Whether you’re an experienced player after extensive beta play or starting new on launch day, you’re going to be doing a lot of running around in Amazon Studios’ new MMO New World. The first thing you’ll notice after the initial few hours, at least compared to other popular MMOs, is the absence of mounts. Currently, there are no mounts available in New World, and it’s not clear when and how they will be added.

Apex Legends’ season 12 is bringing back Hammerpoint Rounds—this time compatible with the RE-45—and adding the new Kinetic Feeder hop-up, which reloads the Triple Take and the Peacekeeper when sliding and boosts their charge rate. In addition, Shatter Caps will also see some tweaks. The Hammerpoint Rounds hop-up was in Apex from season two to nine and boosted damage against unshielded targets when equipped on the Mozambique or P2020. It will return in season 12, and this time, it will also fit the RE-45.

If you’re looking for a PC, you can either go for a pre-built system or build your own. Both options have their pros and cons and appeal to different users. Building a PC is sometimes cheaper than buying the equivalent prebuilt alternative, and the user chooses every part of the build. On the other hand, pre-built PCs don’t require any technical ability, and they are pre-tested and come with warranties. 

Streaming is one of the most accessible activities in the gaming world. After all, you just need a stable internet connection and a gaming PC powerful enough to provide a smooth gaming experience to broadcast your gameplay. While your personality as a streamer and the game you’re playing will be important when it comes to retaining the attention of your audience, so will your stream’s quality. If you frequently drop frames while streaming, your viewers may find it difficult to keep up with your stream.

The early meta for Pokémon Sword and Shield is already shaping up and a handful of Pokémon stand above the rest in terms of their potential on the competitive stage.  Unfortunately for fans of the Galar Region, several of the best options early on seem to be returning powerhouses from previous games. But that doesn’t mean some new faces haven’t skyrocketed to the top of early team-building tests.  Out of all of the Pokémon available for competitive play, these are the 10 that stick out as key catches and can anchor a team on the competitive ladder.

The next season of Apex Legends, titled Saviors, will be released on May 10. While the new legend Newcastle and major changes to Storm Point will be the headlining features of the update, Apex’s 13th season also contains a plethora of changes to weapon balance. LMGs are seeing nerfs across the board, while other less-beloved options in the floor loot are receiving some small quality-of-life improvements. With the Spitfire returning to the loot pool from its tenure in the care package and headshot damage getting altered heavily, there are some potentially major shake-ups to the meta that players will want to get on top of before the season goes live.

Nvidia’s latest GeForce Game Ready Drivers include three added Nvidia Freestyle GeForce Experience filters, including Screen Space Ray Traced Global Illuminations, a filter that can improve lighting in games. Nvidia Freestyle has been available for a few years, amassing a variety of in-game filters ready to be applied at a moment’s notice. Filters are easily enabled and have minimal in-game performance impact (opposed to other settings), making them a great way to view your favorite title underneath an alternative lens.

Respawn Entertainment tries its best to introduce at least one event per season of Apex Legends to keep things fresh. Things get a lot hastier during the holiday seasons, however, since the developer complements the season’s greetings with events as well. This turns into another in-game extravaganza for players to look forward to—and next up is Halloween. With the Aftermarket event coming to an end, Apex players will only have two days of downtime since the 2020 Fight or Fright Halloween event is scheduled to go live on Oct.

Destiny 2: The Witch Queen is finally almost here. After being delayed for several months due to the pandemic, the expansion where Savathûn has stolen the Light is arriving and it’s up to Guardians everywhere to gear up and take her down. Exotic armor is a crucial part of any Guardian’s build, whether it be for taking down the Hive goddess of cunning, finishing Grandmaster Nightfalls, or chugging energy drinks and taking part in sweaty Crucible PvP.
