Earlier than most publishers do, Crystal Dynamics and Amazon Game Studios have revealed the Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis PC system requirements, and it's not good news for anyone playing on a mainstream GPU, though it's hardly surprising, considering the game is powered by Unreal Engine 5. The system specifications published on the game's Steam store page detail the minimum and recommended requirements early, but with a significant catch: there's no indication of target resolution and framerate. Requirement Minimum Specifications Recommended Specifications OS Windows 10/11 (64-bit) Windows 10/11 (64-bit) Processor Intel Core i5-8600 / AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Intel Core […]

Crimson Desert is receiving the best single-player post-launch support we have seen in a long time, with the release of weekly patches that add more content to the game, including fulfilling the community's requests, while addressing some of its shortcomings. This week, we learned that Pearl Abyss is planning to address the game's biggest sore point, its disjointed story, and while this is not ideal, veteran developer Josh Sawyer praised the initiative. “I think this is fine / good even if it isn’t ideal - like patching anything,” the Fallout: New Vegas director said on Bluesky in reply to a […]
