I thought I was out. I’d had my fill of Baldur’s Gate 3—in a good way, mind you—and was finally free to play something else without feeling like I was shamefully neglecting what is surely the RPG of the decade. I’d made all the Tavs and Durges I’d ever wanted to play as, and then…

First it was a rumor, then it was pretty much confirmed by a leak: There’s a remaster of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion coming. I just hope they didn’t remaster all the ugly out of its mugs. There are unwell people on the internet who will try to convince you that every RPG before 2020…

There’s a guy in FBC: Firebreak‘s newest trailer getting absolutely pummeled—a highlight reel shows him electrocuting himself, going blind in a blizzard of sticky notes, going blind in an actual blizzard, and screaming “I’M PINK!” as he combusts in a pile of explosive pink sludge. It seems like a pretty standard day of work, though,…

Rebellion’s open world shooter Atomfall released in March among some stiff competition, landing in the same month as Hazelight’s cooperative hit Split Fiction and a week after the massively popular Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Yet according to CEO Jason Kingsley, this hasn’t stopped Atomfall from becoming a success in its own right. Indeed, Atomfall has done…

After The Forever Winter’s chunky March update, which dramatically overhauled one of the tense extraction shooter’s key systems, I just assumed the team at Fun Dog Studios would be having a quieter April. It turns out I was very wrong. April’s Nosebleed update might not be quite as big a game-changer as last month’s, but…

After putting Switch 2 preorders on hiatus in the US while it assessed the “potential impact” of the Trump administration’s sweeping tariff rollout, Nintendo has confirmed that it will be maintaining the Switch 2’s originally announced $450 price. US preorders will begin on April 24. “We apologize for the retail pre-order delay, and hope this…

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was one of 2024’s most pleasant surprises, whipping in at the end of the year and delivering a triple-decker knuckle sandwich to everyone’s best games lists. It wasn’t just critics and players who were delighted by Indy’s long-awaited return to the virtual realm, either. Microsoft was also pleased with…

I was excited when the Painkiller reboot was formally revealed back in March, but also apprehensive. Anshar Studios’ revival of People Can Fly’s 2004 shooter looks exactly how I imagined a modern take on the game would. But it also has a co-operative emphasis, and I’m uncertain how this will mix with the series’ brutal…

Path of Exile 2‘s recent 0.2.0 update did not go down well with players. The update unleashed nerf-a-geddon unto numerous classes and abilities, while also making monsters tougher by fattening their health bars. The purported aim of the update was to make the later game more challenging. But the effect, at least according to players,…

Here at PC Gamer we’d basically given up all hope of ever seeing new Western Digital SSD’s. After waiting patiently for what felt like an age to witness the birth of the brand’s Gen 5 Black SSDs we were hit by the news that SanDisk was taking over the reins earlier this year. This wasn’t…
