I’m Shocked Stranger Things’ Best Spin-Off is this Free 81 Metacritic Game

Okay, so there’s a ton of Stranger Things stuff everywhere, right? I mean, Eggo waffles are flying off the shelves and everyone was rocking Hellfire Club shirts after Season 4. It’s huge in pop culture, but honestly, it feels weird that it hasn’t really blown up in gaming. There have been a few Stranger Things games, but none of them have become massive hits. It’s a bummer because the show feels perfect for a game, and I even heard one promising one got canceled! Still, that doesn’t mean the games aren’t worth checking out. There’s one in particular, called Stranger Things: The Game from 2017, that I think is actually really good – it might be the best thing we’ve got right now, even if a lot of people missed it when it first came out.

Code Vein 2 Dials Up Everything for a Bigger Soulslike Sequel

At last year’s Summer Game Fest, I got a preview of Code Vein 2, and the developers’ aim was clear: to improve upon the original Code Vein and create a high-quality, triple-A game. After playing a significant portion of the sequel, it’s evident that Bandai Namco has both expanded on the features of the first game and stayed true to its core essence. While it’s too early to say if the final game will fully deliver on this promising start, I’m impressed with the direction they’re taking, especially when it comes to making the game challenging.

But now, I’m reading that NVIDIA has a plan to tackle this shortage, which is good news for us gamers!

Bitcoin’s Wild Ride: Is $100,000 Just Around the Corner? 🚀💰

Who knew numbers could dance like that?

New Dark Fantasy RPG is a Mix of Hades, Vampire Survivors, & Blasphemous

One of the first things you’ll likely notice about Ember and Blade is its beautiful art style. It uses a fixed, angled perspective similar to Hades, but with a vibrant 3D look and glowing visual effects that call to mind Furi. This bright and dynamic design makes facing large groups of enemies much more visually appealing than in many other similar games, where chaotic battles can become messy and hard to follow. The game also features gorgeous, hand-drawn character portraits, giving it a similar aesthetic feel to Hades. Ember and Blade isn’t just visually stunning, though – it also has solid gameplay to match its looks.
