EA has revealed a ton of details about player classes, The Yard, and Superstar KO in Madden NFL 22. In a blog post, EA announced new details about some of the other modes in Madden NFL 22, like how class experience will be shared across the Face of the Franchise and The Yard modes.Player classes are used in both Face of the Franchise and The Yard, although both modes have some exclusive classes. Classes available in both modes will share progression. EA shared four The Yard exclusive classes: Mojo, Goliath, Hitman, and The Freak, all of which excel at a specific position on both offense and defense. You can also unlock Superstar X-Factor abilities in either mode and use them in any class, allowing for custom builds in both modes.The Yard will have a new challenge-based campaign, playable in both solo and co-op mode. The campaign has four chapters, each one with its own venues and games. Each chapter will feature a series of challenges and matches, which will need to be completed in order to challenge that chapter's boss, like facing off against Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in London. Player's who beat the boss and beat every single challenge and bonus objective in a chapter will unlock exclusive gear.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

The PS5 comes loaded with bundles of new UI features, and one of the most user-friendly is its activity cards. The cards, set by the developers, help point you in the direction of features or events, and can come with integrated video guides to help you through tough spots. They even outline how long an activity is expected to take, and that process is more complex and personalized than you might think.In an article revolving around Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and game difficulty from Axios, Insomniac game director Mike Daly outlined how the activity cards work. While developers do set their own estimate for completing a task, that's just the first step of the process. The system then takes that estimate and compares it to average completion times from other PSN players to make sure the estimate and average will roughly match up. Then it checks that against your own pace--making the estimate a little longer if you're taking your time, or a little shorter if you're speeding your way through.It's a neat feature, and works well with Ratchet & Clank's general approach toward game difficulty. As Daly said, the team approached the game trying to "enable everybody to have the experience they want to have."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Nintendo might not have announced the rumored Nintendo Switch Pro earlier this month, but you could make the argument that Valve came in to save the day with its own portable gaming device, the Steam Deck. Like the Nintendo Switch, this is a gaming-first device that can be played on the go or docked to a larger display. Unlike the Nintendo Switch, however, this is an open PC platform, making the two devices rather different to use.Still, it's hard not to compare the two, especially when both seem like fantastic platforms for the wide range of games supported on each, from small indie titles to large AAA blockbusters. But just how different are they from a hardware perspective? And just what can you expect when booting them up next to one another?We're comparing the Steam Deck, original Nintendo Switch, and the new Nintendo Switch (OLED model) to help you make the correct decision, or at least better describe how similar and drastically different these two platforms are.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com
