REPO’s monster update is already shaping up to be a big one. First, Semiwork confirmed we’ll finally be able to speak through our disembodied heads. Today, however, the developer revealed a new feature that—by its own estimation—could screw the entire game up. Presented via Steam news post, the new mechanic is the “tumble grab.” When…
You can keep “jump”, the best verb in videogames is “examine”. When an adventure game like Lone Pine lets me examine a campfire and also a bin, then has the protagonist comment on them in a way that says something about her as well as about the object she’s looking at, I know I’m in…

If there is one part of myself that would likely surprise friends and family, it is that I absolutely love bingo. I haven’t given it enough self-reflection to actually tell you why I love it for sure, but it probably has something to do with its repetitive nature, pattern recognition, and bright colours.

Last week I wrote about a particular bug in Stalker 2 and how similar it was to a bug I encountered in Stalker: Call of Pripyat way back in 2010. I wasn’t mad about it: it gave me a warm fuzzy “some things never change” feeling you might have for a quirky old car whose…
Terminally Online (Image credit: Future) This is Terminally Online: PC Gamer’s very own MMO column. Every other week, I’ll be sharing my thoughts on the genre, interviewing fellow MMO-heads like me, taking a deep-dive into mechanics we’ve all taken for granted, and, occasionally, bringing in guest writers to talk about their MMO of choice.

Anything involving the creators of Straftat is going to be on my radar. The lo-fi 1v1 shooter was crowned the best FPS of 2024, brilliantly condensing ’90s style deathmatch into hyper-quick rounds across dozens of creatively designed maps. But Straftat is also one of the best shooters of 2025, too, thanks to the immense amount…
You’ve just completed one of Unity’s black box assassination missions, an infiltration with multiple diversions and entrances to find and exploit. The next mission has you meet up with Elise, your templar girlfriend, on the streets of revolutionary Paris. She’s being pursued by a mob of templar thugs—her faction aren’t fans of her or you…
