Final Fantasy 14‘s next expansion, Evercold, was announced during the fanfest over the weekend—and as someone who has had a laundry list of gripes, I couldn’t be more excited. Square Enix has finally taken note of the fact the game’s formula has grown stagnant, and promised all sorts of overhauls and reimaginings of what the…
Supermassive, developer of Until Dawn and Little Nightmares, is set to lay off another 36 employees before the release of Directive 8020, which is now being delayed to 2026. While the game itself looks interesting, trading the Wendigo for Ridley-esque alien horrors, there’ll be around three dozen staff not making it to launch day. That’s…
A different approach to computer cases We build PCs in part because we love having full control over the end result. That’s true of performance, money spent, and even aesthetics. Cooler Master’s taking that same concept and applying it to the case itself, the very piece that gives your system its main appearance. The company’s…

We’re wait-Ing. So… where is it? When Metroid Prime Remastered launched on 9th February 2023, we were utterly convinced that its sequels, Prime 2: Echoes and Prime 3: Corruption, would follow suit sometime after. Now that 2025 is fast approaching, our certainty has waned, yet we remain confident that Nintendo will complete the saga on…
Marathon looks pretty groovy, but it’s got one big problem and it goes by the name of Arc Raiders. Embark’s narrative-driven sci-fi extraction shooter is really good, and really popular, and it stole Marathon’s thunder in a big way—to the point that it influenced some of the design changes Bungie made to the game in…
Wednesday, Ubisoft announced a “major reset” of its organizational hierarchy and game development plans that CEO Yves Guillemot said would foster “the conditions for a return to sustainable growth.” That included a fundamental shakeup to its internal studio structure, the cancellation of six projects including the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake, and…
Back when Dragon’s Dogma 2 released, getting somewhere was a hassle. I, myself, had one of my journeys utterly dismantled when my ox cart was ambushed, destroyed by my own pawn’s ill-advised spell, and summarily attacked by a gryphon that stole me miles away from my original location. That was somewhat addressed in a June…
Two games, one cartridge. The Case of the Golden Idol and Rise of the Golden Idol, widely regarded as two of the finest detective games in recent memory, are being bundled together in one swanky physical package from Super Rare Games. Both titles will be included in one cartridge for Switch, and buyers have the…
