Destiny 2 Renegades

Destiny 2: Renegades Launch Trailer and ViDoc Premiered During Livestream

Renegades, the Star Wars™ inspired expansion for Destiny 2, launches on December 2

Today, Destiny 2 developers hosted a dedicated Developer Livestream for Renegades, the upcoming expansion in the Year of Prophecy, created in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games and inspired by Star Wars. To mark the expansion’s release next week on December 2, 2025, the team premiered the Destiny 2: Renegades launch trailer and a second ViDoc, “Making of a Renegade,” highlighting their creative process and collaboration with Lucasfilm Games to create an all new Destiny 2 experience with clear homage to Star Wars.

Renegades introduces an arsenal of new weapons and gear, including the Praxic Blade, Destiny 2’s lightsaber-inspired kinetic Exotic Sword. This new weapon offers multiple customization paths that meaningfully impact gameplay, along with earnable cosmetics that alter the color of the blade. Renegades also debuts a new weapon archetype, Blasters, which features a heat-based firing and reload system that replaces traditional magazines.

New Exotics arriving with Renegades include:

Kinetic Sword – Praxic Blade (inspired by lightsabers)
Solar Crossbow – Heirloom (inspired by Chewbacca’s iconic weapon)
Strand Machine Gun – Service of Luzaku
Warlock Helmet – Deimosuffusion
Hunter Legs – Fortune’s Favor
Titan Chest – Praxic Vestment

During the stream, members of the Destiny 2 developer team dove deep into the Lawless Frontier, a new activity designed for replayability and scalable challenge. In Renegades, players build reputation with shady Syndicate factions through the new Notoriety system, taking on a range of solo or three-person missions commissioned by three distinct factions:

The Pikers: An anarchist and atheist biker gang of Eliksni seeking to build a society free from traditional ranks and hierarchy.
Tharsis Reformation: A breakaway sect of sentient Vex, driven by a desire to experience personal identity outside the Vex collective.
Totality Division: A rogue branch of the Barant Imperium Cabal, operating as a Syndicate on Mars and ruled by psions.

Job types include Smuggling runsto transport valuable goods between Syndicate facilities, Bounty Hunts that track and eliminate high-value targets, and Sabotage operations that disrupt rival Syndicate strongholds. Lawless Frontier features new maps set on Mars, Europa, and Venus, expanding these destinations with fresh routes and combat spaces. The update also introduces the new Invasion mode, an opt-in feature which allows a Guardian to spawn into the playing field to disrupt progress and earn unique rewards.

Renegades Abilities are powerful tools that let Guardians bend the rules of combat within the Lawless Frontier mode. Guardians can earn, upgrade, and deploy a wide arsenal of offensive, defensive, and support abilities to enhance their abilities and role in battle.

The new dungeon, Equilibrium, launches on December 13, 2025, at 9:00AM PT. Fans can tune into the official Equilibrium Dungeon Race stream with Evanf1997 and CBGray starting at 6:00AM PT with the pre-show until the race is completed.

Infinity Nikki 2.0

Celebrate One Year of Infinity Nikki with Infinity Nikki 2.0 on November 26

Step into a reimagined Miraland in the game’s most ambitious update yet!

Shanghai, China – November 26 – To mark its first anniversary, Infinity Nikki introduces its landmark Version 2.0 update: Terra’s Call, the most expansive evolution in the series’ history. Available today, this anniversary release invites players to experience a reimagined Miraland, one shaped by freedom, creativity, and connection.

Version 2.0 transforms Infinity Nikki into an even more expressive open-world dress-up adventure. Major upgrades across exploration, combat, storytelling, and customization will pave the way for players to embark on a new journey into Itzaland, the expansive new map debuting with this update. New traversal abilities such as gigantification, grappling, and low-gravity movement make every region, from dense jungles to forgotten ruins, feel alive with possibility. The new Archery expands combat freedom through combat companions and adaptive energy mechanics, while playful interactions like wall-climbing snails, singing mushrooms, and snail drifting bring whimsy and wonder to every corner of the world.

Beyond exploration, Infinity Nikki 2.0 celebrates creativity and connection. Both main and side stories are now freely accessible, empowering players to explore emotional arcs or simply wander at their own pace. New fashion sets, including exclusive anniversary and birthday outfits, continue the game’s tradition of storytelling through style, ensuring that expression remains at the heart of the experience.

As Infinity Nikki marks its first year, this anniversary serves as both a celebration and a reflection of how far Miraland has come. Since its debut, the game has evolved from a visual showcase into a living world shaped by its community’s imagination. Over the past twelve months, players have built, shared, and styled their own adventures, helping transform Infinity Nikki into one of the most creative and warmly received experiences in modern gaming.

“Infinity Nikki has always been about giving players the freedom to express themselves,” said Douhu, Lead Gameplay Systems Design (Outfits) at Infold Games. “With Version 2.0, we wanted to take that freedom even further. This update represents everything we’ve learned over the past year, and everything we still want to build together with our players.”

The Infinity Nikki 2.0 Anniversary Update is out now. Players can access the update for free via Steam, Epic Game Store, and Playstation 5.

Lightyear Frontier

Hello everyone, first off I wanna thank Framebreak for sending me a copy of Lightyear Frontier its greatly appreciated so let’s jump in.

Lightyear frontier is a crafting survival game in outer space on another planet you crash land on the planet after your ship malfunctions leaving you stranded with no way to get to your original destination if there is one. So you walk around trying to find your stuff from your ship and when you find everything you got a bad ass mech suit waiting for you to use it and use it you do.

So your tasked with finding a good spot for your home base and starting to build a homestead and yes its a homestead cause there’s a lot that makes it one after some initial questing you get free rain and can do what you want and here is where the game shines.

So again the game is a survival game you build a house and make some furniture and on the top right you notice a cozy meter that goes up the more stuff you place in your house and around the stuff you build the cozy meter has 4 levels which each offer its own rewards which in return gives you some benefits. You also have an inventory meter tracking how much your carrying and lastly is the day watch which cycles through the day and night times telling you what time of day your in as well as what weather is going on around you.

Since this is a survival game your wondering where does it kick in and well it kicks in now you see you harvest trees, bushes, fruits, ore and water in order to progress your missions and home stead the biggest problem I came across was the farming you spend most of your time finding fruits using a machine to turn them into seeds so you can plant them and multiply now this wouldnt be so bad but the problem is you spend most of your time farming instead of adventuring out of my over 30 days of in game time ive spent most of it farming and gathering food then doing much exploring which I have explored ive discovered about 30 percent of the map.

Now as a survival game you would e,pest a hunger and thirst meter but this game doesn’t have one so your wondering why do I gotta farm and to this I say look up… when you look up you see your planet is surrounded by other planets and a space station and apparently there all in desperate need of help so help you must and this is how the farming comes into place your making tons of food to send to these planets using an awesome delivery cannon you build. Sadly which each mission of help you complete they double in request leading you into a never ending cycle.

The map as I said earlier ive e,plowed about 30 percent and personally I feel this map is way to big for single players but thats my honest opinion the game does offer multiplayer but sadly I wasnt able to try it out as my friends schedule never matched up with mine but I do hope to try it out in the future at some point. The map has 4 areas that you discover and each area has a bunch more that you need to discover is it easy no are there hostiles around the map just 1 this floating yellow spiked orb that if your not paying attention will rush you and explode now it doesn’t do much damage but careful cause they usually float in bunches of 10 or more. The map has plenty to discover and to explore and all I say is wow this game is beautiful.

The game has a beauty that makes you just feel at ease and vibe out no worry about if your gonna die or lose stuff, I loved some of the flora around the map beautiful trees that reminded me of cherry blossoms and colorful plants and bushes the best part are the wild animals you find along the way that you can feed yes you read that right you can feed the wild life and show them love.

The mech is also cool since your using it 100 percent of the time the mech has different modes to help you on your journey i tried to play with these modes but sadly I couldn’t drive them properly they felt way to sensitive on the turns but in normal mech mode it worked fine for me.

The game offers mods and upgrades to help make your survival better and trust me you will need em as when your gathering materials your bag fills up very quick, the mods range from more bag space to more sprint speed as well as mods for the tools you use from the mech to give them different abilities.

This game isnt your traditional survival game its offers a relax feel to the genre instead of stressing out constantly you can vibe out and go at your own pace and dont need to worry about food shortages or crafting materials.

They also just added more content to the game adding new machinery and more raw material sizes to make things a bit easier for you.

All in all lightyear frontier is an amazing cozy survival game that I highly recommend yes you can play it alone but I would suggest some friends to make progress a little easier I give this game a solid 8/10 again I wanna thank frame break for sending me a code have a great day everyone and game on.

DustPunk

First off huge thanks to Clockwork Bird for sending me a copy of dustpunk its greatly appreciated let’s talk about it.

Dustpunk is a tabletop steam punk rpg with a great story and choices that have consequences but thats what makes this game so compelling to play, if you’ve played dungeons and dragons then you will feel right at home with this as every action requires a dice roll to complete and trust me you gotta score decent or that game kicks your butt for it.

So your starting stats are determined by which of the 4 characters you wish you play you’ve got a write, a criminal, an engineer and finally a veteran each character has a strong stat which you would think would benefit you more but it doesn’t feel like it sometimes.

You come home from the war in a dead barge as you were confused for being dead and this is where the first of many rolls start as your fighting for survival and as we know every action has a reaction for me I was screwed right from the start I got a decent roll but still ended up with a broken leg as I escaped the body purge. And after that my hard story begins I had picked an engineer since they sounded the best in my opinion but man was everything a struggle.

The game has 3 status bars that are followed and are honestly a reminder of how real the game feels the first bar is energy which you gain from eating and spend it with every action you take the next is the health bar which fills with food as well I call this the stomach bar because it drains fast and takes a bit to get it under control and finally the bar that cursed me and was my bain is the sanity bar which fills with almost everything major that happens to you and if you dont get enough sleep it fills up more as well I felt this bar was a bit over powered in the sense that everything hurts you and barely anything helps you, the sanity bar is also tied into the dice system see if you fill the bar your dice gets a skull killing whatever number was there and making your dice rolls even harder this had screwed me as I had 3 skulls before I finally lost in my run even tho I had discovered so much and was working and meeting people I could not get the sanity bar under control I feel this needs a bit of tuning to maybe not be so punishing or to offer other ways to make it go down.

This was my first tabletop style game and I gotta say I loved every minute of it even with everything working against me the stories you find really draw you in and make you feel as if your actually there surviving the choices you make. Dustpunk is one of those games where morality doesn’t exist as every choice is you living and breathing to move forward and there’s lots of choices the map is actually pretty big even tho most of it is covered by clouds until you discover it sadly I got close to getting to the second area but I died ending my run.

This game has massive replay ability and if you love making hard choices and consequences then this is the game for you each run will feel hard but rewarding in the sense that you breath just a few more hours until something else tries to take you out.

All in all dustpunk is worth it and will draw you in from the start dice and choices really feel at home with this game, thats all for now thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Night Swarm

Hey everyone hows it going today I wanna talk to you about a little gem called night swarm a vampire rougelite thats actually interesting with its own twist, let’s talk about it, But first I wanna thank Fubu Games for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated.

So night swarm is another one of those vampire survivor like rougelite you are Roderic a vampire assigned with bringing back the glory of your people and castle against the war that threatens to engulf everything. So the game feels like a giant board game the characters all have a base like a board game and they walk the same by jumping around I thought this was awesome it made me smile seeing something different.

The game has a skill tree, relics, artifacts and a bunch of other stuff you discover along the way there’s a giant map divided into parts you must unlock and make your way through but after selecting which part you wanna go to you have a path that has many choices and those are the levels you will be playing in this war. The levels have a lot of different factors to them some are boss fights others you fight against elites but there’s also quest to progress the story and so forth.

You also have companions that will offer different boost to you during your runs so your not alone sadly they dont attack which would have been more helpful then just a buff but thats just my 2 cents. Theres also a bunch of companions you unlock using the reputation you earn.

For mission progression you continue along until you see exclamation points floating around certain lvls so far the story seems interesting from the little bit ive gotten from it i do hope more is explained since now I have vampires and werewolves trying to kill me go figure

If your a fan of rougelites and love vampires then this game is for you there’s no price yet as the release date is December 4th but there is a demo live right now give it a shot and enjoy thanks for stopping by take care and game on.

Dark Quest 4

First off I wanna thank brain seal for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated now let’s talk about dark quest 4.

Tho my time has been brief I have learned a lot from the game, it feels like a classic d&d vibe as you progress around the map with your pieces as the dungeon master looms over you watching your every move, there’s treasures and traps and a skull that helps and hates you but the game has its moments.

So the game throws you into the intro mission where you discover your first 3 characters you explore the dungeon until your able to make your way out thus starting your journey to destroy the big bad guy. At base camp you sit around a camp fire with 5 npcs around you all waiting to help you during your journey from a trainer to a merchant an alchemist to a blacksmith each npc offers a different form of help for your journey and that help comes in the form of quick play cards that you can use in combat from healing to damage to a bit of everything in between.
The journey is divided into tiles on a map that you must progress through in order to reach the end and save the world but the game wont make it easy even with me moving the difficulty sliders around I had a hard time surviving my journeys and would lose 1 of my companions making the rest of my journey that much harder.

The enemies dont play around the undead hordes want you gone and they will make sure your gone if possible the zombie chickens are the worse cause if they surround you then they will screw your run up so fast its not even funny.

Dark quest 4 gives off old school game nights with it playing like a board game its fun the combat is easy to learn and there is no learning curve everything is right there simple and easy to learn and play the game is fun in its own ways.

I played on the nintendo switch I didnt have any issues and the game felt right at home even in hand held mode so if your looking for some nostalgic feels then dark quest 4 is it I give this game a solid 6/10 thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Digimon CyberSleuth

So I recently started playing my first digimon game cybersleuth and its been a fun experience so far let’s talk a bit.

So as the main character you and your friends start off meeting up in eden after only talking in game but you guys get attacked by this monster and thats where the fun starts a cut scene takes over showing the real world and a crowd of people crowding around a digital being that just so happens to be you the main character. Suddenly you get helped by a random women who’s a detective and she helps you out through out the games progression.

So the game takes place in both the real world and digital world and this being my first digimon game i wasnt sure what to expect i had so much to learn and learn i am. You see the digimons have types and weaknesses that are critical for combat, its not like in other games where you can brute force what you do here you actually need strategy and I had to learn that quick as ive come close to having my ass handed to me plenty of times.

Items are crucial in the game as you actually must use them in order to survive fights and some of the fights ive had have been very hard.

You have a good amount of people helping you along the way as you find some crazy story plots that leave you wondering how is that possible after only about 7 chapters I can say this game takes a lot of commitment and work to progress and for my first digimon game im actually happy with it.

Ive been playing on the nintendo switch which I gotta say this console really shines with rpg games being able to just sit and relax the game runs perfectly so far no issues that ive noticed haven’t had any stutters and the load times aren’t that bad coming from a gamer that plays mostly on pc.

All in all im having fun with cybersleuth and will post an update once I get further into the game itself thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Aethermancer

Hello everyone hows it going? Today we talk about aethermancer a creature battling rouge-like, but first I wanna thank Offbrand Games who were awesome enough to send me a copy thank you guys so let’s talk about aethermancer.

I wasnt sure how to feel about this was it trying to be another pokemon style game or did it have enough carved out that it was different and in a genre with dozens of other creature games how would they stand out.

Aethermancers twist is the fact that the game is a rougelite and everything is done in runs similar to other games until you lose and start over again this is the way of the game. In aethermancer you can capture other creatures to help you on your journey you also get to pick from 4 starters me I went with the fire/earth monster named cherufe my buddy over at savior gaming went with nixie who’s a healer but I was able to find a healer quick and him a fire type. So before every run you can purchase upgrades and items to help you survive and make the runs longer which in these games you need that as some of the monsters you find definitely hurt.

The story is simple and solid as you explore the world and the areas of life and death but thats all your getting from me I refuse to spoil the game for future players. I didnt have any issues while playing the game it runs really good which now a days its a must need since one wrong code can cause a mountain of issues.

The game is a little over 20 bucks on steam and has a good amount of reviews keeping it in a positive stance from over 600 players do I recommend it absolutely more indie games need a chance to shine and aethermancer is one of them thats all for now guys thanks for stopping by take care and game on.

Decktamer

Decktamer is what you get when you mix magic and rougelite let’s talk about it. I wanna thank PR Hound and assemble entertainment for sending me a copy greatly appreciated.

So decktamer what is it well its a rougelite but its a deck battler you start with a set amount of monster cards and while exploring you gotta remember to tame monsters so that you can keep progressing and I gotta say man did I get my ass handed to me multiple times. The rouge aspect comes into play with prizes after each round and choosing what path to follow and I gotta say its hard even after the tutorial and playing on easy the game is hard.

The game immediately throws you into a tutorial so you dont gotta worry about going in blind the game takes care of you it puts you through 5 rounds of combat and item usage to give you a basic understanding of everything best part is how everything is shown to you in a book style as if writing a story as you play.
The monsters are insane looking they have health points and speed points we all know what health points do but speed points determine who attacks first the higher your points the better giving you a slight advantage unless your fighting some crazy strong monsters and trust me you will be fighting them.

The monster cards also have effects and abilities so its basically a traditional tcg but with some sick looking cards and power to play with. After some runs you get items from prizes and if you tamed a monster it shows you what they were best part you can tame more then 1 monster per round as long as you have the necessary items.

Decktamer takes the rougelite genre and gives it its own flavor the game is hard and challenging but not to the point where you rage quit constantly its a good game and if you like tcg style games this one might be your next addiction. Thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Pokemon Legends Z-A

Hello everyone hows it going today we talk about pokemon legends za and if its worth it and guess what short answer yes its worth it long answer its absolutely worth it and then some so let’s talk about what game freak, nintendo and the pokemon company gave us.

So where do I start well at the beginning of course so the game starts us off with us the player getting off a train and the grand lumiose city where within seconds we are greeted with the first of many characters that we will encounter taunie after some talking the game continues taking us on a bit of a mission until finally we get to selecting our starter pokemon between chikorita totodile and tepig and yours truly picked my favorite funny boy totodile. Soon after we are dropped into our hotel where we stay during the whole journey of our game. The game starts with a bit of hand holding until maybe after the first 20 minutes give or take where you finally get control and freedom.

So why legends za i dont know but za is the rank tournament that we as the player enter and take part of now i for one was excited about this using you skills in a ranking system instead of the normal badge system and I got behind it the game also introduced a day and night cycle which helps with different adventures in the game during the day you explore the city catching pokemon in the wild zones and at night you battle it out for glory in the za tournament battle royal and it only gets harder as you progress.

Alpha pokemon from legends arceus are back not as big and scary but still big and scary and boy can they hold there own but if you manage to get them down and catch them you have yourself and extra extra large pokemon who dwarfs there normal selves. You find the alpha pokemon in the wild zones there the bosses of the area and in the early game they are a handful.

The starters you actually get to find them in the wild zones at later points in the game and you dont know how happy that makes me to finally be able to catch them and not need to trade for them over and over this is a feature they need to keep moving forward.

Mega forms are back and I for one love the mega evolutions they added flair to the pokemon and some megas just looked so damn cool definitely couldn’t complain about it.

My new favorite feature of this game is the battle system its a real time battle the moves recharged so your no longer stuck to the pp system of old games thank lord and the battles are hectic but fun running around trying to dodge moves and reposition yourself its a blast I dont care what anyone says this new system is top tier and needs to move forward with future games.

I do hate the evolution system pretty sure its the same one from legends arceus where you actually click on the pokemon then click on the option to evolve i for one am not a fan of it one bit.
The trainers in this game are definitely a handful not only are they close to your level but there strong and this is the first game where typing and move types are a huge factor I remember in the old games you could just brute force your way through most fights but in za everything is calculated and moves matter your pokemon type and move type matter but its fun because for once I actually use all 6 pokemon unlike in old games where I mostly stuck to my starter or whoever was my strongest so keep that in mind for your play through.

You will see some familiar faces from the past and there involvement in the story is slowly exposed but so far the story really doesn’t start coming out until near the end where a certain legendary becomes more known.

So the game has 38 main missions 42 post game missions and over 100 side quest missions so you have a good amount of stuff to explore and enjoy.

Now onto the biggest gripe I have with this game is literally after almost every conversation there’s a fucking pokemon battle and sometimes its 2 or 3 battles in a row I got to the point I had 6 battles in a row to progress my story then if I need some info guess what you guessed it another fucking battle by the point im at now I am sick of the game and battles I wanna get the story over with just so im not forced into battles and I can enjoy everything but thats my 2 cents I know pokemon is all about fighting but come on give me a break.

But all in all I’ve enjoyed every aspect of the game and I’ve had fun with all the wild zones and checking out all the stores for the latest fashion I wish they would add a pokeball customization option even if it cost money cause im close to the end of the game and have over 400k in money since I earn 40 to 60k a night I think that would be a cool add on but thats just me anyways guys thanks so much for stopping by hope you enjoyed take care and game on.
