It’s been a big year for Phasmophobia, not only did the ghost-hunting multiplayer horror game celebrate its fifth anniversary last month but the dev team are also gearing up for its highly anticipated 1.0 launch. “So we’re heading towards our 1.0 release, still in early access,” creator Daniel Knight tells me. “We’ve got quite a…
When I first tested Copilot many moons ago, I wasn’t particularly impressed. Chief among my complaints was its lack of integration with common Windows features, but it looks like that’s about to get a boost—as the latest Windows Insider build allows users to request changes to their PC settings through Copilot, to which it will…
Aggro Crab, the developer of hit co-op game Peak and arbiter of “friendslop” (although we’re still undecided on that phrase here at PC Gamer), have released a demo for its new game for Steam Next Fest—and it’s already utter chaos.

The initial collection of software recommendations, tutorials, online courses, and other resources was put together…
In what I’ve chosen to interpret as a reward for all my good deeds on Earth, Ubisoft has inexplicably revived the neglected middle child of the Splinter Cell series (which is, itself, the neglected child of Ubisoft’s franchise line-up). Pandora Tomorrow is back, baby: it’s been wordlessly listed on Steam at a 40% discount (and…
One of the biggest pain points of Battlefield 6‘s launch (second only to broken weapon bloom) is just how much of a grind you’ve got to get through to unlock all the best guns, their attachments, and the remaining class gadgets. It’s no wonder the Portal has been inundated with XP farms to the point…
So, OpenAI has signed yet another megabucks deal, this time with Broadcom and involving 10 gigawatts of what’s described as OpenAI designed “custom AI accelerators.” From a technological perspective, the interesting bit is that the hardware is OpenAI designed. “OpenAI will design the accelerators and systems, which will be developed and deployed in partnership with…
