Obsidian recently released Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire on PC to high praise. The game is comprised of an island chain with a huge city, volcanoes, pirates and desolate sandbars. Playing in a isometric view like a traditional dungeon-crawling RPG, players will also have access to ships to help get around Deadfires open world. A lot of community feedback went into Pillars of Eternity II and Hardcore Gamer recently sat down with Adam Brennecke, Executive Producer and Lead Programmer, to talk about what helped make the new game succeed.

PQube and The Gentlebros have announced that Cat Quest II: The Lupus Empire will be coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC via Steam in 2019.

The Mega Man franchise is all about conquering difficult stages and besting the Robot Master at the end to acquire their abilities. While we already knew about Block Man and Fuse Man, we now know the third Robot Master: Blast Man. 
As the name implies, Blast Man is a volatile adversary with an undying love of explosions. This is reflected in both his abilities as well as his stage design. Taking place in an abandoned amusement park/movie studio hybrid, the stage features plenty of explosive elements and a mid-boss themed around an out-of-control roller coaster. 

Once you reach Blast Man, he hops around the room, tossing explosives Mega Man's way. If you defeat Blast Man, you unlock an ability that floats bombs across the screen that stick to enemies. You can also chain together bombs for multiple explosions, or use the Power Gear to detonate one massive explosion.
Capcom also detailed Mega Man 11's parts upgrade system. Using bolts you collect from defeating enemies, you can upgrade Mega Man's abilities and craft new items. One of the upgrades you can purchase from Dr. Light using bolts is the Auto-Charge ability, which causes Mega Man's mega buster to charge on its own. Several other upgrades will be available to purchase using these bolts.

Mega Man 11 also features different challenges outside of the main game. Time Attack puts players up against the clock as they race to complete the stages as quickly as possible. Balloon Attack presents a similar premise, but all the enemies are removed from the stages. Instead of simply making it through the stages, you must burst balloons by shooting or touching them. However, you're still up against the clock, and each blue balloon you miss or red balloon you pop adds to your time, creating a unique challenge within the traditional Mega Man formula.
Mega Man 11 is set to launch on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC on October 2. For more on the development of Mega Man 11, check out .

Update, July 3: Another restriction on Fallout 76 griefers has been revealed - a protection for low-level players.
You won’t have to worry about getting griefed when you’re making your exploratory steps in Fallout 76, because you’re safe from other players up until level five. That’s one of many precautions against griefing Todd Howard mentions in a new interview.
The rule against killing low level players may change, Howard says, but Bethesda’s aware that everyone’s worried about aggressive players ruining the experience for everyone. With those precautions in place, the team wants to allow players the freedom to either engage in PvP or avoid fights if that’s their preference.
Perhaps Fallout 76 will make it into our list of the on PC.
There’s little detail on how the level restriction works beyond that, and we are working through the oddities of Google Translate - the original interview comes through Italian outlet , as brought to attention on . Even with the limitations of machine translation in mind, the gist of the answer is clear enough.
As mentioned in  on the making of Fallout 76, aggressive players will be given a wanted level. Another griefing protection is that the game's PvP system is more like a challenge system than an all-out brawl.
According to a tweet from Bethesda's senior vice president Pete Hines, "PvP is kinda like issuing a challenge [sic] to someone." You can check that tweet out below:

Assassin's Creed: Liberation HD and Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter are the to the Xbox One's ever-growing .
Liberation initially launched in 2012 as a PlayStation Vita exclusive, but saw a spruced-up re-release on Xbox 360, PS3, and PC in 2014 under the HD moniker. Fun fact: its new backward compatibility status means that all console games in the Assassin's Creed series are now available on Xbox One.
Liberation was initially marketed as an Assassin's Creed 3 spin-off (although its connecting thread is mainly just a shared time period), and follows the exploits of Aveline de Grandpré around 18th century New Orleans and the Louisiana Bayou. Eurogamer's resident Assassin's Creed expert/obsessive Tom Philips ranked Liberation at number eight in last year, if you're curious to know how it stands among its peers.
