Cult of the Lamb celebrates one-year anniversary with Don’t Starve Together crossover

Devolver Digital has announced Cult of the Lamb will be getting its first-ever game collaboration with Don’t Starve Together.

To celebrate the first birthday of Cult of the Lamb, the game will be joining together with Klei Entertainment's multiplayer expansion of the survival game, Don't Starve for an "Unholy Communion."

The collaboration update is available right now and introduces a brand-new game mode called Penitence, where the player must eat and sleep to survive. To make matters more dire, the mode will have a permadeath feature, so once your lamb dies it's over and you'll have to start over. 

Penitence will also bring "another layer of complexity to the dungeon crawling and base management gameplay," on top of the base game.

Alongside a game mode, players can expect to find some Don't Starve Together-themed decorations that will fit right in with the Cult of the Lamb's aesthetic. "They both share a similar visual approach, with 2D artwork in a 3D perspective. That’s why I feel like this crossover works so well," said Jared J Tan, community strategist at Devolver Digital in the official blog post.

Additionally, some characters will be joining the crossover and players will be able to unlock a Webber follower form, which "brings its survival instincts with a unique trait, so it never goes hungry."

Devolver added that after this crossover, Cult of the Lamb will be working on a free major content update "focusing on Cult gameplay" which is planned for later this year, while Don’t Starve Together will be continuing its new "From Beyond" content arc with additional events, content updates, and more.

Cult of the Lamb is now available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

Windows Copilot leak suggests deeper assimilation with Windows 11 features

Key Windows 11 features may soon be customizable as Microsoft further integrates its Windows Copilot AI assistant into the operating system. This tidbit comes from tech news site Windows Latest , which claims to have discovered new .json (JavaScript Object Notation) files within recent preview builds of Windows 11. These files apparently hint at future upgrades for the desktop AI assistant. For example, a “TaskManagerService-ai-plugin.json” was found which is supposedly a “plugin for Task Manager integration”. If this ever comes out, it could give users the ability to “monitor or close running apps using” Copilot. In total, six are currently tested and they affect various aspects of Windows 11. Next, there is an “AccessbilityTools-ai-plugin.json” that gives Copilot a way to “control accessibility [tools]. This would make it "easier for those with [a] disability to navigate through the system.” Third is “ai-plugin-WindowsSettings.json” for controlling important Windows 11 set...

Samsung's ViewFinity S9 may be the monitor creatives have been searching for

Originally revealed during CES 2023 , Samsung has finally launched its ViewFinity S9 5K monitor after nine long months of waiting.  According to the announcement, the ViewFinity S9 is the company’s first-ever 5K resolution (5,120 x 2880 pixels) IPS display aimed primarily at creatives. IPS stands for in-plane switching , a form of LED tech offering some of the best color output and viewing angles on the market. This quality is highlighted by the fact that the 27-inch screen supports 99 percent of the DCI-P3 color gamut plus delivers 600 nits of brightness.  Altogether, these deliver great picture quality made vibrant by saturated colors and dark shadows. The cherry on top for the ViewFinity S9 is a Matte Display coating to “drastically [reduce] light reflections.”  As a direct rival to the Apple Studio Display , the monitor is an alternative for creative professionals looking for options. It appears Samsung has done its homework as the ViewFinity S9 addresses some of...
