Assetto Corsa Competizione has released into Early Access today, with Italian studio Kunos Simulazioni expecting the game to release in full this coming February. A follow-up to the original 2014, widely loved for the depth and detail of its simulation, Assetto Corsa Competizione is developed in Unreal Engine 4 and will “allow players to experience the real atmosphere of the FIA ​​GT3 homologated championship”, according to an announcement. “The final game will include all cars and tracks of the

That price also puts it in direct competition with Acer’s Predator Helios 300, which landed on PC Gamer’s best gaming laptop list . Compared to other contemporary gaming laptops, the G7 is thick and boxy. The G7 15 comes standard with an SSD, and every model above the most basic includes a 1TB hard drive. The G7 15 product page boasts Nvidia’s Max-Q design tech, but the model I used was surprisingly loud. The budget gaming laptop market is a crowded one, but the G7 15 manages to stand out thanks

The latest game from Hidetaka “Swery” Suehiro (no, not that one) is a bizarre platforming mystery full of grisly near-death experiences. Don’t worry, though; even seemingly fatal encounters won’t hold you back in The Missing’s ominous Island of Memories. Today Swery announced a release date, and it’s coming to Steam in just under a month: October 10. Here’s the game’s premise: J.J. Macfield is on the hunt for her missing friend, and it’s a hunt that will fling her into harms way over and over ag

Techland said a month ago that Dying Light: Bad Blood, the battle royale game for people who hate waiting (because things happen fast, whether you want them to or not), would be out—in Early Access—sometime in September. Dying Light: Bad Blood pits 12 players against one another in a competition to be the one and only survivor of a zombie-infested nightmare. Techland said that new content, including characters, items, and maps, will be released regularly during the Early Access period. Dying Lig

Ubisoft has revealed its post-launch plans for the upcoming ahistorical assassination game Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, which will include a season pass featuring two multi-episode storylines and separate story missions called The Lost Tales of Greece that will be free for everyone. The first story arc, set to go live in December, will be a three-episode adventure called Legacy of the First Blade. The Assassin’s Creed Odyssey season pass will also include Assassin’s Creed 3 Remastered, with a new g

AMD’s latest driver package also adds support for Star Control: Origins, and comes with a half a dozen bug fixes to boot. Radeon Settings may sometimes not appear in the right-click context menu on Windows desktop after Radeon Software installation. Radeon Settings may sometimes popup an error message due to Driver and Radeon Settings version mismatch. Go here to download the 18.9.1 driver package, assuming you’re running a Radeon graphics card. If you own an Nvidia graphics card, the driver you

Fractal’s Define cases are fairly popular among PC builders, and the R6 is one of the company’s best mid-tower cases. In fact, it earned a spot on our list of best PC cases. If you’ve been looking to grab a nice-looking tower, the R6 is currently $40 off on Newegg—bringing the price down to $109.99. The Define R6 has a scratch-resistant tempered glass side panel on one side, and brushed aluminum/steel on the others. You can buy the Define R6 on Newegg.

Maybe not, but Adata built an external HDD that puts those kind of worries to rest. Adata’s new HD830 is the company’s most rugged external HDD to date. And by rugged, the company means it can withstand up to 3,000 kg (~6,600 pounds) of downward pressure. You’re screwed if there’s a Tyrannosaurus Rex, though, and you drop Adata’s external HDD while running for cover. To use Adata’s own point of reference, the HD830 can withstand the downward pressure of “fifty average-sized people.”

Castle Wolfenstein was the first, but the FPS series as we know it started 25 years ago with Wolfenstein 3D. Sequels and reboots led to Wolfenstein—just Wolfenstein—in 2009, after which Bethesda took over and gave us Wolfenstein: The New Order and then Wolfenstein: The Old Blood, neither of which were Wolfenstein 2, which didn’t come along until last year. This year, Bethesda revealed Wolfenstein: Youngblood at E3, which in keeping with that complicated tradition is not Wolfenstein 3 but rather

The Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Blackout beta will go live on PC at 10 am PT/1 pm ET on September 15, or at the same time a day earlier if you’ve already preordered the game. If you haven’t preordered but want to get in early anyway, that can also be arranged. To ensure you don’t waste any precious time downloading the Blackout beta when you could be playing it, you can preload it right now on Battle.net. Regardless of when you start playing, the beta will come to an end at 10 am PT/1 pm ET on Sep

That’s the question I’ve been grappling with since watching the video reveal of Soulcalibur 6’s latest returning character. He’s a cursed, undead pirate with an unquenchable thirst for souls, so he’s a bad dude, but he’s also shirtless and jacked. The old sea dog fights with a longsword and a dagger that also has a pistol “hidden” in its hilt. The real question is whether or not he’s hotter than Soulcalibur’s other angry old man, Geralt of Rivia. Soulcalibur 6 is due out on October 19, marking i

Simultaneous turn-based tactics romp Frozen Synapse 2 is out today, after a couple of delays, as you can see from the neon-drenched launch trailer above. If an open-world, procedural tactics game set in a cyberpunk-adjacent city sounds like your cup of tea, keep an eye out for our review, popping into existence later today. And while you wait, why not take a gander at a gameplay demo from earlier in the year. The first Frozen Synapse and the sporty Frozen Cortex are both cracking tactical playgr

There was the survivor mode in June, last month’s People and Automatons update and now an expansion is heading our way. The Fall of Winterhome is a story-driven scenario due out next week, and like the previous updates, the expansion will be free. During the scenario, you’ll find out why it all went very wrong. We know how the city ends up, and it’s right there in the title, but perhaps we’ll be able to save it. The Fall of Winterhome is due out on September 19.

There’s only one week left until Fortnite Season 6, which means it’s time to scramble to complete that backlog of challenges we’ve all neglected until now. As usual, there’s another scavenger hunt in week 10, this time placing the battle stars between a covered bridge, waterfall, and 9th green. The last clue is clearly pointing to the only golf course on the map, so head to Lazy Links, then head east. You’ll find the battle stars hidden on a small patch of dirt next to a small garage.

Much of the attention surrounding Nvidia’s GeForce RTX graphics cards is on real-time ray tracing, which promises to deliver better reflections and visual effects compared to rasterization alone. Nvidia previously announced that the 16 games would support DLSS. You’ll be hearing much more about DLSS, NVIDIA RTX ray tracing, and the other features of GeForce RTX graphics cards in the coming weeks,” Nvidia says. In its base form, it combines resolution upscaling with anti-aliasing, while a higher

We’ve provided an in-depth look at the technical details of the Nvidia Turing architecture, talked about ray tracing, and gathered everything you need to know about the GeForce RTX 2080. There’s a sturdy foam shell that conforms nicely to the GeForce RTX cards, rather than cheap cardboard or Styrofoam. The RTX 208 as an example has 8-pin and 6-pin PCIe power connections, while the RTX 2080 Ti has dual 8-pin connections. Between the motherboard PCIe x16 slot and the PEG connections, the 2080 has

It’s a little later than planned, but Commands & Colors: Ancients now brings Roman warfare to PC. Launched yesterday on Steam, Hexwar Games and GMT Games have reimagined the 2006 tabletop original in digital form, with 15 war-torn scenarios and over 50 unique combat and command cards. With a focus on “the historical deployment of forces and important terrain features on the scale of the game system”, Commands & Colors: Ancients lets players fill the sandals of Syracusan, Carthaginian or Roman so

Warhammer: Chaosbane, the fantasy Warhammer action-RPG, was announced back in June, but only now are we getting to see it in action. Developer Eko Software posted a ‘first look’ video, showing off two characters and an appropriately gloomy, chaos-infested dungeon. The video boasts that Chaosbane is the first action RPG set in Games Workshop’s fantasy universe, which is a bit of a surprise. There are so many Warhammer games and this seems like a really good fit, so it’s strange that it hasn’t bee

If the main thing that’s tempting you to purchase a BlizzCon virtual ticket is the promise of that brilliant Sombra Demon Hunter skin—I don’t blame you—you might want to close your wallet and wait for a few months. Spotted by PCGamesN, the fine print at the bottom of Blizzard’s post that advertises the ticket and all the in-game stuff that you can get for Overwatch, StarCraft II, and StarCraft: Remastered notes that they’ll all be made available separately next year. There’s no specific date or

I’d be more than happy to go for a swim to find Nessie or traipse around North America on the hunt for Bigfoot. There’s more than a hint of that in ‘investigative’ action-RPG HellSign, but instead of doing this all in the name of science (or pseudo-science), you’re trying to find ways to murder these monsters. What separates HellSign from other action-RPGs is the aforementioned investigative element. As you prepare, choosing the right weapons and ammo, they disappear one by one, confirming that
