In response to an article reporting one such way of doing this, Yang replied: “Hi, please don’t do this. The charger IC gets very hot and nearby thermal pads should not be moved. In addition, most 2242 m.2 drives draw more power and get hotter than what Deck is designed for.” Yang finished by writing that, while the mod in question “may appear to work”, it will “significantly shorten the life of your Deck”....
Square Enix recently presented a brief hands-off look at Forspoken in action, delving into plenty more details such as its open world, its magic-tinged combat and, er, a sentient bracelet that talks to you throughout. It was only a short glimpse, yet there’s a lot to unpack there - so Aoife’s collected 11 standout details you need to know about Forspoken, matched with a fresh look at the game in action....
Battlefield 2042 was dogged by technical issues and controversial design decisions when it launched last year, quickly attracting overwhelmingly negative reviews from players on Steam. Since then, developer DICE has continued to tweak and expand on Battlefield 2042’s wobbly base, but it’s often felt like too little, too late - with publisher EA admitting the game’s sales “did not meet expectations”, saying, “Some of the design choices we made…did not resonate with everyone in our community”....

This page outlines the Black Ops - Cold War and Warzone Season 3 Reloaded release time and what you have to look forward to during this mid-season update, as well what we know about the Rambo and John McClane bundles to join the 80s fever....
My guests wrote some of the wonderful pieces we published as part of Pride Week last week. They are show newcomers Ed Nightingale, a news reporter on Eurogamer - who you’ll recognise from the Newscast - and, all the way from tabletop land, Dicebreaker senior staff writer Alex Meehan. Alex often writes the Dicebreaker Recommends posts you see on Eurogamer each month. Ed helped organise Pride Week this year so we begin with his thoughts on it, before moving onto his interview with the first openly trans eSports caster, Eli “Captain Fluke”....
WolfEye’s Weird West mixes this vast, rancid legacy with outright fantasy elements sourced partly from the likes of Lovecraft and partly from the studio founders’ previous Dishonored games. This very much isn’t your classic rootin’ tootin’ cowboy yarn. Head out into the wilds and you’ll find raucous villages of pigmen and ghost towns that absent-mindedly manifest from the foundations up. Dip into the caves and you’ll encounter ravenous mutants and blue-stone temples where cultists debate visions of the apocalypse....
My guest today started their own label five years ago in the hope of doing things differently, and things have gone very well. Today, No More Robots employs 13 people and is responsible for games like Hypnospace Outlaw, Descenders, Not Tonight, and Yes, Your Grace. Good games. In fact, the recently-announced Dreamsettler, a spiritual successor to Hypnospace Outlaw, became the company’s most Wishlisted game - an important metric for predicting how a game will ultimately do....
PS Plus Essential is basically the Old PS Plus: it costs £49.99 per year and you get the usual monthly games, the online multiplayer access, the extra discounts in the digital store, and all the other old bits and bobs like cloud storage for your saves and the pretty nice assortment of PS Plus Essential games that arrived with the PS5. The other two tiers are the new things. The next one up is PS Plus Extra, which costs £83....
For the uninitiated, the aim of Wordle is to work out a daily five-letter word within six guesses. The fewer the guesses, the better - and if you fail to guess it at all, you’ll break your streak. The latter is why working out today’s Wordle answer is such a priority, as players pride themselves on keeping their streak going. So why gamble on a risky final guess when you can learn a few clues and, failing that, get the definitive answer?...

A jury has decided the companies must pay $3750 to Catherine Alexander, who designed tattoos for pro wrestler Randy Orton, after their likenesses appeared on Orton’s character in WWE 2K16, 17 and 18. Alexander had pushed for a higher amount, including a share of profits from the games, Reuters reported. Still, the decision appears to mark a landmark judgement that may affect future usage rights in other games in future....
That’s according to Xbox engineering lead Eden Marie, who noted on Twitter that: “While we all miss snap, I don’t think it’s coming back.” Snap was a key feature - and one of the few selling points - of the Xbox One at its launch. The handy ability let you stick an app to one side of your screen while continuing to play games alongside. Snap was useful for a few things....
As well as the game’s many recognised collectibles, there is also one additional hidden item - Pirate Treasure - in each of the game’s five worlds. Practically all of them require the game’s last ability - allowing you to fly for a short amount of time - to reach, but the wait will be worth it, unlocking three additional Trophies / Achievements for your time. If you need more help, then consult our Yooka-Laylee guide and walkthrough for finding Pagies and other collectibles....
It all starts when your character, a nameless man (James McAvoy), comes home from work to the miniscule apartment he shares with his wife (Daisy Ridley). The two have just settled down for a quiet evening together, when a policeman (Wilem Dafoe) burst into their home, and accuses the wife of murder. If you try to interrupt, he knocks you out. That’s how you discover you’re in a time loop - from the moment of your mysterious resurrection, you’re unable to leave the apartment, and guaranteed to become the perpetual punching bag for someone who’s having a very bad day....
Salt and Sacrifice, as is amply evident from its release date trailer below, reprises much that made the original so good, serving up another deliciously gloomy slab of side-scrolling exploratory platforming and measured combat. It promises to be more than a retread of past glories, however, offering players - this time in the role of a Marked Inquisitor - a range of new features to experiment with, including a refreshed choice of classes: Highblade, Paladin, Assassin, Cleric, Dualist, Fighter, Ranger, and Sage....
The update should result in greater stability and overall performance for the vast majority of players, Relic said in a blog post. It also enables crossplay between Steam and Microsoft Game Pass / Windows Store users. If your PC hardware does not let you run the new 64-bit update, there’s a 32-bit legacy beta on Steam. Meanwhile, an extensive community map patch, which includes 10 new maps and five reworked maps, is also now live....

According to u/Sagezu on Reddit, the bug - which is thought to have been introduced in the MMO’s most recent update - sees your item UI get stuck to the mouse pointer, essentially prohibiting you from doing anything else. In a thread entitled “GAME BREAKING VALTAN BUG ruined the whole raid by not being able to click !!!” the Lost Ark player even added a video to exemplify the issue: From the numerous responses from other players, it seems as though this isn’t an isolated issue, and looks to be affecting the game outside of the raid, too....
Twitterer Shinobi602 - a games industry brand manager - found themselves intrigued enough by the sci-fi horror’s most recent promotional video that they texted the number that pops up in the latest trailer. After texting the number, Shinobi received a mysterious video response. The secretive teaser flashes words like “secrets, answers, ARCAS, lies” and ends with a date: 29th September. Here, check it out for yourself: What does it mean?...
