     Star Wars Outlaws will be

Star Wars Outlaws is one of the most highly anticipated RPGs this year, due in part to the fact that it will stand as the Star Wars series' first open-world game. While Ubisoft's upcoming title has already amassed quite a fan following, there is still much to learn about what makes Star Wars Outlaws unique.

     How to change difficulty in Remnant 2

How do you change difficulty in Remnant 2? Just like its notoriously difficult predecessor, Remnant 2 is a challenging game, so it's unlikely you'll be considering a step up in difficulty. If you are just that good though, or are after the more realistic step down, it's not all that straightforward to do, so we've delved into the worlds of Remnant II to find out how it's done.

There are four Remnant 2 difficulty levels, and given the challenging nature of the game series, 'easy mode' is actually recommended for most - that is to say, the lowest difficulty. None are "easy". As such, if you want the best chance of surviving the terrifying Remnant 2 bosses ahead, be it alone or in co-op, you're better off starting low. If it's too late, or you want to take it up a notch and really challenge yourself, here's how to increase or decrease your difficulty level in Remnant 2.

FFVII Remake Aerith future

Square Enix shared new details about Aerith and Cloud's first encounter in Final Fantasy VII Remake. It goes over how Aerith knew that Cloud was ex-SOLDIER and a mercenary, and her strange memories of the future. Throughout all of FFVII Remake, Aerith seems to know things that haven't happened yet. The company explained this is because of strange memories that she has that the Whispers are trying to take away from her.

The tweet shared by the FFVII Remake Twitter account answered the question of why Aerith called Cloud a jack-of-all-trades when they meet Reno at the beginning of Chapter 8. In the English localization of the game, Aerith instead called Cloud a mercenary, to which she added that she guessed he is one from his Buster Sword.

The answer revealed that, in FFVII Remake, Aerith possesses vague memories that she shouldn't have of future events that haven't happened yet. Because of this, she knows some things about Cloud and the others before meeting them.

When Aerith calls Cloud a jack-of-all-trades (or mercenary), she is doing so unintentionally because of one of these memories she has, as she somehow "remembered" this about Cloud. Additionally, during the course of the game, every time one of the Whispers touches her, they are taking some of these memories away from her.

You can check out the original tweet here:

https://twitter.com/FFVIIR_CLOUD/status/1683401637824708608

Additionally, the tweet shared a conversation between Aerith and Tifa from Chapter 12, where Aerith knows that Tifa is going to ask her to save Marlene before Tifa has the chance to finish saying it.

Square Enix recently shared more information about Aerith's strange memories and powers in the FFVII Remake, and addressed the vision she and Marlene shared at the Seventh Heaven bar,

Final Fantasy VII Remake is available for the PS4, PS5, and Windows PC.

Final Fantasy XIV Garlond GL-IS motorcycle mount

Square Enix revealed a new Fan Fest 2023 sidecar motorcycle mount for Final Fantasy XIV called the Garlond GL-IS. It will be 10% off on sale for a limited time. During the sale it will cost $33.30, and its regular price is $37. The sale ends on August 16, 2023. The Garlond GL-IS mount is now available for purchase from the Final Fantasy XIV Online Store.

The Garlond GL-IS is a two-person mount that can move through the ground as well as the air, and it can travel at the first enhanced level areas where increased mount speed is available. However, the sidecar is not for the second person in your party. Instead, a life-sized recreation of Alpha sits on it. Party members will sit on top of the sidecar in a rather unsafe way.

The Final Fantasy XIV YouTube account shared a showcase video of the Garlond GL-IS sidecar motorcycle mount in motion, and you can check it out here:

     Sarat TitleEven if you've beaten the campaign, Dungeons are great places to earn EXP and Legendary Aspects in Diablo 4. The grind to level 50 is a long one, especially if you've done it already on your Eternal Character. Fortunately, a few Dungeons stand above the rest as reliable sources of EXP. With that in mind, let me show you where to find Sarat's Lair in Diablo 4, one of the best EXP farms in the game. Even if you don't need EXP, Sarat's Lair is worth a visit if you're a Sorcerer, as it unlocks the Snowveiled Defensive Aspect for the class. It's not exactly a staple of Sorcerer builds, but an excellent defensive option nonetheless. Where to find Sarat's Lair in Diablo 4 Image by PC Invasion You can find Sarat's Lair in the southwest of Scosglen. I've circled the location in the image above, and the closest Waypoints are either Firebreak Manor or Cerrigar. Once you've arrived, you'll quickly realize that Sar...
