Subnautica 2 keeps the franchise's long-standing tradition of sending the player hunting for Copper. This valuable resource is used in most early recipes involving electronics, including the famous scanner. Luckily, you can find this resource in no time. It's within the vicinity of your lifepod, but you may have gone exploring in different directions before getting here. Plus, the evil electric plant that shocks you isn't exactly inviting. Here's where to find Copper in Subnautica 2 's early game. Copper locations in Subnautica 2 Look down, try not to get shocked. Screenshot by Destructoid The easiest spot to find copper in Subnautica 2 is just below the Lifepod, still in the starting area. Look down to find a cave with an oxygen plant in it, as well as another brain-like structure with a glowing green circle. You'll find a handful of copper deposits on the walls, alongside other handy resources. The brain-like colony, for instance, i...

There are many ways to receive damage on a run in Everything is Crab , and we have to heal Darwin to win a specific stage. Healing Darwin not only allows you to prolong a run and eventually beat it, but you can also unlock more Evolutions and Genetics. Let's find out what's the best way to recover your HP. How to recover your HP in Everything is Crab We have more than one way to heal Darwin once he takes damage. You can always avoid such situations by dodging incoming attacks. However, that's not always possible, but you can heal by simply feeding. Yes, feeding not only helps Darwin to grow, but it also helps him to recover his lost health. However, not every type of food will regenerate your HP. Ideally, you'll want to look for food items that have a sparkle around them (refer to the image below). Screenshot by Destructoid These food items can be of different types, but having the sparkle around them is essential. When you consume such food i...

Last month, I had the chance to speak with Red Barrels co-founder Philippe Morin, where we discussed the current state of the horror genre, how we got here, and what Outlast 's position is within it. Of course, I had to touch upon the potential of a new game, and perhaps even Outlast 3 , and the response I got now has me yearning to see what the studio is working on. Note: The following is based on excerpts from  our full interview with Morin , which we would appreciate you checking out. Outlast 2 is the last "contemporary" entry in the series, following the first game and its Whistleblower DLC. Image via Red Barrels The Outlast Trials remains Red Barrels' main game at the moment, and as Morin told me, the game's monetization model is working well enough to sustain the company and even fund a new project that the studio is apparently working on in parallel to the live-service co-op title. "Right now, because  The Outlast Trials  is i...

The Cassiopeia set out to Tau Ceti f, a planet 12 light-years away from Earth, with the Andromeda following behind. They arrive at the planet, having crash-landed following a hull breach by an unidentifiable meteor carrying an otherworldly contagion inside. The contagion—known as the Growth—spread rapidly, taking the form of the esteemed and determined crew. It mimicked their appearance, voice, and copied their history.
