It’s Steam Spring Sale time, and you know what that means: time to buy very cheap videogames from websites that aren’t Steam. For instance, sites like Fanatical are currently running their own spring sales, meaning you can pick up a load of games you’ll never actually play for even cheaper than you can get them…
Mechanical keyboards have gone from niche enthusiast products to a trusted mainstay for most even slightly serious about their PC gaming. It’s all about those mechanical keys, and Cherry switches have been a prized choice throughout every step of this journey into the mainstream. A good mechanical keyboard fitted with Cherry switches used to be…
While SteamOS 3.0 has been around for a while now, launching with the OG Steam Deck back in 2022, we’ve yet to properly test a non-Deck handheld making use of the Linux-based operating system. The SteamOS version of the Lenovo Legion Go S should be coming this May, however, and it looks like Valve is…
Monster Hunter Wilds players are now fully sinking their teeth into the endgame—and while the discourse over difficulty proceeds apace, one thing seems apparent: Frenzied Monsters are, uh, kind of wimps.

For those who are already foaming at the mouth at the prospect of a more realistic life sim, though, good news. Krafton is giving folk the chance to dive into a couple of its…
Undertale was, for me, at least, the defining game of the indie RPG genre back when it came out in 2015. Far from just its ubiquity on social media, I remember this thing blowing my mind in ways that, nowadays, feel almost a little pedestrian. That’s not to knock it in retrospect—it’s still rather very…

I confess, dear reader, I was a little confused by the concept of Life Is Strange: Double Exposure from the get-go. As PC Gamer’s own Mollie Taylor said during a preview, “remind me to never become besties with Max Caulfield, lest I end up dead in a ditch somewhere.” Retreading the same ‘best friend dead’…
