I love the convenience of Steam, particularly in this era of gigabit downloads, cloud saves, and being able to resume a desktop gaming session from the couch on my Steam Deck. But sometimes I stumble across an image from the Old Days so potent it knocks me back in my chair and makes me think,…
Destiny 2 is over. Bungie announced today that its last “live service” update is coming in June, after which Bungie will move on to other projects it has “incubating.” Fans are naturally upset, though not entirely caught off guard: The mood is rueful and a bit resigned, with plenty of gallows humor and speculation about…
Former BioWare developers launching their own studios may not be the biggest news of all time—lots of them have done it, to varying degrees of success—but the premise of the debut project in the works at Studio Reset has me intrigued: It’s “a neon-noir supernatural mystery game set in a stylized Canadian cityscape.” It’s not…
Like a toothy, grinning leviathan prowling the depths, waiting for unsuspecting explorers to come toodling along in hopelessly delicate, defenseless mini-subs Subnautica 2 continues its reign of terror: Unknown Worlds announced today that the game has now surpassed 4 million sales in less that one week. The latest sales milestone comes after Subnautica 2 pushed…
It’s the true end of an era, as Bungie has announced that Destiny 2’s “live service content update” on June 9 will be its last. “While our love for Destiny 2 has not changed,” the studio wrote in today’s shocking announcement, “it has become clear that after The Final Shape, we have reached the time…
Bad news, gang: war is dawning. Four. Uh, I mean there were a bunch of Dawn of War 4-related announcements at Warhammer Skulls, including the game’s release date. The game will hit on September 17 this year, unless you forked out for the whizzbang Commander Edition, in which case you get it three days earlier…
I’ll keep this brief: I played some Boltgun 2 and I’m still buzzing about it. It’s extremely similar to the first Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun, but more and different. It could be a perfect sequel. I already consider the original Boltgun a nearly perfect throwback FPS (or boomer shooter if you prefer) for the way it…
To say people were a little disappointed when Fatshark revealed the Hive Scum as their previous class for Darktide would be an understatement. Though the gutter rat’s flashy knives and slick gunslinging have assuredly grown on most of us, there’s still a portion of Darktide players who mourn the fact we didn’t get a member…
Now that Forza Horizon 6 is available for everyone, Series 1 is officially kicking off. Series are basically Forza’s versions of live service seasons in other games: You’ll need to enter the Festival Playlist to score points and hopefully get the keys to your very own Mazda Furai and many more exclusive rides. Despite how…
While I’ve carved through the ratman masses by the thousands in Vermintide, Total War, and other Warhammer-licensed games over the years, I’ve always been charmed by the Skaven. Maybe it’s that their villainy—borne out of the cannibalistic pressures of the clanrat’s innumerable gnawing peers and his proximity to radioactive hell-rocks—has a more material logic than…
