Minecraft has always been relatively light on its core ‘story,’ leaving players to fill in the blanks with lore theories and speculation. By comparison, spiritual successor turned rival Hytale is already shaping up to offer a little more definition out of the gate, even in its early access stage. But while Hypixel founder Simon Collins-Laflamme says the team is “not going deep on narrative for early access”, he does tease that we’ll be getting a series of story chapters that unfold a tale where you’ll be forced to make “difficult choices” that can leave a lasting impression on the world…

All of us at Maison Bap are super thankful for the overwhelming support we’ve had from you all!”Reaching half-a-million copies sold…

Apes, anacondas, and now, one of the most deadly animals pound-for-pound, the hippopotamus – that’s the current horror movie creature feature escalation as the first look at Hungry has arrived, seen above.Hungry is all about a group of friends who come face-to-face with a raging hippo which is somehow stalking the bayou rather than its native habitat of the rivers and estuaries of Africa.

What are the Nioh 3 missions? The fate of Japan hangs in the balance, but there’s always time for a quick side quest – especially when rare loot is on the line.

In our experience, it’s easy to wander into a main mission underleveled or miss sidequests that reward powerful gear for the…
