Over Ukrainian support. World of Tanks‘ Russian operator Lesta Games, which was formerly owned by Wargaming, is being targeted by the Russian government over claims that the maker of various long-running, and highly popular war-sim titles, has been involved in extremist activities. According to a report from RIA.ru (owned by the Russian state), which has…
Accessorise up. Well, the Switch 2 pre-order circus came to town, and it was predictably calamitous. It feels like the same story every time a console launches these days, with demand vastly outstripping supply and the frenzy to secure a unit at launch generating joy and disappointment in equal measure. We hope those of you…
That’s a lot of tarnished. FromSoftware has announced that it has now shipped over 30 million copies of the hit action-RPG Elden Ring, making it one of the most successful video games of all time after just three years on the market. Originally launched on 25th February 2022, the game took the now-classic ‘souls’ formula…
Good idea, slick. If you happened to have missed out on a Switch 2 pre-order, then chances are you’re feeling pretty glum at the moment. We get it. Over in Japan, prospective owners had to enter a lottery system in order to be granted the opportunity to place their pre-orders. We know that legendary developer…
New bosses incoming. Inti Creates has today released the first major update for the Castlevania-inspired character-swapping adventure Gal Guardians: Servants of the Dark. This one brings the game up to ver. 1.2.1 (a small follow-up accompanied the “major” part of the update) and adds a handful of new features like a fresh ‘Arena’ event, new…
Historicality. Yum! Now, we’re not sure if you’re aware — or if you’re even cool enough to be aware — of indie horror sensation, Baldi’s Basics, but rest assured that this is one very peculiar slice of PC video-gaming strangeness. Indeed it’s an experience that pairs grungy kids educational games of the 1990s with an…
Top 10? Now that’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time… We’re back with the latest look at the UK charts, and, as we edge another week closer to the Switch 2 release date, it’s another sleepy week in Nintendo land. Once again, there are no first-party showings for the House of Mario…
Who do SKU think you’re kidding? An Emmy award-winning audio engineer has taken to social media in order to call out his local GameStop store, which he claims has been attempting to force expensive Switch 2 bundles on its customers in an attempt to cash in on the high demand for the console in the…
It’s a beaut. Nintendo has released a new video via its Nintendo Today! app which showcases the features and form factor of the new Switch 2 Pro Controller (thanks, Stealth40k). If you’ve already got the original Switch Pro Controller, then you might be looking at the latest iteration and wondering what’s actually different. Well, there…
Keep an eye out for the digital release. ‘Switch 2 Edition’ is a phrase that we’ve got used to throwing around over the last few months. Heck, we’re going to throw it out there again now, but not in the sense of the upcoming lineup of enhanced games. Yes, Nintendo has announced that its official…
