Security cameras can give you peace of mind by watching things when you’re out of the house. They can also help keep tabs on your pets’ actions or let you check in on other parts of your property like your backyard. Set them up outdoors or at a window and you can get notifications when someone’s delivering a package or heading to your door.Of course, anything that takes footage in and around your home is a privacy risk, so you’ll want to look for security cameras with proper privacy features.

If you prefer to buy your games for Linux on GOG, there's a fresh update to Minigalaxy, the open source simple GOG client.

NetEase Games is giving every single Marvel Rivals player some free in-game currency following a huge server issue. You don’t have forever to claim the gift, however, so I wouldn’t wait around until the last minute. Still, such a short period of downtime being met by free in-game currency is always a nice surprise to wake up to.

The MOBA genre has been silent for a long time. Presided over by twin titans Dota 2 and League of Legends, we've seen challengers come and go, with most failing to really carve out a place for themselves. But that's slowly changing. 2024 saw the revival of Predecessor, a remake of Epic Games' Paragon, as well as the rise of Supervive, Theorycraft Games' colorful MOBA brawler hybrid. Then, of course, there's Deadlock, Valve's newest project that's already proven itself a worthy challenger despite...

D&D in your D&D.

Amazon doesn’t usually do device events in February, but in a year of turbulence, why not? The company is holding a presentation in New York, and, like in the past, Amazon won’t be livestreaming anything. Engadget will attend, however, and liveblog the event so you’ll know what’s happening. Amazon has teased its next-gen Alexa for what feels like years, promising a conversational vibe and the ability to process and execute complex requests. Is it ready to chat? And what random tech will Amazon c...

Apple has reportedly shut down access to the Apple Developer Enterprise Program (ADEP) for Russian developers. Russian IT sources told RBC that developers lost access to the platform on February 12. The shutdown means Russian developers can no longer use ADEP to create and distribute custom iOS apps for internal use without going through the App Store. A software company in St. Petersburg confirmed to the media outlet that all program data had been erased, making ADEP unusable. Prior to the cut-...

In typical shinobi style, Assassin's Creed Shadows has slipped through the cracks of physical and digital retail and sneakishly released itself a month ahead of schedule. The game is due to launch on 20th March, but people are already posting photographs of boxed copies, while others say they've managed to lift a code from the crevices of the PlayStation store. Videos of the game have been popping up on Youtube like Ninja Whac-a-Moles, no sooner seen than shurikened by Ubisoft's lawyers. Quite h...

Whether it’s gaming or AI you’re looking for, MSI has a motherboard that can speed your PC into the next generation

With melting power cables and practically fictional stock levels, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5000 launch has already come in for some criticism, but now Nvidia has admitted that there’s another problem. After recent reports that some RTX 5090 and 5070 Ti GPUs didn’t have the correct number of render outputs (ROPs), the GPU maker has now confirmed that this is also the case with some Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 cards too, and it can result in a 4% drop in gaming performance. The first reports of missing ...

A new story trailer for the upcoming Lies Of P Overture expansion shows us more of the "legendary stalker" the player will be following through the snowy surroundings of Krat. The lore is served up raw with a heavy garnishing of opaque chatter that explains absolutely nothing. But I hear that's how you cook a soulslike story. Come watch and see if you can understand more of the stalker's words than I do. You probably will if you recognise the classical tune playing underneath it all.

When an online game has been around for a decade or more, it often evolves into something new. Overwatch became Overwatch 2, OSRS split off from RuneScape, and even Destiny eventually got a sequel. Valve's Team Fortress 2 is no different. Made free-to-play in 2011 and smothered in updates since then, it's still one of the biggest games on Steam despite being very different from its original form. Now, the longstanding TF2 Classic mod is finally coming to Valve's platform, and it offers entirely ...

Sequel is finally launching later this year. It's been a bloomin' long time coming, but Level-5's Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time is finally making its way to the Switch on 22nd May 2025 following multiple delays. To really drive the message that this date is likely final, two new commercials have been released (thanks, Go Nintendo) that highlight some tasty gameplay before reconfirming the game's upcoming launch. They're not particularly lengthy, but we get a good glimpse at what you'l...

Apple Fellow Phil Schiller testified in court on Monday that he initially opposed the 27% commission Apple now charges on purchases made outside the App Store, citing compliance risks and potential developer backlash (via AP News). Schiller, who oversees the App Store, said he had concerns that the fee would create an "antagonistic relationship" between Apple and developers, and worried about Apple becoming "some kind of collection agency" that might need to audit developers who didn't pay. "I h...

How it will fare in future is hard to say.

Quantic Dream, the NetEase-owned developer behind Heavy Rain, Detroit and the upcoming Star Wars Eclipse has broken its silence following the layoffs and shutdowns seen across numerous other NetEase-supported studios.

It's been three years today since Valve released the Steam Deck. Not only has Valve shown how incredible Linux actually can be as a gaming platform, but they really kicked the industry into gear on PC gaming handhelds.

Ultra fast, ultra shiny, ultra expensive.

Apple is making significant headway on its long-rumored foldable iPhone, with a new report suggesting the company has achieved a major breakthrough by effectively eliminating the screen crease that plagues current foldable devices.

Sorcerous cardgame Balatro and slot machine RPG Luck Be A Landlord have been reclassified as fit for people aged 12 years and over by the Pan European Games Information board, after they were initially slapped with an 18 rating for "glamorising... the simulation of gambling". PEGI have made the change following a successful appeal against the 18 rating by Balatro's European publisher Sold Out and Luck Be A Landlord's Switch publisher Fangamer. They're also going to develop "a more granular set o...

We've got a Good-Feel(ing) about this. The developer behind the likes of Kirby's Epic Yarn and Princess Peach: Showtime!, Good-Feel, appears to be hiring for multiple positions.

Bloober Team will follow up its hugely successful Silent Hill 2 remake with a new joint project with Konami.

I’ve been trying the demo for Squirreled Away, and for some reason it keeps wanting me to play it as some kinda 2024-as-heck survival crafting game. At this, I make several rapid sniffing-like movements, then scarper adeptly yet dismissively up the nearest tree. It’s just far more fun to treat this as a casual squirrel sim, or, at the very least, a platformer where you occasionally need to steal some strawberries.

Probably one of the most exciting upcoming point and click adventures is Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer, and now you can get any early look thanks to a demo release for Steam Next Fest.
