PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 7:38 AM What are the Cyberpunk 2077 system requirements? CD Projekt Red is ready to bring yet another major update to Cyberpunk 2077, shortly after revealing that a new game has entered pre-production. For now, the PC system requirements for this epic RPG remain unchanged since Phantom Liberty's release, and you'll need some impressive hardware to run it at 4K with high frame rates. Despite this, you won't need the best graphics card to run Cyberpunk 2077 in 2025, at least not if you're aiming for 60fps at 1080p, but if you're aiming for those 4K ray tracing specs, your entire build will likely need an upgrade. The Phantom Liberty DLC introduced the new requirement for an SSD, but also generally raised the requirements for all performance levels.

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 7:02 AM It feels like there's a checklist that every videogame has to adhere to these days. Does it have a solid, emotion-driven narrative? Is the world seemingly endless? Is it 50 hours long? Videogames just keep getting bigger, but I consistently find that they lose their sparkle as a result. Dying Light 2 was, in some ways, one of those games - the zombies didn't feel like the focus until the introduction of Tower Raid. Dying Light: The Beast, however, promises to go back to the series' survival horror roots, with franchise director Tymon SmektaĆa telling PCGamesN that it's trading out human politics and factional conflict for good ol' fashioned zombie slaying.

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 7:16 AM Where are all the Expedition 33 Mimes? Clair Obscur has its fair share of weird and wonderful enemies, but Mimes are a cut above the rest. These hidden bosses are found in every major location on the Continent, and they are as much an ode to Clair Obscur's French influence as the cosmetic outfits they drop. Mimes aren't the biggest boss challenge in Clair Obscur Expedition 33, but their unique moveset and ability to construct invisible barriers that absorb damage can make them appear impossible to defeat. However, like all mime artist tricks, this is just an illusion. We've delved into all the secret areas in the turn-based RPG to provide a complete list of all Mime locations, plus some essential tips on how to beat them.

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 6:59 AM Want to know about new Genshin Impact characters? During each new update, there's usually at least one brand-new playable character introduced to the roster. They typically appear on event banners with increased drop rates, including one five-star character and three four-star characters. While we know which characters are likely to appear on the next Genshin Impact banners, some characters featured in this guide might not be playable right now, but they can still be found in Genshin Impact. We've also included some characters who are rumored to join the free PC game down the line, but may not have an in-game model just yet. While none of this information is official until Hoyoverse says otherwise, here's a round-up of all the current rumors and speculation.

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 6:24 AM While it's supposed to be tough, the new Lies of P Overture DLC might take the challenge too far. A new director's letter from developer Neowiz acknowledges how some parts of the expansion didn't quite turn out as intended, and the team promises that it's looking into potential difficulty nerfs soon. Judging by the community response to this, the main issue is with New Game Plus, which appears to be making the game punishingly unfair.

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 6:23 AM Which characters are in 2XKO? Predicting the final roster isn't as easy to do with the League of Legends spinoff. After all, there are over 140 potential Champions to pick from. Just like League of Legends and Valorant, we're fully expecting Riot to add to their roster of characters in the fighting game every so often. It's difficult to say how long it takes to create a fighter for 2XKO, but if other fighting games are anything to go by, we could expect a new roster addition every few months. The 2XKO release date is set for later this year, giving us plenty of time to analyze and assess the current roster of 2XKO characters and their movesets.

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 6:14 AM What is the Onimusha Way of the Sword release date? It's been almost 20 years since the last new Onimusha game launched. The last mainline entry was Dawn of Dreams following Jean Reno's infamous appearance in Onimusha 3, but poor sales put the series on ice. Until now. It's time to sharpen that sword and make peace with your inner demons again, because we've got a confirmed release window for Onimusha Way of the Sword. Set mainly in feudal Japan, the samurai game revolves around harvesting souls from your fallen foes to become stronger and defeating whatever big boss happens to be standing in your way.

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 6:06 AM Anvil Empires is a terrific idea. Imagine a game of Age of Empires 2, but every villager and soldier is an actual, living player. Cooperating with hundreds of other people, you need to build a village, create a production line for weapons and armor, and defend your castle from the opposing army, every member of which is also a real person. Like Foxhole before it, Anvil Empires promises not just large-scale, multiplayer combat, but a simulation of every facet of warfare, where the factory workers and manufacturers behind the front line are just as important as the troops. And so far, the sheer numbers are looking good. More detailed feedback, however, is less than resoundingly enthusiastic. MORE FROM PCGAMESN: Best RTS games, Best MMOs, Best medieval games |

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 7:05 AM What is the best gaming motherboard? Finding a good gaming motherboard isn't always straightforward, as your choices depend on your CPU. Not only will AMD chipsets not work with Intel CPUs, but newer Ryzen 9000 and 7000-series chips also won't work in older AMD motherboards. Likewise, you can't put a new Intel Core Ultra CPU into an old LGA1700 motherboard. As the central component of your gaming PC, it's important to nail this choice. Once you've established which socket you need for your CPU, there's an exhaustive list of other considerations. Do you plan to overlock your CPU? How many USB ports do you need? What type of gaming RAM does your board support? Will it even fit in your PC case? Don't worry, though, as we explain all these factors and more in the how to choose section at the bottom of this guide. Plus there's an FAQ to answer the most common questions for motherboard buyers.

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 6:38 AM June 10, 2025: We checked for new Wuthering Waves codes. What are the new Wuthering Waves codes?

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 5:59 AM Looking for Dune Awakening guides? They who control the Spice, control the universe. Anyone who has even briefly rubbed shoulders with the blockbuster book-and-now-profitable-movie series Dune will know that spice, and the desert planet of Arrakis, are central to many stories in that universe. And now, with Dune Awakening, it'll be central to yours, too. Dune Awakening is an open-world, crafting, survival MMO. That is a lot of descriptors, but Dune Awakening merges them all, creating an experience for players to rival that of any established character in the sandy franchise.

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 5:57 AM Does Dune Awakening have crossplay? While Funcom's sci-fi survival epic will soon be released on PC, everything's quiet on the console front. We do, at least, know that players on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S will eventually be able to immerse themselves in the Arrakean desert, and there's already been talk about crossplay from the devs. Dune Awakening has had to get creative with Frank Herbert's spice-fueled odyssey, ducking around the canon currently being adapted by Legendary Pictures. With Paul Atreides out of the picture, the Arrakis you'll explore when the Dune Awakening release date rolls around will look rather different from what you know. But will you be able to enjoy the adventure game with pals on other platforms when the console launch rolls around, and will you be able to explore with your character, whether on PC or console, via a Dune Awakening cross-progression system?

Don't let the placement of the characters on our Genshin Impact tier list deter you from pulling on the next character banner. Being on a lower tier in the free PC game means that there are better alternatives, or the character needs a very specific build or team to shine.

A single-player combat-focused experience from The First Descendant developer Nexon, it's already the top demo on Valve's platform during Steam Next Fest. While the player numbers are high, the overall reception to the demo has been mixed so far, largely due to the pace of combat and the game's overall stability.

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 5:51 AM Will Dune Awakening support mods? It's no secret that proper mod support can be a game-changer for enjoyment, and survival games have often been major beneficiaries. From significant quality of life tweaks to major overhauls of crafting systems, there are some cracking mods out there. What's more, private servers often come with in-built modifiers, letting you switch up things like progression speed among other elements. But will Dune Awakening follow suit? While there's only a small chance server-wide mods will arrive with Dune Awakening private servers, you can expect the modding community to chip in with visual filters and performance adjustments to give the survival MMO a bit of extra oomph.

PCGamesN Tuesday, June 10, 2025 5:45 AM How do Dune Awakening private servers work? If you're after a truly anti-social experience, or only want to explore Arrakis' gorgeous desertscape with your closest compadres, we don't blame you. From Minecraft to Rust, to Funcom's other survival title, Conan Exiles, private servers have become a staple of the genre. Dune Awakening follows suit. Dune Awakening takes an alternate approach not only to Frank Herbert's canon but also to the way it does its networking. While maps in survival games are typically tied to a single server, the MMO utilizes server meshing, hosting multiple dynamic map regions across servers to create one, unified experience. This makes things particularly tricky when it comes to leasing out private servers, and initially gave cause to doubt that Dune Awakening private servers would ever be a thing.

Unlike Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown which is a traditional Metroidvania, this game has been designed as a roguelike. Developed by Evil Empire, one of the studios responsible for the critically acclaimed Dead Cells DLC, The Rogue Prince of Persia utilizes the series' key elements, while tying in roguelike game mechanics to make the game infinitely replayable.

While we still love single-player games, but there's also something to be said for the chaotic joy to be had in multiplayer experiences - especially massively multiplayer ones. One of the few downsides that comes with playing with friends and strangers around the world is the instability of online servers. As a survival MMO, Dune Awakening could be victim to severe server downtime, so if you're struggling to get into Arrakis, that could be why.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Tuesday, June 10, 2025 5:55 AM ![]() Video game voice actor union SAG-AFTRA say they've reached a "tentative agreement" with a group of games companies that could bring an end to the latest voice actor strike, providing it gets approved by the union's National Board and members. This tentative deal "puts in place the necessary AI guardrails that defend performers' livelihoods in the A.I. age, alongside other important gains," say SAG-AFTRA. That's been the key issue at the heart of this strike, with the union citing a desire to push for protections against VAs being replaced or imitated by AI, though it has previously faced some criticism for how it's handled striking deals with companies that use AI. |
