Since nearly more than half of 2022 is over, we here at Gamers-Outlet.net thought it was a greaaaaaat idea to recap some of the upcoming games of this year and get you pumped up for what’s in store.
1. A Plague Tale: Requiem
A Plague Tale: Requiem
A direct sequel to “A Plague Tale: Innocence”, you follow in the footsteps of siblings Amicia and Hugo during the era of the Black Plague. Of course, the friggin’ rats are gonna be there and will be way more challenging this time.
To be released in October, this game truly embodies elements of stealth, surprise and historical horror as we see the protagonists fleeing from soldiers AND rats. Will they find a cure for Hugo? Let’s find out!
2. High on Life
High on Life
Now imagine this: You’re a regular high school graduate who has pretty much an uneventful life but now has to fight aliens with talking guns because they’re trying to take over our planet for the sole purpose of drugs?! That’s literally what’s happening here.
Developed under the creator of Rick and Morty Justin Roiland, this game is gonna be super funny and aesthetic!
3. The Callisto Protocol
The Callisto Protocol
Finally, to end our awesome list, we present to you: The Callisto Protocol.
A survival horror game set in the future, this game seems like it’s got everything you’d want. Based entirely on Jupiter’s moon Callisto, it’s set in the year 2320. Fun fact: This game is inside the PUBG universe (wtf? but it’s true!)…. How stoked are you for this?

If you’ve been keeping up with your PS Plus subscription lately, it’s been crazy good. Sony is dishing out some awesome titles to keep forever (as long as you’re a member of PS Plus) with their subscription and gamers are absolutely lovin’ it.
This time, the free games for May 2022 are gonna MAKE you wanna buy the subscription. Don’t trust us? Well then, here’s the first free game that has been announced to drop next week!
FIFA 22
YES! That’s right… FIFA 22! It’s hard to believe Sony would do such a thing but lately, almost all their titles on PS Plus have been a hit. Compared to the last couple of years, at least. It will be up for grabs on PS4 and on PS5. And that’s not all. There’s also another great title dropping this month and it’s… TRIBES OF MIDGARD!!!
Tribes of Midgard
A great action-adventure RPG, this game is one you shouldn’t miss out on. It’s based on Nordic mythology so all you geeks are gonna have a lot of fun with this game! Available both for PS4 and PS5. And we’re not done yet: Here’s the final game!
Curse of the Dead Gods
Curse of the Dead Gods is the final entry and is a roguelike dungeon crawler with great aesthetics to be claimed for PS4 users. Highly recommend it, and is so much fun to play with friends! It was only launched last year so it’s pretty darn new.
Well that’s it for this time folks, make sure you grab these on time!
And if you want to also wanna receive free games and cool offers from us, make sure you add our email to your mailing list 😉 And keep checking our main site for cool updates!
Well, well, well…. We’re back at these rumors about a new Grand Theft Auto. Although this one leak is actually super promising – maybe even lead to an announcement about GTA 6 next year! But take it with a grain of salt.
This new juicy tidbit of information includes talk of a Chapter System in the game, similar to the one in Read Dead Redemption 2 and a possible sequel to GTA Online.
This comes from a well known insider Tez2 who has been pretty accurate at leaking stuff via forums and Twitter. Here’s what they had to say in the image below!
Tez2 Forum Reply
Another industry insider revealed sometime last month that GTA 6 will be massive, and would take around 500 hours to finish everything in-game. It is similar to Dying Light 2 in that regard, although their promised “500 hours” mean a replay of the game with different choices and to get all achievements. On an average it was completed in under 200 hours with most achievements unlocked. Well, only time will tell us.
Are you excited? What are your thoughts?! Leave them below 😉 Oh, and don’t forget to check out our main site www.gamers-outlet.net for the most exclusive deals! We’re having some more this spring, so stay tuned! 😉
Steam Deck was finally released last week and is available worldwide! And with that, we got some pleasant surprises, such as Valve’s exclusive deck game: Aperture Desk Job! It is based in the Portal universe and will be available to users as a free game on March 01.
Valve insists that it is NOT Portal 3. Instead, it is a game in the same universe. This is what it says on the Steam store page:
“Lower your expectations: This is not a sequel to Portal. Now get ready to raise them slightly, because it is in the expanded universe of those games. Desk Job puts you squarely in the driver’s seat at Aperture Science. Then quickly removes the driving part and adds a desk in front of the seat.”
Although it is available on Steam Deck, it is also available to download on PC. These are the minimum system requirements to run the game!
Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
OS: Windows 10
Processor: Core i5-7500 / Ryzen 5 1600
Memory: 12 GB RAM
Graphics: GTX 1060 / RX 580 – 6GB VRAM
Storage: 4 GB available space
What do you think about the trailer? Do you think you will play the game? It seems very entertaining imho. Let’s see what the players say when it releases tomorrow!
In any case, if you are looking for some sick-ass discounts, check out the main site! Tons of new games to buy! From Dying Light 2, to Rainbow Six Extraction. The prices won’t disappoint you! Pssst…. We also got the cheapest prices for the softwares 😉
Finally, it’s here. You draw your curtains and switch off the lights. It’s perfect. Everything is okay – and you click on Dying Light 2. Released just this week – the sequel to the much awaited Dying Light is here and it truly is breath-taking.
You’re started off with the same track of Harran that played during the first game and given a backstory into how DL2 came into existence. Of course, the GRE is involved again, and a failed experiment caused the rapid spread of the virus throughout the world causing only one city to survive, Villedor. You start as Aiden, a Pilgrim (a wanderer, a survivor and a badass zombie killer). 10 minutes into the game and you meet Spike from the original game and he brings up Crane real quick. The nostalgia hits hard! It is a bit depressing, ngl. The game looks beyond amazing and the music compliments it so well. Overall, this game has very positive reviews and great praise from critics and gamers both. Let’s dive into this review and talk about the pros and cons of this game, and if you should buy it.
Before we talk about the best parts, let’s talk about the cons first. The game was played on medium settings on a rig that had an RTX 2060 GPU, 16 GB DDR4 RAM and an i7-6700K processor. For some reason, the Ray Tracing would cause a drastic drop in FPS so we just decided to play it on medium to avoid any of that.
Performance (Bugs, Glitches, FPS and more)
A game this new is expected to have some performance issues, glitches, bugs and whatnot. Dying Light 2 unfortunately is no stranger to that and has some massive issues with performance mainly, with a few minor bugs and glitches that can be overlooked. The FPS drops drastically and the game is unable to hold a constant rate. Frequent drops like these can be extremely annoying and can affect the overall gameplay. There are also enormous loading times, blacked out screens, laggy combat and audio issues where the characters are talking (as is evident from the subtitles) but there is literally no sound. There are also issues that are somewhat game breaking – you cannot progress through certain parts in the story because of unknown reasons and are just stuck in a loop for hours.

There was a body duplication glitch, and also a glitch where the corpses just disappeared. The funniest glitch we came across was when you vault over an opponent to kick the other – the person we vaulted over started floating in the air. It was hilarious. Techland said that they are working on a new patch that should reportedly fix these problems and hopefully optimize the game further. All of these were encountered on PC, just to be clear. Some of these issues are addressed under the TIPS section of this article and we show you how to get around these (for now) while the patches are being rolled out; you can thank us later. 😉
Combat & Parkour
In the very beginning, you have almost no stamina left and keep falling down. Nights are extremely tough and parkour seems SO SLOW. Of course as you level up it is truly fun and amazing, but in the beginning it is a bit… frustrating. Not just that, but Aiden’s jump feels super weird. As if he’s jumping on marshmallows… it doesn’t seem natural at all and is at times difficult to gauge if he would make certain jumps or not. From a first-person perspective, the grappling part deeper into the game makes you feel like Spider-Man and is pure, limitless fun. The combat is much more difficult, because it feels a bit more realistic with the increased health of the opponents (especially human). It can get a little repetitive, and sometimes boring. Some enhancements and nerfs need to be made in upcoming patches.
Story
The story comes across as lacklustre and a tad bit boring/expected. The GRE’s involved again? Seriously? Everything adds up to an almost anticlimactic build-up that ends up being not so satisfactory. Maybe the DLC will spice things up. The characters are mostly predictable and are not so well written.
That’s all we had for the cons. Here’s some tips in order for you to not rage at the game and finish it with ease!
Tips
If you’re having trouble finishing a quest, especially when you’re at the location but nothing happens (as seen in one of the earlier quests titled “Talk to the people of the Bazaar” where you endlessly search for something to happen and nothing happens – just roam around for a bit after you reach the Bazaar or complete a side quest. You should get a call and then boom, you are able to progress.
Multiplayer Co-op problems? Don’t worry. Apparently, you’re not allowed to have more than 300 friends on Steam at the moment for this game, so just remove some friends if you’re above 300 and it should work like a charm. Hopefully this gets addressed soon.
Pressing the “Q” key for survivor sense and it doesn’t work? Just walk around a few metres, press the escape key and try again. It should work. This is one of the most annoying bugs. But since it’s an important one, it will be fixed nonetheless.
Finally, random floating bodies? Audio cracking/no audio at all? Parkour and combat seem sluggish? Just restart the game and all will be good.
This is what we have so far! Time to talk about the GREAT stuff.
The atmosphere
It is beautiful. The graphics are outstanding and the game looks amazing, no doubt about it. The voice acting is a bit okay although the traversing makes it so much more bearable. The music is also so damn good. It really feels depressing at times and during certain missions we felt actually sad. A great combo.
Playtime
This game promises so much playtime that you won’t be bored of it and it has enough replayability to reach about 500 hours. No joke, that’s what Techland said. We ourselves are around 40 hours deep and haven’t made any significant progress in the game (also because we’re completionists haha). It is fun, entertaining and keeps you hooked. Get ready to spend 3-4 hours per session at the very least.
The Nostalgia
Most players playing this are and will play it for the nostalgia. Although it is not very connected to the first one, it still reminds you of the times you played as Crane. The rooftop jumping, side missions and survivor saving – it does make you nostalgic and give you some happiness.
I think that’s about it for now, yes, there are many things wrong with this game but should you buy it?
Yes. Techland gave support to a game that came out in 2015 and continued it until DL2 came out.
Should you buy it now? Meh, maybe wait for a bit until the bugs are fixed.
Is it fun regardless of everything? YES!!!!
Anyway, make sure you check it out on our website for a GREAT RATE! Go kill some zombies. And don’t forget! Good night and good luck 😉
Hey gamers, hope you’re all doing well. We know that you were all looking forward to this one – the release of Rainbox Six Extraction. It is finally out since around a week and it looks absolutely amazing.
The game was delayed before, but what game hasn’t been delayed in the last year or two? Let’s not even talk about Cyberpunk 2077. Anyway, let’s get down to it! Is this game any good? Worth buying?
Rainbow Six Extraction: Aliens!
The game is beautiful, aesthetically. Looks great and has terrific graphics. It is extraordinarily difficult and… it’s not fun playing alone. A lot of negative reviews about the game stem from the fact that it was too difficult and was just not good as a single-player game. Remnant from the Ashes had a similar problem but was still doable on lower difficulties, whereas extraction is just difficult.
One noteworthy thing is the story. It doesn’t make much sense and… just throws you in the game pretty much without any concrete plot or explanation. Sure, you’re there to shoot some alien testicles and have fun, but a good plot and a story can go a long way in making the experience much better. The campaign is also ridiculously repetitive and can get mentally exhausting – all the levels end up playing out the same way.
Rainbow Six Extraction Gameplay
This game feels like a glorified DLC or a half-sequel to Six Siege, but that doesn’t mean it’s bad. It’s a great game and has very decent mechanics. It is a LOT of fun with friends so you should definitely buy a 4 pack of this game and play it together in co-op. The tactical nature of the game should be lauded but is frustrating if you try to play it with randos (or alone).
Check out the gameplay below!

Have a lovely week and stay tuned for more updates! Ciao! 🙂
Sad news for gamers this week! Microsoft and 343 Industries have shut down the Halo Xbox 360 matchmaking servers. The games include Halo 3, Halo 4 and Halo: Reach.
The internet mourns the end of such an era – the age of Halo. The perfect escape with friends – many many happy memories made! The image below shows the date as December 2021, as that was the original date planned for the servers to shut down, but it was delayed by a couple of weeks and shut down a couple of days ago, instead.
Halo Xbox 360 Servers Shut Down
There’s one silver lining though – you can play these games online via the Master Chief Collection (MCC) on Steam for example. Although there’s a few functionalities missing, such as fileshare and player customization.
Tributes for the game started pouring in from all across the world for the game and people took to Twitter, Reddit and YouTube to share their final moments in the game; or simply talk about their happy memories with Halo. Here’s a few of our favorite memes and videos!
Hey everyone! First of all, wish you guys a very happy 2022! Thanks for being with us since the beginning and supporting us with your business and feedback.
Now, onto the topic – Windows 11.
Called the most secure Windows version yet, it has been dubbed as the greatest update and upgrade yet. It utilizes Secure Boot because of TPM 2.0 requirements and makes it super safe.
One of the biggest changes was in terms of design. It looks and feels brilliant. Visually, it portrays itself as a very fresh and fluid design and is a great deal different from most of its older counterparts. It is as if MacOS came to Windows! And the dark mode looks SICK!
Windows 11
Productivity wise, it’s got really great features like the Snap Groups feature, and has a brand new File Explorer menu as well. A few problems arise with compatibility. Many users and tech gurus have expressed concerns over this strict feature – it has sparked a controversy. f you want the latest OS, you’ll need an Intel Core 8th-gen processor or newer, or an AMD Ryzen 2000 processor or newer. Basically if your computer was purchased 4 years ago or earlier – it won’t be compatible.
Windows 11 Compatibility Issues
Another issue is with performance. Is it worth it? Well, the animations are smoother and the loading times are a tad bit faster. But it’s nothing extraordinary – nothing too noticeable. Although Microsoft claims that this is the best possible OS for gaming in the market right now. Who are we to deny that?!
Watch this video below that shows the comparison between Win 10 and 11!
Well, whatever you choose, it doesn’t matter! Because we have them both, at the MOST AFFORDABLE RATE EVER.
Don’t believe us? Then click here to have a look! Well, that’s it for today folks! Hope you have a lovely entry into this new year and have loads of fun! Until next time 😀
