January 26, 2024: We looked for new Murder Mystery 2 codes.

What are the newest Murder Mystery codes? Roblox games rarely throw up an intense experience as is offered by MM2, a game where you could be saddled with one of three roles; the murderer, a bystander, or the sheriff. The murderer has to, well, murder. The bystanders have to avoid the wrath of said murderer, and the sheriff has to figure out, and eliminate, the bad person. Sound familiar?

This Roblox game is more cerebral than most, which means that while you'll rely on your wits most of the time. Still, it never hurts to have a helping hand in the form of some freebies via MM2 codes. If you're after other gifts, Blade Ball codes shouldn't go ignored. We also have Project Mugetsu codes and Blox Fruits codes that can help you grind those long-tail adventure games.

What are the new Pet Simulator 99 codes? If you're extremely lucky (and timely), getting a bunch of free gems in Big Games' latest pet collecting game can be as easy as typing a few letters into a box.

Pet Simulator 99 is the third Pet Simulator Roblox game Preston and his team have put out. Though it isn't out to replace Pet Simulator X codes directly, it will be the one getting the big updates from now on. If leaving your old collection behind doesn't sound fun to you, consider checking out Blade Ball codes or Blox Fruits codes instead.

Thanks to wider screens, higher resolutions, and improved refresh rates, you can enjoy your favorite games with a level of clarity, smoothness, and immersion that you've never seen before.

Display technologies have come a long way over the past several years, with Micro LED and OLED options finally arriving on the market. These technologies finally mean it's possible to enjoy a great HDR experience while you're sitting at your gaming desk, but be prepared to cough up some cash for this premium experience.

For everyone else, IPS and VA panels remain as reliable as ever. Now, resolutions and refresh rates previously reserved for the higher end of the space are readily available at much more reasonable prices.

To help people prepare for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Square Enix shared a FFVII Remake story recap. The video is three minutes long and covers the major events and characters from the first entry in this new trilogy.

Things begin by showing Midgar, the setting of the first game. It shows how Mako is used to power the metropolis. Then, it shifts to show Avalanche, with Barret, Cloud, and Tifa working with them, to take down the Mako Reactors and fight back during the environmental crisis. Cloud meets Aerith as a result of this, as well as gets a Shinra target on his back. It then fast forwards to the dropping of the Sector 7 Pillar, destruction of a part of the city, Aerith's abduction, and return of Sephiroth.

Tekken 8 Ghost AI

I have never claimed to be good at Tekken. My first brush with the series was when I was in middle school and came upon a Tekken 3 arcade cabinet at a local amusement park. I converted the small amount of money my parents gave me for souvenirs and lunch into rolls of quarters to continue playing against other people who congregated at that single machine. And despite losing almost every bout, I loved playing Tekken.

Screenshot by Siliconera

Having had the opportunity to play Tekken 8 ahead of launch, I got a sample of what the game would offer. This included its Arcade Quest mode, which featured Ghost AI battles. Already fascinated by this and what it could mean to help players spot their own weaknesses and strengths, I immediately went to unlock this mode.

For those who don't know, the Ghost AI battles in Tekken 8 are you basically playing against yourself. The more you play against your Ghost, the more it learns and replicates your behaviors. Which is a great learning tool, in my opinion! As I continued to play, it quickly spotted one of my more immediate weaknesses as a player: My stubbornness and unwillingness to block.

I play many games with the mentality of "kill it before it kills you." I operate on this logic for almost anything — League of Legends, Final Fantasy, you name it. If I can do more damage than my opponent, I will absolutely try because, in my eyes, the best defense is a strong offense. And this has translated in the way that I play Tekken. At any opening, I will dive in on the offensive. Considering newcomer Victor is my main, it suits my style well.

Screenshot by Siliconera

But there's one problem. I just don't know how to block properly or side-step. Granted, I haven't touched Tekken 7 since it was released. But my Ghost AI immediately made it clear that if I wasn't going to block, I wouldn't have a real chance against any opponent, and nothing is more humbling than kicking your own ass.

As soon as a match would start, my Ghost AI would dive forward, knocking me into an air combo and finishing up with one of Tekken 8's new Heat Moves, smashing me into the ground only to air juggle me again and kill me. I was genuinely surprised at how competent the Ghost AI was, in fact it was so humbling that I was forced to forego my usual playstyle and learn how to block.

I believe the Ghost AI feature in Tekken 8 has already made me a better player, even if I still reflexively go on the offensive. But at least I now know how to read my opponent better (even if it is just myself) and improve. And you know what, I consider that a win.

Tekken 8 is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC.

Stardew Valley 1.6 Out in 2024, 'Larger in Scope Than Originally Planned'

There's a new update on Stardew Valley 1.6 from Eric "Concerned Ape" Barone. It is both going to be bigger than expected and it is now in the bug testing phase ahead of a 2024 release

There's no release window for this Stardew Valley update yet. However, this announcement does mean it is closer to release. Barone noted that from now all that's left is this "polishing" portion. 

Here's the official announcement going over the 1.6 patch's progress. 

https://twitter.com/ConcernedApe/status/1750962107682857258

In follow-up replies, Barone offered more details. The first was saying, "yes absolutely" when asked if it would appear in 2024. When clarifying things later, the developer noted it will be on PC first, but there will be hopefully a smaller gap between releases on other platforms. 

Another reply commenting on the size of this update noted, "Hard to compare, because 1.5 was all about a big NEW area, whereas 1.6 is about adding more to the old stuff in the game, with a lot of little things."

Some of the previous social media posts covered things people can expect in the game. There will be a new festival and people can use a Big Chest for storage.

KLab and Palworld Developer Pocketpair Working on New Mobile Game

KLab announced it is working on a "hybrid-casual" mobile game with the Palworld developer Pocketpair. There's no release date yet.

All details about this new project are quite scarce. It is going to be a mobile title. The official announcement specifically referenced smartphones. Another part of the announcement noted the goal will be to "generate revenue from both in-game purchases and advertisements." It's unknown if this will be based on an original IP or one of Pocketpair's other titles.

However, KLab did confirm this collaboration has been in the works for a while. During its reveal, it noted that things kicked off in 2020. As a reminder, some of KLab's games include Bleach: Brave Souls, Captain Tsubasa: Dream Team, and Lapis RE:LiGHTs. As for Pocketpair, it is also known for AI: Art Imposter and Craftopia. In addition, it also has Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse entering early access in 2024.

There's no social media update on Palworld sales for today yet. The last one arrived on January 25, 2024 and confirmed it hit eight million. 

Palworld is in early access for the Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC. There's no release window yet for the new KLab and Palworld developer Pocketpair mobile game.

     Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth Ichiban DolphinLike a Dragon: Infinite Wealth has a fairly manageable trophy/achievement list as long as you're willing to grind, but there are a few minor trophies that can be frustrating to get if you don't already know what to do. Somewhere Over the Rainbow is one of these achievements. In order to get the Somewhere Over the Rainbow trophy in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, all you have to do is photograph a rainbow in the skies of Hawaii. It sounds simple enough, but the weather is completely random in Infinite Wealth and the rainbow doesn't always appear when it should. Also, you won't be able to see it from everywhere in Hawaii, so you'll need to be in the right place at the right time. Infinite Wealth Somewhere Over the Rainbow Trophy Guide Rainbows appear after it rains in Hawaii. Rain occurs randomly when exploring Honolulu, but it doesn't last for very long and there's no way to force the weather to change. Since a rainbow only...

     Like A Dragon Ichiban Kasuga CloseupLike a Dragon: Infinite Wealth lets you rock out to classic SEGA songs from games like Persona, Sonic, Shin Megami Tensei, and Hastune Miku: Colorful Stage while exploring Hawaii and Japan. You'll need to find Soundtrack CDs containing these songs before you can add them to your playlist, though. Most of them can be obtained as rewards for Infinite Wealth's wide array of minigames like Crazy Delivery and Sicko Snap, while others can be found in suitcases tucked away in hidden corners of Honolulu City, Isezaki Ijincho, and Kamurocho. Some are unfortunately locked behind expensive DLC purchases as well — notably the fan-favorite karaoke tracks — but there are still a ton of catchy tunes available in the base game. Where to Find Every Soundtrack CD in Infinite Wealth There are 64 Soundtrack CDs available to collect in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. We've tracked down most of them, but a few are still missing from our collection. Check back soon...

     Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth Ichiban Saeko DateThe first chapter of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth sees Ichiban and Saeko going on a romantic date, but Ichiban and the boys don't have the slightest idea of how to impress a woman. It's up to you to choose the best date options, but do the choices even matter? Ultimately, your choices for the date with Sa-chan won't affect the story or anything like that. The outcome of the date will always remain the same regardless of what you choose, but Ichiban's personality stats will increase in different ways depending on what you go with. Personality stats are important for unlocking new Jobs and improving Ichiban's skills, so the date is a great way to get a headstart on his development. Nanba vs Adachi Choices Screenshot: PC Invasion When preparing for the date, Nanba and Adachi will present you with opposing strategies that will develop Ichiban's personality in different ways.

     Alpha Lucky And Fusion Pal Types In Palworld ExplainedPalworld has 137 Pals at present, a bit less than the 151 generation one of Pokémon had. With that in mind, we scoured the internet to get a feel for what everyone's favorite Pals might be, and some clear favorites have to have emerged among the lot. Here are the 12 most popular Pals in Palworld. The 12 favorite Pals in Palworld While we're going in reverse order, some of these were ties, so one Pal being below another doesn't necessarily mean they had fewer votes. With that in mind, these were the twelve winners: 12. Maraith Image: Pocket Pair, Inc. I haven't encountered this spooky, ominous, ghostly will-o-the-wisp creature myself, but given it has the same color scheme as the best Pokémon of all time, I can understand the appeal. While the lime green eyes don't match the color scheme as well as that yellow, there's also something very eerie and unsettling about such a bright color on a dark palette. ItR...
