We covered this back in September, but an awful lot of people are really looking forward to Arc Raiders and so I reckon it’s worth a reminder: The open-to-all Arc Raiders server slam playtest is now live, giving everyone a chance to dive in for the weekend ahead of its full release on October 30….
PayPal’s blockchain partner, Paxos, looks to have made something of a maths-related whoopsie earlier this week, as it mistakenly minted $300 trillion worth of its stablecoin, PYUSD. That figure might look massive in its own right, but it’s even more impressive when you take into account that it’s more than double the world’s GDP—which is…
The Asus ROG Xbox Ally X is a handheld gaming PC that is filled with, and fills me with, contradictions. ‘This is an Xbox,’ cries Microsoft of what is patently just a PC. ‘This is the best handheld gaming PC I’ve ever used,’ I cry of a device that I could not in good conscience…
There’s a peculiar tint to the modern digital landscape: everything is somehow both the same as it’s always been, and yet entirely different. We still use Google, but we get a handy AI summary up top. We still get phished, but it’s being done to us by AI. On this latter point, Microsoft’s 2025 Digital…

Amnesia: The Bunker is a little like Alien: Isolation in that, every so often, you just have to take a break. Well, I did. This claustrophobic, tricksy and often outright terrifying survival horror is the fourth in Frictional Games’ series, first released in 2023, and if you ask me is the best of the bunch….
Just two days ago, Battlefield Studios bravely announced a Battlefield 6 change no one asked for: Conquest mode ticket counts were reduced to make matches faster. Some maps had max tickets (or respawns) slashed by 100, but others, like Operation Firestorm and Mirak Valley, lost a whopping 300 tickets. This move was immediately greeted by…
It’s no secret that Battlefield 6 is a very well-optimised game by today’s standards. But even knowing this, I was a little surprised to see just how well it performs on an eight-year-old GPU. YouTuber RandomGaminginHD has put the AMD Radeon RX 570 to the test in Battlefield 6, and the 2017 graphics card holds…
