Nintendo doesn’t want to “force” creativity. We’ve heard Nintendo dismiss the idea of a Mario Maker style Zelda game in the past and even though it’s been a while since the last update, it seems the Japanese video game company still isn’t keen on the idea. Speaking to Polygon recently, series producer Eiji Aonuma explained…
This new LEGO line launches in 2024. Earlier this year in October, Nintendo announced five Animal Crossing LEGO sets would be launching in March 2024. While there’s already been plenty of official pictures of these sets shared, we’ve now got a “first look” at the cute and charming packaging. These designs have been revealed by…
Now that The Finals has been out over a week and lots of people are still playing, its burgeoning community is grappling with a question that we all ask of our preferred shooters at some point: is it too sweaty, and is it skill-based matchmaking’s fault? It started last week, when developer Embark Studios released…
Remember the guy with the balls so big he sued Amazon and JRR Tolkien’s grandson, claiming they infringed on his Lord of the Rings fanfic with the Rings of Power TV series? In a shocking turn of events that no one (except literally everyone) saw coming, he lost badly and now owes the Tolkien estate…

Every Switch game on sale that got a 9/10 from us. The festive season is finally upon us and Nintendo’s European eShops are getting into the spirit of things the only way that they know how — with a festive sale, of course! This year’s Festive Offers sale has brought a sack-full of discounts to…
We’ve all had frustrating experiences in multiplayer games. Heck, it’s not that unusual for the worst of them to upset you in real life for a brief spell, and perhaps inspire some intemperate messages or uncivil voice chat. But for one Diablo 2 player, KrimzontheRed, the insult dealt by a bunch of gankers in the…
Alan Wake 2 certainly isn’t afraid to be weird, whether it’s letting you change the layout of a level at the press of a button, or suddenly turning into a full-blown musical. Making a game so wilfully out there must be a nerve-wracking experience, however, as you’ve got no idea whether your kooky ideas are…
