     Counter-Strike 2 might be getting pets, and new hairstyles

If there's one thing Counter-Strike 2 players love, it's skins and cosmetics. Since all the weapons are acquired during the matches, you need some way to differentiate yourself from the rabble. A new datamine by popular Valve creator Gabe Follower has potentially unearthed some new goodies that players may soon be able to enjoy: key chains, pets, and maybe even new hairstyle and heads for operators. There's also some new information about comics, maps, and animations.

     Endgame Gear OP1 8k review: simple but highly effective

Endgame Gear is far from the biggest name in gaming peripherals, but its first mouse, the XM1, was a solid entry into the market, and its latest addition, the Endgame Gear OP1 8k, has quietly convinced us it's one of the finest gaming rodents on the planet. Its combination of easy customization with a simple, comfortable design, great build quality, and fantastic performance means it doesn't put a foot wrong.

With praise like this, it's no surprise Endgame Gear's latest has earned a spot on our best gaming mouse guide. It's not a cheap option but it's competitive with similarly-specced alternatives and the non-8k version is considerably more affordable without losing any features other than the high polling rate.

     2XKO release date estimate, playtest, characters, and more

When is the 2XKO release date? If you ever wondered what a League of Legends 2D fighting game would look like, you're about to find out. Formerly known as Project L, 2XKO was confirmed as the game's official name in early 2024, featuring the likes of Yasuo, Darius, and Jinx.

In the developer's words, you'll be able to "walk, run, dash, chain dash, jump, long jump, and super jump," your way to victory. This means you can expect the gameplay in 2XKO to be similar to Marvel vs Capcom, rather than a slower game like Street Fighter. If you can't wait to learn more about this League of Legends fighting game, here's everything we know about the 2XKO release date so far. From trailers and gameplay to the champion roster, assist and tag system, netcode, and more.

     The best DayZ servers 2024

What are the best DayZ servers to join in 2024? We've scoured the internet looking for the top DayZ servers and server clusters to cater to all experiences. Whether you're looking for some intense PvP, a relaxed PvE sandbox, a modded server that offers something fresh, or even a place to roleplay like DayZ Underground, where a creative community has lived out years' worth of stories, creating authentic in-universe lore. We'll also talk about what awaits you on the official servers.

Dean Hall, perhaps the leading figure in the survival game sandbox revolution of the early 2010s, first created the zombie game as a mod within ARMA 2, then joined Bohemia Interactive to work on a standalone release. While Hall has since moved on, Bohemia has continued to update the game, and it has come a long way from its first form as a zombie-survival sim. Dozens of additional systems have almost turned it into a life sim, and endless mod-ability means that if you can't do something in the vanilla release, you can probably do it on a modded server somewhere. Read on for our list of some of the best and most populated official and community servers, and a breakdown of exactly what they offer to the discerning DayZ player.

     GTA 6 release date window, trailers, and latest Rockstar Games news

When is GTA 6 coming out? Given how many years it takes to create open worlds of the same caliber as GTA 5, it's no surprise that Rockstar Games has already spent years developing GTA 6. However, like most developers, Rockstar prefers to keep its secrets close to its chest until they're close to the end of development - and Take-Two has now confirmed when exactly we can expect it to arrive.

The Grand Theft Auto 6 release date has certainly been a long time coming. Early gameplay leaks of GTA 6 surfaced online last year, along with lines of source code and development footage for the open-world game. There's been plenty of rumors and speculation surrounding the release date since then, but we finally have confirmation of the GTA 6 launch window, story, and setting right here on PCGamesN. Here's all the latest on the GTA 6 release date, including trailers and news.

"The Republic Of Pirates was meant to be different…" laments the narration in the opening of the seafaring resource-chain-em-up strategy, out today with a demo on Steam at time of writing. This made me laugh, in the same way someone saying "the failure of Bastard City was deeply sobering" might. Yes, I know the pirate republic was a real thing, ended not by the infighting and treachery shown here, but by the British. I will avoid easy gags about Plundering Loisences and instead lightly recommend the demo to you. It's got enough meat on its bones for a less brainwidth-hogging gulp of city building, assuming you like the pirate theme enough. Spy the trailer I've shoved in a dangling cage below, as a warning to others who might trespass around this RPS-pelago.

The sinking terror that comes of having no fixed identity and being trapped alone thousands of metres beneath the ocean has been compacted into the soft, comforting (?) form of a plushie. Frictional Games, the creators of first-person horror game Soma, launched the soft toy depiction of the game's protagonist Simon on Makeship, aka Kickstarter for plushies. Normally, we don't report on merch - why would we? - but there is something deeply and darkly funny about making a fleece-coated fuzzy huggy wuggy about the psychologically harrowing experience of being forgotten under the sea. Then again, Frictional Games are not the first to do this sort of thing.

Way back in 2004, that terrible year when I swore off video games entirely to focus on my university studies, developers 1C SeaWolf announced Captain Blood, a piratical action game loosely based on Rafael Sabatini's adventure novels, in which a crew of 17th century freebooters set forth across the Spanish Main to rescue a magistrate's daughter from assorted bilge-drinking scallywags. Early footage painted the portrait of a spirited 3D hack-and-slasher featuring much buckling of swashes, heaving of hos and jollying of rogers.

Jim Rossignol (RPS in peace) was cautiously enthused when he played Captain Blood in 2008. "It was actually pretty fun - especially the arcade boat violence between speedy galleons - but I'm not exactly holding out for a masterpiece," he wrote. Alas, Captain Blood's ship struck a reef in the shape of unspecified publishing disputes, and sank beneath the waves after one last defiant preview showing in 2010. Now, the game has risen from the depths Flying Dutchman-style thanks to new developers Seawolf Studio and General Arcade and publisher SNEG Ltd. It'll finally launch on PC later this year.
