Of Ash and Steel is a third-person open world RPG that sets players off on a once-prosperous island to explore, fight, and “shape the fate of the world,” or at least the fate of the island. It’s still early in development (which presumably explains the lack of detail on what the game is actually about)…
Microsoft is facing new pushback over the Israeli military’s use of its AI and cloud products, as a group of more than 60 shareholders have filed a proposal calling on the company to publish a report assessing the effectiveness of its “human rights due diligence [HRDD] processes in preventing, identifying, and addressing customer misuse of…
The advent of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has generated a lot of conversation this year about whether we’re going to see a resurgence in the popularity of turn-based JRPG gameplay—conversations that have admittedly felt a little confusing to anyone who, for example, has played an Atlus game in the last decade.

It’s been more than a decade since Bioshock Infinite’s 2014 expansion, Burial at Sea, tied a bow on the series that Irrational Games and director Ken Levine will always be best-known for. Infinite was an infamously chaotic development that resulted in a divisive game and a bloated studio, which would go through brutal layoffs before…

They can be a celebration of our continued existence, or a grim reminder of our steady forward march towards an inevitable mortality—or, in the case of Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, a birthday can mark the occasion that Capcom removes the Denuvo DRM software that’s been a headache for its customers…
Playdead’s puzzle platformer Limbo came out in 2010, and Inside followed in 2016, so the odds are pretty good that if you have any particular interest in playing them, you already have. But if you’ve simply been waiting 15 years for the right moment to strike, I’m here to tell you that the clock is…
After the revolution, quicksaves will work thus: rather than a single slot which is constantly overwriting itself, you will have multiple, with only the oldest getting overwritten when you hit your limit. Even better, you will be able to select—your own self—how many such slots you keep in circulation. Want 100 running quicksaves? Fill your…
I had no intention of taking Umamusume: Pretty Derby seriously. Yet here I am, deeply invested in all of these goddamn anime horse girls. I’ve only fallen deeper in the trenches since discovering that they’re all based on real life racehorses, with Cygames putting a staggering amount of effort into incorporating each one’s real-world mannerisms…

Dungeons & Dragons just can’t seem to catch a break. First Chris Perkins and Jeremy Crawford, now this—Jess Lanzillo, previously the vice president of franchise and product for D&D, has also moved on to another TTRPG after leaving the company mid-June. While not as senior as the two big names I just mentioned, Lanzillo nonetheless…
