Shovel Knight arrives in both NecroDancer games soon. It is a truth, universally acknowledged, that at some point in an indie game’s lifecycle, it will be graced by a Shovel Knight crossover. That even applies if your indie game is a decade old, it seems. Brace Yourself Games has announced that 2015’s Crypt of the…
The Xbox brand, from its name to its design language, has always felt to me like it was made up of a mix of early 2000s spikey hair and what people found cool in the 90s. Nothing quite exemplifies this more than the great big silver Xbox prototype shown off just before the release of…
US president Donald Trump and China’s president Xi Jinping met in South Korea yesterday to discuss a variety of topics, with the main order of business being the ongoing trade and tariff escalations between their respective nations.

Collecting a free loadout in Arc Raiders is definitely more confusing than it needs to be, made even more annoying by the fact that free loadouts are really bloody good in this game. They’ll give you a free weapon, light shield, healing items, and sometimes even fancier gadgets like grenades that you’d otherwise have to…
Liam Hemsworth is Geralt now. It was a whole three years ago that Netflix announced Hemsworth would be taking over for Henry Cavill in the lead role of its Witcher series. Since then we’ve been waiting to see where his performance would land on a scale from total trainwreck to “okay, I guess,” which really…
It’s called James Pond Legacy: The Pond Is Not Enough. Veteran publisher System 3 is celebrating 43 years in the business today and has announced that it intends to release a James Pond collection on modern systems.

Calling down a supply drop in Arc Raiders is another tricky task you can complete, but, similar to the Field Depots, you’ll first have to find a Supply Call Station. There are a few of these located in the game’s various regions, but they won’t appear on your map until you’re close. That, coupled with…
