The Razer Game Store rewards customers with zSilver loyalty rewards credits for any purchase.

Razer, the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers, today announced a new digital distribution platform for PC games – the Razer Game Store – which goes live globally today.

The Razer Game Store (gamestore.razer.com) offers instant access to thousands of digital games and rewards customers with every purchase. Games are delivered in the form of Steam or Uplay product keys.

With Razer’s global leadership in gaming peripherals, laptops and software, the Razer Game Store is the next step in its expanding ecosystem for gamers.

Get Games, Get Rewarded

When gamers buy games from the Razer Game Store, they get access to exclusive offers, Razer Game Store vouchers, discounted Razer peripherals on the RazerStore or other perks.

In addition, gamers will also earn zSilver loyalty rewards credits with each purchase on the Razer Game Store, including credit card transactions. Paying instead with zGold grants even larger zSilver rewards.

With its unique rewards system , buying a game from the Razer Game Store grants more value than in any other digital store as gamers are then able to redeem their rewards for other Razer products and more each time they checkout.

“As gamers, we know the importance of a good deal and the Razer Game Store delivers that to everyone,” says Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder and CEO. “We have been delighting gamers with our high-performing peripherals, laptops and software, and we’re now also able to provide the content itself that fuels their passion.”

EVGA has gained a lot of familiarity and brand recognition as a manufacturer of graphics cards featuring NVIDIA GPU’s, but the California-based company produces other products designed for PC enthusiasts and gamers. Having been teased for years now, the EVGA Z10 Mechanical Gaming Keyboards is the very first entry into the keyboard market from the longtime manufacturer of graphics card, motherboards and power supplies. Since graphics cards tend to carry less profit margin than peripherals, it is not surprising to see a manufacturer like EVGA try to expand into other markets, as competitive as they already are. Whether EVGA can make a successful entry in the keyboard market remains to be seen, but I am always happy to see more competition, as it only gives the consumers more choice.

Great Speed for a Dynamite Price

By Les Tokar @ The SSD Review

High performance, low power, increased system responsiveness, high reliability, small form factor, minimum weight, enhanced ruggedness along with high data integrity and security; these are the selling points made by HP with respect to their newest HP EX920 M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe SSD. As much as this description might fit any of the latest gen M.2 SSD family, HP has built a product that we believe is going to do very well in the SSD industry, a product that very well might raise more than a few eyebrows.

5 Things You Don’t Know About Mavericks Proving Grounds

By Samuel Leggatt @ Gaming Intel

Mavericks Proving Grounds is set to release later this year. However, not many players actually know what to expect. Here’s 5 things you don’t know about Mavericks Proving Grounds.

1. PLAYERS DROP INTO THE MAP VIA DRONE

One thing that is known for certain is that Drones will be the way in which players will enter the map. With this information we know the game will be set in the near future. Could this mean we’ll see other technological features of a futuristic style? Even if we don’t, deploying from a drone to where your squad wants to start searching for loot sounds exciting.

2. MISSIONS AND OBJECTIVES MID-GAME

In a recent interview Automation Games’ James Thompson described how Mavericks was challenging the ‘boring’ moments of a Battle Royale Mid-Game. Players will be given optional missions and objectives to complete during the game. This could be something like ‘Capture and maintain possession of this particular bridge’ for example. Thompson revealed that players who challenge and complete in these objectives will receive special rewards and loot after the game. This gives players another thing to think about apart from just hiding until the end of the match.

If you’re familiar with the premise of Far Cry–the idea of a one-person army taking on overwhelming hostile forces in large, unpredictable surroundings–then you know exactly what Far Cry 5 feels like. You’ll engage in different styles of offensive conflict; attempt to tame the wild, natural environment to your advantage; and slowly build a guerilla resistance in the background. But for its fifth mainline entry, the series formula has undergone some very positive refinements, which make its core hook of exploring and engaging with its volatile setting a more free-flowing and pleasant experience. It lets you fully enjoy the sights and activities of its beautiful and interesting open-world without too many overt distractions.

The biggest change is that the series is finally confident enough to put you in charge of your own progression. After a brief orientation, the entire region of Hope County, Montana USA is immediately open for exploration. Three intimidatingly large regions surround your starting point, and you’re given only a gentle suggestion of a good first destination. The moment when you’re shown all the equally accessible possibilities and the furthest reaches of the map feels liberating–you may even be crippled by the choice, and that’s a good problem to have.
