SALES & DEALS

Monster Hunter World has sold 10.9 million copies worldwide, half of it possibly coming from the PC
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/monster-hunter-world-has-sold-10-million-copies-worldwide-half-of-it-possibly-coming-from-the-pc/
Capcom has announced that Monster Hunter World has sold 10.9 million copies worldwide. This information comes from the official FAQ that can be found on the company’s Japanese website as well as the company’s latest fiscal report, and as it’s pointed out, about 70% of the total was sold abroad.
Now what’s really interesting here is that according to Steamspy, the game has sold between 5 and 10 million copies on the PC. The free version of Steamspy does not provide any accurate numbers, however it’s possible that the game has sold at least 5 million copies on the PC, meaning that half of its worldwide sales are coming from our platform. Since Steamspy does not provide any accurate numbers, we suggest taking this with a grain of salt though.
>> If true, that almost guarantees that future games of the franchise will launch on PC too.

Earlier this month, Square Enix released a major patch for Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age. This patch added more framerate options, added three (Low, Medium, High) pre-set graphic settings to choose from and brought some control improvements. Unfortunately, though, this patch also broke compatibility with the Orchestra Overhaul mod.
The team behind this mod has been working on a new version that would be compatible with the game’s latest version and we are happy to report that this new version is now available for download.
>> Available from Steam.

First Soul Calibur VI nude mod released for all male and female, custom or original, characters
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/first-soul-calibur-vi-nude-mod-released-for-all-male-and-female-custom-or-original-characters/
Modder ‘Sakura4’ has released the first proper nude mod for SoulCalibur 6. While an earlier mod allowed players to create custom naked characters, it did not have any affect on the original cast. However, this nude mod can be used for both custom and original characters, and there are currently separate versions for male and female characters.
According to the modder, this mod will allow you to play as a nude character that will be only visible to yourself. This basically means that other players when playing online will not see your character naked. However, and as we’ve always stated regarding mods in online games, we strongly suggest disabling it and using it only in offline mode.
>> Well, it was bound to happen, right? As always with nude mods, no links were provided, but the mod is available from Nexus Mods.

Old-school FPS fans, here is something interesting for you today. Night Dive Studios has shared an image on its official Facebook page, possibly teasing a Blood Remaster.
