Enotria: the Last Song is a lot like other action RPGs that are influenced by From Software. You carefully explore dungeons, equip enemies with a variety of weapon types, and attempt to avoid dying horribly while doing so. By this point, everything should be very recognizable, but developer Jyamma Games really tries to liven up the dish with everything else surrounding that core. Concepts that are effective, such as transforming the scene from a shady bog and gloomy cave into the sparkling light of sunny mountainsides and vibrant cities, truly do work. Things that don’t, such as the excessive number…

Metro series developer 4A Games will stay part of Embracer Group following Saber Interactive, the producer of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, declining to pursue its option to acquire the studio. 4A Games was one of the companies that Saber had the option to acquire when it split off from Embracer through Beacon Interactive, which is under the ownership of Saber co-founder Matthew Karch. Embracer declared that this is no longer taking place. Zen Studios, the Hungarian company behind Zen Pinball and Pinball FX, along with 4A Games will now stay at Embracer. “We are happy with the closure of…

I experienced some of Crimson Desert’s intense boss fights firsthand last month. Although the quick fighting system and amazing creature designs left an impression on me, I was still interested in learning more about Crimson Desert’s gameplay and larger environment. Between such titanic battles, what transpires? I now have a far better idea thanks to a 53-minute gameplay video that the developer, Pearl Abyss, has exclusively made accessible to view here on Gamexta. If the combat in Crimson Desert is similar to that of God of War and Dragon’s Dogma, then the game’s overall gameplay is more akin to contemporary…

The online videos of players curving bullets around walls, automatically aiming at adversaries, and other cheating behaviors in the Valve shooter Deadlock have previously exposed the game’s cheating issues. According to 80 Level, a Reddit user named MintDoe shared a game replay that seems to depict numerous cheaters taking part in a Deadlock match. The accused initiates the video by precisely timing a leap to evade an invisible Lightning Ball. They then open fire on a wall where their opponents materialize. This is a classic sign of an aim bot mod, which is a kind of trick where adversaries are…

Activision has stated that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will not be providing campaign early access. Activision stated in a statement provided to CharlieIntel that the numerous Call of Duty developers are concentrated on the game’s October 25, 2024 release. For those who pre-ordered any of the most recent Call of Duty titles—including the unpopular Modern Warfare 3 campaign from last year—Activision has made campaign early access available. Early access periods, which allowed players to play through the story and jump straight into multiplayer and zombies, usually started one week before the official debut. Activision has taken a different…

The only goal of the first-person shooter I Am Your Beast is to kill people quickly. You could theoretically still manage to make it to each bite-sized level’s exit intact by stumbling around aimlessly like an Australian breakdancer at the Olympics, but achieving the best completion time requires repeated runs to chisel out the most effective killing paths gradually. The result is a fast-paced, three-hour-long explosion of blood spray and cel-shaded bullets, enhanced by incredibly smooth controls and an engaging soundtrack that makes you want to keep playing. The only real drawback is that the unquenchable desire for speed leaves…

Renowned Nintendo developer and producer of the Zelda series, Eiji Aonuma, has disclosed that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was nearly named Tears of the Dragon instead. Aonuma stated in the Japanese art book for Tears of the Kingdom that the team decided against using that name in case it would give away a significant story aspect to fans. Nintendo Everything translated his remarks. Nintendo believed the Tears of the Dragon would overshadow the Light Dragon that soars above Hyrule and diminish the impact of the unexpected revelation that (spoiler alert!) Zelda is indeed the dragon. It…

Developer Bungie has announced “significant adjustments” for Destiny 2 to win back players during difficult times for the company. According to Bungie, the live service first-person shooter, which is presently seeing its lowest concurrent player count ever on the PC platform Steam, will be implementing a new strategy going ahead that will see the release of four significant free content updates and two medium-sized expansions per year. Through a new multi-year saga, the introduction of a non-linear tale, greater structural innovation, and notable enhancements to basic game activities and rewards, Bungie stated that this development intends to improve the player…

In honor of Starfield’s first birthday, Bethesda has released some fresh information on the game’s impending expansion, Shattered Space. Shattered Space, the game’s first expansion, will be released on September 30, 2024. The sci-fi role-playing shooter was released on September 6, 2023, and was Bethesda’s first new franchise in a long time. Bethesda hinted at “much more coming” to Starfield beyond Shattered Space in a tweet, but for the time being, the company only shared some new information about the expansion. The addition of more than fifty new places to find and explore around Va’ruun’kai—the new planet that players can…
