Not that there was much doubt, but now it’s confirmed, and it’s good news for Larian fans. Borislav Slavov, the creator of the Baldur’s Gate 3 and Divinity: Original Sin 2 soundtracks, is composing the music for the studio’s next game, Divinity. “We wouldn’t be able to stop him even if we wanted to,” Larian…
Does your choice of fashion say something about your behavior in Arc Raiders? As I pore over this “Raider Outfit Danger Scale” created by Reddit user abeetabee and marvel at its anecdotal accuracy, it’s hard to argue there isn’t a correlation. Some threads just scream “this guy is totally going to shoot me when I…
It’s not enough to slay thousands of monsters simply for the fun of it. What if all that bloodshed was to show off how much better you are at it than the rest of them? After years of asking for it, Diablo 4 players are finally getting leaderboards—and a new mode to go with them—in…
I feel like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day because the year was 2022 when I first watched EA tease the “next generation Sims game” with the codename Project Rene. Two years later it said “actually that’s not the Sims 5 though” and spent another year being weird and silent before finally admitting today that yeah,…
Remember that Divinity reveal trailer at The Game Awards? It was a banger, alright, from the puke-eating pigs to the orgy in front of the guys getting burned to death Wicker Man-style and then the big finish, where everyone dies horrifically—except the pig, which I thought was a nice touch. It is dark, to put…
I’m going to hold your hand when I say this: Project Rene is a mobile game. When EA first teased the next Sims game, we understandably thought the pretty new lighting engine shots it showed off meant we were looking at The Sims 5. After a couple agonizing years of leaks, silence, rumors, and speculation,…
I love the idea of building a huge mechanical mobile base and using it to stomp my way around a post-apocalyptic landscape on giant metal legs. Throw in a PvPvE system where I can battle other players’ bases and raid ruined cities for resources, and set the whole thing in an “industrial alternate history of…

Yeehaw varmints, have I got the most rootinest-tootinest shiny new mod for y- That was the final sentence written by Rich Stanton before a 1 in 500 chance of a heart attack triggered and killed him. RIP. Naturally I’m joking, although no doubt if you google me the AI summary will soon be telling everyone…
In Larian’s big AMA for its next RPG, Divinity, there were aspects of the game the studio wasn’t ready to share, but we got a definitive answer to a surprisingly granular aspect of its controls: No WASD movement, everything will still be mouse-driven on PC. User Plastic-Guarantee976 posed the question about keyboard controls—similar to the…
