I do love a game that tells you upfront what it's about while making nary a lick of sense, and visual novel Stop Burying Me Alive, Beautiful is certainly that. You are, indeed, being buried alive. The person burying you is your girlfriend, who waves aside your protests that you aren't dead yet, pointing out that this is exactly what a dead person would say if they were trying to avoid being buried. Can't fault the logic. Click the downward arrow below the animated image of your girlfriend buryin...

The Pokemon Company released the first of a new series of shorts featuring a mix between live action and CGI, titled "A Camping Trip with Pokemon."

EA has revealed that EA Sports FC 24 hit a pretty impressive player count during its launch week, and there's good news for the mobile version too.

When it comes to supporting upscaling and performance enhancing technologies, like Nvidia DLSS 3, not all games are developed equally. This predicament is leaving the modding community to pick up the slack, providing support when developers won't, as is the case with Assassin's Creed Mirage.

Apple CEO Tim Cook has explained why the company releases a new iPhone every year, what the device will be like in the future, what he is personally doing to reduce his carbon footprint, and more in a new interview with Brut. The brief interview, shot at an Apple data center and solar power facility in Denmark, delves mainly into Cook's opinion on various environmental issues such as "greenwashing." Cook explained that Apple wants to contrast its secrecy about its products with openness about it...

Payday 3 has had a rough launch; patches have been delayed and the matchmaking has been anything but stable. So, while Starbreeze has promised to fix these issues and said more heists are on the way for the co-op shooter, it’s currently being eclipsed by its predecessor Payday 2 on Steam.

The best VR headset just got a whole lot better.

The Meta Quest 3 arrived on the scene accompanied by big promises and a bigger price tag. As it now hits store shelves, I can confidently say that Meta has delivered on many of its key statements, proving that, while VR gaming is still yet to hit its peak, a golden age appears to be just on the horizon.  However, does the Meta Quest 3 push enough boundaries to be considered one of the best VR headsets ever? Quite comfortably, yes. In my time testing Meta’s new flagship VR product, it is clear th...

Head(sets) up, Readers. Due to a snafu with Meta's servers during the Quest 3 review window and a last minute embargo change, I've only been able to spend around five to six hours with the unit so far. This means the impressions below are based on those first few hours, rather than an extended play test with multiple titles. As you'll soon see, my initial thoughts are very positive but please bear in mind there is a chance I'll have missed some underlying issues that will only arise from longer ...

The Meta Quest 3 proves that the Meta Ques 2 was just an impossibly good deal. When that VR headset arrived for just $300 three years ago, it was the perfect gateway to VR for most people. You didn't need to hook it up to anything, you just flipped it on and stepped into virtual reality. But then Meta raised the price to $400 last year, and the entire VR industry just started to feel very stale. It's no wonder the $1,500 Meta Quest Pro completely flopped – VR was already struggling, and few peop...

It’s built to do more than just VR, but there still aren’t enough great VR or MR titles to make it worth the cost.

Discern a particular location by checking the clues.

Field hospital management sim War Hospital has been delayed beyond 2023, developer Brave Lamb and publisher Nacon have announced.

Sure, Assassin's Creed Mirage goes back to the roots of what made the series so great, trading out the oversized world of Valhalla for a slimmed-down, more authentic recreation of 9th-century Baghdad, but for me the best thing about the game is the cats. Small and fluffy, or skinny and sassy, there's a feline for everyone in AC Mirage - but if you miss out on this unmarked side-quest, they'll be one less little black cat to brighten your day.

Developer Jagex has announced its controversial Hero Pass will be removed from RuneScape following the end of its first season in December. Hero Pass was described by Jagex as an "always-on reward system" and it was introduced into RuneScape last month. It was heavily criticised by players for pay-to-win elements such as XP buffs, which prompted Jagex to temporarily roll back the update shortly after Hero Pass launched. Following feedback from a player survey, Jagex announced Hero Pass will end ...

There's a talented new D&D group on the horizon - including Eurogamer's very own Aoife Wilson! - who are set to begin their adventures this very week. Natural Six will introduce themselves via a live show on Friday at EGX 2023 - the UK games event run by Eurogamer's parent company Reedpop. You can watch there or tune in online at 6pm UK time.

This long-awaited sequel arrives on Switch and other consoles on 16th November 2023, and today's trailer highlights the game's main narrative.

What are the best CS2 launch options? Counter-Strike 2 is all about optimization - Finding the ideal route through a map, the most efficient buy order, and training your aim to perfectly counter the recoil of your favorite gun. It’s about honing your abilities to be the most efficient killing tool you can be. The process of improving as a player, however, starts before you’ve even launched the FPS game. You can actually change how Counter-Strike 2 launches, and if done correctly, it will increas...

It appears that Windows 12 could be on its way to grace our gaming PCs sooner rather than later. While there's no official word from Microsoft yet, comments by Intel CFO Dave Zinsner point to the imminent arrival of something big for the operating system series.

Today I learned that the universe of Cyberpunk 2077 has something called 'Exotics' in it. Basically, rich people sculpt furred skins, animal-like faces, ears, and other features onto themselves as a hobby out of pure boredom. This wasn’t in CD Projekt Red’s virtual version of the tabletop sci-fi RPG, but now it is. Thanks to the incredible work of one modder you can now be a furry in Night City, and no I'm not joking.

Cops use all sorts of tech to track individuals — facial recognition comes to mind, as does mimicking cell phone towers to get pings or mobile data tracking. But some people are finding ways to use technology to listen back. Bluetooth signals might reveal where police are and when they are and when devices like body cams or Tasers are activated. “It’s be really weird if you had your volume turned all the way up and all of your devices are just screaming, right?,” Alan “Nullagent” Meekins, cofoun...

There might be too much on this show’s shoulders.

Remedy Entertainment's creative director Sam Lake will be at EGX this weekend, talking about the return of Alan Wake. He'll be on the EGX Theatre stage from 3pm BST on Friday 13th. To coincide with him being at the show, I'm going to be interviewing him. But because Victoria has recently done such a thorough job of both previewing Alan Wake 2, and talking to Sam Lake about it, a window of opportunity has opened to ask questions submitted by you. I will have my own questions to ask, of course, bu...

How long is Lords of the Fallen? Hexworks’ grimdark soulslike reboot promises to send players on an epic journey across Mournstead in order to stop the resurrection of a demon god. You can expect your playthrough to involve traversing multiple worlds and inevitably dying to tough-as-nails bosses. But just how long will it take to complete the story and save the world? We’ve got the answers. There are plenty of factors that can affect the length of time it takes to beat Lords of the Fallen. For a...

What are the best AC Mirage mods? As with any open-world game, there is only so much time you can spend running around the map getting into trouble - even in a beautifully dense place like Baghdad - and after your countless hours, it’s natural to look for a way to tweak the experience. Mods, it turns out, are perfect for this. In AC Mirage, you play Basim, a former street rat who found his way into a hidden order of assassins through a terrible tragedy and a lot of hard work. You’ll spend many a...

Despite what Jules Verne may have you believe, it's not exactly possible to journey to the center of the Earth. As such, it's pretty difficult to gain a full understanding of what the core of our planet looks like. NASA is trying the next best thing.  It's set to launch a mission to an asteroid that's understood to be largely made up of iron and nickel. In fact, this metal-rich asteroid, which is called 16 Psyche, is believed to once have been part of a planetary core. This is the first NASA mis...

What is the Asgard's Wrath 2 release date? Following Meta's acquisition of Sanzaru Games, Asgard's Wrath 2 has become the focal point for pushing the Meta Quest 3 to its limits and showing what the VR headset is capable of. Meta has even made a huge play to ensure as many people as possible will have the opportunity to play the game.

Ashborne Games and THQ Nordic have announced the Last Train Home release date, with the brutal war strategy game launching next month.
