Get a Horizon Omega ship for pre-ordering Sony goofed up yesterday by going live with a listing for No Man’s Sky on its U.S. PlayStation blog that made it seem as the though the game would release today. That turned out to be wishful thinking, however you can pre-order No Man’s Sky starting today. It’s…
Abiotic Factor’s Dark Energy update is so vast and comprehensive it opened a rift right into The PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted, where developer Deep Field Games revealed the new faction, new gizmos, and enormous new area coming to the Half-Life inspired survival game. Indeed, it was large enough that the studio delayed the update…
The Helldivers 2 Redacted Regiment warbond that was delayed at the last minute last week has a new release date, and it’s actually not too much of an added wait. Instead of arriving on January 20 as originally planned, Arrowhead Game Studios announced today that it will drop on January 22 instead. “We were able…
Last year we had a murder mystery expansion for Magic: The Gathering, followed by a Wild West one. As the cynics put it, they were “Magic in detective hats” and “Magic in cowboy hats”. Now, with the Aetherdrift set basically being themed around Speed Racer and Twisted Metal, the cynics say this is “Magic in…

MORGAN PARK, STAFF WRITER (Image credit: Future) This week: Wrapped up a replay of Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory and questioned if a better stealth game exists 21 years later. This week is the most excited I’ve been about Battlefield 6 since it launched. EA announced that seven more maps are coming this year, and several…
GTA 6 may just be the most anticipated game release of the last decade (sorry, Silksong) as players have been waiting what feels like a lifetime to get the chance to drop into Rockstar’s next instalment. But as player excitement swells, the closer we get to GTA 6’s release, so does some developers’ anxiety. In…
I’ve been spooked by plenty of pixel-art horror games, like Signalis or Look Outside. But I can’t think of an FMV game that’s truly frightened me. The bit in The 7th Guest where hands try to come out of the painting seemed eerie when I was a kid, but now it’s pure kitsch. Watching the…
“Toby Gard really didn’t want to alter Lara”. It’s not unusual for video games to be altered to appeal to audiences in other territories – look at how Kirby’s expression was tweaked for some of his North American adventures, for example. The process can work in the opposite direction, too – for example, the PS1/Saturn…
I’ve kinda turned around on Peter Molyneux. The man cannot stop over-hyping and over-promising, and it makes it hard to trust anything he says—especially after the Curiosity and Godus fiascos—but increasingly I feel like he’s just the sort of person who dreams big and can’t contain their excitement, even when it’s only going to lead…
