The Blood of Dawnwalker’s final system requirements include upscaling set to Balanced—so unsurprisingly, they’re lower

Squinting at the new The Blood of Dawnwalker system requirements this morning before my second cup of coffee, my bleary eyes registered that the listed GPUs are often significantly less powerful than the previous recommended specs. As my tired eyeballs came into focus, though, it became clear why: upscaling, of course. Rebel Wolves has taken…

Subnautica 2’s latest 1.2 update is friend focused—finally adding the key mechanic to any great multiplayer game

I’m not sure there’s been a better invention for multiplayer games than proximity chat. Whether it be friends screaming vengeance down the side of a mountain after you abandon them in Peak, or the wails of one of your fellow workers fall suspiciously silent in Lethal Company. Proximity chat offers up fertile ground for hilariously…

Acer Predator Helios NEO 16S AI review

I do love a good puzzle. There’s something real satisfying about looking at the benchmark results and specs of two different laptops and coming to a crisp, neat conclusion on why one, that’s so similar on paper, performs so differently to another.

Unfortunately, it’s a tricky market, with knock-off chairs that all look the same littering the internet. There are budget friendly chairs out there, but it’s almost impossible to tell if budget seats are worth the cost…

Industry legend Warren Spector is retiring: ‘I’m feeling like I’ve done what I set out to do’

Warren Spector is one of the industry’s most storied developers, particularly among fans of immersive sims. His leading roles on games like Ultima Underworld, System Shock, and Deus Ex—and you know what, even Invisible War and Deadly Shadows, which are probably better than you think—established him as one of the field’s most admired and enduring…

‘Live-service is a red flag for us’: Why one publisher is embracing an older kind of multiplayer hit: peer-to-peer, server browsers, and organic community

It’s a frustrating thing to watch good games disappear. We’ve seen it happen time and time and time again: studios spend years on a cool multiplayer thing, bank on it being popular enough to become a live-service hit, then toss the entire project into the trash when that doesn’t happen. That could have been the…

Grand Theft Auto 6 leaker says they won’t stop until Rockstar and Take-Two apologize for ‘anti-consumerism’ and make a ‘concrete commitment to do better’

Cyberleek, the group or person (it’s not clear which) behind today’s big Grand Theft Auto 6 leak, claims it’s not just doing it for the lulz. In a manifesto calling out industry practices it finds objectionable, Cyberleek warned that it will continue targeting publishers who violate its edicts. “Publishers sell licenses and call them purchases,”…
