World of Warcraft: Forever is a new branch of the MMO that’s making its debut this week in a month-long beta before the whole thing drops in November. It will be the first opportunity to experience some of the new quests, dungeons, and class abilities that Blizzard has added to a version of the MMO…
My name is Kristina, I work at the indie studio Hyper Games. We’re based in Norway, so you can be sure we know a lot about snow, which is great with our upcoming cozy adventure game, Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth. It is our second Moomin game and it is coming to PlayStation 5 on September 18….
Which do you prefer? It’s almost been a week, and we’re still thinking about that Ocarina of Time deep dive Direct. The new details are one thing (hello, Goggles of Truth!), but it’s the visuals that are stuck in our minds. It all looks so shiny, so crisp, so… different. Of course, it’s hardly a…
Los Santos Customs I’m modding GTA 5 every day in a quest to either transform it into a PC version of GTA 6 or break it entirely. Come back tomorrow to find out what new horrible thing I’ve done to Rockstar’s baby, or check out what I got up to earlier. You might have heard…
I’m just not sure about that ‘Extreme Green’ colour… Retro Fighters has iterated on its core range of controllers so many times I’m honestly in danger of losing track; when the Brawler64 Pro ($69.99) sample arrived in the office, I was certain I’d covered a similar pad not so long ago (and I had –…
It’s been a good while since we last heard about Balatro’s big 1.1 update—a year, almost to the day, since developer LocalThunk delayed it into 2026. There’s still no sign of it, but the community did catch sight of LocalThunk yesterday when he popped into the Balatro Discord to let everyone know that everything is…

A few years before the Dundee-based developer DMA Design created the hugely successful open-world crime series Grand Theft Auto, it produced an offbeat racing game featuring a bunch of sentient unicycles as its main characters, in collaboration with Nintendo. Uniracers…
Ex-Microsoft engineer David Plummer has revealed that he was the “primary author” of Windows XP’s Product Activation system on the OS side, and so he’s got some inside details on the workings behind the infamous “FCKGW” product key. You know, the one that seemed to be written on every pirated, home-burnt CD copy of the…
Microsoft, at this point, drips gore from head to toe. The megacorp has made a hobby of shuttering studios and laying off thousands of devs, in attempt after attempt to right the listing ship of its games business. No luck yet, on that front. You might wonder how Playground’s upcoming Fable reboot, in the works…
It’s that time of year again, folks. The PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct is nearly upon us. We sent a crew out to Japan to film exciting moments from the show floor, and we’ll be giving you more information on over 30 games. We’ll have world premieres, shadowdrops, DLC, release dates, and more. This year’s…
