Looking for more essentials? Best PC games Best free PC games Best RPG games Best VR games Best strategy games Best multiplayer games We’ve concentrated on VR games that run on multiple platforms when compiling this list, though you will find a handful of Oculus exclusives among our top picks. We’ve also concentrating on looking at official releases rather than user-made hacks, as well as experiences that have been designed at least in part with VR in mind....

So come and join us for another instalment of our BB Boys Road Trip, and if you need a refresher of just how far we’ve come, here’s Part I and Part II to catch up on.

“We planned to move the game’s release before and plan to announce it with Mytona in a 10-minute gameplay video, and then you all know what happened,” the brothers told IGN. “So to be on the safe side, to ensure there are no more transfers, we, along with the publisher chose November 10. That is a safe date, given the trademark dispute.” They also added: “We understand that some players, not seeing the whole picture, might have doubts about the game....

Happily, judging by the sizable first chapter of the game (currently available to play for free on Steam until the game’s release on September 22nd), it’s clear that Square Enix and their development partners at Lancarse have a lot of smart decisions here. With its focus on individual hero characters instead of nameless military units, mixed in with the magical pizazz and flashy summons of its Final Fantasy games, The DioField Chronicle could just be the Fire Emblem-shaped hole PC players have been looking for....

As for that coveted Game of the Year trophy, this year’s lineup is—wow is it just me or is this pretty light on PC games? The nominees for the year are Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Doom Eternal, Final Fantasy VII Remake, Ghost Of Tsushima, Hades, and The Last Of Us Part 2. Sure enough, that’s three current PS4 exclusives and a Nintendo Switch game. Only two of the six—Hades and Doom Eternal—are currently available on PC....

But what’s this? It is The Iron Oath, a pretty turn-based tactical RPG that promises dynamic campaigns and a world your little mercenary company can change over time as they go around it killing people. I suppose that’d do something one way or the other, right? I missed this somehow when it first popped up. But Curious Panda Games have promised a new trailer, and a demo next week. It’s a common mistake to add overblown EPIC MUSIC to a trailer that ends up sorta selling it short....

GamesMaster had seven series on Channel 4 from 1992 to 1998, hosted by Dominik Diamond aside from a brief blast of Dexter “Baby Face” Fletcher. Episodes had reviews and tips as well as game-playing challenges with celebrities. It was good fun, one of the better video game TV shows we’ve had, playful and cheeky. I wasn’t much interested in the resurrection but I’m definitely curious with Rab hosting. He’s a “creative consultant” on the revival too....

The Pedestrian popped out last night, and it oozes promise. It’s definitely one of those ‘if only I’d thought of that’ ideas. Every puzzle starts with you stepping back and figuring out how to stitch the level together, though the transitions between areas are so smooth I’m loath to call them levels. You flit between paper, roadsigns and digital screens, not knowing where you’ll pop up next. The doors into each panel have little semicircular nodes next to them, which can be connected to their corresponding halves....

The Crysis Remasters boast shiny features including high-res textures, ray tracing, and—hang on, let me get this right—sparse voxel octree global illumination. Our 2011 Crysis 2 review called the original release “a moderately magnificent game”, while our 2013 Crysis 3 review declared that “an infinitely better singleplayer shooter than any COD since Modern Warfare 4”. Been a few years since then, with quite a few great superpower shooters. Graham said the other day that these two aren’t worth getting at all....

Remember, if anyone asks, I’ve got emails of us talking about this internally going back weeks. Why, I’ve been working on that title art alone for several days, at least! CUTEST VERMIN: The Cycle: Frontier Ollie: Life on Fortuna III - the setting of excellent extraction shooter The Cycle: Frontier - is a very harsh time. Almost everything that runs, crawls, and skitters across its vibrant landscapes wants to kill you....

You can choose whether your Sim becomes a werewolf by being bitten or if they were born into a whole fluffy family of the toothy blighters. They’ll also be able to become part of a pack of werewolves, and hook up with potential mates at somewhere appropriately called ‘Howling Point’. You can play as a lone wolf too. Your Sim can choose to accept or fight against being a werewolf, and they’ll be affected by the phases of the moon with the returning lunar cycle system....

RE:BIND have published Skeleton’s take on the Final Fantasy 7 remake. And there are few things I care less about than the Final Fantasy 7 remake, which is why you should listen to me when I say Skeleton’s piece is worth reading anyway. PC Gamer have republished Luke Winkie’s interview with the designers of Facade, a game about convincing two AIs not to break up. It’s an intriguing and apparently surprisingly robust concept....

Get a 1TB Integral M-Series NVMe SSD for £57 (was £63) Compared to other NVMe drives - especially the fastest PCIe 4.0 models - this Integral drive isn’t going to be winning any performance awards. However, the massive speed advantage provided by modern NAND, memory controllers and the NVMe interface means it still manages to be up to four times faster than a comparable SATA drive, which makes it a much better choice for handling large files - eg 4K videos and the like....

Get the XPG S70 2TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD for $269.99 with $30 gift card The XPG S70 is one of only a handful of PCIe 4.0 drives to be capable of these speeds, thanks to its use of InnoGrit’s latest flash memory controller. It’s rare to see a non-Phison option, especially outside of Samsung and WD drives which use their own in-house controllers, but InnoGrit are a trusted (albeit smaller) name and the performance delivered is definitely impressive....

What do you get for your money? The G915 TKL Lightspeed Wireless is the smaller sibling of the Logitech G915 Lightspeed Wireless, a keyboard that Katharine declared “wireless keyboard perfection.” The big difference is that the G915 TKL Lightspeed Wireless lacks a numpad, the TKL bit being short for “tenkeyless.” And not, to my eternal disappointment, “trousers, kinda large.” It uses Logitech’s Lightspeed wireless, uhh, tech, meaning it has a teensy 1 millisecond response time to minimise lag....

“With nearly a decade of development on the Total War: Warhammer trilogy behind us it feels surreal to see its culminating chapter so close to release,” said Creative Assembly’s Rob Bartholomew in the announcement. “While it’s tempting to rush to the finish line as it comes into view, we have made the decision to give it a little more time by moving the launch of Total War: Warhammer III from 2021 to early 2022....

Kislev Roster guide While the standard of infantry, cavalry and archers might hold true in traditional Total War, Warhammer 3 likes to make things a bit complicated with the addition of, say, giant elemental ice bears....

Not only will you often want to cook particular dishes to prepare for certain fights or journeys, but there are often also quest missions which require you to obtain a certain food item.
