The bloodletting continues at Electronic Arts, which has confirmed an IGN report that the Black Panther game announced in 2023 has been cancelled. Developer Cliffhanger Games is being closed as a result of the cancellation, and separately EA is also making other layoffs across some of its other teams, although the number of people being…
A Skyrim player has discovered what some are calling the most boring NPC in the game, but some might call him a hero. YouTuber Mike, who also goes by The Gaming Dad, happened across the character at the East Empire Company Warehouse in Solitude. Unlike some other NPCs, this one is named: Snorreid. He can…
Sound the “it’s happening” klaxon, folks, because it’s happening: CD Projekt announced today that Cyberpunk 2—which, by the way, the studio is now calling Cyberpunk 2 instead of Project Orion—is now in the “pre-production phase” of development. It’s not the biggest surprise of the year—we’ve known since 2023 that a new Cyberpunk game is in…
You ever get sick of trashmob fights? I admit it: sometimes I just want to run from A to B without massacring half a village, cutting down group after group of bandits, goblins, and imps who have only really been placed there to stop me from getting bored. I am, apparently, joined in this philosophy…
Will AMD’s new Radeon RX 9060 XT be a saviour for gamers on a modest budget? That’s the hope as the new GPU’s June 5 launch day approaches. Of course, with the card so close to availability, you might expect a few leaks. And sure enough an RX 9060 XT has popped up in Geekbench,…
I’ve always admired Turtle Beach’s Stealth 700 range. The cheaper headsets, like the Turtle Beach Recon 70, don’t quite hit the right price-to-value ratio for me, and though the Turtle Beach Sealth 500 seems like a solid offering, I’ve always liked the more heavy-duty feel of the pricier gaming headsets. They have thick cushioning around…
Amplitude has unveiled the third of Endless Legends 2‘s four early access factions today, and they’re one of my faves from the last game: the Necrophage. Broadly, it seems like this ravenous insectoid hive works similarly to its Endless Legend 1 variation: nothing will stop the Necrophage from consuming everything in their way. “They have…
Every other week we seem to get a tech CEO or some other bigwig telling us how great AI is and how revolutionary the AI era is going to be. But whenever they start talking about what exactly that will look like, I’m reminded of the frightening strength of historical variability and humanity’s incapability of…
Bad news for devotees of Persona 4’s iconic fuckboy: Yuri Lowenthal has announced on Bluesky that, despite his best efforts, he won’t be returning to the role for the Persona 4 Remake. Also, I guess there’s a Persona 4 Remake? (Image credit: Yuri Lowenthal / Bluesky) Lowenthal’s post read “For those who keep asking, no,…
Monster Hunter Wilds’ hammer, despite being just as deliciously violent as previous incarnations, came out a little undercooked. It came in at A in our Monster Hunter Wilds weapon tier list, sure, but long-time hammer bros found it somewhat unwieldy. For example, its offset attack is (inexplicably) gated behind the third attack in their combo….
