Solstice Chronicles: MIA, so its Steam page says, is a “tactical twist on twin-stick shooters.” It’s also got a pretty decent new trailer, put out today by developer Ironward to mark the game’s release. A follow-up—but not a direct sequel—to the 2015 squad-based game The Red Solstice, Solstice Chronicles: MIA looks considerably more action-oriented, although players will still have to balance “the risk and reward of decisions that drastically change the threat you face,” developer Ironward warne

We chose Crucial’s MX300 525GB SSD as our budget pick among the best SSDs for gaming because even at its regular price, it’s a good value. Well, it’s an even better one now—you can snag this drive from Jet.com (owned by Walmart) for $135. In this case, you can use the former one to snag the Crucial drive at a discount. The Crucial MX300 uses 3D NAND flash memory from Samsung. You can grab the Crucial MX300 525GB on sale here.

Overwatch’s Junkrat doesn’t get much love these days. Overwatch principal designer Geoff Goodman took to the game’s official forums today to share a bit of info about an impending rework to the Australian demolitions expert. “Currently on our internal builds, Junkrat has 2 charges of his Concussion Mine,” Goodman said. It was already possible to double-jump with Junkrat’s Concussion Mine, but it required placing a Mine and then waiting for the eight-second cooldown before launching into the air.

Earlier this month, Blizzard announced the cities and owners of the first seven teams that will take part in its upcoming Overwatch League. “All 30 million+ Overwatch players (that are of majority age and otherwise eligible to play) are considered potential free agents with respect to the Overwatch League,” Blizzard said. “In future seasons, the pre-season player signing process will be updated to serve the needs of an established league, its teams, players, and fans,” it said. Blizzard also sti

With Destiny 2’s divisive open beta still in our rearview mirrors, today Bungie revealed Coldheart, a new exotic weapon coming to the sequel. Bungie senior gameplay designer Jon Weisnewski called Coldheart a “trace rifle” in an interview with IGN . “We’ve tried more interesting things, like we have with Coldheart, across the scope of the weapons in Destiny 2,” Weisnewski said. “We’re definitely trying to push the idea of player experience and what that can mean for an exotic weapon. Pinpointing

Two weeks ago, Bethesda released a trailer for Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus in which only three Nazis died—five, if you count the Nazi robots. That’s pretty remarkable for a game that’s all about shooting Nazis. But today’s trailer, “Strawberry Milkshake,” takes that pseudo-pacifist approach one step further: Nobody dies! But this trailer is all about setting the mood, and it does so very nicely. It’s a fun twist on the train ride encounter with Frau Engel, which—spoiler ahead—ends, after a f

Nvidia’s asking price for a GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition is $700. That’s some serious coin, though if you’re really determined to lighten your wallet, EVGA announced a custom model built for overclocking that costs a $1,000. The new GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Kingpin card separates itself from the pack with EVGA’s iCX cooling system. Users can keep an eye on things and tweak settings as necessary by way of 9 additional sensors sensors embedded on the PCB. If you’re interested, you can sign up t

The USB 3.0 Promoter Group comprised of Apple, HP, Intel, Microsoft, and other technology firms announced the pending release of the USB 3.2 specification. What’s new is that USB 3.2 supports multi-lane operation, something that is already supported by USB Type-C cables. However, you will be able to use your existing USB Type-C cables, so long as they’re certified for SuperSpeed USB 10Gbps. If so, a USB 3.2 device connected to a USB 3.2 host would be capable of transferring data at over 2GB/s. ”

Watch live on Twitch right here! Every Wednesday at 1 PM Pacific we broadcast The PC G am er Show live on Twitch. Tom Marks has left the building (miss you, man), so The PC Gamer Show is going through some necessary growing pains. Expect changes in the coming weeks as the show’s new form slowly crawls out of the big pool of pulsating, radioactive ooze Tom left behind. At the very least, we’ll talk about what we’re playing, some news, and wrap with our usual Twitch chat Q&A!

Cliff Bleszinski’s Boss Key Productions held an open beta for its upcoming law-of-gravity-breaking online FPS LawBreakers last month, and it seemed to go pretty well: Laws were broken, people were shot, and a good time was had by all. But the good news for those of you who missed it (or who would just like to give it another shot) is that one more open beta is set to begin on Friday. The final beta will feature a number of changes from the previous event, including balance tweaks and new feature

Procedurally generated action RPG Songbringer takes plenty of inspiration from the original Zelda, but as we wrote back in February, with the addition of hundreds of weapons and hallucinogenic cacti. There’s also a tophat that doubles as a boomerang and a humming nanosword you can use to slice up baddies and bosses, who lurk at the bottom of Songbringer’s dungeons. The new trailer above shows off several of those bosses, including a fearsome goat man who smashed me with a giant hammer when devel

In Why I Love, PC Gamer writers pick an aspect of PC gaming that they love and write about why it’s brilliant. It’s a gentle first-person puzzle game in the vein of Myst, Riven and—more recently—Obduction. Quern is a good reminder a game with few button prompts can create a richer internal experience than a game that has many. The result is a calm sense of escapism that I wish I could experience in more games. I like to wander about the game’s grey shores thinking about how to resolve a colourfu

I’m so far removed from Hangar 13 and 2K’s largely underwhelming Mafia 3 that I completely missed the launch of its second DLC, Stones Unturned, back in May. I did give its other add-on ‘Faster, Baby!’ You might’ve gotten on better with it, though, which means you might be interested in Mafia 3’s latest and third slice of proper DLC: Sign of the Times. Some of that features here:Similar to the time-manipulating feature that popped up in Faster, Baby!, a new “slow-motion gunplay mechanic” appears

Why is Dragon Age 2 definitely the best one? Players who want an easier time of it can just carry on playing Dragon Age like an action game, which is honestly how I’ve played it since the first game came out. The backlash against Dragon Age 2 showed that fans expect epic scope from the series, so a new Dragon Age will probably need another angry demigod to destabilise Thedas and bring the races into conflict. Dragon Age games have neat cross-party banter which triggers as you wander around.These

In our guide to the best gaming mouse, the Logitech G502 Proteus Core takes the top spot in the “heavy gaming mouse” section. Not only is it good for people with larger hands, it also happens to have the most accurate sensor on the market. Without the weights, the Logitech G502 Proteus Core is already 121 grams, making it a gloriously weighty mouse if that’s what you want. £47 is the cheapest you’ll find this mouse for today, and it’s only been cheaper than this once in the past 6 months, and th

Ninja Theory has now revealed that when its incoming action adventure game does finally land on August 8, it’ll come with an in-game photo mode. Alongside the announcement, the Enslaved and DmC developer provided some handy snaps which showcase the mode in practice. “We are very pleased to announce that Photo Mode will be available in Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice when the game launches on August 8,” says Ninja Theory in a statement. “You can easily capture Senua in action and the breathtaking sc

THQ Nordic, the studio formerly known as Nordic Games, has revealed its Gamescom lineup. And among a host of games you’ve most likely already heard of already features two as yet unannounced projects—one, a kung-fu-inspired post-apocalyptic RPG; another a new instalment of a “well-known, mysterious and horrific” series. Not to knock any of the above, however much of THQ Nordic’s Gamescom intrigue befalls the aforementioned unannounced games. Martial arts in a post-apocalyptic world sounds intere

Following its free DLC reveal earlier this week, Techland has unveiled Gemly—a new “community focused” digital distribution platform that aims to bring the developer closer to its players. Ahead of Dying Light’s first portion of free DLC due later this year, the zombie survival-meets-parkour ’em up has also launched its ‘Content Drop #0’ on PC. From front to back, Content Drop #0 introduces a new faction of soldiers into its murder world, who’ve up shot in the game’s Old Town zone. Further down

Frontier Developments, the studio responsible for Planet Coaster and Elite Dangerous, has announced Frontier Expo 2017—a day-long event set to run this October at London’s Olympic Park.
