If it doesn’t make you say “what the fuck” out loud is it even a Death Stranding trailer? The marketing for the original Death Stranding was a masterclass in intriguing nonsense that everyone wanted to talk about even though we did not understand a lick of it. There were dead whales, blood urine, and a…
We said in October that Cyberpunk 2077’s redemption is complete, but I think that may have been a little premature because now it’s really complete: CD Projekt has finally settled the class action lawsuit filed against it in 2020 by investors who weren’t happy with the state of the game at launch. It’s easy to…
World of Warcraft‘s player housing early access is already a treat—with players immediately setting to work constructing all kinds of madcap, HOA-violating nonsense, as they very much should be. One trick players discovered (outside of being able to sit anywhere) was the ability to send their entire homes skyward. This was a UI bug—turns out…
I genuinely have a great level of affection for Quantic Dream games—they’re all weird, ambitious, narrative rambles with more ambition than sense. Say what you want, I don’t think I’ve ever been bored by one. Detroit: Become Human is a clumsy civil rights metaphor that doesn’t quite handle the subject well enough to justify hewing…
Though you can only pick one class during character creation, Dune: Awakening trainers offer another way to learn the art of all five specializations—so don’t worry too much about locking yourself into one skill tree. After picking a starting class between the Trooper, Planetologist, Mentat, Bene Gesserit, or Swordmaster, the other four class specialists will…
Everyone is talking about Nvidia these days. The gaming graphics card company, turned datacentre company, turned AI company, turned Wall Street darling… even my Nan asked me about them recently. But today is not Nvidia’s day. Nope, this build is powered by AMD and Intel parts, working in total synchronicity. You might be surprised to…
Our picks for the best eShop games on Switch 1 & 2 in January. You’ve got through one month of 2026, and what’s your reward? Ah yes, another dose of eShop Selects! The Switch 2 has kicked off the year in relatively calm fashion, but before the mad Spring rush hits us, let’s look at…
Gotta scout ’em all. While Pokémon has long been the undisputed king of the monster-catching RPG niche, there have always been other releases that have offered up their own distinct take on that unique brand of recruitment gameplay. Megami Tensei, for example, pioneered the concept with ‘Demon Negotiation’ in 1987 and Dragon Quest took a…
I would lay my life on the line for Sherma, Hollow Knight: Silksong’s recurring bug pilgrim with indefatigable hope and a song in his heart, and that seems to be the general consensus on the matter. In perhaps the most beautifully deranged expression of Shermania I’ve seen yet, Video Game News on YouTube has uploaded…
Created by DC Studios as a pitch demo. A game preservation group has published footage of a Sega Rally prototype. Developed by DC Studios, the game was apparently created to pitch to Sega. Alongside the footage, Prototopia (formerly known as Obscure Gamers) has also shared footage of another pitch demo from the same studio which…
