     Intel CPUs just got schooled, but not by AMD this time

Intel and AMD may have been the two most dominant forces in PC processors in recent years, but they're far from the only options now, even when it comes to running Windows. Qualcomm just proved that point with force, showing that its new Snapdragon X Elite CPUs are over 50% faster than the latest Intel Core Ultra chips in some tests.

The battle for the best gaming CPU could be about to get a lot more interesting with the arrival of laptops and other systems based on Qualcomm's new processors, if Qualcomm's benchmark claims are truly representative. AMD and Intel might be ruling the roost right now, but there's no guarantee that will last forever.

     Nvidia DLSS 3.7 update arrives with more upscaling options

Features like Frame Generation and Ray Reconstruction have tended to define major Nvidia DLSS updates, complete with large amounts of fanfare, but other updates arrive regularly too only with far less pomp. DLSS 3.7 is one such stealthy update, with early reports suggesting it could greatly improve upscaling quality thanks to a new preset.

     Ex GTA dev finally explains one of San Andreas' biggest mysteries

There are a lot of reasons to be excited about Grand Theft Auto 6. The return to Vice City. Continuing the story from GTA 5. Finally finding out first-hand what Rockstar has been working on since the launch of Red Dead Redemption 2. But I'm also looking forward to the oddities, eccentricities, and the strange sandbox game surrealism that's bound to be buried inside GTA 6. You'll likely remember the Moon size trick from GTA 3 and Vice City. Likewise, the beating heart inside Grand Theft Auto 4's Statue of Happiness, and the ghosts haunting various spots around Los Santos. Now, one former Rockstar developer lifts the lid on one of the weirdest random moments in GTA San Andreas.

     V Rising system requirements

What are the V Rising system requirements? We're nearing the full launch of V Rising and after a meteoric rise back during its initial early access phase, we're excited to see how far the game has come.

It's worth noting that throughout its early access development, the V Rising system requirements have been subject to change, but are now effectively fixed beyond a major graphical overhaul being announced out of nowhere. A contender for one of the best crafting games on PC, V Rising will be looking to recapture its fanbase with the official launch, but a recent price hike may turn some players away.

But which of them are the best? We collate the best Star Wars games from the new to the old so you know what to play when you hanker for space adventures.

From the deep, philosophical wrangling of Knights of the Old Republic to the breathless adrenaline rush of Pod Racing in Episode I: Racer, we've managed to whittle down the huge amount of Star Wars games to bring you the best of the best. Even a half-witted, scruffy-looking Nerf Herder can appreciate that these are some of the best PC games ever made.

     What is the current and next Genshin Impact banner?

Genshin Impact banners rotate every few weeks on a precise schedule, and we always know what to expect thanks to regular updates from HoYoverse. The developer of the anime game always keeps its fans in the loop with regular livestreams and social media updates, so you can plan in advance where you want to spend your hard-earned primogems.

With a two to three-week turnaround for banners, the roster of Genshin Impact characters is always changing, and the free PC game regularly introduces two new characters to wish for. Every limited-time character banner - or event wish - contains a five-star character and three four-star characters with increased drop rates. There's also a Genshin Impact weapon banner, which runs alongside each character banner and changes weapons every update.

     The best platform games on PC 2024

What are the best platform games on PC? Back in the '90s and early '00s, there were countless platformers for console gamers, while the PC had a reputation as a wasteland for this particular genre. Thankfully, this stigma has lessened since the days of Commander Keen, and we owe that in large part to the explosion of indies that have flooded onto digital platforms over the past decade, meaning our fair platform is now bursting at the seams with solid platform games.

The best platform games have garnered a reputation as requiring mechanical mastery and sublime timing to get into, but developers continue to push the genre forward by introducing gameplay elements from the best Metroidvania games. Platforming can also be a staple mechanic in some of the best story games, as demonstrated in releases like Celeste and Ori and the Blind Forest. Here are the best platform games you can play on your PC right now.

I like vampires. I like survival games. So, shock to no one, I really like V Rising.

     Last Epoch permanently bans accounts due to new real-money exploit

Last Epoch accounts that have engaged in gold duplication and exploits connected to real-money trading have been permanently banned, as developer Eleventh Hour cracks down on bad actors misusing the in-game economy. A new rival to the likes of Diablo 4 and Path of Exile, Last Epoch has enjoyed a huge amount of success since launching into 1.0 in February. Some players, however, have been able to duplicate in-game gold for the purposes of trading it for real money, a behavior which Eleventh Hour says will result in a permanent account ban, as it outlines new measures to combat exploits tied to the virtual economy.

Skyrim has endured all these years partly because it's a great game, partly because Bethesda keeps releasing it on hitherto unknown gaming platforms, but also because it's powered by a vibrant and creative modding community.

Thankfully, Starfield mod support has technically been available since before the Starfield release date rolled around thanks to early access. If you're playing Starfield Game Pass, you may experience some difficulty installing all of the mods we've listed below. For maximum compatibility, you're going to want the Steam version of the game.

     Beyond Good and Evil 2 release date estimate, story, and latest news

When is the Beyond Good and Evil 2 release date? Beyond Good and Evil 2 was originally announced back in 2009 before it disappeared for a number of years. But at E3 2017, it made a surprise return with an impressive cinematic trailer during Ubisoft's press conference. Here's the thing: we've barely seen anything about the game since. So what's going on?

Much has changed about the project since Beyond Good and Evil 2 was first announced. Former creative director Michel Ancel left Ubisoft in 2020 to spend time on a wildlife sanctuary, and while the team he leaves behind continues with the development of the action game, it's without his influence. As such, there's no telling just when and in what state we'll see Beyond Good and Evil 2 next. Below, you'll find all the information we have on this upcoming game so far.

Growth is universally a good thing, otherwise all those nice, dead-eyed men in suits wouldn't keep saying it was. You can't just lie about growth, that's a business crime.

The Elder Scrolls Online is the elephant in the room where discussions of The Elder Scrolls 6 are concerned, though calling it an elephant is obviously missing the opportunity for a banger lore joke – "dragon", perhaps, or even "Numidium"? Launched back in 2014 after seven years in development, ESO's hybrid of deceptively single-player-ish Elder Scrolls presentation with MMO fixtures attracted a lukewarm response, initially. "At its best The Elder Scrolls Online looks like a faithful addition to the lore," intoned Brendy in our own launch impressions. "At its worst it is a derivative and uninventive anachronism."

ZeniMax Online have made big strides with the game over the years, however - binning off monthly subscriptions and introducing a "level-free" format in the One Tamriel update in 2016. ESO has also swelled and sprouted steadily as a work of geography and history, with major chapters introducing areas hitherto only mentioned in dusty collectible tomes, or creatively reintroducing locations from the single player series – the forthcoming Gold Road expansion, out in June 2024, takes us to the West Weald in Cyrodiil, an area last seen in The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion.
