PCGamesN Wednesday, March 8, 2023 7:16 AM  A Minecraft banner is a great way to spruce up your base, pinpoint locations on a map, or even customise your battle gear in the popular survival game. Knowing how to use and make a banner in Minecraft, though, isn't all that obvious, so we're here to help. One of the best PC games of recent years, and among the greatest building games, Minecraft has an massive creative inventory - of course mostly full of cuboid blocks. Unlike the majority of items in the sandbox game though, these tall, thin blocks are highly customisable. Particularly creative Minecraft builders have even come up with ways to incorporate them into complex builds, such as using them as curtains, headboards, and even bathroom towels. Whether you're that imaginative or not, you can still use Minecraft banners in a variety of ways, so read on to find out how to make, colour, customise, and use a Minecraft banner.

PCGamesN Wednesday, March 8, 2023 7:01 AM  Want to know how to transfer skins to Overwatch 2? If you are a veteran of the competitive FPS game, you may have accumulated a vast trove full of stylish skins that you want to wear to make your opponents super jealous. Migrating your Overwatch account progress to the sequel also transfers all sprays, emotes, other cosmetic items, and endorsements, so you don't have to worry about losing anything. And the best part? If you played the original game on PC and want to know how to transfer skins to Overwatch 2, you don't need to worry. All skins are automatically available in Overwatch 2 if you migrate over from the battle.net version of Overwatch on PC. However, there are some hoops you need to jump through if you played the original game on consoles, as the free PC game requires a Battle.net account to play. Luckily, this is a relatively simple task if you follow these steps.

PCGamesN Wednesday, March 8, 2023 6:56 AM  If you're wondering how to merge accounts in Overwatch 2, follow the steps listed here. There are a few ways to do this, whether you're on console or PC. First of all, you need to create a Battle.net account. If you're merging your accounts on console, login to Overwatch and scan the QR code, entering the code displayed on your console to either connect or create a new Battle.net account. You then need to confirm your account on the game login screen, which merges your accounts. Not only is the process easy to do so, and it's a required step if you want to partake in some Overwatch 2 crossplay. You also need to merge your accounts if you want to take advantage of the Overwatch 2 transfer skins method, to carry over those hard-earned cosmetics from the first game.

PCGamesN Wednesday, March 8, 2023 6:56 AM  The best farming games have a relaxing quality. There's something about the repetitive nature of tilling and planting a field and the slow payoff of your crops growing that makes you feel in-tune with nature - even if you are still sitting in front of your computer screen. The best farming games on PC can vary a lot in genre and gameplay, but all eventually come down to getting your hands dirty. Some of the best PC games that include farming are meant to be experienced alone and focus on the relationships between your protagonist and a cast of local characters. Others, like multiplayer games Staxel and Farm Together, are all about building something with friends and the fun of creating something together that's more than a prewritten story, so the genre is still full of variation. Whether they're cute and casual town games like Stardew Valley then, or more realistic business ventures like the Farming Simulator series, we've found a mix of the best farming games that should hit every quadrant of the agricultural games graph.

PCGamesN Wednesday, March 8, 2023 6:51 AM  Searching for the best Elden Ring armor sets? If we're being completely honest, there's no point in being good at something unless you look good while you're doing it. The best Elden Ring armor sets can separate you from the rest of the Tarnished out there, providing you with an outfit that can strike fear into the hearts of your enemies. In this RPG game, upgrading your armaments using Elden Ring smithing stones and Ashes of War is just as important as leveling up your character. There are some armor sets imbued with powerful abilities, though their usefulness largely depends on what type of character you're building. If you've got a fashion-conscious Tarnished, Elden Ring makes it difficult to find armor that is both protective and stylish, but it certainly can be done if you know where to look.

PCGamesN Wednesday, March 8, 2023 6:40 AM  Looking for the best Warzone 2 Minibak loadout? The past few CODs have all had some version of the Bizon, whether it's been called that or Bullfrog or the PP-19. It's an SMG that comes with a huge benefit baked right into the base model: it's got a huge underbarrel drum magazine that holds 64 rounds. Not having to take a big hit to mobility in order to carry a larger magazine is a huge benefit, so the main focus of our Warzone 2 Minibak loadout is to improve the aim-down sight speed and recoil control. The best Warzone 2 SMG setups are all about close-range damage and handling because the damage dropoff and effective range of full-auto weapons in Warzone 2 is a lot less forgiving, so we've tailored this build for run 'n' gun enthusiasts in the free PC game.

Whether you know it as the Bizon, PP19 Bizon, or Bullfrog, this SMG is a bona fide classic, and one of the best Modern Warfare 2 guns if you equip the right attachments to it. Of course, with the new MW2 Gunsmith system, actually unlocking the Minibak isn't all that simple. If you're stuck on that step then open up the Kastov 762 in the Gunsmith, then hit the V key to look at the weapon platform - you'll see the Minibak at the very bottom, so you'll need to grind through all the weapons before it to add it to your collection in the FPS game.

PCGamesN Wednesday, March 8, 2023 6:17 AM  Want to know how to install Minecraft Forge and manage your mods? It's pretty simple to set up, and once you get started you'll have a place to keep track of all your mods, whether that's tweaking your interface or spicing up your exploration. Minecraft is one of the best sandbox games, nay best PC games, of all time, but at over a decade old, Minecraft mods are just one of the things keeping players coming back year after year. Mods are not in short supply for Minecraft either, so when it comes to managing your Forge mods, the sheer volume can be a tad overwhelming. Minecraft Forge only works for the Java Edition, so if you're not living your best modding life on the original PC version, then there's plenty of fun to be had exploring Minecraft PE seeds to keep you busy for hours.

PCGamesN Wednesday, March 8, 2023 5:55 AM  What is the Fallout 5 release date? Following the reveal and subsequent release of the multiplayer spin-off Fallout 76, news and rumours about a proper Fallout 5 have been scarce. It has been a while since we witnessed the bombs drop and enjoyed our single-player sojourn through Fallout 4's Boston, and it's fair to say that few were left satisfied by Bethesda's foray into multiplayer with Fallout 76, which was devoid of human NPCs, traditional questing, and basically, all the things we've come to love about the series on its release. Naturally then, we're already itching for news of the Fallout 5 release date – unless that's a pesky Radroach bite. No, no, we're pretty sure it's excitement. Numbered releases in the Fallout series can be half a decade apart, so we could be waiting a long time before we can pick at the remains of a new Fallout location. So, for the moment, we'll have to be satisfied with rumours and hearsay: there is little in terms of Fallout 5 news. We've compiled all the Fallout 5 information that's currently out there below, along with our Fallout 5 wishlist. MORE FROM PCGAMESN: Fallout 5 news, Fallout 76 release date, Elder Scrolls 6 news |

PCGamesN Wednesday, March 8, 2023 5:30 AM  Deciding on the very best indie games on PC is a task that involves some painful exclusion. The great indie boom triggered by digital distribution a decade ago turned out to be more of a Big Bang, firing small-team development into a plethora of directions that now defy simple categorisation. The sheer volume is intimidating, so we have plenty to choose from when compiling our list of the best indie games. Perhaps too much. But we should take stock, from time to time, to appreciate everything publisher-less development has given us. Some of the games listed below were built in a weekend by first-time coders, while others were crafted by former triple-A creators who've instilled their independent work with the same technical standards. They barely have anything in common but a healthy dose of idiosyncrasy and ideas that make Steam worth spelunking and make our list of the best PC games.

Here we go again! Wave 3 of the Fire Emblem Engage DLC is here, which means so is Veronica and her wide array of skills. She's interesting! Especially since part of her mechanic nods to her ability to use heroes from other worlds as allies. As long as you bought the Expansion Pass, it's fairly easy to add her to your roster of Emblems and start teaching her abilities to characters in your army.
How Do You Unlock the Fire Emblem Engage Veronica DLCLike the other Emblem Bracelets, you first need to finish the Bandit Hideout Paralogue and get the Tiki DLC. Once you do, head to the Divine Paralogues part of the world map. Her map is Divine Paralogue: Heroes' Sanctuary. This isn't too difficult a map. However, go in with prepared parties and one healer in each group. This is because the gimmick involves positioning two units on designated markers on the east and west sides of the map to gain access to the floating island where Veronica is. However, as you get close, she will use her Colorless Stone ability to summon more units to fight for her.
What Skills Can You Inherit from the Fire Emblem Engage Veronica DLC?As with all Emblem Rings and Bracelets, the character equipping it must hit a bond level 5 with the Emblem hero to start inheriting skills. Her inherited skills are about boosting magical power, increasing someone's attack if they're low on health, and protecting against knives.
Fire Emblem Engage is out for the Nintendo Switch and the Veronica DLC is available now. The post Here are the Fire Emblem Engage Veronica DLC Skills appeared first on Siliconera. |
