All April long, the AT&T Annihilator Cup is happening on Twitch, featuring a host of popular personalities and a wide variety of games. Twenty high-profile streamers take on five wildly different game experiences to earn points, from fighting to asymmetrical horror to FPS action.
The event is live each Friday on the official AT&T Twitch channel. Also, it is definitely going to be interesting to see streamers that are well-versed in their genres of choice tackle games that might be way outside their expertise, like Street Fighter or Dead By Daylight.

Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is set to release exclusively for Nintendo Switch on June 24. It takes characters from Fire Emblem: Three Houses and puts them in a Warriors-style brawler. The scale of the battles is large, and the action takes place in real time. The game is now available to preorder at a number of retailers (see it on Amazon). You’ll find links and pricing below, along with any preorder bonuses if any are available.
There aren’t any special editions for Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, so the only question you need to answer is whether you want a physical or digital copy. You can sell physical copies, and they look good on the shelf, but they’re not as convenient as having a digital copy installed on your Switch or Switch OLED. Tough call.
Joel Embiid is a gift to the game of basketball. He’s a guy who is one of the best players in the NBA, and has a real chance to be named the league’s MVP this year. He is an unstoppable force on the court, so it may not surprise you too much to know he’s just as relentless off it as well. Even when he’s playing video…
Nerds' Kitchen and Ten Speed Press are releasing an official Witcher cookbook, and now it's available to preorder at Amazon (or Amazon UK).
Fully trademarked by CD Projekt Red, the book will feature 80 recipes that promise a new level of immersion into the Witcher universe.
Anita Sarna and Karolina Krupecka of Nerds' Kitchen (and its subsidiary Witcher Kitchen) have created the cookbook to emulate the foods that protagonist Geralt may encounter while hunting monsters on the path.

The included recipes are all inspired by various areas of The Witcher 3 including baked fruits from White Orchard, snacks from the markets of Oxenfurt, and a meal of fresh fish and mulled ciders from Skellige.
Hasan Kahraman, director of controversial indie game Abandoned, has reiterated that it has not been canceled, and said more content will come this year – including the game's Prologue, which will be a paid, standalone project.
Speaking to IGN's Destin Legarie, Kahraman explained that the recent decision to delete a number of tweets relating to the game's future plans was a mistaken attempt to keep information about the game relevant and up to date – but it instead led to rumors that the still-mysterious horror game was cancelled.
"I did not see that coming," he explained. "I didn't think that the community would respond that way. Basically, the tweets were deleted because some of the concept has changed, and I figured maybe just deleting the tweet and then tweeting more relevant information would be a better idea – which was actually not a good idea. I have learned now just to keep them. Even if the information or concept changed, just keep the older information because people eventually will see for themselves what the difference is and then see what's more actual."
Kahraman's studio, Blue Box, was forced to put out a statement saying that the game was still in development, and apologized for the lengthy silence around new information. The team said it had "underestimated our development roadmap" and delayed the reveal and release of the promised Prologue.
Today Happinet announced that the strategy game Brigandine: The Legend of Runersia will finally release on PC via Steam.
The game was previously released exclusively on Nintendo Switch and then ported to PS4, now it’s spreading its wings on a new platform and will launch on May 11, 2022, on Steam.
The pricing will be $39.99/£30.99/€33.99, with a launch week discount of $15% and you can already wishlist it now.
There are new features as follows:
“These features include a Creative Mode that unlocks after clearing Main Mode once. In this mode, players can pick their preferred power balance and starting knights and play at leisure without a time limit. There are 13 starting power balance templates to choose from. Players can also customize the affiliation of each base if they so desire; a New Game+ feature to load a cleared game save data and start a new game with items carried over; and Battle Map HP Display for units to have their HP displayed on the battle map.”
We learn that the console versions have sold a cumulative total of 130,000 copies which isn’t bad for a game that’s certainly very niche.

20th Century Studios has given fans another look at The Bob’s Burgers Movie with the latest trailer, teasing at the mayhem and chaos to come for the beloved Belcher family.
Rather than just be another straight-up animated movie, this outing will be an animated, big-screen, musical comedy-mystery-adventure. Needless to say, we can expect plenty of content for a feature-length film. With the show now already in its twelfth season and more than two hundred episodes, the Belcher family is far from being done.
Here is the official description for the movie:
“The Bob’s Burgers Movie” is an animated, big-screen, musical comedy-mystery-adventure based on the long-running Emmy®-winning series. The story begins when a ruptured water main creates an enormous sinkhole right in front of Bob’s Burgers, blocking the entrance indefinitely and ruining the Belchers’ plans for a successful summer. While Bob and Linda struggle to keep the business afloat, the kids try to solve a mystery that could save their family’s restaurant. As the dangers mount, these underdogs help each other find hope and fight to get back behind the counter, where they belong.
Like two interlocking bricks clicking together, both the LEGO and Star Wars properties have found mutual success joining forces since their first collaboration back in 1999. Spanning books, movies, TV shows, and — most importantly — video games, these two emblematic licences have made a pair of recognizable brands exponentially more recognizable through their partnership. But with Traveller’s Tales’ latest block-shaped outing, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, has the series used the force or fallen to its demise down a reactor core? Let’s jump in, shall we?
First things first, it’s important to note that LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is an ambitious project that packs in all nine core movies into one jumbo-sized video game collection. That’s right, each of the respective films from that galaxy far, far away has been lovingly recreated in surprisingly impressive detail. From young Anakin’s descent to the dark side of the force in the prequels to the rise of the Resistance in the original trilogy to the concluding chapters of the sequel trilogy, no stone is left unturned by the UK-based studio.
Upon first booting up the game, you’ll be greeted with an incredibly charming menu popping with nostalgic stop-motion LEGO animation. Here, you’ll be given the option to dive into the first episode of each trilogy, and upon completion, you’ll unlock subsequent episodes in said trilogy. In essence, I’m happy to report that you do get a choice as to where you want to begin your new Star Wars adventure, which is always welcome.
F1 Delta Time, an official NFT and crypto-powered racing game that launched back in 2019, closed its doors last month. This leaves everyone who had spent money and invested in the project probably wishing they had done something else with their time.
Today Atlus released its new daily trailer of the upcoming JRPG Soul Hackers 2, focusing on one of the demons included in the game.
This time around the trailer shows Loki, who has been around pretty much forever in the Shin Megami Tensei. His looks are similar to what we have seen in the original Soul Hackers.
As usual, we also get the daily horoscope, with Virgo at the top of the fortune ranking, while Cancer is at the bottom.
Soul Hackers 2 releases for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC (Steam and Windows Store) on August 26, just one day after the Japanese launch on August 25.
The buzz around the launch of the Steam Deck may have died down a little, but there are still many of us waiting for Gabe Newell to deliver us the portable machine that can play PC games on the go. Perhaps reflecting on the confusing launch of the device, Valve has moved to make things clearer for consumers.
In a tweet on the official Steam Deck Twitter account, Valve has stated that the first wave of order emails have been sent out to Q2 reserves, while shipments are ramping up. There will also be more order availability emails sent out weekly.
Lost Ark got its English release just a couple weeks back, and Smilegate RPG certainly hasn’t taken their foot off the pedal when it comes to supporting the game with even more updates and content. The developers posted an overview and content roadmap for April and May today, giving players an idea of what to expect in the coming months.
This month, we’ll see the introduction of the Glaivier, which is a new advanced class for the Martial Artist. We’ll also see the new South Vern continent, which will continue the story and introduce plenty of new NPCs and quests for players to tackle. South Vern is a Tier 3 continent, and players will need an item level of 1,340 in order to get in.
Looking forward to May, Smilegate also promises that players will see the new Destroyer advanced class, along with Trial Guardian Raids which will serve as a new weekly activity to take on. However, the developers also stated that the Deskaluda Guardian Raid and Valtan Legion Raid may end up getting pushed back to a later date, depending on how the community is progressing.
The idea here is to not put pressure on the majority of the player base or to make them feel like they need to grind to catch up, so the release of those raids will likely depend on player progress in May.
Lost Ark is now available on PC.
Sea of Thieves might have had a rough launch, but it’s quickly become one of the most enjoyable multiplayer games available on Xbox. It’s also a pretty grindy game, with the highly sought after Pirate Legend title being locked behind a requirement of maxing out your reputation with all three factions in the game.
Rare has just announced that the game has finally reached the one million mark in terms of Pirate Legend ranks achieved, which is a pretty monumental milestone. To celebrate, the developers are starting off Legends Week, which will run from April 4 to April 11.
This celebration will offer login bonuses for all Pirate Legends, Gold and Glory bonuses for all players, as well as a closer look at the Legend of the Veil Voyage. You can read up on the full details of the celebration event here.
For fans of The Witcher, especially the Henry Cavill variant on Netflix, there is some good news. The streaming platform has announced via Twitter that season three of The Witcher is currently in production, and Netflix has provided an accompanying synopsis as well.
Here’s what fans can expect for the third season:
As monarchs, mages, and beasts of the Continent compete to capture her, Geralt takes Ciri of Cintra into hiding, determined to protect his newly-reunited family against those who threaten to destroy it. Entrusted with Ciri’s magical training, Yennefer leads them to the protected fortress of Aretuza, where she hopes to discover more about the girl’s untapped powers; instead, they discover they’re landed in a battlefield of political corruption, dark magic, and treachery. They must fight back, put everything on the line – or risk losing each other forever.
As much as I’ve enjoyed Battlefield 2042, I’m also aware that most long-time fans of the series have not been enjoying the game’s launch, equipped with a long list of complaints that range from the game’s lack of polish to its overall feel. And while DICE have slowly been chipping away at some of those smaller issues (…
Today Spike Chunsoft announced a release window and released new assets of its upcoming JRPG Made in Abyss: Binary Star Falling into Darkness.
We learn that the game (which was revealed back in May 2021) will launch in North America and Europe in fall 2022 for PS4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam.
The pricing will be $59.99 for the standard edition, while the Collector’s Edition will be priced at $89.99.
The game will be rated M for Mature by the ESRB, which is in line with the atmosphere and tone of the anime that inspired it.
The Collector’s Edition includes the following:
“The Collector’s Edition includes a 24″ x 36″ commemorative movie-sized cloth poster featuring new exclusive art by Kinema Citrus, the team behind the Made in Abyss anime, and your very own Cave-Raiding Notebook, containing pictures and information about primeval creatures, Relics, and Whistles, as well as space to take your own notes while diving into the netherworld. Everything comes packaged together in a Collector’s Edition outerbox!”
Below you can check out the trailer, box art, Collector’s Edition content, and new localized screenshots.
Square Enix definitely hasn’t slacked as far as updates to their mobile games are concerned. War of the Visions: Brave Exvius recently got its second anniversary and Final Fantasy VI collaboration event, and now it looks like SINoALICE players will have a chance to collect characters from Kakegurui as well.
SINoALICE is a little unique in that it features a story and world created by Yoko Taro, as well as a soundtrack composed by Keiichi Okabe. It certainly invokes a lot of NieR vibes, making it one of the darker gacha games out right now. And that makes it a weirdly good fit with Kakegurui, the popular anime series about high school gamblers who love leaving it all on the line.
You can check out the trailer down below:
The Kakegurui XX collaboration event will arrive in the global version of the game on April 26, while the Japanese version will get it a little earlier, on the 12th.
Players will be able to collect characters like protagonist Yumeko Jabami, as well as other popular faces like Mary Saotome, Midari Ikishima, Kirari Momobami, and Sayaka Igarashi.
SINoALICE is now available on mobile devices.
Since Elden Ring came out in February, some players, who apparently don't find the base game difficult enough already, have started looking for ways to make the latest FromSoft title more of a challenge. This includes Twitch streamer Seki, who has just completed the game's very first recorded no-hit/no damage run live on stream, Kotaku reports.
While fellow streamer GinoMachino already completed a no-hit Elden Ring run in March, Seki's version adds another layer of difficulty, where taking any kind of environmental damage or fall damage will also result in having to start the run over again.
WE GOT THE RUN!!!!!!! WORLD'S FIRST NO-HIT/DAMAGE ELDEN RING. SHOUTED MY LUNGS OUT LOL #ELDENRING pic.twitter.com/E46WSlXU3v
In MLB The Show 22, getting caught stealing can deflate an otherwise strong inning and take the momentum out of your offense, so it's important to know how to cancel a steal before your runner takes off, as well as how to retreat once they've left the base but may be caught in a pickle. Here's what you need to know about The Show's complex but fully featured baserunning controls as they pertain to attempting and canceling a stolen base.
First, we'll walk you through how to steal, as the button combination to undo that is sort of its mirrored reflection on your controller. We'll be using the game's default baserunning controls for this guide.
To steal with all runners, press LT / L2 as the pitcher begins their delivery. That one is nice and simple. If you need to steal with a particular runner, point the left stick toward their base and press LT / L2. Stealing is all about timing, so don't do this until you're ready for them to go--that's why we say to wait until the pitcher's delivery has started. A bit of a lead off makes for a nice head start too, but lead off too far and you're likely to get picked off, so be careful with how far off the base you go. To lead off all runners, press LB / L1. Similarly, individual runners can lead off if you again use the left stick plus the lead off button, LB / L1.
Now that you know how to steal, here's how you change your mind, which will no doubt be crucial eventually even if you haven't encountered such an issue yet. Once you've elected to steal, you can't exactly recall the runner, but what you can do--if the pitcher hasn't started their delivery yet--is call for a timeout by pressing down on the D-pad. This will reset all baserunning directions such as lead offs and steals, giving you a chance to rethink your strategy.
Lost Ark is set to receive some major content updates over the next two months, including two new classes previously released in the Korean version of the game.
Those two classes making their way into the Western version of Lost Ark are the Glaivier, a female Martial Artist who wields a spear and glaive, and the Destroyer, a male Warrior class who dishes out damage with a massive hammer. The Glaivier will come in April while the Destroyer will be released in May, according to an Amazon blog post outlining Lost Ark's upcoming content roadmap.
The new DPS classes are just the tip of the content iceberg, with Amazon planning on rolling out numerous other endgame activities and areas in the coming weeks. In April, players will be able to explore the new continent of South Vern. There will also be a number of quality-of-life updates coming this month, like improvements to Secret Maps and Book of Coordination settings, along with new events, log-in rewards, and a Feiton Powerpass that will boost a new character to 960 item level.
Looking ahead to May, Amazon is planning to introduce Trial Guardian Raids as another weekly endgame activity, as well as a brand new proper Guardian Raid in the form of Deskaluda. Amazon is also looking to bring the first Legion Raid, Valtan, to the Western version of Lost Ark in May. Legion Raids require eight players and introduce a number of new mechanics, with Amazon describing Legion Raids as "the definitive Lost Ark raiding experience." May will see further quality-of-life additions like UI updates, improved party finder tools, an update to loot dismantling, and new hairstyle customizations.
If you're trying to track down all of the legendary spells in Elden Ring, you'll need to get your hands on Flame of the Fell God. Luckily, this powerful incantation can be grabbed relatively early in the game by defeating a simple boss in Liurnia of the Lakes. In this guide, we'll tell you exactly where to go to face said boss so that you can obtain the spell and be one step closer to completing your collection.
Flame of the Fell God is an incantation that requires 41 Faith to cast. It summons a giant fireball that explodes after some time and sets the surrounding area ablaze. Due to its slow travel speed, it's really only useful for dealing AOE damage to slower, more stationary enemies. Anything else is likely to evade the radius and waste your FP.
Flame of the Fell God's item description reads:
This legendary incantation is one of several that draws directly from the power of the Fire Giants. Releases a ball of raging fire said to be inhabited by a fell god. The fireball floats toward enemies and explodes, setting the area ablaze. Arghanthy, the chief guardian of the Flame, had kept this incantation a well-kept secret until it was stolen by Adan. The fell god still lurks within the Fire Giants.
Flame of the Fell God is obtained by defeating Adan, Thief of Fire at the Malefactor's Evergaol in southern Liurnia of the Lakes. You can reach the evergaol by traveling west through the marsh to reach the long and slender landmass, then heading to the east.
When you get up to bat in MLB The Show 22, you want to make sure you're ready for anything. When playing on higher difficulties, especially, you can expect that it's not going to be all that easy to hit a small ball coming at you at autobahn speeds. But while nothing but practice is going to perfect your swing, the game does offer you an opportunity to make life just a tiny bit easier with its Guess Pitch feature. In this guide, we'll walk you through how to enable and disable Guess Pitch, as well as how to use its various types.
Hold R2 / RT during the wind-up to bring up a list of pitches in the pitcher's repertoire.. You'll see corresponding buttons beside each pitch, and pressing one of those buttons on your controller will select that pitch as your guess.
When trying to guess what pitch is coming your way, consider both the context of the game and the preference of your opponent. This can be tricky when facing other players in PvP, as they're not really bound by any real-world logic. If they want to throw sliders for an entire game, they can, whereas the CPU will more likely use pitches that make sense based on its internal logic.
That means, for example, being down in the count 3-0 should promise a pitcher's next pitch is going to be away from the edges of the batter's box and probably not a breaking ball. Similarly, if you know you're facing an elite pitcher who loves to throw a curve for strike three, you should use that data to at least guess the pitch, if not the location. Use the ample on-screen data after every pitch, and in time you may find patterns that you can exploit.
Elden Ring is filled to the brim with spells to uncover and use during your journey throughout the Lands Between. From wildly powerful offensive magic to incredibly useful defensive buffs, you're certain to want to gather and try them all. However, finding the game's seven legendary spells will net you a trophy and often progress some intriguing quests, making them some of the most important ones you can round up. We've decided to make things easier on you by condensing links to all of the legendary spell locations in this single handy hub, so bookmark it for reference as you track them all down.
Rounding up Comet Azur requires a trip into Mt. Gelmir, a mid-game area that shouldn't take you too long to reach during your travels.
Elden Stars can be a bit of a time-consuming find, as you'll need to make your way through some underground areas to Deeproot Depths.
Flame of the Fell God is one of the simplest legendary spells to snag, as it just requires a quick trip into Liurnia of the Lakes to beat a fairly easy boss.
Getting to Founding Rains of Stars will mean tackling a tricky puzzle in a late-game area, but we'll walk you through how to make that happen.
Kamisato Ayato, the Yashiro Commissioner and Ayaka's brother, is out now in Genshin Impact. Hydro and a sword-wielder, Ayato's damage is nothing to sneeze at. Where he stacks in the meta of damage (compared to Hu Tao and Ayaka) is currently unknown, but he could easily become the centerpiece of your freeze team. Here's all you need to know about Kamisato Ayato's abilities, artifacts, and more.
After originally launching this past November, Epic Games is giving all of its users on the Epic Games Store access to an entire achievements menu.
Starting today, Epic Games Store users will be able to find a "My Achievements" area in the dropdown menu found by clicking on their profile picture. This area acts as a hub for all of the achievements and friends a user has on the Epic Games Store.
New features have been added to the Epic Games Store launcher, and there are even more on the way!
— Epic Games Store (@EpicGames) April 4, 2022
Read about the latest "My Achievements" update: https://t.co/Wb14a6ZAGk pic.twitter.com/obIVSRh2En
By clicking on a friend's name, users will also be able to see their achievements and vice versa. The page immediately shows how many achievements have been unlocked, how many have been platinumed, and how much XP someone has. Of course, anyone who doesn't want to have their achievements seen by other people can set their privacy settings to limit who can view that information.
On your quest to obtain all of the legendary spells in Elden Ring, you'll need to grab Stars of Ruin. However, this one will require you to put some effort into one of the game's sorcery-focused side-quests. Don't worry, though, because we've got all of the info you'll need to track down this sorcery and add it to your collection.
Stars of Ruin is a sorcery that requires 43 Intelligence to cast. It fires homing stars at enemies dealing significant poise damage. Because of this, it's especially useful in PvP encounters.
Stars of Ruin's item description reads:
Legendary sorcery devised by Lusat, primeval sorcerers. Fires twelve dark shooting stars that pursue the target. This sorcery can be cast while in motion. Charging increases potency. When Lusat glimpsed into the primeval current, he beheld the final moments of a great star cluster, and upon seeing it, he too was broken.
Stars of Ruin is found inside Sellia Hideaway in Caelid. While you can access this exceptionally well-hidden cave at any point, getting the spell requires an item gained during a side-quest. That being said, make sure you follow our Sorceress Sellen Quest Guide until you reach the point where she grants you the Sellian Spellbreaker and requests that you seek out Master Lusat.
Once you're in possession of the Sellian Spellbreaker, head to northeastern Caelid to the location on the map below. You'll notice a sorcerer standing in front of a tall tombstone in this area. Behind the tombstone is an illusory wall that you can break to access Sellia Hideaway.
Are you trying to track down every legendary spell in Elden Ring? Well, you're going to need to round up Elden Stars, then. This incantation will require you to find and access Deeproot Depths, but once you're there, it's quick and easy to pick up. Keep reading for how to find and add it to your arsenal of spells.
Elden Stars is an incantation that requires 50 Faith to cast. It unleashes a slow-moving projectile that fires off shooting stars for AOE damage. While each shooting star does mediocre damage, they do break posture quickly, giving you an opportunity to go in for a critical hit.
Elden Stars' item description reads:
This legendary incantation is the most ancient of those that derive from the Erdtree. Creates a stream of golden shooting stars that assail the area. It is said that long ago, the Greater Will sent a golden star bearing a beast into the Lands Between, which would later become the Elden Ring.
Elden Stars is found in Deeproot Depths just west of the beginning of the area. From the Great Waterfall Crest Site of Grace, head forward over some branches until you spot one that leads directly into a small opening on the cliffside.
Finding all of the legendary spells in Elden Ring takes some dedication, and in the case of Ranni's Dark Moon, it requires that you follow a lengthy questline and then solve a clever puzzle. If you're feeling a bit stuck, don't worry--we've got you covered with this guide on how to get your hands on this sorcery.
Ranni's Dark Moon is a sorcery that requires 68 Intelligence to cast. It launches a dark moon that inflicts damage and builds up frostbite on foes, which makes it an exceptionally useful spell for frost builds.
Ranni's Dark Moon's item description reads:
Legendary sorcery associated with the Carian queen. Uses the caster as a vessel to incarnate a cold, dark moon, then sends it floating toward foes. The dark moon dispels all sorcery that touches it, and temporarily reduces magic damage negation for those it strikes. The moon was encountered by a young Ranni, led by the hand of her mother, Rennala. What she beheld was cold, dark and veiled in occult mystery.
Ranni's Dark Moon is found inside of a chest within Chelona's Rise high atop the plateau in southern Liurnia of the Lakes. Reaching this part of the zone requires you to complete a long and winding questline for Ranni. Follow our Ranni the Witch quest guide to make that happen, then prepare to solve a puzzle to get your hands on the spell you're after.
So you're wanting to get Greyoll's Roar in Elden Ring, but you're not quite sure how to make it happen. Well, it's not going to be a quick feat unless you're packing quite a high level and some excellent weaponry. But don't worry--just because it may take a while doesn't mean it's a difficult spell to obtain, and we'll walk you through how to make it happen in this guide.
Greyoll's Roar is an incantation that requires 28 Faith and 17 Arcane to cast. It emits a massive AOE roar that deals heavy damage to foes while reducing their damage by 20% and increasing the damage they take by 10% for a full 60 seconds. This makes it an extremely powerful option against bosses.
Greyoll's Roar's item description reads:
Superior incantation of Dragon Communion. Channels the power of Greyoll, the Elder Dragon. An incantation of legendary status. Transforms caster into a dragon to emit a terrible roar, reducing the attack power and defense of nearby enemies. Greyoll was the mother of all dragons, dwarfing all who stood before her like a looming mountain.
Greyoll's Roar can be purchased from the Dragon Communion Altar using a Dragon Heart, but you must defeat the great dragon Greyoll before being able to unlock it. Greyoll is found just outside of Fort Faroth in eastern Caelid.
Rounding up every spell in Elden Ring is quite the undertaking, but certain sorceries and incantations happen to be well off the beaten path. In the case of Comet Azur, it's not particularly difficult to find, but it's nevertheless easy to overlook if you're not carefully examining your surroundings. In this guide, we'll tell you precisely where you can find this extremely powerful sorcery.
Comet Azur is a sorcery that requires 60 Intelligence to cast. It fires a stream of magical energy and can devastate many bosses and groups of enemies with ease. This makes it a must-have for any sorcery builds looking to max out their damage potential.
Comet Azur's item description reads:
Legendary sorcery devised by Azur, primeval sorcerer. Fires a tremendous comet in a torrent akin to the distant starry expanse, the place said to be the origin of glintstone. Hold to continue releasing the sorcery's power. When Azur glimpsed into the primeval current, he saw darkness. He was left both bewitched and fearful of the abyss.
Comet Azur can be found in Hermit Village on the outer rim of Mt. Gelmir. To reach the Hermit Village, head directly south of Fort Laeidd and follow the path over the magma. Continue onward, fighting your way through a variety of demi-human enemies and a giant bear that will be keen on ending your life.
Elden Ring features a smorgasbord of spells from which to choose, giving you ample options in how you go about slinging magic at your enemies. Tracking them all down can be daunting at times, especially when puzzles stand in your way. Such is the case with Founding Rain of Stars, so we're going to give you the lowdown on how to snatch up this cleverly-hidden sorcery.
Founding Rain of Stars is a sorcery that requires 52 Intelligence to cast. This spell is great for packs of relatively slow-moving foes, as it produces star rain in a wide area for a period of time.
Founding Rain of Stars' item description reads:
The eldest primeval sorcery, said to have been discovered by an ancient astrologer. A sorcery of legendary status. Summons a dark cloud of stars overhead. Shortly after, the cloud will release a violent deluge of star rain. This sorcery can be cast while in motion. Charging increases potency. Thought to be the founding glintstone sorcery. The glimpse of the primeval current that the astrologer saw became real, and the stars' amber rained down on this land.
Founding Rain of Stars can be obtained in Mountaintops of the Giants by solving the puzzle of Heretical Rise. This tower is located in the northern part of the biome and can be a bit tricky to figure out.
The puzzle mentions that "falling snow marks something unseen." This is referring to an invisible bridge that begins across the ravine and leads up to the inside of the tower [2]. In order to access it, you'll need to wrap around to the other side and find the beginning of a broken bridge [1].
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is now available for just $30--its lowest price since launching in 2020. The deal is running through Best Buy, and it only applies to physical versions of the game. Free pickup is available at select locations, or you can pay a small shipping fee to have it sent to your home before the end of the week.
Amazon was running the same promotion earlier today--but it's already sold out. If you're interested in the savings, we'd recommend checking out Best Buy as soon as possible, as there's no telling how long inventory will last.
Our Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity review found the game to be a fun spin-off, even if its story leaves a bit to be desired.
Super Meat Boy and The Binding of Isaac creator Edmund McMillen is making a subscription program that will deliver monthly boxes of Isaac merch.
The Unboxing of Isaac is the name of the service McMillen is introducing alongside Maestro Media, the company behind the tabletop game The Binding of Isaac: Four Souls. The Binding of Isaac fans can expect all kinds of goodies in the monthly package, including shirts, artwork, stickers, and each box contains three new cards to use in the tabletop game.
In a press release shared with Game Informer, we have the contents of the first three months and the themes associated with them. It also shares a quote from McMillen about why this subscription box exists.
"The most requested merch item during the Kickstarters was t-shirts, and although we did some, we really wanted to push it and make a series of bold and creative Isaac-themed merch that fans will love," says McMillen. "You asked and we listened!"
Here's what subscribers can expect in the first three boxes:

The Amazon Spring Sale has landed and there's thousands of bargains to be had on a huge range of products. This includes a fantastic selection of gaming deals we found nestled between the Shark hoover and air fryer offers. We thought we'd share them here and help you get straight to the good stuff.
From PC gaming accesories deals including headsets, keyboards and mice from the likes of Razer, Corsair and Logitech, to discounts on SSDs and hard drives from Western Digital, Samsung and Crucial, there's plenty of affordable offers to suit all kinds of budgets. You can land big discounts on gaming monitors and laptops, as well as cheap 4K TVs from LG and Samsung. There's also a small pool of Xbox, PS5 and Nintendo Switch games and accessories deals including Biomutant on PS4 for just £12.74.
The Amazon Spring Sale started on 1st April 2022 and runs through to 13th April 2022. We expect the online retail giant will add new deals throughout the promotion and we'll be keeping track of the best offers right here.

I finally taught myself the Charlier cut this weekend. It's a card move: a one-handed shuffle in which you basically flip one part of the deck up over the other using the thumb and index finger. I'd been trying to learn it for an absolute age - it's seen as being a deeply simple piece of business, yet I struggled. In the end, there were two reasons it finally clicked for me. The first was a day of telephone calls, which gave me a lot of time to practice, phone tucked between shoulder and neck. The second, and this is quite weird, was switching to using my left hand. I'm right-handed, but for some reason I can only do this cut with the left.
There is often a quirk to learning magic, even the very simple non-magic magic of the Charlier cut. I am bad at card tricks in general, but deeply, perhaps foolishly, enthusiastic: I have learned enough bits and pieces now to know that I should always be surprised at what makes something come together for me.
This sense of surprise is perfectly captured in one of my very favourite novels. In fact, if the mark of how much you love a book is how often you buy it for other people, this must be the book I love the very most of all. It's Carter Beats the Devil, by Glen David Gold. If you haven't read it, today I'm going to try and convince you to pick it up.
Samsung is not just one of the most widely-known electronics companies in the world, but also one of the best. And in the UK, they currently have a spring sale on many of their products, from TVs, phones ,laptops and even home appliances such as fridge freezers.
The highlight seems to be the new Galaxy S22 and S22+ available with a big £200 discount after trading in any Android phone in any condition. There are some terms and conditions to this but it seems quite generous if you're looking to get rid of your current phone or have an older one lying around.
This deals also comes with 12 months of Disney+ which has great movies and shows, including all things Star Wars and Marvel, as well as a free pair of Galaxy Buds Pro, Samsung's wireless Bluetooth earbuds.
Elden Ring boss Radahn was accidentally nerfed in a patch, but now he's back to full strength.
FromSoftware's previous patch for the game added new features like NPC icons and quests, as well as balance changes. But nerfing the infamous boss Starscourge Radahn was unintentional.
Now a new patch is available that fixes "a bug in the balance adjustment of the boss Starscourge Radahn in update 1.03, in which the power of some attacks was unintentionally reduced".
Late yesterday, developer Gamious and publisher Whitehorn Games announced that their narrative-focused slice-of-life adventure game, Lake, will be launching on PS4 and PS5 on April 8. Having previously released on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox Game Pass, and PC back in Sept. 2021, Lake is a relaxing journey through a smalltown in the USA called Providence Oaks.
The news comes by way of a tweet from the game’s official Twitter account, which you can check out for yourself down below:
Lake lovers, listen up! We're super excited to finally bring our game to @PlayStation this Friday, April 8th!
Thanks for your patience, everyone. Granted, it needed a little time in the oven, but now that it's (almost) here, we hope you'll enjoy it. Who wants coffee and pie?https://t.co/TRodS2P6Xs
Razer is known for its black-and-green gaming keyboards, headsets and desktops. And now, add regional headquarters to that illuminated list.
