The Elder Scrolls: Legends – Return to Clockwork City, the home of the fearsome Clockwork Dragon we told you about a few weeks ago, is now live on all platforms. The new story expansion promises “danger, wonder, and riches beyond imagination,” set in the fabled city created by the dead god Sotha Sil. Return to Clockwork City will add more than 50 new cards to the game and 35 story missions crossing three acts. There are also new creatures called Fabricants that confer their own unique rewards fo

I love Grand Theft Auto 5’s enduring performance culture, and have written about it on several occasions in the past. The game’s stunt scene never fails to impress me, and the latest montage from the Evolve Stunting crew is wonderful. Whereas you and I might drive, cycle or fly around GTA 5’s Los Santos cityscape and see buildings, billboards and bridges—the game’s most adventurous stuntmen and women see props for their latest productions. Sure, some of those set pieces take advantage of GTA 5’s

Back in August, Euro Truck Simulator 2 developer SCS Software revealed its next slice of inter-continental DLC was heading for Italy. Now, it’s got a new trailer and a launch date: December 5, 2017. That can be seen above, however SCS notes that it plans to apply “cosmetic touches” between now and next week’s release. “The geography and shape of Italy have led to a comparatively high concentration of cities in the Italia map expansion,” so reads the game’s Steam page blurb. Euro Truck Simulator

At the start of this month, digital sales site Bundle Stars rebranded itself as Fanatical . It’s since launched a number of deals packages—such as the Max Damage and Curve Digital bundles—and now turns its head to id Software’s hell-set demon shooter Doom. Tier one of Fanatical’s Doom Bundle discounts 2016’s Doom reboot by 67 percent, selling for £6.66/$9.99 alongside all of its add-ons and DLC. Tier two, if you’re feeling flush, adds Doom Classic Complete and Doom 3: BFG Edition into the mix fo

Ultimately that led to the current situation, in which more committed players are struggling to find the motivation to play. “If you have a game that you love, you really want reasons to log in,” Smith said. “And I think where we’re at today is that Destiny 2 is a game that doesn’t have enough excuses, or reasons, to play for those [hardcore] hobbyist players… We have to be looking at systems that lead to hobbyist play for all players.” Noseworthy took that idea further, talking about players

I also spent some time running around in a build of PUBG’s desert map, which is planned to arrive before the end of the year as part of the popular battle royale shooter’s exit from Steam Early Access. And now, it sounds like we’ll all get a closer look at some actual desert map gameplay in early December. Geoff Keighley, producer of The Game Awards, tweeted this bit of news earlier tonight:Don’t miss the first-ever gameplay of the new desert map from @PUBATTLEGROUNDS live during @thegameawards

Despite EA CEO Blake Jorgensen stating this week that Star Wars Battlefront 2 doesn’t have cosmetic customisation for fear of violating the canon, it appears the game does have that functionality after all. That’s according to a new datamine of the PC version of the game, which depicts character customisation menus currently unavailable in the public build of the game. The video comes via Redditor uninspired_zebra, renown on the Battlefront subreddit for datamining the series’ PC builds. While t

In Stoneshard, an upcoming turn-based roguelike from developer Ink Stains Games, dying horribly is no joke—it’s your bread and butter. There’s seemingly no end to the ways you can die, and there’s depth in other areas of the game as well. Ink Stains Games says there will also be a closed alpha before the Kickstarter launches, but has not yet released signup details. You may recognize Ink Stains Games from their previous game, 12 is Better Than 6, a top-down Western shooter which was successfully

Blue Omen Operation is a self-described “action-command RPG” about two superpowered eccentrics chasing a space sarcophagus. Their designs speak to Blue Omen’s unique aesthetic, owed to artist and creator “Inker,” who cites the works of manga and anime artist Akira Toriyama as a major influence. Blue Omen’s twitch-based combat is slightly more familiar, although less so on PC. It was primarily inspired by Mario RPGs like Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, the Kickstarter page says, as

Welcome back to The PC Gamer Show , our weekly livestreamed podcast. You can catch the show live on Wednesdays at 1 pm PDT on our Twitch channel , or after the fact at any of the links below. This week we’ll be talking about the confusion and anger over Destiny 2’s XP system before washing away the bad noise with good noise: music. Listen along as Wes and Austin attempt to match the music to the game in a fun reflection on some of our favorite jams of the year. ListenDownload the MP3 directlySub

Finally, against a backdrop of much grousing, changes are on the way, and for once Bungie has been willing to put solid dates to some of them. Armor Ornaments are coming, so players will be able to create looks that show off their prowess at particular activites. There will be two rounds of updates next month, on December 5 and 12, and more coming in 2018. “We were able to disable the system with a server-side change, but a new solution is now needed to rebalance XP in Destiny 2. If Destiny 2 is

I really liked Rain World, but I’m also really bad at it, and so I ultimately moved on to other things without making very much progress. The 1.51 update, which was announced in June, is now in open beta on Steam, bringing with it new difficulty levels, multiplayer modes, and “new secrets, strangeness, and hopefully a generally smoother Rain World experience.” For those who for some reason think that Rain World wasn’t hard enough out of the box, there is the Hunter. To access the Rain World 1.51

I was a big fan of Mechwarrior back in the Activision days, and so the new Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries gameplay video that comes to us courtesy of Polygon hit me like a big ol’ wave of nostalgia. It’s ten minutes of stomping through a small outpost, blowing up everything in sight with lasers, rockets, and an AC5—and it looks just like the game I remember. That’s not to say that it looks like a 20-year-old game, which obviously isn’t the case. I was very disappointed when Mechwarrior Online arrive

Editor’s note: If you haven’t played Gravity Bone you should definitely do that before reading this. Gravity Bone also slips in elements you’d expect from larger games, tricking you into thinking there is something grander beyond its borders. Gravity Bone is packed with personality. When you land on a banquet table during the game’s chase sequence, your foot squelches in someone’s dessert as champagne glasses shatter. Gravity Bone looks great, sounds excellent, and oozes class.

Mutant Storms are special storms in the Save the World mode that grant unique modifiers to enemies and heroes, and drop “useful rewards” for dealing with them. New Mutant Storm-specific Event Quests have been added, and tickets from missions can be earned up to ten times per day. Nine new Vindertech weapons are also now available from event quests and event llamas. Over on the Battle Royale side of things, kill-or-die contestants will now be able to lob smoke grenades, which are used in the same

Three weeks after going free-to-play, Battlerite is getting a timed event in the form of Prehistoric Mania, developer Stunlock Studios announced today. Prehistoric Mania begins today and runs through Tuesday, December 12, and it’s bringing a wealth of new collectibles with it. To unlock them, you need only complete matches in casual mode, league mode, or the newly added battlegrounds mode. You need to complete 25 matches to get the Peaceful Triceratops, and 65 for the Enraged variant. Completing

ZeniMax is making its Tamrielic MMO The Elder Scrolls Online free to try this weekend. Beginning tomorrow (which, I know, is not the weekend, but roll with me here) and until December 6, the game will be free to download and play, and all new accounts will be given 500 crowns for use in the in-game store. Over the same period of time, players will be able to take part in an in-game dungeon event that will award “Mysterious Reward Boxes” for completing a random dungeon. The prize boxes will conta

Newegg is selling a few different cables that are free after mail-in-rebate. Each one is through its house brand, Rosewill, and comes with positive user reviews (which indicates these aren’t junk). This one is on sale for $12, down from $14, and is also free after a $12 mail-in-rebate. Finally, there is a 6-foot USB 2.0 extension cable (male-to-female) that is on sale for $6, down from $9, and free after rebate. There’s nothing really special about any of these cables, other than being able to s

But what we didn’t know is that Twitter is one of the reasons why we can’t have a free and open internet. “Now look: I love Twitter,” Pai said. “But let’s not kid ourselves; when it comes to a free and open Internet, Twitter is a part of the problem. As BGR points out, Pai basically used a distraction tactic, choosing to attack the most vocal supporters of net neutrality rather than convincingly argue why net neutrality rules shouldn’t exist. We’re not getting one, but the FCC is willing to dest
