Asus ROG Will Make a New Performance VR Headset for Meta

If you love the power of gaming PCs and the portability of the Nintendo Switch, you should think about getting a handheld gaming PC like the Asus ROG Ally. If you’re interested, it’s currently on sale from Walmart with an $87 discount that pulls its price down to $400 from $487. It’s a pretty popular device so we expect this offer to attract a lot of attention, which means it’s probably not going to last long. If you want to get this handheld gaming PC for this cheap, you should proceed with the transaction immediately.

Over the last couple of years, ASUS has really stepped up its game when it comes to its gaming keyboards. Since last year, it has released two veritable bangers: the ROG Azoth and the ROG Strix Scope II 96. Both dramatically exceeded expectations, expertly walking the line between enthusiast keyboards and gaming keyboards. The ROG Falchion RX is a different beast, embracing a compact form factor and a low-profile design. But despite its differences, it also embraces the same enthusiasts and excellent performance that made those other keyboards so appealing. At $170, it's definitely on the expensive side and won’t be for everyone, but if you’re a fan of compact keys or are already in the ROG ecosystem, it’s worth a closer look. 

Sony will add a new feature to PS5 later this year, allowing users to invite others to a multiplayer game by generating a shareable link on the console or via the PlayStation App. This link can then be shared on social media or via direct message, allowing AFK, offline, or even players you aren't friends with (yet) to secure a spot.

Publisher Oculus Studios and Marvel’s Iron Man VR developer Camouflaj have announced Batman: Arkham Shadow for Quest 3. It will launch in late 2024.

As excited as some may be for new ship-building options or city maps in Starfield, there’s the ever-present question of when official mod support will go live. Director Todd Howard confirmed it would be this year, previously stating the sci-fi RPG would be a “modder’s paradise.” As it turns out, some new information will be dropping soon.

The buzz around the ASUS ROG Ally has been quite a whirlwind ever since its grand reveal last year. Packing impressive specs into a compact 7-inch form factor, the ROG Ally basically redefined handheld gaming while giving some serious competition to the Steam Deck. And guess what? Best Buy just sweetened the pot by putting up a whopping $100 price cut on the console.

A new major order in Helldivers 2 has just been announced, and it forces players to make a choice between liberating Choohe or Penta from the Automaton threat. This announcement follows the previous one, which garnered a lot of attention in the Helldivers 2 community, and fans discerned it to be the new Helldivers 2 stratagems teaser.

Survios has announced Alien: Rogue Incursion, a single-player horror action game for PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 3. It will launch this holiday.

Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno has provided an update on Silent Hill 2 in an IR/conference following the group’s consolidated annual report for 2023 (via MauroNL on Twitter). He noted that the team is “in the final stages of work” on the remake, and “We expect that a release date and platforms on which the game will appear will be revealed soon.”

While VR may not be as big as was predicted back in the early 2000s when the original Oculus Go was released, there is still a considerable market these days, and some great VR games like Half-Life: Alyx that you can have fun with. Of course, VR headsets remain expensive, and while options like the Meta Quest don’t necessarily require a high-end gaming PC, they can still be a bit pricey for those who just want to put a foot in the hobby. Luckily, there are some good deals you can take advantage of, even on some of the best VR headsets, so be sure to check out all your options below.

A new character in 4.7 may make Neuvillette completely broken, according to a set of leaks about the upcoming patch. The popular action RPG is just entering Version 4.6, a massive update where it will introduce the highly anticipated Arlecchino as a playable character. The Fatui Harbinger known as the Knave had already appeared as an NPC during the Fontaine storyline, but had not yet become a playable unit. Of course, the new character in 4.6 is not the only piece of content coming with the new patch, as there is a lot more planned.

Saber Interactive’s MudRunner game has carved out a solid niche for itself, but if you just can’t get enough of it, even with the recently released Expeditions: A MudRunner Game– well, there’s more on the way, albeit on new platforms.
