After playing both World of Warcraft’s new 10.2 patch and World of Warcraft: Classic’s new Season of Discovery at BlizzCon 2023 over the weekend, I was shocked to discover that there were as many creative twists in the “old,” re-released game as there were in present-day WoW. Season of Discovery is a limited-time version of…
Even though competitive keep-away isn’t really my thing, it’s hard not to admire Dead By Daylight from a comfortable distance. The folks at Behaviour Interactive have cooked up over 30 playable killers over the years, some original to the game and many adapted from classic horror media, with distinct abilities and upsetting methods for slaying…
Diablo 4 has a big, small problem: inventory space. There’s just not enough of it. Among all the other cool things coming next year in Vessel of Hatred, Diablo 4’s first expansion, are a number of fixes designed to help players with the endless bag-space management task that is, perhaps, inevitable in Blizzard’s loot-explosion action…
Revenant Hill made a big impression on us when it was revealed back in May: Associate editor Ted Litchfield said it “looks to press the gas on both autumnal vibes and the themes of early industrial labor organizing,” which actually sounds pretty spot-on when you consider that developer The Glory Society was founded by Night…

Announced in 2016, the…
Risk of Rain 2 keeps on trucking. After last year’s Survivors of the Void expansion added two new survivors and a smattering of new items and stages, Gearbox is following it up with Seekers of the Storm, which will again include “new survivors, new levels, and monsters, and more.” The most notable bit of the…
Valve appears to be working on a new feature for Steam that will let you mark individual games as “private,” which will let you keep your profile public while preventing all your friends from knowing just how much time you spend playing Horny Housewives Booty Call Blackmail. (Or, you know, whatever.) Currently, the privacy options…
Grammy-winning British singer-songwriter Adele is currently in the middle of a multi-year Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace. “Weekends with Adele” runs until 2024, and the idea came about after the artist found herself fed-up with the touring life but still wishing to perform in more intimate settings where she can talk to the audience…
As promised, Starfield’s big DLSS update is now live in beta testing on Steam, which means Nvidia owners can finally take advantage of the higher frame rates their GPUs are capable of. It seemed weird that Starfield did not support DLSS at launch, given that more than 80% of PC gamers have Nvidia graphics cards…
