Alright, alright. I know this website is called PC Gamer. I am aware, dimly, that the PlayStation 5 is not a PC. A thing that is even less a PC? The PS2. And yet here I am, writing about a PS2 game arriving on PS5. In my defence, that game is literally Deus Ex, the…
Survival MMO Dune: Awakening isn’t even really out, officially: we’re now in the five day advanced access period (everyone calls it the “head start”) where only players who have purchased the $70 deluxe edition or the $90 ultimate edition can play. That hasn’t stopped the desert planet of Arrakis from getting a ton of new…
It happens in every game eventually: you spend a skill point on an ability that sounds great but wind up with buyer’s remorse. Survival MMO Dune: Awakening is no different. Want to refund your skill points and spend them elsewhere on the skill tree? Don’t worry, it’s easy. Dune: Awakening’s class system is pretty freeform:…
Epic’s game giveaways aren’t quite the whiz-bang thrillers they used to be—after six years of freebies, it’s all become a bit routine—but every now and then it still manages to hit one out of the park. Today is one of those days, because today, and until June 12, you can pick up Arkane’s excellent Deathloop…
Heroes of the Storm has announced that, to celebrate the game’s 10th anniversary, all heroes will be free for all players until June 15, there’s one new skin, and if you login, you’ll get a few little bonuses to boot. It’s been five years since HotS got a new hero, and three years since Blizzard…

After a ton of time in the survival-crafting game’s multiple beta tests, we’ve learned that the hard way, but you don’t have to. As the MMO goes into advanced access and its official launch, we’re here…
Among the trailers at Sony’s State of Play showcase was a new look at Metal Gear Delta: Snake Eater. Of the many remake projects in the contemporary game industry, this is a bit of an odd one: it’s largely a straight-up visual recreation of Metal Gear Solid 3, with some modernized touches, which means it’s…
In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: Idiot sockpuppet lawyers and a bailiff with the power to turn people into chickens. These are their stories. The stage has been set, on trial is Mr Bean, a known funny guy, an unknown perpetrator of financial fraud. There’s…
More than two years after its first trailer debuted, magical surfing adventure Sword of the Sea finally has a release date—August 19—announced during Sony’s State of Play showcase last night. It’ll be the third game from Giant Squid, the small studio behind the award-winning undersea exploration game Abzû and magical parkour archery adventure The Pathless,…
Traversing all of those scorching deserts and abandoned research facilities takes a toll on everything in Dune: Awakening, including whatever guns, gear, or vehicles you bring along for the mission. You’ll want to repair gear and items before heading out on any lengthy excursions, lest you get caught unarmed, naked, and chased by a giant…
