OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro Review: Surprisingly Good

Published

on

OnePlus does not just make smartphones anymore and over the years, it has experimented and expanded its range of products. It now has a fairly wide ecosystem of devices, which recently also saw the addition of a tablet. From an ecosystem point of view, it is only missing a computer. Adding to this long lineup of smartphones, TVs, monitors, smartwatches, audio gear, clothing accessories (which also includes a fanny pack), is a mechanical keyboard called the OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro. OnePlus tied up with the mechanical keyboard specialists at Keychron to design it.

While I will explain in detail as to why this keyboard is a bit different, like many others I also assumed that it was a rebadged Keychron Q1 Pro. The Q1 Pro is a unique offering as it offers the best of two product lineups — a premium full metal keyboard merged with the ease and convenience of wireless connectivity — giving one the best of both worlds. All of Keychron’s Q-series premium lineup was only offered with a cable until then, which meant that buyers had to choose between a premium-looking and great sounding customisable keyboard, versus a plastic-bodied keyboard that’s focussed more on connectivity and customisation.

After using the OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro for more than a month, here’s what I think of it.

OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro price in India and box contents

The OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro is available in two options which basically comes down to the type of what switch you prefer. There’s the Winter Bonfire option which comes with PBT keycaps and tactile switches that oddly have red-coloured stems and is priced at Rs. 17,999. The Summer Breeze option is priced a bit higher at Rs. 19,999 and comes with a rather unique Marble Mallow keycaps (which are supposed to be flexible) and linear switches with stems that are strangely blue in colour. The option you choose is basically the name of the switch, which is a result of OnePlus’ collaboration with Keychron.

The OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro comes with usual cable, keycap and switch puller along with extra tools and spares, which is a nice touch

 

The colours chosen for the switches are a bit odd as the red colour of the Winter Bonfire switch is usually used to signify silent linear switches, while blue colour of the Summer Breeze switch is normally used to signify linear but clicky (read: noisy) switches. Switch makers usually go with brown for tactile switches. So, be careful what you select when you pick one as the colours are very misleading and are different from the standard colour coding for basic mechanical switches.

Apart from the usual keycap and switch puller, OnePlus has a quality braided USB Type-C to Type-C cable which can be used to connect the keyboard to your system for a much higher 1,000Hz polling rate (compared 90Hz with wireless) and a USB Type-A to Type-C adapter as well. Also included with the Keyboard 81 Pro is a hex key which matches the screws used on the case. OnePlus also throws in a few extra screws for the stabilisers and 4 extra gasket foam strips as well, in case they happen to wear out.

There is no real difference between the two keyboard options when it comes to cosmetic design. The only visual cues are the darker grey keycaps used on the alphanumeric keys, directional keys and some function keys on the Winter Bonfire option, which I received for review. The Summer Breeze option inverts the whole theme and uses light grey keys for the majority of the layout, leaving the dark grey keys for the remainder.

The colour scheme of the keycaps and case are typically OnePlus

 

Yes, I will agree that grey, white, and red are typically OnePlus colours and there’s the bright red coloured keycaps on the escape key (with a OnePlus logo) and the enter key will remind many of OnePlus smartphones. But that’s pretty much where the OnePlus branding fizzles out as Keychron too sells its Q1 Pro in a very similar-looking Shell White finish complete with red keycaps for the escape and enter keys.

While many may comment that OnePlus could have toned down its branding a bit, those who will end up buying the Keyboard 81 Pro might end up customising it with custom keycaps anyways and the basic aluminium (grey) case seems like a decent starting point for the same. But yes, I feel OnePlus could have gone with more contrasting colour options out of the box.

To me, the colours of the keycaps lend the keyboard a bit of a retro-modern feel. The customisable acrylic knob at the top right corner stands out a bit but thankfully, it does not have RGB. There’s a chrome casing which surrounds it and the navigation keys makes it look very unique from anything that’s currently out there when it comes to pre-built keyboards.

The Winter Bonfire option comes with PBT double-shot keycaps

 

While the wedge-shaped layout of the metal keyboard case is similar to the Keychron Q1 Pro with bigger overhangs with the top case on all sides, OnePlus adds a beautifully finished chrome fold out stand (with rubber stoppers) which it calls a ‘keyboard holder’ at the back. It adds a classic touch to what is mostly a modern looking keyboard in terms of its overall appearance and is really useful for those who are looking for that extra incline as it can raise the height of the keys by an inch. The standard Keychron Q1 Pro does not have this feature. OnePlus calls it a keyboard holder because it lets the Keyboard 81 Pro stand up on its top edge helping declutter an office or work desk when you need that extra space.

The OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro offers a proper 75 percent layout, so it is a big keyboard overall. However, given the larger overhangs on the top case, it almost feels as big as an 80 percent Tenkeyless (TKL) layout. Indeed, this is not a keyboard which was designed to go into a backpack. At 1.8kg it is quite heavy. But all of this heft is necessary to deliver that well-tuned typing experience which is targeted at those who are looking for a well-built pre-built keyboard to place on their desks and nowhere else.

OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro performance

Since this is a fully-assembled pre-built keyboard, you can only choose between the two cosmetic options that are limited to two switch types when purchasing one. This is a contrast compared to the plethora of options Keychron offers with the Q1 Pro on its international website (since it’s not available for purchase in India). The Winter Bonfire keycaps are the regular double shot PBT ones. They have a nice rough texture that avoids grease and remained shine-free during the review period during which I used it every day.

The Keyboard 81 Pro has a very practical ‘keyboard holder’ which doubles up as a fold-out stand to adjust the keyboard’s incline

 

Since I use a mechanical keyboard (albeit a budget one) on a daily basis, it’s easy to tell the huge difference between using a Keychron K6 (priced at Rs. 8,499 onwards) with Gateron G Pro Brown switches and a OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro with its Winter Bonfire switches. Every keypress has a nice tactile feedback which is at the beginning of the keypress. The switches need a bit of force when pressing them down, but with a travel distance of just 3.3mm (2.2mm pre-travel), registering keypresses was pretty quick.

This also meant I could type quite fast and accurately. Given that these are custom-made switches, OnePlus has done a fantastic job with them, given it’s their first go at building a keyboard and will hit the sweet-spot for many. Writers or coders will prefer tactile switches because of the tactile bump. However, if you don’t prefer the tactile bump or the toned down clicky sound, do check out the summer breeze option which has quieter switches that are better suited for gaming because of their lower operating force and increased travel distance.

Our review unit came with the tactile Winter Bonfire switches

 

The switches are mounted on a PCB plate which is double-gasket mounted or suspended with foam-like gaskets to avoid making contact with the keyboard case. This reduces unwanted noise and vibrations. This keyboard uses 10 gaskets in all, five on either side of the PCB, and this along with the additional PC plate and case foam results in a toned-down and dampened clicky sound which I found quite satisfying and good for a pre-built keyboard. And if you aren’t too happy with the sounds this keyboard produces, you can always hot-swap the switches with your favourite ones.

One detail I think OnePlus left out was a custom palm rest. I used a Keychron one which I had lying around at home. But I highly doubt it’s possible to use the Keyboard 81 Pro without a palm rest given its height.

I’m not a big fan of south-facing RGB lighting and the OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro, just like the Keychron Q1 Pro, has them. The PBT keycaps aren’t of the shine-through variety so you will need an overhead lamp to light up the keyboard when working in a dark space. The lighting pattern presets can be toggled by pressing down the function key along with the ‘Q’ key.

Colours of these patterns can be altered by pressing down function along with the ‘E’ or ‘D’ keys. The patterns seemed a bit limited compared to a regular Keychron keyboard, but these are all customisable using the VIA keyboard software, which will need your keyboard to be physically plugged into your machine when customising the lighting, macros and layers. The knob too is customisable. It defaults to increasing or decreasing system volume and can mute it when pressed down.

There are also some subtle software tweaks included like a power saver mode which switches on after the battery gets exhausted and the keyboard cannot fire up the RGB lighting anymore. It’s indicated by a blinking red light under the spacebar. The RGB lighting, although not as smart as Logitech’s MX series keyboards, will turn off automatically after five minutes when not being used. Connectivity is quite solid and I used it wirelessly, connected to a Mac Studio during the review period. During this time it never disconnected, which is downright impressive for a third-party keyboard. The Keyboard 81 Pro can be connected to three separate devices, with switching done by pressing down the function key and 1,2 or 3 numeric keys.

Battery life is also quite solid for a wireless keyboard. The 4,000mAh battery lasted me six workdays (9 hours each) with RGB lighting fully lit and on maximum brightness. Beyond this the keyboard lasted two additional work days in power saver mode (sans backlighting) until it switched off. With the backlighting turned off, OnePlus claims that its keyboard will last up to 300 hours (or about 7.5 work weeks) on a single charge, which is still impressive for a regular RGB laden keyboard.

The multi-function knob apart from looking great also defaults to volume and mute functions

 

It’s no competition when pitted against the Logitech MX Mini Mechanical we reviewed recently, which is priced similarly but comes with low-profile switches. The MX lasted two whole months on a single charge thanks to its sensor-equipped backlighting system with a basic white backlight. However the use-case for this keyboard is very different (portable and compact) compared to the Keyboard 81 Pro (desk work).

Since this keyboard will be sitting at your desk, delving into charging times seems pointless. Regardless, I still tested it out and it took a good six hours to fully charge when connected to a 65W PD GaN charger.

Verdict

When it comes to premium mechanical keyboards in India, you can either choose to settle for a pre-built one from a short list of manufacturers who officially sell them here, or you can choose the right parts, line-up for group buys, wait and finally assemble the keyboard of your dreams yourself. However, there’s no guarantee that you will not cross the Rs. 20,000 mark to build that thocky or creamy-sounding keyboard.

The OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro, like many other Keychron keyboards, is meant for those who want a mechanical keyboard for the typing experience, but don’t want to get their hands dirty or dig-deep into the business end of it.

With that said, the OnePlus Keyboard 81 Pro sure finds itself in a very advantageous position in the Indian mechanical keyboard scene. That’s because importing such high-end pre-built mechanical keyboards into the country is still quite the challenge. Keychron being the only premium mechanical keyboard manufacturer to offer a decent selection of its products in the country has also over the years garnered quite the following.

While Keychron is quite slow when it comes to releasing its new products in India, it almost seems like it purposely avoided launching its Q1 Pro keyboard out here because of this collaboration with OnePlus.

In short, you can either choose to import a Keychron Q1 Pro via the customs route (which may or may not work out depending on your luck) and you will end up with a keyboard customised to your tastes at a cost of roughly Rs. 16,500 (sans customs or duties). Or, you could simply go for its OnePlus-branded counterpart which can be purchased from Rs. 17,999. Thankfully, it isn’t just limited to branding but also packs in some nice, unique upgrades (switches, fold-out stand, keycaps, design) as well.

I am quite impressed by what OnePlus has achieved thanks to inputs from its inner circle of testers and Keychron. What is also interesting to see is how OnePlus managed to design and create its own take of the Keychron Q1 Pro and also got most of it right in the first go, despite having no experience with building keyboards. In fact, I like this one so much, I can’t wait to see what OnePlus pulls off with the next one!

Perplexity AI अपने खोज मंच पर विज्ञापनों के साथ प्रयोग करना शुरू करता है

Published

on

एपिनेम्ट आर्टिफिशियल इंटेलिजेंस (एआई) सर्च प्लेटफॉर्म के पीछे की कंपनी पेरप्लेक्सिटी एआई ने मंगलवार को घोषणा की कि वह इस सप्ताह विज्ञापनों के साथ प्रयोग करना शुरू कर देगी। पहले की एक रिपोर्ट में कंपनी के राजस्व को बढ़ावा देने के लिए वर्ष के अंत तक विज्ञापनों को शामिल करने की कंपनी की योजनाओं पर प्रकाश डाला गया था। AI फर्म का कहना है कि ADS को एक ऐसे प्रारूप में दिखाया जाएगा जो प्लेटफ़ॉर्म के उपयोगकर्ता अनुभव को अव्यवस्थित या बर्बाद नहीं करता है। इसके अतिरिक्त, यह उजागर किया गया कि सभी विज्ञापनों को उपयोगकर्ताओं को सूचित करने के लिए प्रायोजित के रूप में चिह्नित किया जाएगा जब एक विज्ञापन प्रदर्शित किया जा रहा है।

खोज परिणामों पर विज्ञापन दिखाने के लिए कितनी गड़बड़ी की योजना है

एक ब्लॉग पोस्ट में, एआई-संचालित खोज इंजन ने इस बात का विवरण साझा किया कि यह कैसे सेवा पर विज्ञापनों को लागू करने की योजना बना रहा है। यह दावा करते हुए कि यह एसईओ उद्योग के “उपयोगकर्ता उपयोगिता की कीमत पर अपनी रैंकिंग में सुधार करने के लिए मनमानी रणनीति” के उपयोग की नकल नहीं करेगा, पेरप्लेक्सिटी का कहना है कि यह इसके बजाय एक प्रारूप में विज्ञापनों को दिखाएगा जो “पारदर्शी” है और एक ब्रांड के बारे में उपयोगकर्ता की जिज्ञासा उत्पन्न करता है।

Perplexity ADS को “प्रायोजित फॉलो-अप प्रश्न” और “भुगतान मीडिया” के रूप में एक उत्तर के पक्ष में प्रदर्शित करेगा। ADS में एक प्रश्न शामिल होगा जो सीधे ब्रांड के प्रसाद में देरी करता है। एआई फर्म ने यह भी कहा कि यदि कोई उपयोगकर्ता प्रायोजित प्रश्न पर क्लिक करता है, तो प्रतिक्रिया ब्रांड द्वारा लिखी या संपादित नहीं की जाएगी, और इसके बजाय पेरप्लेक्सिटी के एआई का उपयोग एक प्रामाणिक उत्तर उत्पन्न करने के लिए किया जाएगा।

कंपनी ने यह भी खुलासा किया कि वास्तव में, होल फूड्स मार्केट, यूनिवर्सल मैककैन और पीएमजी इसके शुरुआती ब्रांड पार्टनर हैं, और उपयोगकर्ता आने वाले दिनों में इन फर्मों के विज्ञापन देखने की उम्मीद कर सकते हैं। जबकि इस सप्ताह अपने विज्ञापन परीक्षण शुरू करने की योजना है, वे केवल अमेरिका में रहने वाले उपयोगकर्ताओं को दिखाए जाएंगे।

Perplexity का कहना है कि विज्ञापनों को दिखाने के लिए कदम इसे राजस्व उत्पन्न करने और अपने प्रकाशक भागीदारों के साथ साझा करने की अनुमति देगा। Perplexity प्रश्नों की प्रतिक्रिया उत्पन्न करने के लिए अपने लेखों और डेटा का उपयोग करने के लिए प्रकाशन कंपनियों की साझेदारी करने वाली कंपनियों को भुगतान करती है।

“अनुभव ने हमें सिखाया है कि अकेले सदस्यता एक स्थायी राजस्व-साझाकरण कार्यक्रम बनाने के लिए पर्याप्त राजस्व उत्पन्न नहीं करती है। विशेष रूप से यह देखते हुए कि हमारा प्रकाशक कार्यक्रम कितनी तेजी से बढ़ रहा है, विज्ञापन एक स्थिर और स्केलेबल राजस्व धारा सुनिश्चित करने का सबसे अच्छा तरीका है,” पेरप्लेसिटी ने कहा।

Apple के मैक कंप्यूटरों ने AI पीसी बाजार के 60 प्रतिशत पर कब्जा कर लिया, विंडोज एआई पीसी शिपमेंट Q2 2024 में 12 प्रतिशत बढ़ा: कैनालिस

Published

on

मार्केट रिसर्च फर्म कैनालिस की एक रिपोर्ट के अनुसार, Q2 2024 में आर्टिफिशियल इंटेलिजेंस (एआई) पीसी के ग्लोबल शिपमेंट्स बढ़े। 8.8 मिलियन से अधिक एआई-सक्षम कंप्यूटर डिवाइस निर्माताओं द्वारा भेज दिए गए थे, और Apple के मैक कंप्यूटरों में इन उपकरणों के अधिकांश के लिए जिम्मेदार था। इस बीच, इन कंप्यूटरों को अपनाने से कथित तौर पर 2024 की दूसरी छमाही में बढ़ने की उम्मीद है, क्वालकॉम के स्नैपड्रैगन एक्स चिपसेट श्रृंखला के लॉन्च के बाद, जो कि एआरएम आर्किटेक्चर और शक्तियों पर आधारित है, जो हाल ही में ओईएम की एक सीमा से कॉपिलॉट+ पीसी लॉन्च की है।

AI पीसी शिपमेंट Q2 2024 में बढ़ता गया

Canalys की नवीनतम रिपोर्ट से पता चलता है कि Apple सिलिकॉन चिपसेट द्वारा संचालित मैक कंप्यूटर Q2 2024 में AI पीसी शिपमेंट का 60 प्रतिशत हिस्सा बनाते हैं, जो सभी विंडोज एआई कंप्यूटरों की तुलना में काफी अधिक था जो एक ही अवधि में सिर्फ 40 प्रतिशत शिपमेंट से कम थे।

Apple के सभी वर्तमान-पीढ़ी के कंप्यूटर विंडोज कंप्यूटर के विपरीत M-Series चिप्स से लैस हैं जो अभी भी कुछ गैर-एआई-केंद्रित प्रोसेसर के साथ जहाज करते हैं। हालांकि, अधिकांश ग्राहक इस साल के अंत में या 2025 की शुरुआत में Apple इंटेलिजेंस सुविधाओं के आगमन के साथ अपने मैक हार्डवेयर की AI क्षमताओं का पूरी तरह से लाभ उठा सकेंगे।

जबकि Apple ने इस तिमाही में अधिकांश शिपमेंट की कमान संभाली थी, विंडोज एआई पीसी शिपमेंट्स ने बाजार अनुसंधान रूप के अनुसार, 127 प्रतिशत की वृद्धि की। इस सेगमेंट में ओईएम के बीच, लेनोवो के योग स्लिम और थिंकपैड लैपटॉप्स ने अपना हिस्सा 6 प्रतिशत तक लाया, जो डेल के बाजार हिस्सेदारी की तुलना में थोड़ा कम था, जो अपने इंस्पिरॉन, एक्सपीएस और अक्षांश मॉडल के साथ 7 प्रतिशत है। इस बीच एचपी ने अपनी एलीटबुक और ओमनीबूक कोपिलॉट+ पीसीएस के लॉन्च के बाद 8 प्रतिशत बाजार हिस्सेदारी की कमान संभाली।

रिसर्च फर्म यह भी नोट करती है कि क्वालकॉम की स्नैपड्रैगन एक्स सीरीज़ चिपसेट केवल जून में लॉन्च की गई थी, जिसका अर्थ है कि Q2 2024 में इन एआई-सक्षम कंप्यूटरों की पर्याप्त इकाइयों को जहाज करने के लिए ओईएम के लिए एक बहुत छोटी खिड़की थी।

हालांकि, इन कंपनियों ने इन आर्म चिपसेट को आगामी उत्पादों में शामिल करने के लिए प्रतिबद्ध किया है, जिससे वे उच्च प्रदर्शन और अधिकांश x86 चिप्स की तुलना में अधिक दक्षता प्रदान करने में सक्षम हैं। कैनालिस के प्रमुख विश्लेषक ईशान दत्त ने कहा, “अब एक मजबूत नींव के साथ, एआई-सक्षम पीसी शिपमेंट 2024 की दूसरी छमाही में आगे कर्षण प्राप्त करने के लिए तैयार हैं।”

Spider-Man 2, Assassin’s Creed Mirage, and More: New Games on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X in October

Published

on

October is here and the month brings a non-stop train of game releases. It is perhaps the busiest month in gaming this year, with major titles fighting for space in the tight window of four weeks. Kicking off things on October 5 is Assassin’s Creed Mirage, Ubisoft’s next chapter in the long-running assassin’s saga. This time, the game opts to shrink its scope and return to its roots with a more stealth and assassinations-based approach. The last three AC titles had adhered to a Witcher 3-style expansive RPG style, drawing criticism for open-world bloat.

Later down the month, we’re getting perhaps the biggest exclusive release on PlayStation this year. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, featuring both Peter Parker and Miles Morales as playable Spider-Men, releases October 20. On the same day, we’re also getting the next Mario game from Nintendo. Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Nintendo’s first side-scrolling entry in the series since 2012’s Super Mario Bros. U, will feature a dynamic level design that can be interacted with to affect gameplay.

On October 27, Remedy Entertainment will release Alan Wake 2, the survival horror absurdist sequel to 2010’s Alan Wake. Remedy never shies away from making it weird and expect Alan Wake 2 to build upon its predecessor’s David Lynch-inspired nightmarish mystery. October also sees big-name releases like Detective Pikachu Returns, Forza Motorsport, and Sonic Superstars. It is indeed a jam-packed month.

Here are our picks for the biggest games coming to PC and consoles in October 2023.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage

When: October 5
Where: PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X

Old-time fans have been yearning for a condensed Assassin’s Creed game since the franchise shifted towards an open-world RPG format for years. The ninth-century set Mirage seems to be the cure for that itch, putting you in the shoes of Basim Ibn Ishaq, a cunning thief who joins the enigmatic ‘Hidden Ones’ clan and trains under his mentor Roshan to become a prolific assassin, navigating the bustling streets of Baghdad via seamless parkour. Stealth is back in trend, letting you blend in with civilians as you devilishly stalk targets and strike like a snake when the chance presents itself by brandishing hidden blades. Perform air assassinations, eavesdrop and pickpocket NPCs, or send out your eagle to scope out locations from above to become a versatile assassin.

Gone are the complicated levelling systems bloated with numbers and stats, and Assassin’s Creed Mirage instead presents an arsenal of tools — throwing knives, traps, smoke bombs, and more — which can be upgraded in efficacy to best suit your playstyle. Pick up contract jobs if you’ve got time to kill, or simply rest on benches and beds to fast-forward time until night for more sneaky executions. Ubisoft has indeed gone back to its roots this time, which is amusing to think, considering this game started life as an Assassin’s Creed Valhalla DLC, before becoming its own thing to fill a gap in its release schedule.

Detective Pikachu Returns

When: October 6
Where: Nintendo Switch

Detective Pikachu Returns is a sequel to the 2016 game Detective Pikachu, which was a critical and commercial success. In it, players will take on the role of Tim Goodman, a young man who is searching for his missing father. Along the way, he will be helped by Pikachu, a talking Pokémon who is a detective. Together, they will solve a series of mysteries and uncover the truth about Tim’s father’s disappearance. The game is set in Ryme City, a bustling metropolis where humans and Pokémon live together in harmony. The game features a large open world that players can explore, as well as a variety of puzzles and challenges to solve. It is a fun and interactive game that is sure to appeal to fans of the original game as well as anyone who enjoys a good mystery.

One of the things that makes Detective Pikachu Returns so enjoyable is its charming and witty dialogue. Pikachu is a hilarious character, and his interactions with Tim are always entertaining. The game also features a number of other memorable characters, including a talking Psyduck, a detective Chimchar, and a fashion-conscious Mr. Mime. The puzzles in Detective Pikachu Returns are challenging but fair. They require players to use their problem-solving skills and their knowledge of the Pokémon world to progress. The game also features a number of minigames that are sure to keep players entertained.

Forza Motorsport

When: October 10
Where: PC. Xbox Series S/X

One of the most anticipated games in the racing genre this year, Forza Motorsport aims to build on the success of Forza Motorsport 7 with improved handling and more realistic car physics. You’ll be able to compete in over 500 cars on 20 well-known racetracks. You’ll also be able to customise your builds with fuel and tire strategy as you take on the competition.

Developer Turn 10 also says that “no two laps feel the same” on Forza Motorsport, thanks to driving conditions including dynamic weather and changes to lighting based on the time of day, as well as on-track scoring. You can also gain up to 800 performance upgrades and take on other players in the Featured Multiplayer events while being protected by Forza Race Regulations.

Lords of the Fallen

When: October 12
Where: PC, PS5, Xbox Series S/X

Another promising souls-like gracing this year is Lords of the Fallen, a reboot of the eponymous 2014 game, that’s heavily selling its next-gen, Unreal Engine 5-powered visuals. In it, you play as a fabled Dark Crusader, tasked with venturing the tarnished lands to thwart the demon God Adyr’s resurrection — a feared return that would bring darkness to the kingdom of Mournstead. Drawing from FromSoftware’s games, RPG foundations are crucial to your journey, as you build a character from a choice of nine classes — ranging from Rogue, Knight, and Fire Apprentice — which may eventually devolve into something outlandish and hybrid based on what weapons or spells you pick up on the way. Expect fast and challenging combat that keeps you on the edge of your seat, as you’re mesmerised by the colossal boss battles that suck you in with epic music.

The coolest thing differentiating Lords of the Fallen from Souls games is the inclusion of a blue-tinted lamp that lets you intermittently step between two parallel worlds. We’ve got the realm of the living Axiom, and Umbral, a realm of the dead which is teeming with all kinds of corrupted, overtly vicious monsters. Opening these tears in space unveils hidden pathways, alongside solutions to puzzles that are otherwise inaccessible. Repeated deaths are a core part of the souls-like experience, and so every time you die in the living world, you’ll wake up in the Umbral realm, essentially serving as a second chance. Fall once again, however, and you’ll be forced to backtrack all the way from the last checkpoint.

Sonic Superstars

When: October 17
Where: PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, Nintendo Switch

Sonic is a revered franchise with a legion of dedicated fans who swear by the classic games in the series. The iconic blue hedgehog returns to zoom and jump through intricate levels in Sonic Superstars. Following the open-world 3D approach of Sonic Frontiers, Sonic Superstars will go back to a side-scrolling design. The game will feature four playable characters and follow their adventures through mazy levels as they take on Doctor Eggman, Fang the Hunter, and Trip the Sungazer.

Sonic Superstars’ campaign will also feature local co-op for up to four players who can jump in and out of the game. The platformer will also include a PvP feature for both local and online play. The game comes out across PC and consoles on October 17.

Hellboy Web of Wyrd

When: October 18
Where: PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X

Replicating a bold, comic book art style faithful to Mike Mignola’s works, Hellboy Web of Wyrd looks to be a mighty fine rogue-lite. The titular crimson-coloured demon with an indestructible hand is thrust into a fascinating, ever-changing dimension when a B.R.P.D. agent goes missing, leading to encounters with nightmarish creatures and homunculi, all the way to tanky bosses that guard doorways. Unlike the fast-paced affairs seen in Hades, combat is significantly slower and methodical here, coaxing you into memorising attack patterns to better dodge or parry them, and anticipating long wind-ups before hits land.

And of course, dying in the Wyrd realm sends you back to the starting point, where you can chat with other agents to progress questlines, before repeating the cycle and uncovering the larger conspiracy that surrounds the Butterfly House. Throughout your runs, you acquire charms that grant bonus perks like causing increased injury or the ability to reflect enemy damage back, which should help overcome challenges in the long term. Then again, roguelites are notorious for their steep difficulty curve, so it’ll take some trial and error before you have a good sense of what boons are actually superficial.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

When: October 20
Where: PS5

Developed by Insomniac Games, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is a sequel to 2018’s Marvel’s Spider-Man and follows Peter Parker/Spider-Man and Miles Morales as they team up to stop the monstrous new threat in town, the symbiote Venom. Peter is now a more experienced Spider-Man, still struggling to balance his personal life with his superhero duties. Meanwhile, Miles keeps procrastinating on his college entrance essay, while trying to carve his unique identity as Brooklyn’s saviour. The open-world map has also doubled in size, expanding past the East River to include the Queens and Brooklyn boroughs.

To help cover that distance, we’ve got deployable Web Wings that help both Spider-Men glide across cities seamlessly — feel free to web swing every now and again for better momentum. Furthermore, players can switch between either hero instantly, regardless of where they’re located to complete tasks or take on tenacious baddies terrorising civilians. Yep, there are several of them ranging from Kraven the Hunter to Mysterio, and more. This sequel promises to deliver even more action and adventure than the first game and is sure to be a hit with fans.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder

When: October 20
Where: Nintendo Switch

Super Mario Bros. Wonder marks the first traditional 2D side-scrolling entry in the last 10 years, introducing absurd power-ups that turn you into an elephant, for one. Despite the more-HD aesthetic, the Flower Kingdom’s got all the classic Mario jazz such as secret items, coins, green pipes, and snoozing Goombas to stomp upon, as you storm through levels. But wait, what’s the goal here? Well, the villainous Bowser is back and has magically merged with a castle, turning into a horrendous aircraft, of sorts, wreaking havoc across the kingdom.

Scattered around its seven key zones are Wonder Flowers, which upon interaction, completely change the look of your world in an almost trippy animation causing pipes to come alive, tossing a stampede of enemies at you, or even tilting the camera to limit your chances of success. There are three main power-ups this time: the Elephant Fruit lets you slap foes around with your trunk, Drill Mushroom to burrow into the ground, and the Bubble Flower to blow light floating bubbles to capture and defeat enemies from afar. What’s even better is that Super Mario Bros. Wonder doesn’t limit you to using Mario — you can play as Princess Peach, Princess Daisy, Luigi, and Toad. Support for multiplayer is also included.

Ghostrunner 2

When: October 26
Where: PC. PS5, Xbox Series S/X

This upcoming first-person slasher title lets you step into the shoes of Jack as he fights against an AI cult in a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk world. The events of Ghostrunner 2 take place a year after the fall of the Keymaster in the first title and will let you explore the world around Dharma Tower. The game introduces interactive boss fights, a completely reworked player progression system, and new game modes that weren’t present on Ghostrunner.

This upcoming title will feature a synth-wave soundtrack that will help set the mood as you take on challenging enemies as a cyber ninja. You can take advantage of new katana combat mechanics that will allow you to take on your cyberpunk opponents. They will prove to be more challenging as they can now respond based on the skill you use as you fight to defeat your enemies and attempt to save humanity.

Alan Wake II

When: October 27
Where: PC, PS5, Xbox Series S/X

13 years have passed since the best-selling novelist Alan Wake was trapped in the nightmarish Dark Place, fighting to stay sane and writing an ending to his horror story. For the uninitiated, Alan’s stories/writings manifest as reality around him, though for some reason he hasn’t been able to write a happy ending yet. Meanwhile, in the real world, we follow FBI agent Saga Anderson, who’s on a mission to investigate a series of ritualistic murders in Bright Falls. Both our protagonists’ fates intertwine when Saga stumbles upon pages from Alan’s horror story, with the locale soon spiralling into a nightmarish affair where either character’s actions have a direct effect on the other’s realm.

Unlike 2010’s linear-fashioned take, Alan Wake II is more open and follows a survival horror style that’s similar to the new Resident Evil remakes, brimming with puzzles and environmental storytelling. Players can experience the story through both characters’ perspectives — in any order — while dealing with crazed cultists and supernatural entities using limited resources such as firearms to a simple bright torchlight. And oh, the game’s writer Sam Lake also tags along for the adventure as Saga’s on-field partner.

EA Sports UFC 5

When: October 27
Where: PS5, Xbox Series S/X

Featuring a new Real Impact System, the upcoming EA Sports UFC 5 is set to arrive later this month and promises “realistic blow-by-blow damage”. You’ll be able to see fighters get bloodier as their features deteriorate with each new impact in the game. You’ll be able to get a close representation of pay-per-view events inside the Octagon — the eight-sided competition ring.

As you play EA Sports UFC 5, you will see realistic knockout replays of the ends of your fights in slow motion from various angles. Two new features called doctor’s check and doctor’s stoppage centred around player injuries will prompt the referee to pause the match for a more realistic in-game experience.

एआई एजेंटों के बीच डेटा साझा करने के लिए elevenlabs एजेंट ट्रांसफर फ़ीचर का अनावरण करता है

Published

on

ElevenLabs ने सोमवार को एक नया उद्यम-केंद्रित सुविधा पेश की, जो कृत्रिम बुद्धिमत्ता (AI) एजेंटों को एक दूसरे के साथ संवाद करने की अनुमति देगा। डब्ड एजेंट ट्रांसफर, फीचर एक एजेंट से दूसरे में एक वार्तालाप को स्थानांतरित करता है जब विशिष्ट स्थितियों को पूरा किया जाता है। पहला एजेंट भी पिछले वार्तालाप डेटा को ऑनबोर्डिंग एजेंट के साथ साझा करता है ताकि वह जानकारी को संदर्भित करने और बातचीत को आगे बढ़ाने में मदद कर सके। एआई ऑडियो-केंद्रित कंपनी का कहना है कि यह सुविधा व्यवसायों को विभिन्न विशेषज्ञों के साथ समानांतर एआई एजेंट बनाने की अनुमति देगी।

Elevenlabs एक नई एजेंटिक सुविधा का परिचय देता है

एक्स पर एक पोस्ट में (पूर्व में ट्विटर के रूप में जाना जाता था), एआई फर्म ने नए एजेंटिक फीचर को जारी करने की घोषणा की। एजेंट ट्रांसफर संवादी एआई का हिस्सा है और दो एआई एजेंटों को बातचीत करने और बातचीत साझा करने की अनुमति देता है। यह वर्तमान में उद्यमों के लिए उपलब्ध है, लेकिन कंपनी ने उल्लेख नहीं किया है कि क्या क्षमता की कीमत अलग से होगी या मौजूदा योजनाओं का हिस्सा होगी। ElevenLabs ने यह भी विस्तृत किया है कि कैसे डेवलपर्स एक समर्थन पृष्ठ में संवादी AI के माध्यम से इस क्षमता को कैसे सेट कर सकते हैं।

चूंकि व्यवसाय तेजी से एआई एजेंटों को अपने आंतरिक और बाहरी वर्कफ़्लोज़ में अपनाते हैं, इसलिए डेटा सिलोस से बचने की आवश्यकता है, ताकि सूचना बाकी के लिए अनुपलब्ध होने के दौरान एक व्यावसायिक फ़ंक्शन तक सीमित न रहे। जबकि अलग -अलग एआई दिग्गज केंद्रीकृत डेटा हब बनाने के लिए अलग -अलग समाधानों के साथ आ रहे हैं, ElevenLabs डेटा साझा करने के लिए एक -दूसरे से बात करने के लिए एजेंटों को प्राप्त करने की कोशिश कर रहा है।

यह कैसे काम करेगा दिलचस्प है। कल्पना कीजिए कि पहले एआई एजेंट एक वार्तालाप कर रहा है जो एक वृद्धि या एक परिदृश्य की ओर जाता है जहां इसका ज्ञान आधार मानव उपयोगकर्ता की किसी भी सहायता करने में सक्षम नहीं है। आमतौर पर, एआई एजेंट एक मानव एजेंट को बातचीत करते हैं जो तब बातचीत को आगे ले जाता है, या वे बाद में समीक्षा करने के लिए मानव एजेंट के लिए अनुरोध या शिकायत दर्ज करते हैं।

एजेंट ट्रांसफर के साथ, एआई एजेंट बातचीत को किसी अन्य एजेंट को स्थानांतरित करने में सक्षम होगा, जिसमें उपयोगकर्ता की बेहतर सहायता करने के लिए ज्ञान हो सकता है। पहला चैटबॉट वार्तालाप इतिहास को भी स्थानांतरित करेगा, जिससे ऑनबोर्डिंग एजेंट को अब तक बातचीत का पूरा संदर्भ प्राप्त करने की अनुमति मिलेगी।

एक प्रमुख क्षेत्र जहां इस तरह की प्रणाली व्यवसायों को लाभान्वित करेगी, ग्राहक सहायता विभाग है। उद्यम सामान्य प्रश्नों, तकनीकी प्रश्नों, शिकायतों और इसी तरह से संभालने में सक्षम विशेष एआई एजेंटों का निर्माण कर सकते हैं। इन एआई सिस्टम को समानांतर में चलाकर, व्यवसाय ऑपरेशन को और अधिक अनुकूलित कर सकते हैं, कंपनी ने दावा किया।
