Today marks the long awaited release of From Software’s punishing and engaging action RPG, Dark Souls 2 on PC. If you are curious about how the game may look outside of its original PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 homes, we have a set of screenshots and a new trailer to show you what you can expect from the port.

Dark Souls 2 originally released on the PS3 and Xbox 360 on March 11, back when the publisher’s name was still Namco Bandai. Since then, the game has gone on to receive acclaim (check out our review for details on that), and the publisher has changed its name to Bandai Namco.

If you do decide to check out the PC version, be prepared to die. A lot. We have a few tips that might make things a little easier though.

Madden has been available on phones for years, but its mobile versions have never offered the same depth as the main console games. EA is now bringing a more substantial version to Apple Arcade through Madden NFL 27 Arcade Edition, which launches on August 6.

Players can manage trades, free agency, and roster changes before taking their team through the regular season and playoffs. Quick Play is also included for anyone who wants to skip the management side and start an exhibition match.

GameNative is making it much easier for Android players to commit one of PC gaming’s oldest crimes against storage space. Its v1.1.1 pre-release adds Nexus Mods integration, cutting out much of the file shuffling usually required to get PC game mods running on a phone.

According to GameNative’s official release notes, users can sign in to a Nexus account and download mods through the app. Downloads can be paused and resumed too, so losing your connection shouldn’t force you back to the beginning.
