Diablo 2: Resurrected is a thorough revamp of Blizzard’s classic high-speed clicking game, but since 2021 it’s only been available to purchase via Battle.net. Not any more: Diablo 2 is now on Steam, which comes with two obvious perks: one, it is more easily compatible with Steam Deck and even has a Steam Deck Verified…
The excitement around the return of paladins to Diablo 4 almost made me forget that a second class was still on its way. During today’s Diablo Spotlight video, Blizzard reminded us that the Lord of Hatred expansion will launch with a second new class, one designed to contrast the bright and stalwart paladins. As some…

I swore I heard the developers wrong on the Diablo 30th anniversary Spotlight video when they said that Diablo 2 would be getting a second expansion. Lord of Destruction came out 25 years ago; Diablo 2 is a really old game. Surely, they meant to say Diablo 4, the game that we already know is…

One, it’s being made by Auroch Digital, developer of the very excellent Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun, and two, there’s now a demo on Steam so you can…
To spare myself the psychic turmoil, I decided to accept years ago that Half-Life 3 will never happen. Best case scenario, I get to be delighted by being proven wrong. Worst case, I’m sparing myself from the cyclical mass psychosis of reading an imminent Half-Life 3 announcement in whatever tea leaves we’ve convinced ourselves exist….
Not to sound like an old coot (though I am) but there’s at least one aspect of gaming that used to be a lot harder. If you got stuck on an adventure game puzzle in the 1980s, you couldn’t just ask the entire world for help: the internet hadn’t been invented yet. You just had…
I’ve spent an undisclosed, embarrassing number of days playing Final Fantasy 14, and Steam says I’ve got 370+ hours logged in Phasmophobia. So, what better way is there to lure me into your Eorzean personal quarters than with a Final Fantasy 14 housing tribute to Phasmophobia’s most beloved map? There isn’t one; that’s the perfect…
