I was seriously impressed by Terminator 2D: No Fate when it was revealed earlier this year. I love the idea of a tie-in that’s authentic not only to the events of the film, but also the era of gaming in which the film was released. Developer Bitmap Bureau seems to have largely nailed the authenticity…
Although No More Room in Hell 2 launched into early access a little too early for its own good, I still think it was a better zombie game than it gets credit for. Not only did it capture the essence of zombie horror with its eerie, pitch-black nights and undead hordes that seemed fairly unthreatening…

When you launch Rematch for the first time, a little pop-up will warn you that the game is “best experienced with a controller.” After ignoring that to see how it felt with my beloved mouse and keyboard, I’m not sure I agree; while the mouse controls take some getting used to, they may be preferable…
Someone had to do it: An exceptionally skilled Elden Ring Nightreign player has soloed all eight Nightlords (and the new enhanced boss) as its squishiest character. And if my eyes don’t deceive me, I think they did all of them in a row. Reddit user PotatoFoSho calls it the “solo gremlin challenge” in reference to…
Sloclap’s 5v5 soccer game Rematch came out strong yesterday, racking up nearly 93,000 concurrent players on Steam alone—impressive by any measure, and particularly so for a Thursday afternoon. Today the studio put an even bigger number on the scoreboard, saying Rematch pulled in a million players in its first day of full release. “One million…
Horror luminary David Cronenberg’s films are all thematically related, but 1983’s Videodrome and 1999’s eXistenZ feel especially like a diptych. Videodrome is about the virtual reality created by televised mass media (“television is reality, and reality is less than television”) and eXistenZ is about an immersive VR game that erodes the realness of the world…
Speaking to actor Samantha Béart about their fan (and PC Gamer)-favorite turn as Karlach in Baldur’s Gate 3, I was surprised at how close we were to a different actor portraying the character. Béart was initially turned down for what sounds like an early version of Karlach, as well as some side NPCs. It took…
Monster Hunter Wilds has become the latest Steam review battleground as an influx of disgruntled players have tanked its review rating down to “overwhelmingly negative” in the last week. Since Monday, over 2,000 negative reviews have been filed, most of which criticize its poor PC performance and a lack of substantial fixes from Capcom in…
FBC: Firebreak did not live up to the hopes we had for it. But, as we noted in our 60% review, “many of Firebreak’s problems are fixable. A thorough balance revision would immediately improve the experience.” In an update posted on Steam today, Remedy said that’s exactly the plan. After the usual ‘thanks for the…
