Unlike similar open-world games, Crimson Desert does not have a traditional fast travel system. While it's become a standard feature for vast titles such as this one, Pearl Abyss decided to make fast travel into an actual mechanic, one that is given as a reward for intrepid explorers. One of the spots you're going to visit the most is certainly the Greymane camp. It is your first base of operations in Hernand, given to you and your clan for your contributions to the Duchy's well-being. Having to constantly make the trek on foot or horseback can become tedious, but there's thankfully a way to unlock fast travel to the camp by opening an Abyss nexus nearby. Here's how you can do that. How to unlock the Greymane camp fast travel portal This is where you can find the disabled Abyss Nexus.

After a couple weeks of very nerdy grinding, Marathon fans and ARG gamers have helped to unlock the fourth, endgame map Cryo Archive. The high-tier difficulty location opens up tomorrow at 12pm CT, but its accompanying trailer is overflowing with hype. Most notably so, because it's narrated by Ben Starr, who is the voice of rogue AI Durandal of the franchise's original trilogy fame, and that's enough to get anyone invested. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SW8VRcMy5vU&pp=ugUEEgJlbg%3D%3D Starr kills it, as always, bringing his expertise from roles like Verso in Expedition 33 and Clive Rosfield in Final Fantasy 16 to Bungie's dark sci-fi universe. The UESC Marathon ship carrying 30,000 people in cryostasis has been shrouded in mystery and suspense for decades, even since the first games launched in the 90s. The ghost ship now hangs above Tau Ceti IV, and it's finally time to go there, and Durandal is the one rolling out the red carpet. The video teasing...

It seems Stellar Blade developer Shift Up is falling prey to the video game industry's trend-chasing fallacy and is allegedly working on a gacha game that suddenly shifted (pun intended) from a hunting to a Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 -style game. Stellar Blade 2 remains the focus of the company's main team. Image via Shift Up As per Dante Alexandru of Need4Games , Project Spirits is currently in development at Shift Up. It's a gacha game styled after the wildly popular Expedition 33 , itself a turn-based JRPG with loads of modernizations that break the mold and really make it its own genre. According to his report, this wasn't always the case, and it seems the game changed from a PvE-oriented hunting game into one following in Sandfall's footsteps. Thankfully, Alexandru says this is being made by Shift Up's secondary studio, almost entirely produced in China rather than the company's home of Korea. The main studio in that country is still focused ...
