     Stray multiplayer is here, thanks to this mod

Stray mods are the gift that keeps giving, letting you play BlueTwelve's sci-fi platformer (or should we say catformer?) in first-person, or even as a dog. But this might be the most revolutionary yet, overhauling the whole game experience by adding a new, split-screen multiplayer mode.

     Building your ultimate gaming setup with Razer peripherals

As PC gaming becomes more popular and affordable, gaming desks adorn more bedrooms and offices than ever before, with a focus on creating the perfect environment for a long and comfortable session. Whether covered in tastefully minimalist decor or vibrant retro memorabilia, the space where we game has increasingly come to symbolise our style and personality, with the peripherals we choose forming a major part of that vision.

Creating that perfect stream backdrop may be important to you, or you may just want to feel at home when you play, with sights and sounds that help you achieve your best. With many gaming computers and desk areas doubling as work-from-home spaces, you'll want every peripheral on hand to be sleek, sophisticated, but with a little splash of excitement.

Just because the aesthetic of a space is important to you shouldn't mean you sacrifice performance, however. Luckily, Razer specialise in smart and high-quality gaming peripherals that look and act the part, perfect for all kinds of usage - from streaming to immersing yourself in a virtual world. Built for gamers, by gamers, their mission is to deliver the winning advantage.

     Fortnite The Last of Us skins rumour debunked by Naughty Dog

July 25, 2022: Despite multiple leakers reporting it, Naughty Dog confirms "no plans" for Fortnite The Last of Us skins. Original story as follows:

It's looking possible that Fortnite The Last of Us skins might be on the way to the battle royale game, as part of a collaboration between Epic and Sony, at least according to several leakers - and may drop around The Last of Us Part 1 remake release date in September.

While there has already been one crossover between Fortnite and a Naughty Dog-developed game series this year in the form of Uncharted, it looks like The Last of Us skins are on their way too - with at least Joel and Ellie being available.

At least, not straight away anyway. Luckily, these things don't ever stay cryptic for long. HalfGlassGaming's Josh Wirtanen has proffered a handy guide to how to read the chapter titles, signs and music sheets, with help from the growing Stray community.

The Last of Us Part 1

Naughty Dog is currently working on a remake of 2013's The Last of Us, bringing it to the PlayStation 5. The project was long-rumored and finally leaked by a PlayStation Direct store listing. Now Naughty Dog itself has come forward with a gameplay showcase for the game. Now called The Last of Us Part 1, a new video documentary highlights the team's goals and the upgrades players can expect from the transition to PS5.

Check it out below.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRKIWQUucj0

In the The Last of Us Part 1 "Rebuilt for PS5" feature, Naughty Dog figures like Co-President Neil Druckmann, Director Matthew Gallant, and Creative Director Shawn Escayg hold forth on their goals for the game. The feature shows off comparisons between 2014's The Last of Us Remastered  (a PS4 upgrade of the game) and The Last of Us Part 1 running on the PS5. According to the team, the PS5's extra power and graphical capabilities allow Naughty Dog to bring the game closer to their original creative vision. The effort also allows them to take advantage of innovations and lessons learned from the development of The Last of Us Part 2.

Gallant mentioned that when it came out on PS3 in 2013, the original game already pushed the limits of the console's capabilities. Thus the PS5's greater specifications can touch every part of the game, from lighting to environment art to character modeling and facial expressions. Increased density of "physics objects" allows for more immersive environments and adds intensity to encounters as characters scramble over and through the scenery. Druckmann and Gallant also spoke on improvements to the in-game A.I.. These upgrades allow NPC "buddy" characters to predict enemy behavior to a certain extent and react accordingly. PS5-native features like 3D audio and the Dualsense controller's haptic feedback will also enhance the experience, they claim.

The Last of Us Part 1 will also contain more than just visual and performance improvements. The accessibility features debuted in The Last of Us Part 2 will be included, as well as things like full Audio Description for cutscenes. An evolved Photo Mode, a timed Speedrun Mode, Permadeath modes, and a Model Viewer mode will be included on release. The game itself includes the main campaign and Left Behind DLC content, while adding a number of cosmetic unlocks for weapons and character outfits. One thing that won't be included is the Factions multiplayer mode. Like Part 2The Last of Us Part 1 won't have a multiplayer mode. Naughty Dog is developing a standalone multiplayer game based on the franchise, though no information exists about that title at the moment.

The Last of Us Part 1 releases on PS5 on September 2, 2022The Last of Us Remastered is available on PS4, and is part of the PS Plus Collection game library available to all PS5 owners that subscribe to PS Plus.

Square Enix's remaster of Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together may have a release date. A listing on PlayStation Store price tracker site PSDeals.net lists the Tactics Ogre: Reborn release date November 11, 2022. The listing also included a detailed description of the remastered title's features, and a few screenshots. Previous leaks showed off some new key artwork and a possible cover shot, but no release window, screenshots, or description.

According to the description on PSDeals.net, Tactics Ogre: Reborn is destined for PS4 and PS5. It is based on the 2010 PSP-based Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together. It's worth reiterating that at the moment none of this information is confirmed.

In addition to a release date, the Tactics Ogre: Reborn description touts a "completely revamped AI", and a change of the level management system from being "class-wide" to "unit-by-unit". It also highlights playability improvements like a quicker battle speed, auto-saving, and an overhaul to controls and UI. Character art and backgrounds have been recreated in HD.

Check out some of the leaked screenshots in the gallery.

[gallery link="file" ids="932669,932670,932671,932672,932673,932674"]

Production-wise, cutscenes will be fully voiced in English and Japanese. The music of Tactics Ogre: Reborn has also been rerecorded with live performances.

Lastly, the description suggests a physical release of Tactics Ogre: Reborn is in the cards. Owners of the PS4 edition of the game can avail of the PS5 digital edition for free, though they'll need to insert the disc to use the PS5 digital edition.

Tactics Ogre: Reborn may be in development, but has not yet officially been announced. If the leaks above are correct, it will arrive on PS4 and PS5 by November 11, 2022. Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together is available on PSP, and playable on PS Vita and PS TV.
