Crimson Desert is arriving in just two days, and everybody who has been keeping track of its journey is either super excited or praying it's not a jumbo-sized disappointment. Ahead of the launch, we now have a first look at the open-world game's trophy list, and it's a baffling one.
As concerns of a growing "AI bubble" continue to pile up while half the world is on fire, tech and gaming giants are trying their hardest to push AI-enabled "innovations". Nvidia is the latest company attempting to justify its massive investment in AI with DLSS 5, an "AI-Powered breakthrough in visual fidelity for games."
There may be other online shooters taking the limelight away fromHelldivers 2 (here's looking at you, Arc Raiders and Marathon), but that doesn't mean Arrowhead Game Stuidos' breakout hit has gone anywhere - especially with a live-action movie coming up. With a perfectly stabilized player base and install size woes dealt with, Arrowhead is ramping up the content output again, and the next major update looks like a doozy.
As the old saying goes, you wait ages for a fantasy themed Minecraft-a-like to come along, and then two arrive at once. Just months after Hytale made a stellar entrance following its near-cancellation, Enjoy Studio's sandbox survival RPG Everwind is now ready to take the early access spotlight. But it's got something to set itself apart: airships. Which begs the question, can an airship make everything better? Would FIFA be improved if the goalkeeper abseiled onto the pitch at the start of a match? Would I like Tetris even more if there was a little man in a dirigible dropping blocks from above? Some questions may never be adequately answered, but I do know that, by slinging airships into its mix of familiar bits, Everwind shows promise.
Last year, the PlayStation Portal was graced with its biggest update since the peripheral's 2023 launch. This came with a fair few advantages, not least the ability to play PS5 exclusives without actually having a PS5. As as result of this updates, Takuro Fushimi, senior manager of product management at Sony, noted that "the PlayStation portal has now become the most widely used device for PlayStation 5 Remote Play, surpassing mobile PC, PS5, and PS4."
As the world prepares for the arrival of Grand Theft Auto 6 (hopefully this year), many have been wondering whether gen-AI would make its way into Rockstar Games' gigantic project somehow. Take-Two boss Strauss Zelnick has plainly stated that AI is incapable of creativity of its own.
Sound the alarms, Bethesda boss Todd Howard has spoken a bit about The Elder Scrolls 6 in a recent interview. While he's keeping a lot close to his chest, a few details about the game's lengthy development were revealed that should soothe the eager RPG fan out there.
