     Genshin Impact tier list January 2023: the best characters in 3.3

Looking for a Genshin Impact tier list? There are currently 59 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 Genshin Impact 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 in the free PC game 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.

Some of these games are old, others are new, and all are great. Wolfenstein 2's amazing campaign; Rainbow Six Siege's tight tactical multiplayer; Overwatch 2 and its vast array of amazing heroes. No matter what sort of virtual gunplay you're after, the following titles will satisfy your itchy trigger finger.

Call of Duty zombies are likely to return in future CoD games, with Black Ops, Vanguard, and Black Ops Cold War developer Treyarch posting several new undead-related jobs. This follows after Activision confirms a "premium" Call of Duty release in 2023, but also states that Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 will not be getting a zombies mode, as the FPS game heads towards the Modern Warfare 2 season 2 release date.

     Is Hogwarts Legacy multiplayer?

Want to know if there's Hogwarts Legacy multiplayer? While you have a classmate from one of the four houses as a companion who accompanies you in your adventures around Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, they are not the same as another player watching your back. They can't do as good a job fending off nefarious warlocks casting forbidden curses or shouting that there are trolls in the dungeon, because you really ought to know.

The latest game in the extended Harry Potter universe has the potential to be one of the best PC games of this year, but you may be wondering if you can play Hogwarts Legacy multiplayer as part of a co-op - or competitive - mode. With so much to discover in the open-world game, it would be truly magical to fly around Hogsmede on broomsticks in makeshift obstacle courses or practice casting your Hogwarts Legacy spells in sparring matches to prepare you for more extensive tests.

The Lost Ark player count has seen a dramatic drop on Steam in recent days, plummeting from roughly 300,000 average concurrent players to just under 100,000. But it might be good news for fans of one of the most popular free games on PC. Developer Smilegate reassures players that "This change is the direct result of a roll out of a significant number of bot account bans" in the RPG, and promises even more in the coming months.

     The best offline games for PC 2023

Looking for the best offline games? If you're disconnected from the internet for any length of time, you'll need the best offline PC games to help tide you over. Not every game lets you play offline, though.

Though you'd expect multiplayer games and MMO games to require an internet connection, there's more to think about when preparing a stockpile of the best offline games for your long commute or holiday. Some games require a license check before launching, for anti-piracy reasons - and although this doesn't take long to perform, it means you can't access the game without an internet connection. Unless you're playing on GOG, there's often no easy way to tell if a game you're eyeing will actually let you play without being hooked up to the web. Online games are all well and good, but there frustrating when you just want to download something and play it at your leisure.

Lucky for you, there's no shortage of fun offline games to choose from, whether you're a fan of classic RPG games or the biggest modern open world games. We've got something to suit nearly every taste and need, so read on if you're on the computer but don't have an internet connection, or travelling and need a game without demanding controls. While you'll naturally need an internet connection to purchase and download the games, you're free to play them offline in their entirety.

     GTA podium car: here's what vehicle you can win in GTA Online

What is the GTA podium car this week? GTA Online vehicles are expensive things, so we're happy to take a spin on the Diamond Casino's Lucky Wheel to get a discount. Winning isn't guaranteed, sure, but it isn't out of the question, either. Look, we don't have a problem - leave it alone.

Finding out what is the GTA podium car is simple enough - it's winning it that's the challenge. You can spin the Diamond Casino's Lucky Wheel once daily, and each Podium Car refreshes after seven days on a Thursday. Basically, you have seven shots to get the vehicle of that given week. If you own a Penthouse, you can spin it for free, but if you don't, it's $500 a spin. Don't fret if you don't win, as you can try for something else.

You have a one in 20 chance of getting the podium vehicle, a car discount, or a mystery prize. There's a four in 20 chance of getting clothes, chips, and cash. Finally, there's a five in 20 chance of getting RP. On that note, here's everything you need to know about this week's GTA podium car.

Books can also be enchanted with Minecraft enchanting tables, and combined with a Minecraft anvil, they can enchant other items, such as your weapons or your Minecraft shield.

     LoL yet I do not fear the darkness mystery champion explained

If you're looking for the answer to the League of Legends yet I do not fear the darkness mystery champion quote, you're in the right place. Recently, Riot kicked off the 2023 season with a bunch of season missions for players to complete, mystery champions they had to play as, or with, in order to unlock rewards. You're given a piece of lore in the description, and that's it, figure out the rest.

One of the more difficult missions in the free PC game is simply named 'Yet I do not fear the darkness'. Whether that's a direct quote from a champion or merely a theme of one of their skins, it doesn't say. There are many League of Legends champions that are themed around light - Lux, for instance, is the Lady of Luminosity, and strives to fight darkness wherever she goes, but is she the mystery champion we're looking for?

     Best farming games and agricultural games on PC 2023

The best farming games have a relaxing quality. There's something about the repetitive nature of tilling and planting a field and the slow payoff of your crops growing that makes you feel in-tune with nature - even if you are still sitting in front of your computer screen. The best farming games on PC can vary a lot in genre and gameplay, but all eventually come down to getting your hands dirty.

Farming games like Harvest Moon are meant to be experienced alone and focus on the relationships between your protagonist and a cast of local characters. Others, like multiplayer games Staxel and Farm Together, are all about building something with friends and the fun of creating something together that's more than a prewritten story, so the genre is still full of variation. Whether they're cute and casual town games like Stardew Valley then, or more realistic business ventures like the Farming Simulator series, we've found a mix of the best farming games that should hit every quadrant of the agricultural games graph.

If you're looking for details on the Redfall release date, we've got you covered. The co-op vampire shooter comes from developers Arkane, best known for building rich, very deliberate worlds, and weaving intricate stories around their fascinating creations. This time, instead of a space station, or the clockwork city of Dunwall, they've focused on a small tourist town in the eastern US.

There are vampires, sure. A sniper with an undead eye? Check. They even have a cryptozoologist, because why not. The cast of Redfall characters is varied enough, but how will this co-op game fare when compared to Arkane's other creations? Many have likened Redfall to co-op shooters like Left 4 Dead, although it's allegedly going to be more like Far Cry than the aforementioned zombie shooter. Here's what we know about the Redfall release date, all the trailers, gameplay, and more.

     Minecraft grindstone recipe

What is the Minecraft grindstone recipe? They are a type of block naturally generated in villages, specifically in the blacksmiths. To use a Minecraft grindstone, you'll need to combine two items of the same type, forging a new item with the combined durability plus 5% up to the maximum durability of that specific item type. This consumes both items in the process, and all enchantments are removed, returning the enchantment cost to you as handy experience points.

You can also use a Minecraft grindstone to remove all non-curse enchantments from a single item. Simply place your enchanted item in either input slot, and it will disenchant. The grindstone will also remove any prior work penalty from items, except cursed items. It's all quite simple once you know what you're doing. So if you need to tinker with your items quickly, here's a guide to crafting a Minecraft grindstone and how it differs from a Minecraft anvil and enchanting table.

     All upcoming Tower of Fantasy banners for January 2023

The upcoming Tower of Fantasy banners on the schedule shed some light on which characters are set to make their debut, and which fan favourites are making a welcome return to the gacha system. Tower of Fantasy has been out for quite some time in China already, so we have some idea of who we can expect to join the roster of playable simulacra, and how often they rotate.

The best upcoming Tower of Fantasy banners require red nuclei, which are extremely rare in comparison to the other nucleus currencies available. The most reliable way to acquire red nuclei is via the 'HOT' shop. A single Red Nucleus costs 150 Dark Crystals, so be prepared to save up 1,500 Dark Crystals for a ten-stack of Special Orders. Here are all the Tower of Fantasy banners you can spend that hard-earned currency on in one of the best free PC games currently available.

So we thought we'd put the question to you, readers. Do you agree and think achievements have been a blight on the industry, or do you think they're actually good way of getting more out of a game?

Microsoft were hoping to complete their takeover of Activision Blizzard by the end of their financial year in June. That's looking less likely now that the US Federal Trade Commission have published a schedule that sets dates for final hearings to decide on the merger, and they're going to begin on August 2nd. As this is just the kick off for hearings about the case, it's likely that any FTC decision on whether the $68.7 billion (£56 billion) deal can go ahead will take some time to emerge.

Fire Emblem Engage Exercising

Nintendo shared new info about fishing and exercising in the upcoming Fire Emblem Engage. Protagonist Alear can enjoy these two mechanics while in Somniel. The fishing minigame makes a return from Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Exercising allows Alear to temporarily raise their stats.

The official Fire Emblem Japanese Twitter account shared a couple of short clips on new activities that players will be able to enjoy in Somniel, the main hub of Fire Emblem Engage. The first one focuses on the fishing minigame, which seems to work slightly different from its previous iteration. This time, players will have to pull the L stick and follow the prompts on screen to reduce the fish's resistance and catch it.

https://twitter.com/FireEmblemJP/status/1613078308979355650

The second clip focuses on exercising, a new minigame in Fire Emblem Engage. Through exercising, the player can raise Alear's stats through three different physical activities. Stats increases will vary depending on player performance, with them being higher if done perfectly.

https://twitter.com/FireEmblemJP/status/1613077976123584513

Nintendo previously detailed other elements and activities that players can realize in Somniel. One of these activities involves Sommie, the mascot of the game and Somniel's guardian.

Fire Emblem Engage is coming out for the Nintendo Switch on January 20, 2023. It is available to pre-order in the Nintendo eShop.

As for Varoom, you can find it in Areas One, Two, and Three. Revavrooms are also in Areas One and Three. Of course, if you have a Varoom, you can evolve it into a Revavroom as well.
