V Rising is leaving early access on PC soon and bringing lots of new stuff. It’s a game about vampires. They’re also bringing it to PS5. But when exactly is the V Rising PS5 release date? And will it be at the same time as the PC release?

V Rising PS5 Release Date

Unfortunately, the full release of V Rising won’t happen on PlayStation 5 at the same time as on PC. PS5 players will have to wait a bit longer to sink their teeth into the game.

What’s even more disappointing is that we don’t know the exact release date for V Rising on PS5 yet. It could come out a month after the PC release or even in December, but it will be sometime in 2024.

V Rising 1.0 Release Time

The V Rising servers will be turned off from May 6th to May 8th, 2024, so the developers can get everything ready for the big launch.

V Rising 1.0 is out now!

The official V Rising X account shared details about the global launch and when the update will be ready for players in different parts of the world. Players in the PDT region will get it first, starting at 4 AM on May 8th.

Region/Time Zone	Release Time
Los Angeles (PDT)	4:00 AM
Denver (MST)	5:00 AM
Mexico City (CST)	6:00 AM
New York (EDT)	7:00 AM
São Paulo (BRT)	8:00 AM
London (BST)	12:00 PM
Cape Town (SAST)	1:00 PM
Stockholm (CEST)	1:00 PM
Ankara (EEST)	2:00 PM
Abu Dhabi (GST)	3:00 PM
Shenzen (CST)	7:00 PM
Tokyo (JST)	8:00 PM
Sydney (AEST)	9:00 PM
Wellington (NZST)	11:00 PM

If you’re already playing the early access version of the game, you’ll have to start fresh when the 1.0 update arrives to enjoy all the new stuff. But trust me, it’s worth it because there’s a ton of cool content coming with the full launch.

One big change is the addition of different difficulty modes and some scary new enemies to fight. And get this: you can even go toe-to-toe with Dracula himself if you’re brave enough to challenge him for his throne!

On top of that, there are some smaller changes like new cosmetic skins to make your character look cool, tweaks to the combat system to make it even better, and some fancy decorations for your castle.

If you’re into extra stuff, there are some DLC packs available too. Here’s what you can get:

• Dracula’s Relics Pack (Cosmetic items)
• Founder’s Pack: Eldest Bloodline (More cosmetic items)
• Haunted Nights Castle Pack (Decorations for your castle)
• Sinister Evolution Pack (More decorations for your castle)

Does the PS5 Version Offer the Same Features as the PC One?

When the PS5 release date arrives, fans might be happy to hear that it will be the complete 1.0 version of the game. It should include all the content and improvements from the full PC version. However, it’s unclear if it will be the same as the PC version at that point.

The PS5 version may only be at the 1.0 stage and slightly behind the current PC version. But for now, we’ll just have to wait and see. At least we can expect the PS5 version to skip the early access phase.

Ubisoft is known for its shooter games, like Rainbow Six Siege. I’ve been playing their FPS games for a while, even going back to the original Tom Clancy titles on PC.

Remember Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfare or Rainbow Six Vegas? I used to be the top free-for-all player in Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfare!

The fast arena shooter you’ve been waiting for is almost here! XDefiant drops on May 21 on Playstation 5, XBox Series X|S and Ubisoft Connect PC.https://t.co/HHRux4t0Tg pic.twitter.com/Jl9mamFdmf

Now, Ubisoft has a new game called XDefiant, originally called Tom Clancy’s XDefiant. It’s been through alpha and beta tests to see what players think and to make it better. It’s led by Mark Rubin, who used to work on Call of Duty, and it’s supposed to feel like the old Call of Duty games.

Our friend Samuel Tolbert tried an early version and said it was fun but needed more work.

The community agreed. They saw potential but wanted improvements. So, the game got delayed to fix things like the network and party system.

Now, it’s finally coming out. The Preseason starts on May 21st on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. It’ll last six weeks before the regular seasons start.

During the Preseason, you can play as different factions like Echelon and Phantoms, on maps like Arena and Times Square. There are modes like Domination and Escort.

After the Preseason, there will be new content every season, like new weapons, maps, and factions. Year 1 will have four new factions, twelve new weapons, and twelve new maps.

I’m excited about this game. I’ve been waiting for something that feels like the old Call of Duty games. It’s funny because I’m also working on leaks for the next Call of Duty game, and it’s making me nostalgic for the old days. Here’s hoping XDefiant brings back those memories!

Last September, I was in RPG heaven. Baldur’s Gate 3 came out on PS5 just as Starfield arrived, followed by Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty a few weeks later. I felt torn, wanting to play Bethesda’s new space adventure while also loving Larian’s fantasy world.

Plus, I was curious about V’s adventures in Dogtown with Idris Elba. With so many games vying for my attention, I had to make choices, and unfortunately, Starfield fell by the wayside. But now, with news of a big update coming on May 15, I’m thinking of giving it another shot.

#Starfield‘s latest update is now in Steam Beta, and there are a lot of additions:

🌎 Improved surface maps
🖼️ Ship decorations
📊 Difficulty options
💼 Improved inventory UI

…and many more fixes and improvements! https://t.co/rk9dKRzBAX

I didn’t expect to lose interest in Starfield like I did, especially since I’m a huge space fan and have loved games like Oblivion, Skyrim, and Fallout in the past. But as I played Starfield, I got frustrated with the maps and how hard it was to get around.

It got to the point where I stopped playing altogether. However, after hearing about the May update and all the improvements it’s bringing, I’m considering diving back in.

The update addresses some of the main issues I had, like improving the surface and city maps, and even adding a decorative mode for ship interiors, which I love because I’m a big fan of The Sims.

Bethesda released a five-minute video outlining all the changes coming in the update, including a 60fps performance mode on Xbox Series X and new options to adjust difficulty and encumbrance.

But what caught my attention was how they’re improving the maps. Many players, including myself, had trouble navigating cities and finding shops or locations. The update promises to make these improvements, with clearer markers for shops and easier navigation overall.

The surface maps were also a pain to use, with a cluttered UI that made exploration less fun. But the update is changing that too, with a new aesthetic and clearer terrain details.

It looks vastly improved in the snippets shown in the video, and I’m hopeful it will make exploring cities and planets much more enjoyable.

Ship customization was another big draw for me, and I’m excited about the new decorating mode that lets us fully furnish and customize our ship interiors.

Plus, they teased a future feature: a land vehicle. I’ve always wished for something like a Star Wars speeder to make planet-side exploration easier, and I can’t wait to see how it changes the game when it’s added.

Rumors are swirling online about the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. Some say it might have higher power when it’s connected to the TV but much lower power when you’re playing it like a handheld.

In a recent podcast called Broken Silicon, some people talked about what they’ve heard about the new Nintendo console.

They said that NVIDIA, the company helping Nintendo make the Switch 2, wanted it to be really powerful when it’s plugged into the TV, like hitting 4 teraflops. To do this, they might make it run much faster than people expected.

But when you’re playing it as a handheld, they might make it run slow, maybe even slower than 800 megahertz. They’re doing this for a few reasons.

One is to make the battery last longer. Another reason is to keep the console from getting too hot or making too much noise from the fan. This is important because Nintendo wants the Switch 2 to be safe and quiet for kids who might use it.

They also talked about a fancy thing called ray tracing, which makes games look more realistic. They think Nintendo might use this mostly in games they make themselves, while other companies might use a different trick called DLSS to make their games look better.

The new Switch hasn’t been officially announced yet, but some people think it will come out later this year or early next year. So, we might hear more about it soon.

If you’re playing Fallout 4 and you can’t listen to the Mysterious Signal on your pip-boy radio, don’t worry. You can continue the mission. You need to go to the Harbourmaster Hotel, which is marked on your map.

Getting to the hotel might be tough, especially if you’re still new to the game and don’t have strong weapons. But if you save your game often, you can keep trying until you make it.

When you reach the hotel, be careful because it’s now a raider base surrounded by a fence. You’ll have to fight the raiders to get inside. Or, you can try running in and hoping to reach the door before they attack. I threw grenades over the fence to take out some raiders before going in.

When you open the door, you won’t be able to listen to the Mysterious Signal anymore, but you’ll start the next part of the quest: Investigate the New England Technocrat Society.

Inside, you’ll be attacked by ghouls, but once you defeat them, you’ll be ready for the next part of the quest, which involves finding the All Hallows’ Eve password.

Diablo 4’s new season, called Loot Reborn, is coming on May 14th 2024. It’s said to be the game’s biggest update yet.

This season is different from the ones before because it changes many important parts of the game, both for seasonal play and regular play.

Season 4: Loot Reborn is coming May 14th.

⚒️ New Itemization Systems
🔥 Helltide Changes
📜 And much more

One big change is how items work. Blizzard has made it so that getting and using items is simpler. They’ve added new crafting systems called Tempering and Masterworking to make items more customizable.

They’ve also made it so that fewer items drop from monsters, so players spend less time sorting through them and more time-fighting.

In this new season, Diablo 4’s special events called Helltide events will be available all the time, but their difficulty will change depending on the world you’re in.

There’s also a new Threat Level that goes up as you fight enemies, making the game harder and bringing more surprises. When the Threat Level is high enough, players will face a very strong enemy called a Hellborn.

Another new challenge is The Pit, which is for groups of up to four players. After collecting enough Runeshards, players can enter The Pit and fight through many levels to earn valuable materials and rewards.

In Loot Reborn, players can also summon Andariel, a powerful boss, and fight Tormented Echo versions of all bosses if they’re at level 200. This requires Stygian Stones, which players can find in The Pit. There’s also a new quest called Iron Wolves, where players can earn special manuals.

Blizzard’s announcement has more details about all of this, including information about a new battle pass and premium cosmetics. The update will be available on May 14th at 6 pm BST/10 am PT.

The recent update for Fallout 4 on PlayStation Plus should now be available to everyone who plays the game through PlayStation Plus, no matter what level of subscription they have.

This is a change from last week when the update wasn’t accessible to those who got the game through the PS Plus Collection.

We’ve seen some confusion regarding the free Fallout 4 next-gen update for PlayStation Plus Extra members. The Fallout 4 next-gen update will be available to PlayStation Plus Extra members through the PlayStation Game Catalog. Your patience is appreciated while the teams work on…

There was confusion because neither Bethesda nor Sony explained this clearly. Some people thought it was intentional and that those who got Fallout 4 for free through PS Plus wouldn’t get the update.

But Bethesda has confirmed that this isn’t true and that they fixed the issue that was causing the problem.

Surprisingly, this was always the plan. Before, people thought it might never get fixed because other games released through PS Plus didn’t get updates for PS5. Instead, players had to buy the game separately, even though they already had it through PS Plus.

Adding to the confusion, Fallout 4 was part of the PS Plus Collection, which doesn’t exist anymore. This collection of 20 games was for people with PS Plus and a PS5. It could be added to your library at any time, unlike the free monthly games.

It was removed from PS Plus last year, but people who claimed the games before that could keep them as long as they kept paying. Now, those players can also get the PS5 version of Fallout 4.

But for people who got tired of waiting and bought the game, this doesn’t help much. Some are asking for refunds, but they probably won’t get them, especially if they already started playing. At least now they own Fallout 4 and can keep playing it even if they stop paying for PS Plus.

Bandai Namco Entertainment of America just revealed in a new trailer for Tekken 8 that Lidia Sobieska is joining the game as the second DLC character. They also shared a plan for season 1, which includes adding a photo mode, updating the story, and making gameplay adjustments.

The gameplay tweaks are coming in the spring, while the summer will bring the photo mode and a cool new “Seaside Resort” stage. Then, in the fall, the story will get an update. Plus, there’s a hint about a new mode called “Ghost vs Ghost” and an “Online Practice” feature.

Eddy Gordo was the first DLC character, arriving on April 4. He’s been a part of Tekken since Tekken 3. Players who got the Deluxe Edition or Ultimate Edition got to play with him early on April 1.

Tekken 8 came out on January 26 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. It kicked off with 32 characters. By February, it had sold over 2 million copies worldwide.

The story of Tekken 8 picks up about six months after Tekken 7. It’s so epic that the Guinness World Records recognize Tekken for having the longest-running storyline in video game history.

You can play as a bunch of characters, including Jin Kazama, Kazuya Mishima, Nina Williams, and many more. There’s also a Tekken shop where you can get extra stuff for free or buy it. The DLC characters will have their stories expanded in a special mode, and the Tekken World Tour was added in April.

They’ll keep updating the shop with new stuff, like the UNIQLO UT x Tekken pack. Plus, they’re planning to expand the story mode in the summer, exploring how different characters fit into the main story. And guess what? It’s all free!

The game has a high user rating of 9.2 out of 10, based on 1,899 ratings. That’s the highest rating for any game with a lot of ratings. There are a few games with higher scores, but they only have a handful of ratings.

Just to compare, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth got a 9.0 from 3,350 ratings, Helldivers 2 got an 8.2 from 1,558 ratings, and Persona 3 Reload got an 8.5 from 645 ratings.

Stellar Blade is the perfect game for both beginners to the Souls-like genre and fans of character action games. They said it’s like a mix of God of War Ragnarok and Bayonetta, offering a good challenge and satisfying combat.

Some players have complained about lag in the game when dodging and parrying, but the director says it’s on purpose.

The game got a New Game Plus mode in a patch right on release day.

And in another update, they removed some graffiti from the game that had a racial slur in it by mistake.

The developers are planning to release some DLC for the game, including free costume bundles for the main character, Eve. There are already 30 outfits to choose from in the base game.

Escape From Tarkov is facing some tough times lately, with players not happy about the new EFT Unheard Edition from its creator, Battlestate Games. But while that game deals with criticism, another one is stepping up with its launch date.

This new game, Gray Zone Warfare, is a realistic FPS game with a big focus on tactics. It’s set in a fictional place called the Democratic Republic of Lamang, which has been evacuated and quarantined.

The map is huge and detailed, inspired by the Pacific region. You play as part of a military group sent to take control of the area.

In Gray Zone Warfare, you’ll face both other players and computer-controlled enemies. Strategy is key here – you have to move carefully and work with your team.

The game’s gunplay is realistic, so making noise can alert enemies, and getting hit in different body parts affects you differently. Plus, you have to treat wounds differently depending on where you got hit.

After a long testing period, Gray Zone Warfare is finally launching on Steam early access. If you’re looking for something different from Escape From Tarkov or other shooters like Call of Duty Warzone, you might want to check it out. The release date is Tuesday, April 30th.

Alan Wake 2 just came out a little while ago, but Remedy Entertainment, the folks behind it, are already almost done with their next game. But if you were hoping for Control 2, well, it looks like you’ll have to wait longer, maybe over a year.

Remedy recently talked about their plans in a financial report. They said a game called Codename Condor, which is connected to Control, is almost ready. They’re doing big tests to make sure it’s fun to play. They call it a multiplayer spin-off of Control, but we don’t know much else about it.

As for Control 2, it’s still in the early stages, just figuring out if it’ll work. And they’re also working on remakes of the first two Max Payne games. Those are moving along too, with one starting full production soon. But they didn’t say when any of these games will come out.

The report also talks about how Remedy is doing financially. They bought all the rights to the Control series recently.

They also said Alan Wake 2 sold a lot of copies and they’re still making extra stuff for it. Overall, they made more money this year compared to last year, but spending on game development went up, mainly because of the Max Payne remakes.
