PCGamesN Thursday, May 11, 2023 7:53 AM  When is the Judas release date? We are huge fans here of games such as BioShock and BioShock Infinite, where the player explores a dystopian world filled with ambitious technology, cool abilities, and top-notch storytelling. So naturally, when Judas was revealed in December last year, complete with its System Shock-like vibes, it grabbed our attention. If you're in the dark about why we're so excited, Judas is an upcoming FPS game by Ghost Story Games, a studio led by Ken Levine and other former Irrational Games developers. Yes, the same people behind the aforementioned BioShock and BioShock Infinite. Like those earlier games, Judas will be a single-player story game, but one set in a futuristic sci-fi universe, much in a similar vein to BioShock's predecessor. While we're still quite a ways off, we can shed some light on what to expect with the upcoming Judas release date, trailers, gameplay, story, and more.

PCGamesN Thursday, May 11, 2023 7:47 AM  Eager for the Minecraft 1.20 update release date? So are we.

PCGamesN Thursday, May 11, 2023 7:47 AM  Looking for a list of the best dragon games on PC? Since long before the days of Dungeons and Dragons, and before Tolkein became the poster boy of fantasy, dragons have been the most fearsome and majestic creatures of myth. Usually, they breathe fire and hoard gold, other times they become companions and deign to be ridden, and more often than not they get mistaken for wyverns. PC games, and the best RPGs in particular, are naturally swarming with dragons and dragon-like creatures, both as friends and foes. We've collected some of the best dragon games on PC like The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim where you can encounter, battle, or befriend a dragon including entries from multiplayer games or MMORPGs. Given that dragons can't often be taken down by a single adventurer (looking at you, Dragonborn) it makes sense that plenty of games that look to tackle dragons do so at the epic proportions of hundreds of players joining together to defeat them. Here are the best dragon games you'll want to try if you want to take on these mythical monsters. We're kicking off with some free-to-play before we get stuck into AAA titles.

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.

Thanks to its high damage, range, and one-shot-kill potential, the TAQ-M is undoubtedly one of the best weapons in the battle royale.

PCGamesN Thursday, May 11, 2023 5:31 AM  Want to know what all the Vampire Survivors weapon evolutions are? This roguelite indie game is still viral as players discover the sheer joy of walking around a forest or library, slaying an ever-growing encroaching horde of monsters that just want to be very close to you. It's a relatively simple yet viral indie game. It's also one of the best PC games of the past year. However, mastering it and unlocking Vampire Survivors characters can get tricky if you don't spec into the correct build from the start. To evolve an item in Vampire Survivors, you must first level up a weapon to its maximum level, collect its linked item when it appears on the level-up screen, and then kill an elite monster and open the chest it leaves behind. Unfortunately, you only have a few slots for weapons and items, so you must choose carefully. With the release of the new Tides of Foscari DLC, it's worth reminding yourself of how Vampire Survivors weapon evolutions work and what you need to do to discover the new ones.

Discovery casually name-dropped Mortal Kombat 12 earlier in the year, when an earnings call revealed the fighter was "set to release this year, with ambitious launch projections." The relaxed announcement wasn't followed by any flashy marketing (outside of a few funny Ed Boon tweets) until now.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Thursday, May 11, 2023 6:00 AM .jpg?width=1920&height=1920&fit=bounds&quality=80&format=jpg&auto=webp) After playing the the demo at last year's PAX West, then playing the same demo again at this year's PAX East, and then playing it a third time from the comfort of my own home as part of this year's LudoNarraCon, I think I'm slightly obsessed with Demonschool. I've had a blast beating up supernatural weirdos with a group of misfit college teens. Together with its soundtrack of absolute bangers that combines dramatic church choir chorus with pulsing synth wave beats (please put the OST on Spotify, Ysbryd), and a slick art style that makes me dribble like a brain-hungry zombie every time I see it, I'm thinking that Demonschool might very well be on its way to being be one of my favourite games of 2023 when it releases sometime this year. What can I say? I love punching freaky demons in the face. |
