Fortnite Festival is rolling out Season 7 on January 14, and Epic Games have announced that virtual pop sensation Hatsune Miku is leading the charge. As someone who has actively avoided most things Fortnite, I hate to admit that this might be the thing that lures me in like a siren’s song, but it was…
Dungeons & Dragons will be completing its trio of 2024 rules revisions—a little confusingly—on Feburary 18, 2025. Its third source book, the Monster Manual, comes on the heels of both the Player’s Handbook and the Dungeon Master’s Guide.

James Howells is a computer engineer who got in on Bitcoin early and mined approximately 7,500 Bitcoin from…
Hatsune Miku has been doing the rounds when it comes to collabs at the moment. We’ve seen her in Super Monkey Ball, Fall Guys, and now Fortnite, and while I’m pleased that more people are getting to understand what exactly the enigma of internet icon Hatsune Miku is, I can’t help feeling like these appearances…

Nvidia’s vice president of government affairs, Ned Finkle, denounced the plans as “misguided” and an attempt to “rig” the market. Nvidia also sought to flatter the incoming President, crediting Trump for…
Review catch-up (Image credit: Chasing Carrots) There were a few games last year that we didn’t have time to review, so before 2025 gets too crazy we’re playing review catch-up and rectifying some of these omissions. So if you’re reading this and wondering if you’ve slipped through a wormhole back into 2024, don’t worry, you’ve…
If I had a nickel for every time a recently-released live service third-person shooter gained hundreds of thousands of players at the start of the year, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice. As the headline suggests, Marvel Rivals is doing very well for itself—garnering a whopping…
