     GTA Online weekly update celebrates Independence Day

There's a new GTA Online weekly update, and if you're looking to jump into the open-world game's latest offerings then we've got everything you need to know ahead of time. Rockstar's official patch notes usually go live a little after the update's release, but players are already digging in and the important details are all right here. The newest update is themed around the Independence Day celebrations taking place in the United States on July 4.

For the week of June 30 - July 6, you can get yourself a free Sovereign bike and patriot parachute to celebrate in true American fashion. There's also a whole raft of purchasable USA-themed goodies on half-price sale, including a stars and stripes firework launcher with red, white, and blue fireworks, as well as similarly styled clothing, haircuts, masks, motorcycle liveries, weapon skins, and facepaint. In addition, the all-American Vapid Liberator, a monster truck decked out in a full Star-Spangled Banner paint job complete with flags, is also 50% off.

Events-wise, you can earn triple the usual in-game cash rewards on Independence Day land races - as well as triple cash and reputation payouts on business battles and the American football inspired Running Back Remix adversary mode. There's also double the normal cash and reputation available when completing missions for hacker and information specialist Lester Crest.

     The Forest cheats and console commands

The Forest cheats and console commands are the best and simplest way to make your life of survival from the creepy cannibals a little easier. Compared to the best The Forest mods, which have some wild and wacky possibilities like altering the tides and respawning trees, these console commands are more straightforward.

While you need to take some steps to enable The Forest cheats and console commands, which we've outlined at the bottom of this guide, once you know how to do it everything is quite simple. You can skip the initial plane crash sequence, teleport to any coordinates of your choosing, kill animals at the push of a button, and even enable god mode. Here's everything you need to know about The Forest cheats and console commands.

It wasn't until I played a hands-on preview of Cult Of The Lamb this weekend that I realised how much ovine imagery is knocking around Christianity. All them lambs being sacrificed in the Old Testament, shepherds, flocks, the lion and the lamb. In Cult Of The Lamb, which is sort of a dungeon-crawling roguelite with a colony sim bolted on, you are a literal rather than metaphorical lamb. Although possibly also a metaphorical lamb. Point is, the game makes great hay from the juxtaposition of cute fluffy animals and a violent cult.

Steam Deck production might be ramping up again but it turns out more recent orders could be something of a lucky dip, SSD-wise. Valve have quietly updated their Steam Deck tech specs page with a note that the NVMe SSDs in "some" 256GB and 512GB models might now use the PCIe Gen 3.0 x2 interface, meaning the drive has half the usual bandwidth of the Gen 3.0 x 4 SSDs that previously featured as standard.

As first spotted by German site HardwareLuxx, there's no indication as to why Valve made this change, and it doesn't look like anyone with an outstanding Steam Deck order will know which SSD bandwidth they'll get in advance. However, Valve's added note explains that "In our testing, we did not see any impact to gaming performance between x2 and x4."

fate/grand order kyokutei bakin nanmei yumihari hakkenden

Yet another Japanese novelist, Kyokutei Bakin, has debuted as a Servant in Fate/Grand Order. Kyokutei Bakin, or Takizawa Bakin, appears as an SSR Rider Servant during the game's new event, Nanmei Yumihari Hakkenden. Nanmei Yumihari Hakkenden will run on the Japanese Fate/Grand Order server from June 29 to July 20, 2022.

The other Servants that have a rate-up on the current Kyokutei Bakin banner are Okada Izo and the Avenger of Shinjuku. In history, the real-life Kyokutei Bakin was a writer from the 19th century, and he was prominent for his historical and moral novels. He pioneered the genre of historical romance in Japan.

In Fate/Grand Order, Kyokutei Bakin has a single-target Arts Noble Phantasm, and her skills mainly focus on buffing her card performance. She can also charge her own NP gauge. You can watch her Noble Phantasm, Nanso Satomi Hakkenden: The Eight Dog Chronicles, here:

As for the event itself, Nanmei Yumihari Hakkenden starts with a puppy appearing in Chaldea. Kyokutei Bakin appears, claiming to be the puppy's owner. As Chaldea investigates Kyokutei Bakin, an incredibly destructive arrow hits the building. Before a second arrow can hit, Chaldea must investigate the mysterious Singularity from which the arrow originated. The gameplay will feature an expedition system in which you send out dogs to gather resources. As you play through the story, you can unlock more areas.

Fate/Grand Order is readily available worldwide on mobile devices. The Nanmei Yumihari Hakkenden event, as well as the Kyokutei Bakin banner, are only on the Japanese server. The English server previously added the SERAPH event to the game's Main Interlude.

The post Novelist Kyokutei Bakin Appears as a Rider in Fate/Grand Order appeared first on Siliconera.
