“Tonight it’s build or die”. If you missed out on Kotobukiya’s Xenoblade Chronicles X model kit back in 2016, then you’re in luck. The figurine manufacturer is producing a new batch of the Formula Skell plastic model kit, and they’re available to buy from October 2025 (thanks Siliconera!). The announcement coincides with the release of…
Look Outside is like football in that it’s a game of two halves. And in absolutely no other way is it like football, because this is a survival horror RPG about being trapped in an apartment building where your neighbors have been transformed into Cronenberg-esque monsters that are about 90% eyeballs and teeth by weight….
Microsoft has announced DirectX Raytracing 1.2 at the GDC conference with claims of “game changing” performance benefits.

It does feature “unreleased” Metal Slug 3 music, though. Health tech firm Tanita has collaborated with SNK on some rather odd products in the past, producing a $13,000 set of scales that plays King of Fighters. Now, the two companies are teaming up again to create a digital thermometer and hygrometer that looks like a…
