Elden Ring is the latest action-RPG from Bandai Namco and FromSoftware, and it mixes up the Souls formula by introducing a large open-world and bringing back quite a few mechanics we’ve seen in past games. Among those are the weapon arts, which appear in this game as collectible Ashes of War. Here’s how to get the Golden Vow Ash of War in Elden Ring. Getting the Golden Vow Ash of War in Elden Ring There are two ways to get Golden Vow; the first is by obtaining the Golden Halberd which comes with it, and the second is by killing a specific enemy in Limgrave to get the Ash of War itself, which can be affixed to any melee armament....

Developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco, Elden Ring is a brand new action-RPG that’s just been released for PC and consoles. The game features a huge open-world for players to explore, and if you choose to venture off the beaten path, you’ll find that there are plenty of dungeons and optional bosses to take on. Here’s how to get to Raya Lucaria Crystal Tunnel in Elden Ring.

Patches - a recurring merchant in FromSoftware games - makes his return in Elden Ring. You can find Patches early on in your adventure and, by ‘winning’ the Patches boss fight, he’ll become a vendor. The items he sells can be very useful on your quest, especially in the game’s opening hours, and some may even help you defeat a certain boss… Beyond that, you can also find Patches in a number of other locations - in what you could consider an on-going Patches questline, which will give you an end reward....

A new update has become available for the Epic Games Store. And despite the fact it’s on Halloween, there are more treats than tricks as far as user convenience is concerned. The company detailed what’s included with its October feature update on its official blog, including a new storefront, but wishlists and OpenCritic reviews are on the way. Here’s what’s new with the Epic Games Store update First off, there’s a new storefront....

According to the official Xbox website, Bethesda’s upcoming titles Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus and The Evil Within 2 will both support 4K on the Xbox One X. The updated listing on each game’s page states that both titles will run in 4K resolution with High Dynamic Range (HDR) visuals. What’s not clear, however, is what form of 4K Wolfenstein II and Evil Within 2 will support. Will each game run in a full 4K resolution, or will they simply be an up-scaled checkerboard, or even a dynamic resolution version of 4K?...

Ted Bundy was a good looking, articulate and well educated guy. He was also a brutal murderer who killed at least 30 women, started a media circus around his own case that’s still impactful to this day and redefined what we think of as a serial killer. And it’s very much the first of these two statements that Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile focuses on. It’s a bold and at times fascinating angle for a dramatisation of real life events that doesn’t actually quite work, but takes the viewer on an interesting journey nonetheless....

EA and Codemasters have lifted the lid on EA Sports F1 22 as previously promised, which will be taking off from the start line this July.

Naturally, players will get to experience the 2022 F1 calendar, which will also include the Miami Grand Prix for the first time....

Rumours are circulating that a sequel to 2010 Fallout spin-off Fallout: New Vegas could be on the cards at Microsoft. Regular rumour monger Jeff Grubb spoke on the latest episode of his show Grubbsnax, as transcribed by Video Games Chronicle. Grubb claimed that talks on reviving the side-series had started since Xbox bought Fallout license holders Bethesda last year. It was a move that saw Bethesda now under the same roof as the studio that worked on the first game, Obsidian....

There are several perks that you can unlock while playing as Pagan Min. Perhaps the biggest downside is that, assuming you’ve played Vaas: Insanity, too many of the unlockables are similar. It leads to a situation where your rogue-lite romp lacks a lot of variety. In any case, here’s our Far Cry 6 Pagan: Control DLC guide to help you with the best Mirror skills and traits that you can obtain....

Final Fantasy 14 is Square Enix’s second MMORPG entry in its veteran JRPG series. After the original title was shut down following overwhelmingly negative reception to its launch in 2010, the game was rebooted as Final Fantasy 14: A Realm Reborn three years later, which did far better with both critics and fans. In an industry where games live or die on their player count and engagement, this continuing success is made clear in the title’s stable popularity over the last six years....

Shipment and digital sales of Final Fantasy XV have exceeded six million units, Square Enix has announced.

The figure will come in a standard version priced at $129.99 and a Square Enix Store-exclusive Digital Plus Edition priced at $159....

If you are facing this error on Mac, here are a couple of things that have a high chance of fixing the problem. How to Fix Origin Blank White Screen on Mac? First and foremost, check whether your drivers are up to date....

This article contains spoilers for Doctor Who, including books and audioplays. You know the description ‘Doctor-ish’, pertaining to the title character in the long-running BBC TV series Doctor Who? It feels slightly nebulous, defined circularly by virtue of literally anything they do potentially matching this description. Yet, I bet we all carry a vague notion of it, a gut feeling that certain acts and ways are Doctor-ish. Rather than try to define this then find examples to support the definition, I’m going to list examples of behaviour from each incarnation that I regard as Doctor-ish then leave everyone to come up with their own conclusions/reiterate their existing opinions....

The Chainsaw Man anime is a tour de force of great animation and compelling characters, and none so emulate the latter as Denji does. An embodiment of struggle whose life before joining the Public Safety Devil Hunters was a nightmare, his upward arc toward a normal life is something to be admired. And yet, a question is probably lingering in your mind as you watch his efforts: Does Denji get to feel boobs in Chainsaw Man, thereby achieving his greatest ambition?...

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot pleased fans in more than one way by providing an impressively accurate retelling of a familar story combined with enjoyable mechanics and being one of the longest Dragon Ball Z games at around 100 hours of gameplay. On flaw the game has which isn’t too noticeable during a first playthrough, though, is that the difficulty curve of the game seems to be backward. In other words, the game starts off difficult and seems to get easier as the player progresses....

Get your fusion dance and yelling voice ready. Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot‘s latest trailer showcases events from the iconic anime’s last chapter: the Majin Buu saga. This is about the 75th opportunity that DBZ fans will have to experience the story Akira Toriyama laid down 25 years ago.

Role-playing games are often about playing out the hero fantasy. We all need to escape from the pressures of life sometimes, and slaying vicious villains to save innocents is a great way to do that. The good news is that it turns out you can help save real lives by entering dungeons and fighting dragons. That’s what the folks at Level Eater Adventures are trying to do. They run charity Dungeons & Dragons events where several tables all work towards the same quest, and raise funds for cancer programs in the process....
