If you’re still hanging on to that old password, here’s some news that should change your mind: Cybersecurity researcher Bob Dyachenko and the team over at Cybernews have discovered an open instance containing a gigantic 12TB of user data, in what they’re referring to as the “mother of all breaches”, and it seems like it…
Gale is a divisive character in Baldur’s Gate 3. Owing to a series of bugs that made him a bit of a horndog, the Wizard of Waterdeep quickly earned himself a reputation as a bit of a hound and a creep. We collectively dunked on him in much the same way back when we did…

Like all overnight successes, Palworld’s sudden emergence as 2024’s first bona-fide viral hit has a much longer history. If you’re wondering why this slightly jank Pokémon-aping survival sim suddenly took over every feed going, in the process racing to 7 million sales and counting, then the answer has a ton of elements to it: though…
Palworld mods are already racing out the gate to expand options and tweak gameplay in the year’s biggest surprise hit so far. There aren’t a huge number of mods available for Palworld yet—it only just released—and what mods there are may be intermittently broken by future updates. Palworld is in early access, and developer Pocketpal…
Demeo is a videogame take on tabletop dungeon crawling that we quite liked: Weekend editor Jody Macgregor described it as “like having the Monster Manual thrown at your face,” but in a mostly good way. Now Resolution Games, the studio behind that game, is taking Demeo’s D&D roots a big step further in a partnership…
