FromSoft dataminer and YouTuber BonfireVN has uploaded a new video comparing Elden Ring Nightreign’s Dark Souls throwback skins to their original models, and I was surprised at how much they’ve actually been touched up since their original appearances. I like to think I’m a tough, serious guy who’s not easily manipulated when a piece of…
Amazon’s Mass Effect adaptation just found its commander in Doug Jung, who will be the series showrunner and executive producer, as reported by Deadline. You’ll be familiar with Jung’s work if you’ve seen Star Trek Beyond, Mindhunter, or Cinemax’s Banshee series, where he was a writer. He was also a showrunner, executive producer, and writer…
Call of Duty and Battlefield may only occasionally dip into the Second World War these days, with CoD’s most recent Nazi battering entry being 2023’s Call of Duty: Vanguard, while Battlefield hasn’t so much as sniffed an M1 Garand since 2018’s Battlefield 5. But there are plenty of other shooters dedicated to replicating history’s most…

Players can expect two new areas of the Federal Bureau of Control to open up in autumn and winter respectively, each bringing a host of subsidiary features. Each update will add…
As part of The Witcher 3’s 10th anniversary celebration, CD Projekt Red spoke to GamesRadar about the “secret sauce” that made its quests so special. Maturity was cited as the main ingredient by Paweł Sasko, a quest designer on The Witcher 3, because the majority of its developers were entering their 30s and 40s. Also,…
Finish the week with a guaranteed win. We’ve got a clue for today’s Wordle that you can either use as a springboard for your first guess, or keep to one side in case those green letters refuse to turn up on time. Prefer something a little more straightforward? Something that can save a win streak…
While the big news out of Konami’s Press Start event was the welcome announcement that Bloober Team is remaking the original Silent Hill, there was also a substantial behind-the-scenes segment on the upcoming Silent Hill F, which we’ll see a lot sooner than a remake Konami didn’t even have footage of. Silent Hill F is…
Tech YouTuber Bringus Studios has published a 36-minute video analyzing, testing, and disassembling the prototype Steam Deck that sold on eBay in April. Bringus’ analysis shows it to be a much less powerful device than what we ultimately got, but surprisingly close to the retail unit in terms of layout. Though Bringus Studios published the…
