Hunt legends in Far Cry 4’s Valley of the Yetis DLC

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 Prison, Valley 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.

Aion 2’s naughty character customization is the least interesting thing about it
It has surprisingly good combat and flying, but its monetization is much harder to defend.

I’m not a big fan of MMORPGs, but Aion 2’s rise to the top of the Steam charts with over 400,000 concurrent players was enough to pique my interest. Yes, the game has a breast size slider, and no, I don’t think it’s a big deal when it sits among some 200 other customization options in one of the deepest character creators I have ever seen. And yeah, the options run deeper than Cyberpunk 2077. Yet most discussions online barely mention the game itself.

It's as if most critics never made it past that menu.

AMD’s FSR 4 is coming to handhelds, so I can see myself losing games in higher resolution
AMD’s FSR 4 is coming to handhelds, but your Steam Deck might be left out
Steam Deck

AMD is bringing its FSR 4 upscaling technology to handheld gaming PCs by the end of 2026, potentially giving portable devices a welcome boost in gaming performance. The catch? It is still unclear whether existing devices such as the Steam Deck and ROG Ally will get the upgrade or whether gamers will need to buy new hardware.

AMD consumer chip chief Jack Huynh confirmed the expansion in comments to South Korean publication The Elec. The company plans to bring its machine-learning-based FSR 4 technology to APUs, gaming laptops and handheld devices, expanding it beyond the desktop graphics cards it initially supported.

ARC Raiders just dropped its biggest update yet, and I’m having a blast
I waited six months for Arc Raider's Frozen Trails, and it's like I never left.
Arc Raiders Frozen Trial Frigate in the map

After watching all of those teasers and trailers, I avoided any of the early impressions of Arc Raiders' latest update from gaming channels on YouTube and dived right into the new map, Pendola Pass. Embark’s massive 2.0 update introduces a snowy Italian mountain settlement beyond the Rust Belt where one of the enormous Emperor ARC machines has somehow fallen.

After a few raids, I thought I had seen everything, from the new Arc enemies to the new map. But just before I was getting ready to drop into Pendola Pass for the fifth time, that's when I noticed the Frigate mentioned on Blue Gate. So obviously, I went to check it out. As I first laid eyes on this flying fortress, I knew we're so back.
