Disenchantment Part 4 launched on Netflix on February 9th. Despite an exceptional voice cast, outstanding animation and in-depth worldbuilding, this fantasy cartoon cannot escape the shadow of Matt Groening’s Futurama. Part 3 left all our characters in rough spots. Newly-crowned Queen Tiabeanie (Abbi Jacobson) was kidnapped and taken to hell by her evil mother, Dagmar (Sharon Horgan). The demon Luci (Eric Andre) died and went to heaven. King Zog (John DiMaggio) was sent to an insane asylum....

This feature is highly beneficial to all end-users, especially those who reside in an area where there is no constant power supply.

Apex Legends is arguably more popular than it ever has been. Recently, Apex Legends set another new player record on Steam thanks to the success Season 8 has turned out to be for the two-year old battle royale title. However, not everyone is getting back into Apex Legends despite it having a renaissance of sorts. Popular streamer and content creator Dr Disrespect recently explained why he hasn’t jumped back into Apex Legends after swearing off playing the game some time ago, even though he said he actually enjoys it now....

A new Dragon Age Inquisition Unreal Engine 5 fan concept video has been released, showing a remake of The Storm Coast within Epic’s new game engine. Created by artist ‘Leo Torres’, this technical fan showcase is a re-creation of the rainy coastal region in Ferelden. It features Unreal Engine 5’s new tech, including Lumen, Nanite, and Temporal Super Resolution. “This was a more technically difficult environment to build, mostly because it had so much heavy FX”, the artist writes....

Noir is one of many genres wherein it’s difficult to determine an exact definition. The closest one can get to a definition is finding the common traits between films that are agreed to be noirs. With noir being one of those “know-it-when-you-see-it” genres, it is often left up to debate as to whether or not a given film can be classified as noir. Nicolas Winding Refn’s Drive starring Ryan Gosling doesn’t appear to fit the common understandings of noir, with its bold color schemes and synthesizer-based music, but it is actually an evolution of the genre that establishes the modern noir....

The Dune: Spice Wars is here, and it has a lot more going on than the usual RTS game mechanics that the fans are used to. The latest release from the franchise takes more than just base-building and military brute to conquer the planet of Arakkis. Economics and Politics are deciding factors in this game for power and supremacy, and the four factions in the game have their own ways of using them....

When creating a character in a tabletop RPG like Dungeons & Dragons, it’s essential to know what role that character will play in the party. Part of that is to do with class choice, and tying into that is what exactly a character does — and doesn’t do — skillfully. That’s where ability scores come in. These stats govern almost everything in the game, from combat to magic to everyday interactions with the party and NPCs....

It has been six years since developer Techland released Dying Light, a survival horror game that combines a zombie-infested open-world with parkour gameplay. Several days ago, Techland released much-awaited updates on Dying Light 2, which is now confirmed to release on December 7, 2021. However, it appears that the studio isn’t finished supporting Dying Light just yet. Several days ago, Techland revealed another version of the game called Dying Light: Platinum Edition....

Dying Light set a precedent for zombie games, as the genre was becoming stale and many games (aside from the juggernaut that is Left 4 Dead) didn’t really bring anything new to the genre. Becoming one of the best zombie games to date, Dying Light brought new life to an otherwise tired genre. Adding the parkour mechanics that borrowed elements from games like Mirror’s Edge and having the day and night cycle affect gameplay made Dying Light stand out....

Nowadays, almost all social media platforms track your location with or without your consent. You may want to stop them by changing your location to keep your privacy with you. Keeping this in view, you might be wondering, “How to fake location on Snapchat?” In this guide, we’ll take a closer look at how you can continue using your favorite social media app without revealing your location. Does the New Snapchat Update Show Location?...

Elden Ring is undoubtedly designed to appeal to Dark Souls lovers. From its hulking, gruesome monsters to the importance of skillful parrying and movement in combat, it’s a Soulslike game through and through. Elden Ring is bound to pose a significant challenge to most players, but of course, that’s what Dark Souls fans are there for. The Soulslike genre is all about testing one’s mettle against overwhelming challenges. However, Elden Ring isn’t just any Soulslike game....

While out exploring The Lands Between, Elden Ring players can come across plenty of characters that will assist them on their journey. One such character is Ranni, who has one of the most memorable questlines in all of Elden Ring. Players first meet Ranni the Witch when she offers them the spirit calling bell at the start of Elden Ring, which is a useful item that allows them to use summon ashes in combat....

The world of Elden Ring is filled with many fearsome enemies that relentlessly attack players. While it is more approachable than other games by From Software, it is not exactly easier, and many players are reporting a significant difficulty spike in the final third of Elden Ring. One particular late-game main story boss is being labeled as one of the most challenging fights designed by FromSoftware. Anyone who plays Elden Ring encounters, and probably dies multiple times to, the Tree Sentinel boss....

Eldest Souls is a new game coming towards the end of July, developed by Fallen Flag Studio. The game is a pixel art boss rush inspired by games the caliber of Dark Souls, Demon’s Souls, and more within the Soulslike family. Game Rant spoke to Francesco Barsotti and Jonathan Costantini over email about Eldest Souls, which makes up the first portion of this interview; the second part is the transcript from the hands-on gameplay demo with the developers....

Epic Games has announced they’re expanding beyond games into the realm of music with the acquisition of Bandcamp. For those unfamiliar, Bandcamp is a music-hosting site and marketplace popular amongst indie musicians. For their part, Bandcamp says they won’t be changing their tune (pun intended), but plan to expand internationally and improve their tech with Epic’s backing. Epic, on the other hand, is a bit more cagey about what they’re getting out of the Bandcamp acquisition, simply saying this is part of their goal to “support creators across all media....

Video game developer Epic Games, the creative force behind Fortnite and the Unreal Engine, announced the purchase of Bandcamp, the online music store and community geared around independent musicians. The purchase of a music company may seem like an odd acquisition for Epic, primarily known as a gaming company, but according to Ethan Diamond, co-founder, and CEO of Bandcamp, the two companies “share a vision of building the most open, artist-friendly ecosystem in the world, and together we’ll be able to create even more opportunities for artists to be compensated fairly for their work....

Fighting games and their development is a bit of a touchy subject sometimes. Usually, these games’ development squares on the post-release DLC or balance changes centered on fixing problematic characters, like a certain gun-toting zoner in Guilty Gear Strive… Today, however, isn’t about balance. Moreover, it’s about input detection and a partnership with Epic Games and Sony. Is there anyone reading this that doesn’t know about Unreal Engine’s existence at this point?...

Alan Wake has been making something of a comeback in recent years. The game was referenced a handful of times in 2019’s Control, and then the Bright Falls Incident was prominently featured in the game’s 2020 AWE DLC expansion. Now that Wake is back in Alan Wake Remastered, fans are playing through the game and keeping an eye open for any references to Control. Unfortunately for anyone looking for new content connecting the two even further in the remaster, there isn’t a whole lot of added material....
