Loopmancer reviewed by Justin Koreis on PC. Also available on PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. Loopmancer is a great roguelite.

Even after dozens of
Rumbleverse is a free-to-play brawler battle royale that has finally received a release date after being delayed back in February. Players only need to wait until next month to start landing their own elbow drops from the top of skyscrapers, and the game will even be skipping early access to go straight for a full
We found ourselves smack in the centre of The Legend of Bum-bo’s Venn diagram (right in its bum crack, as Bum-bo would say). We love The Binding of Isaac, warts and all, and we also love a bit of Puzzle Quest and Gems of War. And that’s largely what The Legend of Bum-bo is: an
Image: Nintendo / Nintendo Life Ah, the beautiful game. It’s the world’s most popular sport, so news that Mario Strikers: Battle League has already overtaken lifetime sales of Mario Golf: Super Rush in Europe less than a month after release may not come as a massive surprise, even if Super Rush has been out for
Audio player loading… Nintendo agrees with everyone: it’s too damn hot outside. So much so that it’s seen fit to tweet out a PSA to dissuade Nintendo Switch owners from taking their consoles outside. The Nintendo Switch‘s portability lends itself well to relaxing outdoor gaming sessions. But as a summer heatwave envelops the globe, Nintendo
DDR5 continues to drop in price, as more kits enter the market and supply increases. Today we spotted a 16GB stick of Crucial DDR5-4800 RAM going for just $70 at Amazon, nearly $20 below its original $89 MSRP set earlier this year. This is an awesome chance to build a new system with 32GB of
The Epic Games store is handing out two free games this week, and they are Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms and Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap. Both games are free to download and keep today through July 21. The cult-classic Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap returns and features hand-drawn animations and a re-orchestrated soundtrack.
Sony earlier announced the new PlayStation Stars program where players will be able to earn points for completing certain tasks.

Survios primarily develops VR titles and is perhaps best known as the team behind Creed: Rise to Glory.

Sonic Team head, Takashi Iizuka, has recently sat down for a rapid fire question and answer session with Game Informer which has been running most of the recent coverage of the upcoming Sonic Frontiers.

Gwent: Rogue Mage reviewed by Leana Hafer on PC. This standalone expansion to Gwent, itself a spin-off from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, is a roguelike successor to Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales. While the lighter story may not hit the same epic highs as Thronebreaker, its character-driven snippets are delivered with strong writing and voice

On this day, in the year of our Horace 2007, Rock Paper Shotgun was born. Yes, previous birthday posts will tell you the site’s official birthday is August 20th – the day RPS was fully unveiled to the world – but those same posts will also tell you the four RPS founders were mucking about

Klonoa 1 on the PlayStation was up over £100 due to its rarity. That
With an elaborate set of puzzles to solve and no shortage of jolting jump scares to shock you with, unraveling the morbid central mystery of Madison is a bit like trying to evacuate an escape room while simultaneously struggling to prevent the vacuation of your bowels. Taking clear inspiration from Hideo Kojima’s superb 2014 Silent
