New World’s first expansion arrived yesterday, and along with the addition of flails, the ability to turn into some kind of vengeful nature monster, a transformed zone and another expedition, it also solves one of my big launch bugbears: it’s finally added mounts. Customisable horses, dire wolves and lions can now join you on your…
We’ve gotten another bittersweet taste of Haunted Chocolatier. Sweet because, well, it’s Haunted Chocolatier, and bitter because I still don’t know when this game is coming out. But we do have some new screenshots: in a tweet earlier today, Haunted Chocolatier and Stardew Valley dev Eric ‘ConcernedApe’ Barone shared four tantalising new screenshots of the…
There are seven WoW Rumble Coins to be found in World of Warcraft, and each can be exchanged for a Warcraft Rumble miniature. You can add these toys to your collection, and each one has two additional appearances if you find all the Rumble Foils. When you pick up a coin, you’ll get a Rumble…

Luckily for you, I have all…
Warfare in Ancient Egypt gave a whole meaning to the ‘heat of battle.’ Conditions were extreme down there on the banks of the Nile, with temperatures soaring so high that soldiers would wear leather armour and breezy kilts to stop themselves overheating. The Total War series has long factored in the effects of weather on…
If you’re picking up a new Microsoft Surface laptop, you could now indulge in a bit of retro gaming while waiting for Windows to finish crawling through the interminable setup and updates process. Here’s hoping it comes to the DIY Windows installation, too. It will certainly be something to do while setting up a new…
Payday 3 has had, shall we say, a rough launch, and one of the main sources of player protest has been its progression system. Heisters just aren’t thrilled that your infamy points—the things you accrue to unlock new weapons, cosmetics, and what have you—are tied exclusively to the game’s challenges. It can mean that players…
