     Best games like Diablo in 2022

Looking for some games like Diablo to keep you busy during the current Diablo dearth? A fully fledged sequel is probably not going to be in our eager hands for another couple of years - if that. That means there's a long time to wait for the next dose of ARPG looting, and while Diablo 3 is great and all, sometimes you need to play something new.

Well, that's where we come in, with a list of some of the best games like Diablo for you to dive into. That means you can get a fix of hitting stuff, leveling up, and wearing unreasonably jagged and oversized shoulder pauldrons, you lucky thing.

     Genshin Impact tier list November 2022: the best characters in 3.2

Looking for a Genshin Impact tier list? There are currently 58 Genshin Impact characters available, so there's no shortage of candidates for your dream team. But with so many different weapons, elementals, talents, ascension bonuses, and constellation upgrades, finding your favourites can be challenging.

Don't let the placement of the characters on our Genshin Impact tier list deter you from pulling on the next character banner. While base stats and elemental abilities are important, the value of a character also depends on personal playstyle, available weapons and artifacts, and team composition. That being said, if your favourite character is in C tier or below, you may struggle to get past some of the more challenging Spiral Abyss floors. Don't worry too much if your favourite character is on one of the lower tiers; you can still make it work with our recommended Genshin Impact builds.

In general, being on a high tier means that the character is the best Genshin Impact character in their role, is not too difficult to build, and performs well regardless of teammates. Being on a lower tier means that there are better alternatives, or the character needs a very specific build or team to shine. Just to note, the characters are not ranked within their own tier, and with that out of the way, let's take a look at our ranking of characters in our Genshin Impact tier list.

     Best Modern Warfare 2 HCR 56 loadout

If you're curious about the best Modern Warfare 2 HCR 56 loadout, we've got you covered. The HCR 56's recoil control is, to put it bluntly, not so much control as it is spray-and-pray, and the best HCR 56 loadout in MW2 is all about managing that spread. It handles like an assault rifle, so if you're partial to the best Modern Warfare 2 assault rifles, this could serve as a great opportunity to dip your toe into a different weapon pool in the FPS game.

Before we get into our best HCR 56 loadout for MW2, be aware that you must be level 41 before you can unlock it for your favourite Modern Warfare 2 modes. If you're still a few levels short, we recommend checking out our guide on how to level up fast in Modern Warfare 2. All that effort is absolutely worth it, as our list of the best Modern Warfare 2 LMGs will attest. Without further ado, here is the best Modern Warfare 2 HCR 56 loadout for your perusal.

     The best Modern Warfare 2 marksman rifles

The best Modern Warfare 2 marksman rifles give a great ranged alternative to the best sniper rifles, but they're also significantly different in a lot of ways, giving you a whole new experience when picking off the enemy team from afar. You won't get quite the same range, but you'll be heavily compensated with an improved fire rate and handling, making them ideal for the smaller 6v6 multiplayer maps.

Since marksman rifles are among the best Modern Warfare 2 guns for range, handling and fire rate, the best attachment loadouts for them seek to improve their damage, range, and accuracy, and doing so will turn these long-range guns into some of the most reliable in the FPS game. Create the perfect weapon loadout with a marksman rifle and a shorter-range weapon, like one of the best Modern Warfare 2 SMGs or shotguns, and you'll be ready to take on any of the game modes in the multiplayer game.

     Genshin Impact codes November 2022 – redeem free primogems

Looking for Genshin Impact codes? MiHoYo's charming open-world game is notoriously easy to lose yourself in, and if you're like us, you're constantly looking out for more Genshin Impact primogems and other handy consumables.

Gathering currency in Genshin Impact can be quite the grind - while you can earn mora and primogems by completing quests such as daily commissions, an injection of extra funds will always be gratefully received. Fortunately, the developers MiHoYo occasionally send out free gifts in the form of Genshin Impact codes that can be redeemed online.

These Genshin Impact codes are released periodically, frequently appearing in MiHoYo's special programs that reveal information about future updates coming to the game soon, but also to celebrate milestones or to coincide with new Genshin Impact events. Most codes also only work for a limited time - so it's a good idea to redeem them as soon as possible in case you miss out. Codes can only be redeemed once per account. Here are all the current Genshin Impact codes for November 2022, and how to redeem them.

     Genshin Impact events – all current and upcoming events

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.

     Best Modern Warfare 2 SA-B 50 loadout

Looking for the best SA-B 50 loadout in MW2? Without our beloved Kar98k, we're having to look to other Modern Warfare 2 guns as the best sniper in MW2. The SA-B 50 is a great replacement if you're missing the Kar, here's how to get the most from its loadout.

The snipers are proving a popular choice in the early days of MW2 multiplayer and it's no surprise when guns like the SA-B 50 can be built for speed and damage. These attachments focus on increasing the ADS, reload speed, and mobility. Fortunately, you can unlock this sniper early on by leveling up the SP-R 208 to level 13, and the right setup can make it ideal for quickscoping and movement speed.

     The best Minecraft servers 2022

What are the best Minecraft servers? Multiplayer servers make the world go round. Or, at least, the worlds of Minecraft. It is no secret that the PC community boasts the most ambitious players in the world, and there is no better evidence of this in action than our best Minecraft server list. The architectural artist's paradise, Minecraft has been a great creative outlet for players who can build to their heart's content, all without knowing a single line of code.

Their works and ideas are immortalised in the best Minecraft servers. Every server is its own self-contained multiplayer world, with its own rules, gameplay style, and communities. We've had a hunt around to find the very best, featuring anything from breathtaking constructions and vistas to worlds with whole new rules and game modes.

One thing to keep in mind is that different servers can sometimes use older versions of Minecraft. Plenty of servers have updated to the current 1.19 patch, but many other popular servers are sticking to older versions of the game for now. Make sure you check each server before jumping in to ensure you know what to expect and how to get it all running as intended.

     Best Modern Warfare 2 RAAL MG loadout

Curious about the best RAAL MG loadout for MW2? The RAAL-MG features on our list of the best Modern Warfare 2 LMGs, and for good reason. As with most LMGs, its rapid-fire performance means it boasts a high time-to-kill rate, and its damage output means you only need to get a few shots on target to take them out. The Modern Warfare 2 Gunsmith system grants you the opportunity to build off the RAAL MG's robust base stats even further, in order to mitigate its comparatively low mobility.

Our Modern Warfare 2 RAAL MG loadout goes to great pains to avoid attachments that apply nerfs to your aim down sight speed, since this stat is absolutely crucial for landing precision shots with the RAAL MG. It also opts for bonuses for recoil management and sprint speed, so that you can dominate the leaderboards of Activision's FPS game. Without further ado, here's the best RAAL MG loadout in MW2.

Only last week I was praising games that wanna be weird, and as such I must commend the weirdness of The Chant, a third-person action adventure where a retreat akin to Jared Leto's definitely-not-a-cult finds itself crashing into a weird nightmare realm akin to the Upside Down from Stranger Things. The thing is, if anything I don't think it's weird enough. If you're going to do a game where the main character uses flaming witchhazel sticks to lash energy-crystal monsters with vagina-flower faces, my view is that you go hard or go home.

Ghost Song is a 2D Metroid-like that's always a feast for the eyes, but a frequent frustration for your head and hands. Its gorgeous art direction depicts a vibrant alien world that bubbles and throbs with bio-mechanical life, where spore clouds and fleshy organic tunnels live side by side with floating metal skulls and impenetrable thickets of wires and cables. It's a fascinating place that seems to morph and change with every passing map segment, calling to mind the animated techno gunge of Akira and Metropolis one minute, and the flowering brilliance of Alex Garland's Annihilation the next. Its roots sink deep, creating a world you'll want to explore every last nook and cranny of as you delve deeper into its underbelly to find out why you're here.

But Deadsuit, your android-like protagonist, makes for a slightly rusty-feeling companion at times, lacking the grace and elegance of Nintendo's Samus Aran, and the nimble dexterity of Team Cherry's nameless knight. It will tide you over until Silksong arrives, for sure, but it also never quite sings in the way you'd hope.

Square Enix Symbiogenesis Involves NFTs, Not Parasite Eve

The nature of a Square Enix trademark has been revealed. However, the name isn't tied to a possible series it seemed to be. Square Enix announced Symbiogenesis, a new endeavor involving NFTs. It will launch in Spring 2023. Initially, the trademarked name almost seemed as though it could have shared a connection with the series Parasite Eve.

Square Enix didn't offer too many details about the upcoming experience, aside from confirming NFTs will play a part. It revealed a logo and described it as a "collectible art project" with a story.

Here's the official announcement, which included a brief teaser video that showed off the logo.

When the trademark first came up in October 2022, people theorized the name could be tied to the Parasite Eve series. This is because the scientific term is connected to eukaryotic cells like mitochondria, which play an important part in the Parasite Eve series' lore.

This reveal does tie in with something Square Enix confirmed earlier in 2022. The company noted that it wanted to create story-focused NFTs. However, when it discussed that, Square Enix President Yosuke Matsuda mentioned it wouldn't be making Dragon Quest or Final Fantasy blockchain games "yet."

Symbiogenesis will appear in Spring 2023.

ichiban kuji playstation header

Bandai Spirits revealed its line-up of merchandise for its PlayStation Ichiban Kuji. As the name suggests, all of the items look like PlayStation consoles or PlayStation-related symbols. It will cost 700 JPY (~$5) per attempt, and the lottery will be available in Japan from December 3, 2022. Like other Ichiban Kuji lotteries, you can buy them online or in physical stores. [Thanks, Inside Games!]

The prizes for the Ichiban Kuji for PlayStation series are:

  • A Prize: PS5-shaped savings box bank
  • B Prize: PlayStation-shaped storage container
  • C Prize: Tote bag
  • D Prize: Tableware (6 items)
  • E Prize: Towel collection (4 items)
  • F Prize: Rubber charm collection
  • Last One Prize: PlayStation controller shape cushion
  • Double Chance Campaign: PS5-shaped savings box

[gallery columns="6" ids="938921,938922,938923,938924,938925,938926" link="file"]

When you click the "open" button for the PlayStation-shaped storage container, it opens up the disc cover. The box is around 19.5 centimeters in size, which means it's perfect for small items such as accessories. As for the tableware, there are six items to choose from. You can choose cups with the PlayStation logo and the four symbols (triangle, circle, square, X). There are also coasters of the buttons.

The PlayStation Ichiban Kuji will be available from December 3, 2022. Sony announced in late October 2022 that sales of the PS5 have surpassed 2 million units in Japan. The longer time it took the PS5 to reach this milestone compared to the PS4 is due to external factors such as COVID-19 and supply issues.

the last of us hbo

HBO revealed a January 15, 2023 premier date for the HBO TV series adaptation of The Last of Us. Naughty Dog shared this news via its official Twitter account, along with a poster of the show. The poster depicts Joel and Ellie in the post-apocalyptic remains of the city. There is some fungus-like imagery at the bottom of the poster.

https://twitter.com/Naughty_Dog/status/1587837418748657665

HBO started filming the show in July 2021, and shared some new footage of the development in August 2022. Craig Mazin, who worked on Chernobyl, is the executive producer and writer, along with Neil Druckmann. Druckmann wrote for the game version of The Last of Us and Uncharted. As for people who are actually on the screen, Pedro Pascal (The Mandalorian) and Bella Ramsey (Game of Thrones) star as Joel and Ellie.

The Last of Us originally came out in 2013 for the PlayStation 3. It takes place in a post-apocalyptic America, after a mutated Cordyceps fungus turns a large portion of the population into zombie-like cannibalistic creatures. Protagonist Joel is a smuggler who has to take Ellie outside of the quarantine zone. He finds out on the journey that Ellie is immune to the fungus, and may hold the secret to a cure. The game was a success, and the remade version came out in September 2022.

The Last of Us will appear on HBO from January 15, 2023. The Last of Us Part I is readily available for the PlayStation 5, with a Windows PC version in development.

Type-Moon Witch on the Holy Night Switch, PS4 Demo Debuts

Following a brief, early Amazon product page debut on November 1, 2022, a Type-Moon game is getting ready for a worldwide debut. Aniplex announced people can get the Witch on the Holy Night Switch and PS4 demo immediately. This allows people to get a start on the remaster of the English release of Mahoutsukai no Yoru: Witch on the Holy Night. The announcement also confirmed the December 8, 2022 digital debut and January 27, 2023 physical one.

The Mahoutsukai no Yoru: Witch on the Holy Night Switch and PS4 demo offers a first look at Aoko Aozaki, a young woman who is also learning magecraft. Her and her teacher, Alice Kuonji, end up living alongside Sojuro Shizuki after he witnesses a strange attack. The three's paths end up intertwined as they investigate a supernatural incident.

There will be three versions of the game available in English when it debuts. Two will be out on December 8, 2022. One is the standard version for $39.99, which will be available for the Switch and PS4. There will also be a PS4 Digital Deluxe Edition for $49.99. That includes the digital Magician's Basic Tune. On January 27, 2023, the $59.99 limited edition will appear. That gives people a physical copy of Magician's Basic Tune and the game in a Koyama Hirokazu-designed box.

As for the early pre-orders, Aniplex addressed those on November 2, 2022. It noted that the limited edition was pulled after it mistakenly went live. Orders that did go through will be honored.

Mahoutsukai no Yoru: Witch on the Holy Night will come to the Nintendo Switch and PS4 on December 8, 2022 digitally, and a demo is available on November 3, 2022.

Idea Factory International announced a Spring 2023 release of Little Witch Nobeta. It will be available both physically and digitally on the PS4 and Nintendo Switch for players in North America and Europe. It will be a 3D action shooter game with puzzle-solving elements.

The story of Little Witch Nobeta follows the titular witch, Nobeta. She is an amnesiac. With the help of a little black cat, must explore a mysterious castle to uncover her missing memories. You can learn elemental magic in order to defeat enemies and Crafted Souls. In 2021, Justdan Games revealed that three VTubers from Hololive -- Shirogane Noel, Omaru Polka, and Shirakami Fubuki -- would voice some of the Crafted Souls. You can also use your magic to solve puzzles, which will help you open up more pathways in the castle or find hidden treasures.

Here is the trailer for Little Witch Nobeta:

     The Chant Review 1Making a successful horror game requires a delicate balance of atmosphere and game design. Above all, though, it's better when they're scary. The Chant offers some surprisingly efficient game design and marries it to responsive combat that makes for an acceptably engaging adventure. However, the game isn't scary, the narrative is silly, it's quite short, and the protagonist is honestly ridiculously overpowered for this sort of game. You'll likely have a decent enough time while the game lasts, but it definitely isn't up there with the heavyweights of the genre, even if the protagonist fights like a heavyweight herself. The Chant tells the story of an under characterized young woman named Jess. Jess is traumatized by the death of her sister years before, so her old friend Kim, who shares her trauma, invites her to a retreat for what is obviously a cult. Jess immediately seems to go, "hey, isn't this a cult?" She doesn't appe...
