Microsoft had another round of layoffs just this summer, and as a result, several game projects were cancelled. These included the planned remake of Perfect Dark, Rare’s Everwild, and a years-in-development, unannounced game from the creators of The Elder Scrolls Online.
Ever since the remastered version of Oblivion came out, Elder Scrolls players have been discovering incredible and often unexpected ways to play – from incredibly fast travel across the game world to unbelievably powerful spells. One Reddit user, “Hippos_R_Us,” is showcasing their own unique creation, and asked others if they’re impressed or horrified by it in a recent post featuring a gameplay clip.
Monster Hunter Wilds features a detailed multiplayer system with many choices to explore. You can play with friends using options like Private Lobbies and Linked Parties, among others. If you prefer to play alone, the game also offers support hunters – AI companions who can assist you. These AI hunters do a good amount of damage and frequently take the monster’s attention, which can be very helpful. Because of this, you might even consider joining a lobby that includes both your friends and support hunters.
You take on the role of Soul, an assassin wrongly accused of killing his leader. This demo starts with him at the base of a canyon. Almost immediately, we run into an enemy camp. There’s no gentle introduction to combat – two soldiers rush us, then a spear-wielding rider on horseback appears, and an archer starts targeting us from a tower. I draw my sword, ready to fight and find a good position to strike.
Honestly, as a fan, the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2‘s Mysteria Ecclesiae DLC is already shaping up to be a huge story addition. But it needs to deliver on the gameplay front too – it *should* really bring a lot more to the table. If this is truly going to be the end of Henry’s story, it needs to go out with a bang, not just fade away. It really needs to leave a lasting impression on the Kingdom Come: Deliverance series, especially if they’re planning a major new game afterward.
Fans noticed last month that descriptions for the physical edition of Oblivion Remastered had changed. They now state the game is just a code inside a box, not a traditional disc – a situation many gaming communities are facing as physical copies become less common. Talk about the game not actually being physical has started up again recently.
This is a small update focused on bug fixes. Gamers will receive it as the Monster Hunter Wilds hotfix update 1.030.020, and the download size will be relatively small on all platforms.
Before the main battle begins, here’s a short checklist of things we suggest you have ready beforehand:
The poster, visible below, features a long-haired, somewhat unkempt Elordi wearing a fur coat. A closer look reveals the monster’s face is disturbingly constructed – either from stitched-together pieces of skin taken from different bodies, or completely decayed. Both options are equally unsettling! We can also see his hand has no skin, exposing the tendons underneath. Given that Guillermo del Toro doesn’t usually stick to conventions, I’m pleased to see a Frankenstein’s monster that moves away from the usual neck bolts and XXXX. You can view the poster below.
In a funny move, Bethesda announced the physical release of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered by presenting it as an item *within* the Oblivion Remastered game itself, shown on the inventory screen. The company wrote, “When you’ve cleared two goblin caves, an underwater shipwreck, and the entire town of Hackdirt, and you still can’t remember where you picked this item up,” playfully referencing how players often forget item locations.
