Skyrim Together

If you’ve ever wanted to play Skyrim with your mates, you might be in luck. Skyrim Together is a multiplayer mod that lets 2 or more players play through the full game.

Offering character syncing, interaction and even PvP, this is the real deal. Quests can be completed together, players can join opposing factions and even break each other out of jail.

After years of development, Skyrim Together aims to release an alpha before the end of the year. Judging by the recent gameplay footage they dropped, this doesn’t look entirely unrealistic.

The video showcases a number of new features. These include disabled menu pausing, improved cell changing and plenty of prior bug fixes. We also get a good look at staffs and scrolls working.

According to the developer ‘to-do’ list, most of the gameplay is in there and all that’s left is server maintenance and polishing.

Both Skyrim and Skyrim Special Edition are supported, with the devs confident that cross-play between the two will work.

Although it’s created in their spare time, the developers have ambitious post-launch plans. Many other mods are already compatible and the list will only grow with testing. This includes overhaul mods such as Beyond Skyrim: Bruma, which is confirmed to play nicely.

The team also plan to allow players to create their own mods that fit within Skyrim Together.

There are currently only plans for a PC release. While unfortunate for console players, the amount of work to get it running on these platforms would be monumental.

Split-screen has also been confirmed as a no-go.

While there is no dedicated release date, Skyrim Together is due before the end of 2017. You can check out their to-do list to see what’s on the roadmap.

We’re sure the launch will attract some serious attention so keep an eye out.

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.

  • If you want to join in, navigate to Settings, then Captures & Broadcasts, followed by Captures, Auto Captures, and finally Community Game Help. From there, simply choose the option to participate. Users have the option to unsubscribe whenever they choose
  • During Remote Play, players now have the option to hide the persistent message “Remote Play connected.” that appears on their game screen. To ensure a seamless gaming experience, navigate to the Settings menu, then proceed to the System section. From there, locate the Remote Play option and activate the Hide Remote Play Connection Status feature
  • The system’s software performance and stability have been significantly enhanced
  • The messages and usability on some screens have been enhanced

While not the most groundbreaking update, the Community Game Help feature has the potential to be intriguing, contingent upon the number of games that offer support for it. What are your thoughts on the latest update? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

New PS5 Patch Introduces Rare 40FPS Mode for Avatar Game

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
