Borderlands 3 has sold in 5 million copies; highest-selling title for 2K Games on PC in a five-day window
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/borderlands-3-has-sold-in-5-million-copies-highest-selling-title-for-2k-games-on-pc-in-a-five-day-window/
2K Games announced today that Borderlands 3, the latest entry to the renowned shooter-looter franchise, has achieved multiple record-setting milestones for both the series and label following its worldwide release on Friday, September 13th.
Within its first five days of launch, 50 percent more consumers purchased Borderlands 3 versus sales of Borderlands 2. Thus, Borderlands 3 is the fastest-selling title in 2K’s history. Moreover, it is the highest-selling title for the label on PC in a five-day window.
In addition, Borderlands 3 has sold-in more than 5 million units in its first five days. This leads the Borderlands franchise to generate more than $1 billion in Net Bookings and becoming the second franchise in 2K history to achieve this milestone.

GOG starts the week with three new sales:

Steam has two new daily deals, but only one is legit:

On the Humble Store, NECROPOLIS: BRUTAL EDITION is 75% off for the next roughly 26 hours: https://www.humblebundle.com/store/necropolis-brutal-edition

And at Fanatical, there are three new sales:

SOFTWARE & DRIVERS

Warner Bros and Funcom have removed Denuvo from Batman: Arkham Knight and Conan Unconquered
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/warner-bros-and-funcom-have-removed-denuvo-from-batman-arkham-knight-and-conan-unconquered/
Now here is something really interesting. Yesterday, we informed you about the free Batman giveaway on the Epic Games Store. And today, we are happy to report that Warner Bros has removed Denuvo from that particular version.
What this ultimately means is that the EGS version of Batman: Arkham Knight is the definitive version. Surprisingly enough, the Steam version of Batman: Arkham Knight still features Denuvo. Warner Bros has not stated why the Steam version still has the controversial anti-tamper tech.
Similarly, Funcom has removed the Denuvo anti-tamper tech from Conan Unconquered. Conan Unconquered is free to play this weekend on Steam, so this is good news for those that want to purchase it.
>> Hm... Did they fix the mess that was Arkham Knight at launch?

MODS/EMULATORS

First Nude mod released for Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/first-nude-mod-released-for-sekiro-shadows-die-twice/
Modder ‘ApolloHoo’ has released the first nude mod for Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. As its title suggests, this naked characters pack replaces the player’s model with naked body versions of Wolf, Emma and Genichiro.
Going into slightly more details, ApolloHoo used the naked 3D models from Dark Souls 3. As such, there are some slight visual inconsistencies. You can easily notice the new “body texture” by looking at the characters’ neck. Still, and since this is another game from the same developer, these body textures work pretty good.
In order to install it, you’ll have to first install “Mod Engine “. Then, you’ll have to downnload “DS3 and Bloodborne Material Pack “, and copy the “parts” folder from the “Naked Characters Pack” into your own mod folder.
What’s also interesting here is that this first nude mod for Sekiro lacks some… special details. For instance, there aren’t any nipples on Emma’s model, and her lower body area is not THAT detailed. Furthermore, Wolf is wearing an underwear. As such, this mod is actually SFW.

Resident Evil 2 Remake Ultimate Trainer brings FOV tool, Universal Key, Manual Flashlight and more
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/resident-evil-2-remake-ultimate-trainer-brings-fov-tool-universal-key-manual-flashlight-and-more/
Modder ‘Raz0r’ has released the most comprehensive trainer for Resident Evil 2 Remake. This trainer/mod allows you to change the FOV camera, introduces manual flashlight, and allows you to swap character/outfits.
Furthermore, this trainer can allow players to walk through walls, can disable recoil, and can increase both player health and speed. Naturally, this trainer also adds some “cheats” such as Invisibility, One Hit Kill, and Infinite Ammo.
It’s also worth noting that this mod allows to edit the Inventory/Item Editor and brings some HUD adjustments. It also brings a universal key mechanic, freezing game timers and game difficulty adjustments.
>> If you want it, Nexus Mods is the place to go.

Fallout 2287 – Nuclear Winter total overhaul mod transforms Fallout 4 into a frosty survival game
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/fallout-2287-nuclear-winter-total-overhaul-mod-transforms-fallout-4-into-a-frosty-survival-game/
Modder ‘D1v1ne122’ has released a new version of his must-have total overhaul mod for Fallout 4, Fallout 2287 – Nuclear Winter. This mod is for players that want to replay the game via some additional gameplay overhauls, or for those that want a completely different environment.
Fallout 2287 – Nuclear Winter pits the Sole Survivor against the bitter cold of Winter. This mod brings frosty aesthetics such as snow shaders, and visible breathing. Therefore, players will have to fight to stay warm with thick clothing and seek heat sources.
>> This mod is also available from Nexus Mods.

Get chased by Pennywise in this Resident Evil 2 Remake mod
https://www.pcgamer.com/get-chased-by-pennywise-in-this-resident-evil-2-remake-mod/
Mr. X sure gets a lot of makeovers. Resident Evil 2's lumbering monster has been given yet another horrifying new look, this time turning him into Pennywise the clown from the IT remakes. Check out the mod in action above.
Modder Marcos RC is responsible for this grinning nightmare, who looks right at home in his new job. Judging by the smile on his face, he's having a superb time. Though like Mr. X and Pennywise from the movies, he loses a lot of his menace when he gets close to you and starts throwing punches.
You can download the Pennywise mod from Marcos RC's Patreon (it's available to everyone), though I think this is one that I'll be skipping to save myself from the inevitable nightmares.

In order to celebrate Batman’s 80th birthday, Warner Bros Montreal tweeted an image with its logo. Now I’m pretty sure that some may thought that this was a tease for its new Batman game. And apparently, it was.

New Need for Speed Heat video showcases its extended vehicle customization system
https://www.dsogaming.com/videotrailer-news/new-need-for-speed-heat-video-showcases-its-extended-vehicle-customization-system/
Need for Speed Heat releases on November 8th and a new video surfaced today, showcasing its extended vehicle customization system. Thus, we strongly suggest watching this as it will give you a glimpse at how you can customize your car.

UPDATE: Apparently this video is from Need for Speed Payback and not from Need for Speed: Heat. The YouTuber did not clarify that, which is really misleading. Since we don’t have any access to the game (meaning that we don’t know how the customization menu looks like in Heat), we were also tricked by this video. Shame on us, obviously.
