As initially revealed back in the September Direct, this is the same old co-op cooking chaos that we all know and love, garnished with…
Fraser Brown, Online Editor (Image credit: Future) This week, I mostly ignored my PC in lieu of being on holiday, and now I am filled with rage. I’m not really a PvP boy. It’s not that I’m friendly, but I am absolutely cowardly. Gimme some AI to stomp, rather than a sweaty gamer who might—god…
Despite building a career on writing, Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser says he’s “less scared than a lot of people” about LLMs and AI worming their way into videogame development and beyond.

World of Warcraft: Midnight is doing something pretty huge—with Blizzard taking aim at the game’s combat mods, also known as AddOns, by making changes to the API (which feeds them the info they need to work). Other UI mods will stay untouched, but anything that gives you an overt advantage in a fight? It’s being…
Suri: The Seventh Note is a rhythm-action platformer and our love letter to the games we grew up playing and adore. Set in a magical world, it features music-infused platforming gameplay, unlockable movement abilities, and dramatic escape sequences set and synchronised to an epic soundtrack.

As today is launch day, we now know who to thank for such musical bangers, and it’s none other…
Mellow yellow. Atari has done an excellent job of mining its illustrious past in recent years, giving us the Atari 2600+ and the Atari 7800+ – as well as a selection of brand-new carts to play on them. The company’s big release for Christmas 2025 takes a slightly different approach, however; rather than give us…
Peak‘s new Roots biome dropped yesterday, adding a forest of redwood trees and gigantic bouncy mushrooms that will inevitably spell your untimely demise. But tucked among the trees and mushies is a lot more challenge than the rest of the game really offers—despite the icy winds, scorching heat and rising fog that other biomes throw…
Ready to roll. Nintendo has released its first batch of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond amiibo, including ‘Samus’ and ‘Samus & Vi-O-La’. A third, ‘Sylux’, will launch alongside the game itself on 4th December 2025. We’ve managed to get our grubby little mitts on Samus & Vi-O-La, and we thought you might like to take a…
AI has been up to some naughty things in the past few years. From ignoring copyright to producing pretty awful approximations of games, to being exploited to lock down your machine. It seems like, as AI gets smarter, it only gets easier to use in malicious ways. One piece of malware has even been spotted…
