At the end of its life, the Switch is still getting new accessories. Nintendo announced the handheld hybrid console will get a dedicated charging station for Joy-Con controllers in the fall. The timing is so strange it feels like it might have something to do with the Switch 2.

     Splitgate 2 is real, lands 2025, and definitely isn't a hero shooter

The original Splitgate was a fantastic free-to-play portal-based shooter that filled the hole left by Halo Infinite's less-than-stellar launch. Sadly, after a strong initial run, developer 1047 Games ceased working on it in late 2022 to focus on a new project. After teasing an announcement for the past few days, the team has finally revealed its next project. Surprise surprise, it's Splitgate 2.

     Black Flag is one of the best Assassin's Creed games ever, and 70% off

Assassin's Creed Black Flag could be considered something of a trendsetter for the Ubisoft stealth RPG series. One of the first games to turn to the more fantastical, worldwide settings that games like Valhalla and Odyssey now comfortably occupy, building on the foundations that Assassin's Creed 3 set down by initially moving away from the stories of Ezio Auditore and towards the Kenway family.

     Two brilliant new RPGs hit Game Pass as day-one additions today

It's fairly common for Game Pass to bring multiple new games to its service on day one over the course of a month, but it's rare to see it happen on a single day. Well, that's exactly what's going down today, as Thursday, July 18 sees two very different RPGs hit PC Game Pass at launch: Flintlock The Siege of Dawn, and Dungeons of Hinterberg.

     Once Human server status - is Once Human down?

Are the Once Human servers down? You can achieve a lot in Once Human if you have the right mindset: building a home - a safe space - is paramount. The eldritch monstrosities are closing in from all sides, and having a place away from the weirdness is vital. The one thing you can't fight, though, are the Once Human servers. If they're down, then you're stuck twiddling your thumbs until the issue is resolved.

The Once Human release date is upon us, and the free PC game appears to be running smoothly, with only a few minor hiccups at launch. We've created this page to show you the Once Human server status, so you can figure out whether any connection issues you have are yours, or server-side.

     This new SSD is great for Steam Deck, but better for the ROG Ally X

Micron has just unveiled the Crucial P310, which it claims is the world's fastest 2230-format SSD. This extra speed won't help when it comes to a Steam Deck SSD upgrade, but the Asus ROG Ally X will benefit, and there are other factors that still make this drive a worthwhile choice for any mobile device needing an SSD upgrade.

The Steam Deck has long held the crown as the best handheld gaming PC - whether in its original Steam Deck LCD form or its updated Steam Deck OLED form - but all variants of the device can benefit from an SSD upgrade. The maximum capacity of the handheld is 1TB, but lower-priced options come with less storage space, with the cheapest version having just a tiny 64GB of capacity.

     No Man's Sky soars again as new update prompts biggest discount yet

The grand redemption of No Man's Sky remains one of those moments I'll always cherish. From a promising reveal to widespread launch disappointment, Hello Games continued to improve and polish its creation over the years, slowly winning back more and more fans. At this point, it comfortably sits among the best space games on Steam, outpacing the likes of Starfield for sheer depth and immersion and sitting among big hitters like Elite Dangerous and Everspace for its fantastic sense of place and the sense of exploration.

     AMD could be cooking up three new Radeon GPUs

AMD could be about to release three new GPUs, according to a filing from Acer that details the names of the models in its graphics card range. Now, before you get your hopes up, the names of these new AMD Radeon GPUs suggest they will be based on the existing RDNA 3 architecture, rather than the forthcoming RDNA 4 architecture, but it looks as though AMD could be filling out its range of GPUs further.

So far, AMD has released nine RDNA 3 desktop gaming GPUs, some of which are among the best graphics cards you can buy right now. However, this filing suggests that there's room for a three new mid-range models. In all three cases, the new GPUs have the same model numbers as existing graphics cards, but without an XT suffix.

     Grab a free copy of Flintlock The Siege of Dawn, thanks to MSI

If you're hoping to get your hands on a free copy of Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn to try out this new souls-lite game, then you're in luck. MSI is giving away copies to anyone who buys one of its Z790 Max series motherboards, or the MAG Z790 Tomahawk Max WiFi.

On paper, the MSI Z790 series is among the best gaming motherboards you could spend your money on, and if you're already in the process of upgrading or building a new gaming PC, getting a free game is a nice bonus. In our Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn review, we called the game "a powder keg of potential", praising its originality and attention to detail.

     New cyberpunk game Nobody Wants to Die fills the hole left by CDPR

In Nobody Wants to Die, the question isn't just who committed a crime, but when. Under the rain-soaked neon lights of far-future New York, it's up to hard-boiled detectives like James Karra to pick up the police's slack and keep the peace. If you're getting heavy L.A. Noire vibes from this so far, you're not wrong. But anyone who misses CDPR, Cyberpunk 2077, and Night City will also feel at home here, as the breakout futuristic thriller racks up glowing Steam reviews.

A good immersive sim, by its very nature, offers myriad varied approaches to solving problems. And yet, I find myself wanting to get hyper-specific when writing about the action of Corpus Edax, because it has an incredibly gratifying metal pipe sound, whether you're stealthy wrapping it around the back of a blissfully unaware fool's noggin, or lobbing it directly at their knee caps. In fact - although the game does have a delightful array of classic verbs, along with a few surprises - many of them are simply conducive to a stirring round of fisticuffs, to write my most British sentence of the week.

Take me back to the soft blue light, Conscript. It's safe there, in the save room. No body-armoured heavies with trench raiding clubs. No tunnels choked with sickly, mushy-pea green gas. No rats feasting on my ankles, occasionally inflicting a disease that halves my health bar. "Christ, they're sending runners now?" the rifleman asks as I hoof south from Fort Souville after a gruelling trench defence whittles down my resources to a busted fightin' spade and a handful of pistol bullets.

I've been fumbling for a grasp on Bokeh's skull-splitting horror game Slitterhead since I first heard the words "brought to you by Keiichiro Toyama, former designer of Silent Hill, Siren and Gravity Rush". Thanks to a new interview, I now have a proper description of the relationship between protagonist and antagonist. Friends, Romans and countrymen: this is a game about a war between two sets of body-stealing monsters, waged in the neon shadows of a fictional East Asian city. It all puts me strongly in mind of a certain John Carpenter movie about squelchy goings-on in Antarctica.

I've tried visual novel games in the past, like A Space For The Unbound and Hatoful Boyfriend. And what's frustrating is that I just don't get on with them, despite knowing that they can convey brilliant stories through all sorts of interesting cuts and shots and whatnot. I'm sorry to report that certain stories won't grab me if they're not ticking along at just the right pace or if they don't pull me in straight away. I'm a needy soul, someone who demands immediacy and a special emotional sauce.

Until Then is, without a doubt, the only visual novel-y game I've truly enjoyed. In fact, I'd say I've more than enjoyed it - I think it's superb so far. The teens that drive this story are written with an authenticity I've not encountered before, and the 3D interwoven with the 2D adds some surprising - besides the literal - depth.

Hololive Treasure Mountain

BeXide has revealed that it will release a new Hololive casual puzzle game starring Houshou Marine. The game's title will be Hololive Treasure Mountain, and it will appear on PC via Steam under the holo Indie label. The company listed different but closely related release windows in each region, as it mentioned Summer 2024 for Japan and Q3 2024 for the West.

This game will have the player help Houshou Marine throw chibi heads of other Hololive Vtubers onto an island. Stacking the same characters will make the head grow bigger with higher score acquisition.

The ultimate objective will be to rack a high score and record it in the global leaderboards. The game will end when a head falls off the island and gets picked up by Gawr Gura. The overall gameplay system looks very similar to Fruit Mountain, which was also made by BeXide.

BeXide has also uploaded a Japanese promotional trailer for the game on its YouTube channel:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WQhFRdTcVU

Hololive Treasure Mountain will be available for PC via Steam in Summer 2024 in Japan and Q3 2024 in the West. The game will have Japanese voiceovers from the original Vtubers with support for subtitles in Japanese, English, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese. BeXide will announce the game's final release date at a later time.

The post Hololive Treasure Mountain Will Appear on PCs appeared first on Siliconera.

HoYoVerse has released the drip marketing for Moze, who will be a playable 4-star character in Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.5. He'll be a Lightning Hunt character.

In lore, Moze is a Shadow Guard of the Yaoqing, with a reticent personality and a tendency to act on his own. As a Shadow Guard, he is an expert in gathering information and is very good at stealth. His targets don't even know he's there until he appears to assassinate them. He's also obsessed with tidiness and cleanliness. As a resident of the Yaoqing, he hails from the same Xianzhou ship as fellow 2.5 character Feixiao, as well as upcoming character Jiaoqiu.

Moze's English voice actor is Chris Niosi. Niosi's previous roles include Dezel in Tales of Zestiria, Reigen in Mob Psycho 100, and Tetsuya in Dr. Stone. Shogo Sakata will voice Moze in Japanese. Sakata's previous roles include Aki in Chainsaw Man, Usato in The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic, and the Sensei in Blue Archive. Finally, his Chinese voice actor is Huang Jinze. Huang's previous roles include Stainless and Ayerscarpe in Arknights, as well as Shindo in Horimiya.

Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.5 is readily available on the PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. Moze will appear as a playable 4-star character in Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.5.
