Larian Studios is working on adding crossplay and a photo mode to Baldur's Gate 3

Veteran RPG developers have weighed in on how Baldur's Gate 3 has (or hasn't) affected how they approach their own games.

Almost a decade after it set crowdfunding records on Kickstarter, and five years after its release, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night’s developers have announced the final free update for the Castlevania: Symphony of the Night successor.

Stellar Blade will get a Boss Challenge mode in a future update.

One of the big complaints about Starfield is how empty its planets are. Walking from objective to objective is often a slog as there's nothing in-between, but there's no way to cut across these distances any faster. That's finally going to change.

While they ponder which developers should face the difficult task of following up one of the most acclaimed games in a long time by making a sequel by Baldur's Gate 3, the makers of Dungeons & Dragons are also putting their own money into making video games themselves. Over a billion dollars of their own money, in fact.

Bandai Namco has spiled the beans on what's next for Tekken 8. Throughout the rest of 2024, players can expect a bunch of free updates, and Lidia has been confirmed as the game's second DLC character. She arrives at some point this summer.

During EVO Japan 2024, Bandai Namco released a new trailer showcasing upcoming updates for Tekken 8. A new balance patch will be available this Spring, but fans can expect several free post-launch updates. Check out the trailer below.

MultiVersus' long-awaited return is just a month away, with developer Player First fine-tuning and offering fans more info about what we can expect upon the game's rerelease. While it's still being a little coy with new characters, a great source of frustration among the community, it has finally given us more details on updated gameplay, and an explanation for the controversial decision to make characters bigger than before.

Genshin Impact could be adding an Auto Chess game mode in the near future, inspired by the board game that Ningguang was developing in one of her Hangout routes. While Genshin Impact has toyed around with alternative gameplay modes through Flagship Events, the introduction of Genius Invokation TCG has given players a permanent way to take a break from the chores of completing daily commissions and instead play a game of cards in the tavern.

Since Larian has confirmed that it is done with the license, some fans have been concerned about the future of the series, but there is an even better choice to work on an expansion to or a potential that could easily outshine Larian. Obsidian has defined itself as the premiere pinch hitter for RPG development. The company’s follow-ups to BioWare’s and surpassed the originals, just as Obsidian did with , a superior game to Bethesda’s by most metrics.

In this post, we're taking a look at all the new «Earthen Dungeon» armor and weapon models in the War Within, presumably from the eight new expansion dungeons. Note that while the weapons come in many colors, the available armor tints are limited--we expect them to increase as the alpha progresses. The cloth set will also have a robe option in the future.

The War Within Alpha adds some elaborate cosmetic models, including Kobold Candle and Fungi helms. Notably there are 3-piece sets (shoulders, tabard, cloak) themed around some major factions in the expansion--check out those Kobold shoulders! Many of the cosmetic helms were also confirmed to be from delves at BlizzCon.
