Drop in this week. The legendary skater Tony Hawk is back this week and this time he’s revisiting the third and fourth games across all platforms including the Switch and Switch 2. Returning skaters can expect to drop into both new and old parks – shredding up places like the Foundry, Alcatraz, College and new…
You can be my wingman anytime. Namco’s Ace Combat series is one of the company’s most enduring hits, and has been a solid part of its lineup for decades, selling over 20 million units in the process – yet the origins of the franchise are somewhat murky and certainly not as well known as, say,…
Not a paradox here. Can you believe that the mobile AR game Pokémon GO is nine years old? We can’t; it only feels like yesterday we started taking our phones with us for ‘mon-catching trips. The official GO X account shared some brand new artwork to celebrate the 9th anniversary, and it seems to include…
“I… so unhappy…”. Happy 25th anniversary to Final Fantasy IX, the final mainline Final Fantasy game to launch on the original PlayStation and one of the most beloved entries in the entire franchise. Today, Square Enix posted an update on the Final Fantasy IX anniversary website — which opened earlier this year — to celebrate….
“we are continuously considering ways to develop it further. Mega Man is one of the most recognisable video game characters out there. And while Capcom’s beloved Blue Bomber hasn’t had a brand new game since 2018’s Mega Man 11, the Japanese developer insists that he’s “one of our most important IPs”. At Capcom’s 46th Ordinary…

This comes despite the fact that the tech giant reportedly made $26…

The first is a turn-based strategy take on the classic Dave Theurer-developed arcade game Missile Command; one that shouldn’t work in theory, but genuinely does. The second is a misguided attempt to add context…
In sickness and in stealth. While Kojima fans on Switch might be feeling a little left out with all the Death Stranding 2 buzz, not to mention the lack of 60fps options in the Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 (we’ve still got our fingers crossed for a Switch 2 update), it seems like…
Gaussian blur bros. Intrepid fans have been doing some serious detective work on Nintendo’s N64 trailer from May and they think they’ve identified several as-yet-unannounced releases for Nintendo Switch Online. As highlighted by @ImakuniVT (thanks, VGC), the section of the trailer showing off the app’s new CRT filter has the blurred game selection screen shown…
Our picks for the best eShop games on Switch 2. Well well well — one month with the Switch 2, and we’re still swimming in eShop games. Yep, it’s time for eShop Selects for June 2025! Who needs Mario Kart World when you’ve got backwards compatibility, eh? Just because we have a new console, doesn’t…
