It’s been a good time for Space Marine 2 lately. The new Techmarine class is up and at ’em, giant axe and all. It’s also been a rough time for Space Marine 2 lately. As reported by IGN, a new DLC has just been released that promises loads of new voice lines—while it technically does…
If you like Star Wars games, you may occasionally lament that there just aren’t enough of them. You may even lament that some of them are just too hard to revisit, aged as they are by decade upon decade of jank and compatibility issues. TIE Fighter: Total Conversion might address both of those woes, given…
Soundtrack Sunday Welcome to Soundtrack Sunday, where a member of the PC Gamer team takes a look at a soundtrack from one of their favourite games—or a broader look at videogame music as a whole—offering their thoughts or asking for yours! God, Stardew Valley turned 10 this week, didn’t it? That feels sort of wild…
I did not expect Running With Scissors to announce a new FPS where you play as a victim of one of the massacres depicted in the original Postal. Then again, I find it wise not to expect anything from Running with Scissors. The developer made its name on stoking outrage with its largely terrible games,…
Indie gaming has spent the last decade slowly working its way through the visual and mechanical styles of yore, starting with 2D pixel platformers before moving to boomer shooters and then PS1-era horror games. As such, it was only a matter of time before they began gazing lasciviously at early noughties blockbusters. I was only…
After more than two years in development, Teardown‘s hotly anticipated multiplayer will finally arrive in March. It’s no tacked-on affair either, with developer Tuxedo Labs bringing a full suite of options to play with pals in its chaotic destruction sim. Teardown’s upcoming multiplayer options include full co-operative functionality for the hitherto single-player campaign, as well…
I love a good moan about Fortnite: about Epic Games vaulting my beloved shockwave grenades, about the sorry state of SMGs, and about a baffling update adding off-brand weapons. So I should give credit where credit’s due. Through careful buffs and bringing back some older weapons, Epic Games has curated the best loot pool in…
If there’s one thing cozy games love to do, it’s shifting a release date by a couple days or even a month, only a week before launch. I’ve seen more than one try to pull that over on me in March so far. They probably don’t love it, really, but they sure do it a…
Back in the primordial mists of 2007, when BioShock was the apex predator and open world games were only just evolving, a group of modders revealed plans to create their own successor to EA’s ambitious but underwhelming first-person shooter Command & Conquer: Renegade. Conceived in response to Renegade 2‘s cancellation, Renegade X aimed to do…
Warhammer’s plague god, Nurgle, has proved surprisingly popular with videogame developers, with top-villain billing in games like Vermintide 2, Darktide, and Chaos Gate: Daemonhunters. He was also featured in Boltgun, with his grotesque nurgling servants mooning us and proving annoyingly hard to hit. They’ll be returning in Boltgun 2, along with the previously revealed servants…
