Jude Bellingham may not have sealed the perfect season by lifting the Euro 2024 trophy with England, but he does at least have the small consolation of becoming EA FC’s (or FIFA’s) youngest-ever cover star at the age of just 21. EA FC 25 will be released on September 27th, 2024, or a week early on September 20th if you purchase early access. But what’s new this time around?
For annual sports releases, offering an enticing suite of tweaks and additions is a must to keep things feeling fresh, and with a new 5v5 mode, a completely overhauled approach to tactics, and those all-important Ultimate Team adjustments in the mix, FC 25 has a few tricks up its sleeve. So, without further ado, here are 71 changes that actually make a difference...

Developer Monkeycraft Co. and publisher D3 Publisher have surprise released Yeah! You Want “Those Games,” Right? So Here You Go! Now, Let’s See You Clear Them! 2 for PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.
The micro-game collection arrives almost exactly one year after Monkeycraft’s original, bringing enough new mini-games to fill an app store. The bit is that each game featured in Yeah! You Want “Those Games,” Right? is based on some of the mobile game advertisements you’ve likely seen floating around social media. Players have criticized certain ads for not properly representing the actual gameplay being offered – but that’s where Monkeycraft comes in.
Yeah! You Want “Those Games,” Right? 2 costs $9.99 and...
The developers of FC 25 have welcomed genuine competition in the soccer video game space amid rumors of a new FIFA game entering the market.
EA Sports ditched the FIFA license in 2022, launching its new FC series with FC 24 in 2023. But the FIFA series is set to return with a different developer and partner, with 2K heavily rumored to have taken on the license by partnering with football’s governing body, FIFA.
In May, FIFA president Gianni Infantino confirmed a new FIFA game was in the works, saying: “We will develop a new e-game, because (the) football simulation game is called FIFA. For hundreds of millions of children around the world, when they play (a) football simulation game, they play FIFA. It cannot be named something else...
Like a Dragon (previously Yakuza) developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio (RGG) is revealing its next game at Tokyo Game Show, which takes place September 26 to September 29, 2024.
As reported by VGC, RGG announced during a YouTube stream that its mysterious next game will be unveiled fully in just a couple of months.
The studio has already confirmed the next game won't be Yakuza Kiwami 3, however, meaning it won't be a remake of the third game following on from Yakuza Kiwami and Yakuza Kiwami 2 which arrived in 2016 and 2017 respectively. Series director Masayoshi Yokoyama said he'll make that game one day, but it won't be the next title.
While RGG also develops the Super Monkey Ball series alongside a handful of other more random games...
The First Descendant only launched at the end of June but one player has already unlocked every Ultimate Descendant currently available in the game without paying money.
Nexon’s free-to-play co-op focused looter shooter has enjoyed enormous popularity with over 10 million players in just 10 days. But it has been heavily criticized for its ultra aggressive monetization, which includes the cost of Ultimate versions of its playable characters, called Descendants.
The grind associated with unlocking Ultimate Descendants without paying money is immense, as players face some extreme drop rates for essential items, but that hasn’t stopped players from giving it a good go. One player, however, has taken the grind to extreme levels, putting...

Warning: This article contains spoilers for a late game Elden Ring boss.
An enterprising Elden Ring player has perfectly recreated 80s hero He-Man in the game, and now you can too by equipping gear introduced by the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, including a version of the Power Sword that allows you to re-enact the character's iconic transformation.
“They put this chest piece and sword in the game, and I did what I had to,” wrote Reddit user SethKlock, who shared a video of the new He-Man build alongside details of the gear needed to recreate it. First up you’ll need to grab the Iron Rivet Armor after defeating Red Bear in the Northern Nameless Mausoleum located to the northwest of Castle Ensis in the Land of Shadow, and equipping a...
Hello Games has revealed the next update for No Man’s Sky: Worlds Part 1.
This huge update for the now eight year old space game is its biggest since 2020’s Origins update and focuses on much-requested variety and major visual enhancements to the universe. These include fancy new water effects and even what looks like gameplay inspired by Helldivers 2’s community driven Galactic War.
In a new developer video, below, Hello Games’ development chief Sean Murray made a rare appearance to discuss the Worlds Part 1 update. Murray said the tech Hello Games has developed for its upcoming new game, Light No Fire, is now being incorporated into No Man’s Sky.
“Six months ago we announced Light No Fire,” Murray said. “It's this crazy ambitious...
Larian Studios may finally be adding everyone's favorite bard Alfira to the Baldur's Gate 3 party upon the release of Patch 7 in September 2024.
Though not wholly confirmed, the patch notes released July 16 said Larian "may have also let a certain bard now join the party as a controllable character if there’s an empty slot, temporarily, of course."
Fans have been calling upon the studio to make Alfira a recruitable companion since Baldur's Gate 3's launch in August 2023 but this tease has reignited the chatter. "OMG, Alfira!?," asked TitanMK0 on Reddit.
A tiefling bard encountered during Act 1 of Baldur's Gate 3, Alfira tasks the party with helping her compose a song. She may be briefly involved later in the story, including in one...

Silent Hill creator and director of upcoming horror title Slitterhead Keiichiro Toyama has commented on Microsoft's shock closure of Tango Gameworks in May 2024.
Speaking to VGC, Toyama used the example of Elden Ring developer FromSoftware as a "successful" studio as, while Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice are different games, they all feature the studio's signature gameplay loop.
In contrast, Tango Gameworks, which was founded in 2010 by horror game visionary and Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami, jumped around genres, going from a similarly third-person survival horror franchise The Evil Within to rhythm-based action game Hi-Fi Rush, via the spooky but not strictly horror, first-person, open-world action...
The developer of Once Human has published a long list of player accounts which exploited a bug or cheated over the course of the game’s first week of availability.
Once Human is a free-to-play multiplayer open world survival game from Starry Studio, a developer owned by Chinese games company NetEase. It launched on PC on July 9 and quickly found an audience, with a huge peak concurrent player count of 231,668 on Steam. It’s proven so popular that the servers have struggled to cope.
But it’s already marred by cheaters and some players who exploited a bug to gain advantage, even after Starry Studio issued a warning to its community. This bug, which let players access and occupy Engagement Zones in restricted areas, was since fixed...

We already knew that Behaviour Interactive tapped Until Dawn and The Quarry developer Supermassive Games to create a new narrative-centric horror game set in the Dead by Daylight universe. And we don't have to wait too long for it, as Behaviour has confirmed The Casting of Frank Stone comes out on September 3, 2024.
In a new blog post detailing the new playable character Lara Croft and the highly-requested 2v8 mode, Behaviour quietly revealed the release date for its upcoming Dead by Daylight spinoff.

The trailer is mostly a spin on classic horror flicks from yesteryear and provides the names of the playable characters.
As previously revealed, The...
Dead by Daylight fans who have been asking Behaviour Interactive for years for a 2v8 mode will be happy to know that this highly requested feature will be available starting next week.
Behaviour Interactive confirmed that the 2v8 game mode will be available to players beginning July 25. As previously confirmed during the Dead by Daylight 8th anniversary stream, 2v8 is a fast-paced, chaotic mode in which two killers team up to hunt down and kill eight survivors. The mode will be available for a limited time, with players having until August 8 to try it.
Dead by Daylight's 2v8 mode will be available on five classic maps. To accommodate the increase in players, the maps have been expanded, and generators "have also been doubled,"...

Warning! This article contains spoilers for Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC bosses.
An Elden Ring modder has found a novel way to make the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC easier, by allowing players to unleash a cast of major bosses to fight by their side, setting up the potential for some dramatic boss-on-boss showdowns.
There’s no denying that the Shadow of the Erdtree poses a significant challenge even to experienced Souls veterans, with FromSoftware president Hidetaka Miyazaki himself noting that the DLC “pushed the envelope in terms of what we think can be withstood by the player.”
Thankfully, the new DLC Summon Bosses Mod from NexusMod’s user FlippantTunic22 makes this challenge a whole lot easier, by replacing a number of...

Microsoft has announced the Xbox Game Pass July 2024 Wave 2 lineup, which unusually only takes us up to July 19. This leaves plenty of time for a subsequent announcement of the long-awaited addition of games from Activision's back catalog, including Call of Duty titles.
It’s the first Game Pass lineup announced after Microsoft’s controversial price hike and tier change for its subscription service. Analysts recently told IGN the Game Pass price hike was “inevitable,” and warned more increases, more tiers, and even ads may be on the way.
As for the lineup for this rest of July, out today, July 16 is Magical Delicacy (Cloud, Console, and PC), available on day one with Game Pass. This wholesome pixel art platformer lets players cook...
Baldur’s Gate 3 developer Larian has finally detailed what fans can expect from the long-awaited Patch 7, and teased that it is not the game’s final update.
In a post on the Baldur’s Gate 3 Steam page, Larian outlined everything coming up in Patch 7, due out in September. Highlights include split-screen updates, brand new cinematics for evil endings, plenty of bug fixes, and official modding tools.
In now trademark Larian fashion, it’s had fun with the patch notes, below. Here’s a snippet: “In the words of Michelangelo, no great work of art is ever finished, and so too is our approach to the art of snogging.”
Baldur's Gate 3 is Larian's enormously successful Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game that blew critics and players alike...
An Elden Ring poster signed by game director and FromSoftware president Hidetaka Miyazaki is currently going for $15,000 at auction.
YouTuber CDawgVA has listed the poster for charity on auction website Tiltify and, while bids started at just $1, it's now selling for a whopping $15,000 despite the auction not concluding until July 19, 2024.
The money will go towards the Immune Deficiency Foundation, a charity which offers resources, education, and support for those with primary immunodeficiencies, a group of more than 450 rare, chronic conditions where a part of the body’s immune system is missing or does not function correctly.
The "fair market value" for the poster, which beyond Miyazaki's signature features perhaps the base...
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 developer Treyarch has confirmed the multiplayer portion of the game ditches ‘streak looping’ — and in doing so has sparked a debate among fans.
In Treyarch’s Black Ops games, scorestreaks are obtained by gaining points from, for example, killing other players. Obtain enough points and you can call in a scorestreak. More effective scorestreaks cost more points. For example, in Black Ops Cold War, the Combat Bow cost 500 points. The Chopper Gunner, however, costs 8,000 points.
In Black Ops Cold War, Treyarch’s last Black Ops game, score carries over even after you die. But in the inaugural episode of the COD POD, Treyarch’s associate director of design Matt Scronce confirmed this system was ditched for Black...
In an time when innovative games are coming out constantly, it’s exciting that I’ve truly never played anything quite like Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess. It’s an otherworldly mix of action-strategy and tower defense set in a mystical feudal Japan. But while that unique setup may be what grabs your attention, Kunitsu-Gami’s execution on those ideas is also engaging, fun, and downright fascinating.
Kunitsu-Gami’s story is told quietly yet effectively, using essentially no dialogue. Mt. Kafuku has been corrupted by defilement and the “Seethe,” a representation of demons, spirits, and yokai. Your goal as Soh, the guardian of the maiden Yoshiro, is to lead her safely down a path on the mountain so she may perform her duty, rescuing...
This year's Amazon Prime Day sale has no shortage of gaming PC deals. We've listed out every good deal we could find on prebuilt gaming PCs from well-known brands like ASUS, MSI, CyberPowerPC, Skytech, IBUYPOWER, and more. For most PC gamers, buying a prebuilt gaming rig is far more attractive than it used to be. Years ago, it was inarguably cheaper to build your own gaming PC than to buy a boutique gaming rig. That's not the case anymore. The gaming PCs listed here are already built and packaged and will ship out quickly. They use off-the-shelf components so it should be easier to swap and upgrade components compared to buying from an OEM manufacturer like Dell or HP.

Ever since The First Descendant launched at the end of June it’s had an away from keyboard (AFK) problem. Now, developer Nexon has asked its player base to please stop going AFK and please refrain from AFK farming.
Nexon’s free-to-play co-op focused looter shooter has enjoyed enormous popularity, with over 10 million players in just 10 days. But out on the battlefield there’s an increasingly troublesome issue that’s driving some players up the wall: AFK farming.
AFK farming isn't a problem unique to The First Descendant, but in this game it’s particularly bad. The idea is players join a mission with others and simply twiddle their thumbs while everyone else does the hard work, then reap the rewards such as experience at the end...
