Switch it up. Sometimes, it can be hard to let go. The next generation of Nintendo hardware is just around the corner. As we say that, we look fondly at our TV console stand where our Switch sits, docked and charging, not a speck of dust on it. For many of us, it's the console of choice — whether sitting around the TV with friends and family, scrapping over a game of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe or Super Mario Party Jamboree or cosying up alone to sneak in a few hours of Animal Crossing: New Horizons or ...

There are plenty of new game releases this week, but it’s also officially Monster Hunter week. Long have we waited to hit lizards in Monster Hunter Wilds, and now we finally can. It’s joined by plenty of other games worth checking out, including three that are returning from entirely different eras of gaming. Before you...

Devolver Digital and Croteam have announced the release date for reimagined puzzler The Talos Principle: Reawakened, and you can try it on PC right now.

Google's Veo 2 model was announced last December, and now we have an idea of what using it will cost. According to its pricing page: 50 cents per second of footage. Veo 2 is presently limited to two-minute clips in up to 4K resolution — a fair sight more than the 20-second, 1080p clips generated by ChatGPT's Sora model. It's somewhat more difficult to compare the two on pricing as Sora uses a subscription-based approach. The staggering $200 ChatGPT Pro plan entitles a user to 500 videos per mont...

Good deals on fast Xbox Series X expansion cards don’t come around often enough, leaving gamers with no choice but to pay full price if they want enough storage for the latest Game Pass games, such as Avowed. However, there’s currently a steep price drop on the 1 TB WD Black C50 model that’s in...

Graphics benchmarks for Apple's yet-to-be announced MacBook Air models with M4 processors have popped up on Geekbench, giving us an idea of how much faster the GPU component of Apple's second-generation 3-nanometer chips are compared to the existing M3 models. A Geekbench 6 result listing for a "Mac16,12" was recorded on February 23 whose specs include a 10-core chip and 24GB of RAM. Notably, the machine is running a special 24C2101 build of macOS Sequoia 15.2 – the same version that Apple accid...

Because if there's one thing we need more of, it's big chunks of metal orbiting the planet.

Razer’s budget Barracuda has upgrades worthy of a bigger fish.

Once Human developer Starry Studio has finally revealed the release date for permanent servers; something that the community has been asking about for quite some time. You’ve not got long to wait either, as starting March 2025 every single server in the game (apart from private ones) will be converted into an indefinite one, with the new feature being expanded later in the year as well. So if you’ve been itching to stick to a specific server, there’s a lot you need to know.

Bungie has turned a Destiny 2 bug that mistakenly made class-locked Exotic weapons available to all into a feature.

Monster Hunter is back with a bang on current-gen consoles. Wilds - the latest series entry - features a seamless open world in a series first, plus plenty of visual bells and whistles courtesy of Capcom's RE Engine. So can the longstanding series hold up to current-gen pressure? And how do performance and image quality fare across PS5, Series X, and Series S?

The early hours of Monster Hunter Wilds are spent in the more muted colors of its ‘Fallow’ season. As I choose my starting weapon and the early hunts kickstart that specific flood of endorphins only Capcom’s flagship RPG can bring, I can’t help but start to miss the brighter tones of World and Rise. But then comes the ‘Inclemency’ - in this case, a raging sandstorm that floods the desert accompanied by vicious lightning strikes. Then, midway through my tussle with a giant Alpha Doshaguma, the st...

Hitting dinosaurs with hammers never felt so good.

A large beast covered in fur dives through a small, circular arena in the Iceshard Cliffs, tendrils of segmented scales twisting away from its body as it lunges forward and attempts to knock me off balance. I dive between its legs, blades whirling, opening a wound on its exposed chest. Instinctively I take advantage of...

Let us consider for a moment the duality of Monster Hunter. At a basic level, it couldn't be easier to explain – practically everything you need to know is right there in the title! This is a series about tracking enormous beasts, clobbering them into submission, then crafting their bits into better gear, fancier weapons – endlessly repeating that cycle until you simply can't muster the enthusiasm anymore. But it's also a series that's accrued such a vast wealth of interlinking and often comical...

Here we go again. One game I was excited about was the upcoming Mecha BREAK, which currently has a playtest demo on Steam but they've added in anti-cheat.

Microsoft boss Satya Nadella has said the company plans to train its new gaming AI on a "catalogue of games" soon, so it can then "start playing them".

Pentiment, Pillars Of Eternity, and Fallout: New Vegas director Josh Sawyer says there's enthusiasm at Obsidian for a potential tactics game set in the same universe as Avowed and the Pillars RPGs, but he's not sure the audience is there for it. "Pillars Tactics is a thing that a lot of people at the studio would like to work on, and there are a lot of people that like tactics games," he recently said on a livestream, but they'd need to work out "a scope of development where it feels like it cou...

A compact but chonky boi with Hall effect switches.

I played Dredge on an eight hour flight to New York. I vividly remember turning into a tight valley in search of resources, only to be set upon by some terrifying Lovecraftian-inspired leviathan that stalked my little tugboat from below. Paranoia began to set in, the once idyllic ocean warping and twisting, eyeballs swimming before my vision, taunting me. I let out a terrified squeak, not only waking up my snoring dad, but also attracting the attention of the flight attendant, who offered me a b...

This miqo'te's built different.

To a T, the latest game from Katamari and Wattam creator Keita Takahashi, is officially launching for PC and Xbox Series X|S in May.

Between Civilization 7, Manor Lords, Total War, and relative newcomers like Into The Breach and Tactical Breach Wizards, the strategy genre is as busy and full as it’s ever been. But do you ever feel like it’s gotten stuck? There are a lot of great games, but also, perhaps, a sense of endless ‘iteration’ - tweaking, revising, and improving, but not really driving forwards. Perhaps this is why Age of Empires 2, StarCraft 2, and Command and Conquer Remastered remain some of the most popular RTS ga...

Apple plans to launch a second-generation AirTag in May or June this year, according to a post today from a leaker known as Kosutami. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman previously reported that a new AirTag would be released in mid-2025. May or June would align with that timeframe. Below, we recap three new features rumored for the AirTag 2: With a second-generation Ultra Wideband chip, the AirTag 2 is expected to have up to 3× longer range compared to the current AirTag. The chip debuted in the iPhone 15 ...

The comics gave him a falcon...

That’s why weather agencies and climate scientists around the world are harnessing NVIDIA CorrDiff, a generative AI weather model that enables kilometer-scale forecasts of wind, temperature, and precipitation type and amount.

Have you ever had the chance to surprise someone you truly admire?  I recently got that chance – to surprise Nicolas Doucet with congratulations (and a cake!) celebrating his and Team Asobi’s well deserved Game of the Year win at The Game Awards for Astro Bot! It was such a fun moment… Neither of us...

Warner Bros and NetherRealm have revealed the release date for the upcoming Mortal Kombat 1 T-1000 DLC, and it's coming next month.

Destiny 2 players recently discovered a bug introduced by the game’s Heresy update earlier in February.
