Your Achievements
Here’s what you in our community have been up to this week:
- Andrewww has been continuing on his journey through The Oter Worlds, and dipped into Ghost of Tsushima for the first time. He also “gave in” and got a second PS5 for the household to avoid having to squabble over who gets to play when!
- And TSBonyman is getting toward the end of Elden Ring, so he’s been dragging it out for as long as he possibly can. He’s still preparing for life after defeating it though, grabbing the first Remnant game on sale.
That’s the round up for this week. We’ll be back in full after the bank holiday for more gaming news and more. See you then!
