If you were to ask me whether Im a first-person or third-person kinda guy when it comes to open-world RPGs, Id reply that The Road to El Dorado answered it on my behalf 25 years ago: Both is good. Yes, the immersion of the heros perspective is a core tenet of the experience, but I equally appreciate the extra awareness Im granted during combat with the camera sat at my back. Its been a topic of debate for time immemorial, but Id always advocate that giving the player the choice between the two where possible is the best way to go about it. While The Outer Worlds took the traditional first-person approach, The Outer Worlds 2 has expanded its options, offering a third-person toggle. Obsidians decision to dangle both carrots mimics what it did with Avowed earlier this year, and as game director Brandon Adler and creative director Leonard Boyarsky tell Jamie at Gamescom, The Outer Worlds 2 team wouldnt have added the option if their hand wasnt forced internally.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so they say. Well, Stellaris' next big bad has some resemblance to the classic Dungeons & Dragons foe, and there's something about its Chthonic space energy that is eerily beautiful. As with all Stellaris DLC, this update promises to expand upon the known (and unknown) universe, this time with a psionic awakening as you'll attune to the mysterious Shroud. Developer Paradox Interactive has dropped some big hints about what to expect when the DLC releases via a new trailer, as well as letting players know exactly when they'll be able to get their hands on the new goodies.

What are the Silksong bosses? Pharloom is teeming with bugs of all shapes and sizes, but some are undoubtedly creepier and crawlier than others. Like Hollow Knight before it, Silksongs combat is deceptively punishing, but weve got the boss strategies you need to beat all the main and optional bosses without losing all your masks.Bosses are a staple of Metroidvania games, and we know that Hollow Knight Silksong will have its fair share of challenges for Hornet. According to Team Cherry, there are over 40 bosses to beat in Silksong, which isnt far off from the 47 bosses that appeared in Hollow Knight. On that basis, we expect Silksong to feature around 15 main bosses and at least 25 optional bosses to find and beat across the map.

It looks like Nvidia is cutting back on Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti stock. A new rumor suggests that the chipmaker is reducing the number of GPUs that its board partners can request, with the RTX 5060 reportedly most affected.The RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti both make up a key part of the entry-level lineup of Nvidia GPUs. The RTX 5060 Ti, in particular, has done enough to earn a spot on our best graphics card list, but only in its more expensive 16GB form. Instead, we've found both Nvidia and AMD's cards with 8GB of VRAM have struggled in some gaming tests, making them less compelling options. While this stock reduction rumor is still just that, a cut back on production would seem to suggest that these GPUs havent just struggled in reviewer testing but proved to be less popular with buyers than Nvidia hoped too.

A new Intel gaming CPU with a massive 52 cores has just been hinted at in a shipping manifest, just a week after a 28-core model was seen elsewhere. That core count far outstrips anything weve seen from Intels current Arrow Lake lineup, with its current Core Ultra 285K flagship capping out at just 24 cores.A huge core count doesnt necessarily lead to epic gaming performance, however, and its far too early to say whether or not these Intel Nova Lake CPUs will be contenders on our best gaming CPU guide. Nonetheless, the numbers here are striking. By our estimation, wed expect this CPU to have a maximum of 16 Performance cores (P-Cores), which are the important ones for gaming, leaving 32 Efficiency cores (E-Cores) for multi-threaded work, with potentially four additional low-power (LP) E-cores left for background tasks. That's some serious multi-threaded processing power.
