Games

Long wait times to get into the game were expected with such a big launch. However, many players are frustrated by not being able to start *Battlefield 6* at all, especially since over half a million people are already trying to play on Steam. If you’re having trouble, it’s worth trying some simple fixes first. Try restarting Steam and your computer, updating your graphics drivers, and verifying the game files. You can do this by right-clicking on *Battlefield 6* in your Steam Library, going to Properties, then Installed Files, and selecting ‘Verify integrity of game files’.

The crossover fighting game *Ys vs. Trails in the Sky: Alternative Saga*, originally a Japan-only release for the PlayStation Portable in 2010, is now available on today’s consoles and PCs. Cullen and I recently had a chance to play it, and you can find Cullen’s review here and my thoughts on the handheld and PC versions here. Check out the launch trailer below!

You can now preorder all of our new products! The Pizza Bundle will be available starting March 27th, and everything else featuring the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will ship on March 6th. These preorders are expected to sell quickly, so order what you want before it’s gone.

Many players are experiencing an “undefined error” when trying to play *Battlefield 6*. The problem happens after waiting in extremely long queues – sometimes with over 400,000 players ahead of them – and occurs on all platforms, including PC, PlayStation, and Xbox.

The PlayStation 5 has a fantastic library of games, from huge titles like Spider-Man 2 and God of War Ragnarok to indie hits like Hades, and impressive remakes. While there are likely even more great games than the 25 we’ve chosen, this list highlights the PS5 games everyone should experience.

We based our selections on both the quality of each game and its overall impact on the console. We’ve included remakes to welcome new players, but their ranking might differ from other lists because they may not have had the same initial impact. Now, let’s get straight to the games – we know you’re eager to see the list!

Lady Azshara is a powerful minion costing 5 mana, with 5 attack and 5 health. When played, she lets you choose to boost either Zin-Azshari or the Well of Eternity. Both of these locations are added to your deck when you play Lady Azshara, but you can only empower one—the other will be discarded. Zin-Azshari lets you summon a copy of a friendly minion, and empowering it with Lady Azshara doubles the stats of those copies. The Well of Eternity fills your hand with temporary spells, and if empowered, each spell will cast twice.

The issue didn’t happen all at once, and players are now seeing a slightly more optimistic error message, but we still don’t know what’s causing the problem or if impacted leagues can be fixed.

At press time, Battlefield 6 stands at more than 606,000 concurrent players on Steam.

Many online multiplayer games struggle with server capacity, meaning there isn’t enough room for all players. Before a game launches, developers and publishers need to carefully plan how many servers to rent or buy. Usually, they base this decision not on the initial peak of players, but on estimates of how many people will play the game on a typical day. Sometimes, these estimates are too low, as seen with the launch of Blue Protocol: Star Resonance. To manage high player numbers, the developers of Battlefield 6 implemented a waiting queue system.

The PS5 has seen incredible games, from huge titles like Spider-Man 2 and God of War Ragnarok, to indie hits like Hades, and fantastic remakes. There are likely even more great games than the 25 we’ve picked, but here are the ones we think everyone should experience.

We chose these games based on how good they are, and also on how much of an impact they’ve had on the PS5. We included remakes to introduce them to new players, though their ranking might differ from other lists because they didn’t necessarily generate the same buzz as their original releases. But enough from us – you’ve probably already jumped to the list!
