With this Starfield Shattered Space guide, we’ll help you start the DLC and get to helping House Va’ruun in the wake of a cataclysmic experiment-gone-wrong. With the house in disarray, it’s your job as Starfield’s almighty chosen one to join the religious group, align all the major factions within House Va’ruun, and uncover the mysteries of the Vortex and the Great Serpent. There are a lot of choices to make in these missions, and even several new weapons to look out for if you want to represent House Va’ruun with your chosen weaponry. Here’s everything you need to know about the Shattered Space Starfield expansion.Shattered Space review In our Starfield Shattered Space review, we said that it’s “a solid expansion that presents lots of choices and exploration, but doesn’t really deliver on the horror aspect Bethesda teased”. While there are some highlights and intriguing moments, the expansion doesn’t quite go all in on House Va’ruun’s weirdness either.How to begin the Starfield DLC Bought the DLC but aren’t …

Silent Hill 2’s director is “very happy” that the new remake is bringing his horror classic to an entirely different generation. Masashi Tsuboyama led the original game with the sadly-shuttered Team Silent all the way back in 2001, and he’s now chimed in on what remakers Bloober Team have achieved in 2024.”I think the value of the remake is that a new generation can play it” Tsuboyama tweeted earlier this week right as glowing Silent Hill 2 Remake reviews began to flood the internet. “As a creator, I’m very happy about it. It’s been 23 years! Even if you don’t know the original, you can just enjoy the remake as it is. Whether it’s good or bad doesn’t affect the original.”🟥I think the value of the remake is that a new generation can play it. As a creator, I’m very happy about it. It’s been 23 years!

He called most of the fluffy modern additions – 4k resolutions, ‘photorealistic’ environments, and pre-order cosmetics -…

Genshin Impact version 5.2 will introduce two new playable characters, as developer HoYoverse announced today. Chasca and Ororon will make their debut, adding Anemo and Electro to the Natlan roster respectively. Chasca has appeared in Natlan quests already, so we know her to be an Anemo bow user. She’s known as a “Peacemaker” locally, settling disputes around the region, especially near the home of her sister Chuychu, whose parents adopted her. Surprisingly, Chasca’s backstory echoes that of OG 4-star Razor: she was raised by creatures called Qucusaurs in the wild. Chasca: Skyborne ArbiterPeacemaker of the Tlalocan#GenshinImpact #Chasca”…There’s no hope for the child… You know I can’t accept that either! But, please… just give up.”This was the first “conflict” that Chasca experienced in her life.”…Just what’s wrong with this… pic.twitter.com/naQLCCnxdROctober 7, 2024Ororon, meanwhile, has generally only been spotted in trailers so far. It’s clear from the latest Archon quest teaser that he’ll have a bigger role to play in Acts 3 and 4 coming in update 5.1. In his teaser art, he’s described as the “Shadow of the Night-Wind,” a nod to one of the six tribes of…

The short Destiny 2 Encoded Log quest is very simple but only if you know where the Well of Echoes is on Nessus and how to get there, as the path isn’t clear on the map. Although, once you’ve made it there, you’ve just got to complete some simple objectives to unlock a secret Destiny 2 area where you unlock the Enigma Protocol activity, taking you into the VexNet to disrupt their operations against the clock. Below, I’ve explained exactly how to get to the Well of Echoes in Destiny 2 and complete the Encoded Log quest quickly.Destiny 2 Encoded Log quest walkthrough Destiny 2 guidesDestiny 2 Planetary Assimilation Pistons

All Destiny 2 Prismatic FragmentsThe Encoded Log quest from HELM Failsafe tasks you with investigating the Well of Echoes area on Nessus for a possible source of VexNet integration. That means your first job is to get to the Well of Echoes, then you need to kill a Minotaur boss to uncover a new area that allows you to breach the VexNet. Firstly, head to the Tangle region on Nessus (the closest fast travel landing zone is in Artifact’s Edge) then here’s what to do after that:Head to the so…

Metaphor: ReFantazio’s fantasy world was created after director Katsura Hashino immersed himself in fantasy classics before designing it, although ultimately it sounds like this crash course had little impact on the final product.In case you’ve missed the rave reviews, Atlus’s new JRPG Metaphor: ReFantazio is one of the year’s highest rated games on Metacritic currently, matching PlayStation’s hit platformer Astro Bot for the top spot. If we’re counting expansions, Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC is the third game this year to reach that 94 Metascore. Talking to The Verge, Hashino said it was a challenge creating a fantasy world from whole cloth after spending so much of his time creating universes set in the modern age. Hashino previously developed Persona 3, Persona 4, Persona 5, and Catherine – all set in the modern day – at Atlus before he branched off and formed his own studio, Studio Zero, under the same publishing label. Metaphor: ReFantazio, by contrast, is set in a medieval fantasy realm called the United Kingdom of Euchronia.In order to prep for Metaphor’s development, Hashino studied classic fantasy IP by reading books like The Lord of the…

Collecting all the Destiny 2 Traveler collectibles hidden throughout the Pale Heart is essential if you want to unlock the Khvostov Exotic Auto Rifle. Each one you find might teach you a bit about the big, white orb and provides a Mote of Light, which can all be combined with other motes from Overthrow to create a fancy key for a chest in Destiny 2. However, the eight Visions of the Traveler aren’t especially easy to find, often found tucked away in some corner of each of the Pale Heart’s large regions, so I’ve explained exactly how to get all the Pale Heart Traveler collectibles in Destiny 2 below.All Destiny 2 Traveler collectible locations There are eight Traveler collectibles, known as Visions of the Traveler, to be found while patrolling the Pale Heart, so you can’t miss any during campaign missions unlike the secret Destiny 2 Prismatic Fragments. You must also place each Vision of the Traveler on a podium in the old Speaker’s area of the Lost City Tower – that’s the south of the Tower on the Pale Heart map where you first meet Cayde in …

Former Blizzard president Mike Ybarra has called for fewer game remasters in favor of more new experiences.In a tweet ahead of the PlayStation State of Play last night, Ybarra said that he was “hoping we don’t see a lot of remasters continuing across the industry.” Ybarra’s comments were attached to a picture of Days Gone, remaster rumors of which were circling ahead of last night’s event despite its 2019 release. That rumor wasn’t proven true last night, but the leaked Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered was unveiled in its place, along with several other remaster projects, including Lunar and Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver.Hoping we don’t see a lot of remasters continuing across the industry. I get some enjoy them, but personally want to see sequels and new games/worlds. https://t.co/dE9a4OXelDSeptember 24, 2024Ybarra goes on to explain that while “I get some [people] enjoy” remasters, he’d “personally want to see sequels and new games/worlds.” There’s a definite sense across the industry that getting new IP off the ground is a risky proposition right now, and Sony’s push for live-service multiplayer has also led to several studios squeezing their successful catalogues harder than ev…

Star Wars Outlaws sales have been “softer than expected,” and the lessons learned have been part of why Ubisoft has delayed Assassin’s Creed Shadows to 2025. Alongside that announcement, the Outlaws devs have confirmed that the game is coming to Steam on November 21 alongside its first DLC pack, and they’ve expanded on their plans for free updates to improve the game.The first Star Wars Outlaws DLC pack, Wild Card, is set to launch on November 21, according to a new message from Ubisoft on Twitter. The DLC had previously been announced for a vague ‘fall’ launch. November 21 will also see the game launch on Steam. It had previously been exclusive to Ubisoft’s own launcher and the Epic Games Store on PC, with no clear indication it was going to come to other storefronts. A message from our team to you. pic.twitter.com/wFi3I2tqPxSeptember 25, 2024Wild Card will see Kay take on Lando Calrissian in a high-stakes Sabacc tournament. Creative director Julian Gerighty tells Game File (paywalled) that both this DLC pack and its spring 2025 follow-up are “fairly meaty.”Ubisoft also says in the message to fans that “we’re hard at work creating multiple title updates, which will bring opti…

As Ubisoft works to turn things around after a few bad years, CEO Yves Guillemot reckons making good, “solid” games won’t cut it.On the heels of the Assassin’s Creed Shadows delay which has made Ubisoft’s 2024 noticeably lighter, Guillemot discussed plans for the future. Bear in mind, this past February Guillemot described Assassin’s Creed Mirage as a turning point for the studio’s output as it works to regularly put out good games again – in his words, “the beginning of our turnaround to consistently creating and delivering high-quality, long-lasting games.” Speaking on an investor conference call today, Guillemot reckoned that good just ain’t good enough. “In today’s challenging market and with gamers expecting extraordinary experiences, delivering solid quality is no longer enough,” the CEO said. “We must strive for excellence in all aspects of our work. This will enable the biggest entry in the [Assassin’s Creed] franchise to fully deliver on its ambition, notably by fulfilling the promise of our dual protagonist adventure with Naoe and Yasuke bringing two very different gameplay styles.” This stance – which warrants the immediate counterpoint that, perhap…
