So, here’s the situation. EA invited loads of journalists and influencers to try out Battlefield 2042 over three evening sessions. Each session focused on one of the game’s core modes: All Out Warfare, Hazard Zone, and Portal. This meant we got roughly three to four hours of hands-on time with the game’s various slices, but in a strictly controlled environment. For the most part, it was good! But ultimately, EA decided what we played and when....

Monitor technology doesn’t advance as quickly as CPUs or GPUs do, which means that some of the best monitors are still up to standard years after release. The downside is that prices stay higher for longer, and good deals can be hard to come by; the upside is that a good, discounted monitor bought on Cyber Monday could last you for years. What have we got for you? We’ve got your bargain 1080p screens, we’ve got your ultrawide boys, we’ve got your 4K beasts with heightened refresh rates....

We’ll also explain how to spend your Paragon points upon reaching level 60.

While each of the Elden Ring classes only determines how you start, not how you go on, it’s still an important choice. The starting armour of some classes, for instance, can only be acquired far later on in the game if you don’t choose that class. In this guide we’ll walk you through each of the classes in Elden Ring, explaining their starting stats and equipment, and the kind of playstyle they’re best suited for so that you can pick the best class for your needs....

Gaming mice deals Let’s start with mice. Gaming Week includes some of the best gaming mice on the market from the likes of SteelSeries, Corsair, Razer and Logitech. The G203 Lightsync is Katharine’s favourite gaming mouse on a budget, offering a comfortable shape, excellent build quality and a modern optical sensor. If you’re looking to spend a bit more, the G305 and G502 Lightspeed offer convenient, faster-than-wired wireless. If you haven’t used the G502 before, it’s loved by RPS readers for its ergonomic shape, high button count and incredibly satisfying dual-mode scroll wheel, which can be set to either spin for years with a single touch, or become incredibly tactile for laser-accurate inputs in fast-paced games....

Wireless mice used to have a bad rap among gaming circles, as their wireless technology wasn’t quite as fast or responsive as mice that were directly wired into your PC. Thankfully, wireless standards have got to a point now where response times and their overall performance is nigh-on identical to having a proper wired gaming mouse, giving us even more options to choose from when it comes to buying a new gaming mouse....

In this Y-wing loadout guide: Best Y-wing loadout in Star Wars: Squadrons How to use our Y-wing loadout Best Y-wing loadout in Star Wars: Squadrons The Y-wing in its current state has the potential to be the strongest ship in the entire game thanks to its fantastic survivability and the ability to attach some of the strongest weapons to its hull. Below I’ll walk you through a top-tier Y-wing loadout, and why it works so well against pretty much any type of ship in the Empire’s fleet....

“I made the first prototype for Where Cards Fall ten years ago in my college dorm room.” says Game Band founder Sam Rosenthal. “This game grew with me for the better part of the last decade, and I never imagined so many talented hands would help bring it to life. We couldn’t be more excited for Switch and PC players to experience our story for the very first time.” “Where Cards Fall is a slice of life story where you build houses of cards to bring formative memories to life,” Game Band say....

Can’t say I have any enemies myself. None that aren’t vague concepts like “masculinity” or “the pressing threat of mortality” or “mushrooms”, anyway. Ancient Enemy is a deckbuilding RPG from Grey Alien Games “in the spirit of masterpieces such as Darkest Dungeon and Slay The Spire”. Romp around ancient Britain, building up ridiculous spells to batter monsters and ancient wizards, that sorta stuff. It’s very much in line with the developers’ previous work, Shadowhand and Regency Solitaire....

Despite this universal truth, MW2 can be a toughie on older PC hardware: even graphics cards listed among the recommended system requestions need quality cuts to get a stable 60fps at 1080p. In this guide I’ll be showing you how various GPUs perform and where, precisely, the make those cuts if needed. If you want to skip straight to my recommended settings guide, click those words you just read. Otherwise, read on for a closer look at MW2’s official system specs, and more on how it runs on PC....

Watch the trailer below. “Sometimes the only way to put out the flames… is with more fire,” begins the narration. Someone please take away that man’s lighter. Vanguard was shown to press in a private demo, and Eurogamer report that developers Sledgehammer Games started the presentation by addressing the sexual harassment allegations that have been levied against Activion Blizzard in the past month. Studio head Aaron Halon referred to the stories shared as “simply devastating....

As is the battle pass way, you’ll get a few freebie items by playing during the season, though the bulk of rewards are yours when you choose to pay for the season one battle pass. On the freebie side you’ve got two new guns: the Mac-10 SMG at tier 15 and the Groza Assault Rifle at tier 31. Higher up the ladder is a the “base jumper” skin for Russell Adler at tier 90....

Can you sell cars in Cyberpunk 2077? Given how hard it is to make money (check out our money making guide here), you’d hope there was an option to sell back your vehicles in Cyberpunk 2077. Unfortunately, this is not the case. You cannot sell cars, or vehicles of any kind. This is a huge bummer, but just means you’ll need to be more careful when buying cars, making sure you absolutely want to fork out the cash....

Its latest big update came out last week, and already threatens to consume every hour of my days. Now is a perfect time to give it a try, even if you, like me, find zombies boring and dislike roguelikes. It’s that good. You can replace the zombies with dinosaurs. You can play it with magical spells added, or medieval weapons, or ramped up mutated zombies. You can switch all the monsters (save for normal wildlife) off entirely, and live in its post-apocalyptic cities, remote farms, and forests (an optional desert setting is still in the early experimental stage) forever....

I thought this DLC would just be about creating parks and recreational areas, but the idea that I could turn whole streets into car free zones is enormously appealing. Mostly because I wish more towns and cities would follow the example and do the same in the real world. According to the press release, pedestrian streets will be free of “most vehicles”, and you can enact three new zone-specific policies for your cities....

The story begins when a flotilla of refugee ships turns up at Citizen Sleeper’s interstellar outpost, Erlin’s Eye. You’ll need to help some new characters who manage to get onto the station before quarantine prevents them from boarding. The episode introduces Eshe, the captain of a ship called the Climbing Briar, who gets caught up in the refugee crisis that starts to endanger the whole station. There’s also another newb called Peake – not Tim – who is a bit more approachable than their captain....

Cloud Gardens’ series of puzzle-box dioramas perfectly convey the idea of rejuvenation. Each scene presents a small corner of the wasteland, devoid of human life: an abandoned car park, an empty playground, a building’s rooftop. From there, it’s up to you to do some post-apocalyptic decorating, growing seeds and placing debris. It’s a suprisingly meditative game coming from the same developer that made the often intense micro-strategy of Kingdom Two Crowns....

Humble Games have actually bought the rights to Monaco, they said in today’s announcement, making this “the first new wholly owned title in the Humble Games portfolio”. It’s still made by Pocketwatch Games, mind, with Monacoman Andy Schatz still on as creative director. “I want to make the ultimate heist simulator,” Andy Schatz said during the Humble Games Showcase today. “I want to make a game that you can go back to and you can play it over and over again, and figure out new paths, and play it with your friends, case the joint, really figure out the best way to break into a place, and do it....
