Create your wizards ahead of Capcom’s open-world RPG launching Ahead of launchingDragon’s Dogma 2later this month, Capcom have released its character creator for free as a separate standalone doodad. You can create your character and your main Pawn (NPC sidekick) and save them to use in the full game.

The game’s Affinity system saw NPCs organically forming an attachment to players when you interacted with them, gave them things or carried out tasks for them....

In some ways, then, it’s a problem that theFalloutTV show looks good in its latest trailer. You might have to watch it when it releases on Amazon Prime on April 11th....

“I am extremely disappointed with the behavior,” says Arrowhead CEO Arrowhead’s CEO Johan Pilestedt has apologised for some spicy developer responses to players complaining aboutHelldivers 2’s first major balancing patch, which made certainHelldivers 2 gunsand equipment pieces significantly less powerful alongside other adjustments to the newshooter’s armor system, maps and missions.
