A Plague Tale: Requiem is a rather somber tale filled with plenty of sadness and loss throughout, so the segments where our main characters, siblings Amicia and Hugo, get to laugh and smile are always welcomed. Some of the game's trophies and achievements are tied to these brief moments of respite, such as Perfect Throw, which tasks you with successfully completing all throws in the crown game. If you haven't come across this one naturally, no worries – we'll tell you where to find the crown game and how to complete it below.

How to find the crown game to earn the Perfect Throw trophy or achievement

The crown game is found in the market during the opening segment of Chapter VIII: A Sea of Promises. Early on, you'll dock on the island and enter the city, where you'll be tasked with wandering around a market and inquiring about where you may find the tree and bird from Hugo's dream.

Step 1: As you continue through the market, you'll eventually make your way down a tight alleyway where Amicia will ask whether they should be concerned about the Count's army. Around this time, keep an eye out on your left for a set of stairs leading into an optional section of the city with a few stalls and such.

Step 2: When you've entered the optional area down the stairs, note the largest stall with four crowns of flowers hanging in it. Approach this spot and initiate a conversation to begin the crown game, which Amicia will happily agree to play as Hugo cheers her on.

Step 3: You'll need to aim and throw one pot through each crown to win the game, which shouldn't prove too difficult. Just take your time and be sure not to accidentally hit the outside of a crown. If you fail, you can always reload your checkpoint and give it another go.

When you've completed the crown game, you'll earn the Perfect Throw trophy or achievement, as well as the Flower Crown souvenir.

If you've been curious about Xbox Cloud Gaming but didn't want another monthly subscription, Microsoft may have a new option for you. The company is testing a free, ad-supported version of Xbox Cloud Gaming for Xbox Insiders, allowing eligible players to stream select games they already own without a Game Pass membership.

However, you'll have to watch a short advertisement before your session begins. Microsoft says the ads will never interrupt gameplay, making this an early test of whether a simple tradeoff can bring cloud gaming to more players.

LOQ 17 gaming laptop

Lenovo has expanded its LOQ gaming laptop lineup with a new graphics option. The company has introduced a refreshed version of the LOQ 17IRX10, pairing Intel's Core i7-14700HX processor with Nvidia's newly announced GeForce RTX 5070 12GB laptop GPU. The update gives buyers another configuration to choose from without changing the overall design or feature set of the laptop.

The new variant joins Lenovo's existing LOQ 17IRX10 lineup, which was previously available with GeForce RTX 5050, RTX 5060, and RTX 5070 8GB graphics options. While the chassis remains unchanged, the addition of a 12GB RTX 5070 brings more VRAM to the series, a specification that has become increasingly important as modern AAA games demand larger texture caches and higher memory capacity.

Lenovo has revealed more details about an upcoming Legion gaming handheld that could be among the thinnest and lightest devices in its category. The Legion C700 will measure just 14.99mm at its thinnest point and weigh approximately 556 grams, or around 1.25 pounds. By comparison, Lenovo’s Legion Go S is 22.6mm thick and weighs about 730 grams, while the ASUS ROG Ally X measures 24.7mm and weighs 678 grams.

Trimming these figures down should make the C700 much easier to hold for long periods and carry in a bag. But all of this portability comes at a cost--and that's cloud gaming.
