I was looking forward to the release of Warhammer 40,000: Darktide from the moment it was announced. I’ve played over a hundred hours of Vermintide, and Vermintide 2, so I knew I could count on developer Fatshark to deliver a compelling action game. But when Darktide came out at the end of November, 2022, the

Microsoft has announced some of the games coming to Game Pass in October. From today through October 17, at least six games are coming to the service this month. Draw your blade and join the revolution. Like a Dragon: Ishin is coming to Game Pass on October 17. As previously reported, Gotham Knights lands on

Fast food restaurant chain KFC has awarded a speedrunner a gold trophy valued at over $10,000.  Inspired by the secret “11 herbs and spices” that constitute the recipe for KFC’s original flavor chicken, the competition required players to complete a bizarre challenge within The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Rather than asking gamers

Conceptually, Lies of P is possibly one of the funniest games I can imagine. A Soulsborne-style game based on Pinocchio? Are you yanking my chain? It doesn’t feel like it’s something that should work, nor even necessarily made in the first place (here comes that pesky ‘but’…) But! To be honest with you, it’s surprisingly

Sorry if you were hoping to pick up that limited edition Van Gogh Pikachu Pokemon card, as scalpers have done what they do best and put them up for hundreds online.

The Pokémon Company says it is “actively working on ways” to restock its Pokémon x Van Gogh Museum collection after scalpers promptly cleaned out the limited edition items. Citing “overwhelming demand”, the company apologized for disappointing fans who had missed out and said it would let them know about restock options “at a later day”.

Turns out that Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty is hiding a little reference to The Witcher 3, and one that should be music to your ears. Some mild, fairly early spoilers for Phantom Liberty ahead! It just seems like CD Projekt Red can’t help but reference itself. There’s already a Witcher reference in Cyberpunk in the

Those of you that wish you could play the digipick mini-game in Starfield over and over again, rejoice, as someone’s made a free browser version. One of the most classic aspects of Bethesda’s games is lockpicking. Honestly, I’d personally go so far as to say it’s my favourite thing about the dev’s games. There’s always

Mortal Kombat 1 creator Ed Boon has teased that we may soon be welcoming a whole new raft of frighteningly new fighters to the roster. In a post on Twitter/X, Boon posted an image that contained some of horror’s most iconic mascots, including Leatherface, Freddy, Michael Myers, Jason, Pinhead, Jigsaw, and Chucky. All the horror

Blizzard has confirmed that Diablo 4 will receive quality-of-life improvements throughout season two.  A recent Diablo 4 blog post announcing an upcoming developer update livestream on October 4 seems to have caused some confusion within the community about when new updates will arrive (via GamesRadar).  Apparently, some language used in the post has led some

CD Projekt RED has revealed highlights from the upcoming patch 2.01 for Cyberpunk 2077. The highlights touch on the most important fixes and improvements that will be included and are not the final notes.

I hate to navel-gaze about the nature of this job, but game previews are strange. Sometimes they’re easy, sometimes they are hard fought. Dragon’s Dogma 2 is one of those previews that hasn’t come easily. That’s why this preview is a little bit late, actually – I’d rather try to come at you with something

Sony has removed all tweets pertaining to Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake from its X account. The company has also privatized the announcement trailer from its YouTube channel, as well as the original PlayStation Showcase video that mentions the game. As of press time, the PS Blog post announcing KOTOR is still

After what seemed like years, a developer switch-up, and a bizarre name change – Lords of the Fallen is finally days away from release. That’s 14 days, to be exact, as of this writing. Developer Hexworks has been doing pretty well in demonstrating what makes this one a Souls-like worth your time. We’ve seen plenty

Just in case the initial tease, and subsequent Twitter account banner change didn’t give you enough of a hint, Counter-Strike 2 has indeed arrived on Wednesday, September 27. As was always the plan, the game replaced Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on Steam. In fact, the Steam store page retains pretty much everything from the original CS:GO
