Ingrid joins the fight. Capcom is adding the DLC character Ingrid to the Street Fighter 6 roster this week on 28th May 2026, and ahead of her release, it’s shared a character guide and the trailer for the third lot of outfits. Ingrid is described as a versatile character with a variety of projectiles and…
Beat-em-ups, also known as belt scroll action games in Japan, were all the rage in the 1980s and 1990s in arcades. Players controlled beefy characters who pummeled their way through thugs of a dubious nature with their fists, or a special weapon if they were lucky, through 2.5-D urban environments. Most of the time, they…
The Talos Principle 3 is coming, and I’m very excited: What initially attracted my attention as a sideshow curiosity from the Serious Sam guys quickly proved itself a clever puzzle game powered by an unexpectedly compelling and thoughtful narrative. I like it a lot! And so it’s kind of a bummer that Croteam insists, with…
A live action Elden Ring movie is in the works, as you may have heard, and as is sometimes the way with these things, it’s been a little leaky: Not the whole damned game went out two days early kind of leaky, but rather in the form of behind-the-scenes bits and snippets we’re not supposed…
Kenshi’s whole deal is best summed up with one of its game start conditions: “rock bottom.” When you start at rock bottom, you begin the game stranded in the desert, surrounded on all sides by enemies, with a 1 in all stats. Oh, and you just lost your left arm, and you’re malnourished in a…
Like many others that have come before it, One Move Away derives its satisfaction from handing a bunch of stuff to players and asking them to neatly solve it. And in the same way that Unpacking uses this as a storytelling medium, One Move Away utilises each of its scenarios to tell the story of…
Saturday, Behaviour Interactive revealed the latest playable killer coming to asymmetrical PvP game Dead by Daylight: Jason Voorhees. If that has you wondering, ‘How was he not in that game already?’, you’re not alone. In a press release, Horror Inc. executive VP Robbie Barsamian said Friday the 13th fans have been waiting for this collaboration…
I’m a little bit behind on this one—it launched last week—but Phonopolis, the new game from Amanita Design, is out, and as a longtime fan of the studio I am very pleased to say that so far, it’s pretty great. I say “so far” because I haven’t yet finished Phonopolis, and it’s always possible that…
Life simmers have been chronically bored for years—so much so that asking “how do you keep Sims 4 interesting for yourself?” is a bit of a cliché. My theory is that life sims need to be harder, or at the very least get back in touch with the strategy roots that made The Sims so…
Pay peanuts. We don’t remember the Snoopy storyline where Charlie Brown and co. end up in a legal copyright battle, but that’s exactly what’s happening at the moment. Lee Mendelson Film Productions (the owner of “certain intellectual property” related to the Peanuts IP) has issued a legal complaint against publisher GameMill, accusing the latter of…
