The Soul Tyrant moves quickly, so be sure to grab what Soul you can when you can. Heal before you dive down to join the Soul Tyrant for the second phase. Get in what Soul Spell attacks you can, but don't try to predict what the Soul Tyrant might

All this time at home means more time to play great games and catch up on the backlog of missed games, (though everyone should be putting their health and health of others first), so it's important that Sony brings the goods each month with PlayStation Plus for this and a variety of other reasons. Here’s our complete PS Plus free games wish list for April 2

But players will quickly realize that they can’t wear all the charms they want. The Knight starts with 3 notch slots, and each charm takes up a certain amount of these notches. As with charms, players can collect more notches through purchase, defeating certain enemies and explorat
Players take control of Juan Aguacate, a luchador a.k.a. a Mexican professional wrestler, on a quest to save the "Mexiverse" from Salvador, a corrupted luchador from the Darkest Timeline.

But regardless of the number of notches the Knight has, this notch system forces players to pick and choose which charms to equip at any one time. This encourages players to change out their charm loadout through the game and to tailor their charm combinations depending on the situat

Dash through Sly's ground attacks and follow it up with some Soul spells to maximize your damage. You can Nail Pogo off of Sly's Cyclone Slash attack. There is a brief window to attack Sly in between his own attacks, so be qu
The charm of Hollow Knight is something that has already been discussed in detail, and this charm is what makes most of the characters in Hollow Knight feel as fleshed out and endearing as can be. Interacting with any of the numerous NPCs present all across the world of Hollow Knight is always a highlight of the game, and adds moments of levity to an experience that is generally quite nerve-wrack
