If Hollow Knight: Silksong is too easy for you, or you’ve finished it and want further punishment, there is a much more difficult way to play it: on Steel Soul Mode. In the original Hollow Knight, accessing Steel Soul Mode meant defeating the main game at least once. In Silksong the same is true, except…
Local release date TBA. Remember how R-Type Tactics I • II Cosmos by Granzilla was meant to be coming to the Switch this year? Well, it’s now been delayed (again). In an update during a live stream, the developer announced the title would be arriving on Nintendo’s hybrid system in 2025 instead of Fall 2024….
Before booting up Zexion on my Steam Deck last weekend, I made a grievous error: I looked it up on YouTube and saw that someone had finished the game in three hours. Did I immediately intuit, as someone well-versed in the sicko behavior of gaming speedrunners, that three hours was probably a really fast clear…
Blizzard struck gold last year by taking an old World of Warcraft expansion and turning it into a Diablo-style action RPG where you become an unkillable god—a level of power not normally possible in the MMO—and earn a bunch of goodies to bring back to the regular game at the end. Mists of Pandaria Remix…
The Into the Unjust update that hit Helldivers 2 earlier this month sent the tireless forces of Super Earth deep into Terminid territories. There, they were met with the Rupture strain: new varieties of burrowing bug enemies that proved to be an immediate source of controversy by mercilessly kicking people’s asses.

Characters named Jack are so common that Jeff Bridges and Kevin Bacon have each played characters named Jack seven times, Tom Cruise has been a Jack three times, and even Jack Nicholson—our most…
Zelda and Link are back once more. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is the next game in the Zelda series, and it’s coming to Switch 2 on 6th November. Blending the hack-and-slash style of Koei Tecmo’s Warriors series with the world of Hyrule, Link and Zelda will be opening cans of whoopass once more in…
In a surprise announcement last month, Ubisoft revealed that 2023’s Assassin’s Creed Mirage would be receiving a hefty free DLC. A new map and quests for a two year-old game, and no charge? Such largesse is only possible thanks to the involvement of Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF), which has made many gaming investments…
We’ve long been fans of Logitech’s sim racing lineup, given that you can get in on the ground floor with something affordable, like the gear-driven Logitech G923, or go all the way up to the very expensive (and very brilliant) Logitech G Pro Racing Wheel and G Pro Pedal set. Up until now, however, there’s…
Low-profile rapid trigger keyboards are a bit of a niche on a niche, but given faster actuation and less key travel, it makes sense why someone more competitively minded may want to pick one up. Well, Logitech has you covered; it’ll just cost you $170. Will that be cash or card? Announced and launching today,…
