Ahead of its December 10 release that is definitely still happening, CD Projekt Red has unloaded a whole new set of updated PC requirements for Cyberpunk 2077 that detail the bare minimum needed to get it running, and which family members you’d need to sell to the organ as spare livestock feed to get the game running on ultra settings.

They came. They saw. They wiped out a lot. But in the end, one team managed to conquer Destiny 2’s new endgame activity for the Beyond Light expansion in blisteringly quick time. Raids have always been Destiny 2’s greatest challenge, lengthy adventures wherein a fireteam of six Guardians descend into peril and have to use tight teamwork to survive the danger ahead of them. More than just a shooting gallery, every part of a raid is also home to devious puzzles and the Deep Stone Crypt was no exception.

There are still those who are willing to get up at the crack of dusk and boot up their console to find him for you. People who’ll risk digital life and limb to let you know if Xur is selling a treasure or rubbish. I just so happen to be one of those people. Maybe you’re stuck at work and can only log in later tonight. In that case: Where is Xur?

Oh right, Marvel’s Avengers is still a thing. While the Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics game has been seen as Anthem 2.0 since it was released, new content is still on the way for the beleagured live service title. The introduction of Kate Bishop AKA Best Hawkeye™ and new missions in Operation Taking AIM will drop into the game on December 8.

In the final Night City Wire episode, and pretty much doubling down on the December 10 release date, CD Project Red dropped some breathtaking news: You’ll be able to play as Johnny Silverhand. Portrayed by everyone’s favourite actor and all around good dude Keanu Reeves, footage from the new trailer showed off segments where players can engage in gameplay sequences that allow them to relive Silverhand’s memories from his perspective.

Call of Duty: Black Ops: Cold War is exactly what you expect it to be, but there is a massive amount of content on offer here and it's still impressive. Maybe the magic is starting to slip now, but if you've not picked up a Call of Duty recently then grab this one, there's still some fun to be had.

Some games are lined up for multiple awards, such as the superb Hades, the spectacular Ghost of Tsushima, and my favourite golf game, The Last of Us Part II. This year’s breakout hits also include Fall Guys and Among Us, and there’s nothing sus about that. Here’s the full list of nominees for the show, which will be livestreamed on December 10.

Whenever something is added to Bungie’s sprawling cosmic sandbox, something else inevitably breaks, usually to hilarious effect. Players are quick to pounce on exploits in Destiny 2, and now that the Beyond Light expansion has launched they’ve discovered the biggest one yet. One of the major new additions from the expansion is a new Guardian subclass that uses Stasis energy to create a different experience.
