Podcast: The fall of Kong, a new N64, and Mario Wonder is here

Next week marks the third year since PS5 launched and we wanted to take this opportunity to thank the more than 40 million players who’ve joined our global PS5 community. In these first three years, PlayStation Studios and third-party developers have introduced more than 2,500 PS5 games for players to enjoy, including fan-favorite titles in recent months like Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Baldur’s Gate 3, and Final Fantasy XVI.

Hexworks has outlined its free content roadmap for Lords of the Fallen. Along with the usual stability, performance, balancing, co-op and PvP improvements occurring weekly, it will deliver new armor sets, spells, and more.

Lords of the Fallen has received a new patch that features over 100 enhancements, fixes, and tweaks.

‘Swamp Pipe Crawl’ is one of the harder levels in Super Mario Wonder’s first World as it introduces new mechanics and hides its collectables especially well. Like all the levels up until the point, however, it’s an absolute blast to play and collecting everything is more fun than it is a chore. 

Super Mario Wonder seemingly never stops throwing interesting ideas at you because ‘Rolla Koopa Derby’ is yet another belter of a level. As the name implies, there are Koopa’s, they are on rollerskates, and it’s kinda awesome.

The fourth level in Super Mario Wonder’s First World introduces some new concepts – this time, you are dealing with block-destroying Bulrushes who are quick to anger. If you want to get all the Collectibles in this level, you are going to have to use them to your advantage. 

‘Here Comes The Hoppo’s is the fifth level in Super Mario Wonder’s ‘World 1’. Like every level up until this point, it adds a funky new mechanic to mess around with. This time, you get to meet the hilariously rotund, Hoppos.

Super Mario Wonder is jam-packed with things to find. Something the game doesn’t tell you, however, is that the game is not against the idea of hiding collectables – even from the checklist. Piranha Plants On Parade is the first level that reveals this deceptive truth, and you are going to have to come back later if you want to get everything.
