It’s been seven years since Avalanche Studios last released a Just Cause game. The series that put the Swedish studio on the map has been missing in action since 2018, and if the words of its creator are anything to go by, we won’t be seeing another one any time soon, if ever. In a…
I spent most of my weekend playing Arc Raiders, navigating the weird social relationships that come with trying to convince someone not to kill you, running away from that goddamn Leaper, and finding my arch-nemesis in the form of a random ladder in Dam Battlegrounds. If you’ve spent any time in Embark Studio’s latest extraction…
Two quests worth taking? How many of you spent your spooky weekend in Alefgard? Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake landed right before Halloween, bringing back the first two NES Dragon Quest games with a brand new coat of paint — and in more ways than just a lovely HD-2D sheen. Out on both…
I’ll be honest, I’ve never really understood the ‘RPG to action game’ pipeline that many popular series—and studios—have gone through.

Rapper is under fire again for rebranding other people’s products. Remember when one-hit-wonder Soulja Boy (real name DeAndre Cortez Way) got caught selling rebranded handhelds?

The future of EA has looked, well, uncertain since it got picked up in the biggest leveraged buyout in private equity history. For one thing, it’s now on the hook for $20 billion in debt. For another, the buyout came from a group of investors that included Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund and Affinity Partners—founded…
Arc Raiders has a boatload of materials for you to loot topside, and while most of them say what they’re used for, Rusted Tools certainly do not. They’re considered a rare recyclable material, and that’s likely what you’ve done if you’ve found some already, and now you’re frantically searching for more upon the grave realisation…
