PCGamesN Tuesday, May 23, 2023 4:59 PM  Want to know what this week's Destiny 2 Nightfall weapon is? Each week you've got a chance at a different weapon for completing Nightfall Strikes, and ever since Season of the Lost, fan-favourite legacy weapons from the original Destiny has been added to the rotation. New seasons often introduce new weapons into the rotation, so it's more important than ever to know in advance the Nightfall weapon schedule. Nightfall: The Ordeal is a playlist available in the Vanguard menu, alongside the basic Strike playlist in the free PC game. Each week, a different Strike is chosen as the Nightfall, and offered in five escalating difficulties, with harder enemies, challenging modifiers, and enemy power levels cranking up. The coveted Nightfall weapons have a chance to drop from any Nightfall Strike difficulty, but it's far more likely at higher levels, which is something you'll want to maximise your chances for with the Destiny 2 Lightfall release date that recently passed. Your best bet for farming each week's Nightfall weapon is to set the Strike to Master difficulty, or to Grandmaster difficulty when such strikes are available if you have a fireteam up to the task.

PCGamesN Tuesday, May 23, 2023 12:28 PM  Confused about Diablo 4 item rarity? Not all items are created equal in Diablo 4, and there's a lot of loot to sift through on your journey across Sanctuary. Thankfully, Blizzard has continued Diablo's long-standing tradition of splitting items into tiers of color-coded rarity, a system that's withstood the test of time – and one which you've likely seen crop up in many other games. Equipment is a core component of Diablo 4, and the rarity of your weapons and armor is directly tied to your progression in the hellish ARPG. We've grouped the Diablo 4 rarity levels by their corresponding color, along with the number of affixes you can expect to find at each tier. We highly recommend pairing this with our primer to the Diablo 4 loot system, which delves into item effects, runewords, and more. If you'd prefer to keep things simple, here's the lowdown on Diablo 4 rarity levels ahead of the release date which is right around the corner.

PCGamesN Tuesday, May 23, 2023 12:31 PM  Want to know how the Diablo 4 loot system works? While all the material shown by Blizzard so far indicates that Diablo 4 has beautiful gothic scenarios, and fast-paced action in a dark fantasy world, we know killing demons to farm loot is a big part of the experience. The system has changed a lot since Blizzard's new RPG game was announced and now that we are close to the Diablo 4 release date, you should learn all you can about how you can get the best gear. Because of how weapons and armor have been designed for Diablo 4, players need to farm enemies and look for better loot so they can take the most out of the skill tree. Not only are some skills tied to specific types of weapons, but legendary equipment can modify skills. If you're looking for a way to make the most of the best classes, then you're going to need a good set of equipment.

PCGamesN Tuesday, May 23, 2023 12:03 PM  Want to know if there is Diablo 4 cross-progression? Modern games have become more linked up than ever before, with cloud technology enabling gamers to start a game on their high-spec PC and continue playing it on a PlayStation they bought while getting their PC repaired. Cross-progression has many handy uses such as this, so it's a huge deal when games include this much-appreciated feature. This is especially true for Diablo 4, as it's one of those games where losing progress is as bad as burning an evening meal to cinders. After all, it's an RPG game where you can find legendary loot, and it's the worst feeling in the world, sighing to yourself about what could have been before leaving it behind. As Diablo 3 had cross-progression, you might expect Diablo 4 cross-progression to be a no-brainer when the release date comes around, especially as Diablo 4 crossplay exists as well. However, not every game has this combination of features, so does Diablo 4 cross-progression exist?

It is made by Animester and costs ¥30,250/$216.99. In addition to Asuka, people also get a diorama setpiece from when she was wearing that plugsuit in Rebuild of Evangelion. She'll ship out in June 2024 in Japan. The North American debut will follow sometime in Q3 2024. This version of Asuka is a static, 1/7th scale figure. Alone, she stands at 230mm/9 inches tall. Good Smile Company didn't offer an estimate as to her size when displayed inside of the diorama. However, she can be displayed with or without the enclosure, which makes it look like she just suited up for the Evangelion Unit-03 test. Her doll from the film is on the shelf in front of the mirror. As a note, in the movie the room she was in had actual walls, but the diorama here omits them so people can more clearly see the character. Here's a closer look at the Asuka Shikinami Langley test type plugsuit figure based on Evangelion 2.0. This is the second figure of this character in that plugsuit to appear recently. Good Smile Company also announced a Plamax version that allows people to build a model kit that creates a similar sort of statue. We'll see that one worldwide in 2023.

Nintendo Japan announced that it will no longer repair Wii U systems or peripherals as soon as it runs out of its current inventory of parts. This is because that the warranty for the repair parts expired. Nintendo stated via its Japanese website that while this may be a hassle for its customers, it hopes that they will understand. The Wii U first came out on December 8, 2012 and sold over 13.56 million units throughout its lifetime. This makes it the worst-selling Nintendo console since 2005. In comparison, here are the numbers for other consoles that came out (using information from March 2023);
This information is from the Japanese Nintendo site so it likely only takes into account data from Japan. Nintendo warns customers that those who are thinking about sending in their Wii U and accessories for repairs should do so fast. It will shut down the repair service but only after it runs out of existing parts. You can also contact Nintendo Support to inquire in their inventory. However, it only accepts questions in Japanese. Nintendo of Japan will no longer accept Wii U or Wii U peripherals sent in for repairs when it runs out of its current stock of parts. It's unclear when that will be since it depends on how many people still want to fix their Wii U or peripherals.

Black Dahlia is accompanied by her bunny minions, Umbrella eats a bunny-shaped popsicle, and Annie of the Stars fights with Sagan by her side. Interestingly, some people noticed that in some parts of the gameplay video, Marie was replaced with Valentine the animation cycles. Hidden Variable acknowledged the fact and explained that, due to still being in development, other characters' frames are used to fill some gaps. Skullgirls 2nd Encore is available on the PS4, Nintendo Switch, and Windows PC via Steam. The Marie DLC is planned to release later in 2023.

A bug in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak is deleting player's materials when we try to forge decorations for their armor. Developer Capcom identified the bug as appearing in versions ver.15.0 on the Nintendo Switch and PC, and in ver.13 on the Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Windows, PS4, and PS5. The bug appears to delete materials and armor spheres that are selected for use in decoration crafting if the player then cancels out of the menu instead of confirming. Capcom is currently investigating the issue, but in the meantime recommends that players do not cancel decoration crafting after selecting materials. If you canceled accidentally, the company recommended entering another screen where you can select materials, including the screen just exited, and canceling out of that. If you have already lost materials to this bug, you can attempt to reboot the game without saving to access a previous save file. You can see Capcom's Twitter statement below: [embed]https://twitter.com/monsterhunter/status/1660924169448570880?s=20[/embed] Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak is the expansion to 2021's Monster Hunter Rise. The game was recently updated to include the Silver Rathalos Event Quest and a Cat-themed layered armor set. Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak is immediately available on Nintendo Switch, Windows PC, Ps4 and 5, and Xbox One and X/S. While there is no estimated release date for when the bug will be fixed, you can follow the official Twitter for updates.

Natsume not only announced the Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos, but also revealed its pre-order plush cow and limited edition. The game will come to the PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC on September 26, 2023. If people pre-order it through Natsume direct, Amazon, or GameStop, they get the stuffed animal. The limited edition also includes the cow. Here's a closer look at the Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos pre-order 25th Anniversary Sleepytime Cow plush. The standard copy with pre-order cow is $49.99. NIS America is already taking pre-orders for the PS5 and Xbox Series X versions of the limited edition. That gives people the soundtrack on a CD and a set of six animal pins for $84.99. As a reminder, Harvest Moon is now different from the Bokujou Monogatari series. It is now an original farming and life sim line of games from Natsume. New entries in the other series are published by Xseed under the Story of Seasons name. The Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos release date is September 26, 2023. People will be able to find it on the PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC.

Capcom shared an official Street Fighter 6 Fighter & Control Type Personality Quiz designed to help people find a character to make their main. It is now available on the official site. It is designed to help people determine if they would be most comfortable with the Classic, Dynamic, or Modern control option. It also features all 18 characters who will be present in the game at launch as possible results. The quiz begins by asking how you approach to a fight when it starts. It then asks if people would use a rush down technique. It also breaks down potential fighting styles without using technical terms, instead asking how people would approach in a certain situation. After making choices in the first part, it assigns you a character and moves on to the control type portion of the Street Fighter 6 Fighter & Control Type Personality Quiz. Once you finish that, it explains why that fighter and control scheme were recommended. It also lets you share your results on social media. This isn't the only way Capcom attempted to help us get acclimated to Street Fighter 6 ahead of launch. For example, the company held an open beta weekend in May 2023 and released a demo, so people could get hands-on experience with the game. It also started releasing a series of "how to play" videos. These feature both returning characters like Dhalsim and E. Honda and newcomers such as Jamie. Its most recent "how to play" video featured Dee Jay.
Street Fighter 6 will appear on the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC on June 2, 2023, and its demo is available now. It will also eventually appear in arcades. The post Capcom Shares Official Street Fighter 6 Fighter & Control Type Personality Quiz appeared first on Siliconera. |

Sensor Tower updated its charts for the highest grossing mobile games in April 2023, and Honkai: Star Rail already made enough revenue to be in the Top 10. This data only takes April 2023 into consideration. Sensor Tower split it into three categories: Overall Revenue, App Store Revenue, and Google Play Revenue. [Thanks, Game Watch!] The following data uses global revenue. You can view the chart here: [caption id="attachment_964522" align="alignnone" width="1200"] For reference, Tencent's Honor of Kings made a combined $213 million (calculating both its App Store and Google Play earnings). Meanwhile, PUBG Mobile made $154 million. 62.2% of those earnings came from China's iOS store, 9.4% from the US market, and 3.3% from Saudi Arabia. While it is not on the Google Play Revenue chart and it's fairly low on the rankings, one must remember when Honkai: Star Rail came out. It had its worldwide release on April 25, 2023 and as a reminder, this chart only takes April 2023's data into consideration. While Honkai: Star Rail made a staggering amount of revenue when Jing Yuan's banner launched (to the point that it broke the top-up service in China), that was in May 2023. So Sensor Tower did not use that revenue when making these charts. All of the games on the April 2023 Sensor Tower charts are available on mobile devices. Some, such as Genshin Impact, are available on other platforms such as Windows PC. The post Honkai Star Rail Already in Top 10 for April 2023 Revenue appeared first on Siliconera. |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Tuesday, May 23, 2023 7:49 PM  The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has a lot of small details packed into the world of Hyrule, many of which you won't even notice on the first time through. For example, Dondons can give you rare gemstones if you feed them Luminous Stones, but you can only find this out by talking to the person who's minding them at the singular location they're at in the entire game. Stuff like this is pretty cool, and can be found basically anywhere in Hyrule, one example of this is the way you can get back lost or sold armor pieces. Here's our guide on how to get sold unique clothing items back in Tears of the Kingdom.

PC Invasion - FeedDDD Tuesday, May 23, 2023 7:05 PM  Are you wondering where to find and beat Blue Lynel in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (TOTK) so you can obtain Majora's Mask? Locating the Blue Lynel and defeating them may appear to be a challenging undertaking. This is due to their formidable nature and the requirement to advance the TOTK monster evolution to a specific level before they appear. However, here is an easy-to-follow guide on how to find and beat Blue Lynel in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (TOTK). Where to find Blue Lynel in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (TOTK) Image: PC Invasion One aspect that I learned through hours of playtime and then confirmed with other TOTK players from PC Invasion: if you want Lynel to transform into different colors after each blood moon, it's essential to defeat enough of the previous colored versions. This is similar to the Zelda Breath of the Wild (BOTW) process. If you don't do this, you'll only come across Red, Blue, or White Lynel in certain areas. On... |
