Kotaku Monday, December 19, 2022 6:45 PM  We have this on record, I know, but in case anyone needs reminding: Dark Forces is the best Star Wars video game ever made. It might not be the best video game made using the Star Wars license, but it is the most Star Warsy. So it is very cool seeing the game given a fresh coat of paint thanks to the work of a… |

Kotaku Monday, December 19, 2022 5:40 PM  Video game merch is rarely cool. You'd be hard-pressed to find wearable merch worthy of any place other than the gym, or household items you could display in a mid-century modern living room. It's also rarely inspired or unique—my cabinet is full of slightly chipped Call of Duty coffee mugs, my storage bin overflowing… |
PCGamesN Monday, December 19, 2022 5:46 PM  It's been a scant two weeks since the launch of Dwarf Fortress on Steam, and Dwarf Fortress mods are already stacking up in the Steam Workshop like logs in a lumber stockpile. While many of these add nice little quality of life improvements, others have gone straight for the weird and wacky, with mods that allow dwarves to fashion furniture out of cheese and, regrettably, milk the cats. There are a couple of things you should know about this if you've never played Dwarf Fortress. The first is that the cats in this colony management game enjoy a unique pride of place among the many animals that can become part of your fortress. Cats can't be adopted like dogs and hens, for instance - they have to choose a dwarf to bond with on their own.

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio announced an upcoming collaboration between Like a Dragon and Pop Team Epic. More information will appear in the near future. The teaser picture for this collaboration features Popuko and Pipimi dressed up like Kiryu and Majima, respectively. In Pop Team Epic season 2, episode 11, Takaya Kuroda and Hidenari Ugaki starred in the second half of the episode. Kuroda is the voice actor for Kiryu, while Ugaki is the voice actor for Majima. Their appearances may be part of the collaborative effort between Sega and Space Neko Company. In replies to RGG Studio's Tweet, several fans guessed that this might be the case. Because there is so little information on the Like a Dragon and Pop Team Epic collaboration, it is impossible to tell what fans can expect. They are standing in the middle of a modern Kamurocho, so if it is DLC, then it could be for Yakuza Online or Like A Dragon: The Man Who Erased His Name. This is because the other game coming out soon – Like a Dragon: Ishin! – is set in the Bakumatsu era of Japan. More information on the Like a Dragon and Pop Team Epic collaboration will appear in the near future. Pop Team Epic is available for streaming via Crunchyroll.

Square Enix announced Kingdom Hearts Concert: Second Breath, which will be an official musical concert for the Kingdom Hearts games. This appears to be part of the 20th Anniversary celebration for the series. A raffle to pre-order tickets started on December 19, 2022 and will end on December 25, 2022. You will only need to pay if you are chosen from the raffle. Once chosen, you will have between January 5-9, 2023 to pay. You will not be allowed to bring in babies or toddlers. A normal ticket costs 7,700 JPY, which is approximately $56.25. However, if you pay for the Music Box ticket, it costs 10,000 JPY (around $73). Like a normal ticket, the Music Box ticket will give you a reserved seat. It will also come with a music box that plays "Dearly Beloved" when opened. This music box will not be for regular sale, making this concert ticket the only way to obtain it.
The Sienna Wind Orchestra will play for the concert, and Yoko Shimomura will be there as a guest. Shimomura is the composer behind the Kingdom Hearts series. Other soundtracks she worked on include the ones for Final Fantasy XV, Parasite Eve, and Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. The concert in Osaka will take place on February 19, 2023. After that, the concert in Tokyo will occur on March 18, 2023. The Kingdom Hearts Concert: Second Breath tickets are open for pre-order. You will need a Square Enix account to apply for the ticket raffle. They will announce the winners on January 5, 2023.

It is scheduled to release on December 25, 2022. https://twitter.com/fgoproject/status/1604766740193284096 The access conditions for Lostbelt 7 are simple.

PC Invasion - FeedDDD Monday, December 19, 2022 7:00 PM  During your interplanetary travels in High on Life, you may have stumbled on a Warp Crystal. These strange, purple crystals are optional items you can gather throughout the game. They don't have a stake in story completion, but they can help you get an achievement. Hooray! Here's how to get and use Warp Discs and Warp Crystals in High on Life. Warp Crystals can be found on warp bases, or "warped-in" buildings in levels. You'll be able to spot them wedged into computer consoles, usually on top of these structures. They show up on your mini-map when you use the Info Scanner, so be sure to keep hammering away at the key or button. In most cases, the Warp Crystal is locked away until all enemies in an area are defeated. So, mark the location of one in your brain box during a fight, and return once all the baddies are blasted. They are also occasionally found in Luglox chests. Screenshot by PC Invasion High on Life: How to use Warp Discs and Warp Crystals But w... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Monday, December 19, 2022 6:30 PM  Bungie's new Destiny 2 dungeon, Spire of the Watcher, is finally here. Bringing guardians a new area to explore and conquer, but most importantly, new cowboy-themed loot to farm. Spire of the Watch takes heavy inspiration from the Wild West, from the trailer to the weapons and armor. Want your Titan, Hunter, or Warlock gunslinging with a cowboy hat on? Then this dungeon's loot is for you. However, that isn't the only loot in the dungeon, as we will look over the Destiny 2 Spire of the Watcher loot table for armor and weapons. Spire of the Watcher has guardians heading into an old abandoned Spire bunker trying to stop the Vex from destroying intel by causing a reactor meltdown. Not just any Vex, however, but darkness-worshipping Vex who follow the Witness and are known as the Sol Divisive. Unfortunately, the community heavily criticized the dungeon for its length and use of recycled bosses. However, this won't stop guardians from wanting to loot for their 10-gall... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Monday, December 19, 2022 6:00 PM  You play as a space bounty hunter in High on Life, which came to us from Squanch Games and Rick and Morty creator, Justin Roiland. And as said hunter of bounties, you're equipped with space-age technology with your bounty suit. Among the cool pieces of tech, such as a Dodge Unit, you can also get something that let's you become more vertical. Here's our guide on how to get the jetpack in High on Life. The jetpack is one of the many mobility tools you'll claim in High on Life. It sits nicely alongside the Dodge Unit, letting you maneuver easily through the air and reach locations a jump couldn't reach. But unlike the Dodge Unit, getting the jetpack in High on Life takes a few more steps. To get the jetpack, you'll need to defeat both Krubis and Douglas, the next targets on your bounty list. Both targets will reward you with a new Gatlian weapon, so it's your choice on who to go after first. Krubis will award you with Gus, a shotgun-type weapon w... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Monday, December 19, 2022 5:00 PM  Naturally, not everyone will want to pair up with random strangers when playing an online game. Some will want to play exclusively with people they know, and others will want to experience the game by themselves with a team of bots. When Warhammer 40K: Darktide first launched at the end of November, players could not set up their own private lobbies. But now, thanks to the 1.0.20 patch, this no longer remains the case. If you want to start a private match in Warhammer 40K: Darktide, this guide will show you how. Warhammer 40K Darktide: How to start a private match Fortunately, you won't have to jump through many hoops to create a private lobby. Once you spawn in the Mourningstar, you simply have to walk straight and go to the Mission Terminal located opposite your starting position. When you enter it, hit 'P' to start setting up a private game instead of a public one. If you change your mind and want to join a public lobby, all you have to do is hit 'P' ag... |
