I don’t know about you, but my favorite way to see new games announced is in PowerPoint documents with titles like “3Q 2023 Earnings Results – Investor Relations.” It’s just so magical. I get little tingles all over. That’s how we learned that “The Next Subnautica” is planned for a launch in 2025: not with…
If you’ve ever thought to yourself that Geralt of Rivia would make a really great guardian in Destiny 2, I have good news: Bungie and CD Projekt have teamed up to create all-new Witcher-inspired Destiny 2 cosmetics, including armor ornaments, a Ghost shell, a new ship, Sparrow, emote, and finisher. The Geralt-inspired gear is set…
You likely already know this if you keep track of our running list of Steam sale dates, but just in case you don’t—or perhaps you’ve just forgotten amidst all the Black Friday hubbub—the 2023 Steam Autumn Sale is live now, and runs until 10 am PT/1 pm ET on November 28. As always, the launch…
Scott Pilgrim Takes Off was released in its entirety last Friday. I was a teenager when Scott Pilgrim vs. the World came out, so—like any fifteen year old who was even remotely into video games—it became my whole personality for a couple of months. And why wouldn’t it? For all its flaws, it’s a bombastic,…
League of Legends Worlds is a prestigious yearly tournament that wrapped up its 2023 run recently. The victors, T1 from Korea, took home $445,000 along with the gold. In a sad twist of fate—one that belongs in some Greek tragedy—a member of the winning team still didn’t get what he wanted. See, Worlds winners get…
Influencer Pokimane recently launched her own line of branded cookies: the Myna cookies (with added vitamin D!) are miniature cookies in bags, which are sold in batches of four bags for $28. If you’re thinking “that’s a lot of money to spend on biscuits” you’re not alone, though of course Pokimane is only one of…
Valve followed through on its promise to change Steam’s regional pricing for Argentina and Turkey on November 20, meaning games in those countries will now be priced in US dollars instead of the Turkish lira and Argentine peso. The goal, Valve said back in October, is to prevent game developers from having to constantly adjust…
The premise of Slay the Princess is immediately intriguing. You’re a hero seeking a captive princess, but as the title suggests, you’re told you must kill her, not rescue her, or else she’ll end the world. She seems like a normal young woman—are you being deceived into committing a cruel murder, or is she truly…
The Simpsons Hit & Run—a GTA-style send-up that somehow managed to be actually pretty dang good—came out in 2003 to some stirring commercial success. I have some fond memories of romping around Springfield as an accident-prone Homer, and while I’m certainly not alone, the game never had a sequel. Turns out, it very nearly had…
Tracking down the three Essence of Aether samples is one of the many missions you’ll find yourself undertaking in Act Two of Modern Warfare 3‘s zombie mode. While the game does give you a location name where you can find each sample, that’s not much to go on in a map as expansive as the…
