Genshin Impact’s developer, Global interactive entertainment, and the publishers, miHoYo just announced the game’s Version 1.5 “Beneath the Light of Jadeite” update. The announcement comes with new plot, characters, and PS5 features. You’ll get to dig further into Liyue’s history, meet Eula and Yanfei, face new foes, and custom your own realm in Teyyat. The best part? You won’t be waiting long. The patch will be out by the end of this month on April 28.

Genshin Impact is a free-to-play open-world action RPG that’s set in the world of Teyvat. You play as a traveler setting out looking for your lost sibling. Along the way, you uncover secrets, fight monsters, and encounter friends. So far, only two of the seven major cities in Teyyat are accessible. But, with this new upcoming patch, comes new cities, stories, characters, and seasonal events.

Continue where you left off

This new patch comes with more quest installments. You get to progress in Zhongli’s second installment of his story quest, Noelle’s story quest, and Diona’s (the popular bartender of The Cat’s Tail) new series of Hangout Events.

Two new playable characters

Eula and Yanfei are getting added to the game. Five-star character, Eula, is the Spindrift Knight and Captain of the Knights of Favonius Reconnaissance Company. Meanwhile, Yanfei is a four-star Pyro-using catalyst wielder.

New enemies

Two new formidable enemies will also be found in Version 1.5: Azhdaha the “Lord of Vishaps,” and Cryo Hypostasis. The Trounce Domain opponent, Azhdaha, will offer rare rewards once a week for travelers who manage to conquer his attacks. While, the Cryo Hypostasis will be added to Dragonspire as its new Boss Enemy. Just like other enemies in the Hypostasis series, the Cryo Hypostasis has a unique pattern of attack. And once defeated, provides resources like Character Level-Up Materials.

New home

With Version 1.5, you get to finally find a home away from home in Teyvat. This customizable space is accessible with the Serenitea Pot. Created by Liyue’s adepti, the special teapot conceals an entire realm inside. There, you can build and decorate your home however you like.

Game mechanic updates

In this new update, the cost of claiming the first three Trounce Domain rewards per week will be halved. Meanwhile, doubling the amount of Companionship EXP earned in Co-Op Mode.

The third city soon to come

Fans get teased with concept art of the new city, Inazuma. But, both developers and publishers hope you stay tuned for its official release.

Genshin Impact is available on PS4, PS5 Android, iOS, and on PC for free.

Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen to launch on October 9

A massive expansion and a two-phase roadmap revealed

Published

GadgetMatch

Capcom has officially announced Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen, a massive new expansion slated to launch on October 9.

Arriving as a complete bundle, the title will mark the franchise’s highly anticipated debut on the Nintendo Switch 2, while simultaneously launching as separate expansion DLC for players on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.

The Dark Arisen expansion aims to enrich the base game’s dynamic fantasy world with three goals in mind: enhanced gameplay, expanded adventures, and enticing value.

Update roadmap underway

To prepare the realm for the expansion, Capcom has laid out a comprehensive, two-phase update roadmap for the base game:

Title Update 3.1: Focuses heavily on immediate quality-of-life improvements, most notably more significantly accessible map traversal through highly requested Eternal Ferrystone.
Title Update 3.2: Shifts focus toward system and engine adjustments; patch will deliver crucial performance and frame rate improvements, introduce additional save slots, implement system-level save adjustments, alter Dragonsplague mechanics, and further refine pawn and enemy actions.

Three major additions coming

When the expansion officially drops in October, players will be able to dive into a wealth of brand-new content built to push the Arisen to their limits:

Forsaken Dominion: Players will travel to Norgan, a frozen, long-abandoned northern region of Vermund blanketed in heavy snow. Home to savage hordes and creatures of immense power, the Arisen must team up with an enigmatic figure named Eir to uncover the dark secrets of an undying Fallen Dragon.
The Relic System: Defeating monsters and exploring the icy wastes of Norgan will yield powerful, hidden spoils of war known as relics. Taking these back to the Norgandian Settlement for appraisal unlocks high-tier gear boasting enhanced offensive and defensive capabilities.
Lost Rites Dungeons: For those looking to truly test their mettle, the expansion introduces 12 unique dungeon challenges. Overseen by the Pathfinder, these trials task players with clearing deadly gauntlets to reclaim legendary, dormant treasures once wielded by past Arisens.

The robust character creator is also receiving an update with a fresh wave of hairstyles and tattoos via Meszeteres Cosmetics, giving players even more ways to personalize their Arisen and Main Pawn.

Pre-order bonuses and editions

Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen will be available in both digital and physical formats. The standalone Switch 2 release will include both the base game and expansion content right out of the box, while existing owners on PS5, Xbox, and PC can simply purchase the separate expansion DLC.

Players who pre-order the digital version or secure an early physical copy will receive the Explorer’s Camping Kit, the Dragon’s Dogma Music & Sound Collection, and the exclusive Norgan Fashion Set: Northern Attire.

Capcom’s critically acclaimed, award-winning stylish action masterpiece, Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition, is headed to Nintendo Switch 2.

The video game company has made quite the splash with its Nintendo Direct announcements, and the title will officially be on Nintendo’s next-generation handheld console.

This officially brings the definitive version of the demon-slaying epic to a Nintendo platform for the first time.

The Digital Version is set to launch in Southeast Asia on June 23, complete with an introductory discount. The Physical Package Version, meanwhile, will follow later this summer on August 28.

Uncompromised action anywhere

Capcom is promising the ultimate handheld experience with this release. Players can expect high-octane, demon-slaying action at an uncompromised 60fps frame rate.

That’s whether docked on your television or played in Handheld Mode on the go.

The definitive content bundle

In addition, the game also comes with an all-inclusive package right out of the gate — no separate purchases required.

The edition comes completely packed with extra character costumes, weapon variants, and the fully playable Vergil DLC.

Here is a breakdown of the massive bundle of content included in the base game:

Playable Character Vergil: Take control of Dante’s twin brother and greatest rival, utilizing his iconic Yamato blade with an entirely distinct, lightning-fast combat style.
5 Devil Breakers & Weapon Variants: Expands Nero’s arsenal alongside the Cavaliere R weapon variant for Dante.
EX Color Pack: Unlocks alternate costume colors for Nero, Dante, Lady, Nico, and Trish.
DMC1-4 Battle Track 12-Pack: Customize your combat background music with classic tunes from across franchise history.
Deluxe Additions: Includes Alternate Style Rank Announcers, Alternate Title Calls, and behind-the-scenes Live-Action Cutscenes.

Master four distinct combat styles

The Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition narrative takes place several years after the Order of the Sword incident. It tracks a massive demonic invasion that forces humanity’s best defenders to join forces.

Players can swap between four distinct playable characters, each offering entirely different mechanical depth:

Nero: The young devil hunter fights using his turbo-charged “Red Queen” sword, the “Blue Rose” revolver, and weaponized “Devil Breaker” prosthetic arms that can pull enemies close with the Wire Snatch ability.
Dante: The legendary half-human, half-demon hybrid seamlessly cycles through swords, dual pistols, gauntlets, and a weaponized motorcycle, with the ability to trigger a powerful demon form.
V: A mysterious, tattooed man who commands three demonic familiars—Shadow, Griffon, and Nightmare—to inflict damage from afar before finishing foes off with his cane.
Vergil: Master of the mystical sword Yamato, his gameplay relies on overwhelming speed, rapid strikes, and his own devastating Devil Trigger transformation.

Nintendo officially announces Ocarina of Time remake

Coming in 2026.

Published

There are a few titles that an overwheling majority of gamers consider as an absolute must-play for other gamers. One of those titles is The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Originally launched for the Nintendo 64, it’s not easy to play the iconic game today. But, later this year, the game is about to get much more accessible. Nintendo has officially announced a remake of Ocarina of Time.

Modern gamers might not realize the effect of the original Ocarina of Time on the RPG genre. Besides adding a third dimension to the then-fledgling Legend of Zelda series, the 1998 game also revolutionized the gaming world by popularizing targeting systems. That, and the refining of the formula in Majora’s Mask, makes Ocarina an essential in gaming history.

During today’s Nintendo Direct, the company capped off the hour-long presentations by announcing a remake of the game. Though the short, short trailer didn’t reveal any gameplay, it did confirm that the remake will retain the original’s more whimsical art style, as opposed to the realism put forth by the Breath of the Wild duology.

It’s not the first re-release for the game, though. In the past, Nintendo released remastered versions of the game for the GameCube and the 3DS. This is, however, the first official remake of the title for a much more modern system.

We didn’t know when the remake will officially launch, but it’s coming out within this year.
