Silks and giggles. It’s very easy not to see the funny side of Hollow Knight: Silksong. Don’t worry, I’ve been there. Something about bashing your head against a boss for the 20th time takes away the giggles a little bit, and that’s okay. But you have to hear me out here: I haven’t laughed this…
A teenager from South Dakota has changed his plea to guilty over threatening messages sent to developers at Epic Games in relation to Fortnite (thanks, Gamespot). Jayden Griffin, who is 19 years of age, was indicted by a grand jury in December 2024 over electronic communications sent to Epic Games staff between October 24, 2024,…
A confession: the only Suda51 game I’ve ever played is Flower, Sun, and Rain on the Nintendo DS, which I enjoyed despite having no clue what was happening at any given time (I think it had something to do with The Silver Case?). A second confession: I love—non-ironically—Deadly Premonition, Swery’s 2010 opus that does a…
Taiwan is one of the most important countries in the world when it comes to technology. With the likes of TSMC (the world’s largest semiconductor fabrication company) being based there, it’s right at the centre of the global chip trade.

World of Warcraft: Midnight will be doing something very dramatic—slowly, steadily, but dramatic nonetheless. After 20 years of working in complete concert, Blizzard will be removing most of its AddOn creator’s access to its combat API, meaning AddOns like WeakAuras will no longer function. In place of that, it’ll be adding its own increasingly-comprehensive suite…
World of Warcraft: Midnight just received a massive deep dive on its official channels. It’s mostly an assemblage of information already out there, such as the new Demon Hunter Spec, the game’s new zones, the transmog updates, and the upcoming Prey feature—which as a difficulty sicko with precious few mates that have raid-accessible schedules? I’m…
In the latest proof that ‘job security’ is simply not a thing in the videogame industry, Funcom says the survival MMO Dune: Awakening, which launched to great success earlier this year, is “the biggest release we’ve had in our 32-year long history of making great games.” And so now it’s laying off employees. “[Dune] has…
Landing on the Nintendo Switch eShop tomorrow. D4 Enterprise, the company behind the EGGCONSOLE series of retro reissues for Nintendo Switch, is bringing another MSX title to the Nintendo platform later this week. This time, it is the turn of the 1986 action RPG Aramo, with the game being scheduled to launch tomorrow on October…
I’m a huge fan of all things Miku Hatsune. From the many Miku figurines taking over my desk to all of the rhythm games I shall simply never get good at, there’s something about the twin-tailed virtual idol that simply sparks joy for me. What definitely does not spark joy, though, is the idea of…
