The news comes from the official Cyberpunk 2077 Twitter account, which has revealed the date and start time for Night City Wire episode 2, as well as select details of what fans can expect. Check out the tweet below. “Join us on Monday, August 10 at 6PM CEST, at Twitch for episode 2 of Night City Wire,” the tweet reads. “This time we’ll share details about lifepaths, show you the types of weapons you will be using in the game, and discuss Refused’s transformation into Samurai....

Nintendo has announced a new Nintendo Switch Lite color, called Coral. It’s pink! The color also keeps with the theme of the other Switch Lites, with its pastel coloring that’s not too bright. For those that haven’t jumped on the Switch Lite train yet, you’ll now have another color of the system to pick from! The Coral Nintendo Switch Lite will release on April 3 and costs $199.99. It also seems like the Coral Switch Lites are not affected by the possible shortages from the coronavirus outbreak, so it’s unlikely the release will be delayed!...

The Nintendo Switch’s latest firmware update has arrived. Version 9.2.0 is now available everywhere, though it doesn’t bring any exciting new features. The official page on Nintendo’s support site revealed the update’s single patch note, which is surprisingly all about that stability. “General system stability improvements to enhance the user’s experience,” it reads. That’s sadly all there is to it, which is disappointing for those hoping Nintendo would drop a big surprise to celebrate the console’s third anniversary....

According to Nikkei, the company had originally planned to sell 25.5 million units for the fiscal year which ends on March 31, instead, but it will fall short of that, as it will only be able to produce 24 million units. Nikkei states that Nintendo originally planned to produce 30 million Switch units, but the shortages of semiconductors and other electronic parts that emerged around springtime have caused Nintendo to revise its production targets due to the lack of supply....

Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt Red was once certain the game would not be pushed back again. But that was in September, when the action RPG had a November release date. Of course, Cyberpunk 2077 ended up getting one more delay anyway, but CD Projekt is now fairly certain that this will be the one. As part of a look back at the developer/publisher’s third quarter, CDPR mentioned the game’s December 10 release date multiple times throughout the document....

After you’ve completed a dance battle, you have a chance to be interrupted by one of the characters you’ve used in combat. Once the surprise guest appears, you have an invaluable chance to increase your intimacy level with that one of your friends. The intimacy boosts you can gain with surprise guests are significantly higher than what you’ll find playing through the visual novel sections of Obey Me, so it’s well worth making the most of your opportunity....

From December 8 to 13, the companies pledged 5% from sales of Ori and the Will of the Wisps on Switch would benefit the Rainforest Trust, with iam8bit pledging $25,000 to the charity. This week, iam8bit announced $58,000 was raised during that time, enough to protect 29,000 acres of rainforest habitat - a space roughly double the size of Manhattan. “As the publishers of the Ori series on Nintendo Switch, we could not be more thrilled by the outcome of this drive," said iam8bit....

Prior to the launch of Outriders, I was particularly impressed with how clearly People Can Fly communicated what players can expect from the game’s different facets. The World Tier system was properly detailed, and the studio demonstrated why it was a good choice for the game. Expeditions, another major component of Outriders, was likewise presented as a proper standalone endgame activity with new content, and not simply an excuse to play the whole game again....

With Outriders, to try and show potential players how they’re eschewing the microtransaction-laden tricks of newer titles in similar genres, People Can Fly is falling back on an older concept: a demo. “We’re quite confident in the game, we think it’s awesome - so we don’t have to hide it before launch.” Bartosz Kmita, game director on Outriders, says. “We know that it’s for a specific audience and that not everyone will like it, but we think it’s a great product - so why not release a demo and show people?...

While it was already revealed during the Overwatch League Grand Finals that a new tank, Ramattra, will be added to the game, players also have new mythological skins, a map, and various returning holiday events to try out. Revealed via an all-new gameplay trailer, the latest battle pass for Overwatch 2 is diving into all things mythology, with the next Mythic skin to arrive being Zeus Junker Queen. There are plenty of other skins to consider grinding out the battle pass for or splashing the cash on too, such as Cyclops Roadhog, Medusa Widowmaker, Minotaur Reinhardt, and more....

Speaking with IGN, Kinetic Games said it has dropped the idea of adding PvP to Early Access title Phasmophobia. According to developer Dknighterto, there are no plans at the moment to add another game mode, as it would “turn the game into something completely different.” “I want the game to remain 4 players vs. 1 AI, and balance the game, then add new features around that style of gameplay,” said Dknighterto....

The discovery was originally shared on Reddit, where a user who goes by the handle of Tomlacko posted their findings. “Everyone should be familiar with this world,” wrote Tomlacko. “It’s the one that always appeared on Minecraft’s main-menu, blurred and slowly rotating around.” “It first appeared in 2011 for Minecraft Beta 1.8 and stayed for many years, until it was only recently replaced in 1.13 and every version after that,” they added....

The end game, of course, is for Sony to kick up enough sand that the regulators won’t let Microsoft’s Activision Blizzard acquisition deal go through. Microsoft, on the other hand, wants to make it look like it needs the massive publisher under its belt in order to survive against Sony and Nintendo. The result? Everyone looks a bit dumb, and the back and forth is bringing a lot other companies into the mix, too....

Logically, I know that having the right weapon or item isn’t a cast iron guarantee of success; there’s every chance that twenty-foot tall boss will boot you into orbit before you can so much as unsheathe your sword. But FromSoftware’s titles have, game by game, turned me into a major hoarder – and Elden Ring casually dialled things up to eleven. The rot started with the original Demon’s Souls and its very first boss, Phalanx; or, at least, the first boss that wasn’t specifically designed to insta-kill you....

Rescheduled from March, April Pokemon Go Community Day will feature Abra, the Psi Pokemon. During the event, Abra will be appearing more frequently in the wild and you can possibly encounter a Shiny version. If you evolve Abra to Alakazam during the event or up to two hours past, the Pokemon will learn the exclusive Fighting-type Fast Attack Counter. To help make it easier to participate in Community Day at home, the event will last longer: it starts at 11am and ends at 5pm local time....

Upon release, players of the adventure game will be able to experience new features, such as Seasons, the final island of Archipelago, and new weekly quests. Temtem is an MMO creature-collection game where you will seek adventure in the Airborne Archipelago alongside your Temtem squad. You can catch every Temtem, battle other tamers, customize your house, join a friend’s adventure or explore the online world. It features a story campaign that takes you across six islands as you strive to become a Temtem tamer while also fighting against the evil Clan Belsoto....

How to get Mystery Gift Pokemon in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl There are a lot of simple and exciting rewards on offer. However, right at the start of your journey through Sinnoh, you might not be able to find where to key in your Pokemon Mystery Gift codes. In older games, the Mystery Gift function used to appear on the start menu when you booted up Pokemon right from the start of your adventure....

You might have noticed the emphasis on sandwiches and picnics in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and you’ll find that this is how we’re going to breeding our Pokemon this time around, too. Not only do we get to breed Pokemon and cook up a tasty treat, but you’ll get a little EXP for each picnic you host, too. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet: How to breed Pokemon Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Breeding is easier than in previous generations and can be done pretty much anywhere you want, anytime you like....

After delving into the Great Crater of Paldea and checking out what Pokemon the area has to offer, you’ll eventually meet with Professor Sada (if playing Scarlet), or Professor Turo (if playing Violet). Except, something isn’t quite right with either of them, and it doesn’t take long before it’s unearthed that these aren’t the professors whatsoever, and AI hosts for their memories instead. This ends up with a grand, ultimate battle against either AI Sada or AI Turo as you complete the final questline, ‘The Way Home’....

Speaking to DidYouKnowGaming, Wolpaw spoke about some behind-the-scenes information about both Portal games about characters like Wheatley and Cave Johnson, and cut content from Portal 2. Perhaps most interestingly for fans of the puzzle-shooter, is the fact that Wolpaw spoke about Portal 3, which to be clear doesn’t currently exist in any material form. “Jay [Pinkerton] and I have an idea that we think is pretty awesome for what would happen, generally speaking,” Wolpaw told DidYouKnowGaming (Pinkerton being the co-writer of Portal 2)....
