The second season of HBO’sThe Last of Usadaptation is coming this April, and like many, I’ve been hungry for new details of what’s to come. There’s already been a little bit to analyse – for example,Editor-in-Chief Stacey Henleyand I havealready disagreedover the importance of Kaitlyn Dever’s diminutive stature and how much of an impact it will have on her portrayal of Abby Anderson, and our opinions are solely based off of what we’ve seen in trailers....

The Nemesis System has been heralded by many as one of the most innovative game mechanics in recent years, perhaps even of all time. The system was created by Monolith Productions forMiddle-earth: Shadow of Mordorback in 2014 and essentially makes it so that your enemies remember what you do. They’ll become immune to tactics and weapons you’ve used before and chase you around the open world after you defeat them in battle for the first time....

The Darkness-type may not be as underrepresented inPokemon TCG Pocketin the same way as Dragon or Steel-types. However, it does lack many of the options that other types have. Pokemon TCG Pocket’s Space-Time Smackdown heavily improves the effectiveness of Darkness-types by making them both devastating within their own ranks or flexible in other decks that don’t necessarily focus on Darkness-types. Space-Time Smackdown also includes the first Darkness ex Pokemon to strengthen the collection further than ever before....

Quick Links When played correctly, Doctor Strange can be one of the most formidable vanguards inMarvel Rivals. His ultimate is a genuine game changer, able to turn the tide of battle when used strategically. Between that and well-placed portals, Doctor Strange can prove quite difficult to play into. In addition to his more unique and special abilities, Doctor Strange is also just really good at mitigating damage thanks to his shield....

Summary A gaming insider has claimed that the rumouredTony Hawk’s Pro Skater3+4 remake is real and will be shadowdropped duringXbox’s Summer Showcase. As we all know,Activisionhas made a ton of bad business decisions over the years,from its treatment of Crash Bandicoot and Spyroto how it’sturned most of its developers into Call of Duty support studios. Perhaps the most painful and confusing choice it made, though, was when itreportedly cancelled a remade collection of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 and 4....

Quick Links The Universal Century timeline isMobile Suit Gundamto its core. It isthemain timeline, having started off as theonlytimeline from its 1979 inception all the way until 1994’s Mobile Fighter G Gundam. While several other universes have been introduced - Gundam SEED’s, Gundam 00’s, and The Witch from Mercury’s, to name a few - the franchise keeps returning to this one. Understandably, most Gundam diehards strongly recommend giving Universal Century a shake....

Summary Last year,among the sweltering number of Triple-A releases, includingMetaphor: ReFantazio,Silent Hill 2 RemakeandFinal Fantasy 7: Rebirth, was the sequel to a game that originally released back in 2011. Indeed,Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2is the follow-up to the original Space Marine that launched on thePS3andXbox 360. At launch, it received favorable reviews from critics,including our own Ben Sledge, who awarded it a 3.5/5. It also wore its 2000s inspiration on its sleeve,something the developers said was intentional....

Most of the NPCs inKingdom Come: Deliverance 2are intelligent. Whether it is guards spotting you in places you shouldn’t be or shopkeepers finding you creeping around in their houses, people don’t take anything lightly. To show you what the NPCs around you think of you at any time, there is a hare or rabbit behavour indicator system in the game. You’ll regularly see a coloured rabbit in the top centre of the screen, and they all mean something different....

Quick Links Monster Hunter has always had a fair share of secrets in its many regions, the kind you need to be really paying attention to if you want to notice. That’s no different inMonster Hunter Wilds, with some previously standard features becoming somewhat more obscure. With the absence of Gathering quests, Wyvern Eggs seem like quite the oddity. In previous games, the delivery of Wyvern Eggs was a standard affair, though this time around they are next to impossible to even find, let alone know what you’re meant to do with them....

InDead By Daylight, blinding and stunning the Killer is the key to ensuring your and your team’s survival. A well-timed stun can mean the difference between a clean getaway, a smooth save, or ending up on a hook yourself. It’s not as simple as pressing buttons and wiggling your mouse. The Killer never stays in one place, so you need sharp timing, smart positioning, and a good read on their next move....

Civilization 7doesn’t let you customize anything. You can’t rename your cities, you can’t fiddle with the options for game speed, map generation, leader AI, or pretty much anything else in the barebones settings menu. While I know mods will eventually fix this sort of thing - they always have in the past - it’s shocking that a game that’s been in development for so long would launch without these series-staple features....

There are many ingredients you need to find inHello Kitty Island Adventureto make yummy treats. Apples are used with flour in the kitchen to make Apple Pie, which you can use to complete quests. You can also gift it to characters to bond with them well. However, there are only a few limited sources to get apples in the game. You can collect them off the trees in the Spooky Swamp....

Quick Links You love fishing, right? Of course you do. Fishing is a wonderful activity, and that’s the reason it is such a prevalent minigame within so many video games, andMonster Hunter Wildsis no exception to that. Indeed, you can fish aplenty here, and you will even meet a rather eccentric fisherfellow who shares your angling enthusiasm. Perhaps Kanya even loves fish more than you. It is seemingly her entire life....
