclusive to the Nintendo 3DS so that isn't getting ported anytime soon, but Shin Megami Tensei V came out on Nintendo Switch on Friday, November 12.

Dataminers dug into the Switch game's files and discovered details of "target platforms", which are named as Switch, PS4, and Windows PC. There are also suggestions of various graphics settings that can be changed - such as resolution, post-processing, shadow quality, and texture quality - which you'd only find in a PC version.

     War is easier now in New World

You'll soon be able to declare war more easily in New World, which will come as a big relief to anyone getting bored of this peacetime nonsense. Some companies in the MMO have found themselves unable to declare war on others, but Amazon is hopeful this issue is fixed now - although there are still other war-related matters to be dealt with.

Recently, players as part of companies in New World had discovered that they were seemingly unable to declare war on various territories, despite believing they were above the required 10% threshold for throwing the territory into conflict - which is currently hard to track so players often weren't sure.

Well, Amazon Game Studios reports in its latest dev blog that it believes it has "resolved most cases of this" - particularly in regards to fixing a bug in a recent update where "many players from a faction all turned in PvP missions at the same time" meant that the influence from these quests wasn't being counted properly. The team asks players to report if it's still going on, however.

     Back 4 Blood is

As anyone who's played it knows, Back 4 Blood can be an incredibly tough game - far more so than the game it's a spiritual successor to, Left 4 Dead. The team at Turtle Rock has admitted in a stream that Back 4 Blood is currently "far more difficult than intended" but it is "actively working on a solution" - particularly to the Specials spawning problem.

One of the biggest problems players are finding is that Special Ridden - the tougher mutated enemies - are spawning in too large a number, which we even noted in our review and makes parts of Back 4 Blood far too tougher.

Earlier this week, Turtle Rock deployed a patch specifically to counter this problem but now has admitted that it "spoke too soon" in suggesting it was fixed as it has now "identified another major cause of the unintended increased difficulty" and is working on fixing it. Other problems addressed on the stream include Trauma damage being "dealt out way too quickly", which should be fixed now, and speedrunning.
