Arc Raiders is a fascinating social experiment, and also occasionally a videogame. Even as someone on the outskirts, I’ve sunk hours into watching social interactions play out between rats and good guys, chucked into a pressure cooker where you can kill each other, but are never forced to. Speaking to PC Gamer’s own Tim Clark,…

Earlier this week, the district court of the Western District of Washington favoured Valve Corporation in its 2023 lawsuit against Leigh Rothschild and his associated companies, on all counts, including breach of contract and the violation of Washington’s Patent Troll Prevention and Consumer Protection Acts. Rothschild is an inventor with a huge array of patents…

Overwatch’s grand return has, for the most part, been pretty damn good. I mean, it’s not like the game ever went away, but it certainly feels like it’s having a little resurgence since dropping the ‘2’ in its name, adding five new heroes, and doing a big ol’ overhaul of its UI. True 2026 is…

Dean Hall, creator of DayZ and CEO of RocketWerkz, has a message for the world: let’s all be more chill about game delays. Especially devs who, Hall reckons, can often work themselves into far too much of a tizz about avoiding delays, sometimes to the detriment of the final game. Hall’s remarks came as part…

If you’re familiar with the world of simulation, then force feedback racing wheels are likely nothing new to you. Force feedback (FFB) flight sticks, on the other hand, are a much rarer find. A search around for current options reveals a small selection of boutique, “made in a shed” solutions that may well be excellent…

Despite banging on about data privacy, my password practices are perhaps not actually that secure. No, I’m not leaving them lying around on post-it notes like my office is just the latest level of an immersive sim, but a recent study suggests that cloud-based password managers ain’t it either. A number of these services tout…

Fair to say we’re established fans of NZXT’s Flow line of PC cases, including the NZXT H3 Flow, the NZXT H9 Flow RGB+ and the NZXT H7 Flow. They’re all four-star-plus PC cases. So, the addition of a new compact mini-ITX model, the NZXT H2 Flow, is very welcome indeed. NZXT describes it as, “a…

Corsair, G.Skill, and Kingston are some of the best-known brands of DRAM for gaming PCs, and over the years, these companies have shipped millions of memory kits. However, now that we’re well into pits of hell (aka the RAMpocalpyse), everything these vendors offer is now exceptionally expensive. But what about the lesser-known brands? Ever heard…

Birdwatching is one of the only hobbies I recommend absolutely everyone gets into, but if you’re yet to pick up a pair of binoculars and see what the great outdoors has to offer, I’ve found a handful of upcoming birdwatching games that may appeal slightly more than getting your boots on and heading outside. While…

I love an obscure dating simulator, so you can safely assume the ritual performing, eldritch abomination courting experience of Sucker for Love is dear to me. I spent hours on end flirting with L’neta in the first game, and more time than I like to admit running through the house in an attempt to satisfy…
