PCGamesN Tuesday, December 6, 2022 7:56 AM  Finding each of the four Midnight Suns elemental rods is one of many treasure hunts you'll find yourself in when exploring the Abbey. Getting each of these elemental rods back in its rightful place is essential if you plan on uncovering every mystery that the Salem-adjacent boarding house has to offer. Breaking down the magical barriers on the Abbey grounds requires moon seals, with the second of those being hidden within Agatha's altar. To reveal the moon seal in Agatha's altar, you'll first need to collect the four elemental rods and slot them into their corresponding plinth. These in-depth side quests are one of the reasons that Midnight Suns is up there with the best PC games released this year.

PCGamesN Tuesday, December 6, 2022 8:04 AM  Unlocking all of the Modern Warfare 2 achievements - or trophies if you're on PS5 - is no mean feat, because it requires dedication, skill, and a little bit of information. The achievements in Modern Warfare 2 range from being a ghost, eliminating enemies before they know you're there, to playing 'the floor is lava' on the deck of a ship. While most are completed in the campaign, some must be obtained as the story continues in Co-op. So, really, it's only once the credits roll in the Call of Duty campaign that the real work begins. Getting every achievement in the FPS game the first time around, at least without a guide, is nearly impossible, so we're here to give you a helping hand. Luckily, we have listed each achievement in the Modern Warfare 2 Spec Ops mode and campaign below and its description. Where available, we even have a walkthrough to help you complete it.

PCGamesN Tuesday, December 6, 2022 7:33 AM  This Doom mod is a little different to most, because it's not about changing the way the game plays as such, more just giving it a coat of paint that the FPS game probably shouldn't have.

PCGamesN Tuesday, December 6, 2022 7:05 AM  The Disney Dreamlight Valley Toy Story update was announced in September alongside the addition of the Lion King update and new Scar quests. While the wicked lion king has already moved into his home in the Elephant Graveyard, we're still awaiting the delivery of Andy's favourite toys - but we do now have a release date.

The Disney life sim already features lots of familiar faces, but we know there is room for "unlimited" expansions. The Dream Castle already houses around 30 unlocked doors, which will eventually lead to new realms. That said, you'd think these new updates would be coming thick and fast, with Scar added just six weeks after the original release date. The Toy Story update might be coming a little later than anticipated, but it is still the second major update in just three months, with a Beauty and the Beast update expected not long into the new year.
