Tenebrum in Crimson Desert is a boss fight of sorts against a sort of extradimensional blob of darkness that attacks you at the Scholarstone Institute after an experiment gone wrong. As the fight starts you’re taught to use Blinding Flash to identify weaknesses, but considering it just frames Tenebrum’s whole body, that’s hardly useful. Below I’ll explain what to do and how to beat this boss in Crimson Desert. How to beat Tenebrum in Crimson Desert To hurt Tenebrum and exploit its weakness, you need to get close and use the Force Palm ability on it in mid air. There…
It takes a lot to get me interested in anything tower-defensive these days, and I’m getting pretty grouchy about paper-based aesthetics, too, but “minimalist strategy game” Painted Kingdoms combines them to promising effect. It takes place in a living book, where each chapter is illustrated according to a different cultural heritage, extending from Europe to China. As a roving general-hero, your job is to build a settlement by filling in the blank pages with your magic brush, giving rise to both fortifications and lovely wild spaces. Then, you must fight off waves of badniks who threaten to set the paper…
With Pokémon Champions, director Masaaki Hoshino has a clear goal: to share his passion for competitive Pokémon battles with the world.“I really want to take this element of the series, Pokémon battles, something that sticks around forever,” he told VGC during an interview at February’s Pokémon European International Championships. “Many people have played Pokémon games, they’ve played Pokémon battles, but haven’t really gotten into the PVP side, playing against other players. With this game, I hope to expand that accessibility to make it something that anyone can jump in and enjoy.”The Championships are an appropriate venue for our conversation and…
The Belkin Charging Case remained at the top spot of our best Switch 2 cases guide for months as it helped fight back against my biggest issue with the handheld – its awful battery life. The interior of the case is hollowed out to fit an integrated 10,000mAh powerbank, which lets you charge up your Switch 2 between gaming sessions, and I was obsessed until the new “Pro” model came around.This new version transforms the powerbank into a charging display stand, but that design change comes at a $99.99 MSRP. That’s why I was happy to see the older Belkin…
Slay the Spire 2’s multiplayer component is a lovely, sociable game of tactical chemistry and unity in the face of hideous door-based lifeforms, but inevitably, the modders are trying to ruin the bonhomie by adding PvP. Created by Maimun, SlayThePlayer is a Slay the Spire 2 mod that spices up co-op runs by swapping the act bosses for versus battles. “Two players start a co-op run on the same seed, navigate their own independent maps, and fight each other at every act boss,” explains the description. “Best of 3 acts wins.” It comes with specially commissioned art for a Versus…
As is tradition, Valve has just unleashed one of its biggest Dota 2 updates in a while right on the cusp of a major tournament climax. With the group stages of ESL One Birmingham 2026 drawing to a close today, and the playoffs running this weekend, the developer has dropped the fittingly massive Dota 2 patch 7.41 right on our heads. The removal of Facets, a dramatic overhaul to Innate abilities, new hero spells, more items, extra siege creeps, and map changes abound. This is a big one, so let’s take a look at the main talking points. The Dota…
Sony and Honda have announced that they are abandoning development on its Afeela electric vehicle.The car was part of Sony Honda Mobility, a joint venture established in 2021, and was originally set to release in 2025 where it would be built around a “premium entertainment experience”.A number of features announced for Afeela were based on Sony’s PlayStation products and IP, to the extent that when a prototype was revealed in January 2024 it was driven onto the stage using a DualSense controller.Last year it was announced that Afeela would be the first car to offer PlayStation Remote Play, allowing passengers…
Amazon may be breaking out its “Big Spring Sale,” but honestly, you’re far better off grabbing your Pokemon cards elsewhere. Although it’s worth starting with the caveat that all new releases for one of the best card games are overpriced, the most tempting offers I’ve found haven’t been at the mega retailer.To be precise, the best prices I’ve tracked down for Perfect Order (the upcoming set that launches in just a few days) have been at Miniature Market, and it’s not even close. While we’re still battling cost hikes here, it’s less wince-inducing than I’ve seen elsewhere. In much the…
The new Steam Machine remains an almost tragically distant prospect, despite Valve’s attempts at reassurance. But y’ know what the next best thing is? Not caring about hardware release dates, obviously. The second next best thing is to equip a Steam Deck with Ugreen’s handy 9-in-1 docking station, which is down from $60 to $40 in the Amazon US Spring Sale – and isn’t all that expensive in the UK either.
