Dishonored 2 Karnaca

Dishonored 2 was confirmed at Bethesda’s E3 press conference last week, and now the first details of the long awaited sequel to the stealth hit Dishonored are coming in. Dishonored 2 will take place in Karnaca, an entirely new city in an entirely new region. With Dishonored 1 taking place within the streets of Dunwall, fans are excited to see more of the empire.

Dishonored 2 takes us to Karnaca, the capital city of Serkonos at the southernmost end of the empire. It’s known as a cultural hub, a metropolis where people from all over the empire, with all of their cultures and customs, mix together. The city is a popular tourist destination for the upper classes. It’s also got some pretty tough police, called the Grand Serkonan Guard, that will likely serve as the main enemy force in Dishonored 2.

As for Serkonos, the country where Dishonored 2 will take us, it is known as the “Jewel Of The South.” Famous for its vast beaches and warm climate, it’s where wealthy of the empire go for a relaxing getaway. It’s also famous for its spicy cuisine and traditional dances, which children learn early in life. Remember the blood sausages Corvo could eat throughout Dishonored 1? That’s actually a Serkonan recipe. Sounds delicious.

While many fans of Dishonored 1 may not have even heard of Serkonos or its capital Karnaca before the announcement of Dishonored 2, the choice to use this land as the next game’s location is no coincidence. Both Corvo and Daud, the only two playable characters from Dishonored 2, were born in Serkonos. In fact, Corvo is the first person ever to hold the position of Royal Protector who was born outside of Gristol (of which Dunwall is capital).

Dishonored 2 may also reveal some interesting details about the events of the first game. There’s an old Serkonan poem called “Death in the Month of Songs” that strongly alludes to the rat plague that wreaks havoc in Dishonored 1.

Rhiannon likes video games and she likes writing, so she decided to combine them. As well as writing about video games, she also belts out the occasional science fiction or fantasy story, edits videos, and eats strawberry oreos. In that order.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora has received an exciting update that introduces a new graphical mode, elevating the game’s visual experience. With a smooth frame rate of 40 frames per second and enhanced resolutions, players can now immerse themselves in even more stunning and detailed environments. Now downloadable on PS5 with the latest patch 3.2, this mode is compatible with 4K TVs that can handle up to 120 Hz. Before this update, Avatar PS5 only offered quality and performance modes. However, with this new option, players can now enjoy the benefits of both modes after downloading the 2.4GB update.

Throughout the PS5 era, 40fps modes have been a rarity, much to the disappointment of the hardcore community. Insomniac Games first introduced them in Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales and later added the feature to Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. They also included it in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. Other PS5 titles, such as Hogwarts Legacy, Lies of P, and God of War Ragnarok, also offer 40fps modes.

In addition to that, Patch 3.2 for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora brings along the following:

Worldwide:

  • Research Station Alpha now features a convenient Fast Travel option
  • The issue of controller re-mapping and resetting on game restart has been resolved
  • Addressed multiple instances of crashes
  • I corrected a few spelling errors
  • Addressed the issue of voice lines overlapping during dialogue

Primary Objectives & Optional Objectives:

  • [Main Quest: Shadows of the Past] This main quest is an intriguing journey into the depths of history. Addressed a bug that previously hindered quest progression in co-op mode

More bug fixes have been implemented.

  • [Available on all platforms] The rescued human characters no longer return to the Resistance HQ wearing masks
  • Available on all platforms. There is a noticeable improvement in the visibility of NPCs when they are at the edge of the Player’s vision
