We didn’t care too much for Wuchang: Fallen Feathers when it released last year, but it was nonetheless a notable entry in what you might call the New Wave of Chinese Videogames: A game set in China, developed by a Chinese studio, that attracted global attention. It’s a bit ironic, then—and more than a bit…
Can we borrow your crystal ball, Katrina? Although Animal Crossing: New Horizons got a major update and Switch 2 Edition at the start of 2026, questions are once again being asked about its future. Variety recently spoke to Nintendo of America’s vice president Reiko Ninomiya about the plans for New Horizons (and the series in…
Well, that didn’t take long: Diablo 4 players have cooked up a completely automated build for the new paladin class that involves walking your dogs around while surrounded by a ring of fire.
