Cyberpunk 2077 joins the list of Steam Deck verified games
Cyberpunk 2077 finally works… on the Steam Deck, I mean (it’s worked elsewhere for a while now.) The open-world RPG has always been playable on the portable machine, but it’s now Steam Deck verified – meaning Valve have tested it and used their almighty wisdom to determine it’ll run without a hitch.
Over 200 Apex Legends QA testers have been abruptly laid off by EA
Apex Legends. This news comes from a report by Kotaku which says the layoffs happened over a last-minute Zoom call, according to three of their sources. EA later confirmed the news, calling the layoffs part of their “ongoing global strategy” to expand the “distribution of our Apex Legends testing team.”
Final Fantasy XVI producer would like to bring it to PC “at some point”
Final Fantasy 16 is looking fab according to the latest round of previews, but that doesn’t do us much good if it doesn’t come to PC. The JRPG sequel is a six-month exclusive on PlayStation 5 and the PC version doesn’t have a release date.
During a recent interview, producer Naoki Yoshida said that it definitely won’t come to PC as soon as those six months are up, but that they “would like to release it eventually.”
Sons Of The Forest hotfix adds a much requested hotkey system
Sons Of The Forest is doing extremely well, selling 2 million copies in 24 hours. There have been a handful of gripes from players, though, and one of them just got resolved in the latest hotfix. You can now add hotkeys to weapons in your inventory.
Final Fantasy XVI’s Naoki Yoshida revisits his answer to cast diversity question
Final Fantasy 16 were released last year, some questions were asked about its predominantly white cast. Those questions were answered by producer Naoki Yoshida in a fashion he correctly predicted would be “disappointing to some”.
Yoshida has now revisited the question during the latest round of Final Fantasy 16 press.
Phantom Brigade review: entertaining mech battles carry a toothless campaign
Phantom Brigade right. According to its internal clock, battles usually take less than a minute. That time is divided into five-second chunks during which you’re shown what the enemy will do, and must use that to coordinate your own mechs, placing their orders on a visible timeline. You finish your turn by hitting a button that makes everyone go at once for a few explosive moments.
In practice, behind those few seconds are an eternity of theorising, testing, and tweaking. There’s probably a metaphor in there somewhere about writing, video editing, or catering. The result is a game that’s taken me absolutely ages, but whose numbers suggest I’m supposed to be blasting through without a care.
I am enjoying it a lot, despite some frustration.
Honkai: Star Rail is a stylish turn-based JRPG, with very similar energy to Genshin Impact
Honkai: Star Rail‘s closed beta, and it certainly seems that MiHoYo’s upcoming free-to-play RPG is hoping to capture a similar audience to Genshin Impact’s. Star Rail’s turn-based battles and JRPG leanings might be a bit of a departure from Genshin’s open-world adventuring, but it’s definitely, 100%, without a doubt, anime as heck. Oh, and very gacha. There’s a lot of currencies. So many currencies. Still, I think it’s shaping up to be a decent time.
Garden In! has given me the plant-filled office space I can’t have in real life
 for like nine months now. If my need for plants were a child, it would have been born. I had a decent pot plant called James Plant back in the UK, but when I moved I bequeathed James Plant to Graham – and, now that I think about it, Graham hasn’t told me how James Plant is doing, so I should probably check in on that.</p>
<p>I know that digital plants do not replace real plants in a physical sense – i.e. I am getting no oxygenating benefit from them – but the little plants in <a href=)
Garden In! make me happy. And I’ve just realised the name is a pun, too.
