Mortal Kombat was released three decades ago, in October of 1992, and its gory style of fighting has persisted through the years, through controversies, movies, and more.  The NetherRealm-developed series celebrates its 30th anniversary this month, and the studio has released a new trailer to highlight the legacy of the franchise and bathe players in

Last week, Google announced it plans to shut down Stadia on January 18. One of the less-discussed casualties of the news was that Tequila Works’ Gylt, a horror adventure game and the first Stadia-exclusive title, would disappear entirely.

What would be the most fitting end for Shenmue’s anime adaptation? To be cancelled with its story incomplete, of course. And so it is: Shenmue The Animation isn’t getting a season two.

I’ve no idea how many Steam Decks Valve have sold, but cor: it sure seems to be a success in terms of the diversity of games people are enjoying on it. Yesterday, the official Steam Deck Twitter account shared a list of the most played games on the handheld PC gaming machine in September. The
