Who Is the Girl Thor Is Kissing in Thor: Love & Thunder?

1 year 9 months ago

Before all of the frantic action of Thor: Love and Thunder gets underway, there’s a brief scene where Thor can be seen kissing a random, blue-haired girl, but who exactly she is isn’t actually explored in the runtime of the movie. This guide will run you through everything we know about them, so you can get an idea of who this mystery woman in Thor’s life actually is.

Thor: Love and Thunder takes Marvel fans on another rollercoaster ride with the lovable, laid-back God as he embarks on a quest for inner peace. Sadly, this all gets interrupted as Gorr, the God Butcher shows up and seeks the extinction of Gods across the universe.

Apex Legends Single-Player Game In Early Development

1 year 9 months ago

New Apex Game

According to some recent job postings on Respawn Entertainment's career webpage, a new single-player FPS set in the Apex Legends universe is in early development. Eurogamer asks if this could be the long-awaited Titanfall 3 in disguise, but that remains to be seen since the posts don't mention anything about the wall-running, mech warfare FPS.

Referred to as "Apex Universe FPS Incubation Title," a Senior Environment Artist post states:

"This new single-player title is a developer's dream playground with a freedom to innovate made possible by the unique universe it inhabits. Our critically acclaimed, multi-platform games have traditionally established a "fun comes first" sensibility created with the notion that great ideas can come from anyone, which allows creativity to shine and individuals to shape the game in meaningful ways."

A single-player FPS is not often announced, especially since the genre is synonymous with competitive play. A story-centric Apex Legends experience could focus on any number of the frontiers' eccentric personalities. It could even delve into Blisk's notorious Apex Predator squadron. In any case, the upcoming shooter would be in good company, seeing as its predecessor is still the best battle royale out right now.

Monster Hunter Rise’s Kakaru Kumo Naki Long Sword Appears at Real Life Exhibition in Japan

1 year 9 months ago

Capcom is collaborating with the Japanese City of Sakai, in Osaka Prefecture for a Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak exhibition.

The event is being held until September 4, 2022, as part of the larger Sakai’s Ancient Techniques exhibition. The city has been known for its metalworking and the production of swords, guns, and weaponry in ancient times, with the tradition now translated into the production of cutlery.

The centerpiece of the exhibition will be a real-world reproduction of the Kakaru Kumo Naki long sword in full size (the blade is about 2.2 meters or 7.2 feet long), but there will also be plenty of artwork from Subreak available to enjoy.

The admission fee for the whole exhibition (including Monster Hunter) will be 800 yen for adults, 600 for high school students, and 300 for junior high school students or younger.

The first 10,000 visitors will also get a special Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak sticker as a bonus.

Speaking of stickers, the local Hankai Tramway will have a special tram with a Monster Hunter livery, as you can see in the gallery below.

Resident Evil 2 Remake Leon and Claire Action Figures Come in Classic Costumes

1 year 9 months ago

Resident Evil 2 Remake Leon Claire Figure

DAMTOYS is releasing a new version of its Resident Evil 2 Remake Leon and Claire action figures, this time featuring both characters in their original costumes. In addition to removable clothing, the 1/6 scale action figures will also include guns and iconic items from the game. Pre-orders are currently open, with each figure costing ¥32,000 (about $233). Both figures will ship sometime in Late 2022. [Thanks, 4Gamer!]

The Leon figure is based on a previously released action figure that Nauts and DAMTOYS released back in 2020. The previous version of the figure featured the character in his default outfit from Remake. Similarly, Claire is also getting a default figure in the near future. Much like the latest release, those figures have over 30 points of movement and posability, as well as a variety of weapons and items to hold.

Each figure will come with a different set of weapons. Leon, for example, will come with Matilda and the M19 handgun with removable stock, magazine, and muzzle brake, as well as the W870 shotgun, LE5 machine gun, grenades, and combat knives. Unlike the standard figure, however, Leon's classic version will come with the ATM-4 rocket launcher rather than the standard Anti-tank Rocket.

DF Direct Weekly: Horizon Forbidden West's VRR/40Hz patch tested - and it's excellent

1 year 9 months ago

Welcome to the landmark 69th edition of DF Direct Weekly, our regular scheduled show where the team takes a break from their various projects to talk about the latest gaming technology news. This week's offering kicks off with detailed impressions of Horizon Forbidden West's 1.17 patch, introducing support for 120Hz features on PlayStation 5 including VRR (variable refresh rate) features for the performance mode and a 'balanced' alternative to the quality mode, running at 40 frames per second.

We were looking to produce come 'bespoke' content for this update because it's actually rather good, but ultimately opted against it because what we're essentially looking at here are some impressive HDMI 2.1-orientated add-ons to the 1.16 patch we've already looked at in depth. But before we go into the details, a warning: if you've got an older HDMI 2.0 display which does have 120Hz support, I'd recommend disabling the PS5's 120Hz output, as you'll likely be downscaling to 1080p to access the new features.

Skyrim Multiplayer Mod Passes 80,000 Downloads, But the Dev Team Is Moving Onto New Projects

1 year 9 months ago

Skyrim Together Reborn, a mod that adds co-op to Bethesda's beloved RPG, has been downloaded more than 80,000 times in three days.

Despite its success, however, the development team behind the mod are officially moving on to other projects, telling the community that it's now up to them to improve it.

The team shared an update on reddit following Skyrim Together Reborn's release on July 8, saying it was happy with the launch as, while there were some technical difficulties, these were expected and most players were seemingly able to play as intended. The only major issue was that some servers didn't work, but a hotfix for this will be released soon.

"We are excited about the future of Reborn," the post read. "With thousands of man hours of work put into the project already, we have done most of the heavy lifting for you. With the mod going open source, it is now up to you, the community, to step up, and further develop Reborn

"The current dev team is very tired, and frankly, is simply interested in branching out and doing other projects. We will still be here to guide new developers, review code, and perhaps occasionally implement features and fixes. As for right now though, we need a break."

It's unclear what these other projects will be, but the team is also working on a Fallout Together mod that, as the name implies, brings co-op to Fallout 4.

HoYoVerse Teases Tighnari, Collei, and Dori For Genshin Impact

1 year 9 months ago

genshin impact collei tighnari

While Genshin Impact is still a whole Version away from Sumeru, HoYoVerse has teased three characters from the region: Dori, Collei, and Tighnari. Collei will be a Dendro Archer, while Tighnari will be a Dendro Catalyst user. Dori will be an Electro character. They will likely debut in Version 3.0.

For those who read the Genshin Impact prequel webtoon, Collei should be a familiar figure. She is the main character of the story, and her mission to take revenge on the Fatui drives the plot. As the webtoon takes place a few years before the start of the game, Collei is younger and has a different appearance in that media.

https://twitter.com/GenshinImpact/status/1546347989836345345

As for Tighnari, he is a completely new character in Genshin Impact. He will follow Heizou as the second officially confirmed male Catalyst user. The name of his constellation, Vulpes Zerda, is the scientific name for the fennec fox.

https://twitter.com/GenshinImpact/status/1546346856858324992

Finally, unlike Tighnari and Collei, Dori will be of the Electro element. It is unclear from the Genshin Impact splash art what weapon Dori will use. We do know from Tighnari's quote that she will be a merchant, which may mean that her passive Talent has something to do with Mora.

As spotted by Nors3 on Twitter (below), the game can no longer be purchased on Steam following instruction from Ubisoft to remove it from sale. "At the request of the publisher, Assassin’s Creed: Liberation HD is no longer available for sale on Steam," a notice on its page reads.

Beyond just being removed from sale, however, "this title will not be accessible following September 1, 2022", a second notice adds.

1 year 9 months ago

Dragon Ball SDCC

The 2022 Comic-Con International (a.k.a. the San Diego Comic Con) is coming. And with it, is a wave of exclusive merchandise for attendees. Bandai Namco Collectibles is bringing four Dragon Ball Z SDCC exclusive S.H. Figuarts figures to the event. SDCC exclusive items are usually sold only to Comic-Con attendees at the various exhibitor booths on the show floor. In some cases just the chance to purchase these items is subject to lottery-style distribution among certain groups of attendees. For its part, Bandai's exclusives - including the Dragon Ball Z SDCC figures - will be available at its booth.

The Dragon Ball Z SDCC exclusives for 2022 are based on Goku, Majin Buu, Shenron, and Android 16.

The Son Goku S.H. Figuarts figure is based on his Super Saiyan 2 power mode. A straight upgrade of the Super Saiyan transformation, Super Saiyan 2 is even more powerful. Its wielders have even spiker hair, a more dramatic aura, and occasionally flash with lightning. Goku has three pairs of hands, three faces, a halo, and a special set of visual effect parts.

The Majin Buu S.H. Figuarts figure is based on Majin Buu's Good form. In good form, the fearsome fighter is a portly paragon. He comes with two pairs of hands, three faces, an Angel Halo, and a handy chocolate bar.

Marauders Beta Kicks Off Next Week

1 year 9 months ago

Marauders, the upcoming PvPvE loot-and-raid sci-fi first-person shooter that combines on-foot FPS gameplay and spaceship dogfighting, is heading into a closed beta session next week.

From July 20-25, anyone who preorders Marauders will be able to participate in the closed beta on Steam. Developer Small Impact Games and publisher Team17 say that the closed beta will add two new Raid locations since the closed alpha a couple months ago: Merchant Ship, which they describe as "an expansive, breach-able frigate perfect for intimate and long-range firefights" and Terraformer, a "newly abandoned agricultural hub built on top of an asteroid shard."

We previewed Marauders during the closed alpha recently and came away impressed with the core gameplay loop. The closed beta will add a number of improvements made since the alpha, including the addition of the Heavy Thompson and the Klobb Machine Pistol weapons, as well as the ‘Scrap Bomb’ heavy explosive and "numerous quality-of-life improvements such a ‘Quick Loot’ option and foldable bags for economic inventory management."

Marauders will launch into Steam Early Access and Game Preview via PC Game Pass later in 2022.

The man who helped launch The Witcher, Dark Souls and Enslaved

1 year 9 months ago

It's a genuine pleasure to introduce one of the most well known faces of the UK games industry to you today, and more than that, someone who's helped bring among the biggest and most beloved game series to our shelves. I'm talking about the likes of The Witcher and Dark Souls - and they don't come much bigger than that.

I distinctly remember talking to this person around the launch of The Witcher 1, in fact, back when no one here knew what it was. Then several years later we were in a Scottish castle together at a lavish play test event for The Witcher 3 - an event they had a large hand in organising.

They've also had a significant hand in delivering many other games here, from Enslaved: Journey to the West to Ni No Kuni, and from Enter the Matrix to Pac-Man. There's a good chance they've been involved with many of the games you like in the more than two decades they've been promoting and marketing them.

The ongoing effects of Russia's invasion of Ukraine have left the project's announcement in "limbo", Venturebeat's Jeff Grubb has said, writing on Twitter that "GoldenEye is still in limbo because of the war".

Eurogamer also understands this to be accurate. We have contacted Microsoft for further comment.

The Last of Us Part 1 Remake Developer Says it's Not a 'Cash Grab'

1 year 9 months ago

An animator who worked on The Last of Us Part 1 remake has pushed back against the idea that it's just a "cash grab", and rather that is has had an incredible amount of care and effort behind it.

Robert Morrison – who also worked on God of War (2018), Resident Evil 7, and Injustice 2 – said The Last of Us Part 1 is, "the most meticulously built and crafted project that I have ever seen or been a part of in my entire career" in a tweet spotted by Eurogamer (below).

The game, which is a remake of the original 2013 PlayStation 3 version, has updated animations, new enemy AI based on The Last of Us Part 2, 60 frames per second performance, and an upgraded combat system.

It's faced some criticism online for its $70 price tag, however, with some suggesting that a remake shouldn't cost the same as brand new games such as Horizon: Forbidden West or Returnal. Morrison disagrees, saying that The Last of Us Part 1 remake has ""the highest level of care and attention to detail possible".
