http://www.pcgamer.com/the-action-rpg-nox-is-now-free-on-origin/

The Westwood-developed action-RPG Nox is a pretty old game, released all the way back in 2000, but it was a pretty good one by most accounts. And if it didn't set the world on fire, that may be in part because Westwood's star was already well in decline by then, and also because of the release of Diablo 2 a few months later, which very much did set the world on fire. So you may have missed it. But now it's free on Origin, which makes this a fine time to get caught up.

Verticality is all the rage in first-person shooters, as it bloody well should be. Overwatch, Titanfall, the last handful of Call of Duty games... they all let you demolish enemies from on high, but LawBreakers seems to be taking the theme further. As Tyler noted in his hands-on preview last month, you can actually glide through the maps at high speed. These new videos serve to further demonstrate that.

The Elder Scrolls Online is expanding today, with the release of The Dark Brotherhood DLC pack. As the name suggests, you'll be allowed to join the Dark Brotherhood, who – judging by the below launch video – just love to stab people in the back! The video is pretty much just a stream of various clueless, innocent bystanders copping knives in the back. It's relentless.
