Watch the new DIRT 5 Career Mode Trailer

Codemasters today goes under the hood of DIRT 5 with a brand-new trailer focusing on its epic Career mode. With five chapters, over 130 events across nine race types and Throwdown challenges, DIRT 5’s high-octane off-road extravaganza will set pulses racing. DIRT 5 releases from 9 October on the current generation of Xbox and PlayStation consoles and Windows PC (via Steam). More information regarding the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 versions will follow.

DIRT 5’s Career mode focuses on the highly successful ‘DIRT Series’: a global racing event across various disciplines, featuring the world’s greatest off-road racers. The player starts their fledgling career going up against an established field. The line-up includes superstar and fan favourite, Alex ‘AJ’ Janiček and Bruno Durand, a veteran who quickly becomes the game’s antagonist. The rivalry between AJ and Bruno creates the opportunity for a new up-and-coming driver to make their mark and build their legacy in the sport.

DIRT 5 features a star-studded cast with the biggest names from gaming and motorsport culture. The iconic Troy Baker (AJ) and Nolan North (Bruno) voice the main characters. The career is tied together with the help of James Pumphrey and Nolan Sykes from racing enthusiasts and YouTube sensations, Donut Media. The entire story comes to life via the ‘DIRT Podcast by Donut Media’ featuring special guests including current W Series World Champion, Jamie Chadwick and YouTube star, SLAPTrain.

Career mode is divided into five chapters, offering multiple paths allowing players to choose the events they wish to play. The higher the finish, the more Stamps the player earns, which are needed to unlock the Main Event. The highly competitive final challenge is all that’s standing in the player’s way to proceed to the next chapter. Also dotted throughout are one-off Throwdown challenges. Once unlocked, players face the ultimate one-on-one challenge against a fierce competitor from the world circuit.

The world tour takes players across the globe from the US to China and beyond. With real-world global brands waiting to sign fresh talent, there are plenty of in-game rewards on offer based on performance and reputation rank. DIRT 5’s Career also allows for couch-play support for up to four players. This option is available for all multi-car challenges with additional drivers replacing Al-controlled vehicles. With the highest finishing position counting towards the player’s career, it’s a great way to boost Stamps and help players progress.
       
“DIRT 5’s Career underpins the entire experience and delivers a deeply immersive playground with player choice very much at the heart of it,” said Robert Karp, DIRT 5 Development Director at Codemasters. “The addition of Troy, Nolan and Donut Media has created a living, breathing world and one where the player wants to belong and compete. Whether they can rise to the Main Event and Throwdown challenges remains to be seen.”

Review: Beyond Blue

Review: Beyond Blue

It is not everyday where a video game that caught you by surprise and completely won you over has a mirror version of It with totally opposite gameplay and that game as well, takes you by surprise and totally wins you over. After playing MANEATER and becoming the worlds most powerful shark eating anything and everything that dared to move in or on my ocean, venturing under the se did not feel as exciting in any other game. Thankfully, there is more to experience under the sea than just finding food to become a giant shark and in a nice change of pace, I was happy to learn about life in the Ocean as much as I was to try and eat it all. It was time to dive back into the water with Beyond Blue and it was an incredible experience.

Beyond Blue manages to do something special treading the fine line of an educational game and being genuinely entertaining. Inspired by one of the most spectacular wildlife documentaries ever made in Blue Planet II, and that influence can clearly be seen in how Beyond Blue invites players into the world to explore it. Where Beyond Blue succeeds where other educational based experiences have failed before, is that it focuses on giving the player the freedom of time to do the exploration of the ocean world and whilst a lot of it is hand holding guidance such as completing set objectives in order to complete the dives, the player is not rushed to do so and as a result, Beyond Blue is easily one of the most relaxing games to play in 2020.

You play as Mirai, a marine biologist working with a team to research and develop technology to help track and trace ocean life to better understand them. The gameplay switches between 8 Dives where the player will have to complete objectives in order to complete that dive and Mirai herself, as we explore her own life in the narrative between dive sections. The main focus is of course on the dives themselves, as Mirai often live streams her adventures as she researches sea life including her tracking of a Pod of Whales, with the first dive revealing that a new female baby whale was born. Though guided, the fun of the dives for me has to be just swimming about looking at the vast ocean life and jus being in awe of the fantastic job the sound and visuals do to bring this strange world to life particularly with the sound because if you have a fairly decent headset, hearing all the animal sounds such as the clicking of Dolphins and the songs of the whales will completely relax you as you the wonder of it all washes over you.

Visually Beyond Blue is quite simply majestic and on my Xbox One X it was just breath-taking to not only see how the light from above the sea became true art when you looked at how it broke through the water but the level of detail in each creature is staggering when you swim up close just to take it all in. The animation of the sea life is phenomenal and I lost myself in seeing dolphins, whales and even schools of fish all swimming around me, scanning each one to catalogue them and through the objectives, learning so much about their behaviour which just felt more personal by controlling Mirai and hearing her reaction to it. Though it may never be as personal as actually diving yourself but the game does a superb job of being as immersive as possible to bring the player into this world.

Of course, it is the educational side that is really the strength to Beyond Blue and it does this is very clever ways. The dives themselves are close to “hands on” education as you can get as Mirai deploys and uses the technology available to conduct her research and to actually see the behaviour of how Ocean life lives is always incredible. But the game also has Insight Videos, short little films which are unlocked by completing the dives and can be played back on Mirai’s base sub. I love these insight videos which explain the technology the ideology of Marine Biology and the animals themselves and compliment the actual gameplay really well. I would say this would be the perfect experience for a younger audience as the game is easy to follow with really no risk of ever failing a dive and the rewards with the insight videos is a great incentive to completing the dives themselves. But this is certainly not a game aimed for “kids” as the story narrative for Mirai is very well written as we see the personal relationships and disagreements between her team form around moral ethics about why they are conducting the research against the science of it all. You also learn more about Mirai herself as she communicates with her sister via calls or emails and learn that their mother is suffering from dementia with responsibility falling on Mirai’s sister to look after her which makes Mirai feel guilty for being away. All very powerful story elements for a narrative that could just be ignored if you simply move from dive to dive but certainly adds an extra layer to the story telling alongside the educational elements which never overshadow the game.

Beyond Blue for me is an absolute delightful game to play and there is awe and wonder to be found every time Mirai takes to the oven on a dive whilst the story narrative of her team and family life never feels rushed or just there for padding. The game is limited to only one area of the ocean and 47 species of sea life but I also feel that this more of a platform than just a game experience and if DLC is planned, it could easily see Mirai and her team moving to a different ocean area with new life added in and a fresh narrative too. I love being back in the base sub watching all the Insight videos which I have over and over and I really enjoyed having Mirai’s own Spotify style music playlist which I often found I had left on as I did other things around my home as the songs are incredible, in fact I have them on now as I type this review.

Beyond Blue is a welcome bonus experience, correctly priced and manages to get the balance between being an educational title as well as a solid gaming experience as well which so few others have successfully done. I truly hope to see follow up titles or content for this game as the wonder of Ocean life was ever present just as it was with Blue Planet series of documentaries.

Review: Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition Xbox One Wireless Controller

Review: Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition Xbox One Wireless Controller

So far everything about Cyberpunk 2077 has my attention, from the marketing and trailers, to the social media promotions and the incredible Cyberpunk 2077 Guided Gameplay preview that was shown at EGX 2019. Not to mention the very fact that he has the “Breathtaking” Keanu Reeves playing the role of Johnny Silverhand. Well, how best to honour that character than by giving him his very own unique Xbox One Wireless Controller

The moment I saw this controller I know I needed it in my collection for when I play Cyberpunk 2077 when it releases in September and in fact I actually had planned to do a double hitter Birthday treat for myself by picking up the controller and the game together. However, this controller is in limited numbers and I noticed that it was becoming increasingly difficult to track down so when a notification popped up at my local ARGOS to say that it was back in stock but in limited numbers….well…..no brainer really!

Straight away I love the packaging design for the controller with the box matching the vibrant colours of the Cyberpunk 2077 marketing so far, both front and back keeping the branding on point making the reveal of the actual controller when you cut that sealing tape and open the box even more special.

This is one spectacular looking controller and as I have said before, the team over at Xbox Seattle just make the finest to retail custom consoles and controllers for any platform right now. Just the colours alone make this controller pop as the left side is Silver with Red bumper and trigger buttons whilst the right side is black but with the face buttons black with red to offset the classic black bumper and trigger buttons.

What makes this controller design more delightful are the decals on the controller with the left Silver side bearing the Arasaka Corporation logo, a world-wide mega-corporation dealing in corporate security, banking, and manufacturing who as dodgy as they are powerful. Both thumbsticks have the rubberised grip as does the back of the controller to help maintain hand grip in the sweatiest of shoot-outs, races and firefights you may have playing on Xbox and Cyberpunk 2077 especially. I love how both colour schemes elegantly meet with a style that feel like its machinery spliced to an organic controller.

The right side has the iconic ‘NO FUTURE’ literally scratched into the controller and when your fingers feel the scratch as it does the joint as each side connects. Having that tactile feeling is what makes this controller standout as the same technique that was used on the GEARS 5 Custom Console and Controller. It adds an extra layer to what is already a visually delicious controller design and I really do love the distressed style to it with visible scratches and paint tearing

The battery cover has the SAMURAI gang emblem on it for that finishing touch when you turn the controller around and something that at first made it shout YES outloud but quickly discovered it was just standard for this controller, was seeing what I first believed was a Limited Edition Number saying *2077 but of course, each controller has this alongside a QR code that when scanned….well I won’t spoil that.

As with all Xbox Controllers, two AA Batteries are also included so you can use this controller right out the box as well the usual warranty information and a handy 14 Day Trial code for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate….and this is where I am a little disappointed in that I do feel these trial codes never help the person purchasing it as at this point, who does not have a current subscription to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate really and these trial codes only work on new accounts. Personally I feel a one month code should be included, especially in custom consoles, to allow a person to extend their XGPU subscription but that is more of a personal peeve than a complaint against this controller. There is also no in game reward or item code with this controller which is a shame, even if it included something like a cosmetic item to make you stand out in the game itself as you will if you are playing the game using this controller.

I really love this controller and how it looks and feels and glad I was able to get one before stock ran out, believe me this was not an easy controller to track down online here in London. This will now wait until I have Cyberpunk 2077 in my Xbox One X to play come September and I genuinely wish I could afford the custom console as well but for now, this controller will look great whilst playing the game and in my collection.

Cyberpunk 2077 releases on September 17th 2020 for Xbox One, enhanced for Xbox One X and with the new ‘Smart Delivery’ for the soon to be released next generation Xbox Series X console, all you have to do is buy Cyberpunk 2077 ONCE and when you come to owning the Series X, it will automatically update it to the Series X version….FOR FREE!!!

One of the games, Xenoblade Chronicles, was so successful that not only did it somehow get successfully ported to the Nintendo 3DS, but it also resulted in a spin-off with massive robots and a proper sequel on the Nintendo Switch.

Resident Evil: Village Announced for New Gen Consoles for 2021

During the PlayStation’s Future of Gaming digital event, Capcom, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, announced Resident Evil Village, the eighth entry in the best-selling Resident Evil series. The all-new title is currently in development using Capcom’s proprietary RE Engine, which was used to create vivid gameplay experiences in hit titles such as Resident Evil 7 biohazard, Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3, and Devil May Cry 5. RE Engine paired with next generation console technology will elevate the survival horror experience in Resident Evil Village to new heights, as the title will showcase the most realistic and terrifying graphics to date. 

In the debut cinematic trailer released today, Capcom revealed a glimpse of the evocative new setting and storyline of Resident Evil Village. Set a few years after the critically acclaimed Resident Evil 7 biohazard, the all-new storyline begins with Ethan and his wife Mia living peacefully in a new location, free from their past nightmares. Just as they are building their new life together, tragedy befalls them once again. Chris Redfield, the legendary hero from the Resident Evil series who made a brief appearance in Resident Evil 7 biohazard, is reacquainted with the couple and horribly disrupts their life, leaving Ethan devastated and thrown into an entirely new nightmare.

The first-person action in Resident Evil Village begins when players assume the role of a distraught and shattered Ethan as he seeks to uncover the mysterious new horrors that plague a once peaceful village. Throughout this terrifying journey, players will fight for every breath as they are hunted by vicious new enemies that have infested the snow-capped locale. Channeling the capabilities of next generation consoles, the detailed realism and relentless feeling of fear will increase with each desperate battle for survival, while moments of calm will leave players wondering what new horrors await.

Resident Evil Village is scheduled for a 2021 release on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Steam.
