Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls held a beta the past weekend, finally giving PC players a chance to play Sony’s superhero tag fighter before launch (and a second opportunity for those on PS5). It was short but sweet, reaching an all-time peak of 33,233 concurrent players on Steam alone—just beating out Street Fighter 6’s beta player…
While we weren’t too hot on the 2025 soulslike Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, it was a hit for Chinese developer Leenzee and publisher 505 Games, reaching five million players across all platforms. However, a report from the Chinese publication Gamersky earlier this year claimed that the game’s director and producer, Xia Siyuan, had been fired from…
I’m surprised it’s taken 13 years to happen, but Final Fantasy 14 is finally bringing Final Fantasy 7 to the MMO in a big way. Upcoming expansion Evercold is getting an entire raid series dedicated to the remake trilogy—that’s 12 whole fights spread across three tiers which will trickle in over the course of Evercold’s…
…but stands accused of using AI in the process. Eyepatch Entertainment’s 3DO port of Super Mario 64 raised some eyebrows recently, and the developer has now shown off very early footage of the game running on real Sega Saturn hardware. As with the early 3DO footage, things are still pretty rough. The port uses the…
Final Fantasy 14 may be an MMO, but it’s certainly never sacrificed the series’ talent for excellent storytelling. It’s stuffed with incredible worldbuilding, a cherished cast of characters, and heart-wrenching story beats that’ll get players shedding a tear from just hearing a few notes from a song that played during a cutscene. It is, however,…
Subnautica 2 might be a chill survival game, but the journey to May’s early access launch was filled with drama, legal battles and accusations of sabotage. Just recalling it all is giving me a massive headache, which I’m now going to give to you. In 2025, Krafton ousted Unknown World’s leadership and delayed Subnautica 2’s…
We’re in the count down phase for Silent Hill: Townfall, and while we don’t have a preview yet (you’re going to have to wait until Gamescom), Screen Burn’s director Jon McKellan and series producer Motoi Okamoto have been discussing that next instalment, what fans can expect from the foggy shores of St. Amelia, and what…
A number of recent Linux driver patches has reportedly resulted in significant performance gains for the Steam Deck. Valve’s handheld runs on the Linux-based SteamOS, and these patches can apparently improve the Steam Deck’s 1% low frame rates by as much as 31%. A fresh ‘epp_boost’ feature for the AMD P-State driver is largely responsible…
What would it take to make you use Epic’s launcher? Free games? Even better revenue for devs? Or perhaps an experience that doesn’t make you want to pull your hair out? Well, Epic’s already tried the first two, so now it’s onto the third as it hires a new VP to oversee and hopefully fix…
AMD has launched a new graphics card, the RX 9050. This is an entry-level graphics card with a slim provision of cores and VRAM, more of a match for the 890M than the RX 9060. It’s even more entry-level than initial rumours suggested, and while you’d hope for a great price to match, we’re not…
