Every new Diablo feels more like a multiplayer game than the last, with co-op as the intended experience and solo play as a vestigial limb. There’s a reason the last two Diablo games have been always-online. Yet there are still a significant number of players who enjoy them as entirely singleplayer experiences, and some of…
Stardew Valley creator Eric Barone knows his fans are eager for his next game, Haunted Chocolatier, and that some of them are disappointed in the apparent lack of progress and news on that front.

Okay, be honest; you’ve probably not finished too many full campaigns in the Civilization series. It’s okay, neither have I—there’s always some reason to tap out and start fresh. We’re not alone, and Firaxis has the numbers to prove it. Answering an assortment of interview questions from our sagely Council for The PC Gaming Show:…
In October, as Capcom completed its months-long PR world tour with a Monster Hunter Wilds appearance at New York Comic Con, I managed to steal enough time to speak with Kaname Fujioka, the executive director and art director of Wilds.
