I’ve fallen hard for Tavern Keeper, a sim where you manage an inn in a fantasy realm filled with halflings, orcs, and elves, serving drinks, cooking meals, and dealing with occasional devastating fire or insect infestation. Despite only entering early access just last week (after more than a decade of development), it’s already beloved among…
The most notable thing about this year’s list of PC Gamer’s highest review scores is what doesn’t appear on it. Many of the games that are in the running for one of our Game of the Year awards aren’t represented, including Elden Ring Nightreign, Battlefield 6, Europa Universalis 5, Arc Raiders, and Clair Obscur: Expedition…
The last update to Path of Exile 2 helped turn things around after developer Grinding Gear Games soured players with a gigantic pile of nerfs in the previous patch.

It’s already been a little over a year since Diablo 4’s first expansion, Vessel of Hatred. In that time, the game has gone through several seasons. And just like last time, it’s about to make sweeping changes to loot that feel like table-setting for an expansion-level update. Blizzard released a roadmap at the start of…
The next Battlefield 6 patch is squarely aimed at its most annoying bugs. As promised by DICE lead producer David Sirland last week, the quality-of-life update will address the gun dispersion issues, incorrect vehicle spawns, the unstoppable lock-on missile, and most notably, the “drone hammer” bug that let players levitate on command. That last bug…
The past weekend was a big weekend for Arc Raiders, which Embark Studios says surpassed 700,000 concurrent players across all platforms. “It’s been a little over one week since we opened up the tunnels for you to head Topside, and this past weekend we reached over 700,000 concurrent Raiders on the surface!” Embark wrote on…
After a long fallow period, Konami’s back on the Metal Gear bandwagon in a big way. The Japanese publisher dipped its toes back in with Metal Gear Solid: The Master Collection Vol. 1 in 2023, which after a year of patches turned out pretty good, before this year brought the excellent remake Metal Gear Solid…
