Monster Hunter Wilds wouldn’t be complete without a flagship monster. Guardian Arkveld is a central piece in the main story, and a recurring face to smack that presents a challenge each time. While you’ll get a taste of the fight before the actual confrontation, you should prepare accordingly, learning what to expect and how to...

The culmination of Monster Hunter Wilds is at the hands of Zoh Shia. This monster is the definition of a final boss, and a fitting end to the Low Rank section of Capcom’s latest entry in the hunting series. It’s a spectacle that towers over the likes of Jin Dahaad in scale, and one you...

One day after X went down for hours, security researchers are throwing cold water on Elon Musk’s public comments about who might be behind the DDoS attack. On Monday, as X was still struggling to remain online, Musk said in a post that the site had been brought down by a “massive cyberattack” executed by “a large, coordinated group and/or a country.” Later that day, in an interview with Fox News, he said the attack involved "IP addresses originating in the Ukraine area." He never provided eviden...

Square Enix is planning to celebrate the groundbreaking game in style!

Electric vehicle company Rivian is rolling out new software today. The lead feature is Enhanced Highway Assist, which controls steering, acceleration, and braking on compatible highways. It relies on an infrared camera in the rearview mirror to ensure that the driver is still paying attention to the road, even though their hands don't need to be on the wheel. This resource is only rolling out to Rivian's Gen 2 vehicles; the blog post did not address whether it would also come to Gen 1. There's a...

In a rare recent example of a product becoming more affordable (rather than moving full-speed in the opposite direction), the popular podcast service Pocket Casts no longer requires a subscription to access its web player and desktop apps. Although the premium tiers are still there for some paywalled features, the only platforms where you can't listen for free are now smartwatches without a paired phone — a niche within a niche, if ever there was one. Before Tuesday's announcement, you could lis...

After installing iOS 18.3.2, iPhone users have noticed that ‌Apple Intelligence‌ is automatically turned on, regardless of whether it was turned off prior to the update being installed. There is an ‌Apple Intelligence‌ splash screen that comes up after updatin...

Turn the glow off for a glow up.

Out today on Switch. Today marks the release of Beyond the Ice Palace 2, and no, you're not imagining things — this is a sequel the 1988 Amiga, Commodore 64, and ZX Spectrum platformer. Taking the shape of a Soulslike Metroidvania, Beyond the Ice Palace 2 sees you take up the chains of the Cursed King who has broken from from imprisonment. Touting some brutally difficult combat and platforming and some excellent pixel art, it takes the classic formula established 37 years ago and brings it up to...

ZA/UM Studio, the company behind Disco Elysium, just announced a new game called Project [C4]. It’s being described as a “genre-defining RPG” and there’s a teaser trailer that’s light on gameplay but heavy on disturbing imagery. Based on the trailer, we still don’t know if the game will pull mechanics or visuals from the highly-regarded Disco Elysium. A press release did note that folks would play as a spy of some kind and suggested that the game could actually, in part, take place in the human ...

The iOS 18.3.2, iPadOS 18.3.2, macOS Sequoia 15.3.2, and visionOS 2.3.2 updates that Apple released today include an important security fix for a WebKit vulnerability that may have been actively exploited. In Apple's security notes for each update, Apple says that maliciously crafted web content could break out of the Web Content sandbox. Most of the issue was addressed with iOS 17.2, but Apple has added an additional supplementary fix in today's updates. Apple says that it is aware of a report ...

You know how Epic Games added shoes to Fortnite last year? With Kicks, you can put Jordans on Zuko or slippers on Darth Vader. It only makes sense that Epic Games added Crocs — the “squishy orthopedic shoe,” as Vox put it — to the game. So yeah, if you ever wanted to see Crocs...

No Rest for the Wicked is one of the most stunning and slick Diablo-like RPGs around, but its early access journey has been littered with pot holes - the biggest being the sale of Private Division, the Take-Two-owned label that was publishing the game. However, after a fairly long period of silence, Moon Studios (which has also created the beloved Ori games) has revealed two big bits of news - the first is that it has acquired the rights to No Rest of the Wicked and is now fully independent, and...

The Waymo One service will soon be available in more of the San Francisco Bay Area, specifically Mountain View, Los Altos, Palo Alto and parts of Sunnyvale. The company spent several years testing its self-driving cars in Mountain View, the city where its headquarters is located. According to TechCrunch, Waymo One will be available across 27 square miles of Silicon Valley, in addition to the 55 square miles it covers elsewhere in the Bay Ar...

After announcing that some Apple Intelligence Siri features promised for iOS 18 will be delayed, Apple has tweaked the wording on its ‌iOS 18‌, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia webpages to remove mentions of the Siri capabilities that are being pushed back. There is a section called "The start of a new era for ‌Siri‌," that previously suggested ‌Siri‌ was more capable and helpful than ever thanks to personal context, a feature that is not yet available. Now the wording has been updated to point out ...

It's the second year running Blizzard's event hasn't happened.

The original Ninja Creami became a viral hit a few years ago when it took the tech from $5,000 commercial ice cream makers and distilled it into something you could buy for less than $200. As good as the Creami is at whipping up sorbets, gelatos and smoothie bowls, there’s still one classic frozen treat it can’t do: soft serve. But now there’s a new addition to the family, the Swirl by Creami, and with it Ninja may have just created the ultimate all-in-one home ice cream machine. Design and feat...

Be honest: How often do you read a book inside of a role-playing game? Today, I bring you a fictional video game book so clever and fun that you can (and should) read it outside of its game. I’ve included my favorite excerpt below. But first, let me just say, to folks who toss their...

Ars Technica's Andrew Cunningham today published his review of the new Mac Studio. In it, he confirmed that the Mac Studio with the M4 Max chip lacks High Power Mode for intensive workloads. He also tested the higher-end Mac Studio with the M3 Ultra chip, and he did not mention anything about High Power Mode for that model either. Mac Studio review units are running macOS Sequoia 15.3, according to the Geekbench database. macOS Sequoia 15.4 is currently in beta testing, but it is unclear if that...
