     Palworld will run on Apple Vision Pro, but it takes some effort

We've already seen attempts to get Palworld working in VR thanks to the UEVR mod, but now we're seeing it working on the Apple Vision Pro, a device not marketed as a gaming-focused system. The problem is that it might not be worth the hassle right now.

While yet to establish itself as one of the best VR headsets, the Apple Vision Pro is not inherently a gaming device, but that doesn't mean it can't play games. One user got Palworld working on it thanks to using a clever combination of Steam Link and a Bluetooth controller.

     New strategy game set in Hell blends Civilization 6 with pure horror

Civilization 6 may be the biggest, most in-depth strategy game around, but like Cities Skylines 2, Crusader Kings 3, and many of its other contemporaries, it's missing one thing: pure, unbridled, demonic horror. You can conquer nations, raise (and raze) armies, and - if you're so inclined - cultivate a brutal dictatorship, but where's the fire and brimstone? Where's the sulphur? Where's the gigantic swarm of apocalyptic locusts? If you want to be a real monster, a new strategy and 4X game, which serves as a full remake to an underground PC classic, is soon to hit Steam. Designed to stoke your paranoia, bring out your deviousness, and transform you into a scheming Machiavellian genius, this is Civilization in Hell.

     The best MMO and MMORPGs to play in 2024

What is the best MMORPG on PC? If you're wondering, those oft-used letters represent the words Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game and refer to games where thousands of players come together in the same world.

Maybe it's all of them.

Ultimately, the deciding factor for the best MMORPGs on PC largely comes down to personal preference, so with that in mind, here's our list of the top MMOs currently alive and kicking. You're sure to find something that will swallow up entire days at a time, and many of these entries can also be considered some of the best PC games around.

     AMD FSR 3 is coming to save Starfield for budget gamers

If you're still struggling to hit a stable 60fps in Starfield, the next game update looks set to be huge, if you have a graphics card compatible with AMD FSR 3. A Steam Beta is going live soon, with a full rollout planned shortly after.

Chances are, if you already have one of the best graphics cards, performance in Starfield isn't a major concern. However, getting Bethesda's space opera to work on older GPUs has been difficult, but AMD is here to try and save the day.

     Asus just gave you another reason to buy an OLED gaming monitor

One of the biggest ongoing reasons why OLED gaming monitors have yet to really take off - outside of them being expensive - is that buyers quite rightly still have major concerns about OLED burn-in. However, while it can't entirely fix the issue, Asus has reduced the concern for buyers of its latest displays by offering a two-year warranty that includes damage to the screen from burn-in.

The Asus OLED burn-in warranty update covers the likes of the company's upcoming PG34WCDM and PG32UCDM gaming monitors that it announced at CES 2024, and it means buyers can be safe in the knowledge that any problem with the display via normal use will now be covered within this period.

     Is Roblox shutting down in 2024?

Is Roblox shutting down? There always seems to be a rumor that Roblox is going to shut down. Let's get one thing clear early on: anyone who tells you that Roblox is shutting down is incorrect. Roblox Corporation has tweeted confirmation that the game isn't going anywhere, so you can relax and get back to playing your favorite games.

However, if you are curious to know where this rumor originated and how it got so big, we've done a little digging to uncover one of the sources of the speculation. With Roblox achieving a lifetime revenue of over $1 billion and over $70 million in payouts to creators, it would seem utterly ludicrous for the game to shut down. While the game is still up and running, check out some of the best Roblox games and our Anime Champions codes, Blox Fruits codes, and Project Slayers codes guides to snag yourself some freebies.

We've seen the worlds of anime and PC hardware collide before, but this latest crossover is genuinely stunning. An MSI Suprim X Nvidia RTX 4090 graphics card has been spotted sporting an Honkai Star Rail Ruan Mei design.

MSI isn't the first company to look at making an anime RTX 4090 graphics card, with the Asus Evangelion lineup also making a splash last year. However, this Honkai Star Rail edition of one of the best graphics card options has a snappy design. I would be far happier with this Ruan Mei design in my gaming PC, thanks to its subtler design and color palette.

Looking at these figures, we can glean all kinds of information, like where you sit against the average player, as well as how much time and energy you've put into the FPS.

Like all competitive FPS games, Valorant has a couple of different ways it measures ranking progress and the overall rating of players against each other.

Here's everything you need to know about Valorant ranks, the current rank distribution, and competitive play.

This isn't confirmation that a third single player Last Of Us game is in development, with Druckmann reiterating comments from this time last year that Naughty Dog feel no obligation to continue the tale. Nonetheless, "it does feel like there's probably one more chapter to this story." Will we ever really see the last of The Last Of Us?

Gundam SEED 2024 poll

Sunrise has opened the Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Series GP2024 poll where fans can vote for their favorite character and Mobile Suit or Armor. The poll features 127 characters and 102 mechs from one of the popular Gundam sub-series. It also includes characters and Mobile Suits that debuted in Gundam SEED Freedom. The latter movie launched in Japanese theaters in late January 2024 and grossed over a billion yen within the first three days.

Despite the numbers mentioned, this poll only features content from the three mainline anime entries: the inaugural 2002 show, the 2004 sequel Gundam SEED Destiny, and the new Gundam SEED Freedom movie. The Cosmic Era universe also has numerous side-story entries, such as the Astray series, the Gundam SEED Eclipse manga, and the 2006 net animation Gundam SEED C.E. 73: Stargazer. None of the content from the latter titles appears in this poll.

There are two methods people can use to participate in the poll. They can register a vote worth 10 points directly on the webpage once per day for each category. Those who have an X account can also post tweets that will add a point each.

After the poll has closed, Sunrise will produce an illustration featuring the top-ranked character and Mobile Suit/Armor. It will also hand out ten cards with the illustration to ten lucky X account owners who voted on the platform, are residing in Japan, and can respond to a future Direct Message from the official account.

The Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Series GP2024 poll will remain open until February 25, 2024. Sunrise will announce the poll results in March 2024.

Nijisanji Announces Selen Tatsuki Graduation

Anycolor announced the graduation of Nijisanji EN Vtuber Selen Tatsuki. She is no longer with the agency effective immediately, with the company citing breaches of contract and behavior online as the reasons.

Here's the official announcement from social media. In the statement, the company alleged it has been warning Selen since May 2023 about violations of the Activity Rules for its Vtubers. It also cited the release of the cover of the song "Last Cup of Coffee" and her behavior after its was privated as one of these violations. It also noted that February 5, 2024 is her official last day, her social media is now private, her YouTube membership is closed, and merchandise sales will gradually end.

https://twitter.com/NIJISANJI_World/status/1754459182412222481

This comes after a series of incidents that started in December 2023. First, after investing her own money and working on a cover and music video of LilyPichu's "Last Cup of Coffee," Anycolor pulled it. Selen then advised fans to reupload it separately. 

Following that announcement, Anycolor noted that the Nijisanji EN Vtuber would be on a break. A post was made on her social media account noting she was in the hospital. She was then released just after 2024 began. However, after that the company announced she would not be at the Anime Impulse convention as planned.

Selen Tatsuki joined the organization back in July 2021. She debuted at the same time as Petra Gurin and Rosemi Lovelock. She was known for playing games, especially titles in the FPS genre.

Viewing Cages provide extra Pal storage in Palworld When players want to promote their Pals all the way to four stars through the Pal Essence Condenser, they start to see that despite the 16 boxes of Pal storage, they need even more. To promote a Pal to four stars, they need 64 extra Pals of that species, which takes up a considerable amount of space. This combined with a potential breeding strategy, a player may find themselves out of storage pretty soon.
