80 minutes of Mario Wonder and Pokopia. You might think that we’ve already seen all there is to see about upcoming Switch 2 titles Super Mario Bros. Wonder – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup In Bellabel Park and Pokémon Pokopia, but you’d be mistaken. Here to show even more in the gameplay department for…
Resident Evil 2 Remake had the tough job of living up to the highest of expectations when it released in 2019, and outside the fixed camera purists there aren’t many people who’d say Capcom failed to deliver. It’s still the tense, eerie journey through the RPD and beyond that we all remember, but Leon and…
Software engineer Sammy Azdoufal had a humble goal: He wanted to control his robot vacuum with a PS5 gamepad, because controlling things with a gamepad is cool. Shortly after pursuing that dream, however, Azdoufal found he had gained control of over 7,000 robots that were happy to provide him camera feeds and floor plans of…
Something I love about videogames is the way that a single line of patch notes can have a disproportionate butterfly effect on millions of sessions. This little sentence, part of today’s Shrouded Sky update, will alter the fate and behavior of countless raiders: Wolfpack – Added Rocketeer Driver as a crafting cost. The Wolfpack is…

Today Sony announced that the test will run from February 27 to March 1, and if those dates feel oddly familiar to you, it might…
Anything Qud happen. The legends of Caves of Qud stretch back into the ancient times, through mists of lore, to a moment of destiny. That’s right – all the way back to 2007, when American team Freehold Games began development on this ambitious roguelike RPG. After a 17-year journey to version 1.0 in 2024, gathering…
Easily the biggest influence on how I’ve run tabletop RPG campaigns over the last few years has been the OSR movement. Short for Old School Renaissance (or Old School Revival, depending on who you ask), it’s a subgenre of games that look back on the origins of D&D and bring forward ideas that had become…
