It should not be a controversial stance to believe that you, as an actor, own your own voice. However, this belief is at the center of what could be a second major video game voice actor strike. The second such strike in a decade. On September 1, SAG-AFTRA – an American union representing artists across
The latest boxed-video game charts have come through from the largest gaming market in Europe, the United Kingdom, and it is Mortal Kombat 1 which has shot straight to No.1. The ultra-violent fighting game sold best on PlayStation 5 and was followed by the Xbox Series X|S versions and finally the Nintendo Switch version, which
There’s quite a selection of new PS5 and PS4 games arriving during the week beginning September 25, 2023, but not many of them can be considered AAA titles. The highlight is the full release of EA’s latest soccer game, the newly renamed EA Sports FC 24, but there are plenty of smaller games to keep
There are many unsightly euphemisms for the various stages of game development. My favourite used to be “sunsetting”, aka cancelling a live service game, aka “we dragged the servers outside and smashed them with bats, gangland style”. But now there’s a new front-runner, “simmering”. You know what’s simmering? Quantic Dream’s Star Wars: Eclipse, that’s what.

Despite being the founder of the company, Glen Schofield is leaving The Callisto Protocol developer Striking Distance Studios. Schofield is probably best known for being the creator of the Dead Space series, but last year saw his return to the horror genre with The Callisto Protocol.

Diminutive but super powerful. That’s the best way to describe the UGREEN Nexode 200W Charger. And frankly, that’s exactly what we are after from a desktop charger. Power delivery is something that has become ever more prominent in this modern life we lead. From Xbox controllers to mobile phones, to MacBooks, earbuds and gaming headsets,
Capcom had already confirmed that Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy is set to arrive on PC and Game Pass on September 26, but now we also have a firm release date for Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy – January 25, 2024 – and confirmation that a physical release is on the way, too. At Tokyo
While the Nintendo Switch lacks the raw processing grunt of the Xbox One and PS4, petrol heads have been increasingly well served on the hybrid console, with a steadily growing catalogue of fantastic racers that offer plenty of arcade thrills and spills — and you can do it on the move.

Japanese magazine Famitsu has been chatting with The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom director Hidemaro Fujibayashi and producer Eiji Aonuma about different parts of the critically acclaimed game. In this particular interview, the team touched on the design of the Depths which twist, turns, and unravels underneath the surface of Hyrule. Mr. Aonuma
Xbox historically hasn’t had a huge amount of Japanese exclusives, but Phil Spencer says you can “count on” more down the road. Because of the PlayStation being a console made by a Japanese company, and it being older than the Xbox, it’s not surprising that a lot of the biggest developers in the region have
Cyberpunk 2077‘s recent 2.0 update has made some big changes to the game, but it’s also added some extras here and there, like a brand new arcade game. The last update before 2.0 arrived, patch 1.6, added in an arcade game you could play in Cyberpunk 2077 called Roach Race, a simple pixel art game
If there is a driving game up for review, you’d best believe I’ll be putting my hand up to try it out and then scribble some words. Except The Crew Motorfest, as I still haven’t gotten over the disappointment of the first game. Anyway, what this rambling opening is leading onto is the arrival on
For the third day in a row, Payday 3 players are continuing to struggle to get online to play.

Now, in an update, it’s been confirmed a physical release is coming to Japan and other Asia regions on the same date. The
It’s happening again. As sure as Square Enix overestimating their sales projections, as sure as John Riccitiello pissing off every available customer, EVE Online developers CCP will try to make a first-person shooter set in the same universe. This time it’s called EVE Vanguard, a shooter “module” which will sit within the EVE launcher and
