Nier: Automata is one of those games where the legend keeps growing, and deservedly so. The series began with a flawed 2010 RPG that seemed destined for obscurity, before publisher Square Enix made the wise decision to co-develop sequel Nier: Automata with action specialists PlatinumGames. What resulted remains unique in its looping structure, top-tier customisable combat, unforgettable vistas, and the immaculate vibes at the world's end.
Nier: Automata recently celebrated the seventh anniversary of its Japanese release, and Platinum used the occasion to announce a new sales milestone, and share a bunch of new art from the studio's staff:
"Released in Japan on 23 February 2017, NieR:Automata celebrates its 7th anniversary with the amazing news that it has sold a whopping 8 million copies across the globe!"

Modder ‘radiclown’ has released a new amazing mod for Starfield that brings to it a lot of characters and aliens from the Star Wars universe. This is a must-have for all Star Wars fans out there. So, be sure to download it.
Going into more details, this mod adds several fully animated aliens from Star Wars to the various factions of Starfield. Moreover, it adds alien character presets, new hairs, tattoos, and skin tones. So, not only will you encounter Star Wars NPCs, but you can also make your own character look like Ahsoka or Darth Maul.
Do note that this mod may not be compatible with the Mandalorian Mod or the Galactic Civil War Conversion. So, if you use them, you might want to skip this one. Or you can try it and see if there are any conflicts between them.

Nintendo is suing the creators of the Nintendo Switch emulator, Yuzu
https://www.dsogaming.com/pc-performance-analyses/nintendo-is-suing-the-creators-of-the-nintendo-switch-emulator-yuzu/
Nintendo has sued the creators of the Yuzu emulator. According to the big “N”, the emulator breaks their game protection and helps with piracy. To be honest, this is quite laughable. But no, this isn’t an out-of-season April’s Fools joke. Nintendo has indeed taken legal action against them.
Nintendo seeks damages for alleged violations and a shutdown of the emulator. And if the big “N” wins this case, this could be catastrophic for the console emulation scene.

Behold Epic’s Classic FPS Unreal With RTX Remix Path Tracing, Running in 4K on NVIDIA Geforce RTX 4080
https://www.dsogaming.com/pc-performance-analyses/ureal-rtx-remix-path-tracing-4k-nvidia-geforce-rtx-4080/
Yesterday, we informed you about an RTX Remix Mod for the first Unreal Tournament game. And, from the looks of it, people have figured out a way to load maps from the first single-player Unreal game.
Do note that this is a WIP Mod, and it does not fully support the first Unreal. Not only that but there are numerous graphical glitches and visual issues. For example, the reflections on the gun are glitching like crazy. Still, this is something cool that may interest some of our old-school FPS fans.
To make this RTX Remix Mod work with the first Unreal game, you’ll have to manually load a map into the UT Engine. In other words, you won’t be able to drop this mod into your Unreal folder and play it. After all, the mod right now only supports Unreal Tournament 99.
