History boffins, your time is now. I'll happily admit that I don't count myself among you. I have a decent knowledge of history, but games like Victoria 3 show me new depths that never fail to astonish me. The brilliant thing about the game's published diaries from developers at Paradox is that you can see the sheer amount of research that's gone into making this game as authentic as possible. There's no difference for the next update, which comes alongside the National Awakening DLC.

Intels chief financial officer, David Zinsner, has made a rare confession, admitting that Intel kind of fumbled the football on the desktop side, when referring to the companys current Arrow Lake gaming CPUs at the Deutsche Bank 2025 Technology Conference. The admission comes as AMD swallows Intels desktop CPU market share at an alarming rate, but Zinsner says hes confident that forthcoming Intel Nova Lake CPUs will address this situation.AMD is currently giving Intel a hard time on our best gaming CPU guide, where we currently dont recommend any of Intels new Arrow Lake CPUs. In the benchmarks for my Core Ultra 7 265K review, I found a chip that did a good job of addressing the high temperatures and power draw of Intels previous Raptor Lake chips, but which struggled to keep up with Intels older CPUs, let alone the latest AMD CPUs with 3D V-cache, in games, and in some cases the performance drop-off was huge. My recent tests of the same chip in our Alienware Aurora R16 review show that AMDs X3D chips still have the edge here as well.

AMD could be about to release a new variant of its Radeon RX 9070 range that, if it's priced right, might give gamers a new mid-range gaming GPU champion, hints a new rumor. The AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE 16GB is rumored to be a new 16GB variant of the existing RX 9070 GRE 12GB that would ensure this otherwise cut-down RX 9070 variant has plenty of VRAM breathing room for future game support. Quite aside from this being an unconfirmed rumor, there is a catch, though.The RX 9070 range is AMD's current top-of-the-line GPU series, with the RX 9070 XT leading the pack, followed by the RX 9070. The existing RX 9070 GRE 12GB is a slightly feature-reduced version that is still more powerful than the RX 9060 XT 16GB. Several of these existing models have impressed us enough to earn a spot on our best graphics card guide, but a new variant that sits between the RX 9060 XT 16GB and the RX 9070 would be a welcome addition.

The Metal Gear series is one of the few franchises that remains a pop culture phenomenon years after its final entry, with creator Hideo Kojimas last contribution to the franchise being 2015s The Phantom Pain. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is one of the most beloved entries in the series, and the new Metal Gear Solid Delta remake brings the 2004 classic back into the spotlight, losing none of what made the original great in the process. If youre planning to buy the game, you might want to head over to Fanatical, where, for just a few more days, you have a chance to get it for just $1.

Im already eagerly anticipating Monster Hunter Wilds Title Update 3, which is set to introduce one of the most unique fights the action RPG series has seen in its 20-year history. I certainly didnt expect Omega to be the Final Fantasy crossover of choice, but the potential for interesting dynamics it creates is massive. Yet I might actually be even more excited about a change to cosmetic loadouts, which is set to blow the dust off my layered sets and ensure I fall into the vice grip of lethargy no longer.

League of Legends has a long old history with third-party applications. I remember the days of Curse Voice, before Riot eventually went on to develop Leagues in-client voice chat system. As times gone on, these external services became more sophisticated, feeding you all the information you could ever need to dominate the Rift. The long-running point of contention here has been the advantage players get for using the likes of Porofessor and Blitz over those who dont, creating an environment where it was almost a necessity to download a tool to ensure parity. With the latest LoL patch, 25.17, Riot sought to level the playing field by introducing native jungle timers. However, its own iteration of the feature appears to have overshot the mark.
