Now the Dead Space series' most iconic weapon has been turned into a real-life collectible you may display on your wall....

Dragon’s Dogma 2, like its predecessor, has no lock on. You have to manually crank the camera to land your hits, which for some, is a dealbreaker. Luckily, modders have been fast at work and made a downloadable add-on for PC players. Simply titled"Lock-On Combat", alphaZomega’s mod alters the camera so that if you press down on the right analogue stick, you’ll keep your attention on whatever enemy you’re facing. you may also double-tap the circle button to perform a Thief Dodge, and there are new settings to alter the camera’s distance from your character as well as a slow-motion parry option for fighters....

As Atlus revealed 3 Reloadon every full moon after announcing the game, I jittered with excitement the closer it got.
