Here’s how to move your base in Palworld Wondering if you can move your base in Palworld?A few hours intoPalworldand your base is bound to be a bustling hive of activity, with Pals running to and fro and a whole lot of resource harvesting going on. But if you’ve built your base near the starting area on the Plateau of Beginnings, things might get a little crowded before long. As you progress further into the wilds of the Palpagos Islands, you may run into numerous plots of land suitable for a new home of operations....

“We’re not doing this to appease shareholders,” insists CEO Riot Games have announced that they will shortly lay off “about 530” people, or 11 per cent of their global workforce, so as to “create focus and move us towards a more sustainable future”, in the words of CEO Dylan Jadeja. The “biggest impact” will be felt outside of core development, though the reductions will affect at least one major internal team - the developers ofLegends Of Runeterra....

PCIe 5.0, DDR5, two NVMe slots and WiFi included. Dear reader, are you - like everyone else I know - keen to build a small form factor PC?

It cost £329.99 last year, but now it’s on sale from Amazon UK for just £239....

Stay out of the ladies restroom Today I’m just tickled pink seeing an excellentDeus Excosplayer fully step into the role of JC Denton, funny walk and weird talk and all. Seeing as you voted the seminal immersive simyour seventh-favourite RPG of all time, I thought you might like to see it too. It’s very good.

The Arctic Liquid Freezer II is well-reviewed too. 420mm AiOs are quite rare - not many cases come with space for three 140mm fans in a row - but they’re the biggest size of consumer radiators currently available and offer unmatched cooling potential. Therefore, it may be of interest to you to learn that the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 420 is down to just £79 at Amazon UK, a crazy-low price for a cooler of this size and prowess....

Let’s settle this For a series that’s defined by its trials and elaborate murder cases, the greatest crime in Ace Attorney history is arguably one we never get to see or take part in. Okay, maybe crime is too strong a word. Miscarriage of justice is perhaps more appropriate, and specifically that of Apollo Justice, the cover star of thislatest trilogyin Capcom’s beloved lawyer ‘em up. Except poor old Apollo isn’t really what holds this collection of Ace Attorneys 4, 5 and 6 together at all....

Orion and Polaris projects move ahead The nextCyberpunkgame from CD Projekt - currently codenamed “Orion” - might havemultiplayerin it, according to co-CEO Michal Nowakowski. Please let it be some kind of deckhead ‘passenger-seat-driver’ mode, where you get to play a crusty celeb uploaded to another character’s brain implants, who strolls around the landscape as a hologram, offering passive-aggressive commentary. Watch those corners, samurai! Hey, you missed an ammo pack. SAMURAI ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME....

Claims that it’s a rip-off give way to accusations of outright plagiarism Pocketpair’s monster-collectingsurvivalgamePalworldhas rekindled the eternal debate over what exactly constitutes a breach of copyright. While the game’s mechanics are more reminiscent ofArk: Survival Evolvedand other tree-punching, template-arranging wilderness sims, its monsters owe obvious debts to Nintendo and Game Freaks' Pokémon games.

You’ve got a small, diminutive hero with a nasty little blade up his sleeve, a haunting and melancholy piano score, a beautiful hand-drawn animation style, and lots of mean-looking creatures to fight. Then again, the trailer also makes it clear there are lots and lots of spikes and traps to navigate here, which puts me more in the mind ofPrince of Persia: The Lost Crown....

Double-wide 32:9 gaming monitors are becoming increasingly affordable, which is brilliant for anyone that prefers an ultra-wide aspect ratio but doesn’t want to deal with the relatively limited desktop real estate of your standard 21:9 ultrawide. Right now you can pick up LG’s 45-inch 45GR65DC, which essentially combines two 24-inch 1440p 200Hz screens into a single titanic panel, for just $550 - rather than the usual $700. That $150 discount turns this into a great alternative to a traditional two monitor setup, letting you have tons of space for getting work done as well as a super-immersive ultrawide gaming experience - just lovely....
