However, now, as you’ll see below the pool of the best extraction shooters on pc is thankfully deeper, wider, and warmer. The genre has a couple of defining traits: you need to “extract” – leave, basically – at the end of a run to secure everything you’ve gathered so you can add it to your permanent stash, and if you die you lose what you’re carrying. But beyond that it’s surprisingly flexible, and even some of these core pillars are now being challenged. You’ll find…

Resident Evil Requiem’s ‘Speed Demon’ achievement is quite the task. A few of my friends have been whittling their times down since Capcom’s latest dropped, with only one so far managing to squeak beneath the threshold.

It may not be winning awards for being one of the best RPGs, but a fantasy-style Just Cause-esque sandbox world? Sign me up, and if you’re waiting for a sale, why not try your luck with Fanatical’s Mystery Star Bundle, get some cheap Steam keys, and potentially, a copy of Crismon Desert – or perhaps another triple-A game, if you’re lucky. Crimson…
