PCGamesN Thursday, January 5, 2023 7:42 AM  The best Destiny 2 Hunter builds are more potent than ever. The game's introduction of aspects and fragments means players have tons of tools in their toolkits to customise their builds to conform with their playstyles. Our Destiny 2 Hunter build guide takes a deep look at the numerous ways players can develop their characters, culminating in the most powerful builds possible in the free PC game. These are all based on the current Arc 3.0 meta, but some players find the Arc 3.0 overhaul weaker than Bungie granted with the Solar and Void revamps from the previous seasons. So, we've developed the strongest builds based on the tools we have at our disposal this season.

PCGamesN Thursday, January 5, 2023 7:20 AM  Stuck on how to unlock Disney Dreamlight Valley Scar quests? The villainous lion's friendship quests are available a little later on in the game than others - and not just because Scar resides in one of the more expensive unlockable biomes. If you are still unable to access Scar's quests once you have gathered enough Dream Shards to unlock the Sunlit Plateau - where you'll find Scar living in the recognisable Elephant Graveyard - it's because there are still a few more tasks to complete first. Unlike some other Dreamlight Valley characters, you need to make sure the rest of the valley is thriving, so here's what you need to do to unlock Scar's quests in Dreamlight Valley.

PCGamesN Thursday, January 5, 2023 7:38 AM  The best Destiny 2 Titan builds have changed significantly since subclass overhauls let players completely customise their builds. Aspects and fragments now let players stack builds in creative ways that astronomically impact damage, health, ammo drops, orb output and more. Our guide to the best Destiny 2 Titan builds highlights character strengths, addressing specifically what players need to succeed in PvP or PvE in the free PC game. They're based on the Arc 3.0 meta, but given that many players find the Arc 3.0 overhaul notably weaker than its Void and Solar precursors, the builds are not necessarily in the Arc elemental subclass. Here are the best Destiny 2 Titan builds for PvP and PvE in Arc 3.0.

PCGamesN Thursday, January 5, 2023 6:33 AM  Want to know the best Warzone 2 marksman rifle? While their usefulness in Modern Warfare 2 is somewhat limited by map size, marksman rifles are a lot more lethal in battle royale as it offers a far larger island to scope out targets from a distance. To cut to the chase, the best Warzone 2 marksman rifle is the SPR-208. The marksman rifle category can't keep up with the best Warzone 2 sniper rifles in terms of stopping power, but the SPR-208 is the closest you're going to come. It offers a much faster rate of fire than most sniper rifles, and because a one-shot down isn't possible in the free PC game, the additional mobility and speed will serve you well. That should come in handy when your foe is just a bit too far away for even the best Warzone 2 guns to reach.

PCGamesN Thursday, January 5, 2023 6:30 AM  Is Quidditch in Hogwarts Legacy? The Quidditch World Cup game released back in 2003 remains a fan favourite, so if the sport fits within the timeline of Hogwarts Legacy, its inclusion seems like a no-brainer. We know that Hogwarts Legacy is based in the 1800s - long before Harry Potter, and going some way to separate itself from the works of JK Rowling. Many well-known features remain though, such as Hogwarts Legacy Floo Flames and the school's common rooms, so where does this leave Quidditch? From Harry Potter lore, we know that the earlier incarnations of the game were recorded as far back as the 11th century, with other broomstick games dated even further back than that. So, while it would technically fit into the story of the upcoming RPG game, Warner Bros has confirmed that Quidditch will not be playable when the Hogwarts Legacy release date arrives.

Hoyoverse'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.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Thursday, January 5, 2023 7:38 AM  I'm sure Game Pass subscribers can relate to the pain of having a game leave the service, especially when you're in the middle of a hefty playthrough. Your options are to binge the game in two weeks, buy the game outright, or cry. Unless you were playing Mortal Shell, in which case all you have to do is wait a month for the title to be re-added. The fantasy Soulslike had left the service on November 30th last year, but now it's back, this time with the Enhanced Edition. |

At Sony's CES 2023 press conference Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Jim Ryan announced that the company passed a new PS5 sales figure milestone. In an address to promote the brand's achievements and upcoming releases, Ryan said that Sony had sold over 30 million units to date. He also said that December 2022 was Sony's best-ever month for PS5 sales. Additionally, Ryan implied that Sony would have enough PS5 consoles on hand to satisfy customer demands. "Starting from this point forward," he said, "everyone who wants a PS5 should have a much easier time finding one at retailers globally." Since its launch in 2020, the PlayStation 5 has been dogged by persistent issues in its supply chain. The causes range from restrictions related to stemming the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic to parts shortages that slowed the pace of manufacturing. The effect was felt by consumers, who were often unable to buy PS5s when they wanted to. Some retailers used lotteries to award systems to prospective buyers, while other fans turned to scalpers selling consoles at inflated prices. It appears that Sony feels confident that it has moved beyond those supply issues and is capable of meeting demand. That demand remains high, as even two years after launch and a overall price increase in some countries, the machine is still considered difficult to acquire in some places. Ryan also expects the impending launch of the PSVR 2 hardware to boost PS5 sales numbers somewhat as well. The virtual reality suite incorporates new technology to make it competitive with current top-line VR setups, though it isn't compatible with original PSVR software.

Wada Arco teased the full appearance of Kingprotea Alter on her Twitter. She appeared in the story of Lostbelt 7, which went live in the Japanese version of Fate/Grand Order in late December 2022. Kingprotea will also be one of the Servants available to summon for the New Year's, as well as being on the GSSR banner for the Extra Class. [Thanks, Famitsu!] https://twitter.com/tsubuanfes/status/1610445545675575296 She will not be a separate Servant. Instead, this will be a costume dress for the existing Kingprotea Servant. As opposed to the more wild child-looking Kingprotea, Kingprotea Alter has a skintight suit on, with a large headdress. Underneath her headdress, we can see that she has a headband on. Her horns are not present. You will be able to get the Costume Dress for Kingprotea Alter when the second half of Lostbelt 7 goes live in late January 2023. You will likely need to complete Lostbelt 7 first before you can unlock it. There are a few differences between the Costume Dress version and the one that appears in the story. But neither Lasengle nor Wada Arco have specifically pointed them out. Fate/Grand Order is readily available on mobile devices, and the Kingprotea Alter Costume Dress for Kingprotea will go live in late January 2023. This skin will only be on the Japanese server for now. The post Kingprotea Alter Costume to Appear in FGO in January appeared first on Siliconera. |
