Technically, Sony aren’t calling it proper Dualsense at the moment, but each VR controller will come with an adaptive trigger button “that adds palpable tension when pressed, similar to what’s found in the Dualsense controller,” according to the PlayStation Blog. “If you’ve played a PS5 game, you’ll be familiar with the tension in the L2 or R2 buttons when you press them, such as when you’re drawing your bow to fire an arrow....

The station grows people and places stored personalities into new bodies, which means you have a large supply of disposable souls. With Rimworld and Dwarf Fortress as inspirations, managing your vat-grown crew of humans is as important as putting the doors on the right way and connecting all the power systems. They have memories and needs. According to the devs: “Some colonists prefer eating nutrition bricks on the toilet, while others like to drink and socialize in the bar....

“We listened to the community’s feedback and decided to prioritize an earlier release so that Steam players could enjoy the game ASAP,” Mossmouth say in their announcement. “Unfortunately, that means we won’t be able to launch with online multiplayer and we’ll be provisionally removing the ‘Online Co-op’ tag from the store, so as not to mislead people. Sorry, we know that’s disappointing for players who were excited to jump right into online co-op on day one....

The devs explained in a blog post this week that they’re trimming the calendar section of their public roadmap tracker doodad because the schedule was causing upset every time a feature was delayed. That Release View had plenty of warning that only plans for the nearest update were mostly solid, and that plans got hazier beyond that, and that features might always slip until later. But every time something did slip, people noticed, and some weren’t best pleased....

In December, you’ll be able to hop in the cockpit of the New Republic’s B-Wing or the Empire’s TIE Defender. “The B-wing will be categorized as a Bomber-class starfighter and the TIE defender will be a Fighter, each being able to use the components relevant to their faction and class, but they’ll also come with their own unique aspects in line with what you’d expect from them, such as the B-wing with its gyro-cockpit and swiveling wings and the TIE defender with its shields,” say Motive Studios The other big ticket item for December is the addition of custom matches....

The screenshots will probably look familiar to anyone who’s been keeping up with the Steam Deck, as it matches what we’ve already seen in official images (as well as hands-on videos from those who, unlike RPS, could go visit Valve during a global pandemic). Actually, the Storage Manager is worth highlighting - I like how colourfully it breaks down the amount of space that game, DLC and Workshop content are respectively hogging....

As spotted by the SteamDeck community on Reddit, 67 games have so far received a rating. 39 games have received “Verified” status, including Death Stranding, Cuphead, Hollow Knight, Dark Souls 3 and Into The Breach. 23 more have been marked “Playable”, including Slay The Spire, while five have been marked “Unsupported.” Valve spoke to us last year about how the compatibility program works. While much has been made of the Steam Deck’s ability to run almost anything, some games will obviously work better than others....

There’s a lot of scrapping in this trailer, across a number of the game’s early locations. Most notably, lots of areas surrounding the Louvre which you’ll explore once during the day, then backtrack through when you’ve got the grapple hook. This lets you prod previously inaccessible areas, by swinging up to warped balconies or precarious ledges. And when you’re being started on by a nasty robot, you can slap ’em down with it too, as it extends like a whip from your shoe....

You take control of the USA or USSR during the big tiff, taking turns to invest political capital into attempts to sway the relations of other nations round to your ideology - or at least paying it enough lipservice that they’re effectively Finlandized. Precipice is far simpler than Balance Of Power, and all the better for it. It can be grasped in the space of half an hour. The main things you’ll be doing are making diplomatic overtures to non-hostile nations, and destabilising or even outright attacking hostile ones, with the goal of what the winners would call regime change and everyone else would call installing your puppet....

Capcom’s senior manager for social media and community, Andy Wong, gave more details in a blog post on Playstations’s website. Previous modes, including arcade, training, and local and online versus, will be returning. However, two new modes, World Tour and Battle Hub will be making an appearance. World Tour seems to encompass the open world wandering of the trailer. It’s a “is a single-player immersive story mode” that “allows you to leave your own legacy within Street Fighter 6 with your player avatar....

“If you believe in collectible physical goods, I don’t know why you wouldn’t believe in collectible digital goods,” Zelnick tells GI. “And blockchain authorization, which is what an NFT really is, is one way – not the only way – to authenticate the fact something is singular is rare.” “So I’m a big believer, but what I don’t believe is that just because something is digital or an NFT that it suddenly has value and/or has value that will be increased in the future....

Techland’s Twitch channel will host the event tonight, so make sure to tune in. What will we see? Who the flip knows? But the announcement promises “more about Dying Light 2!”, and we were promised that the game will be released in 2021. Surely, surely, now is the time to bring us all the footage that has been saved up for the past few years? It has been a long time since we’ve heard about the game....

The game apparently isn’t telling the main story, but does star one of the show’s characters. Camina Drummer wasn’t part of the show from the start, but she did grow to become the best character with the best begrudging friendship. Her actor, Cara Gee, is voicing her in the game too. “In the near future on the outskirts of the asteroid belt, a bloody mutiny breaks loose on the Artemis,” Telltale explain about the game....

I’m not frustrated that the game doesn’t currently have a more concrete conclusion. Temtem signs off with carefully selected vignettes designed to show what the game has to offer in the long run: a vivid, vibrant world that will keep expanding. There are only a few quests you can’t finish in the early access alpha, all of which bleed into Kisiwa, the third island due to be added in a future update....

You’re facing off in the dark against the titular nefarious and demonic engine, armed only with a small yellow loco of your own. Exploring the island by train means you’ll run into other human residents, some of whom bestow weaponry to fight Charles upon you, while others are dangerous cultists. You’ll have to watch out for appearances from Charles though, who’ll try to end your journey permanently. Looting locations on the island grants you scraps to improve your locomotive’s armour, too, which help protect against attacks by Charles....

TFT guide Our TFT guide will go over all the basics to playing the game, such as how to download and run TFT, what TFT is, and some tips and strategies for the game. There will also be links to our other TFT guides, including links to our item cheat sheet and the best comps to use in every game as of Set 3 - Galaxies. Contents How to play TFT What is TFT?...

TFT Set 3 synergies guide In this TFT Set 3 champions guide, we go over all of the new origins and classes that are coming to Teamfight Tactics in the new set (or season to the rest of us). Several champions have also been allocated to these traits, so we will be listing which ones are available for each one. The new champions are not the only new things coming to TFT, as Riot have shown off details on another big change to the new season....

The area in and around my desk is a nonsensical melange of things, a place that would probably deal you +12 psychological damage if you approached without the necessary preparation. But after playing A Little To The Left I can rebrand my desk as being a deliberate series of whimsical organising puzzles.

The 10 Best games like Dark Souls Death’s Door Outward Mortal Shell Blasphemous Ashen Nioh 2 The Surge 2 Sekiro Dead Cells Hollow Knight I’m not here to define the prerequisites of the genre or discuss whether it should even exist. I just want to pick a few of the wondrous horrors off the ground and put ‘em in a big terrarium with reinforced glass, so you can appreciate them. If it helps, think of them not as “soulslikes” but as curious offspring you might like if you enjoyed big daddy souls....

Instead, it’s a realistic map of the city in which you can edit every building. You can tear down 18th century apartments and replace them with a park or a gaudy skyscrapers, if you wish, then customise every detail. I propose a name for this new genre: a buildingbuilder. It’s out now on Steam. The game’s various websites and Steam posts talk about wanting to create something anyone can use, but with the flexibility of real technical drawing tools....
