Mihoyo’s hidden a ton of achievements behind tiny things you can do just by chance in Genshin Impact. One of those little acts includes getting zapped by lightning, but one traveler learned the hard way that a storm can get you during inopportune moments. You may have already seen this before, but occasionally Genshin Impact can get a little bit messy and glitch out. You can be minding your own business, talking to an NPC, enjoying the fresh air and a peaceful cutscene then wham, an enemy attacks and interrupts a tender moment while you’re defenseless....

At this point, there’s no denying that Minecraft is one of most successful indie games ever. The open-world sandbox adventure game recently celebrated its fifth birthday and made its leap to current-gen consoles. The game continues to sell like crazy and it’s hard to go out in public without seeing at least a few kids wearing Creeper t-shirts or toting around pick-axe back packs. All of that merchandise revenue is about to have a new home, now that Mojang has officially been sold to Microsoft....

For those of you who just need more Mobile Suit Gundam in your lives, Right Stuf has just revealed one heck of a Gundam SEED package. Now, if there’s one thing gamers and anime fans alike always enjoy, it’s a special edition release. Nintendo Switch fans, for instance, will often hold off on purchasing a title on the eShop in the hope that a physical release will follow suit. This has been the trend with the system, after all....

It sounds like the developers behind Halo Infinite are working hard to polish the game and fix bugs. As the latest entry in the series, Halo Infinite still needs some work in preparation for launch. Originally meant to be a launch title for the new Xbox Series consoles, the game saw a delay to 2021. Despite being the flagship game, Halo Infinite’s reveal met with less than stellar reception from fans....

Last year, 343 released an eight-minute demonstration of its upcoming game Halo Infinite. While most of the gameplay would look pretty familiar to Halo fans, there were a few new features, such as the Master Chief’s new wrist-mounted grappling hook. A recent development update teases that the Grappleshot isn’t the only new weapon in the Halo arsenal. It will be just one of the many ways players will interact with Halo Infinite’s open world....

Halo Infinite’s official Twitter account has confirmed that the game’s multiplayer component will be free to play. The announcement follows 8 minutes of Halo Infinite gameplay debuting at the recent Xbox showcase, giving fans their first real glimpse at Master Chief’s Xbox Series X entry. What makes the announcement especially significant is the rumor that Xbox Live Gold may be phased out, which would allow users to access multiplayer without having a subscription of any kind....

One editor goes hands-on with Rare’s Sea of Thieves, coming away toting the imminent high seas multiplayer title as the long awaited return to form for the famed studio. I pulled out a shoddy looking mug and began inhaling its alcoholic contents. Polishing off the pint, I swapped over to a guitar of some sort and began to strum the instrument, and then I heard it… a voice telling me to head towards the ship....

With Hitman 3, players once again take control of Agent 47 in order to perform numerous assassinations across various locations. While this highly-anticipated stealth game is structed in a way that will encourage many fans to extensively explore its maps and perform these killings numerous times, some may be curious about how long a straightforward playthrough takes. For those players that are indeed wondering about the length of Hitman 3, full details can be found in what follows....

Hitman 3 has been out for less than a month, but players wasted no time in finding inventive ways to mess around with it. The latest example of mustache-twirling overkill comes from YouTuber Teallen96, who spent ten hours meticulously knocking out every single NPC in the game’s picturesque Mendoza level and dragging them to the industrial grape press, where they all simultaneously meet their untimely demise. Teallen96’s Hitman 3 video is only about 80 seconds long, but he claims the set up for the grand crushing took him a whopping ten hours of sneaking, choking out and body-dragging....

IO Interactive’s conclusion to the World of Assassination Trilogy is nearing its arrival, as Hitman 3 will be released in just over a week. While Hitman 3 will feature exciting new locations like Dubai, it will also come with a massive trophy set — including a platinum trophy. That said, fans should be aware that there are some story spoilers in the trophy list. While 2016’s Hitman and its 2018 sequel Hitman 2 were received positively by fans, one of the common complaints was that there was no platinum trophy for the games....

Hogwarts Legacy is slated to release later this year and was only announced mere months ago. Still, players have burning questions about the plot, setting, and characters, namely the protagonist and character customization. Though some have considered Cyberpunk 2077’s story to be strong, the character customization and lifepath options for V have been largely criticized. Picking or being assigned to a Hogwarts house has been largely speculated on and as one of the main draws of the Harry Potter series and its subsidies, it’s bound to be under scrutiny....

We’ve heard rumors of a major new Harry Potter game in development for quite some time now, but the recent PlayStation showcase finally brought us an official trailer for Hogwarts Legacy. Much of what we previously suspected/heard about this project remains true of the final version. It is indeed a Harry Potter RPG that allows you to roam an open-world version of Hogwarts as a custom created character. That also means that you’ll be able to attend classes, interact with classmates, and generally do all of the things that we associate with the school of magic....

Reviews of Guerrilla Games’s highly-anticipated action-RPG title Horizon: Zero Dawn are rolling out, confirming whether this “zero” was a hero or if it fell a bit flat. Since Horizon: Zero Dawn was announced at E3 2015, with an exciting reveal trailer, there has been a steady purr of anticipation surrounding the Guerrilla Games title. Today, the action-RPG’s review embargo has finally lifted, which means fans eagerly awaiting the chance to play as Aloy and voyage through the post-apocalyptic landscape can discover how the finished game stacks up....

When Jim Halpert mimicked Dwight Schrute’s personality on The Office, he did so by addressing the three most important “B’s” in Dwight’s life: Bears, Beets, and I Can’t Believe They’re Going to Let the Writer of Dark Phoenix Write the Battlestar Galactica Movie. Yes, according to The Hollywood Reporter, Simon Kinberg has signed on to write and produce the long-gestating Battlestar Galactica film. Kinberg is best known for his work writing and/or producing all of the X-Men movies after Bryan Singer left the franchise in X2....

Legendary horror filmmaker George A. Romero passed away in 2017, but it seems like he’s in the news now more than in the last few years before his untimely death. First it was announced earlier in 2021 that a “lost” Romero film called The Amusement Park had been rediscovered and restored, and would premiere this month on horror streaming service Shudder. It’s essentially a 53-minute public service announcement about aging and elder abuse, commissioned by the Lutheran Society back in 1973 and filtered through the filmmaker’s nightmarish worldview, and it’s more than time it sees the light of day....

While Morbius’s new trailer is the kind of conventional plot-exhibiting montage that—in an arguably self-defeating manner—overshares enough to make viewers feel as they’d seen the entire movie, it also happens to continue its predecessor trailer’s touting of intriguing timeline teases. Indeed, as if the state of Sony’s Marvel Cinematic Universe-adjacent Spider-Man movies wasn’t already convoluted enough, the latest clip adds even more Spider-Man timeline elements, with Easter eggs now revealing connections to the continuities of the Venom and The Amazing Spider-Man movies, solidifying the film’s connectivity to three existing Spider-Man timelines....

Earlier this year, Nintendo confirmed the long-rumored Super Mario 3D All-Stars for the Switch, announcing it and then releasing it in September. The title was a huge financial success, becoming the second best-selling game for the month of September and reaching the top 10 best-selling games of the year, after being on sale for just one month. But with that said, the collection was by no means perfect; fans complaints ranged from the package’s lack of additional features, to the collection overall feeling incomplete....

Game Rant recently had the chance to sit down with Amber Howard, the new Head of Talent at TalentX Gaming (TXG), a collaboration between esports leader ReKTGlobal and TalentX Entertainment. Howard has worked in traditional talent management at the NFL, and branched out into gaming and digital entertainment with Machinima before continuing to work with esports pros and A-list streamers into the present. We had countless questions about content creation, diversity in esports and streaming, and the future of gaming entertainment, but one point about the fall of Mixer and its effects on one of the most inspiring up-and-coming entertainers in gaming struck a chord....

Releasing earlier this week to mixed responses, Cyberpunk 2077 has had a strange launch, with fans seemingly loving the game but hating the egregious bugs and glitches still in need of patching out. That being said, the content appears to be landing well with fans unafflicted by significant, game-breaking glitches, with players taking to the internet to share some of their favorite aspects of CD Projekt Red’s newest project. Some of the most shared content celebrates the game’s assortment of fun Easter eggs, which reference everything from The Witcher 3 and Portal to Demolition Man and Blade Runner....

Well look no further, as this simple guide will showcase how to use a parachute and where you can buy them. Grand Theft Auto V took the world by storm in 2013 as the long awaited successor to Grand Theft Auto IV.
