Quick Links When you reach the desolate, sandy region of Yellow Wind Ridge in Chapter Two ofBlack Myth: Wukong, it won’t be long until you encounter the tiny, rat-like King of the Flowing Sands and his two gigantic sons. Later on, you’ll meet the Third Prince in Chapter Three, locked up in a cell in the Pagoda Realm. He appears startlingly different to his kin in Chapter Two, maintaining his human appearance while his brothers and father have turned into rats....

Building characters inHonkai: Star Railis usually a fairly straightforward process, as there are almost always build options that cater directly to each character’s kit. Picking the right Relics and Light Cones for a character like Moze, for instance, is a simple prospect thanks to his kit taking advantage of a set of popular mechanics. Moze is all about follow-up attacks, and he applies enough debuffs that there are a few different build and Light Cone options that work well and a few that work the best....

Summary Like previous Farming Sim titles, the most common way to make money inFarming Simulator 25is bygrowing and selling crops. The game offers contracts you’re able to do to earn a fixed income, and most of these contracts are either growing, plowing, or harvesting jobs that pay extremely well. If you want to take your profits to the next level, though,you can use crops to make processed goods, like sugar and bread, via production chains....

Summary It’s not a new phenomenon for fighting games to allow players to be creative, but usually that creation is limited in a lot of ways. Take Soulcalibur for instance; while you can create your own character in one of the most in-depth creation suites in gaming, you have no control over the character’s moveset. You just pick a weapon type and that’s the end of it. Fortunately, for those who like to have more control over their attacks, there’s a range of fighting games out there that allow players to truly create their own movesets....

Quick Links Submachine guns are incredibly powerful within their optimal range inCall of Duty: Black Ops 6, and the KSV has the fortune of being a four-shot kill to any part of the body, putting it squarely in the upper-mid tier of SMGs in the game. That power only grows when you give it the best attachments and loadout possible, making it capable of some absurd damage. The best KSV loadout has a few things going for it, regardless of whether you have five or eight attachments....

Summary When we start playing a new game, with some rare exceptions, we’re playing the bulk of what the game represents. No one picks up Pokemon just to cook curry at camp, or Skyrim to pick locks. But sometimes, a game can make minigames that are so enticing, they become more enthralling than the bulk of the game they’re actually from. In fact, plenty of games have reached the heights of their success not just by merit of their core content, but that of their side content as well....

Quick Links WhenHonkai: Star Railwas first launched, the Break-based play style didn’t exist since there weren’t any characters that could get value from it. The only time you’d build Break Effect on a character is when you want to trigger a big DoT on the enemies with them, which fell out of meta fairly quickly. Because of this, it’s surprising to believe that this is now one of the strongest playstyles in the game, further buffed with Fugue’s release....

Ever since being founded in the late 90s, Retro Studios has established itself as one of the most important developers in Nintendo’s global portfolio. The Texas-based studio has been responsible for some of the most beloved Nintendo games of this century, successfully modernising older franchises to be enjoyed by a whole new generation of gamers. And while their output isn’t exactly the most prolific, when you look at the games that Retro Studios has developed, there’s hardly a dud in sight....

My Hero Academiais one of the hottest anime of this generation, a trailblazer with compelling characters in both its Heroes and Villains. Although itsmanga has officially come to an endafter a ten-year run, there still remains a final eighth season dropping next year that we can look forward to. But with that being said, it’s high time to look back at all the seasons of the show thus far. The series has conquered hearts with its intriguing plot lines and diverse array of characters, their stories well-told throughout all seven seasons....

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6prides itself on having a diverse set of weapons and gear to help cater for tons of customized loadouts. Aside from choosing the right primary and secondary weapons, you have to choose a viable lethal, tactical,field upgrade, perk combo, andwildcard. Among these, what truly makes a skilled player stand out is how they use their lethal and tactical equipment, especially the latter. Unlike lethal equipment, tacticals are remarkably versatile, offering distinct abilities to reveal enemy positions, debuff opponents, aid in quick escapes, and more....

Avatar is a franchise that has perhaps one of the best world buildings in an animated series ever. Though it started off as a kid’s cartoon,even adults appreciate the effort that went into making the series what it is today. The bending aspect of the show lends to its popularity and every fan has their favorite of the four elements. But when it comes to the benders themselves, fans have long argued about who has been the strongest on and off-screen....

Summary The recently-revealedTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown uniquely (and depressingly!) starts things off with Splinter and Shredder already having been killed. For most of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' time in the world of gaming,the radical four have been known for one thing - arcade beat ‘em ups. While they still hold the crown in the brawler space, developers have recently started branching out and putting the group into other genres,like Splintered Fate’s take on RougelikesandMutants Unleashed with its Persona inspirations....

Quick Links There are lots of areas inDragon Quest 3 Remakeyou simply don’t have to go. The game will give you some rough guidance, but it will rarely through a quest marker in your face that tells you exactly where to go. That makes it great to explore, and much easier to get lost. It also makes collecting the many orbs you need a rather lengthy task, though you may get some assistance here - the Echo Flute....
