The Blood of Dawnwalker isn’t out until tomorrow—September 2—but the reviews are up now, and generally speaking they’re pretty good. We gave it an 83% score in our review, calling it “a resolutely miserable horror RPG with some great ideas,” and that lines up spot-on with its enviable 83/100 aggregate rating on Metacritic. And that…
When we set out to build Crimson Moon, we knew the combat had to feel extraordinary. Not just responsive – extraordinary. The kind of combat where every strike, every dodge, every perfectly timed Weapon Art feels like a deliberate expression of the warrior you’ve chosen to become. That vision shaped everything about how Crimson Moon‘s…
World of Warcraft housing has become an amazing spectator sport, with dozens of streamers and creators entrancing players and viewers with their amazing works of art. With WoW’s new patch 12.1 adding piles of new housing decor items, rooms, house exteriors, and tools to use them with, it felt like the perfect time to ask…
Netflix’s exclusivity deal for the Grand Theft Auto 6 reveal in August struck me as a little silly. Sure, it’d probably make “a little pocket change,” as PC Gamer’s Harvey Randall put it at the time, but a video that would remain exclusive for only six hours? Not days? How much of an impact could…
Rockstar announced today that Nopixel V is “the next evolution of the GTA 5 roleplay community,” which has led to some head-scratching from casual GTA RP followers (like myself), because Nopixel V isn’t something you or I can just jump into and play. Nopixel Studios runs both public and private GTA 5 roleplaying servers, and…

Early in the production of Marvel’s Wolverine Insomniac Games sent team members to Japan as part of a broader series of location-scanning trips. These trips involved sending our scanning team to various places around the world to record real-world assets, examine natural environments, and acquire an understanding of the real and fictional locations based on…
If Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve isn’t one of your most anticipated releases in this fall’s overstuffed launch calendar, I’m just going to say it: It should be. You might be wondering, ‘But isn’t Ace Combat just, like, planes?’ And it is. But it’s some of videogames’ most ridiculously indulgent anime-ass melodrama, mediated through…
Some trailers—like, for instance, a Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer—are meant to be consumed slowly and carefully, dissected and analyzed, until every last bit of information is wrung out of them. Others are about nothing more than kicking back and enjoying the fun. The new promo for the upcoming Street Fighter film is definitely one…
The recent GTA 6 “extended look” on Netflix wasn’t’ very clear on whether you can swap between its protagonists Jason and Lucia at will. Apart from a moment where the camera pulls away from Lucia and back down to Jason miles away, there wasn’t a lot of swapping going on, especially during the action. According…
