     Asus ROG Ally and Lenovo Legion Go deals take aim at Steam Deck

Right now, you can save $50 on the Lenovo Legion Go and UK buyers can also save £50 on the Asus ROG Ally, making for 7% and 8% savings on typical prices, respectively. Those aren't massive discounts but with the Steam Deck continuing to offer a cheaper and generally more popular option, the more powerful Windows alternatives are that little bit more tempting today.

Another factor in these Lenovo Legion Go and Asus ROG Ally deals could be the arrival of the MSI Claw, which is set to cost $100 less than the Go and Ally. It's also expected to have a longer battery life while maintaining competitive performance, so Asus and Lenovo have plenty of reasons to increase the value of their devices.

What are the best Palworld planting pals?

     Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League release date and latest news

When is the Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League release date? The upcoming Suicide Squad game is the follow-up to Rocksteady's iconic Batman: Arkham series. Promising a roster of heroes gone bad, intriguing cooperative combat, and plenty of self-aware, irreverent humor, there's a lot to be excited about, and we've compiled all the information about it right here.

Set in a chaos-covered Metropolis, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League flips the script on who's good and evil in the DC universe. In a twist on the usual superhero game format, we're tasked with bringing down the corrupt versions of the iconic heroes from the Justice League. It seems the only group capable and vaguely willing to stop them is a new ragtag Suicide Squad, assembled by the ruthless Amanda Waller. After the brilliant Arkham series, we're expecting big things from what could be one of the best PC games of next year. Here's everything we know so far about Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League, including the release date, trailers, gameplay, and more.

     Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth system requirements

What are the Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth system requirements? Joining Ichiban Kasuga in his quest to track down his long-long mother does not require a particularly powerful system. In fact, despite specs increasing from the previous entry in the series, they are still very achievable for many mid-tier gaming laptops and PCs.

Our Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth review describes the game as "the studio's best", earning itself a 9/10. So, without further ado, it's time to break down the system requirements to see exactly what hardware you need to run what is now one of the best RPGs on PC.

     Civilization 7 release date estimate and latest news

When is the Civilization 7 release date? For over 20 years, the Civilization series has amazed PC gamers with its intricate strategy, forcing players to think about more than just conquering their neighbors. Sometimes, the best victory is by being diplomatically savvy while secretly building massive cultural wonders, hoping nobody notices, especially the nuke-hungry Gandhi.

Now that we've had confirmation from Firaxis that Civilization 7 is officially in development, we've been gathering as much information as possible about the next installment of the strategy game series. While it's still early days, and we haven't even seen a trailer for it yet, we can at least figure out when you should expect to play it.

What do you do after running away from the big city to start a new life in the country? You run away from the country to start a new life in the big city, obviously. Former Stardew Valley developer Arthur "Mr. Podunkian" Lee has announced Sunkissed City, a life simulation game set in a delightful coastal burb that's reportedly "pumping with funky vibes and quirky characters", together with migraines, stretches of dead water and horrible sewer monsters.

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth isn't exactly spawned from the most hardware-bothering of game series. Most previous LADs, be they Kiryu's Adventures in Punching or the more turn-based reboot have all been technically gentle affairs, and Infinite Wealth is ultimately another one. At the same time, it shares with Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name a newfound interest in PC-specific tricks. That means a full selection of DLSS, FSR and XeSS upscalers, plus DLSS 3 frame generation. Real yakuza might use a gamepad, but it seems real fuzz-haired RPG fantasists use graphics cards.

Let's take a closer look, then, at how RGG's latest crime caper performs on PC. We'll also work out its best settings, to keep it running smoother than a legally distinct Segway.

Heat is a brand new system to the Tekken series.  Every character can use Heat, and it's represented by a thin blue bar under each health bar. Heat can be used to extend combos, enhance specific moves, or hit extremely hard as part of a Heat Smash. Heat can be activated with the universal command Right Punch + Left Kick (2+3). When activated, the blue Heat bar slowly depletes and takes roughly 10 seconds to empty.

     Best beginner characters in Tekken 8Picking a character in a fighting game is a big decision, especially in a title as complicated as Tekken 8. Each fighter feels different, with unique abilities. There's also an execution barrier to consider, as some fighters are much harder to use than others.
