It's been a bit of a wait, but official mod support for Darkest Dungeon 2 is about to arrive - although it'll be coming piece by piece rather than as a complete suite.

The radioactive dust is just starting to settle on the fracas that was the Helldivers 2 PSN account-linking debacle, but you can feel the collective sigh of relief from players and developers alike now that Sony has relented and dropped the requirement. As peace has once again spread across the land, some Helldivers 2 players have suggested a cape design commemorating the event, emblazoned with a pattern based on the massive spike in negative Steam reviews that ultimately brought the whole thing to a head.

2016 was a very good year for FPS and third person shooter games, seeing the release of everything from Superhot, Mafia 3, and Overwatch to new Doom and Hitman games, Battlefield 1, and a remaster of the first Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Alongside all of these launches was Titanfall 2, an FPS from Respawn Entertainment that served as sequel to a multiplayer only first instalment and a game that went somewhat overlooked at the time. Fortunately, Titanfall 2 is still available and is currently discounted heavily on Steam. Continue reading Grab one of the best FPS games of the last decade for ..read more

It's just about time to start getting hyped up about Elden Ring again, and to help that happen, the game's publisher is holding a video creation contest. Whoever makes the best five-minute Elden Ring video will receive a ten-foot statue of Messmer the Impaler, the gaunt antagonist we met in Shadow of the Erdtree's recent trailers.

Chrono Ark was bound to grab an audience's attention. Its visuals, which feature colorful Persona 5 style character portraits, do a good job of catching the eye on their own. But it's the game's design concept that really helps it stick out. In an era where PC players can't seem to get enough of card games (see: Balatro and Slay the Spire 2) and roguelikes (see: Hades 2), Chrono Ark combines both of those genres with RPG game party building and storytelling in order to offer players something they seem to be very excited to dig into.

The "corpse run" can be among the tensest experiences in gaming: Having just lost all your precious gear, you need to get back to the spot where you died in order to retrieve it, or else you’ll lose it forever. In Abiotic Factor, that's sometimes been an impossible task due to the presence of extreme hazards or weird level geometry. Fortunately, the latest hotfix addresses this - and will sometimes resort to shipping your body back to the office cafeteria. Continue reading Abiotic Factor will helpfully put your corpse in the cafeteria MORE FROM PCGAMESN: Best co-op games, Best PC FPS games, B ..read more

What are the best Hades 2 settings for PC? It should be no surprise that Hades 2 is a simple game to run on just about any gaming PC, but don't underestimate the value of a well-optimized game regardless of whether it's indie or triple-A. Hades 2 runs great on Steam Deck, and its system requirements are a very low bar to clear. We're enamored with this highly anticipated sequel so far, calling it "a near-perfect roguelike" in our review. So let us show you how to get the best out of this vibrant roguelike across its video and gameplay settings. Continue reading Best Hades 2 settings for ..read more

Gray Zone Warfare has been doing very well. The tactical FPS, reminiscent of sim style shooters like Arma 3, Ready or Not, Hell Let Loose, and Insurgency: Sandstorm, came out in Early Access on Steam last week and sold a ton of copies in a very short period of time. The success it's enjoyed so far doesn't seem to be slowing down, with the game's player count on Steam rising to the point that it's far outpacing some of the biggest games in its genre. Continue reading New tactical FPS blows past Arma and Ready or Not’s Steam records MORE FROM PCGAMESN: Best FPS games, Gray Zone Warfare System R ..read more

Is Hades 2 Steam Deck compatible? Given the history that developer Supergiant has with Valve's handheld, it's no surprise to see that Hades 2 also runs incredibly well on the portable console. In what is shaping up to be one of the best Steam Deck games you can play, much like the original, Hades 2 asks nothing of players other than to boot and play.

Is Zagreus in Hades 2? The first-born son of Hades was the main character in the previous game, but in the sequel, we play as his sister Melinoe, a witch with an all-new set of powers. Many fans will appreciate the new protagonist, but it does raise the question of what happened to Zagreus. With Hades 2 going into early access, it doesn't look like we're getting any answers to this riddle anytime soon. We do know, however, that some of the Hades 2 gods have been swapped around, with the likes of Dionysis and Ares seemingly absent, while new faces Hestia and Hephaestus make their debut. We've ..read more
