Last month, a game called Shrimp Game: Krill Confirmed launched on Steam. It’s a self-contained demo for the upcoming shrimp game, Shrimp Game, and as a game about shrimp it has all the features you’d expect: You can pilot one of 11 weaponized combat shrimp-forms, imbue them with a cocktail of violent elemental powers, and…

The end of Destiny 2 development came as a surprise to everyone: players, streamers, casual observers, and even the development team at Bungie, most of whom reportedly had no idea it was happening until it happened. It was such an outrageous move that even Rebb Ford, the creative director of Warframe—the other Destiny—called it “unthinkable.”…

It’s far from a sure thing, but there are reasons to believe that we’ll see a Persona 6 announcement in the near future. Recently, images purported to show the rumored game’s main characters and the RPG’s logo appeared on social media.

Those additions and quality-of-life reworks have been so well-received that D2’s daily peak player counts…

If there’s one thing I respect in this fallen world anymore, it’s commitment to a bit. Jim’s Music Dungeon on YouTube is Knee Deep in the Bit, having taken hundreds of classic metal songs and made them sound like Doom level music⁠—and he isn’t slowing down. His Doom midi cover of Schism by Tool definitely…

Back in 2023, “assholes” swatted Ned Luke, the actor who portrays Michael in Grand Theft Auto 5, while he was in the midst of a Thanksgiving livestream. Earlier this week, Luke revealed that at least one of those assholes is going to jail, and said more are likely to follow. “Don’t drop the soap in…

Bandai Namco has revealed that the Switch 2 “Tarnished Edition” of Elden Ring will finally launch on August 28. But who cares about that⁠—the company’s press release also confirmed that the Tarnished Edition’s new goodies will also be coming to the PC version on the same day. The Tarnished Edition was initially supposed to be…
