Just because a deal is reached to get a movie made doesn’t mean it’ll actually get made. We’ve seen it happen a bunch of times with videogame adaptations, like Just Cause, which was announced in 2011 and Splinter Cell, which was in development way back in 2005. Neither film ever materialized. Enter Metal Gear Solid….
You could build a cozy cabin or recreate an entire Counter-Strike map with World of Warcraft’s player housing tools, but imagine the fun of pulling one over on other players by becoming a table and hiding in plain sight. Blizzard’s huge catalog of household objects are practically begging for a prop hunt mode and it…
Rust went into full release on Steam eight years ago, but its early access debut goes back to 2013—13 whole years ago. In videogame terms, that means it should’ve had at least three sequels by now, but so far? Nothing. Is that about to change? I have no idea, but an all-caps post on Reddit…
Bonjour, evildoers. Today’s Triple-i Initiative showcase promised us some Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse news, and we got a little bit of that during today’s presentation. In the short new trailer up top, featuring commentary from Motion Twin — the lead developer on Konami’s revival, who also created Dead Cells — we got a look at some…
Everybody in the Europa Universalis community has spent the last four months worked up about the (admittedly hilarious) glitches that have plagued EU5 since its release, but the real problem with the game is much deeper. I’m an EU4 veteran with 1,700 hours and a world conquest under my belt, and I can attest that…
Despite the first trailer for Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse looking very much like a classic exploration-focused platformer, the involvement of Dead Cells developer Evil Empire had some folks going into a “Oh god, I hope it’s not a roguelike” panic. Konami tried to assuage those fears with the label “2D exploration action game,” which only highlighted…
I played nearly 50 hours of Graveyard Keeper in 2018 and its grim take on a Stardew Valley life sim turned me into one of the most evil characters I’ve ever played. As the caretaker of the dead, I quickly came to view human body parts as just another crafting resource to be harvested for…
Upcoming hero shooter Last Flag was a sponsor of last year’s PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted, and we spent a day with brothers Dan and Mac Reynolds talking about the game and how it came to be. We couldn’t broadcast the entire mini-doc we shot during the show, but with Last Flag’s release imminent, we’ve…
Road to Vostok, the hardcore survival shooter developed by Finnish former army officer Antti Leinonen, has built up a lot of hype since Leinonen released its first demo in 2022, thanks in no small part to how terrifying it is to be shot at by its bandits while you’re scavenging for soup cans. That hype,…
XGunzilla Games, the developer of the NFT battle royale Off the Grid and, more recently, resurrector of Game Informer, is facing multiple allegations that it has failed to pay some of its staff, in some cases for months. Gunzilla CEO Vlad Korolev acknowledged the claims in a message posted to X, writing, “to not disrupt…
