Control is, for me, one of those games that can make playing everything else feel a little bit worse. Remedy simply nailed the paranormal bureaucratic atmosphere too hard. After playing Control back in 2019, I have to live with the faint wish that whatever game I spend time with would give me more opportunities to…
Diablo 4 players have proven once again that if there is a way to deal so much damage the game can’t calculate it anymore, someone will find it. This season the award goes to a druid player who figured out a combination of items that stacks their poison damage into infinity. That player was YouTuber…
Save up for all the unique volleyball skins, flashy score effects, and mildly toxic emotes your opponents use by redeeming new Volleyball Legends codes. Yup, it’s yet another anime-inspired Roblox experience, but this one stands out as one of the few implementing more direct gameplay cues from its series source material: Haikyuu. The volleyball action…
Every year there’s space penciled into the PC games release calendar for an unlikely indie game hit to blow the doors off the Steam charts. This year it was Schedule 1 that had my group chat in a chokehold for several weeks. If you missed out on the drug-dealing crafting sim back in March, you’re…
The rumours have been swirling for a while, before today brought a major industry announcement: EA has struck a $55 billion deal to go private in a Saudi-backed buyout. It’s the biggest leveraged buyout in history, meaning that the new EA is instantly saddled with $20 billion of debt, and will face intense pressure to…
PC Gamer retro-gaming aficionado Rich Stanton was seriously impressed with Terminator 2D: No Fate when it was revealed earlier this year, saying it “looks like the best Terminator game since the Genesis.” And for the record, no, he wasn’t kidding. It’s bad news for Rich, then, that he’s going to have to wait a little…
Grand Theft Auto 6 won’t just be the biggest game of 2026: it’s the first series entry since the departure of several Rockstar big-hitters who’ve been involved almost from the start. Things didn’t go so well for longtime GTA producer Leslie Benzies, whose studio Build A Rocket Boy released MindsEye earlier this year. That was…
Autumn is here! Autumn has in fact been here for a week, as the good ol’ Farmer’s Almanac tells us, but the seasonal shift matters today more than most other days because today also marks the beginning of the 2025 Steam Autumn Sale. ‘Now, hold on,’ I hear you say. ‘It’s far too early for…
Rory Norris, Guides Writer (Image credit: Future) Last week I was: playing way too much Borderlands 4. This week I’ve been: continuing to play way too much Borderlands 4 and waiting for Battlefield 6. One thing that surprised me from the Battlefield 6 beta back in August was that Battlefield Studios seemed to be aiming…
It’s odd, I think, that so few videogames focus on the tender process of repair. Restoration is satisfying in a way almost nothing else is. Taking something broken, shattered, discarded and, by careful work, returning it to purpose is inherently pleasing, like you’re reinstating a tiny bit of order in the world. I reckon that’s…
