This game takes the best parts of the first one, simplifies them, and then adds new and improved features for a better overall experience.

Recently, players have been focusing on whether ARC Raiders should include a mode just for playing against the environment, without player-versus-player combat. Many are asking for this to make the game more accessible, avoid frustrating fights with other players, or simply enjoy a more relaxed experience. However, other players strongly believe that player-versus-player combat is essential to the game’s identity. While it’s a complex issue, adding a PvE-only mode could fundamentally change what ARC Raiders is all about and ultimately isn’t the right direction for the game.

I’ve played a ton of action RPGs, and they always have you as the main hero, sword swinging and battling monsters. But I’ve always wondered, what if I could play as the helper instead? It’s weird because nobody really lets you be a dedicated healer or support character! Even when there is healing, it usually just helps you survive, or it’s tied to how much damage you do. And if a game does let you support others, you’re usually controlling the whole party yourself. I get why it hasn’t been done, but it feels like such a cool idea that the genre keeps overlooking!

Here’s a ranked list of the best shows on Paramount+ in 2025, including both popular spin-offs and brand-new, highly-rated series.

You can now stream the psychological thriller Disturbia on Paramount+ as of December 1st. The film, directed by D.J. Caruso and written by Christopher Landon and Carl Ellsworth, follows Kale Brecht, a high school student on house arrest who suspects his neighbor is a serial killer. Starring Shia LaBeouf alongside David Morse, Sarah Roemer, and Carrie-Anne Moss, Disturbia was a critical and commercial success, earning over $118 million on a $20 million budget and receiving scores of 69% from critics and 77% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes. Despite its success, it’s often considered an underrated gem.

“Age of Revelation” hasn’t resonated with many readers, leading some to stop buying the X-Men comics. Its clear inspiration from the beloved “Age of Apocalypse” storyline hasn’t helped either. While “Age of Apocalypse” was a huge success with many excellent issues, “Age of Revelation” just doesn’t have the same impact after three decades. Technically, this issue isn’t flawed; writer Jed MacKay does a solid job with the pacing and characterizations, and there are some enjoyable scenes. The issue’s problem isn’t the quality of the writing itself.

The developers of River City Ransom: Underground recently announced some unfortunate news: the game will be removed from Steam because of an issue with its licensing. While the removal process has started, the game is still available to buy for now. If you’ve been wanting to play this 2017 revival of the classic series, it’s best to get it soon.

For the past few years, writer Steve Orlando has been successfully developing the Scarlet Witch character. Traditionally, Scarlet Witch stories have fallen into predictable patterns – either portraying her as overwhelmingly powerful and prone to villainy, or defining her through her relationships with male characters. Orlando has broken away from these tropes, creating a more complex and empowering portrayal of Wanda. The first issue of Sorcerer Supreme continues this positive trend, and is one of the comic’s strengths. While Scarlet Witch becoming Sorceress Supreme wasn’t entirely unexpected – Marvel has been building towards this – the issue effectively explains why it’s a compelling development.
