The evenings may finally be getting lighter, but the Frost Giants who rule this frigid land have yet to be driven back into their icy lairs. If this was the floating city of Columbia (as seen in the spectacular story-driven shooter Bioshock Infinite, this month’s cover-star) we’d simply quaff the pyrokinetic vigor known as the Devil’s Kiss and turn them into Puddle Giants instead. Alas, we must resort to the meagre compensation provided by thermal underwear and sneaky swigs from a hip flask while the editor isn’t looking. But at least we can all settle down with the latest issue of PC Gamer and vicariously experience the blue skies and gruesome immolations of Bioshock Infinite through Tom Francis’ gigantic hands-on feature.
Not only this, but Allods players can beat the chill by donning a few extra in-game layers, purchased with the £4 of item cash that comes with the magazine.
