Kotaku Monday, July 4, 2022 7:00 AM  The Polium One is the answer to a question no one has ever, nor will ever, ask. It is a "next-gen console for web3 gaming." Which is to say, a render on a website for a fictional machine that I believe will absolutely will never get made. I dare them to prove me wrong. |
PCGamesN Monday, July 4, 2022 9:57 AM  AMD Ryzen 7000 CPUs are on the horizon, but Zen 3 might be here to stay for a little longer. Zen 4 should eventually supersede the company's current-gen offering, but rumours point toward new Zen 3D chips that cater to budget gaming PC builds. According to reliable hardware leaker Greymon55, "several new" AMD Zen 3 processors are on the cards, and we'll apparently hear more about the lineup next month. So far, AMD has only released one 8-core Zen3D SKU, but we'll potentially see team red expand its AM4 portfolio with cheap and cheerful gaming CPUs that pack a punch. Speaking of AM4, there's seemingly also still life left in AMD's current-gen platform, as Greymon55 claims we'll see "low-end AMD products" in the future. In other words, you might not have to upgrade to the best motherboard to jump on the Zen 4 bandwagon, as budget chips could still boast older socket compatibility. Naturally, this means some next-gen options may still support DDR4, which suggests they could use a different memory controller.

PCGamesN Monday, July 4, 2022 8:06 AM  Cuphead speedruns are extremely difficult. The platforms are tricky, the bosses vicious, and the likelihood of dying, and losing precious seconds, very high. And do you know what else is very high? Mountains. So how about we combine the metaphorical steep challenge of speedrunning Cuphead with the literal steepness of an actual mountain?

PCGamesN Monday, July 4, 2022 7:36 AM  After months of the community asking for character outfits, Genshin Impact gives players the chance to change their character's outfits using the skins system. This system was introduced in the Genshin Impact 1.6 update, but the developers have been slow to give every character an outfit. One of the big questions surrounding the Genshin Impact outfits was how skins were planned to be distributed. As Genshin Impact locks characters behind gacha mechanics, players were worried that skins may be sold using the same system. There are two methods to unlock events: purchase the skin for 1680 Genesis Crystals, or complete a specific event. If you happen to miss the event, the skin will make its way to the Character Outfit Shop in the future. Here are all of the Genshin Impact outfits so far.

PCGamesN Monday, July 4, 2022 7:42 AM  The Oculus Quest 2 might be Meta's best VR headset, but the social media giant is reported "laser focussed" on Project Cambria - a mixed reality platform that's set to arrive this year. While the Quest 2 has proven itself as a gaming device, the company hopes to properly establish itself within the metaverse using the new pair of standalone goggles, which could in turn help it face fierce financial headwinds. According to an internal "investment priorities" memo obtained by Reuters, Project Cambria will help drive the firm's key metaverse priorities, namely Avatars and Horizon Worlds. Meta's Chief product officer Chris Cox also says the launch of Cambria will help inaugurate a "prosumer/industrial-grade mixed reality product line," something that suggests more devices are on the cards. The memo may cover VR ambitions, but the Oculus Quest 2 isn't included on the priority list. While you can create an Avatar and download Horizon Worlds on Quest 2 for free, it looks like Project Cambria will be pushed as the company's shining metaverse star later this year.

PCGamesN Monday, July 4, 2022 6:02 AM  Want to know more about the upcoming Genshin Impact events? A new version of Genshin Impact arrives every six weeks, complete with new characters, quests, and events. It's difficult to keep track of which events are currently running and if there are any new ones coming soon, so here's a schedule for all current and upcoming Genshin Impact events. There are usually a number of Genshin Impact events running simultaneously, and they aren't just in-game events. When a new Genshin Impact character joins the game, the devs launch a web event at the same time - players learn about the latest characters through an interactive story told through a web browser. The rewards for completing different events range from in-game items like primogems and mora, to real life prizes like mouse mats and plushies. Just like the Genshin Impact banners, most events are only available for a limited time, so it's worth participating as soon as you can. New events are usually added to Genshin Impact after an update, but it's worth keeping an eye out on this page as the devs do like to surprise the community.

PCGamesN Monday, July 4, 2022 5:59 AM  Another potential Nvidia RTX 4000 specs update has arrived, and the RTX 4090 is allegedly up to 60% faster than the RTX 3090 in terms of base clock speeds. The GPU giant's next best graphics card also reportedly packs a 50% higher boost clock, while the RTX 4080 could still wield GDDR6X memory after all. RELATED LINKS: RTX 4000 - everything we know, GeForce Now RTX 3080 review, Best graphics card |
PCGamesN Monday, July 4, 2022 6:06 AM  The Nvidia RTX 4090 - which might actually release as the RTX 5090 - looks to be a strong best graphics card contender, and it could shake up the gaming PC scene as we know it. While the green team is still focussing on its GeForce RTX 3000 series, the prospect of playing the latest Steam games on a GPU twice as fast as the RTX 3090 is undeniably exciting. The idea of an Nvidia RTX 4090 might feel like a pipedream at the moment, as GPU and CPU shortages are still hampering rig upgrades across the globe. Thankfully, Nvidia looks set to ride the out of stock storm head-on, as it has already spent $10 billion securing RTX 4000 components. Availability is one thing, but increased demand has also led to rocketing GPU prices, and crypto mining enthusiasts are willing to pay a pretty penny. If you're planning on picking up a next-gen GPU, you'll want to learn as much as you can about Nvidia's next flagship graphics card. Since we're a helpful bunch, we've been keeping our ear to the ground to pick up any RTX 4090 price speculation, release date rumours, and information we can gather about the potential specs.

PCGamesN Monday, July 4, 2022 7:52 AM  Project Cambria is set to be Meta's next best VR headset that's fuelled by metaverse ambitions, but it won't replace the Oculus Quest 2. The company says the mixed reality device will cater to more than just gaming, even going as far as to claim it could replace your work PC or laptop. While this suggests the device will be all work and no play, there's reason to believe it'll still be a great option for VR games, even if the Oculus Quest 3 ends up being the company's actual next-gen VR gaming gizmo. We suspect that Project Cambria is the new title for the previously rumoured Oculus Quest Pro, but rumblings of an enhanced Oculus Quest 2 Pro are now making the rounds. At the company's debut Meta Connect conference in October 2021, CEO Mark Zuckerberg described its mixed reality device as a "completely new advanced and high-end product." The Facebook boss has since emphasised the difference between Quest and the new metaverse goggles in a Facebook post, claiming they aim to "seamlessly blend virtual reality with the physical world." Zuckerberg's description is perhaps more fluffy than helpful, but we've collated everything we know about Project Cambria in an effort to decipher the Meta headset's potential price, release date, and specs.

PCGamesN Monday, July 4, 2022 7:56 AM  Looking for the Destiny 2 Xur location? Xûr is Destiny 2's Exotic gear merchant. He appears every weekend to sell the game's most coveted items in exchange for Legendary shards, but if you're a casual player with limited shards to spend, it can be hard to know which items you should purchase from his inventory. That's where we come in. Xûr provides random rolls and has done so since a change in 2020, so the Exotic merchant is providing plenty of excitement as he might arrive with a god roll. We'll update this Destiny 2 Xur location guide shortly after he arrives each week on Friday, so if you're reading this, you need only read on to learn where he is, and which are the best items he's selling this week. While he jumps around from week to week, Xur's location has stuck to an established rotation for a while now, so it's easy to figure out where he is.

The story of Chaos;Head Noah revolves around Takumi Nishijo, who is a second-year in high school. He is also an otaku shut-in. In Shibuya, there has been serial murders that people called "New Generation Madness" or "NewGen." One day, someone named "Shogun" sent an image that seemed to predict the next NewGen killing. The day after, Takumi encounters that precise crime scene, with Rimi Sakihata standing in front of the corpse and covered in blood.
