This week on Digital Fiasco, hosts Dandr0id and Jack McBastard talk about how games stretch content: DLC, Games as a Service, and Free to Play models.
Right before the full reveal of Warframe 1999 at TennoCon, we chatted with Ben Starr about the responsibility of stepping into such a huge franchise.
Vans World 2 launches on Roblox with skate challenges and the chance to cop the Mixxa sneakers before they’re available in the real world.
Push Square writes: "A dedicated PSVR2 app has been published to PC platform Steam ahead of expanded compatibility for the VR headset going live on 7th August 2024. The application will be available the day before, and it guides you through the setup of the device for use on PC as well as acting as the place to update the headset and its Sense controllers when patches become available."
