When you launch Rematch for the first time, a little pop-up will warn you that the game is “best experienced with a controller.” After ignoring that to see how it felt with my beloved mouse and keyboard, I’m not sure I agree; while the mouse controls take some getting used to, they may be preferable…
Someone had to do it: An exceptionally skilled Elden Ring Nightreign player has soloed all eight Nightlords (and the new enhanced boss) as its squishiest character. And if my eyes don’t deceive me, I think they did all of them in a row. Reddit user PotatoFoSho calls it the “solo gremlin challenge” in reference to…
Sloclap’s 5v5 soccer game Rematch came out strong yesterday, racking up nearly 93,000 concurrent players on Steam alone—impressive by any measure, and particularly so for a Thursday afternoon. Today the studio put an even bigger number on the scoreboard, saying Rematch pulled in a million players in its first day of full release. “One million…

FBC: Firebreak did not live up to the hopes we had for it. But, as we noted in our 60% review, “many of Firebreak’s problems are fixable. A thorough balance revision would immediately improve the experience.” In an update posted on Steam today, Remedy said that’s exactly the plan. After the usual ‘thanks for the…

It might not be immediately apparent, what with its pompous music and brutal murder of Patrick Stewart, but The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion is a very funny game.
