The Star Wars Jedi: Survivor experience on PC is, at least here on release day, a generally pleasurable Far Far Away fantasy marred by some ugly performance issues. After a few hours’ worth of attempts to get it running on the Steam Deck, I can now – with a face similar to that of Ewan

With 30 million-odd pre-registrations under its belt prior to coming out, Honkai: Star Rail was always going to be a pretty big deal when it eventually launched. The turn-based anime RPG did exactly that earlier this week, and it’s already been downloaded over 20 million times in just a single day, according to a tweet

Live A Live was originally released in 1994, but only on SNES and only in Japan. It was short as far as Square Enix JRPGs from the period go, but was unique in that it featured 8 inter-connected stories set across 8 time periods. Last year, a remake brought the game to Nintendo Switch, and

Confession time, everyone: I’m still only about 2.5 hours into Disco Elysium. Games journalism sin or what? Somehow, despite being primed by the excellent time I had with its demo five years ago, I just bounced off this one. I very quickly got stuck in a frustrating loop of fatally ballsing up no matter what

Join hosts Wesley LeBlanc and Kyle Hilliard as the two take a quick look at Bramble: The Mountain King, a spooky and horrific adventure game inspired by Nordic Folklore that plays like Little Nightmares. It comes from Dimfrost Studios and features gorgeous (if not terrifying) visuals and a fun loop of traversal and puzzle solving.

Ahead of an upcoming open playtest, Blizzard have released their latest developer design video on Diablo 4, this time tackling player choice and the action RPG’s different classes. My favourite detail is that you can become a werewolf and “do werewolf things”. Although getting to that stage may take a while, as associate game director

Funko Fusion, the mash-up co-op action game featuring a bizarre assortment of disparate properties, is the first game from 10:10 Studios. The studio was founded by TT Games veterans like Arthur Parsons, who worked as lead designer on about a dozen of TT Games’ Lego games. The game features Funko characters and worlds from Jurassic

Dota 2‘s New Frontiers update has been released and it’s a big one. As well as tweaking UI and balance and reworking heroes, it also makes sweeping changes to Dota’s single, three-lane battlefield. Specifically: it makes it 40% larger than it was before.

Join hosts Wesley LeBlanc and Kyle Hilliard as the two take a quick look at Afterimage, a new 2D action-adventure Metroidvania from Aurogon Shanghai. Featuring gorgeous hand-drawn art, Afterimage is sure to be a pretty game to play through soon. And fortunately, you don’t have to wait long because it hits PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, and

Hello! Come on in. Please, take a seat. Welcome to the inaugural episode of our brand new (and currently untitled) supporter-first indie video show! Every month*, I’m going to be spending some time highlighting a cool indie game that deserves your attention. Think of this series as a supplement to Sin’s Scout Report or our

I am once again spending a candidate for this year’s Summer Strategy Game For When Brain Is Melt. Total Tank Generals is possibly the best introduction to wargames I’ve ever played, but to call it a light strategy game would feel like a disservice. If you’re used to heavier fare this may still scratch the

One of the most exciting and mysterious elements of Street Fighter 6 has been a World Tour, a single-player open-world exploration mode Capcom had previously only shown glimpses of. Thankfully, today’s Street Fighter 6 Showcase finally pulled the curtain back on what World Tour entails and it looks delightfully bonkers. World Tour begins with players creation
