Assassin’s Creed Shadows has been delayed again, as part of a “strategic update” that will see it “review and pursue various transformational strategic and capitalistic options to extract the best value for stakeholders.” “As part of the renewed focus on gameplay quality and engaging day-one experiences, it has been decided to provide an additional month…
It’s been a minute, but the Savage Planet franchise continues! We’re back for number two… same folks, same franchise, same studio, but with a new name: Raccoon Logic. Formerly Typhoon Studios, we originally developed Journey to the Savage Planet (originally released in 2020 and currently available as part of the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog). Now…
A little over two years ago, I was taking my first run in Vampire Survivors, walking around a barren plain smashing skeletons with my whip. Now it’s 2025, and I’m stitching together a chain of chimpanzee spines and tentacles to connect to my third brain, so I can make it through the next round of…
I’ve had my eye on Astrohaus Freewrite products for a while. The company has made all kinds of keyboard-and-screen devices that are designed to eliminate distractions and allow you to get down to just writing.

It was first to three over five possible maps, and despite dominating most of their team fights, Cloud9 lost. Badly. Two of their three losses were due to repeatedly pulling a…
Eh, what’s up Dock? When Nintendo released the 3DS, it equipped all new game cartridges with a plastic nub, preventing them from being inserted into your classic clamshell. Why are we bringing this up as ‘Switch 2’ leaks reach fever pitch? Because accessory manufacturer Genki (the talk of the town this week) has claimed that…
For all of the great games released in 2024, it was a year that felt somewhat bereft of major blockbusters. Instead, last year was the perfect time to explore your niche—getting lost inside something new and hyperspecifc. To the point that, when the PC Gamer team came together to decide our Game of the Year…
Once upon a time, a 16:9 laptop screen was enough. Well, at CES 2025 Lenovo posed the question ‘Why settle for enough when you can have height?’ Either with the press of a button or by holding your palm up to the onboard webcam, the screen of the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable laptop extends…
