The new War Sails DLC for Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord has been very well-received, with some fans already calling it a contender for the best expansion of the year. While it does require a slightly more powerful computer than the base game, you don’t need top-of-the-line hardware to enjoy the naval combat. The biggest requirement is time, which many players don’t have. To address this, TaleWorlds included a ‘Fast Mode,’ although how to enable it isn’t immediately clear.

The announcement of Beyond Good & Evil’s return at UbiDays 2008 and the first look at the sequel at E3 2017 generated huge excitement. Subsequent events continued to build anticipation, suggesting that despite a long wait, Ubisoft was committed to bringing back this beloved, yet often overlooked, game.

After more than 20 years, Kirby Air Riders is back with improvements that keep the original’s simple gameplay intact. It offers a more complete experience for both new players and longtime fans looking for a racing game that doesn’t try to imitate Mario Kart. The game also proves that Kirby games don’t need complex features to be enjoyable.

The first episodes of Stranger Things season 5 premiered on November 26th, and a new, enigmatic character named Mr. Whatsit was introduced. Viewers first encounter him as the imaginary friend of Holly Wheeler, who gets in trouble at school for talking to him.

Okay, so Carol Sturka really ruffled the hive mind’s feathers at the end of Pluribus Episode 4. They were so annoyed they basically ghosted her! That means in Episode 5, I mostly watched her flying around all by herself, doing her own thing.

Stranger Things has introduced us to a fantastic group of characters we love, and some truly scary monsters that have captured our imaginations—and given us nightmares!
