Silly season begins. As usual, the number of games coming out really picks up pace as we slide into the latter months of the year. September and October are looking packed, and there’s still a bunch labelled “TBA 2026” which need to slot in somewhere. Some will surely slip into next year, but be prepared…
Can I get a Booyah? It’s easy to forget that Splatoon isn’t Nintendo’s new kid on the block any more. The series started as a bold swing on Wii U in 2015 – a brand new IP in a genre that Nintendo historically hadn’t touched, released solely on its worst-selling console since the Virtual Boy….
Poké Preparations. The weekend is here, and all of us are hungry for a spot of gaming. It was a reasonably quiet week in the world of Nintendo this time. We finally got a release date for ‘Part 1’ of the Pokémon Pokopia Expansion Pass and our first look at ‘Part 2’, Nintendo announced Super…

Rebooting… Screamer, the arcade-style racing game set in an anime-inspired dystopian world, could be on its way to Switch 2 in the future.

Team Spirit. Fire Emblem is back! Fortune’s Weave is right around the corner, and in the run-up to its release on 17th September, Nintendo is rolling out the character introductions.

Summer Nights event returns. We’ve been so lost in the Splatoon Raiders sauce for the past week that we had started to forget the sweet, sweet taste of Splatfests. Well, worry not, because we’re getting a reminder of their brilliance next month. Nintendo has today announced that the Summer Nights event will return to Splatoon…
Enter the CloverPit. CloverPit launched on PC last year and quickly built up quite the reputation. It sold over a million copies thanks to its super-addictive gameplay loop, and currently sits with over 12,000 reviews (the vast majority of which are ‘Very Positive’) on Steam. In short, it sounded like the type of thing that…
Two for one. Honestly, we thought we couldn’t be more sold on Orbitals after we went hands-on with it earlier this month. The magic of GameShare meant that the Switch 2 exclusive was already going to be pretty darn accessible, but Shapefarm and Kepler Interactive have announced this week that the game will also get…
Street Fighter 6 is also getting a new event collab. Paramount and Legendary have this week released a “special look” at the upcoming Street Fighter live-action movie. It features a fight between Ryu (Andrew Koji) and Blanka (Jason Momoa), and there are also cameos from the fighting game community, including fighting game content creator Maximillian…
