Now that Battlefield Studios has eased the pace of multiplayer unlock progression, more Battlefield 6 players are unlocking and experimenting with its cornucopia of combat gadgets. From New Sobek City to Liberation Peak, fighters are fielding ever-increasing numbers of deploy beacons, thermal grenade launchers, C4 charges, and slam mines. You’ll find very few who’ll be…

Dead Cells, released in 2018, is one of the best roguelikes ever—”a stellar action platformer with gorgeous presentation and excellent combat,” we said in our 90% review, a reputation that only grew over seven years of further development, 35 updates, and a whole spin-off studio. You might think that Dead Cells 2 would inevitably follow,…

Ever since his election, Pope Leo XIV has made no bones about AI being a central theme for his papacy. In his very first address to the College of Cardinals on May 10 the Pope framed contemporary technological progress as a new industrial revolution, and made clear he chose his papal name in tribute to…

Now that we’re a week and change into Battlefield 6, the tips and tricksters have come out en masse to help improve (or maybe just meaningfully tweak) your play. For instance, you might’ve seen a tip making the rounds about mouse sensitivity: as shared by YouTuber TorbisXD in an X post with over two million…

I’m sorry to say that’s…

If you’d asked me a couple weeks ago, I’d have said the extraction shooter craze was starting to slow down. The last few days have proved how wrong I’d have been. Over the weekend, as metric boatloads of players swarmed the Arc Raiders server slam, a singleplayer extraction shooter was drawing its own crowds: Escape…

Sorry, Sims fans, but I have bad news for those of you who enjoy doing all that sul sul stuff on your mobile devices. Today’s update will be the last: The game is being delisted on October 21, and the servers will be switched off on January 20, 2026, rendering the game unplayable. Today’s update…

Like all of you, my primary thought while playing a Fallout game is ‘I wish I could experience this in real life’. Well, do I have good news for you. The National Atomic Testing Museum in sunny Las Vegas is bringing the post-apocalypse to our ongoing apocalypse in the form of an exhibit all about…

Should your Windows machine run into major difficulties, you may find yourself staring at a blue screen. No, not the infamous Blue Screen of Death (which has since changed to the Black Screen of… Death), but the Windows Recovery Environment, or WinRE for short. Here you can repair startup issues, access the command prompt, and…

I’ve been enjoying Fellowship more than I expected over the weekend—at first, I thought “WoW’s Mythic+ without the MMO” would be a glorified daycare for World of Warcraft players who are too old to keep up with newfangled grinds. And I was right (partially because I’m one of them), but also, it’s just a really…
