The Wakizashi is a Dagger in Elden Ring inherently capable of causing Blood Loss and excels in short-range melee combat. Scaling primarily with Strength and Dexterity, this weapon is initially equipped with Quickstep, but its wielder can imbue it with any Dagger-related Ash of War. The Wakizashi cannot be Powerstanced with other Daggers, but it can be paired with a second Wakizashi or a Katana-type armament. Powerstancing a Katana with this Dagger will cause attacks to consume 20% less Stamina than using two Katanas, but this advantage comes at the cost of melee reach....

One of the most welcome additions to the Souls formula in Elden Ring is the Ash Spirits. These Spirits are summonable NPCs that can aid you in battle, each with unique weapons and ways to approach combat. Some even have their own side quests for you to complete! Not only can they be a great help when players hit a wall in the world or at a boss, but they can also be leveled up, meaning that if a player wants them to be, these Spirits can also be as crucial to their build as their weapons and armor....

One of the most intriguing playstyles and stats in Elden Ring is Faith. While Faith navigates through all, play styles and game settings, Strength, Dexterity, and Intelligence all contribute in some manner to raw damage. Faith/Anything is the hybrid for you if you’re looking for real power. However, Faith/Strength is for those who enjoy smashing things with very large weapons while possessing all manner of Incantations to buff, heal, and do ranged damage....

Where many spells and incantations found in Elden Ring allow you to attack enemies from a distance, the Collapsing Stars spells are a little different as it is meant to close the distance between you and your opposition. This spell is similar to fellow Gravity sorcery, sending out a gravitational projectile that will pull the enemies that are hit back towards the player. The difference is that Collapsing Stars sends out a volley of multiple projectiles to hit multiple enemies at once....

Elden Ring is only a month away now, and FromSoftware fans are eagerly awaiting the next adventure from the team that brought us Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Those who’ve played those games won’t be surprised to hear about some returning features — and one that continues to be absent.

Elden Ring miner Sekiro Dubi has recently disclosed in a post that upcoming updates for the latest FromSoftware game may indeed include player vs player Colosseum battles. The statement included a short video wherein Sekiro Dubi’s character is in a coliseum all while four in-game text banners with the words “Begin Match,” “You Win,” “Draw,” and “You Lose” were continuously being shown in a loop. The background of the video also showed two units engaged in battle suggesting that the future DLC package may include other unique PvP features....

Water is wet, and Elden Ring is a popular game — 12 million copies sold in less than a month is astounding. But why did so many people pick it up? How many of those 12 million copies were for newcomers? At least one survey seeks to answer these questions. GI.biz conducted a survey of its readers, and of the more than 200 people who responded, 35% of them had picked up Elden Ring....

During the Microsoft press conference at E3 2019, we got our first glimpse of Elden Ring. A collaborative project between From Software and George R.R. Martin, the game dives deep into the type of dark fantasy world that we have grown to expect from recent Miyazaki projects. An interview with Miyazaki has appeared on the Xbox website, where he talks about the development process of the game, and what he hopes to achieve with the project....

A new games console is always a fun time, but it is also hard to keep a secret. As such, the Evercade caught me a little by surprise. The Evercade website describes the console as “a brand new handheld console with unique multi-game retro cartridges from leading games publishers and console platforms.” It seems that one of the goals of the console is to get plenty of high quality, classic retro games onto the platform....

The full list of available solo mode missions in Evil Dead: The Game.

It’s crazy to think that we’re already halfway through the final month of 2020. Part of me is very happy to put it behind us, but some part of me is sad to see it go. We may have had terrible circumstances with the pandemic and all that, but we also got quite a few fantastic titles. One of those titles was Fall Guys, a battle royale that dared to do something different....

Within the next couple of weeks Bethesda is going to issue a patch for Fallout: New Vegas. The patch will be the precursor to the launch of the game’s next downloadable content. Right now, all signs point to that content being Honest Hearts which was seen last week.

Let’s get capped! Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers has effectively reached its end but lots of players are still figuring out how to farm Tomestones of Revelation. Before, when the cap was 450 Tomestones a week, this was a breeze as you could run just one Duty Roulette: Expert a day, five days a week and easily cap out. However, with the cap now moved to 900 a week, this becomes a bit trickier....

Be prepared before you head into PKs. A penalty shootout is something that you’ll always need to be prepared for in FIFA 19. Just in case the game comes down to a penalty shootout, most people will be familiar with the offensive controls, but being able to defend with the goalkeeper is integral to winning the shootout. The goalkeeper has relatively simple controls in the penalty kick shootout. To block penalties you can move the goalkeeper from side to side with the left stick....
