Undying Glory Awaits in Trials

Hogwarts Legacy is the best Harry Potter game to ever land on consoles and PC, and the title’s open-world setting is one to be reckoned with. You’ll spend hours exploring the fantastical universe, completing an array of inspired side quests and puzzles, all while evolving your character. The Merlin Trials is a particular set of challenges you’ll want to take on, as you’ll earn additional inventory slots when you beat one. And if you’ve ever played an open-world RPG, you’ll know just how vital these extra digital cubbies can be.

Blizzard is currently rolling out a hotfix that fixes an issue with temporary buffs not being cleared upon entering the Gauntlet.

The latest New World Forged in Aeternum is out, and the team discusses the narrative and mechanics of Soul Trials, including why they’re not replayable (yet), goals behind them, and answer community questions.

Wordle today: The last few days have been tricky for Wordle players as they've come across challenging words. While the Wordle answer for March 13 was LOCAL, a relatively easy word, the previous two days proved to be difficult. Players came across words such as HEAVE and PESKY which aren't used in everyday conversations. But what about the Wordle challenge today? Players are in luck as a fairly straightforward answer has been provided.  To get it right, all you need to do is figure out the letters, find out their correct positioning and make the Wordle word of the day. If you're struggling with it, then check out hints, clues and answer to Wordle today.

When you reach Costa Del Sol in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, you will quickly realize that Cloud and the crew aren't exactly dressed for a relaxing vacation at the beach. All that leather and black certainly won't be comfortable — and don't get us started on how much sand is going to get in those boots. Before you can even set foot on the sand to relax by the water, Cloud will need to earn some tickets to get more appropriate beachwear. The only way to earn these tickets is to participate in some team minigames, including the Card Carnival on the docks. This is a twist on the Queen's Blood card game you may have been playing throughout your adventure up until now (or perhaps you've been completely ignoring it). Either way, this game is not your typical match, with specific challenges that are more like puzzles than proper games. They can be rather tricky, so we'll help you play your cards right to beat the initial set of Card Carnival trials and earn that swimsuit.

Garena Free Fire MAX Redeem Codes for March 12: In the last few weeks, several events have been introduced in Garena Free Fire MAX. These events offer players an exciting opportunity to get their hands on exclusive in-game items. While these items are not likely to give any boost to your character's stats, they can help you customize the look with weapon skins and clothing items, and make you stand out from the rest of Garena Free Fire MAX players. So, if this is your wish, then check out the details of the latest event in Garena Free Fire MAX called the Parafal Royale.

Red Barrels has opened up about what's next for its deliciously gory cooperative horror, The Outlast Trials.

Given how often I’ve used the weather as an excuse for staying indoors and playing games, it’s fitting that I could take the opportunity with the sun showing itself to spend a little time on outdoorsy tasks. But when darkness falls, it was back to Helldiving into the morass of robot and bug enemies on alien worlds (often with terrible weather), and then enduring the horrors of The Outlast Trials with Tuffcub and Steve.

After the public legal hubbub that surrounded the original The Sinking City, developer Frogwares is back to focusing on expanding the franchise – and it’s announced a sequel for PS5, which is currently slated for release in 2025. The Sinking City 2 is set in 1920s America, when a supernatural flood brings Eldritch-like horrors to the city of Arkham. This is being billed as a brand-new, standalone story, unrelated to the original.

Red Barrels' co-optional horror "therapy" simulator The Outlast Trials leaves early access today. I haven't played an Outlast game since reviewing the second numbered game and having excitable opinions about its portrayal of the moon. I'll be honest, I'd assumed the series had died, but Steam user reviewers seem pretty keen on Trials, which takes the first game's mucky asylum premise and spins it out into a low-key live service game about playing a series of human guinea pigs, trying to escape an experimental brainwashing lab run by the villainous Murkoff Corporation.

Developer Red Barrels has announced that co-op horror game The Outlast Trials is out now on PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, and Xbox One. The game’s full release comes after having spent a little under a year as an early access title. Check out the trailer for the game’s full release below.

Converting a traditionally single player IP into one meant for multiplayer too is a process with just as many hits as there are misses, so developer Red Barrels will be delighted it's landed on the right side of history. With up to three friends along for the ride, The Outlast Trials is a slightly different ballgame to its offline counterparts, but it retains enough horror to appeal to those fans picked up through entries past.
