Disk Cleanup (Image credit: Future) Welcome to Disk Cleanup, our regular weekend feature delving into the PCs of PC gaming luminaries. Come back every weekend to read a new interview, digging into the important questions, like “How tidy is your desktop?” and “What game will you never uninstall?” Ray Chase’s first encounter with PC gaming…

Play This Right Now Welcome to Play This Right Now, the site version of our weekly newsletter in which we celebrate a new game, update, or DLC that we think is well worth checking out. You can subscribe to the newsletter at the link if you want to get our thoughts about a new videogame…

We don’t really need more Baldur’s Gate 3, given how vast and replayable Larian Studios’ RPG already is. That said, I’d never say no to more adventures within Larian’s highly flexible adaptation of the Forgotten Realms. And while Larian itself has sworn off expanding BG3 any further, the modding community is still plugging away with…

I like thinking as much as the next guy. It can be really fun to play a videogame that challenges your mental prowess, as it encourages you to weigh up every strategic shred of dialogue or split-second decision. But, counter to this, I also really like not thinking in videogames, and just riding the wave…

Honestly, I’m surprised nobody thought of this sooner.

It’s been delayed until next year because developer Snoozy Kazoo’s previous games—hang on, let me warm up Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V again—Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion and…

Back in February Epic Games told us about its plan to overhaul the Epic launcher, with an update in June mentioning it would start up five times faster on average. That technical overhaul will apparently be accompanied by changes to the storefront including personalized game recommendations, quick-access categories, and patch notes right there on the…

Terminally Online (Image credit: Future) This is Terminally Online: PC Gamer’s very own MMO column. Every other week, I’ll be sharing my thoughts on the genre, interviewing fellow MMO-heads like me, taking a deep-dive into mechanics we’ve all taken for granted, and, occasionally, bringing in guest writers to talk about their MMO of choice. Full…

South of Midnight was one of 2025’s seemingly innumerable highlights—in their 83% review, evergreen writer Andrea Shearon called it “a Deep South delight drenched in superstition and pain.” If you’ve been holding off but nonetheless rooting for the award-winning studio behind it, Compulsion Games, now’s a great time to dive in: it’s independent again after…
