AMD's FSR 3 technology is finally available today on PC with its debut in Square Enix's Forspoken and EA's Immortals of Aveum. While the former game beat the latter to the punch by releasing the update earlier this morning, Immortals of Aveum is currently the only game where users can directly compare FSR 3 with DLSS 3 - the original frame generation technology released around a year ago by NVIDIA.
Immortals of Aveum Review: Warlock Warfare

About two weeks before the release of Immortals of Aveum, EA's new first-person spell-shooter action title, Baldur's Gate III released to rapturous acclaim. Larian Studios' Dungeons & Dragons-based RPG - with its deeply rewarding quests, robust gameplay systems, and its evocative characters and storylines - became a global phenomenon, racking up over 800,000 concurrent players on steam. A strong contender for Game of the Year, Baldur's Gate III offers meaningful choices, compelling narratives, and hundreds of hours of immersive experience in the Forgotten Realms.
Two weeks after Immortals released, Bethesda's sprawling space-RPG, Starfield, landed with a promise of a thousand planets. The studio's first new IP in 25 years, Starfield lets you fulfil your space fantasy, bringing endless exploration, tight gunplay, and spaceship building to the table. Fly anywhere, do anything; as studio director Todd Howard put it, it's essentially Skyrim in space. Perhaps the biggest Xbox exclusive in a decade, Starfield - like Baldur's Gate - demands hundreds of hours to savour all of its delights. It promises a stirring journey into mysteries of space and time, exploring themes of existence and being, and the profoundness of human endeavour — the quest to know more.
Between these two colossal, industry-defining games is Immortals of Aveum with its modest ambitions — it lets you shoot colourful magic spells from your fingers, pew-pew-style. That's about it. Immortals is not interested in offering you a compelling narrative, or deep gameplay systems, or total immersion into its world, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. This is because it does offer in plenty that one thing that video games should be — fun. Immortals is nowhere close to being as big in scope and ambition as the two games that bookended its release. It does not require you to commit dozens of hours; in fact, it does not require you to commit at all. Unlike its two peers, it certainly won't be contending for Game of the Year. But, Immortals' straightforward storyline, its earnest and frankly goofy pastiche of modern superhero films, and its tight, 25-hour campaign deliver exactly what the game promises — nothing more, nothing less.
Baldur's Gate 3 Review: A Critically Successful Dice Roll Into the Colossal Forgotten Realms
Dr. Strange meets Call of Duty
Immortals of Aveum, the first game from Ascendant Studios, published under the EA Originals banner, is a first-person shooter without the guns. Here, you shoot colour-coded magic spells, sort of what you'd expect if Dr. Strange met Call of Duty. For visual comparison, the action looks a lot like 2022's Ghostwire Tokyo, but plays out a little differently. Between Forspoken and Hogwarts Legacy,

Infinity Strash: DRAGON QUEST The Adventure of Dai Review
is a video game based on an anime based on a video game series, which means it borrows elements from both, but feels more like the former than the latter. That being said, knowing a lot about the franchise or the anime (or manga) isn't really necessary for this experience. Featuring some of the iconic monsters and spells from, is more of an anime recap than a game, which is a bit unfortunate considering just how excellent the actual gameplay is.

Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty Review In Progress
Cyberpunk 2077 and I have a troubled history. From its disappointing launch state on console and PC back during its earliest days, I’ve had a hard time really getting into the sprawling RPG, as bugs, glitches and overall performance issues held everything back.

"Electrifying, Emotional, And Full Of Twists" - Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty Review
may be the last of V's story, but it's a step towards a brighter future for CD Projekt Red. The expansion is both the first and last for the futuristic RPG, which is set in Mike Pondsmith's universe — and after the game's less-than-ideal launch in late 2020, its announcement sowed both seeds of curiosity and doubt. Even though it's not quite flawless in its execution, delivers its promise with an excellent story, engrossing gameplay, and quality-of-life improvements that make the game it always should've been.

Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty Review
Remember how many dildos were originally in Cyberpunk 2077? You couldn’t loot a corner in Night City without picking one up, to the point where CD Projekt Red actually had to patch a number of them out. Lootable dildos weren’t necessarily a problem on their own, but their abundance was a good example of how Cyberpunk’s grand story could occasionally clash with the cheap shock humor found around it. Phantom Liberty aims to right that dildo misalignment, and after some soul-searching, has seemingly found what kind of Cyberpunk story it wants to tell, and nails it. Balancing the punk-rock verve of Mike Pondsmith’s tabletop RPG with an exquisitely crafted spy story and best-in-class visuals, Phantom Liberty is Cyberpunk 2077 at its best.
