Elden Ring has numerous incantations alongside the plethora of weapons that will be useful to defeat higher-tier enemies. Since the powers of the bosses increase once you progress, you will have to level up your powers as well. One such incantation that many don’t know about yet is the Giantsflame Take Thee. This one hurls a massive ball of raging fire according to the game. Now that your interest is piqued, you would want to know the location where you can find the Giantsflame Take Thee in Elden Ring....

Google has announced its plans to enter the VR market with its rather funky looking Daydream View, made with soft breathable fabric inspired by the clothes we wear. Launching in November at only £69, the Daydream View will utlise a range of new Android 7.0 phones, including the newly announced Google Pixel and Pixel XL. Comfortable. Inspired by the clothes we enjoy wearing, the headset is made with soft, breathable fabric....

I could attempt to describe what you are about to see, but could not possibly do it justice. Check out the video below: All joking aside, the amount of time and effort on display here is astounding, and anyone who has taken on a personal passion-project knows just how difficult it can be to produce an end result this awesome. Computer programming is as alien to me as the Covenant, so I’m forced to enjoy Heavies and Spies dancing to “Everybody Dance Now” on its surface....

UPDATE 25/3/2022: We’ve now spent some time looking at the Xbox Series S version of Grand Theft Auto 5 and it’s the least impressive rendition of the new ‘remaster’. It’s absolutely fine to put out a Series S rendition that runs at a lower resolution than the Series X version - that’s exactly how titles were meant to scale down to the junior Xbox, after all - but the cutbacks and drawbacks are more pronounced to the point where it’s that much harder to justify this as a paid upgrade....

Plenty of video games have incredible casts of characters that rival those in literature, film, and television. In many cases, however, they are unrelatable. In the Call of Duty franchise, for instance, most people playing cannot relate to the experience of war, but we find them intriguing and badass, and they make playing these games more entertaining. Similarly, the cast of a series like Mass Effect has the same problem: we can’t relate to people trying to save the galaxy from sentient alien ships and fighting AI’s....

While the main story in Grand Theft Auto V is incredibly entertaining, with three different playable characters all having set missions that need to be completed individually and as a group, the side missions in the game are just as fun. Labeled “Strangers and Freaks,” each character has their own side missions, and these create some of the best stories in the entire game. While some of these missions are just quick and easy, others are tons of fun and take a long while to complete due to the detail....

The public beta for Gwent: The Witcher Card Game has gone live! You too can now play the card game that everyone loved in The Witcher 3! Just go to www.playgwent.com to play for free on PC. Console users can download the Gwent client directly from the Xbox or PlayStation store. CD Projekt Red has also released a cinematic trailer, which is pretty funny, featuring Witcher protagonist Geralt playing a game against Ciri, and getting rudely interrupted....

It’s safe to say that the latest iteration of Call of Duty has strayed quite a bit from the standard CoD formula, as Infinity Ward made changes that didn’t make sense. Multiplayer suffered from said changes, as the overall pace felt straight out of a page of Escape from Tarkov’s textbook. The previous issue is compounded by the fact that many questionable design choices plague this title, such as the Perk system rework, the time-to-kill insanely high, and the lack of content, making this a tough pill to swallow....

343 has laid out its plans for Halo Infinite’s upcoming Winter Update, which is due to go live on 8th November. This free update will add the long-awaited campaign network co-op mode, as well as the official launch of the game’s Forge beta (in case you missed it, some have already got their hands on it and have been creating some truly impressive reimaginings of games such as Ocarina of Time and PT within)....

When gamers discuss the best villains of the franchise, it is almost inevitable that Borderlands 2’s Handsome Jack gets brought up, as in many ways, this villain helped define the franchise. And in the most recent Borderlands 3 DLC, Mad Moxxi’s Heist of the Handsome Jackpot, his legacy is on full display, leaving many to wonder if that was it for the iconic villain. Before moving forward, it’s worth highlighting that this article will contain MAJOR STORY SPOILERS for BL3’s first major story DLC....

The original Mafia turns 20 years old today, and publisher 2K Games is celebrating. Not only is the 2002 open-world game going free on Steam this week, but now we know another one is in the works. To coincide with the giveaway announcement, developer Hangar 13 has confirmed that a new Mafia game is in the works. However, we won’t hear about it for quite some time. “I’m happy to confirm we’ve started work on an all-new Mafia project!...

HBO Max has released a behind the scene look into The Last of Us TV series, featuring iconic reimagined scenes within the video game and commentary from various crew members about the riveting storyline. The beginning of the video showcases a series of clips of the filming process, including a crucial moment between Ellie Williams (Bella Ramsey) and Riley Abel (Storm Reid) from the DLC, The Last of Us: Left Behind....

Hearthstone players will have enjoyed the Kobolds & Catacombs expansion announcement at BlizzCon and today Blizzard has announced the release date. For weeks Blizzard has been teasing new cards that will appear in this latest update and it will finally release on 7 December.

Anyone who pre-orders and grabs 50 Packs for the princely sum of £44....

The big three manufacturers often give back to the consumer with some free gifts. More recently this has come in the form of a few months of Game Pass with a GPU or in the case of AMD, anyone who buys a new Radeon card from May 10th (just as the new ones have hit), will be able to redeem a coupon later down the line to acquire some games....

There are 27 different suits to find and unlock in Spider-Man on PS4, and here’s how to go about getting your hands on all of them. One of the most anticipated games of 2018 has finally arrived. Spider-Man was released on Friday and the gaming world has been abuzz about how great it is. Honestly, we’ve yet to hear anything negative about it at all, as expected. Just a few days into its existence and players are already discovering just how detailed and in-depth the game is....

Elden Ring week is finally here! Are there any other video game things happening also? Who knows! Elden Ring! And if you’re as giddy about the whole thing as I am, you might like to know exactly when you’ll be able to start playing based on your time zone and platform of choice - which is information Bandai Namco has now made available in the form of an infographic. Elden Ring officially releases this Friday, 25th February, in Europe, but, depending on your location and platform, you might just get to play it a little earlier....

While we already knew Fortnite’s Fracture finale event was already coming to an end Chapter 3 as a whole, today, more information has been given about when players can participate. As with every season/chapter finale, Fracture will be a one-time event. You have to show up on the day it is held at the proper time, or you’ll never be able to participate or experience it for yourself ever again....

High on Life may be a comedy game, but its PC version is actually more demanding than you might be imagining based on that alone. The game has a 49 GB install, so it’s not exactly a tiny download. Instead, this is a fairly graphics-intensive game with large areas and a massive amount of unique assets. Performance for me was a bit all over the place, however. I played the game at 1440p using a 3090 and 2600x....
