Ancient wyrm (Image credit: Future) Getting Drakan to run today on modern hardware is tough, especially so as no official remake or remaster exists (come on GOG!) If you own an original copy of the game, though, like I do, then I advise you to peruse the downloads section of the awesome and long-running Drakan…
The Bell Beast is the first main boss you’ll encounter after leaving the starting area in Silksong, and it might give you quite the challenge until you master its moves. You’ll find this cute (and terrifying) critter at the top of The Marrow, near the map merchant Shakra, as well as the path to Mosshome….
Hunter’s March is one of the first real nightmare areas in Hollow Knight: Silksong; it’s a real test of your air-dash jumping skills, but it’s also filled with terrifying red ant samurais and ninjas, and there’s a tough-as-nails boss waiting at the end in the Chapel of the Beast to flatten you into paste. If…
“Christopher Nolan wanted nothing to do with this game”. It’s been no secret in the past that the now shuttered Warner Bros. Games studio Monolith was at one time working on a Batman game prior to the release of The Dark Knight Rises. Over the years, we’ve had a detailed documentary about the project from…
We’re a week out from Marvel Rivals Season 4 now, but before we can all enjoy the arrival of a new Vanguard and map, there’s still some time to grind the battle pass and competitive, if you’re brave enough. But before you do that, it may be a good idea to check out the new…
Hollow Knight: Silksong has been out for—let’s see—19 hours and 43 minutes at the time of writing, so it’s time to absolutely snap the whole thing over our knees. The speedrunning community is already at it (via Eurogamer) with Silksong, rapidly uncovering a myriad of techniques that we’ll all one day gawp at during an…
Even though the game was announced barely a month ago, the makers of Football Manager 26 have already spilled the beans about what kinds of gaming PCs will be able to run the next entry in the two-decade-old series. And the good news is that the entry requirements to a world of obsessing over stats…
Beating the Fourth Chorus in Hollow Knight: Silksong requires you to put on your thinking cap, though admittedly only at a jaunty angle. This is the first boss you’ll face in Silksong that actually has a bit of a gimmick, and you’ll have to do something very specific to conclude the fight. It doesn’t help…
Managing expectations. After an exceptionally long wait, Hollow Knight: Silksong is out now on the Switch and Switch 2, and perhaps one of the most pleasantly surprising aspects of its launch is its price. You’re looking at $19.99 / £16.75 / €19.99 / ¥2300 for the new release which, given the sheer length of its…
Trying to find Hokers in Hollow Knight: Silksong is part of the Flexile Spines quest you get from the Seamstress in her balloon in the Far Fields area. It’s also kind of urgent, as you’re basically trapped in the areas near her until you do, since she crafts you the item you need to use…
