Huge news for Capcom tonight as “Resident Evil 7” just won “Best VR Game” at the Game Awards!

It’s hands down one of the best and scariest games I’ve ever played. I can only imagine how frightening it is in VR. Bloody Disgusting’s Justin Yandell just wrote a piece on VR games, highlighting “Resident Evil 7” as one of the best. In fact, he went as far as to write that he felt “a terrible pity for people who weren’t able to play it in VR,” further adding that it was “immersion on a level I’d never experienced before.”

Jimmy Champane reviewed the game on release, expressing that it “sets a new standard for survival horror,” adding that it’s “one of the scariest, most engaging survival horror stories out there.”

If you haven’t played the game yet, see if you can find a way to play it in VR because it can only be even more terrifying than the standard version on various platforms.

Final Post-launch Update “Master of Fate” Now Available for ‘Lords of the Fallen’ [Trailer]

CI Games and HEXWORKS have today launched v1.5 for their dark fantasy action-RPG Lords of the Fallen, titled “Master of Fate”. This latest content update for Lords of the Fallen is available on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, and the Xbox Series, and delivers the final milestone of the game’s post-launch roadmap in the form of the advanced game modifier system.

Master of Fate imbues power directly into players’ hands, allowing them to fully customise their game experience. Among the seven different modifiers available to players, for example, are randomised enemy spawns and loot drops, and an Ironman mode. These three modifiers effectively turn Lords of the Fallen into a roguelite.

“We’d like to thank the many players who have embarked upon Mournstead since we launched six months ago; their belief in our vision has been a real driving force for us,” explains Saul Gascon, Executive Producer and Head of Studio, HEXWORKS. “In response to their support for the game, we expanded the period of live support for Lords of the Fallen with an ambitious post-launch roadmap. This was built around four significant content updates, alongside numerous smaller releases, which included tons of new content and quality of life patches. Reaching v1.5 with the Master of Fate update and its genuinely groundbreaking modifier system marks the completion of that roadmap, making the Lords of the Fallen experience the best it’s ever been.”

Master of Fate features a wide range of modifiers, enabling players to tweak and customise playthroughs for a truly unique experience every time, including:

  • Random enemy spawn: Every encounter becomes completely unpredictable with every playthrough, with any of the 70+ enemy types capable of appearing at any point
  • Random loot spawn: Players will never know what item they’ll pick up next, as any weapon, piece of armour, or item can be randomly found throughout Mournstead
  • Ironman: For the ultimate “git gud” challenge; get slain in Umbral with this modifier enabled and players will have to start their journey again, albeit with items and character level intact.
  • Withered healing: Health items and spells will only replenish as withered healing, which can only be regained fully by dealing damage to enemies, encouraging aggressive play to survive.
  • Mob density modifier: Adjust the density of enemy mobs encountered through the journey across Mournstead in both Axiom and Umbral

If all of that wasn’t enough, To celebrate the launch of Master of Fate, PlayStation players can currently enjoy a 50% discount on the game for a limited time, while both standard and deluxe editions of Lords of the Fallen will be available on Steam at a 50% discount starting on April 29th as part of CI Games’ Steam Publisher Sale.
