I’ll be honest, friends: I’m thick with cold and I’d like this day to end. Maybe you can help me make that happen. Once I’m done here, I’m going to crawl under a blanket and play something comforting that will distract me until bedtime. So I’m here to ask: what’s your comfort gaming for when

Last year, Epic Games intentionally broke Apple’s rules by putting its own payment processing system in the iPhone version of Fortnite, bypassing Apple’s 30% fee and giving players a V-bucks discount. Apple responded by kicking Fortnite off the iOS App Store, while Epic launched a lawsuit and PR campaign declaring the iPhone maker “anti-competitive.” The

“What games should I get for my PlayStation 5?” This is the question we’ve been asked the most since Sony’s new generation of gaming arrived last November. People want to see what games are the best showpieces of PlayStation 5’s power, and also which ones take their beloved medium to new heights. Although the PlayStation

It sure feels like deck-based games are having a moment right now, and if that’s something you’re into maybe spare one of your moments to look at Cross Blitz.

Following the reveal of Lost Judgment, an interview with Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio director Toshihiro Nagoshi and producer Kazuki Hosokawa has surfaced on IGN. Lost Judgment brings Ryu Ga Gotoku back to its action-combat roots, leaving many fans to wonder if that meant the Yakuza series would also return to that style following last year’s Yakuza:

As Charles Caleb Colton said back in the days of the Commodore 64: “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”. But what must also be remembered is that without imitation we wouldn’t have innovation, and without innovation we wouldn’t have variety. Dwarf Fortress, iconic for its deep, emergent gameplay and ASCII graphics, actually innovated on games like

Minecraft Blackstone is to Cobblestone what Batman is to Superman. That is to say that it’s much cooler, edgier, and way more fashionable. It writes poetry in the corners of philosophy books, it gets embarrassed by its parents a lot because they just don’t ‘get it’, and it’s always talking about the abyss and the

Resident Evil Village’s titular small town isn’t the ideal bucolic getaway. I’d advise doing the opposite and getting away from it, as far away as you can, but first we’ve got a family to rebuild. With lycans, stinky fish men, and a 10-foot tall vampire on your butt, it’s not gonna be easy.  Here’s a

While CSGO is the prettier, more polished version of the same set of ideas, so many of the maps, so much of the feel that I loved, isn’t present in the latest iteration. The original Counter-Strike is still available to play, but its final

World’s End Club is a new survival adventure game, and it has some pedigree behind it. It comes from the minds of Kotaro Uchikoshi and Kazutaka Kodaka, both known for some of the more twisted and entertaining narrative-focused adventures with the Zero Escape and Danganronpa series, respectively. To get a taste of their new mystery that

AMD’s upcoming RDNA 3 GPU architecture won’t be with us until 2022 or 2023, but it looks like it could pack a serious improvement over the current best graphics card from its Big Navi range. Replying to claims that the future flagship GPU could see a 2.5x performance boost over the Navi 21 chip found

The Outriders inventory wipe bug was one of several hugely annoying problems with People Can Fly’s divisive looter shooter at launch, but now, a little over a month later, it looks like affected players will get their stuff back. Not everything will be returned, but most of the gear that counts should be accounted for.

The list of lovely looking action-y games I was looking forward to this month took a big hit when Deathloop got delayed, but thank goodness action cat RPG Biomutant is still coming. I’d worry that I’ve jinxed it now, but today’s new gameplay and character creator videos have me feeling pretty confident that Expreiment 101

The Mass Effect Legendary Edition is dropping soon, and to celebrate, BioWare just dropped a ton of free Mass Effect content for fans to enjoy. From being able to craft your dream squad to chilling to some space beats, it’s a good week to be a member of the Normandy.  So what’s free, you’re asking? 

Looking for a list of the best platform games on PC? Back in the ‘90s and early ‘00s, there were countless platformers for console gamers, while the PC had a reputation as a sort of wasteland for this one particular genre. Thankfully, this stigma has lessened since the days of Commander Keen, and we owe

Flashback was a cinematic platformer that came off as a blend of Prince of Persia and Another World when it released back in 1992. It’s a bit of a cult classic: it looked quite impressive back in the ‘90s and it still kinda does, with its fluid rotoscoped animation and colourful sci-fi backdrop. It was

Flashback 2, the sequel to 1992 rotoscoped platformer Flashback, has been announced and has original creator Paul Cuisset at the helm. In a press release, Cuisset notes that, “Developing a sequel to Flashback is an idea I’ve had for a very long time.” There is, oddly, no mention in the press release of the last

Late last March, Microsoft revealed two new Xbox Series X wireless controllers with the Electric Volt (which looks almost radioactive) and the Daystrike Camo Special Edition controller. Electric Volt became available last month to order and now it’s the red camo design’s time to shine.  The Daystrike Camo wireless controller is more in-line with previous

Wolfenstein: Blade of Agony is one of the biggest GZDoom wads ever made—it may even be the biggest. But “wad” is a misnomer really, because this 30 level outing looks more like an entirely new game. The project has been six years in the making, and during that time 15 volunteer modders from all over

After it was delayed last year, the animated show based on League Of Legends is getting closer to a premiere. Riot have announced that the series will be coming to Netflix this autumn with a short teaser trailer.

Today, a surprise announcement from Sony President and CEO, Jim Ryan reveals that Discord has indeed forged a

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is one of the best PC RPGs of all time, so the thought of modding it sometimes feels like garnishing a kingly steak with ketchup (and not even Heinz). But the best Witcher 3 mods really do make for an even better game—or at least a more convenient or different

Once again, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is back at the top of the Steam top sellers list. The battle royale game is currently on discount, leading to a surge in new players.

I played a lot of Valorant in the two weeks after its release and enjoyed myself immensely. Then I got yelled at by a teammate and never played the game again. Now Riot say they’re going to start recording in-game voice comms so they can analyse it and “take action against players who use voice
