Now the old girl has won me back with Shadow of the Tomb Raider using two things I can’t resist: sad childhood flashbacks and a distinct horror vibe. That’s right, this Peruvian chapter brings the adrenaline with jump scares, human sacrifice, a monstrous warrior tribe and a Lara that has straight up lost her shit. That’s not a problem for Shadow Lara, who is angry, guilty and trying to literally save the world. The tombs are still the most satisfying part of the Tomb Raider universe, and they’re

Shadow of the Tomb Raider is a fantastic adventure, and even bigger than our heroine’s last game. It’s impossible to clear an area first time roundThat lovely 100% completion stat is something many gamers absolutely need to display. Trouble is, you need to push a shoulder button while clinging to a wall with your pick in order to rappel downwards. If you already know which weapon you want, you can just tap the corresponding d-pad direction and pull out, for example, your shotgun. Unlock Weapon T

Star Wars Easter eggs are just about the most highly-guarded secrets in the galaxy. The top-secret Solo: A Star Wars Story cameo was one such thing. Spoilers for Solo: A Star Wars Story are down below so, if you haven’t seen the movie, you might want to take five – unless you want to join the Dark Side, that is. The Darth Maul reveal was a capper on a pretty decent movie, and it’s definitely opened up things for a potentially very exciting sequel. Here’s what that shocking Darth Maul cameo might

Here’s what you need to do to catch ’em all, as it were, in Destiny 2: Forsaken. Collect Visions of LightGaining access to your first new subclass tree is the easy part in Destiny 2: Forsaken. After completing the campaign’s first mission, you’ll receive a milestone to collect 100 Visions of Light, which drop frequently from minibosses across The Tangled Shore. Getting kills with your subclass powers will allow you activate more abilities in the new tree, until you’ve maxed it out across all fou

Here’s a breakdown of the 13 unique Blackout map locations, so you can plan accordingly as you dive down to Earth in your spiffy wingsuit. Call of Duty Blackout map – EstatesWe get to see a sweet sniper shot lined up with the target running around Estates, a lavish mansion with some recognizable landmarks. The fancy driveway and its iconic red spire are straight out of Black Ops 2’s Raid map, and the house from Black Ops 3’s Stronghold map is nearby. Call of Duty Blackout map – Hydro DamThe Hydr

Classic SuitFirst appearance: Amazing Spider-Man #38 (1966)Just like the in-game name suggests, this is the iconic Spider-Man look. You can pick up just about any Spider-Man comic to see this design in action. Noir SuitFirst appearance: Spider-Man Noir #1 (2009)A darker take on the Spider-Man mythos, Spider-Man Noir (though simply called “Spider-Man” in his universe) is basically what happens when someone asks, “What if Spider-Man, but steampunk?” Secret War SuitFirst appearance: Secret War #5 (

We’ve finally got our first look at some Black Ops 4 Blackout gameplay and it actually looks like some hot, beautiful chaos. This is how the old Black Ops multiplayer maps appear…Every where the trailer looks there seems to be an old Black Ops map forming part of the terrain as if this is some huge COD theme park. Even Asylum from World at War is there, suggesting Treyarch is using all of its history, not just Black Ops. … and some previous Black Ops charactersAgain, like the maps we knew Bl

After the massive success of the first SFX Book Con back in February 2018, the eagerly anticipated follow-up is on the way – and it’ll be bigger and longer, with even more top science fiction and fantasy authors. Our sister publication SFX magazine is the world’s number one sci-fi and fantasy mag and has teamed up with top bookshop Foyles once again, for a live event that celebrates science fiction/fantasy novels, and the people who write them. SFX Book Con 2 takes place on Saturday, November 10

And no, I don’t mean more gripping tales of 100 players all trying to kill each other with shopping carts. “One problem that we’ve had with BioWare games is there’s a real reluctance to talk about what you’ve experienced because of the feeling of spoilers,” Darrah said. “But when you look at something like Fortnite, there’s this very shared communal storytelling going on, like with the purple cube or the missile or the meteor showers. That leaves a lot of room for BioWare to drop in and make twe

With the latest expansion to Destiny 2, Forsaken, Bungie has promised a return to the mystery and miasma of the original Destiny in 2014, and our discovery of the recent Mindbender secret chest in the campaign suggests the studio has already lived up to that pledge with aplomb. Unlocking the chest is a simple process, but one that’s easy to miss when blasting through Forsaken’s campaign at full speed, so here’s how to to do it. First off, you’ll need to have access to The Mindbender Adventure in

Not only is Red Dead Redemption 2 one of our most anticipated new games of 2018 , it’s Rockstar’s first game built exclusively for the latest generation of consoles. But those were still just upgraded versions of a game that was originally built for PS3 and Xbox 360, with the associated constraints. A little bit of everything, according to Rockstar San Diego art director Josh Bass (via The Hollywood Reporter ). “It’s the sense of life the game has that most sets it apart,” Garbut said. Until the

There are a whopping 23 members of the Van der Linde Gang, and it’s quite the colorful assortment of characters for you to interact with. Image 6 of 23 “I believe there’s winners and losers… and nothing else besides.” Micah Bell A career criminal and hitman. Image 8 of 23 “Don’t try anything stupid and we won’t do anything unkind.” Bill Williamson An ex-soldier discharged from the army, possibly dishonorably.

The Turtle Beach Stealth 300 is a great headset for under $100. Comfort is just as important as performance when it comes to gaming headsets, and Turtle Beach aims to satisfy in both departments with its affordable Stealth 300 headset. Turtle Beach Stealth 300 – DesignThe Stealth 300 is off to a good start with a lightweight, matte black plastic frame that allows for hours of wear with no discomfort. Compared to my go-to Sony Gold Wireless 2.0 headphones, the Stealth 300 headset is much easier t

Metal Gear Solid was first released for the Sony PlayStation in September 1998 (in Japan, anyway – the game would make its way to the US and EU by October 1998 and February 1999, respectively). But with series creator Hideo Kojima now independent and publisher Konami currently quiet on the future of the franchise, it falls to fans to celebrate 20 years of tactical espionage action in style.

Maybe the scope of Cyberpunk 2077 seems limited compared to The Witcher 3 . “I can’t talk about numbers but I’d look at Witcher 3,” Mills said when asked about how many quests will appear in Cyberpunk 2077 in total. “Something like Witcher 3 is what we’re aiming for.” But with more than 400 quests in total (by Twinfinite ‘s accounting) appearing in The Witcher 3 – and the game famously taking hundreds of hours to 100-percent complete – any more than that just sounds excessive for Cyberpunk 2077.

We knew the end was coming in Game of Thrones season 8 – but it might be coming even sooner than we imagined for one major character. According to The Hollywood Reporter’s newsletter (H/T Harper’s Bazaar), Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (better known as Jaime Lannister to you and I) is receiving a whopping $1 million per episode – but is only appearing in four out of the final six episodes of Game of Thrones season 8. Of course, this doesn’t mean it has to be a death. Never has that been more pronounced

The good folks over at Netflix are very busy bees indeed. The company only just announced that Henry Cavill, of Superman fame, will be headlining its upcoming adaption of The Witcher fantasy novels as its lead character, Geralt of Rivia. That was celebration (or consternation, depending on your opinions of Cavill) enough for most, but not three days later, another juicy piece of info has been revealed, and it comes via the show’s very own official Netflix webpage. As confirmed by showrunner Laur

If you’re playing that new Scum game on Steam, you probably have been confronted by a sudden need for your character to pee, or poop, or vomit. Select “Piss,” “Poop,” or “Vomit,” depending on what your character needs. Performing all three at once is too dangerous of a maneuver for even the most powerful Scum character to attempt right now, but maybe someday. Your character’s first bowel movement yielding a useful item is just one of the many, er, benefits you get for buying the Scum Supporter P
