We speak with Kazutoyo Maehiro and Hiroshi Minagawa. Boy, Square-Enix really wants us to party on our Switches like it’s… 1997. Because over the last few years, they’ve made three separate titles in a newly minted, old-school RPG franchise Octopath Traveler, and then there’s the upcoming Switch 2 release of Final Fantasy VII Remake, the…

I’m always astonished at the ingenuity players can wield when given a solid house-building system. Heck, even when I was playing City of Heroes: Homecoming, fans were wrangling a decades-old base builder to make some true works of art out of scraps. World of Warcraft, however, appears to be making a proper effort to do…
The Last of Us game director Bruce Straley has apologized for singling out God of War Laufey in a comment about lack of innovation in triple-A games. “God Of War Laufey, I look at that game, and every pixel is mindblowing,” Straley said in a recent Edge magazine feature. “The amount of work and skill…
Civilization 7’s full launch is still a few days away, but the strategy sequel unlocked earlier today for players who purchased its Founders edition.
