Ghost of Tsushima was released on PC on May 16, 2024, almost four years after its release on PlayStation consoles. The "director's cut" version of the game with all the add-ons became available on PC.

Ghost of Tsushima is set on the island of Tsushima in the late 13th century. According to the game's plot, the brave samurai Jin Sakai tries to save his people from destruction by the Mongol Empire, which seeks to subjugate the East.

The PC version of Ghost of Tsushima received a number of improvements over the console version.

• Unlimited frame rate.
• Additional graphics options designed for different PC configurations.
• Compatibility with UltraWide (21:9), Super Ultrawide (32:9), and triple-monitor (48:9) displays.
• Support for NVIDIA DLSS 3, AMD FSR 3, Intel XeSS, NVIDIA Reflex and NVIDIA DLAA technologies.

Sony previously removed Ghost of Tsushima from sale on Steam in countries without the ability to register a PSN account. At the time of this post, the game could not be purchased in those regions.

• A Reddit user showed a photo where you can see that when buying currency for Minecraft, the system specifies the Steam store among the platforms of Minecraft: Bedrock Edition.
• Minecraft has never been on Steam - even though Microsoft has been releasing its games on the store for quite some time.

• Players aren't yet sure if this is a mistake or a hint that the sandbox game from Mojang will finally be coming to Steam.
• The release of Minecraft on Steam may be related to Microsoft's initiative to increase profits in all divisions. As part of it, the company started releasing its games on other platforms, including the console of its direct competitor.

You're okay, Ubisoft?

• Epic Games Store mega-sale starts on May 16 and ends on June 13. According to the verified insider billbil-kun, four AAA games will be given away during the sale - one title per week.
• The first game, according to billbil-kun, will be the GOTY edition of Dragon Age: Inquisition. It is likely that the giveaway is also timed to coincide with the soon-to-be-released Dragon Age: Dreadwolf.
• What other games will be included in the giveaway is unknown. It is likely that Epic Games, as before, will teaser them, giving users the opportunity to guess the title.

The PPSSPP emulator for iPhone and iPad was officially released on May 15. It is available in the App Store in the standard free version and in the premium Gold version, which costs five dollars. Previously, the utility could only be launched using a jailbreak.

Enthusiast Henrik Rydgård said that the program currently works on Apple mobile devices with some limitations. It does not support:

• Vulkan in the MoltenVK library,
• The Magic Keyboard,
• Synchronization with the RetroAchievements website.

In the future, the author of the emulator will release several updates to fix the shortcomings he listed. He also noted that in most cases, games running in PPSSPP will show good results on iOS and iPadOS - even despite the inability to implement JIT recompilation, which improves performance.

Delta emulator, which supports games for the NES, N64, DS and Game Boy, among others, was previously released on the iPhone. According to media reports, it was downloaded more than three million times in the first few days.

• Tango Gameworks has released the latest patch for its rhythm action game Hi-Fi RUSH. The studio published a full description of the update on Bethesda's website. The developers thanked fans for their support and said goodbye to players.

Check out the changes, and thank you again for your support of Hi-Fi RUSH. You're all rockstars!

• In the final update for Hi-Fi RUSH, the Tango Gameworks studio fixed several small bugs related to cutscenes and camera behavior. The developers fixed some bugs in text that "doesn't end in any way". Also in the update they changed the prices of drinks in vending machines.
• Tango Gameworks published art where the key characters of Hi-Fi RUSH gathered together to watch the sunset.

Earlier today, several new Call of Duty "leaks" on upcoming installments went viral across social media, which Insider Gaming can report as complete fiction. The rumors gained some credibility because they came from two Call of Duty data miners (Visceral and VondyisPog), who have previously reported accurate information about the franchise. However, this time, things were different, with both accounts reporting on two supposed Call of Duty projects named "Anvil" and "Devilwood" — details that couldn’t have been obtained from datamining. This is partly because the titles are so far out that they wouldn’t be within the files, but mostly because they are not real. According to the "leaks," Anvil was an Infinity Ward title based on Ghosts, and Devilwood was a Sledgehammer title based on Advanced Warfare. While it wouldn’t be surprising to see Infinity Ward tackle CoD 2026 and Sledgehammer 2027 (which is the current plan and, to be honest, pretty predictable), the details of the games are not accurate. While things can certainly change, getting codenames wrong in the first place makes me question how the information was obtained and to what extent it was verified.

I'm feeling a bit tired of games like RDR2 and Cyberpunk. Just to give you an idea, my favorite AAA developers are Fromsoft and Team Ninja. I'm not really into games that are so obscure or niche that they're only good for the sake of being different or nostalgic. Something in between a widely regarded top-tier indie game and a hidden gem sounds about right.

Here are some recent games I've found and loved that fit this criteria:

- Slay The Spire
- Outer Wilds
- OneShot
- Disco Elysium
- SOMA (not sure if it counts as AAA)

Playing Alien Isolation is incredibly stressful! Even when I walk as slowly as possible and frequently check my tracker to see if the alien is around, it still shows up unexpectedly. I have my flamethrower out, but it’s useless in small spaces because the alien is so quick. Despite the challenges, I still enjoy the experience because it's rare for players to feel this defenseless and have to be so careful about what to do next.

• According to Bloomberg, Square Enix president Takashi Kiryu said at a meeting with investors that Final Fantasy XVI, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and Foamstars fell short of the company's expectations.
• Final Fantasy XVI's launch sales were within expectations, but they slowed down and the game ended up falling short of its full fiscal year forecast. The actual print run has not been named.
• Square Enix did not share the sales of the recent Final Fantasy VII Rebirth either, but they were immediately below the company's projections. The same applies to the multiplayer shooter Foamstars.
