The controversial anti-piracy software is causing negative feedback for Total War: Warhammer III on Steam.

Elden Ring global release schedule

22-Feb-2022, 11:30 am Fyra Frost News

Get ready for the launch and find out when you will be able to pre-load Elden Ring and start playing the game in your region.

Elden Ring is one of the most anticipated games of 2022, and its upcoming release is around the corner. As it happened with other games created by FromSoftware, the Japanese studio has been rather vague about many things in the game. Still, an open-world game with an exciting and mysterious storyline, amazing graphics, and new gameplay features born from the collaboration between Hidetaka Miyazaki and George R. R. Martin is appealing enough to catch the attention of players all over...

Bethesda has revealed this year's roadmap for Fallout 76 and it's full of new activities and events, starting with an alien invasion.

Surviving in the post-apocalyptic wasteland of Fallout 76 is not an easy thing. Mutants, radiation, scarcity of resources, and plenty of other players willing to kill anyone just for a new pair of boots are common impediments that forbid you from enjoying a tranquil life. The counterpart is that you have plenty of opportunities of embarking on thrilling adventures, solo or accompanied by other friends. If you are lucky, you might even find some visitors from outer space, or that's...

Skull and Bones changes into multiplayer experience

21-Feb-2022, 2:00 pm Fyra Frost News

Ubisoft confirms that their pirate-themed game will be nothing similar than what it was originally intended.

It's been a long while since we heard about Skull & Bones for the first time. Ubisoft has not revealed much about the upcoming pirate-themed game in the past, and its development has been an enigma for a long while. In fact, the developer completely changed the game last year, and instead of being a primarily single-player experience focused on exploration and adventure, Skull & Bones is now meant to follow a "live service" business model....

19-Feb-2022, 3:44 pm Sacha Loric News

We are formally introduced to the Prophet, who can do holy magic, and the Wretch, who can't do much at all.

Elden Ring is coming in just a few days, and so it’s time to round off the last of the starting classes. This time, we formally meet the Prophet, who was introduced before. We also finally meet the worst possible class in the whole game, the class that director Hidetaka Miyazaki refers to as “the naked one,” the most painful way to play Elden Ring—the Wretch.
