Kotaku Wednesday, December 6, 2023 5:34 PM  The 2023 Game Awards are happening on December 7. And to celebrate a night of mostly trailers, ads, and celebrities with maybe (if we're lucky) a few awards tossed in, Steam and The Game Awards have teamed up for a big sales event discounting some of the best games of the last decade. |
Kotaku Wednesday, December 6, 2023 4:30 PM  While the Batman: Arkham Trilogy may be something of a dumpster fire on Nintendo Switch, folks playing the superhero adventure games via the handheld-console hybrid found one redeeming element: a touching tribute to legendary Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy. |
Kotaku Wednesday, December 6, 2023 2:45 PM  Earlier this week, Rockstar Games released the long-awaited first trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI, the massive sequel to 2013's GTA 5. And while the trailer itself is quickly racking up millions of views every hour, the Tom Petty song featured in it is also doing pretty dang well, too. |
Kotaku Wednesday, December 6, 2023 2:33 PM  Cyberpunk 2077 is in a pretty good spot these days. After a dumpster fire of a launch, the next-gen update, 2.0 patch, and Phantom Liberty expansion have gotten CD Projekt Red's open-world RPG to a respectable state. The 2.1 patch that launched this week adds a nice little bow to the game as its "last big update." It… |

Kotaku Wednesday, December 6, 2023 12:56 PM  So, how many times have you watched the Grand Theft Auto VI trailer thus far?

PCGamesN Wednesday, December 6, 2023 2:16 PM Well, who would have guessed that The Game Awards would spark a battle of the PC gaming handhelds? Shortly after the announcement that Geoff Keighley is going to give away 100 Steam Deck OLED models during the awards show, Lenovo clapped back, offering 100 of its Legion Go devices up for grabs too. As the old saying goes, 'You've got to be in it, to win it', and some lucky gamers could win both a Steam Deck OLED and Lenovo Legion Go, if the planets align.

Last Train Home, launched just last week on Steam, is one such tale - putting you in charge of a small group of soldiers desperately trying to get home in the wake of the Great War. Now, if you want to pick it up for yourself, you can get one of the most hard-hitting war stories, the excellent This War is Mine, as essentially a free game alongside it.

PCGamesN Wednesday, December 6, 2023 12:31 PM What are the best open-world games on PC? From the early days of gaming, with Ultima and Lords of Midnight, open-world games have always been right at home on PC - indeed, those pesky consoles often couldn't handle it. Compare the ambitious early version of Halo to the final, more confined result, for example - and only the PC could hold sprawling regions in the very first Elder Scrolls games. Nevertheless, the leap into full 3D with Grand Theft Auto 3 and The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind really brought the idea of open-world gaming to the masses. These days, open-world games are their own genre separate from single-player MMOs. You can find accurate depictions of real-life cities or countries, huge fictional expanses with their own landmarks, complete worlds to check out - or even entire galaxies, depending on where you want to go on your next adventure. Not only are these the best open-world games, but a lot of them show up in our best PC games list, too.

PCGamesN Wednesday, December 6, 2023 11:35 AM Resident Evil 4 Remake has some of the finest over-the-shoulder shooting in all of videogames. The original RE4 set the standard, of course, but Capcom's 2023 horror hit made it louder, nastier, and more gratifying. You take the intense, back-to-the-wall action of Leon Kennedy's latest outing, and combine it with the isometric viewpoint and brutalist, pseudo-Soviet aesthetic of Disco Elysium. It sounds like they won't fit together - how can you have a third-person shooter if we're playing from that classic CRPG-type perspective. But you see, this is the trick. With an art style also reminiscent of Signalis, and dismemberment mechanics that would make Dead Space's Isaac Clarke jealous, Holstin, a new survival horror game available to try on Steam, has a lot of cool surprises.

PCGamesN Wednesday, December 6, 2023 11:31 AM What are the Diablo 4 Abattoir of Zur rewards? This punishing Pinnacle Dungeon is the highlight of patch 1.2.3, offering high-level players a chance to test their mettle against the hardest challenges that the servants of Zir can throw at them. That said, the Diablo 4 Abattoir of Zir rewards aren't as substantial as you might assume. In many ways, the challenge is meant to be the reward in itself, as Blizzard continues to expand the Diablo 4 endgame for its most powerful players. The Diablo 4 Abattoir of Zir is effectively a time trial, which tasks you to clear the Diablo 4 dungeon in the space of ten minutes. However, this simple challenge is easier said than done, and even battle-hardened Diablo 4 veterans can may find it a struggle. That said, here's what you can earn once you finally beat it.

The AMR9 is a lightweight and versatile SMG that can be customized in various ways to suit your playstyle, whether that's improving the gun's range or adding extra firepower so it operates more like an AR. The AMR9 gives the MW3 Striker loadout a run for its money to be the best SMG in MW3. We've decided to steer into the AMR9's strengths of being mobile and snappy, as well as being pretty fun to use, so have gone for a class setup and loadout to improve its mobility even further.

PCGamesN Wednesday, December 6, 2023 11:23 AM What is the best Rival 9 loadout? Taking an SMG into battle as your primary weapon is a statement, it tells your opponents that you're going to push the pace of the fights, that you're going to get in their face, and that you're going to be relentless. The Rival 9 is a compact SMG that will see you run rings around your enemies. The Modern Warfare 3 release date is here, and with it comes a host of new MW3 guns and a bunch of classic MW3 maps. One of these new guns is the Rival 9, an all-rounder when it comes to the SMG category, the Rival 9 sits in the middle for nearly every attribute, which makes it an excellent choice if you plan on engaging the enemy in a multitude of scenarios.

PCGamesN Wednesday, December 6, 2023 11:10 AM While there is plenty of hype for The Game Awards 2024 - and a fair bit of controversy - one thing that is becoming somewhat of an annual tradition is the giving away of Steam Decks. This year, 100 1TB Steam Deck OLED models can be won, and all you have to do is watch the marathon awards ceremony live. During last year's event, the OG Steam Deck was given out to lucky winners every minute, as long as they were watching The Game Awards live, but it appears a different format will be in play this year, with the 1TB Steam Deck OLED as a prize.

Psycho Mantis, Solidus Snake, the spooky, metatextual boss fight with The Sorrow - Kojima's style transcends just visuals, and encapsulates a caricature of politics, history, and contemporary social issues that's instantly recognizable and purely subjective. But there's a new stealth game, by independent developer Tallboys, that gives even the strangest and most visionary moments in MGS a run for their money. Essentially, it's you versus a single guard.

Battle rifles are an interesting class of weapon in Modern Warfare 3; their slow rate of fire when compared to the assault rifle class means that they can be an unforgiving weapon for the novice, but if you manage to find the weapon setup that fits for you, these guns can dominate. The Modern Warfare 3 release date is finally here. One of the most devastating Modern Warfare 3 weapons we have used is the MTZ 762, and with this Modern Warfare MTZ 762 setup, we were able to take players down almost instantaneously - no matter the range.

There were 20 fresh-faced indie games highlighted in tonight's 90-odd-minute stream, and cor, there are some right old gems in here, too, with brand-new game announcements from the devs behind Genesis Noir, Kind Words and Tangle Tower to name just a few.

One of my personal highlights from tonight's Day Of The Devs Showcase, developers SFB Games have just announced they're making a sequel to their excellent detective puzzle game, Tangle Tower. Called The Mermaid's Tongue, this latest locked room mystery will see Detective Grimoire and his assistant Sally return for an altogether more watery adventure as they solve the strange murder of one Magnus Montuga, who's met their unfortunate demise after being seemingly spat out by a cursed cauldron that's never been opened.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Wednesday, December 6, 2023 12:00 PM  Pour one out for Mimimi Games today, readers. Despite announcing they were shutting up shop following the release of this year's fantastic Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew, today marks the grand finale for their stealth strategy masterpiece in the form of a new free Treasure Hunt update, and the release of their two paid expansions. Each brings a brand-new pirate to The Red Marley's undead crew, as well as their own half-dozen story missions to play through spread across islands old and new, and once you've begun each of their respective questlines, they're readily available to play in any of the game's regular plunderings, too. Mimimi have kept the identity of these pirates a secret until now, but after playing both DLCs for a big chunk of the last week, I'm confident in saying this is exactly the swansong Shadow Gambit deserves - with one of the expansions in particular bringing a poignant touch of coming full circle on Mimimi's work as a studio. Naturally, spoilers circle these waters like hungry sharks, but if you're resigned to such a fate, let's dive in below. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Wednesday, December 6, 2023 11:30 AM  Rockstar has released a 90-second GTA 6 trailer! Wowee! No seriously, ignoring my cynicism for a second, it does look really impressive. As I mentioned in our RPS reacts piece, I'm genuinely excited by the prospect of a renewed Vice City and you bet I'll be there for the inevitable five-minute narrated trailer that begins with a person saying, "Welcome to Vice City". There's no doubt Vice City is going to be dense and chaotic, going by all the twerking and the social media parodies of real life Florida folks. But really, I do hope that Rockstar doesn't just reserve next-gen's horsepower for wildness. I want some peace, some quiet, some innocuous suburbs to laze around in. That would be nice. |

Atlus shared new insights from Persona 3 Reload character designer Azusa Shimada about the new battle outfit for Yukari. Her new outfit is designed to reinforce the idea of Yukari being both a fashionable person and a cool fighter.
The A-line silhouette of her new jacket is intended to reinforce her aesthetic as an archer, explained Azusa. Furthermore, she wears her jacket in a casual manner, and pairs it with widely visible neck and chest accessories to emphasize the idea that she's a fashion-conscious person.
Azusa also said that he wanted to make her combat equipment, bow, and quiver look heavy. The reasoning behind this is so that she would convey the feeling of being a cool fighter, as much as she is cute and fashionable. In a similar fashion, Yukari's jacket is designed to flutter and move when she casts Wind elemental spells.
You can take a better look at the new Persona 3 Reload combat outfit for Yukari, and original Japanese commentary on it here:
Atlus previously shared some comments about the design for the battle outfit of the Persona 3 Reload main character, and Azusa said that he drew inspiration from biker jackets and military clothing.
Persona 3 Reload will come out for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC via Steam on February 2, 2024. Atlus recently released a new trailer focused on the battle system.

The VR version of Lego Bricktales is a perfect example of a game working better on a new platform than its original one. While I enjoyed playing it on a PS5, getting to actually zoom in on dioramas and build on virtual tables in my lap or on my coffee table is far more intuitive and fun.
We're an observer in Lego Bricktales VR. We watch from above as a young individual reunites with his grandfather to help restore a dilapidated amusement park. How? They work alongside a robot named Rusty that was rehabbed by aliens and go through portals to other areas to assist people in need. In so doing, they earn the Happiness Crystals necessary to clean up the place, get the mayor off Grandpa's back, and potentially make even more people happy.
Solving this crisis is a fairly simple affair. You go through portals to different regions inspired by Lego sets, like a jungle or city. When traversing the overworld, you move your minifig avatar around, perhaps collecting items, talking to people in need of assistance, or using Rusty's abilities to continue on your way. Though often the means of moving forward means using the power of building.
Building is truly the highlight of Lego Bricktales in VR. The game constantly tasks players with creating items to advance the story and proceed through areas. In some situations, it means creating bridges, staircases, or supports to grant you access to new areas. This also means a "testing" portion so you can ensure it is safe to put weight on things. You might also be matching existing structures, piecing together things, or building specific items to help move through spaces. There are often multiple right answers, and you also can get customization options to make these new creations look better in the dioramas you're exploring.
Remember how I said Lego Bricktales felt better suited to VR earlier? That building is exactly why. When you're going through these sections, you use the VR controller to actually pick up and place each brick. Because we now have a three dimensional field, which we can move at any time and basically have in our laps, we know exact positioning and can easily adjust every item. It felt much easier both to assemble items, as well as ensure that certain constructs were structurally sound. It's a luxury that I didn't have on the Switch, and it made the experience much more enjoyable.
The perspectives afforded by this being in VR also make it easier to appreciate the environments we're exploring. I found it easier to find collectibles, like hermit crabs or small animals, in stages due to being able to spin the whole build in my lap and really peer at it from above. The viewpoints are really fantastic. Plus having the pass-through option to allow it to seem like the dioramas are in your living room and in front of you is a fun perk. Though honestly, I used the mixed reality option to play while having something on in the background. The only frustration stems from needing to constantly shift and adjust the playfield to see different perspectives. It really isn't possible to just set it down and leave the diorama in one place for an extended period. Also, as good as it does look here, I did find it looked better on the PS5, so I feel like a bit of a sacrifice was made.
Lego Bricktales really works well in VR, and it is a lot of fun to play on the Quest 3. It really does feel like building is more fun when you're going hands-on with the headset's controllers to move each brick and go more hands-on, in a way, with the creations. Plus there is the feeling of each diorama and project being right in front of you, as though you were going through an actual set in your living room. It's one of the cozier and relaxed VR games I've played, and I appreciate this new approach to the adventure.
Lego Bricktales VR will come to the Meta Quest Pro, 2, and 3 on December 7, 2023.

While facing a boss, they are teleported to another area. This is Polus, and the crewmates then appear before them. The animation then continues with a brief clip of gameplay footage suggesting some of the crewmate playable characters could be a ghost and an imposter.
Here's a gallery of screenshots showing off how some of the various characters and the new stage will look once the DLC drops.
While Vampire Survivors is getting an Among Us crossover, Among Us just got an update with other games. It now has an Indie Cosmicube for people to buy with Beans.

Nosebleed Interactive and Wired Productions announced its laundromat and arcade management simulator Arcade Paradise is getting a VR version for Meta Quest headsets. It is "coming soon" to the systems, and the product page is already live.
The premise in Arcade Paradise is that players are tasked with working at a laundromat. You wash and dry people's clothing for them, while also tending to the place. However, in the back room you can set up an arcade. Profits from the arcade cabinets and laundry can be reinvested back into the business, allowing you access to new cabinets. There are 35 cabinets available to "buy" in-game, though DLC expanded the range of the original release, and these are playable minigames inspired by actual arcade games or other titles in various ways.
Here's the first trailer for the VR version of the game. It offers an idea of what to expect from the new approach to the title.
Arcade Paradise originally launched on consoles and PCs back in August 2022. After launch, additional cabinets were added as paid DLC. This included ones like the Streets of Rage-like Kung Fury: Street Rage or the Vostok Inc. Pinball cabinet.
Arcade Paradise VR is on the way and will be playable on the Meta Quest, Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest 3, and Meta Quest Pro. It is immediately available on the PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC.

HoYoVerse revealed that the 4.3 update for Genshin Impact will make two requested Artifacts and Expeditions quality of life changes. These will make it easier to sort or finish tasks.
When it comes to the Genshin Impact Artifacts, there will be new filtering and locking options. For example, you can sort by which set, then choose to search by lock state, level status, and if it is equipped. It will be easier to sort by set when in the equipping screen. It will also be possible to search and lock based on the main affix and minor affixes, so you could make sure ones that focus on attack or critical rates could be locked.
As for the Genshin Impact Expeditions, there will be two new buttons when you visit Katheryne at an Adventurers' Guild location. If everyone is dispatched, you can select the Claim All button to claim all of the items when these assignments are done and call folks back. Once you do, there will be a Dispatch Again button. Pressing that will send everyone out on the exact same Expeditions again.
Here's a gallery going over all of the new gifs HoYoVerse shared.
Genshin Impact is available for the PS4, PS5, PC, and mobile devices. The 4.3 update will arrive in December 2023, with the Special Program going over its new features on December 8, 2023.

Square Enix announced that it will collaborate with Tsutaya (the pottery brand, not the rental stores) on maki-e plates to commemorate the tenth anniversary of Final Fantasy XIV. The plates will be available to pre-order from December 12, 2023 until January 15, 2024.
Wajima-nuri is a type of Japanese lacquerware that differentiates itself from other lacquerware with the usage of multiple layers of urushi in the undercoat. Though the precise details of when this particular style of lacquerware came about, historians believe that the current version of it came about during the early Edo period. The reason why Square Enix and Tsutaya will work together to release wajima-nuri plates is to try and interest younger people in the ancient art.
There will be two wajima-nuri plates available for the Final Fantasy XIV collaboration. The first one focuses on Bahamut and the second references Meteion. The Bahamut plate costs 66,550 JPY ($451.75) and the Meteion plate costs 40,700 JPY ($276.30). Another Bahamut plate will be on display at the Final Fantasy XIV fan festival in 2024.
Though the original Final Fantasy XIV game came out in 2010, this 10th anniversary is actually referring to the current 2.0 version. The game was originally a critical and commercial failure. However, after Naoki Yoshida became the director and producer of Final Fantasy XIV, he revamped it and then relaunched it in 2013. It then went on to become one of Square Enix's most popular and profitable properties.
The Final Fantasy XIV 10th anniversary plates will come out after late March 2024. Final Fantasy XIV is readily available on the PS4, PS5, and Windows PC.

Lasengle uploaded a new trailer for Uesugi Kenshin, who will be a limited SSR Ruler in Fate/Grand Order. Other Servants on her banner are Berserkers Mori Nagayoshi and Nagakura Shinpachi.
Uesugi Kenshin is the SSR version of Nagao Kagetora, who was a free SR Lancer during the Gudaguda Final Honnoji 2019 event. For reference, Nagao Kagetora is the birth name of the famous Japanese war lord Uesugi Kenshin. Uesugi Kenshin's Noble Phantasm, Bitenhassou Shiranui, increases her Arts performance for one turn. It will then remove a single target's buffs, and then deal a powerful Arts attack. It will deal extra damage against enemies with the Man Attribute.
Like her Lancer counterpart, Nana Mizuki is the voice for Uesugi Kenshin. Mizuki is a singer and actress whose career started in 1997. Some of her more prominent roles include Fate from Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, Tamao in Shaman King, and Hinata in both Naruto and Boruto.
As for Uesugi Kenshin the actual person, he was a famous daimyo during the Sengoku period of Japan. He ruled over the Echigo province, which is around modern Niigata Prefecture. He had a rivalry with Takeda Shingen, who also appeared in Fate/Grand Order when the current Gudaguda Super Goryokaku event started in late November 2023. Due to his fame and exploits on the battlefield, he is a popular figure who has appeared in multiple video games and anime based on the Sengoku period.
Fate/Grand Order is readily available on mobile devices, with the Japanese server currently running the Uesugi Kenshin banner. The banner will end on December 19, 2023.
