Iron Gate's hit survival game sold more than 1 million copies in its first week on Steam, and has since sold more than 12 million total. It currently features cross-play between Xbox and PC and is an Xbox "Play Anywhere" title, meaning purchasing Valheim on Xbox consoles or on PC via the Microsoft Store also grants access to the game on both platforms. It's currently unclear if Valheim on PlayStation will support cross-play between all platforms.

The original PlayStation hit U.S. shores 30 years ago today, helping usher in a disc-based gaming revolution that reshaped the industry. Four new consoles and lots of hardware iterations later, PlayStation is the undisputed winner in the high-end console gaming space. What were the top-selling games that helped it get there? A newly released list of the top all-time performers across all PlayStation platformers in the States tells part of the story, and it's a pretty depressing one.

Sony held out longer than Microsoft and Nintendo, but it too is increasing the prices of PlayStation consoles in the US starting on August 21. The standard PS5 (the one with with a disc drive) will now run you $550, up from $500. The Digital Edition is $500, up from $450. The PS5 Pro, meanwhile, will require you to fork over a whopping $750. That's up from an already-eyewatering $700. In other words, each console got a $50 price bump.

The original Resident Evil is a horror classic that confined the action to a single location, the Spencer Mansion. Resident Evil 2 took things much further, expanding to the entirety of Raccoon City, building out the story of the Umbrella Corporation's role in the zombie outbreak, and setting the standard the series would be judged by for decades to come. Like its predecessor, Resident Evil 2 has two protagonists to choose from, in this case Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield. Both have become iconic franchise mainstays, and unlike in the original Resident Evil, each protagonist has a separate storyline with branching paths. To get the full picture, you need to fight your way through Raccoon City twice.
