I don’t envy the developers of early access co-op RPG Fellowship for having to convince its loyal players that the thing they liked was too good and needs to be made worse for the health of the game. Although many players have enjoyed running its MMO-like dungeons without all the busywork of an actual MMO,…
A weirdly enjoyable side effect of a massive game launch is that it shakes up the most-wishlisted games on Steam. Subnautica 2 has been perched (haha, fish pun) atop the most-wishlisted games on Steam for ages, probably since Hollow Knight: Silksong was released in September 2025. But as of last week, Subnautica 2 is out!…
Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core is the meaner, shootier cousin to the standard DRG experience. As they are wont to do, the space dwarves have dug too greedily and too deep: mining teams are going dark, forcing the company to call in their heavily armed, hyper-lethal problem solvers—the Reclaimers—to apply a more forceful form of…

Hasbro announced the partnership between D&D stewards Wizards of the Coast and Giant Skull just last…
The first Arc Raiders patch since Embark shook up its update schedule has arrived. Major updates are only coming twice a year, but regular balancing changes continue unabated. That’s what we have in patch 1.29.0: Embark is targeting a handful of bugbears while also introducing a new anti-ARC grenade launcher. Perhaps the biggest change for…

But Valve, Half-Life, and the gamers who love it owe something of an unspoken debt to another man, a foundational games industry titan himself, who despite having no despite…
Project Sirius, the Witcher spinoff game that was announced in October 2022 and has struggled ever since, has a new lead writer: Former Bungie senior narrative designer and narrative lead Kwan Perng, who comes to the role after four years of helping to shape the post-launch world of Destiny 2. Perng announced his new gig…

You almost certainly know actor Troy Baker for at least one of his game roles over the past decade. Joel in The Last of Us. Indiana Jones in the Great Circle. The Joker. And if you follow games you’re nearly as likely to know the work of composer Austin Wintory, who’s behind the award-winning music…
Most popular video games eventually end up on platforms other than the one for which they were initially created. Obviously, there are exceptions. You wouldn’t have seen a Super Mario Bros title on a Sega console, just like you weren’t going to see the blue hedgehog on a Nintendo machine. But third-party developers often took…
