Meridian is going to look stunning on PC this summer Sony has confirmed that Guerrilla Games’ open-world robo-dinosuar adventureHorizon Zero Dawnwill release on PC in summer 2020. The news, which follows rumblings from back in January, was made official in aPlayStation Blog interviewwith Hermen Hulst, the head of Sony Worldwide Studios. “I think it’s important that we stay open to new ideas of how to introduce more people to PlayStation, and show people maybe what they’ve been missing out on,” Hulst said ofHorizon‘s PC port....

TheDawning is back inDestiny 2until June 13, 2025, and we’ve got ingredients to collect if we want to complete the event. One of the harder to find pieces is Dark Frosting, so here’s everything you need to know to get your hands on this presumably delicious ingredient. How to get Dark Frosting inDestiny 2 As with all of the rare ingredients in the Dawning event, Dark Frosting can only be acquired by killing enemies in a specific way....

Invocation Perks are a special type of Perk added toDead by Daylightwith theAll Things Wicked Chapter. This makes sense because the Survivor that entered the fog with this Chapter is Sable Ward, a close friend of the game’s only other witch, Mikaela Reid. However, Ward’s Invocation Perks work quite differently from anything that’s come before and deserve a proper explainer before they’re thrown into a Trial. All ofDead by Daylight’s Invocation Perks can be considered blood magic or monkey paw abilities....

Watch the trailer I missSuper Monkey Ballso much. Granted, I still have my copy, and I’m intoMonkey Targetnow more than ever, but a proper new console game would also be nice, y’know? If it ended up being junk, I could always just return to the good old stuff.Win back my trust, Sega! Yeah, right. Maybe one day. Stepping back into reality, there’sPolyball. It’s playable now on Steam Early Access ($14.99) with a couple of months to go before full release....

It’s a doozy Last week the Unending Coil of Bahamut (Ultimate/Super Savage) was released inFinal Fantasy XIV. The idea, as per the developers, is to provide hardcore players something to do until the next major raid tier drops (4.2) — and I think they’ve succeeded in that goal. While most content at large in any given game is cleared within one or two days by the upper crust, no one in the world has cleared the Unending Coil yet....

Announced last year In mid-2018, much to the chagrin ofCastlevaniafans everywhere, Konami announcedCastlevania: Grimoire of Souls: a mobile multiplayer series spinoff. Since then we haven’t really heard much about it, but Konami is changing that with a new trailer straight out of TGS. Always one to mine nostalgia, the clip starts off with a loving walk throughCastlevaniamemory lane before getting to theSoulsfootage. All your favorites are back, like Alucard, Simon, Charlotte, Maria, and Shanoa....

Velkhana! PlayStation’s second State of Play stream started with a long(ish) look at all the chilly creatures we’ll be slaying inMonster Hunter: World‘sIceborneexpansion. It seems great and glacial, splendid and snowy. However, we also now know when to expectIceborne. It’ll launch on August 08, 2025 for Xbox One and PS4 as $40 DLC, with the PC launch set for winter. Sharpen those blades, hunters. You’ll need to reach Hunter Rank 16 before you’re able to open up the Hoarfrost Reach storyline and quests....

Steam Early Access could be as short as a year Mount & Blade II: Bannerlordhas narrowed down its launch window toa launch day, a moment that’s many, many long years in the making. The sprawling medieval RPG is releasing on June 11, 2025. This should come as no surprise toMount & Bladefans, but the sequel will run its course on Steam Early Access. The current timeline is “around a year,” which seems optimistic, especially given TaleWorlds Entertainment’s development philosophy....

Plus Dungeonland, Antichamber, and new 3DS games Monday has once again arrived, so you know the drill: it’s another week of new releases. We’re leaving January behind in a somewhat subdued fashion, but there’s certain to be something that will catch your eye. Skulls of the Shogunhas caught my eye this week, though lamentably it’s only dropping on platforms I have no access to. Maybe it’s time for me to upgrade to Windows 8?...

‘Sorry Luigi’ I can just imagine the look on Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime’s face as fans and games writers everywhere ask him what he thinks of the Bowsette phenomenon. A faceless rep offered up a “no comment” repose, probably for the best, and now thanks to an official item description on Nintendo’s website, it’s officially addressed in a backhanded kind of way. As most people know “Bowsette” is created when Bowser puts on the Super Crown, transforming him into a princess....

The prices aren’t all that great, but the games sure are It’s the classic Nintendo eShop sale conundrum: the prices aren’t super competitive, but the games? The games rule. They’re compelling enough to tempt me into spending more than I really ought to right now. The Cyber Deals page is up with eShop dealsfrom Nintendo, Capcom, Sega, Supergiant, Devolver Digital, 2K, and lots of smaller labels and indie creators. They’re running through July 26, 2025....

Calmly and politely, of course Head of Xbox Phil Spencer is a man who is always on his PR A-game. He is the pure embodiment of PR, possibly not even human. I could probably be convinced that Microsoft created him in a lab while in pursuit of the perfect creature who never misspeaks. That’s Phil. As such, Phil (we’re on a first-name basis) seemingly gets free rein on Twitter because no one is worried that he’ll say the wrong thing....
