Bethesda Reveals Full Quakecon Schedule With Redfall Panel, but Starfield Isn’t Listed

1 year 8 months ago

Today Bethesda revealed the full schedule of its upcoming Quakecon event that will be aired between August 18 and August 20.

As announced a while ago, the event will still be fully online with no in-presence portion, but it still promises plenty of fun to be had.

There will be content about released games like Ghostwire Tokyo, The Elder Scrolls Online, and Fallout 76, and upcoming games, like Arkane’s Redfall.

That being said, it appears that there isn’t any scheduled content dedicated to Starfield in the calendar.

There’s still a possibility that something may be said or shown during the welcome segment, which will be hosted by id Software’s Marty Stratton.

Below you can check out the schedule of the first day, with a full one available online.

Interestingly, Bethesda is going to provide a lot of localized streams from its regional offices, and you can also expect the Quake Pro League tournament to bring together the best competitors within the scene of the venerable first-person shooter.

A variety of activities like quizzes, PC building panels, and a cosplay competition complete the scenario.

Of course, you can expect coverage of all relevant news here on Twinfinite. It’ll be interesting to see if Starfield will indeed be completely missing or there will be surprise along the way.

MultiVersus Season 1 & Morty Release Delayed, Preseason Extended

1 year 8 months ago

The official MultiVersus Twitter account announced today that the upcoming season one release has now been delayed. Seeing as Morty Smith was also supposed to be releasing with the new season, his introduction to the game will also be delayed.

There has not been a new date announced for the start of season one at time of writing.

The actual Tweets read:

We want to let everyone know that we are delaying the start of Season 1 & the release of Morty to a later date. We know this might be disappointing for some and want to assure our Community that we are dedicated to delivering new and exciting content that delights players. We’ll let you know the timing as soon as we can. We appreciate your patience & enthusiasm and look forward to unveiling Season 1 very soon!

Just yesterday, players were finally given a look at the MultiVersus season one battle pass. The current pre-season battle pass was supposed to end on the Aug. 8, but it seems that might be extended. Seeing as MultiVersus has been trucking along as far as player count goes, a slight delay will likely not hit the game too hard.

We’ve given our own ideas as to what iconic characters could be joining the MultiVersus roster in the future, such as Jon Snow and Jesse Pinkman.

Stylish Horror Game Saturnalia Gets a New Gameplay Trailer Teasing Its Roguelite Elements, Monsters, & More

1 year 8 months ago

Today, developers Santa Ragione and Big Trouble pulled back the curtain on their upcoming survival horror title, Saturnalia. The stylish third-person spook-’em-up is heading to PC later in 2022.

Feel free to check out the new video down below in all its stylised glory:

As you can see in the footage above, Saturnalia boasts an incredibly eye-catching visual style: the art comprises of a hand-drawn sketch-like technique replete with a bold, vivid color palette. Further, the playable characters are rendered in 12FPS, while the creepy environments surrounding them are rendered at 60FPS, giving the entire experience a “kaleidoscopic” effect.

The video delves into what kind of gameplay players can expect. From environmental puzzle-solving to roguelite progression to investigative elements to even a monster that hunts you and your team, Saturnalia is full to the brim with intriguing ideas.

From what we can gather, it appears that the fictional town of Gravoi, which is the locale that you explore in the game, will be a major “character.” You see, when you die in Saturnalia, the actual town’s layout changes and evolves to help keep players on their toes and make them feel lost. Pretty neat idea, right?

For more information about the Italian-developed title, here’s a brief overview courtesy of the developers, Santa Ragione and Big Trouble:

A new set of Fortnite Weekly challenges has arrived, and this time around, players have been tasked with planting a Reality Sapling 30 or more meters from their location.

Everything You Need To Know About Angeal and Genesis Ahead of Crisis Core Final Fantasy 7 Reunion

1 year 8 months ago

It’s safe to say that die-hard fans of Final Fantasy 7 were just a little bit excited when it was revealed in June that the cult classic prequel Crisis Core would be getting a very shiny and polished remaster. Crisis Core was first released back in 2008 on PSP and is widely regarded by fans to be one of – if not the best – entries in the compilation of Final Fantasy 7.

The plot of Crisis Core sets up the events of the original Final Fantasy 7 and follows Zack Fair on his dream to become a hero as he rises through the ranks of the Shinra military to become SOLDIER 1st Class. Along the way, Zack encounters series protagonist Cloud Strife with whom he forms a brotherly bond and takes under his wing.

Crisis Core tells Zack’s heroic and ultimately tragic story while also serving as an origin of sorts for Cloud and his arch-nemesis, Sephiroth. Throughout the game, Zack encounters familiar faces and fan-favourite characters like Tseng and Aerith, but Crisis Core adds two new characters that would become crucial to the lore of the series.

As seen in the trailer, Crisis Core throws two new SOLDIERs into the mix, but who are they and just why are they so important to the world of Final Fantasy 7?

The Guard’s Valorant LCQ Hype Trailers Look Clean Enough to Pass as Official Lore

1 year 8 months ago

It’s crunch time for The Guard’s Valorant roster as they prepare to showdown with seven other of North America’s best teams in the Last Chance Qualifier (LCQ) tournament tonight. The team’s successes over the next few months are hugely consequential for The Guard, with not only prize money and glory on the line but also chances of securing a franchising partnership with Riot Games for 2023.

With so much at stake, The Guard has put together cinematic trailers to hype up the occasion and, hopefully, help cheer their team across the line. But these are no mere run-of-the-mill montages. Instead, they’re full-on cinematic trailers with exceptionally crafted CGI, and they look so good I thought I was at first watching official lore cinematics for the game.

Made by @dovanivan, the cinematic is part of a series The Guard has been running over the past week or so introducing their players ahead of LCQ. You can check out an example below for Trent.

A Super Fun Tom Holland Action Blockbuster Sets Its Sights on Streaming Domination

1 year 8 months ago

If you were to ask me whether or not the filmic adaptation of Nathan Drake’s video game escapades would be a hit or a miss, I would’ve probably wagered that’d it be a bust. My thought process behind that fact is largely because the Uncharted movie project had ostensibly been in development hell for many years before it finally reached theaters, which is usually a red flag for movies like this.

Nevertheless, despite my ambivalence for an Uncharted film (FYI, I absolutely love the video game series the source material is based upon), I still went to the cinema and checked it out for myself. My thoughts on the pic? Well, it’s a surprisingly entertaining popcorn flick with the beloved Spider-Man actor charming audiences with his doe-eyed charisma.

Today, however, it seems that the Uncharted movie has made a resurgence on streaming platforms. According to FlixPatrol, Uncharted has climbed its way to the number 5 spot on HBO’s bespoke streaming platform, meaning it’s one of the most watched films on there right now.

Boasting an impressive box office haul of $401.7 million off a budget of $120 million, it’s fair to say that the pic was a box office success. Further, the Uncharted film released at the tail-end of the pandemic, which likely impacted bums on seats due to ongoing restrictions around the globe.

Is Pokemon Scarlet and Violet an MMO?

1 year 8 months ago

If you’re wondering is Pokemon Scarlet and Violet an MMO, then you’re in the right place. Yes, in this guide, we’ll answer that very specific question. So, without further ado, let’s dive in, shall we?

Will Pokemon Scarlet and Violet be an MMO?

Interestingly, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will feature online multiplayer for the first time in the series’ history. This means that you’ll be able to party up with up to four of your friends or family and meet up, explore, collect, and battle together.

According to the game’s official site, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will:

[…] Allow multiplayer gameplay with up to four players.​ Along with series staples, such as trading and battling Pokémon, you will be able to explore the various locations of the region in these games with other players. You can discover new Pokémon and explore unfamiliar areas with your friends and family, opening the door to an adventure more precious and fun than ever!

Because of the new multiplayer component of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, it’s understandable to think that it could be described as an MMO (massively multiplayer online game). However, traditionally, MMOs feature much larger servers, which accommodate up to 100+ players at a time.

Is Pokemon Scarlet and Violet an Open World Game? Answered

1 year 8 months ago

As is the case with most new Pokemon games, Scarlet and Violet bring a number of changes, new creatures to catch and much more. Following the release of Pokemon Arceus: Legends, which experimented with a true open-world formula, some players are now wondering if Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are open world games?

Are Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Open World?

The good news is that yes, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are open world games. As noted on the official site for the latest entries in the series “Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet are the first open-world RPGs in the Pokemon series. As you enjoy the hallmarks of the series — meeting, teaming up with, battling, training and trading Pokemon — you’ll be able to immerse yourself in a newly evolved adventure.”

This isn’t a half-step measure that you might have expected either, the site goes on to explain that Scarlet and Violet will offer “a world that you’re free to explore at your leisure and not in an order dictated by the story.”

How Big Is the Open World?

Currently, Game Freak and The Pokemon Company have yet to announce how many towns and cities will make up the region players will explore in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, however, we do know that the games will take place in the Paldea Region.

According to a blog post, the Paldea Region is “a land of vast open spaces dotted with lakes, towering peaks, wastelands, and perilous mountain ranges.” The locations also seem varied, such as a “farming village with bountiful harvests” to a “port town with a bustling marketplace.”

You can see an overview of the Paldea region below.

Tactics Ogre: Reborn Officially Announced by Square Enix for PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch, & PC

1 year 8 months ago

Following the leak a couple of months ago, Square Enix has finally officially announced Tactics Ogre: Reborn.

It’ll release on November 11 with physical and digital Standard Editions on PS5, PS4 and Nintendo Switch, with a digital-only Standard Edition available on PC via Steam.

A Digital Premium Edition will also be available for all platforms.

Japan is also getting a Collector’s Edition which has not been confirmed for the west and for which I wouldn’t hold my breath.

The game is based on the 2010 PSP remake of the original Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together, but it doesn’t just improve the graphics and sound. The gameplay has also been evolved to create a new Tactics Ogre in line with the times.

Square Enix plans to provide veterans with an experience that surpasses their memories, while new players will enjoy an “unprecedented” experience.

The UI has been overhauled to enhance the quality of life, cutscenes will be fully voiced, sound effects have been redone, and the background music has been re-recorded.

The battles have been redesigned including the AI and character progression.

Characters and backgrounds have been redesigned in higher resolution, but the pixel art style has been preserved.

The redesign of the UI aims to make it easier to find information and simpler to complete tasks.

The new audio includes both English and Japanese voice-overs, and you can switch at any time.

The re-recorded music was produced by the original composer Hitoshi Sakimoto using a live orchestra. He also wrote new songs to integrate the soundtrack.

Does Gaara Die in Naruto Shippuden?

1 year 9 months ago

Death is a popular topic to talk about in the Naruto franchise. Some characters live while others die. Some characters are immortal. And some, and eventually A LOT of characters are simultaneously brought back to life in the series. But today we answer the question, does Gaara die in Naruto Shippuden?

Does Gaara Die in Naruto Shippuden?

If you’re okay with spoilers and looking for the short and sweet answer, then yes at some point in the series Gaara does in fact die. However, he only remains dead for a small period of time and is eventually brought back to life. For more details on how and why, the information is all right below here!

Who is Gaara in Naruto?

Naruto is one of the most well-known and beloved anime/manga franchises of all time, and has introduced many beloved characters into the franchise over the many years. Gaara is one of those beloved characters, but he did not start out beloved by everyone. Gaara was first introduced in the anime Naruto in Season 1 Episode 21 “Identify Yourself: Powerful New Rivals” and chapter 35 of the manga, where he was actually introduced as an upcoming antagonist of the Chunin Exams Arc.

It wasn’t until later on until episode 48 where we finally saw this come to fruition where he fought against another beloved character, Rock Lee, and almost killed him.

Gaara would then later go on to fight Naruto in episode 77 where the two clashed for multiple episodes until eventually, Naruto won. After this fight, he would then go through a substantial change in his personality, where in his last few appearances in Naruto, he would begin to make amends with those he had wronged in the past and began making some friends, starting with Naruto.

Joaquin Phoenix Will Return in 2024 for Joker: Folie à Deux

1 year 9 months ago

Back in June this year, director Todd Phillips shared the good news that Joaquin Phoenix’s Arthur Fleck AKA the Joker, will be returning for a sequel titled Joker: Folie à Deux. While that was certainly welcome news, not many other details were shared about the movie. Now, thanks to a report by Variety, we know that Joker: Folie à Deux will be set to debut on the big screen on October 4, 2024.

If you have been counting, that means the sequel is coming out five years exactly after the first film, which is poetic in its own right. While the release date is one to look forward to, it remains to be seen just what shape and form the film will take, with earlier reports suggesting that it will be a musical that will involve Lady Gaga joining the cast.

Director Todd Phillips, whose work on the first film saw 11 Academy Award nominations in total, will be returning to direct the sequel, while also co-writing the screenplay with Scott Silver. Having generated more than $1 billion globally, it will be a tough act to follow, but that is exactly what Warner Bros. is hoping to replicate or surpass.

Does Dead by Daylight Have Cross-Progression?

1 year 9 months ago

Since its release back in 2016, Behaviour Interactive’s survival horror asymmetric multiplayer experience, Dead by Daylight, has massively grown. Numerous events have introduced new killers and survivors from anime like Attack on Titan or survival horror experiences like Resident Evil. With so much content to indulge in, it’d only be fair for there to be a hot feature such as cross-progression in the game in order to bring the content anywhere and everywhere. Here’s what you need to know on whether or not Dead by Daylight has cross-progression.

Does Dead by Daylight Have Cross-Progression? – Answered

Technically speaking, Dead by Daylight does not have cross progression on standard consoles and PC. However, it does have cross progression between the Google Stadia and Steam.

Behavior Interactive has been pretty coy when it comes to implementing cross-progression in Dead by Daylight. The developer has given the response that it’s being worked on but no timetable or update has been given. However, if you own a Google Stadia and have a Steam account you can transfer over your data between both platforms.

The process of linking both Stadia and Steam for cross-progression is pretty straightforward. Sign in to or create a Behaviour Interactive account, and from there the option to link accounts will be present. Once that is complete, your progress and your inventory, which include DLCs, purchases, and skins, will be synchronized. Only one account can be linked per platform, and if you decide to unlink your account, you’ll lose your progress and be reset back to where you were before linking accounts.

2D Fighting Game The Rumble Fish 2 Coming to PS5, PS4, Switch, Xbox, & PC; Rollback Netcode Confirmed

1 year 9 months ago

Following the reveal for unspecified consoles a few weeks ago, 3goo announced the platforms and more details about the 2D fighting game The Rumble Fish 2.

The game will release worldwide this Winter for PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC. A specific release date has not been shared so far.

The Rumble Fish 2, was released in Japanese arcades in 2005 and it never made it officially to consoles, until now. It has since gained a cult following among fighting game lovers.

Known for their smooth anime-style animation thanks to the S.M.A. (Smooth Model Animation) tech, the series is fairly well known in Japan, but pretty obscure in the west, since it never was officially released in the arcades in Europe or North America.

This new port will include several adjustments and new features to bring it up to speed with the times, including 16:9 aspect ratio, online gameplay, a new training mode, and rollback netcode.

In training mode you can customize the AI behavior to learn your characters, and there is also a gallery mode that will let you enjoy the artwork, music, behind-the-scenes information, and more.

While the audio will be exclusively in Japanese, subtitles and menus will be provided in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, German, French, Chinese (simplified and traditional) and Korean.

You can check out a gallery of screenshots below, alongside the key artwork.

Halo 2 $20.000 LASO No-Death Challenge Beaten by Twitch Streamer JerValiN

1 year 9 months ago

The world of video games is already full of challenges, but sometimes, players just like to take things up a notch to prove their mastery of certain titles or genres. For Halo players, that has always been the case when it comes to completing a LASO campaign, meaning a full run on the hardest difficulty of Legendary with all gameplay modifiers, or Skulls, turned on. If that wasn’t enough to scare you off, how about the challenge of completing a full LASO run with zero deaths?

That was the gauntlet thrown down by content creator Charlie ‘Cr1tikal’ White to the Halo community at large. It is important to stress that other than not turning on the Envy Skull, which turns Master Chief invisible, every other Skull is working against the player. The first player to finish a Halo 2 Anniversary LASO run without dying even once will walk away with a $20,000 prize. The initial challenge with a $5,000 prize saw no takers, or perhaps, no one that competent to try, which led to Cr1tikal quadrupling his offer.

Enter Twitch streamer and Halo 2 speedrunner JerValiN, who not only took on the challenge, but crushed it in six hours, 29 minutes, and 44.17 seconds. This historic run involved not just careful and strategic gameplay, but also made use of certain skips and glitches to make life a little bit easier.

On August 3, Dead By Daylight developer Behaviour Interactive announced Meet Your Maker, a post-apocalyptic shooter with a heavy emphasis on player-created content in the form of building your own outposts and raiding the outposts of others. With such an intriguing concept, many players want to know how you can sign up for the game’s first closed playtest. Below, you’ll find a straightforward walkthrough covering how to do just that.

How to Sign Up for the Meet Your Maker Closed Playtest

The absolute first step to put yourself in the running for Meet Your Maker’s playtest is head to the game’s official website and click the button that says “sign up for the playtest” next to the Steam logo. From there, you’ll be asked to log into your Behaviour Account or be prompted to create one.

Once you’re logged into your Behaviour Account, clicking the playtest button will take you to another page that requires you to click a red button that reads “Sign up to the closed playtest.” From there, you’ll be asked to answer questions pertaining to your personal gaming preferences and general information for the selection process.

There are several questions to work through, but it shouldn’t take more than five minutes or so to reach the end. Once you’re finished, you’ll agree to terms and conditions then the process will be complete. If you see the following screen, you’ll know you’re all signed up.

Progress in Dinkum can be rather slow at times. It starts to pick up once you’ve gathered a few recipes, purchased the essential licenses and tools, and have a nice slice of heaven on the island. One of the toughest hurdles to jump is when you start needing Old Contraptions. It’s essential for creating useful machines. If you’re having trouble finding them, you aren’t alone; here’s how to get Old Contraption in Dinkum.

How to Get Old Contraption in Dinkum

There are multiple ways to get Old Contraptions in Dinkum, and every single method relies entirely on luck. Those methods include:

  • A possible reward from a Quarry
  • Using a metal detector
  • A possible reward from an Investigation Request

You’ll need a Metal Detecting License and the tool itself to get started, which you can purchase from Fletch and John for 500 Permit Points and 7,000 Dinks, respectively. Aim the metal detector and wait for the metal detector to beep erratically and pray that you uncover an Old Contraption.

Microsoft Flight Simulator Fokker F28, C-17, & Newark Airport Get New Screenshots & Dev Updates; Kagoshima Released & Pristina Announced

1 year 9 months ago

Third-party developers continue to work hard on add-ons for Microsoft Flight Simulator, and new reveals and a release have been shared today.

We start with Just Flight, which provided a development update and new screenshots of its upcoming Fokker F28 Fellowship vintage regional airliner.

“As mentioned in our last development update, the F28 team have been very busy working on extensive upgrades to the cockpit, and here some of the results!

Between the four variants of the F28, and the many operators over its decades of services, no two cockpits are guaranteed to be alike in the real-world. Therefore we have reconfigured the cockpit to match the real aircraft that we visited at the Fokker Technical College, for the most authentic environment possible. Our artists have upgraded the visual fidelity of every area of the cockpit and are now working on even higher texture resolution for pin-sharp clarity, whilst our testing team, which includes F28 flight, engineering and training crew, have been hard at work checking over every inch of the cockpit as development work progresses.

We’ve included some screenshots showing the stunning cockpit lighting. The F28 has a very different look to other airliners, including the hundreds of large and brightly-coloured annunciator and warning lights, adding to the unique and immersive feel of the aircraft.”

Steam Deck SteamOS Update 3.3 Released Adding New Features & Fixes Aplenty

1 year 9 months ago

Valve has released an update to the system software of the Steam Deck alongside its Steam Client.

The update includes several improvements that have been recently tested by users within the Beta and Preview channels, and there are quite a few interesting ones.

The Adaptive Brightness toggle is back, while the Xbox Login Window has been fixed for those who play Microsoft Games like Microsoft Flight Simulator and Halo Infinite.

Support Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese keyboard has been added, albeit it isn’t 100% finalized

A lot of progress has been made in fixing crashes, including those caused by screenshots and non-Steam shortcuts.

She-Hulk: Attorney At Law Delayed, Now Set to Air Weekly on Thursdays

1 year 9 months ago

Earlier today in a short trailer released on YouTube, Marvel Studios announced that the upcoming Disney+ series, She-Hulk: Attorney At Law will be slightly delayed.

When Does She-Hulk Attorney At Law Come Out

Originally set to begin two weeks from today on Aug. 17, the new MCU TV series is now scheduled to begin just a day later on Aug. 18 with new episodes coming out each Thursday.

This is a bit of a change from the standard set by Loki last year with new episodes premiering every Wednesday. There are currently no details from Marvel about why this change is happening or if future MCU TV programs will adopt this new weekly Thursday release schedule.

The nine episodes in She-Hulk: Attorney At Law are currently scheduled to release weekly on Disney+ every Thursday from Aug. 18 to Oct. 13. This marks the first time that an MCU TV show will have a nine-episode-long season since the first season of What If ran from Aug. 11 to Oct. 6 last year.

There aren’t any massive reveals in the new trailer like the last one that teased a Daredevil cameo. Yet, it’s worth noting that She-Hulk will be the first time seeing Charlie Cox back in the Daredevil suit since the third season of the Netflix series.

Other notable cameos include Tim Roth as Emil Blonsky/Abomination, Benedict Wong as Wong, and Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner/Hulk. The lead, Jennifer Walters/She-Hulk will be played by Canadian actor, Tatiana Maslany.
