Mortal Kombat 1 continues the long series tradition of being violent and grotesque with its over-the-top ways to decimate your opponents. There is one thing, however, that is more disgusting than any Fatality the game has to offer: Taunting. While some fighting game fans would like to believe that there should be a sense of respect between opponents, the roots of the genre lie in not the heart of battle but in the trenches of the saltiest of waters. The ability to taunt one’s opponent mid-match is one of the quickest ways to turn a simple exhibition into a rage-fueled encounter, and thankfully, Mortal Kombat 1 decided that it needed that ability and I couldn’t be more happy about it. Players that want to truly get in their opponents’ heads with a few distasteful gestures, allow me to explain how it’s done. This guide will provide players with an explanation of how to Taunt in Mortal Kombat 1.

In Mortal Kombat 1, there are many systems and mechanics that go beyond just learning combo strings and performing Fatalities. Whether it be Mortal Kombat or any other fighting game, you won’t be able to get to that next level without a strong defense. Since knowing how to avoid damage is just as important, if not more important than dealing damage, Mortal Kombat 1 has a deep and robust number of systems that purely revolve around defense and getting out of trouble. One of the most important defensive tools is the Combo Breaker which will allow you to get out of your opponent’s attacks. This is a mechanic that players will need to know how to use if they want to limit the amount of damage that they take during a fight. This guide will provide an explanation of how to do a Combo Breaker and what it is used for in Mortal Kombat 1.

The Super moves are a key component of any fighting game and Mortal Kombat 1 is no different. Returning from Mortal Kombat 11 are the Fatal Blows, a vicious move that sees your characters unleash pure violence onto the opposition. These moves play a critical role in the game and could be the difference between a clutch victory and a deflating defeat. Allow me to explain how these moves work and how to perform them. This guide will explain to players how to do a Fatal Blow X-Ray move in Mortal Kombat 1.

Like any fighting game, Mortal Kombat 1 has an expansive list of characters to play as. With this being a new start for the long-running franchise as a timeline has been made, the roster is full of familiar characters that all have small tweaks and changes from past incarnations. Players who want to jump into the game will want an understanding of who they have the chance to enter battle with. This guide will provide a full list of the playable character roster in Mortal Kombat 1.

Mortal Kombat 1is the latest entry in the 30-year-old fighting game franchise and brings back the violence and blood that the series is synonymous with. After taking control of the Hourglass at the end of the Aftermath DLC story in Mortal Kombat 11, Fire Lord Lui Kang has created a new era, one that saw peace between the realms and a better future for many of those who suffered in the previous timeline. When an unknown figure starts to meddle with things and pushes certain characters back toward their villainous ways, Lui Kang’s vision of peace is put into jeopardy. Whether you are playing the game’s expansive single player offerings or climbing the ladder to become the best fighter online, there are a lot of Achievements/Trophies that you will be able to unlock along the way. It has begun! This article provides players with a fully comprehensive list of all of the Achievements and Trophies in Mortal Kombat 1.

Exploring new locations in Starfield is equal parts intoxicating and rewarding, however, taking time to visit old haunts has its merits too. The game starts on Vectera, and if you are willing to invest some time into the Main Quest, you will quickly find yourself back there on the hunt for your comrade, Barret.

Starfield has a seemingly endless array of side quests for you to experience, however, engaging with the main quest isn’t something you should avoid. Similar to the likes of Skyrim, a lot of funky things start happening once you get to dabbling along the beaten path, and ‘Into The Unknown’ is the first quest to really mix things up.

Exploring the vast stellar scenes of Starfield is a rush like no other. Every second you spend aboard your ship or planetside has the potential to lead you down a rabbit hole of adventure, questing, and intrigue. You never know when you’ll be asked for help, and sometimes, this can lead to entire storylines unfurling before your eyes.

The ‘Red Tape’ quest line in Starfield is one of the most interesting, despite the general premise being rather bland.

Rook Meets King is where it all starts to get moving, and it’s when all the pieces fall into place for an awesome pirate-based ride.

As the many fronts of the conflict in Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon see battles rage between the many different factions, you end up fighting on all sides as new contracts come in. After assassinating V.VII Swinburne in Mission 17: Eliminate V.VII, the Rubicon Liberation Front made their move against the Arquebus Group at the Wall. During this battle, however, the PCA overwhelmed both sides and took the location for themselves. The Balam Industries sees this as a great chance to swoop in and take the entire for themselves and you are going to be their weapon to do just that. This guide will provide a walkthrough of Mission 20: Eliminate The Enforcement Squads for Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon.

Starfield is jam-packed with things to do and factions to join. Turns out everyone wants what you are offering, and sometimes, that includes the UC SysDef, the branch of the military dedicated to fighting pirates. There are a lot of ways to get involved with these guys, but the easiest is to simply join the Vanguard and complete the Grunt Work quest. 

Depending on what you are doing in Starfield, it can take hours to make any progress on the main campaign. Who can blame you though? The side content is rather excellent, and being distracted is all part of the Bethesda experience we all know and love. When you are finally ready though, Constellation needs your help.

Handler Walter is one of the only characters in Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon that you can “trust” or at the very least is someone you can trust more than corporations. While many of your jobs come from companies and freedom fighters, there is a different tone when he comes to you with a job from himself. Mission 19: Survey the Uninhabited Floating City is one of these missions. Unlocked, after completing Mission 18: Tunnel Sabotage, the briefing of this level sees Walter come to you with a personal request. In the Floating City of Xylem, there are secrets about the Coral but the ECM fog covering the city makes surveying and searching the area nearly impossible. Having already lost a survey drone due to the fog, Walter tells you to go into Xylem and deactivate the ECM fog generators. This guide will provide a walkthrough of Mission 19: Survey the Uninhabited Floating City for Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon.

Once you have joined the Vanguard in Starfield, you will be given a probationary assignment from Commander Tuala. It turns out a new settlement on Tau Ceti II is having some communication trouble. Your mission is simple – bring a Comms Array to the settlement and make sure everything is okay. 

As Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon‘s story continues to unfold, the power of Coral becomes more and more apparent as you interact with it more. The first level that puts the power of Coral right in your face outside of the near-death experience found at the end of Chapter 1 is Mission 18: Tunnel Sabotage, which becomes available alongside Mission 16: Attack the Refueling Base and Mission 17: Eliminate V.VII after completing Mission 15: Steal the Survey Data. Going deep underground to perform a routine objective quickly becomes a race to stay alive. This guide will provide a walkthrough of Mission 18: Tunnel Sabotage for Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon.

There are a bunch of factions in Starfield, and all of them are worth dabbling in. This can lead to all manner of interesting quests, interactions, and even alternate paths through seemingly unrelated quests. Being in a faction is always a good thing and one of the earliest you can sign up to is the UC Vanguard. 

Many quests in Starfield can be found simply by walking around. Hushed whispers and overheard conversations often act as leads to new activities, and these activities are almost always worth doing. Whilst on New Atlantis you will hear rumblings about trees and a man called Kelton.

While being a good mercenary for the many corporations found throughout Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon, there are a few missions that see you offering your services to the Rubicon Libration Front as they attempt to defend their planet from those who would use its Coral for their own gain. Mission 17: Eliminate V.VII, unlocked after completing Mission 15: Steal the Survey Data alongside Mission 16: Attack the Refueling Base, is one of these missions. Ayre comes to you with a request from the RLF. After taking the Wall from them back in Mission 8: Operation Wallclimber, they now want your help to prepare their plan to retake the key foothold. Your job isn’t to take the Wall itself but to soften the defenses. This is done by assassinating the Vesper pilot stationed here: V.VII Swinburne. This is the first mission that actually gives you a choice during it that changes how the level unfolds, so allow me to explain how all of this works. This guide will provide a walkthrough of Mission 17: Eliminate V.VII for Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon.

Chapter 3 of Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon has upped the stakes as all the factions really start to ramp up their plans. The Balam Corporations, the Arquebus Group, the Planetary Closure Administration, and the Rubicon Liberation Front have found themselves in the Central Ice Fields as the battle for Coral and control of Rubicon. Meanwhile, you are found in the middle, taking contract work for each and every one of them. After completing Mission 15: Steal the Survey Data and seeing the PCA fleet arrive, your first real mission in this war across the snow begins with Mission 16: Attack the Refueling Base. This guide will provide a walkthrough of Mission 16: Attack the Refueling Base for Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon.
