According to The Register, Huang will take home $21.35 million. Gee I don’t know about anyone reading this, but I’d be pretty happy with over…

What you may not realize is that add-on also defanged vampires to a degree. Dawnguard reduced the damage caused by a couple of varieties of vampires, disabled a perk that let boss-level vamps ignore a percentage of armor while wielding maces, and changed the frost resistance and fire weakness stats of all vampires. What’s more, the effect of hitting stage four of…

Since Tekken 8 was announced during Sony’s State of Play stream in 2022, a bunch of its fighters have been revealed. Fan favorite Jun Kazuma returns, as do Jin Kazama, Nina Williams, and other legacy characters. Like reliable Paul, who has been in every Tekken game since the first—though he’s aged along the way and his hair doesn’t look like a tube any more. So it’s no big surprise that the latest fighter announced is Hwoarang, the Blood Talon, who Akira-slides his way onto the stage in the latest reveal trailer on a motorbike so you know he thinks he’s…

Fortnite has temporarily had leaderboards before, with limited-time modes like Solo Showdown and Blitz Showdown adding more competitive options, and Arena mode has its Hype Score and Bus Fare, but now the long-running battle royale is adding a way to determine your worth by labeling yourself Silver or Gold or whatever. As the Fortnite Team at Epic has announced, Arena is being discontinued and ranked play will arrive in the v24.40 update. Rank improvement will be based on the number of kills a team or solo player scores in a match (with kills later in the match and kills of…

I come to you, PC Gamer reader, hat in hand to report once again that Fallout/Outer Worlds co-creator and Troika Games co-founder, Tim Cain, has said something in a YouTube vlog that blew my damn mind. He’s already regaled us with tales of a Lord of the Rings RPG that never was, “the true purpose of the Vaults in Fallout,” and the rough plans for a Vampire: the Masquerade – Bloodlines sequel/expansion set in Barstow and Vegas. A few days ago, he also dished on helping train a US Department of Defense AI to play grognard holy grail and “The…

​ Mii lovers, never give up hope, as it turns out that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom still uses them to make its NPCs. Ah, Miis. Easily the best thing to come out of the Wii, they were an incredibly fun and silly way to make versions of you and your friends, even if they’re pretty limited in what you can actually do. Still, they left a lasting impression on Wii owners, as they still exist right up to now, even having relevance thanks to the port of Miitopia on Nintendo Switch in 2021. One thing you…
