Add as a preferred source on Google

Far Cry 4: Valley of the Yetis takes Ajay Ghale to a dangerous new corner of Kyrat on March 10, 2015. In this latest downloadable content release, Ajay’s helicopter has crashed on a frozen ridge. He must establish a camp and hold it until rescue arrives, while in the meantime uncovering the mysteries of a dangerous local cult, The Awakened Ones.

Just like Escape from Durgesh PrisonValley of the Yetis mixes up the Far Cry 4 formula. Where the previous DLC structured its escape mission around random maps and forced restarts on death, this new adventure adds elements of base defense. After capturing a camp, it becomes your temporary base of operations in the DLC’s new open world. Complete side missions during the day to fortify the camp and learn more about the area, then fight for survival at night when you must fend off waves of attackers.

Who are The Awakened Ones, what do they want with you, and what is their connection to the legendary Yeti? Uncover these mysteries and more on March 10. Valley of the Yetis can be purchased alone for $10, or for $30 as part of the Season Pass.

Forget console wars. Steam Machine may help kill lazy PC gaming ports
Valve’s expensive mini PC could become PC gaming’s new baseline
Steam Machine with Steam Controller

Valve’s Steam Machine has become easy to dunk on. The price starts well above current consoles, and the hardware sits somewhere between entry-level and mid-range gaming PCs rather than a monster rig. Early reviews have also talked about how demanding games need upscaling, trimmed settings, and realistic expectations.

With the ongoing memory crisis, it sounds like a rough time to bring a PC to the couch. Though the Steam Machine doesn't need to beat high-end gaming PCs or the big consoles. Its purpose was different from the start. And what really makes it better is how it could shift the PC gaming segment entirely.

GTA 6 may not get the real physical release fans were hoping for
The game may come in a case, but not on a disc

Grand Theft Auto 6 pre-orders recently went live, but the excitement came with one frustrating catch. The so-called physical edition of the game will not include a disc. Instead, buyers will get a box with cover art and a download code inside.

That decision immediately caused backlash online, especially among collectors who still care about owning games on disc. For a while, there was some hope that this would only be temporary. Reports suggested that Rockstar could release a proper disc version of GTA 6 in December 2026, giving physical media fans something to wait for.

The Steam Machine launch hasn’t even happened, but the resale circus has begun
Scalpers are already trying to cash in on Valve’s Steam Machine

Valve has started sending out reservation emails for the Steam Machine ahead of its June 30 launch, and scalpers have wasted no time turning the whole thing into a comedy act.

The Steam Machine is already an expensive device, as RAM and SSD prices have made hardware pricing miserable across the industry. Valve has previously said it would like to lower the price if component costs improve. That makes the resale listings even harder to take seriously, because the official price was already higher than many people expected before scalpers added their own fantasy tax.
