Cyberpunk 2077’s frame by frame breakdown of its E3 trailer rolls on with its seventh and eighth episode. The trailer series’ episode seven first looks at the makeup-applying robot that’s missing the lower portion of its face. “The possession of trendy cyberware has become an integral and defining part of Night City culture. Episode seven then turns its attention to the angry-looking gunman who cops a few headshots around 1.18. “Night City has seen its share of gang warfare over the years.

Since then, Bungie has adamantly and unequivocally insisted that the killing is real, and Cayde-6 is dead. But Nathan Fillion, the voice actor behind the character, told Kotaku that he doesn’t buy it. So if Fillion doesn’t portray Cayde-6 in Forsaken, who does? None other than voice actor extraordinaire Nolan North, who already has a prominent role in Destiny 2 as the player’s Ghost. “Unfortunately, sometimes these things don’t work out,” Fillion said, explaining that he was simply too busy to a

Epic Games promised big things with Fortnite’s first year of official competition, investing $100 million in prize money alone. The scale of the genre means aspects of the competition will always be out of sight, or difficult to parse. I can’t speak to the casters’ knowledge of Fortnite, but the impression they left was that maybe one of them were regular players. Expecting competitors to play as aggressively as they would in a public match was Epic’s second major mistake. No $250,000 competitio

Now we’ve got large 4K Ultra HD TVs with multiple HDMI 2.0 connections that cost less than a good monitor. Can you just use a 4K TV for PC gaming in place of a display, and would you want to?

Major League Baseball hosted the finals of its VR Home Run Derby today at the All-Star FanFest to see who could hit the most virtual dingers. Played in MLB Home Run Derby VR (which is on Steam, currently with mixed reviews) the event saw a kid named Coop versus a kid named Chuck—two very good baseball names—make it to the finals. It was weird for me, for a moment at least, to see full grown adults stepping in against some very young kids in the derby. In a VR baseball game. But virtual baseball

Rocketcat Games’ pixelated roguelike dungeon crawler Wayward Souls didn’t click with me until I stepped into the shoes of Renee the Rogue. Wayward Souls, out now via Steam Early Access, is styled as a close relative to classic SNES 16-bit RPGs like Chrono Trigger and Secret of Mana. During this sequence Wayward Souls already makes good on its story-heavy focus with numerous dramatic cutscenes as I play through an invasion of a castle. Wayward Souls wants me focused squarely on speed and offense,

Platformers—do you like them? If your answer is “yes,” and you’ve still got some green left over from Prime Day, then this might be a good time to turn your attention to the Humble Store. It is at this very moment holding a “Pixel Perfect Platformers” sale, with discounts of up to 85 percent. Suggestions? I have a few:The Humble Pixel Perfect Platformers sale is live now and runs until 10 am PT/1 pm ET on July 23.

Electronic Arts has confirmed that Battlefield 5 will have an open beta, and that it will take place sometime in the first part of September. “It’s worth mentioning that TTK is not just determined by how powerful weapons are. For instance, it’s also related to how fast the game lets you react to being fired at,” EA wrote. “There will be several more tests of Battlefield 5—internal and external—before the October launch, and we will be using our learnings from the first Alpha to test further and

Now here’s a nice discount: our budget pick for the best gaming laptop, the Acer Predator Helios 300, is on sale on Amazon today for $899.99, or $150 off its regular price.

Every single Windows Mixed Reality VR headset has the same specifications—except the Samsung HMD Odyssey. It’s the highest-end Mixed Reality headset you can buy, on par with an Oculus Rift or HTC Vive. That beats the Oculus Rift and original HTC Vive, as both have a resolution of 2160×1200. All Mixed Reality headsets are compatible with SteamVR. You can buy the HMD Odyssey from Amazon.

Last year’s Fallout: The Board Game was a pretty good solution to an age-old problem: Fallout didn’t have enough hexes. It looks like Fantasy Flight Games was happy with it, too, since we’ve got an expansion on the way. The scenarios look to be inspired by the original Fallout games, with locations like the Brotherhood of Steel’s Lost Hills Bunker, the Cathedral, and the settlement of Arroyo. Perhaps the most interesting part of the expansion is the five new characters, doubling the character co

World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth is still a month away, but patch 8.0 arrives tomorrow at around 3 pm PDT (when the scheduled server maintenance ends). A major combat overhaulWhen you log into World of Warcraft tomorrow, your character’s spells and abilities are going to be pretty different. Patch 8.0 squishes the item level of gear and stats down to more “perceptible” sizes to make things manageable. As of patch 8.0, Legion’s artifact weapons are going to lose their power entirely and beco

Tyranny, the isometric RPG about being bad that’s actually very good, is the latest addition to the lineup of free games being offered to Twitch Prime members. But you’ve only got until tomorrow to pick it up. Twitch Prime provides ad-free viewing, exclusive emotes and a chat badge, free channel subscription, and—as of March—free games every month. It’s included with subscriptions to Amazon Prime, which offers free delivery on a huge range of products, access to Prime Video and Prime Music, and

For a number of reasons, the Warcraft film did not turn out to be a career highlight for director Duncan Jones. Hopefully he’ll have better luck with the Rogue Trooper flick that he confirmed earlier today he’s working on. Incredibly excited to confirm I’m working on an adaption of Gerry Finley-Day & Dave Gibbons’ 2000AD comic ROGUE TROOPER! His other credits include Mute, the Jake Gyllenhaal flick Source Code, and Moon, a modestly-budgeted sci-fi film starring Sam Rockwell for which Jones won a

One of those is Zotac’s GTX 1080 Mini card, which is currently $469.99 on Amazon. That’s $30 lower than the previous price, and $30 lower than the MSRP for a GTX 1080 Founders Edition. The card has 8GB of GDDR5X memory, with a base clock of 1620 MHz and a boost of 1759 MHz. You can buy the Zotac GTX 1080 Mini from Amazon. On a similar note, the Zotac GTX 1070 Mini is currently $399.99 on Amazon, but that’s only a $20 drop from the previous price.

It’s only been a few weeks since the “looking for group” feature and endorsements were rolled out to Overwatch, but they’re already having a positive effect. Game director Jeff Kaplan shared some early stats in a brief forum post indicating that abusive behavior has gone down dramatically in the Americas and Korea since the features went live. It’s kind of a preemptive moderation system: Instead of punishing bad behavior, it rewards positive play and attitudes, although the specifics of the prom

Unfortunately what you see above is not an actual, playable version of Tetris. It’s a physics simulation made in Cinema 4D and posted to C4D4U’s YouTube Channel. I love gummi candy and these are the loveliest, chewiest, slipperiest gummi Tetris pieces I’ve ever seen (granted, they’re the only gummi Tetris pieces I’ve ever seen). The video above is the eighth iteration of C4D4U’s Tetris simulations. If you like it—and how can you not, it’s beautiful and squishy—there are plenty more neat simulati

Game developers are increasingly taking advantage of the growing market in Linux gaming, but that’s not always been the case, and even now some games aren’t released outside of Windows. Sadly, it’s not a silver bullet that will get all your Windows games working in Linux, but it should be able to give you access to at least some of them. We’ll also explore an alternative Wine wrapper (and touch on another way to play Windows games in Linux), plus reveal how to play old DOS games in addition to W
