I replayed the opening levels of Dark Messiah of Might & Magic back in March and it still stands up (and then kicks an orc off a wall). That school of first-person physics fantasy is a much-missed flavor of RPG, which is why it’s such a treat to sit down for the trailer of Fatekeeper…
The developer of Green Hell is going to an entirely new kind of hell for their next game. Sentenced to a stretch on an alien world for unspecified crimes, your miserable lot is to find research specimens, build up high-tech industrial infrastructure, and send resource shipments home for your corporate overlords. Could be worse, you…
Making beautiful living spaces in House Flipper seems to be something people enjoy. It’s like The Sims, a place of aspiration and creative joy. But what about a game for those of us who make awful crap heaps for their Sims? Who pinch every penny? Looks like that’ll soon exist: Low-Budget Repairs is an upcoming…
If you’ve been keeping an eye on the pre-purchase page for Battlefield 6 on Steam, you might have noticed two different required file sizes: 55GB for the minimum specs and 80GB for the recommended specs. Such a large discrepancy piqued our curiosity, and we reached out to EA for clarification. “Yes, you will be able…
When I got back in town from vacation, it was a top priority for me to hit Elden Ring Nightreign’s latest rotating “Everdark” superboss, the Augur, aka. Maris, Fathom of Night. “Don’t spoil yourself on it, it’s amazing,” PCG contributor Tyler Colp warned me before we queued up, but with the added caveat that “people…
Microsoft Recall’s security woes have come back to the fore after a test caught the AI screenshotting tool capturing sensitive data (again). Ahead of its public beta release in April, Microsoft made a slew of security updates to Recall, including adding a filter that’s supposed to block Recall from recording passwords, credit card info, social…
If your next Peak run looks impossible, it just might be. On Saturday, dev Aggro Crab posted a screenshot of an impossible-to-reach campfire that spawned on top of an unclimbable tree. Peak is challenging, but it’s not supposed to be quite that challenging. Aggro Crab explained the glitch in a post on X (with a…
A Link to the Millennium. Two of my favourite games growing up were The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past and Secret of Mana. Lush green worlds, curious — and sometimes cute — enemies, and fluid action combat for the time; as someone who had largely only played turn-based RPGs for the first…
In a new video on his YouTube channel, RPG veteran Tim Cain outlined the challenges inherent to remastering Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura, one of the true hardcore sicko legends of CRPGs, and a game that could really use a remaster. Vexingly, it sounds like the dark ritual to reanimate Arcanum is pretty much…
Puck around and find out. It’s not that often that a perfectly good and functional air hockey video game drops. In fact, considering that the grotty arcade staple translates so readily to the sphere, very few air hockey games release in general. One of life’s persisting mysteries, right there. However, fear not Switch 2-owning air…
