😡 ARC Raiders: the third Expedition from Embark Studios has the player base furious, apparently only NO-LIFERS will be able to clear it.

Dev change: they removed the stash/currency trade-in, all 5 skill points are now granted for dealing damage by any means during a five-day window. The Expedition opens on April 28, the same day as the Riven Tides update. It's the final 2026 roadmap drop: a new map and a giant "Queen" boss.

🤯 Charlie Cox finally jumped into Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, but didn't make it to the end, he only poked around the starting area and met a few characters.

The actor who voiced one of the roles spent time with the intro: learned basic mechanics, chatted with NPCs and realized the game isn't like the classics he grew up on. The narrative focus and slow, piecemeal story delivery, where you assemble the plot yourself, surprised...

Los geht’s um 16.30 Uhr am Safe-Hub-Sportplatz in der Ruheplatzstraße – von dort aus führt eine kuratierte Tour in fünf Stationen rund um den Leo.

Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, founder of Rebel Wolves and game director of Witcher 3, slammed the profit-first mindset that stifles creativity.

He singled out Crimson Desert and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 as a FRESH breath in AAA, projects that refuse to ape safe formulas. His The Blood of Dawnwalker aims to recapture the 90s sense of discovery: a 14th-century historical-fantasy drenched in vampiric style and bold gameplay bets...
