If you signed up for a Steam Frame, it’s time to check your inbox for an email from Valve. The company has run its ‘one-time randomisation’ to decide who gets a unit from the first batch and who is left on the waitlist. Once you know where you land, head over to this community reporting…
I’ve been getting stuck into World of Warcraft: Forever‘s beta—though I’m a little less levelled up than I’d like to be. Initially, I just chalked this up to launch-day queue problems, but as it turns out, there’s a little more to it than that. See, I live in the UK, and Blizzard rarely does beta…
PAX Australia returns to the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre in October, and this year’s Expo Floor promises to be packed with playable games. For starters Sega will have four games to try including Total War: Warhammer 40,000 with three playable scenarios, as well as Alien: Isolation 2, Persona 4 Revival, and Yakuza’s noir prequel…
Judging by the November release schedule, few publishers will dare release within spitting distance of GTA 6. Which is understandable, but it’s caused a massive bottleneck in October: Ace Combat 8, Gears of War: E-Day, Star Wars: Galactic Racer and Modern Warfare 4 will all release next month. And that’s not including all the other…
Much to my embarrassment, while I was mid-complaint about my new wall of Valheim storage chests, a fellow Viking hit me with, “You know you can color code those signs, right?” Duh, of course I know that. Well, I swear I did, but totally forgot about the handy feature that doesn’t require a single mod….
Over the last three years, since the Wilds of Eldraine set, Magic: The Gathering’s core expansions have been building to a climactic storyline. It’s very comic book, a multiverse-threatening crossover that’s been set off by the planeswalker Jace Beleren trying to create a new multiverse, one that’s free of all the threats Magic’s setting has…
Matthew Rhys is having quite a moment. The actor cleaned up at the Emmys on Monday, making history by becoming the first man to win two Emmys for a leading role on the same night (for comedy series Widow’s Bay and limited series The Beast in Me). And in doing that, he actually set another…
Hideo Kojima took to his social media channels earlier today to announce Bill Skarsgård as the new lead for his upcoming stealth-action game, Physint. He also reaffirmed some of the game’s casting announcements from before it changed hands from PlayStation to Xbox after a seemingly messy split with Sony. Physint’s top-billed cast are: Bill Skarsgård…
The Blood of Dawnwalker is a pretty excellent RPG, but there’s one aspect of it that not everyone loves: Time. Simply put, it’s a limited resource in the game, which restricts what Coen—that’s you—can do. Our reviewer, Australian editor Shaun Prescott, found it injected a sense of urgency into the game, at least in the…
There exists in classed-based military shooters an understanding: Never count on a random medic to care about you. You’d think in games where players have to opt into the support role, it’d be as simple as “There’s a medic nearby, they’ll try to get me,” but any Battlefield player will tell you how often trained…
