Category: Games February 11, 2026 Crafting Speed: The Technology, Creativity, and Art Behind Ride 6’s Track Design Paolo Bertoni, Game Director, Ride 6 Hello to all bikers out there! The wait is finally over: Ride 6 is out tomorrow, and it’s time to rev up and start a new adventure. Over the past two years,…
The first hotly-anticipated farm sim of this year is here and it’s a scorcher. Starsand Island is a crafting-forward life and farming sim where you’ll return to the sunny island of your youth to reconnect with old friends, meet new love interests, and help turn the town into an even bigger tourist destination by—you guessed…
Every couple years we get one: that farm sim game that everyone talks about. In 2024 it was Fields of Mistria and in 2026 I think we’re already looking at this year’s belle of the ball with Starsand Island. It’s taken me 25 hours just to complete my first season in Starsand and I fear…
Intel’s past few series of desktop processors have somewhat of a bad reputation for being power-hungry beasts. Its current range of Arrow Lake chips has reversed this trend, fortunately, but with one top leaker claiming that the next generation, Nova Lake, will hit the 700 W mark, you’d be forgiven for thinking that Intel has…
Yakuza Kiwami 3 and its tie-in game, Dark Ties, release tomorrow, and that might be your lot, at least insofar as Kiwami games go. In a recent Japanese-language livestream spotted and translated by fans on Reddit (and verified by PCG’s crack international cadre), RGG studio boss Masayoshi Yokoyama declared that “I think Yakuza Kiwami 3…
We have lift off. 2026 marks 10 years since the launch of No Man’s Sky, and Hello Games is showing no signs of slowing down on the content front. Today, the studio has launched the ‘Remnant’ update, its first major patch of the year, and it’s expectedly packed with additions. The headliner this time around…
(Or ‘Roll Away’, if you prefer). Of all the puzzle games released on PS1, Game Design Sweden AB’s Kula World (known as Roll Away in North America and KulaQuest in Japan) is one that sticks in my memory, even all these years later. A physics-based puzzler that puts the player in control of a sentient…
After 132 hours of Rogue Trader, I wasn’t sure I had another one in me so soon. Another dense, grimdark RPG set in the miserable far-flung future. But I love that miserable far-flung future, so flinging caution to the wind I took up the mantle of Acolyte of the Inquisition in Warhammer 40k: Dark Heresy….
Last year was a big year for No Man’s Sky. Even we struggle to know how we pulled off so many large updates last year – Worlds Part II and Voyagers were both transformational and released in the same year, interspersed with smaller but significant updates in Relics, Beacon and Breach. As we head into…
Cut above. There was a moment quite early into my time with Pokémon Pokopia where I sat back, exhaled, and said, “Oh dear, it’s got me.” See, I’ve not been too hot on Pokémon games for a while now, and initial trailers for Pokopia suggested that this probably wouldn’t be changing anytime soon. After spending…
