🎮 PlayStation, Xbox, Multi-platformHere’s How To Play Halo: Campaign Evolved With Your Friends Across Xbox, PlayStation, And PC
With Halo: Campaign Evolved's early access period set to kick off on July 23(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/how-to-get-halo-campaign-evolved-early-access/), you may be wondering just how to enable cross-platform play so you and your fellow Spartans can kick grunt butt across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Well, the process is actually super simple, so let us break it down for you right here. As outlined in a July 22 blog on the Halo Waypoint site(https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/early-access-primer), playing this Halo remake with your friends is easy. All you have to do is know their Gamertag or Username, search for and add it to your Xbox friends list--either on the Xbox site, from the Xbox Game Bar, or in the Xbox mobile app--then add them to your party from the "Cross-Platform Friends" list of the "Play Co-op" menu when they're online. And just like that, you're playing Halo: Campaign Evolved(Campaign Evolved) with your friends on a platform other than an Xbox. Weird times we're living in, but it really is that simple. It's worth noting that you don't get immediate access to Halo: Campaign Evolved's early access just by buying the game. As is customary with these sorts of things, you’ll need to preorder the $70 Premium Edition to get into the early access pool. If you have preordered the $50 Standard Edition, you can upgrade to the Premium Edition to gain early access, but that will run your wallet $20, bringing the total to the Premium Edition price. And if you got it via Xbox Game Pass(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/is-halo-campaign-evolved-on-game-pass/), you can upgrade to the Premium Edition for $20. Preordering either version nets you the Foundry Armory Pack, which comes with legendary looks for Master Chief's iconic Mark V Mjolnir armor. Opting for the Premium Edition comes with some extra goodies, though, such as a digital artbook and short story, as well as the game manual and five additional Master Chief armor skins and six weapon skins. Halo: Campaign Evolved will launch on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S on July 28--and it's a day-one release on Xbox Game Pass(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/is-halo-campaign-evolved-on-game-pass/). Be sure to check out the release times(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/halo-campaign-evolved-release-date-and-global-launch-times-revealed/) so you can be ready for when the game officially comes out.
🖥 Xbox, PCMicrosoft is bringing original Xbox exclusives to PC for the first time, starting with four 'classic games'
Xbox Backward Compatibility on PC, as it's known, is now live.
🖥 PlayStation, Xbox, PCBest character builds in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
!(https://assetsio.gnwcdn.com/Verso-black-and-white.jpg?width=690&quality=85&format=jpg&auto=webp) Putting together Clair Obscur: Expedition 33(https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/games/clair-obscur-expedition-33) builds often feels overwhelming. Each character has access to skills that have so many different, potent combinations with other skills or other character builds, and that's not even getting into the hundreds of Pictos you can augment your setups with. For the most part, you can get through the main story and most optional bosses on normal mode without bothering to optimise builds, though some late-game foes will put this strategy to the test. Expedition 33's Expert mode is another matter entirely, though. Enemies frequently one-shot you there, and you'll need to stack the deck in your favour as often as possible. In this guide, we lay out two builds for the characters in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, covering offence, defence, support, and hybrids. Most of these builds work just fine on their own without needing a complementary build from a different character, though we've noted when some of them function better with a certain ally. We've also listed Pictos for each build and where to find them. Read more(https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/clair-obscur-expedition-33-best-builds)
🖥 Xbox, PC, MobileWinter Burrow lets you rebuild a cosy mouse home one knitted jumper at a time
Big-city mice do not usually get much sympathy from me, but Winter Burrow has been chipping away at that since it launched on Steam, Switch and Xbox Game Pass. Now it is heading to iOS and Android too, and the sweater-knitting has apparently followed it there. You play a mouse returning home after years away, only to find the old family burrow half collapsed and the Aunt who was meant to be looking after it nowhere to be found. So instead of settling in for a peaceful retirement, you are out gathering resources, patching up the place room by room, and trying to work out what actually happened to her. ...
