The Sims 4 update adds over 100 new skin tones
Along with customisation sliders and makeup swatches.
Earlier this year, players asked Maxis to improve the skin tones available in The Sims 4. Many pointed out that the darker skin tones lacked vibrancy and looked ashy - while makeup often appeared patchy on some of these tones. In response, executive producer Lyndsay Pearson acknowledged the team needed to do more to include a variety of skin tones and hairstyles in the game: and an update to help with that has now arrived.

Feature | The power of text in games
True to type.
In the late 90's, I was a primary school student. I remember reading a book while the teacher called out names for the daily register. She called out my name and I didn't hear her, but when she finally managed to grab my attention, she wasn't angry. She actually seemed pleased. 'I wish I could get that absorbed in a book', she said.

Digital Foundry | Call of Duty: Warzone - what's really happening on PS5 and Xbox Series consoles?
4K60 and 120Hz gaming tested on all three next-gen consoles.
Activision made headlines at the next generation console launch by adding 120fps support To Call of Duty: Warzone on Xbox Series X - an extra that was not mirrored on PlayStation 5, which continues to top out at 60Hz. Confusion followed, but clarifications came when Rocket League developer Psyonix revealed that Sony does not allow 120Hz support on legacy PS4 apps running on PlayStation 5. It's a shame to not see it yet, especially since other enhancements have been delivered to PS4 games through back-compat (most notably on Days Gone and Ghost of Tsushima, which both now run at 60fps on PS5). And so, we wondered to what extent Warzone has been improved when running on both next-gen machines. 120fps support is allowed on Series X, but is there any other advantage here? The answer? Absolutely yes.

Feature | Beyond the bombast and the bugs, Cyberpunk 2077 has a very human heart
Impressions of the first 40 hours ahead of our final review.
Editor's note: After years of hype and controversy, CD Projekt's Cyberpunk 2077 is arriving later this week. We've spent around 40 hours in Night City so far and will be delivering our final verdict later in the week. In addition to wanting to spend a bit more time with the game, the pre-launch build we have has some stability and performance issues, and we'd prefer to give CD Projekt a little more time to squash bugs and get the experience to the same level players will see later this week. Before the final review, here are our impressions of this vast and frequently impressive open world adventure.

Digital Foundry | Assassin's Creed Valhalla - what PC hardware is needed to match PS5 visuals?
And which settings get the best from your rig?
With the arrival of the next console generation, it's inevitable that the hardware requirements for PC software will rise as graphical quality and complexity increases. The baseline is reset with the arrival of Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, and we wanted to get an outline of what kind of PC graphics kit is required to match or even exceed console hardware. To do this, we broke down the visual make-up of Assassin's Creed Valhalla, matching PS5 and PC in terms of quality settings - getting a good grip on optimised settings in the process, where we measure the bang for the buck of every preset and suggest the most optimal settings for PC users.
