There are famously only 22 countries in the entire world that Britain has not invaded at some point during its history. But now you can add Fortnite to that list, as the British Army has given up its plan to hold a livestreamed competition later this week between influencer-led teams on its very own custom…
The Azerothian Archives is a surprisingly deep event in World of Warcraft which has arrived with the 10.2.5 patch. It brings opportunities to earn new transmogs, mounts and pets, along with reputation to earn with old and new factions. The Archives creates a new flavor of archaeology with an excavation mini-game, tracking and spotting artifacts,…
Back in March 2023, CDPR’s then-CEO Adam Kiciński said the quiet part out loud on an earnings call, and referred to the studio’s Polaris project (a new Witcher trilogy) as The Witcher 4. Naturally the studio went into immediate damage control mode and denied the first Polaris game is The Witcher 4, but here’s what…
After a week of rumors, Embracer-owned studio Piranha Bytes, the developer of the Gothic, Risen, and Elex games, has acknowledged that it is in “a difficult situation” but says it’s still trying to find a way forward for its next project.

The phrase ‘Nothing’s certain but death and taxes’ needs an addendum—because the inevitability of Palworld having Pokémon modded into it is, statistically, more likely than both of those things.

Do you have an old game that you wish was remastered to make full use of today’s graphics technologies? For me, it’s the original Deus Ex , and I’d love to see that with modern lighting and fully ray-traced. We’ve had some so far, of course, such as Quake 2 and Portal, but these weren’t…
It’s fair to say that all of us in the PC Gamer office were somewhat disappointed with Intel’s 14th generation of desktop Core CPUs. Fast as you could possibly want, sure, but only a few percent better than the previous gen, and still just as power hungry and hot as ever. It was to be…
Late last year Google settled a class-action lawsuit that began in 2020, which accused the internet behemoth of invading the privacy of millions of users by tracking their activity even when Chrome’s Incognito mode was activated. As part of the settlement Google has now updated the description of Incognito in Chrome to something… well, basically…
Oh Capcom. The Japanese giant’s love affair with DRM is long and well-documented, but recently it’s been making some aggressive post-release changes to games that are pretty old in the teeth, with some speculation that adding DRM after the fact to titles like Resident Evil: Revelations is mainly about crimping naughty mods (which may or…
Finding a way to get High Quality Pal Oil is vital if you want to craft gunpowder weaponry in Palworld. Once you’ve constructed the Weapon Workbench you’ll be able to craft your first musket. Though this firearm might seem a little old-fashioned, it’s a significant upgrade in terms of damage—if you can forgive its painfully…
