“You might have to beat it again…”. Rumours of an Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag remake have been circulating for quite a while now, but the latest hint comes from a pretty credible source: actor Matt Ryan, who played the game’s protagonist Edward Kenway. As reported by VGC, Ryan was signing merchandise at a recent…
Summer Games Done Quick, the (self-explanatorily) summer version of Games Done Quick, has tallied a lovely $2.4 million in raised money for Doctors Without Borders, a charity that provides medical care around the world to those in need. The number’s been announced via a BlueSky post celebrating the milestone, one which was—and I must emphasise,…
Resident Evil: Requiem is my favourite Capcom game in years, and one reason for that is it gets genuinely scary at times. That’s not just in the Grace sections either: Leon might be a complete badass but, on Insanity difficulty especially, the game doesn’t hesitate to swarm you with teeth and claws, alongside some truly…
While Like A Dragon’s wealth tumbles. In the UK this week, two new releases took the top 2 spots in the charts, with Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League coming in at number 1, and Persona 3 Reload taking the silver medal. Suicide Squad’s triumph might be somewhat surprising given the relatively mixed critical reception,…
We got our first look at the Fallout TV series last week with a trailer on Saturday preceded by a behind-the-scenes report from Vanity Fair, which included looks at the show’s main characters and surprisingly bright and colorful post-nuclear world, and of course some words from Bethesda executive producer Todd Howard. The report also included…
Inzoi is looming ever closer, and with it the first real competition The Sims has had, well, ever. Krafton’s take on the life sim genre looks like it’ll be the closest we get to EA’s scope and scale for a good while. Despite that, director Hyungjun Kim doesn’t view his game as a rival. “We…

It’s important we note that some updates made to these preview OS builds include background improvements that ensure a quality and stable build for Xbox consoles. We will continue to post these release notes, even when the noticeable changes…
0% Crystals 0% Crashers 100% Clowns. One of my personal favourite gaming heroes makes their grand return this week, as Universal’s madcap platformer Mr. Do!’s Castle welcomes guests, new and old, to Hamster’s Arcade Archives. Released to arcades in 1983, emblazoned with one of the most punctuated titles of all time, Mr. Do!’s Castle is…
Frogs aren’t the first thing that comes to mind when I think about Diablo 4, but that might change with its upcoming season of witchcraft where you can summon a whole army of them. They’re quite messy, smacking enemies with their poison tongues and then exploding into a green mist. Skeletons could never, which is…
Elsewhere, Bluey performs well on Switch. The latest UK physical charts are in and the top ten is much less of a Nintendo-fest than we are used to seeing, with even the Big N’s newest releases failing to make the podium. It is Hogwarts Legacy that sits in pole position this time, with the newly-released…
