Soundtrack Sunday Welcome to Soundtrack Sunday, where a member of the PC Gamer team takes a look at a soundtrack from one of their favourite games—or a broader look at videogame music as a whole—offering their thoughts or asking for yours! God, Stardew Valley turned 10 this week, didn’t it? That feels sort of wild…
Scraping the bottom of the Pokédex, with love. Given Pokémon’s roaring popularity for three decades straight, it’s a sheer numbers game to figure that each of its titular beasts is someone’s favourite. It’s also true that over 1,000 Pokémon can’t all share the limelight, meaning some are bound to fade into obscurity. While the most…
I did not expect Running With Scissors to announce a new FPS where you play as a victim of one of the massacres depicted in the original Postal. Then again, I find it wise not to expect anything from Running with Scissors. The developer made its name on stoking outrage with its largely terrible games,…
Indie gaming has spent the last decade slowly working its way through the visual and mechanical styles of yore, starting with 2D pixel platformers before moving to boomer shooters and then PS1-era horror games. As such, it was only a matter of time before they began gazing lasciviously at early noughties blockbusters. I was only…
March is on. As we head into the third month of 2026, there’s plenty to be looking forward to once you’ve dragged yourselves away from the shambling hordes of Raccoon City and the two other Resident Evils that dropped on Switch 2 last week. There’s a new Pokémon spin-off, for starters, followed by the return…
After more than two years in development, Teardown‘s hotly anticipated multiplayer will finally arrive in March. It’s no tacked-on affair either, with developer Tuxedo Labs bringing a full suite of options to play with pals in its chaotic destruction sim. Teardown’s upcoming multiplayer options include full co-operative functionality for the hitherto single-player campaign, as well…
Let’s have a rave-up. There’s part of me that still can’t quite believe I’m playing Rave Racer on a home console. Namco’s 1995 sequel to Ridge Racer never made it out of the arcades back in the day, despite promises that it would be ported to PC as part of NEC’s push for its PowerVR…
If there’s one thing cozy games love to do, it’s shifting a release date by a couple days or even a month, only a week before launch. I’ve seen more than one try to pull that over on me in March so far. They probably don’t love it, really, but they sure do it a…
I love a good moan about Fortnite: about Epic Games vaulting my beloved shockwave grenades, about the sorry state of SMGs, and about a baffling update adding off-brand weapons. So I should give credit where credit’s due. Through careful buffs and bringing back some older weapons, Epic Games has curated the best loot pool in…
