The update is the first major response to…
Marathon’s Outpost map is an extraction masterclass, in large part due to how the central Pinwheel location lulled players in with the promise of loot. However, it wasn’t without its issues: the Destroyed Wing entrance had to be disabled shortly after it launched, and it was overall too easy to break in once players had…
No release date yet. Following the lead of The Super Mario Bros. Movie back in 2023 (we hear that did pretty good business), Nintendfo and Univerdsal aren’t wasting any time getting retail listings for the home release of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie live. They’re up now, in fact. You’ve got your typical suite of…
The cozy games launching in April are almost unanimously chilled out. It’s really feeling like groundhog day around here because somehow the extra six weeks of winter aren’t over. I’ve dragged PC Gamer’s cozy gaming collective out of their burrows to curate the cozy games of April calendar and tell you a little about what…

As…

I met Billy in a Hernand alley on my first day in Crimson Desert. There I was, just minding my own business, chatting to a beggar, when this numpty bumps into me. “Rude!” I think to myself. Then he immediately legs it, a millisecond before I realise my pockets are feeling a touch lighter. The…
I can already tell that the new, rare-quality Canto SMG will become a fan favourite topside. It’s a cheap version of the Bobcat, shredding players and Arc up close. However, getting the Canto blueprint in Arc Raiders is a real pain. In fact, it’s harder to get than the legendary Dolabra blueprint, the other gun…
