PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 7:50 AM What are the best space games on PC in 2025? Featuring the biggest Steam games, like Kerbal Space Program, and the best free games, such as Eve Online, these are the most sensational space epics around. With so many options, trying to pick out the best intergalactic adventures is a galaxy-sized question. Developers have been churning out space adventures since the '70s, and with everyone getting excited about Jupiter and with Kickstarter and crowdfunding allowing studios to strike out alone, we're currently just a teensy bit obsessed with what's beyond our little blue and green marble. While we wait for E.T. to return our numerous missed calls, let's kill time by playing some amazing space games in some of the best games on PC.

The Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 Dex is a lightweight esports mouse, sporting a bold new shape to help it feel more comfortable in-hand compared to its ambidextrous sibling, the base Superlight 2. We have the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 selected as one of the best gaming mice, specifically as a wireless ultralight option. In our Superlight 2 Dex hands-on preview from last year, we praised its impressive specs and the subtlety of the new, ergonomic shell that Logitech has designed.

PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 7:18 AM Somehow, Terraria 1.4.5 keeps getting bigger. The long-awaited 'final update' for one of the best-selling games of all time is creeping gradually towards us. But developer Re-Logic hasn't left us hanging. The end of the month means the Terraria State of the Game for May 2025, and with it come fresh 1.4.5 spoilers. This time, we've got two new weapons that should make the early game feel a lot more dynamic, and also prove particularly welcome for those who enjoy modes such as Skyblock.

PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 7:58 AM May 30, 2025 - F1 25 has not launched worldwide, after a few days in early access. We've added more details to our setup guide. What's the best F1 25 Australia setup? The race Down Under is the first race you'll play once more, which means you need a good setup to increase your chances of getting the maximum number of points possible. Whether you're creating your own Formula 1 team in My Team or are trying out the new season of Braking Point, the Australia Grand Prix is one of the first you'll play. As you might expect, the setup required for a track like Australia differs drastically from the likes of Monaco in F1 25. The racing game is one of the most intricate in the genre, with various aspects changing each and every year. We also have a F1 25 setups guide hub for help on other races on the calendar.

PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 7:11 AM If the original Red Dead Redemption has earned a place in gaming history, it's because of its mournful atmosphere, arresting open world, and gut-punch ending. When you think of Rockstar's revisionist western, you think of John Marston, that first ride into Mexico, and the 'gunfight' in front of the old barn. But RDR 1's multiplayer offering was a real blast; those weighty shooting and cover mechanics made for some great online deathmatches. With GTA 6 in full swing, much to the dismay of RDR 2 fans, Rockstar has shifted all of its focus away from Red Dead Online. However, one ambitious modder is trying to bring back the original game's multiplayer modes. MORE FROM PCGAMESN: GTA 6 release date, Best western games, Best story games |
PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 7:00 AM May 30, 2025 F1 25's early access period is now over and the game is available for everyone. What's the best F1 25 Saudi Arabia setup? While this race weekend has only been part of the Formula 1 calendar for a few years, it's one of the biggest fan-favorites of the first half of the season. Not only is it a good spectacle, but it's also one of the most challenging in the game. Therefore, your setup for Saudi Arabia in F1 25 needs to be altered from what you used for the likes of Japan and China. This year's racing game introduced some new mechanics you need to get used to, and also means that the setups that'll give you the best chance of scoring points are different to last year's game.

PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 7:14 AM What are the best Black Ops 6 loadouts? In theory, you're on a level playing field with everyone you come across in Call of Duty Black Ops 6; you all have access to the same weapons, attachments, and perks. It might not always feel that way, though, with weapons flowing in and out of the meta with each new patch. We've done the research, put in the hard yards, and figured out the best Black Ops 6 loadouts. A new entry in the Call of Duty series brings new Black Ops 6 weapons and a revamped movement system in Omnimovement. Skill expression has never been more prevalent in the FPS game, and while movement can be king, the best loadouts will put you in great stead to dominate every match you enter.

PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 6:38 AM I've always loved MMOs. I've plowed hours into exploring every corner of Azeroth, and happily whiled away the days chilling by the Aetheryte in Limsa Lominsa, watching the world go by. But, with stellar single-player games like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Baldur's Gate 3 occupying my time at the moment, I've fallen off of the MMO grindset and haven't quite found a reason to return to it. Enter Sword of Justice, Netease's gorgeous new Wuxia-inspired fantasy adventure. Having racked up over 40 million players in China during its first month alone, the team confirms that it's coming to the West, and it's about to ruin my attempts to clear my Steam backlog.

PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 6:36 AM What are the Elden Ring Nightreign system requirements? In a surprising twist, the Elden Ring Nightreign system requirements almost mirror those of the original souls-like game. There are changes to the CPU requirements, but almost everything else is identical. The original Elden Ring system requirements were arguably low even for 2022, but the decision to apply a 60fps frame cap perhaps explained the decision. Now, with Elden Ring Nightreign finally out and available to play, you still won't need the best graphics card to enjoy this soulslike, but an upgrade to your CPU may be required. You can also check out the best Elden Ring Nightreign settings to see how the game performed in our tests on PC and the Steam Deck.

PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 6:21 AM What are the best Elden Ring Nightreign settings for PC and Steam Deck? We're ready to step back into the world of Elden Ring, and this brutally hard Souls-like is simple enough to run on gaming PCs and handhelds alike, thanks to one rather limiting feature. The Elden Ring Nightreign system requirements surprised us, with very little changing from the release of Elden Ring back in 2022. This means you won't need the best GPU to get great performance, but an awkward 60fps frame cap prevents you from achieving super high frame rates at launch anyway.

PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 6:20 AM With its move away from the original's open-world RPG format, Elden Ring Nightreign was always going to divide opinion somewhat. Rather than a sweeping, fantasy epic, the three-player co-op game is a frantic dash for gear, leading into a challenging boss rush where you're being herded by a Fortnite-style circle of flame. It strips away the gradual, player-driven character progression of base Elden Ring in favor of fixed classes, placing the focus on quick, roguelike-style runs. Instead of its dramatic change in focus, however, so far, it's Nightreign's missing features that are actually proving the real killer reviews wise, dooming it to an initial rating of 'mixed.'

PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 7:35 AM What is the best Elden Ring Nightreign class? There are eight Nightfarers to choose from in Nightreign. Each class boasts an assortment of unique abilities, stats, and equipment that correspond to a class archetype in FromSoftware's action RPGs. Some excel as defensive tanks, while others sling spells from a distance. With so much variety, finding the right class for you can be a bit of a grind. To help you decide, we've got a full overview of all classes in Elden Ring Nightreign, including their role, main stat, and starting equipment. The best class lets you leap straight into Limveld, even if you don't have any prior experience with FromSoftware's soulslike games. That said, even niche classes can excel in the right hands.

PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 6:00 AM If you want to lose yourself in a survival game, the surface-level pitch for Soulmask is pretty irresistible: the world is massive, you can create custom buildings, and developer Campfire promises a play time of some 500 hours. Heck, even the free demo, released at the top of 2024, was 40 hours long. Despite 'very positive' Steam reviews, however, the initial fervor around Soulmask has died off a little. At peak, it pulled in more than 45,000 concurrent players - right now, it's still doing admirably, but the simultaneous player base averages around 3,000. An alternative spin on the genre pioneered by Rust, The Forest, and The Long Dark, if you want a unique, hidden-gem survival game, Soulmask is mounting a resurgence with new, free DLC.

PCGamesN Friday, May 30, 2025 5:51 AM What is the best LC10 loadout in Warzone? SMGs are an interesting breed of weapon. You would be forgiven for thinking that they are all inaccurate, rapid-fire tools, useless beyond a close-range firefight. The LC10 proves that SMGs can operate beyond that, and with our setup, it can be a jack of all trades weapon that suits any loadout. It's no surprise that sniper rifles have ruled the battle royale game since the re-release of Verdansk; the wide open spaces invite extreme range. There are times when you need to get up close and personal with your enemy, though, and we believe that our Warzone LC10 loadout is the best tool for nearly every job, putting it in line as one of the best SMGs in Warzone.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Friday, May 30, 2025 5:34 AM ![]() Dispatch is a swanky visual novel with light strategy game elements in which you manage a bunch of reformed supervillains, assigning them to pop-up emergencies around town. So far, I have asked a dancing French assassin to rescue a balloon from a tree, sent a randomly transforming literal batman to thwart a boat robbery, ordered a golem and an invisible woman to break up a barfight between rival vigilantes, and tasked a light-manipulating popstar with cutting a supermarket ribbon. We managed to retrieve the balloon and open the supermarket with flying colours, but the boat is now at the bottom of the harbour. The golem and the invisible woman tried to resolve the barfight firstly by proposing that the participants form a Dynamic Duo, and then by way of a drinking competition. Now, the bar is in ruins. Also, the team's Human Torch equivalent can't go on break without starting a fire. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Friday, May 30, 2025 4:38 AM ![]() Although you won't see everything, you can finish Many Nights A Whisper in under an hour. Each day you'll train with your fiery sling, lighting braziers and honing your aim for a looming ceremony where you'll try to hit a distant ritual chalice with a single shot. At night, you'll sit at a confession wall. People will tell you their wishes, and you'll decide which will ones be granted if the ceremony is a success. The whole game takes place on a single large balcony, overlooking the sea. Tradition forbids you from speaking back to the wishful folk that come at night, feeding their braids through a statue for you to cut in acceptance, or else ignore. The only other person you'll actually see is your mentor, a likeable septuagenarian who's presided over these rituals for decades. You train, eat, listen to wishes, and sleep. After a few days of this, it's time for the ceremony. As I say, takes about an hour. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Friday, May 30, 2025 4:15 AM ![]() A sci-fi horror trope I quite enjoy is arboretums that provide oxygen to ships or structures, both because it's a nifty (if spurious?) idea, and because I like the concept of people who've only seen iron bulkheads for months staring wistfully at small trees. I think Alex Garland's criminally underrated Sunshine did it. Kenny Lentil's Biological Shock did it. Dead Space too. The derelict ark you'll be scavenging and surviving in Dandelion Void also has plants, but the caveat is that the plants can move. The other caveat is that the plants are bastards. |

If you want to two-hand any weapon in Elden Ring Nightreign, you'll likely find that trying to do it is a lot more challenging than you might admit if you don't know the specific button combinations needed to access it.
Having a two-handed weapon does come with its added benefits. You deal a lot more damage while two-handing a weapon and deal more Poise Damage if you have a good Poise stat. Poise Break lets you break your enemies more often, for example.
You also get a different moveset using two-handed weapons, but your attacks do become slower, opening you up for attacks far more often. So be sure to weigh the positives and negatives of each two-handed weapon type, and don't two-hand something like a shield, for example.
But with the explanation out of the way, let's go into how it works.
How to two-hand in Elden Ring Nightreign
To two-hand any weapon in-game, you need to hold the interact button and press either the left or right attack button while the interact button is held down.
On a PS5 controller, you need to hold down the Triangle button while pressing R1 for your right weapon and L1 for your left weapon. On Xbox, this would be holding down the Y button while pressing either RB or LB, and lastly, for PC players, this is holding down Alt and clicking the left or right mouse button.
You can change which buttons these controls are associated though, in the Key Bindings settings menu, but for the most part, these are the standard controls if you haven't tinkered with anything.
As for when is the best time to use two-handed weapons, I find it's always best to use them in a run when you have been very unlucky with finding good weapons or Smithing Stones to upgrade your current kit. If you have a low-strength weapon, using two-handed is a way to deal more than the base damage and give you and your team a fighting chance to survive more days that pass.
Equally, some players might prefer the chance to drain more HP with heavy attacks and break opponents more easily, or prefer the style of fighting overall. So hope the explanation helps you!

Elden Ring Nightreign has finally arrived, and the bravest of souls are jumping in either solo or in teams of three to take on the various bosses in this new rogue-like take on the soulslike formula.
A multiplayer souls-like game is not going to be for everyone, though, especially when you need a team of three to enjoy the game to the fullest, as there is no option to play as a duo or more than three players. Solo is also incredibly difficult currently and needs to be rebalanced to make it workable for the vast majority of players who haven't got thousands of hours of grinding beneath their feet.
So I have to wonder, are you planning to pick up this game, Destructoid? And if so (and if not), why?
For the aforementioned solo players, there's very little reason to pick this up, especially if you don't like to queue with randoms who might make the experience a nightmare for a game that requires such coordination to make each run work. It's also painfully clear that good teammates who are in sync will have a far better time than those who are running about doing their own thing. You have to work together on this one.
So what are your plans? It's pretty affordable, but do you plan to wait and watch some content creators or streamers play it first? Is it not your cup of tea? Are you a day one believer and are already grinding towards the ending and trying to find all the game's secrets?
Let me know in the comments below, and for those that have picked up the game, I'll see you in a run, nightfarers!
