Around this time last year, on the day of the April fool, Palworld made a funny little jest towards the gaming public—what if we do an extremely original joke and say we’re making a visual novel? He he, ho ho, wouldn’t that be a laugh. I can only imagine the meeting that followed where, staring…
As part of the latest Windows Insider Preview build, Microsoft has announced that it’s testing a feature called ‘quick machine recovery’ to prevent widespread outage-related failures. That’ll likely be referring to the CrowdStrike bug then, but Microsoft’s new methodology looks like it might be a promising new way to treat bootlooping nightmares yet to pass….
It won’t have escaped your notice that in recent years, Nvidia has been transitioning away from being ‘just’ a chip designer into a fully-fledged systems integration company. If you want a massive data centre or a host of AI servers, Nvidia will design and build the whole thing for you. And now it seems AMD…
This might be the best fishbowl case on the market right now. That’s a bold statement, I’ll admit, but I’m prepared to back it up. And okay, I suppose it’s probably not a huge surprise, either, given how Lian Li practically invented the entire category to begin with. Its now legendary PC O11 Dynamic was,…
Remember Baldur’s Village, that charming Baldur’s Gate 3 mod for Stardew Valley? It was the one that crammed all the best parts of Larian’s opus in ConcernedApe’s opus, letting you romance Shadowheart and Astarion but, like, on a farm this time.

It’s only been a few days since Inzoi launched, but I’m already floored at how flawlessly some have managed to master its tools, like the Create-a-Zoi or build mode. Granted, there was a demo out for both those things in the week prior to Inzoi’s release, but my dozens of hours doesn’t even come close…
Minecraft is set to launch the Happy Ghast mob this year, and unlike its ghostly companions we’ve spent hours upon hours avoiding in the Nether, these guys actually have a use in the game. You won’t need to gear up when you’re face to face with one as they won’t shower you with fireballs, and…
Developer BitReactor has been particularly coy about its upcoming Star Wars game. Though it was first announced in 2022, and the studio’s since talked to us about its aims for the game and its ambitious vision for turn-based strategy, it’s yet to make any official reveal of the game’s premise, talk in specifics about its…
One last time. As some of you might be aware, there’s a new console on the horizon. In two short days, Nintendo is set to pull back the curtain a little more on Switch 2, officially graduating the hybrid consoles that currently sit in our hands to the title of ‘Switch 1’ (a name we’re…
Deadline reports that an eight-figure bidding war has erupted over the rights to a new thriller novel from a surprising authorial team: the world’s best-selling author, James Patterson, and the world’s biggest YouTuber, Jimmy “MrBeast” Donaldson. The pair have apparently co-authored the novel, though I think we’re all hoping Patterson did the heavy lifting, and…
