PCGamesN Thursday, June 19, 2025 9:57 AM As the Elder Scrolls Online turns ten years old, Asus is celebrating the milestone by giving away a free ROG Ally X, its flagship gaming handheld. Meanwhile, two runners-up will receive codes for The Elder Scrolls Online Collection Gold Road, the latest expansion for the MMORPG. Asus has also just revealed its Xbox Ally handhelds, due to land later this year, but as you can read in our ROG Ally X review, this AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme handheld is still mightily impressive, earning its stripes as one of the best gaming handhelds. Better still, if you were to win one, you'd save a rather sweet $899 in the process. MORE FROM PCGAMESN: Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 review, Asus ROG Ally X review, Best gaming motherboard |
PCGamesN Thursday, June 19, 2025 9:56 AM Despite being an excellent game, Rise of the Ronin doesn't get enough recognition. Originally a PlayStation exclusive, it was doomed to live in the shadows of Ghost of Tsushima. Its arrival on PC should have been its moment to shine, but it came out a mere week before Assassin's Creed: Shadows. The timing of its releases has never been in its favor, but this deal brings it down to the lowest price yet, and I implore you to give it a chance while it's on offer.

PCGamesN Thursday, June 19, 2025 9:50 AM The next generation of Intel CPU, Nova Lake, could have as many as 52 cores, according to new leaks. Along with this massive core count total, the new processors will allegedly have up to 16 of its powerful P-Cores and feature a TDP of 150W, although the peak TDP is likely to be considerably higher. These apparent Intel CPU architecture details suggest that the new chips will boast more than double the number of cores of its previous architecture, Arrow Lake. This increase greatly bolsters the chances of these upcoming processors finding a place on our best gaming CPU guide when they are released. Comparatively, the future AMD Zen 7 architecture is rumored to top out at 32 cores, though they're likely to all be full-fat cores, rather than being split between P-Cores and E-Cores.

The Roots are a race of sentient plants and fungi which, if you've watched The Last of Us, seems like a recipe for trouble.

PCGamesN Thursday, June 19, 2025 8:54 AM With the latest games eating more and more drive space like massive hungry monsters, there's nothing quite like having a huge, high-speed drive that can contain loads of installs at once, and this WD Black SN7100 gaming SSD deal enables you to do just that for only $249.99. This drive has now hit its lowest ever price, saving you a good $70 on the price just three months ago. It's a limited-time deal, though, so you'll need to be quick. The WD Black SN7100 picks up from where the acclaimed WD Black SN850X left off, providing a fast PCIe 4.0 drive that can read at up to 7,250MB/s, while giving you a decent amount of capacity for a fair price. It's not as fast as the latest PCIe 5.0 drives, such as the WD Black SN8100, but it's still fast enough for most people's needs. Best of all, it only costs $62.50 per terabyte if you buy the big 4TB drive. MORE FROM PCGAMESN: Best graphics card, Best gaming PC, Best SSD for gaming |

The Chinese Room's BAFTA-winning disaster horror set on the North Sea had a pretty definitive ending, so the news that more was on the way took me by surprise.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Thursday, June 19, 2025 9:54 AM  Rematch, the game about kicking it in the goal from Sifu and Absolver devs Sloclap, have launched today, June 19th. The folks behind it have rung in that occasion by outlining a bunch of their future plans, as well as saying they're very sorry you can't currently show off your mouse and keyboard skills by nutmegging some fool who owns one of those ex-boxers. Don't worry, though, crossplay and a bunch of other stuff are in the works for future updates to the foot-to-ball thing Nic and James dug the beta of, and that currently sits fourth in Steam's top sellers list. |

I thought the little I played was alright, but didn't stick with it that long, slipping back into the pair of comfy slippers that were Civ 6. Now, though, Ara's just gotten a big update, and it looks like it should solve some of the issues that folks flagged with the base game. |

I don't know anything about ZPF's genremates or even what its name stands for, but I do know a good colourful big bastard turtle when I see one, and that was enough for me to try the Steam demo. "Great score!" Zam Pankman-Fried told me after I died 45 seconds in. From this, I learned that ZPF is a massive liar, but also that I actually quite like shmups still.

The first of these arrived in 2021. Time and more time passed, prompting a union of shaking fists to wave grubby promissory notes scrawled on diner hamburger wrappers and brace themselves for a trampling by the proverbial Pinkerton agents on horseback of continued disappointment. Despite this, that second DLC never materialised. Do not fear the sound you hear. The Pinkerton's have not found you - it is simply the heavy clopping of legal obligations being grudgingly fulfilled. Hunt For Aurora is now available, assuming there's anyone left with the energy to avail it. |

Sanrio is collaborating with the Japanese watch brand Angel Heart to release a heavenly Cinnamoroll watch. Instead of coming in a box like a normal watch, it'll come in a vanity pouch that looks like Cinnamoroll's head, which you can reuse for small items like make-up or keys.
The watch is mostly silver, though the face is the pale blue that's usually associated with Cinnamoroll. The edges where the numbers are resemble clouds, and they're on a separate layer from the blue. This gives the face a three-dimensional effect, while also resembling the sky where Cinnamoroll came from. Angel Heart's logo is above the hands of the watch, and there's a Cinnamoroll hanging out near the six. There is also an engraved Cinnamoroll on the back.
As for the Cinnamoroll pouch, it's around 190 mm wide and 110 mm tall. As mentioned earlier, you can use the bag when you're going out for a short amount of time. It can fit travel-sized containers of hand cream, perfume, make-up, sunscreen, and so on. Both the zippers and handle use pearl beads, which gives it a fancier look.
The Cinnamoroll watch from Angel Heart will come out on July 18, 2025. However, pre-orders are open now. As a note, both Sanrio's and Angel Heart's online stores don't accept international orders.

Yakuza 0 Director's Cut is a fantastic game for so many reasons. It's an updated release of a top-tier Like a Dragon installment with a new mode and more story segments. It runs wonderfully on the Switch 2, which is great to see considering what it took to even get the original on the previous system. It's also a perfect way to get introduced to a series that might otherwise be off-putting due to how many entries there are and the history of the Tojo Clan. I can't help but feel like Yakuza 0 Director's Cut being on the Switch 2 is a way to usher in even more people to one of Sega's best series.
Both Kazuma Kiryu and Goro Majima are at precarious points in their careers as Tojo Clan yakuza as Yakuza 0 Director's Cut begins. In the early moments in Kamurocho, Kiryu is framed for a murder that took place in an empty lot and, as a result, asks to leave the Dojima Family to protect Shintaro Kazama, who he's under in the organization, from any trouble. When that doesn't work, he uses his new freedom to investigate the situation. Meanwhile, Majima is being punished by the Shimano Family in Sotenbori after an assassination incident, though he's told targeting a woman named Makoto Makimura could make all those issues go away. Remember that empty lot I mentioned earlier? Makoto now owns it, and the realtor Tetsu Tachibana that Kiryu is working for is looking for her too. Everyone is willing to go to great lengths to get that property, with only these two standing in the way.
At its core, Yakuza 0 features an incredible story, so there's not too much to say about the direction Yakuza 0 Director's Cut takes. It's still a fantastic introduction to both Kiryu and Majima. We're seeing them each at a formative period of their lives. It's also portrayed a nuanced and tense situation filled with all kinds of excitement. I still think it's one of the strongest tales in the series.
That's enhanced by the addition of almost 30 minutes of new cutscenes that add more to the story. I don't want to spoil anything. However, I do think they're positive supplements. They help offer more insight into certain characters and situations. I feel like some helped with possible plotholes, as well as offering more explanation for how people got some information. There's one I especially enjoyed between Kiryu and Nishikiyama. It really helps with establishing their relationship.
The gameplay in Yakuza 0 Director's Cut works exactly like the original game and other installments ahead of the name change to Like a Dragon, so Switch 2 owners with any experience with the series will be fine. For those entirely new to the series, it's essentially sending us into two cities that are entirely open and filled with optional quests, minigame experiences, random fights against thugs, and of course a campaign you'll probably eventually get to. Kiryu will be going around Kamurocho, while Majima is in Sotenbori. Mainline missions involve heading to various locations and getting into brawls while using different fighting styles. Investing money in yourself increases your range of abilities and powers. Sub Stories abound, many of them absolutely hilarious or memorable for other reasons. The Cabaret Club management simulation in Majima's route also serves as one of the most engaging and entertaining of those sims. I suppose the real selling point here is how well all of this works on the Switch 2. The game works great. There are no hiccups. There's no lag in fights. It's fantastic.
Which means for those who opt into the new Red Light Raid mode should find that working rather well. It's essentially a horde mode fight. There are different locations and challenges that involve fighting through enemies in a minimum of 10 stages, with most lasting for 15 stages. You use Kiryu, Majima, and other characters to survive and take opponents down. I do recommend going into it after playing for a bit, so you're familiar with the moveset and capable of accessing extra characters.
I will say that while the option of English voice acting in Yakuza 0 Director's Cut is great, it's still not for everyone. The casting can be hit or miss sometimes. Matt Mercer is absolutely fantastic as Goro Majima, but then we knew he's great at the role since games like Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii. I do think Yong Yea still doesn't feel right as Kazuma Kiryu. I'd hoped since he'd had some time with it, maybe his performance would improve, but I'm still not feeling it. Especially since Takaya Kuroda is so good and expressive in the role. There's a sense of nuance that Yea doesn't seem to catch in his portrayals, and I find it difficult to go with the English dub as a result. Kaiji Tang (Akira Nishikiyama), Risa Mei (Makoto Makimura), and David Hayter (Osamu Kashiwagi) are also standouts.
Yakuza 0 Director's Cut is the most packed version of what I consider the best game in the series. The story is a fantastic one, and the additional cutscenes present in this release act as a great complement to what's already here. The gameplay is fantastic, and it runs so well on the Switch 2. Red Light Raid is also entertaining for those who really enjoy the combat system. The English voice acting is generally good, with a few actors feeling out of place or not keeping up with the original Japanese performances, and it is nice to have that option. Yakuza 0 Director's Cut is a fantastic Like a Dragon game, and I feel itis a perfect addition to the Switch 2 launch library.
Yakuza 0 Director's Cut is available for the Switch 2.

The best Champions and Avatars in Anime Eternal are determined by their starting Energy stat which directly increases your damage. Both Champions and corresponding Avatars have the same Energy stat so we can rank them the same way. We'll also take a look at the best gamepasses. Here's my Anime Eternal tier list for champions and gamepasses.

Anime Eternal Champion and Avatar Tier List
To determine the best Champion in Anime Eternal we look at their starting Energy stat because the more Energy you generate the more damage you deal. Each Avatar you can equip has the same stats as the corresponding Champion so we can essentially rank them in the same way. Note that secrets in this game are called Phantoms and these are from bosses from each world. Lastly, I'll be looking at base stats which are a good measure of potential but note that they reach higher (For example Sukuni unit at Lvl 100 has 5620 Energy).
Anime Eternal Gamepass Tier List
Here are the best game passes in Anime Eternal based on the pure value you get. The Fast Clicker simply increases your damage and Double Energy also helps with DPS since Energy increases damage and Energy helps you rank up faster. Once you get those you can go for A-Tiers. The rest aren't as worth it. Note that I don't recommend buying these with Robux since it's more worth it to farm Credits. You can also get Credits with our Anime Eternal codes.
That's it for my Anime Eternal tier list for best champions, units, and gamepasses. For a similar game check out our Anime Shadow 2 tier list.

PEAK has a lot of items, and most of the time, when escaping the fog, it's hard to know whether to take one or leave it without knowing what effect it gives out, especially when a lot of things can poison or hurt you, instead of aiding you.
So to help everyone out, we have created a list of every item and what it does, so when you find an item you've never seen before, you can give the list a quick CTRL+F scan and find out how useful, or unhelpful, it is.
Every item in Peak and how it works
A quick note: we might not have found all items and will update the information as we locate them. We also haven't listed all food types, as most of them are fairly easy to find. However, we have noted specific foods where they might have an effect, such as poisonous Mushrooms.
On the topic of poisonous mushrooms and finding out if one is poisonous or not, it's difficult as there are so many different mushrooms available. We tend to avoid them ourselves, for safety.
But anyway, here is a comprehensive guide to each item you can find, and what they do:
