Kenly College features three wings, each with its own investigation that gives you access to newer areas deeper into the facilities. You can attempt them at any order, and all three will offer a different perspective on a story event that took place at the college....

Last week’s trio of free games are all gone, so tough luck for those who might have missed them. As always, be sure to claim the free games before 4pm BST on on Thursday. Killing Floor 2 is unquestionably the highlight this week. It’s fairly old, but remains relevant in 2022. We’ve been raving about it for six years now, and it continues to end up on our best co-op games list....

The new Hitman games represent a great deal of experimentation on the part of developer IO Interactive. The original game experimented with the seasonal release format, making it the studio’s first live game. Hitman 2 and the upcoming Hitman 3 expanded the live service, even if both games abandoned the seasonal release model the reboot introduced. Ahead of Hitman 3’s launch, we spoke with IO Interactive to learn more about what the studio learned from operating a live service element all those years, its approach to zaniness in Hitman 3 and more....

The news comes from a recent interview conducted by The Verge. According to the report, Logic has been streaming on Twitch since about 2015, and said, “I’m not this rapper guy, man, I’m just a nerd - I love video games.” “I’m blessed enough to have millions of fans and followers,” Logic told The Verge. “I’m going to bring new eyes to their service, they’re going to bring new money to my bank account, and - I’m just kidding....

It’s worth noting that this comes right off the heels of a recent update that brought the Glaivier, as well as a new region for players to explore, but which came with its own issues as surrounding a free express pass as well as ongoing troubles with bots alongside other ongoing issues. This has all led to an environment on the official forums, as well as other popular hubs for the game including the subreddit, filled with sour opinions towards the community managers working on the game....

It’s been a major issue too! Lost Ark, having already existed in Korea and Russia for some time prior to the western release, practically launched with a pre-existing botting ecosystem who had been sharpening their fangs on the aforementioned versions of the title. This botting problem has resulted in some frustrating side effects too, as a healthy real-money trading environment has been able to flourish thanks to the ample number of bots running around, farming content, and generating in-game wealth....

But it wasn’t enough. Lost Ark peaked at a staggering 1,325,305 players over the weekend, enough for queues to be increasingly long, with thousands of players stuck waiting their turn to play. Queues could last several hours. While this is great news for players who have yet to actually create a character and join the fun, it unfortunately means that those who do will not be able to enjoy cross-region gameplay with their friends on Central Europe servers....

The game whose developer describes it as a “cozy management game about dying” released to rave reviews in 2020 and featured regular free content updates that added more spirits to ferry to the afterlife and expanded the already expansive world of the game.

This is the equivalent of flying around the world over 40 thousand times. More is on the way for players, with new world updates, sim updates, and future themed DLC....

The third-party modding community has been slowly working on creating new Microsoft Flight Simulator aircrafts, airports and so many other things for the game’s growing simulation community. This is the case with any simulator that supports custom modules, but today’s creation is a little different from the few we’ve seen so far. DC Designs has unveiled (via Polygon) that it’s working on its very first project for Microsoft Flight Simulator: an F-15 Eagle add-on....

If Google’s decision to shutdown all internal Stadia development studios without making a single game seemed sudden, it was also that way for the people Google let go. A Kotaku report covering the last few days of Stadia’s dev teams revealed that just the week prior, Stadia GM and long-time games executive Phil Harrison told everyone in an email that “[Stadia Games and Entertainment] has made great progress building a diverse and talented team and establishing a strong lineup of Stadia exclusive games....

As you might expect, players wasted no time offering feedback about design changes they liked, didn’t like, and a few of the bugs and map exploits discovered thus far - even if many of those grievances return from Modern Warfare 2019 in a clear sign Infinity Ward doesn’t intend to change them. What the developer does actually want to do are a few tweaks in time for weekend two. In a blog post, Infinity Ward addressed several major points of feedback and whether or not they’ll be changed this weekend....

I’ve often found Call of Duty campaigns to be interesting simply for continuing to exist. They’re always lavish, technical showcases for a series fighting every year to stay relevant. For the teams making them, campaigns are a reminder that there’s more to Call of Duty than its air-sucking, conversation-dominating multiplayer. And even when they’re out of ideas, Call of Duty campaigns are consistently entertaining. Having finished it nearly twice already, however, I was consistently surprised by how much more it offered than I thought it would (and could!...
