King Art Games’ The Raven—Legacy of a Master Thief is an episodic point-and-click adventure game that first graced our screens in July, 2013. Now, publisher THQ Nordic has revealed the whodunit detective ’em up is in-line for a 2018 reimagining. Named The Raven Remastered, it’s due in a couple of months’ time. Is somebody trying to follow in the footsteps of The Raven, the legendary master thief who disappeared years before? The Raven Remastered is due March 13, 2018.

Above and beyond their similar difficulty levels, Dark Souls and Darkest Dungeon have overlapped in the past by virtue of player-made mods. To this end, Carnifex’s Warrior of Sunlight class mod—which recreates Solaire of Astora in Red Hooks’ unforgiving cavern crawler—is easily one of the best, and Daoro’s Dragonslayer Knight class mod is another that’s caught my eye. By adding Dragonslayer Ornstein to Darkest Dungeon, players get a new religious class whose attacks increase his speed and dodge

Yume Nikki is a surrealist adventure game from Japanese indie developer Kikiyama. Created in 2004 by way of RPG Maker, it’s since garnered somewhat of a cult following. Last year, Giada Zavarise discussed the horrifying legacy of Yume Nikki, the homebrew game that became a phenomenon. And here’s Yume Nikki’s Steam release trailer (via Gematsu):Yume Nikki is free and out now on Steam. There, you’ll notice a link to this countdown timer, which is tied “to the next Yume Nikki project”.

A beta will release in Q4 2018, with the official launch slated for Q2 2019, if Kodak doesn’t quietly abandoned this entire tenuous plan between now and then. It’s not clear if KodakCoin will be a mineable cryptocurrency, but the third prong of Kodak’s blockchain attack suggests it might be. The cost will be $3,400, after which Kodak will take half of the Bitcoin mined and the purchaser of the contract will get the other half. The fact that the mining hardware appears to be AntMiner S9 units wit

At CES this week, Corsair showed off a bevy of new new wireless products that claim to have virtually no lag at all, including a gaming mouse and keyboard. We first saw this mouse and wireless charging mousepad in 2017 as Concept Zeus, but as of today they’re real products, due out at the end of the month. First on the list is the new K63 wireless TKL gaming keyboard. Corsair also announced its new Dark Core RGB wireless gaming mouse to compliment the K63 keyboard. This is different from what Lo

Sea of Thieves is among the very few Xbox One exclusive titles in Microsoft’s 2018 arsenal, and it’s due to ship on March 20. Of course, like all Xbox games it’s also coming to PC, so the next closed beta – which kicks off on January 24 – is coming to Windows 10. If you do qualify to be part of the closed beta, it runs for five days, finishing up on January 29. (Full timing details are in the announcement)Naturally, the closed beta won’t provide access to the entire game, but it should sate the

We like the deep-sea-living sim Subnautica quite a bit around here. Enough to include it among our choices for “best underwater games” last summer, which isadmittedly something of a niche sub-genre—but still a valid recognition of its quality. That makes it easy to forget that the game is actually still in Early Access. You’re invited to a very special livestream, four years in the making. The stream will begin at 6:15 pm ET/9:15 pm PT, and will be carried on Twitch.

Take pointIn Door Kickers, the choices start when you see a level for the first time. Door Kickers is a game of angles, and if you’re off by a few degrees you get punished. Door Kickers is a game of angles, and if you’re off by a few degrees you get punished. I also told him to stay put until any tangos in sight had been killed, another useful command in your Door Kickers arsenal. According to KillHouse Games their sequel, Door Kickers 2: Task Force North, will release at least its Early Access

But for the RGB completionist out there, you can now put your bottom on a chair that has RGB lighting—all wirelessly done too. Vertagear announced its new PL4500 RGB chair, which is part of its racing series of chairs today at CES. NZXT CAM enabled Vertagear PL4500 LED gaming chair. No final pricing has been announced yet but Vertagear tells us that it’ll start making the PL4500 RGB available this spring. Vertagear’s current SL series was our best pick for the most comfortable gaming chair.

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance, no one knows your name. The honor of joining your local armed forces is as close to ‘chosen one’ as it gets in Kingdom Come: Deliverance. But in Kingdom Come: Deliverance, if you manage to poke their head through their visor, they’ll be dead in one or two hits. Kingdom Come: Deliverance is the kind of recklessly complex machine that PC gamers tend to pine for, even if stacking those complexities can get messy. We’ll get to see how well everything works soon; Kingdom

You’re forgiven if you’ve never heard of Edge Memory. The focus has been on OEM products in the past, but Edge Memory is looking to go after the mainstream consumer market. The most interesting of the drives is the NextGen M.2 NVMe, which comes in capacities of 120GB/250GB/500GB/1TB/2TB. The NextGen pairs a Silicon Motion SM2262 controller with 3D TLC NAND, and Edge claims read/write speeds of up to 3.2/1.9GB/s, with 370K/300K IOPS. It uses the Silicon Motion SM2258XT controller, also with 3D TL

You can’t take off your helmet in The Onus Helm, which developer B-Cubed Labs calls an “action adventure game with roguelike elements.” The Onus Helm is currently on Kickstarter: its campaign has earned $837 of its $5,500 goal and will run for another 22 days. In The Onus Helm, you wake up in a cursed world wearing the Helm. Fight through randomly generated dungeons, collect items, and commiserate with NPCs who also can’t remove their Helm. As B-Cubed explains on Kickstarter, the demo build cont

The new Humble Bundle is all about “Hope for Orphans,” which strikes me as kind of an odd name for this particular collection of games. It’s got the Second World War, the Vietnam War, the war against zombies, the war against wizards, two hypothetical Third World Wars that seem increasingly inescapable, and to round it all out, a sci-fi puzzle-platformer. The $1 entry level includes Rising Storm Game of the Year edition (with all multiplayer content from Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad), Ki

If you’re looking to up your stealth game in Fallout 4, creep on over to Nexus Mods and slip the Tactical Distraction System mod into your bag of tricks. The mod lets you whistle or toss a bolt, creating a sound that will catch the attention of an enemy (or enemies) in the vicinity, luring them over. Whistling will lure an enemy over to the spot you whistled from, so you can either whistle and then scuttle away, or wait in place to take them out. Throwing a bolt, meanwhile, will lure the enemy t

Unfortunately, it looks like a lot of those players are discovering Battlefront 2’s online support is in rough shape, if they can get it to work at all. The most common complaint seems to be especially high ping on the existing online servers—which isn’t surprising, because currently Battlefront 2’s online servers are all player-hosted. AsLan has already had some success running a dedicated server, despite those complications, and says GOG’s latest patch made some big improvements to server stab

Corporal Miles Lewis, better known to StarCraft fans as the veteran Firebat “Blaze,” is now live in Heroes of the Storm. “So naturally he does well with heroes who are good at staying in fights.” The spotlight trailer provides a good rundown of Blaze’s abilities, and his hero page is live if you’d like to dig a little deeper. “As expected, our gameplay update for 2018 resulted in large changes to many of our game systems. “We’ll be keeping an eye on things, and are prepared to make more updates

According to this Reddit thread, which now comes with an all-but-official confirmation from a Bungie community manager, players still soldiering on through the waist-high salt drifts can expect the return of Crimson Days. That’s a rather florid, Shaxx-flavored description of Crimson Days’ 2v2 Elimination Mode called Crimson Doubles. And in case that’s not enough to seal the deal for you, Bungie community manager Cozmo23 hopped into the thread to say that, yes, Crimson Days is coming back. Crimso

The latter seems to have been a major motivator in retooling the F131, which Maingear designed in-house from the ground up. “The launch of our new F131 desktop sets a new benchmark in gaming desktops” said Wallace Santos, CEO and Founder of Maingear. Going with the Apex cooling solution is a pricey proposition though—it costs $299 on top of the required $500 Epic 420 custom liquid cooling upgrade, so $799 to go all-in. For those who can afford the fancy cooling setup, the resulting build is wort

The biggest gaming announcement at CES this year is HTC’s Vive Pro, a new headset with integrated audio and higher resolution display. On paper, the Vive Pro has a 78 percent increase in resolution over the original Vive and Rift. The Vive Pro looked good, and immediately sets the product as the number one VR headset to get if you’re going to buy one. I still think the PSVR is the most comfortable headset, but the Vive Pro is a much-appreciated improvement. What I don’t know is when exactly you’

Did the case you buy skimp on cooling fans, leaving a bunch of empty fan mounts looking sad and lonely? Over at Newegg, you can grab a four-pack of Cooler Master’s silent case fans (R4-S2S-124K-GP) for $9, down from $13. The same four-pack is also on sale at Amazon, though as of this writing it shows as being temporarily out of stock. There’s not a ton to say here—they’re fans with blades that spin and move air and stuff. They’re also quiet at 19 dBA, while providing 44.73 CFM of airflow, and ha
