The World of Warcraft: Classic team is expanding, developers told us at BlizzCon last weekend, and although the team didn’t announce the much-requested “WoW Classic Plus”—an idea for expanding WoW Classic with new material rather than just advancing it through historical WoW updates—it will be producing more brand-new stuff for the throwback version of WoW….
If you can’t get enough of The Witcher in the The Witcher Netflix series or the other The Witcher Netflix series or that The Witcher Netflix animated movie, how about this: yet another The Witcher Netflix animated movie! Netflix has announced The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep, an animated feature pitting a cartoon Geralt against…
Call of Duty, just like any competitive game that achieves success, has a cheating problem. Some players will always want to cheat, cheat sellers will always sell cheats, and developers fight to stop such behaviour ruining things for everyone else. So back in 2021 publisher Activision announced it was getting serious about anti-cheat: kernel-level serious….
In case there was any doubt (and there really shouldn’t be at this point), the Steam Deck is a major hit. Speaking to The Verge, designers Lawrence Yang and Pierre-Loup Griffais said Valve’s handheld gaming PC has now sold “multiple millions” of units. Prior to the Steam Deck, Valve hadn’t had great luck on the…
Baldur’s Gate 3 gobbled up five awards in London today at The Golden Joystick Awards, an annual event put on by PC Gamer’s publisher. That’s Larian CEO Swen Vincke hugging the haul with a big grin in the photo above, which was posted on X by Larian director of publishing Michael Douse. The D&D RPG,…
A year ago it looked like Ubisoft’s ardor for NFTs was cooling, but now it seems that the heat is back on. The Assassin’s Creed publisher has entered into a new partnership with blockchain gaming platform Immutable “to create a new gaming experience that will further unlock the potential of Web3.” Ubisoft’s history with NFTs…
Before releasing Saturday morning cartoon roguelike Mythforce, developer Beamdog made its name remastering BioWare and Black Isle RPGs like the OG Baldur’s Gates. But there was always one that got away: Icewind Dale 2. Though an official remaster remains impossible for reasons I’ll get to, modding group Red Chimera has produced their own take on…
When you first start Mob Factory, it seems like just a very simple tower defence game. There’s a hole in the ground. Worms come out of it. They follow a clearly marked path towards your castle. You set up crossbow towers, which shoot arrows at the worms, so that they die and don’t reach your…
The new Modern Warfare 3 zombies mode is a little different than its previous incarnations, and takes a fair bit of influence from Warzone 2’s DMZ. The aptly named, MWZ, is an open world version of zombies in which you drop into the Urzikstan Exclusion Zone with your squadmates and have to survive to extract. …
I chatted to Amelia Tyler earlier this week. In case you’re unfamiliar, Tyler’s the voice of Baldur’s Gate 3’s narrator, but she’s also a huge nerd and a seasoned roleplayer. While we talked about her favourite voice lines—as well as playing the Dark Urge‘s inner monologue—the conversation inevitably shifted towards pen & paper. We got…
