Yep, an Oblivion Remastered modder has done the thing all of us have secretly wanted for years. They’ve stuck a penthouse at the summit of the Imperial City’s White-Gold Tower, so you can live far above the potato-faced NPC masses and take in the views like a Cyrodiilic and pre-computer version of New Vegas‘ Mr House.
As player home mods go, it’s possibly the least subtle bit of design placement I’ve ever seen, but let’s face it, you didn’t splash out for an remaster with gorgeous UE5 visuals not to be able to take in a stunning panorama of central Cyrodiil from your character’s digs.

The modder behind this goes by RBDinteractive, and their ‘Champion Penthouse‘ is designed to finally deliver a reward for ending the Oblivion Crisis and saving the entire world that isn’t just some admittedly cool armour you might not even end up using.
The concept’s very similar to a classic Oblivion mod – Vince Bly’s ‘Top of the World‘. Based on the fact RBDinteractive’s credited the fix and port script for OG Oblivion mods that modder Haphestia (whom we’ve recently interviewed about Oblivion Remastered modding) has developed for the remaster, it looks like there’s even a chance one could be loosely based on the other.
Though, there are plenty of differences, with Top of the World’s square wooden room atop the tower could seemingly only be fast-travelled to, while the Champion Penthouse is a rounded stone suite that slightly more closely matches the design of the tower itself, and can be gotten to via a ladder found to the right when you enter at ground level.
Not a bad place to crash, eh? | Image credit: RBDinteractive/Bethesda
The furnishings and architecture are different, but the view’s the same breathtaking one that’s prompted both modders to decide to perch a house that’s open to Cyrodiil’s wider worldspace here, so you can take in the views from any angle in all their glory.
It’s worth noting that as for right now the Champion’s Penthouse is accessible at any time for free, since it’s free and there’s no quest attached, but RBDinteractive’s suggested that might change soon. “I’m gonna try to learn how to edit quests and [have] homes be purchased,” they wrote in the mod’s comments section, “I’ll let you know if I get it working. My idea would be to get the penthouse when you beat the main quest, because everyone refers to you as Champion.”
So, there you go. A house ideal for those who love nice views, and the literal worst nightmare of those who’re afraid of heights. Hey, you’ve fought your way through legions of Daedra pouring out of a not-quite-hell, surely you can handle the terror of knowing you might plummet to your death if you sleepwalk ten feet.
In Wagarashi, there are several Skill trees into which you can invest your hard-earned Skill points. All of them are viable, and that’s why choosing which one to focus on can be challenging. To help you make the right choice and answer all other questions related to Skill trees and Elements, we prepared the following Wagarashi Element and Skill tree guide.
Wagarashi Skill Trees Explained
In total, there are eight Skill trees in Wagarashi: Earth, Fire, Lightning, Water, Wind, Kenjutsu, Medical, and Tai. By investing Skill points (SP) into these trees, you can unlock special Skills (Jutsus) available through them. Also, every SP increases the effectiveness and the damage of related Skills. With every two Skill points you spend in any tree, you get to choose one new Skill to unlock. And, every five points, you get to pick a new Talent, which grants passive bonuses.
How to Get, Spend, and Reset Skill Points
In the tutorial, you can learn the basics of spending Skill Points in Wagarashi.You can learn a new Skill with every two points spent on any of the Skill trees.
In Wagarashi, you get one Skill point every time you rank up, which you can do by simply gaining XP. To spend your Skill points, use the inventory key and expand the menu on the right using the little arrow on it.
There are multiple ways to reset the Skill points you spent in Wagarashi. Firstly, you can use one of the Wagarashi codes to reset your Skill Points instantly. However, doing this will clear out the items in your quickbar. So, make sure to move items and materials to your inventory before resetting your SP. Next, you can reset your Skill points in the Shop by spending $349 Robux. Lastly, you get a free Skill point reset whenever you change your Clan, either when using codes or Robux to do that.
How to Find Out Your Elemental Affinity
You can buy the Chakra Paper at the Shop NPC in each of the villages.Hold out the Chakra Paper and use it to learn your Elemental affinity.You can see your primary and secondary Elemental affinity in the upper-right corner of the Info panel.
Each character in Wagarashi has an affinity for two random Elements. So, when you use those Elemental Skills, they deal more damage. By using Chakra Paper, you can check your primary and secondary Elemental affinity. Chakra Paper is available at the Shop NPCs in each major Village. Now, unfortunately, the only way to change your Elemental affinity is to reroll it using Robux.
Deciding Which Element Skill Tree to Invest Skill Points In
When deciding which Element Skill tree to invest your Skill points in, there are two things to consider: your Elemental affinities and your Clan. In general, you should first spend your SP on leveling up the Skill tree of your primary Element. Then, invest SP into the Skill tree of your secondary Element, or any other Skill tree you like.
Each of the five basic Elements is associated with a specific Village, just like in the Naruto manga/anime series.
Now, most Clan Skills in Wagarashi are also Elemental-based. So, you can invest points into the Element that matches your Clan. Alternatively, you can save up Skill points until you verify your Elemental affinity. Then, based on what it is, reroll your Clan using codes or Robux until you get a Clan that matches your primary Elemental affinity.
However, ultimately, you will get enough SP to invest in multiple Skill trees. So, it is fine to experiment on your own. As a reference, here is a list of Elemental Skill trees in Wagarashi, their pros and cons, and the SP requirement of the last Skill in each of them.
Because you unlock a new Jutsu only once with every two rank-ups, it will be hard to unlock all of the Skills in Elemental trees like the Earth one. So, it is a good idea to level up a tree until you can unlock the last Skill in it. Then, invest SP into another tree, and the high SP requirement Jutsus from the previous one will appear when choosing which Skill to unlock.

07/05/25 A representative working on behalf of Activision has contacted PCGamesN directly to confirm that this leak is not true.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is rumored to lock limited-time events, and the associated rewards, behind a battle pass paywall. That’s according to one recent leak and fans are, unsurprisingly, not happy about the possibility of having to pay to access these game modes.
It’s long been rumored that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is getting a sequel, one which picks up the story of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. However, one leak suggests this as-yet-unannounced FPS game’s multiplayer mode could feature an unwelcome change.
Posting on X/Twitter, leaker The Ghost of Hope stated that Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 will feature more limited time events and game modes. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’s events are a fun way of shaking things up, and they also offer exclusive player rewards. From Activision’s perspective, they help raise engagement with the game.
But, according to the leaker, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7’s limited time events and modes won’t be free. “The only way to play the LTMs will be to have the battle pass unlike how it’s currently free for everyone.” So, most if not all of these modes will allegedly be exclusive to battle pass purchasers.
The Ghost of Hope has been on the money before and, if true, this could lose Activision a lot of goodwill. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has mixed reviews on Steam, and fans have a lot to say about this alleged move.
Responses to the tweet range from skepticism through to boiling rage, some drawing comparisons between this alleged move and a recent Black Mirror episode. Your average Call of Duty player might not spend a fortune on battle passes and cosmetics, but if player numbers dwindle to such a point that the big spenders move away, Activision could have a problem.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 has yet to be officially announced, but if you’re playing the current entry, we’ve got the best BO6 weapons and the best BO6 loadouts.

Ice Code Games, creator of Hard West 2 and last year’s Rogue Waters, has made a niche for itself in mashing up tactical combat design with supernaturally-infused historical settings. Hard West and its sequel take place in a 19th-century American West haunted by demonic creatures whereas Rogue Waters offers strategic pirate swashbuckling in monster-filled seas. Now, the studio is continuing in a similar vein with the announcement of its latest project, a blend of Hunt Showdown and XCOM 2 called Nightmare Frontier.
Nightmare Frontier looks, at first blush, like a spiritual successor to the Hard West games. It, too, is a kind of strategy game set in the American West, where players have to contend with bloodthirsty monsters. From this foundation on up, though, it takes a pretty different approach, adding a risk-reward focused style of design to Hard West’s formula.
In Nightmare Frontier, players control a group of desperate scavengers in a mission to find and collect loot in a town regularly attacked by creatures called Dreadweavers. As in extraction shooters like Hunt Showdown, the scavengers have to decide how long to fight off enemies, gathering increasing rewards as the danger grows, before it’s time to escape or risk losing what they’ve gained. When the player isn’t fighting, they’ll need to craft and upgrade their gear from the resources they’ve gathered and unlock new skills in preparation for their next round of combat.
Nightmare Frontier is set to launch in Early Access on Steam this summer. Wishlist it or find more information on its Steam page right here.
Otherwise, you can bide the time between now and Nightmare Frontier’s launch by taking a look at our picks for the best horror games and best action-adventure games already out on PC.

GTA 6 has just gotten a second trailer. Yep, I repeat, trailer two is here, this is not a drill.
Of course, it does come after the game’s release was delayed last week. After all the speculation it might be pushed back and Rockstar sticking to that vague Fall release window for ages, GTA 6‘ll be dropping on May 26, 2026.
“We are very sorry that this is later than you expected,” Rockstar wrote in its Newswire post announcing the delay last week, “The interest and excitement surrounding a new Grand Theft Auto has been truly humbling for our entire team. We want to thank you for your support and your patience as we work to finish the game.
“With every game we have released, the goal has always been to try and exceed your expectations, and Grand Theft Auto VI is no exception. We hope you understand that we need this extra time to deliver at the level of quality you expect and deserve.

This is a breaking story, so we’ll add more deets soon.
How does being an Oblivion Remastered vampire work? We get it, sometimes you need to add a little sparkle sparkle to your life in Cyrodiil. And what better way is there to do that than to inherit the skin (and powers) of a supernatural killer?
Whether you’re looking to become a vampire in Oblivion Remastered or need to cure vampirism before you have to cancel that sunny holiday to Hammerfell in the RPG, we’ve got everything you need to know about the affliction. To help you make that big decision, we’ve even broken down what makes becoming a vampire in Oblivion worth it, as well as the pesky drawbacks (silver) bolted on.
How to become a Vampire in Oblivion
You become a Vampire in Oblivion through the Porphyric Hemophilia disease.
This is contracted by taking damage from an afflicted person or creature, such as vampires in dungeons like Memorial Cave southeast of the Imperial City, Crowhaven northwest of Anvil, or one of the many named forts you’ll find infested on your travels.
One easy location is in the Imperial City itself. Head down into the Imperial City sewers through the town’s many floor grates, follow the tunnels until you arrive under the arena’s Bloodworks, and you should find two vampires there.
You’re also given the open opportunity to become a vampire by Vicente Valtiera at the end of the Dark Brotherhood questline.
The effects only kick in once you rest in a bed 72 hours after the event. This makes dealing with it early much simpler than leaving the wound to fester.
How to cure Vampirism in Oblivion Remastered
To cure Vampirism in Oblivion Remastered, you have two options depending on the state of the disease. You can either consume an item with Cure Disease (or visit a shrine) within 72 hours of the bite or, if you’ve already succumbed to it, by speaking with Raminus Polus at the Arcane University in Skingard and completing the lengthy Vampire Cure questline.
The Cure Vampire questline is a long fetch quest involving five empty Grand Soul Gems, Bloodgrass, Garlic, Nightshade, the Blood of an Argonian, and the Ashes of Hindaril. Here’s how to get each item:
Item
Location
Grand Soul Gems (x5)
Sometimes found in dungeon loot (when above level 11) or stolen from display cases.
Bloodgrass (x2)
Tall red grass is commonly stocked at Alchemy stores or found growing by Oblivion gates.
Garlic (x6)
A common sight in houses or sold at shops and inns
Nightshade (x5)
Found around the West Weald or bought at the Alchemy shop in the Imperial City.
Argonian Blood
Stab an Argonian with the Enchanted Dagger.
Ashes of Hindaril
Kill Hindaril in Redwater Slough.
After turning in the ingredients to complete the quest, Melisande will provide you with the Cure for Vampirism potion. Use it from your Potions tab to be cured, becoming immune to Vampirism in the process.
While you can contract the Porphyric Hemophilia disease after being cured this way, it acts like a standard debilitating debuff and can be removed through normal means. Sleeping while afflicted won’t turn you back into a Vampire.
Is it worth becoming a vampire in Oblivion?
Becoming a Vampire in Oblivion has various benefits and drawbacks, like resistance to damage, bonuses to Strength, Willpower, Speed, Acrobatics, Athletics, Destruction, Hand to Hand, Illusion, Mysticism, Sneak, access to unique skills, and a chronic aversion to sunlight.
These pros and cons can fluctuate, with the benefits growing stronger the longer you go without feeding, though amplifying the cons of being a servant of the night as well. Here’s a breakdown of the pros and cons:

Given you only take damage from the sun at Stage 2 of hunger, you can maintain some of the benefits of being a Vampire in Oblivion while maintaining the ability to sit in the sun by feeding every day.
Feeding once will return you to Stage 1 (25%) no matter which stage you’re currently on.
Becoming a vampire doesn’t unlock any unique quests outside of the one needed to cure you.
You won’t attract unwanted attention from anyone for being a vampire, but you will need to limit your exposure to the sun at higher levels. This can make exploring Cyrodiil (and taking on quests) uniquely difficult.
Where are the best places to feed as a Vampire in Oblivion?
If you’re looking to avoid making a spectacle of your need to consume the blood of other humanoids, it’s best to target places where hosts frequently sleep.
Camps and inns make feeding easy for this reason. The unlucky victims are unlikely to notice, witnesses are scarce, and you won’t have to worry about the sunlight.
If you can’t handle the thought of completing a lengthy sidequest to right the wrong of becoming a vampire, take a break with the best RPGs on PC right now.

Ghoul://RE Kagune List
Below is a complete and detailed overview of Kagune in Ghoul://RE, sorted by rarity and usefulness:
How to Unlock Kagune in Ghoul://RE
To unlock your Kagune, you’ll need to collect 5000 RC first. You can earn RC by eating Humans or Ghouls using Ctrl + B. Eating Ghouls gives you slightly more RC, so keep that in mind while farming.
To check how much RC you’ve gathered, head to the Hospital and speak to the NPC inside.
Instead of roaming the map and attacking anything you see, it’s much more efficient to farm RC while completing quests. Quests reward you with additional loot and EXP, and some of the loot can even be used to gain more RC.
The Mission board In Anteiku.
If you’re playing as a Ghoul, you can find Quest Boards at the following locations:
In front of Anteiku
First floor of Helter Skelter
Can’t find them? Just press P to open the map—it’ll show all important locations, including the Quest Board.

Road to Vostok, a punishing FPS coming to Steam Early Access, has received some major improvements. These range from dynamic seasons to a new game mode that’s only for the most hardcore of players, in case you thought the likes of Stalker 2 and Escape from Tarkov weren’t challenging enough.
It’s going to be a while before Road to Vostok hits Steam Early Access, but the developer of this brutal survival game has revealed just what’s in store for future players. They’ve spent the last few months making some major, major updates to this game and punishing doesn’t begin to describe it.
That’s not to say that Road to Vostok has to be complete hell. Its solo developer, Antti, makes it clear that you can tweak this post-apocalyptic experience as you see fit. But their development update video has me grinning at the prospect of diving into it at maximum difficulty, if only once. Unlike Escape from Tarkov, this is a single-player title so there’s no-one coming to your rescue.
The half-hour video, which you can watch below, highlights a host of improvements Antii has implemented. Dynamic seasons is one stand-out, with each season lasting a set number of days. You can opt to stay in one season, or progress through the full gamut, it’s up to you.
If you’re a fan of grenades, you’ll be happy to hear you can now choose the hand position you use to hurl them. Another welcome tweak lets you prioritize magazines with the most bullets; based on what we’ve seen, every bullet counts in Road to Vostok.
There are plenty of visual upgrades, too, from grass to trees and beyond, something to look up at when you’re bleeding out. But it’s Road to Vostok’s Ironman mode that really has our attention. This mode will throw you into a map without a single item. Combine this with the seasonal options, and you can start the game in the freezing cold, with absolutely nothing to your name.
Antti has yet to give a date when Road to Vostok will enter Steam Early Access, but they estimate they’re about halfway there. If you’re a fan of Escape from Tarkov, Stalker or anything with a gloomy Eastern European flavour, this is one to watch.
