Since the moment Tiktok showed me a video of Super Mario 64 speedrunner CRZ’s “drum%” run, I haven’t looked at my MIDI compatible instruments in the same way. Why just drum, when I could speeddrum? Okay, I’m not going to commit my life to mastering Mario 64 with drumsticks, but that’s just one way to…
Diablo 4 is about to dramatically change as an action RPG, and you’ll be able to play this massive update early via Blizzard’s “PTR”, or public test realm, starting tomorrow. From April 2 to April 9, PC players using the Battle.net launcher (not Steam players, sadly) can get their hands dirty testing out Blizzard’s redesigned…
Over the years I’ve devolved from a fun-loving scamp into a crusty curmudgeon—practically a coot at this stage—when it comes to April Fools’ Day on the internet.

Victory is ours… already? Just hours after Super Earth initiated a major order to finally, once and for all, liberate community-favorite planet Malevalon Creek, Helldivers 2 players have delivered.

Word of the layoffs came in a message from founder and CEO Max Hoberman…
In honor of the day of fools, the latest in extremely niche Stardew Valley modding brings us one player’s vision of a more sensible world: an everything bagel that actually requires everything as an ingredient. How does it all fit into one bagel? I can only assume a blender is involved. Stardew Valley modder SiTheGreat…
Video: An arrangement of images that simulates motion. We’re confident that it’s the next big thing, and PC Gamer needs someone who lives and breathes it to be our in-house video producer at our Bath, UK office. Reckon that could be you? This is the place to start. As PC Gamer video producer, your job…
It will probably come as no surprise that Ubisoft’s free-to-play XDefiant will not be out by March 31—today is April 1, after all, and it’s still not here. In a weekend update on Twitter, Ubisoft acknowledged the game’s latest miss but said a brief server stress test is coming, after which a real launch date…
