Everyone hitting refresh on Bethesda’s YouTube channel waiting for an Oblivion Remastered trailer got a surprise when a new trailer for Doom: The Dark Ages arrived auspiciously over the Easter weekend. It opens with a strong dose of story. A guy who looks like he stepped right out of Hellraiser is here to attack a…
Cozy MMO Palia is getting its biggest expansion yet, featuring the new Elderwood adventure zone, which might look familiar to World of Warcraft fans. Palia has received a steady stream of updates since it launched in open beta in 2023, but there’s one major update fans have been waiting months for and it’s finally here:…
Ubisoft has announced that its internal tool to help developers make colorblind-accessible videogames is available for public use “after several years of internal use and development.” Chroma lets developers replicate the experience of colorblind players in real time, as they actually play the game, by applying a filter over the screen that doesn’t degrade game…
Fans of Twister rejoice, there’s finally a game that lets you take down tornadoes in the least realistic way possible—and it’s free! Kill the Twister, a free indie game that’s exactly what it sounds like, launched on Steam this month and you don’t even need to add it to your wishlist since it’s a free…
A cool little puzzle platformer released last week: Bionic Bay, where you’re a little pixel scientist who, exiled to some strange biomechanical world, uses their teleportation tool to escape its strange pitfalls, tech, and traps. At first glance it’s a pretty straightforward physics-driven platformer with really nice pixel art and lovely modern lighting effects for…

The REPO devs answered some questions from players in a Q&A video posted on Saturday, including one question about semiwork’s “stance on mods.” Their response was positive, but with one small ask…
The month of April has turned out to be a flashpoint for the isometric ARPG community. It’s packed with updates: Path of Exile 2, Last Epoch, Diablo 4, and No Rest for the Wicked all have big new shinies out this month, and while it’s natural to compare them, brawling over which is better obscures…
Admit it, we all have an MMO of questionable pedigree that we could happily sink dozens more hours into. Unfortunately for me, mine was Defiance. Yep, the one that ran alongside the moderately popular sci-fi (sorry, SyFy) TV show. Defunct twice over as both a retail game and the F2P relaunch Defiance 2050, it’s now…
There is something about the Lunar series—a classic JRPG duology by Game Arts, first released for Sega CD—that makes them an endless wellspring of nostalgia. Despite being archetypical fantasy adventures (or perhaps because of it), many ‘90s kids have been looking forward to the Lunar Remastered Collection, which landed on Steam and consoles this week….
