The Witcher 3 Glitch Allows Players To Fight Really High Level Monsters In New Game Plus

The Witcher 3

The Witcher 3 final free DLC pack has been released last week in all regions and in all formats, finally allowing players to try out the New Game Plus mode. In this mode, players can start a new playthrough with some of the items collected in the previous one and with the level they have completed the game with if above 30. A free Potion of Clearance also become available so that players can try new builds for Geralt. Alongside these features, it seems like The Witcher 3 New Game Plus mode comes with a few unintended ones that will allow players to push the limits of the game further.

A new glitch has been recently discovered which allows players to fight some really high level monsters. To activate the glitch, players will have to obtain a 330%+ Sign intensity in combat, attack a monster with a Sign, run away and then get close to the enemy again. A new video detailing this glitch and showing high leveled Cyclops, Forktail and other monsters has also been made available and you can take a look at it right below.

Now that all free DLC packs are out, the team is focusing on the development of the two The Witcher 3 expansions which will be released later this year and the next. Not much is currently known about the expansions, other than the fact that Hearts of Stone will be set in Oxenfurt and will be around 10 hours long and that Blood and Wine will be around 20 hours long and it will be set in a brand new area called Toussaint. According to CDPR’s Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, the two expansions will be almost as big as The Witcher 2 in size.

The Witcher 3 is now available in all regions on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. We will let you know more about any future update and the expansions as soon as possible so stay tuned for all the latest news.

Sony Has a “Monopoly” on the High-End Japanese Gaming Market, According to a US Senator

The never-ending saga surrounding Microsoft’s proposed $69 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard has a new participant.  Today, Senator Maria Cantwell, a Democrat from the state of Washington, said some things about the subject that were hard to understand.

The senator, whose remarks were reported on by ResetEra, spoke at a Senate finance committee hearing on “the president’s 2023 Trade Policy Plan,” which we are sure was quite interesting.

Senator Cantwell said that she had been told that Sony “controls a monopoly of 98% of the high-end game market” despite the fact that “Japan’s government has allowed Sony to engage in blatant anti-competitive conduct through exclusive deals and payments to game publishers, establishing games that are among the most popular in Japan.”

This 98% statistic is highly deceptive because it ignores PC, Nintendo, and mobile games and instead refers to Sony’s adoption rate over Microsoft in Sony’s native country of Japan, a fact that shouldn’t surprise anyone who is even somewhat familiar with the video game business.

What can we do to rectify these problems and create a level playing field, she said of US Trade Representative Katherine Tai after charging Japan’s Federal Trade Commission with improperly failing to look into this purported “exclusionary conduct”?

It is absurd to claim that Sony has a monopoly on the Japanese video game market, as Luke Plunkett of Kotaku correctly points out, “because Sony doesn’t even have a 98% share of the market for the God of War series, a title they own, as Steam is getting 30% of every sale on PC.”

It goes without saying that we can’t expect elected officials to be experts in every field, but this is a visible step at a time when the ongoing attempt to buy the company is at a very important point.

Is it significant that Microsoft, along with Nintendo, maintains its headquarters in Redmond, Washington—Senator Cantwell’s district—or that Microsoft has given Cantwell more than $500,000 over the past two decades?  Let us leave that up to you.

Pizza Possum is an arcade action game in which you, a possum, attempt to consume as much trash as you can without being discovered.  It is a web-based sequel to the anarchy simulator Untitled Goose Game.It will eventually be available on the PS5.

We couldn’t help but notice that the possum in the title doesn’t look like the cute Australian possum that comes out at night to visit people.On the other hand, it looks like the horrible North American opossums are the ones that will attack trash cans and cause general chaos.Even though we think the second choice was better in terms of theme, we prefer the first one and are happy to explain why.

Your thoughts on Pizza Possum?  Does it possess the necessary mass appeal to successfully skitter along the back fenceline while setting the dog off in the process?
