Money can buy an ultra-fast Mac, but it cannot buy ultra-fast delivery, apparently. Apple's new Mac Studio with M4 Max and M3 Ultra chip options began arriving to customers today, but the highest-end model is facing delays. If you order a maxed-out Mac Studio with a 32-core M3 Ultra chip, 512GB of unified RAM, and 16TB of SSD storage on Apple's online store today, the mind-boggling $14,099 configuration will not arrive until late March. Unsurprisingly, it is the massive 512GB of RAM upgrade opti...

"PlayerAuctions refuses to stop."

It's hard to believe that it's been seven years since We Happy Few. Easily one of my favorite games, I've missed Compulsion's "handcrafted, hallucinatory adventures," silently hoping that its Deep South-set adventure game South of Midnight will live up to expectations. With launch just around the corner, I sat down with game director Jasmin Roy and narrative director Zaire Lanier to ask if they're feeling the pressure - especially given the divisive nature of their earlier games.

Hayao Miyazaki’s Princess Mononoke has always been big. When it was first released in Japan in 1997, it became the country’s all-time highest-grossing film. Its legacy — as a Miyazaki masterpiece about what we owe to the environment, as one of the titles that started getting academics and critics to sit up and take anime...

Out of all the games to take inspiration from Stardew Valley, Fields of Mistria is easily one of the best. With a 97% Steam rating from over 16,000 players, the magic-infused and late-‘90s-inspired farming sim is ultra slick and wholesome. If you’re a fan of genre classics like Harvest Moon and Animal Crossing, this is one you don’t want to miss. As developer NPC Studio continues the early access journey, Fields of Mistria’s second major update is here,  and it massively overhauls the game.

Apple plans to release a new Studio Display in late 2025 or early 2026, according to Ross Young, a display industry expert and VP at Counterpoint Research. In a subscriber-only post shared on X last month, Young said the new Studio Display will feature the same 27-inch screen size as the current model, but add mini-LED backlighting. This upgrade would result in increased brightness and higher contrast ratio compared to the current model, which has traditional LED backlighting. Young did not shar...

It's even okay with you selling your RX 9070 Quicksilver mods.

It looks like we might be getting our first, official glimpse of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti gaming GPUs imminently. A new leak suggests that the new GPUs are going to be officially announced on March 13, although it may take a few weeks before the graphics cards are actually released to the public. These new Nvidia graphics cards will look to dominate the mid to lower end of the GPU market, but they’re going to face some stiff competition. With AMD offering serious competition w...

Pocketpair has announced that the Palworld crossplay update, which will allow you to play with others on different platforms, is coming later in March.

The recent wave of good deals on Apple gear doesn't stop at iPad, MacBook Air or Apple Watch models. A four-pack of Apple AirTags has dropped back down to a record low price of $64.49. That's 35 percent off the regular price of $99. The AirTag is our pick for the best Bluetooth tracker for iPhone users. AirTags are deeply integrated into Apple's ecosystem, making them a cinch to set up using an iPhone. They're easy to use as well as they work with Apple's Find My app. In large part thanks to the...

It’s a pretty good time to be an Avatar: The Last Airbender fan. There’s an animated series and movie on the way, collaborations with Overwatch 2 and Magic: The Gathering, and a even a new deck-building game. This week, ATLA fans received another boon: A box set of Avatar: The Last Airbender comics was released...

Split Fiction, the long-awaited It Takes Two follow-up from developer Hazelight Studios, is a very fun couch co-op game in a gaming environment with fewer and fewer of those. The game has creative mechanics that encourage two players to work together and a large variety of settings and types of play, plus it’s relatively easy...

A far from small tenkeyless board boasting a premium feature set.

Romance has become increasingly common in role-playing games in recent years, having had central roles in Baldur's Gate 3, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and Cyberpunk 2077, to name a recent few. But it was conspicuously absent from Obsidian's latest RPG, Avowed, and I am not the only person to wonder why.

What a difference a few weeks make. It wasn't that long ago that question marks were still hanging over Obsidian's coral-coloured role-playing game Avowed. Promotional trailers had left people unconvinced, showing an adventure that looked old-fashioned and lacking in originality. Yet weeks later, Avowed has wide acclaim. "It's one of this year's most pleasant surprises," I wrote in our Avowed review. It's a game that went from being under suspicion to an unlikely Xbox star. Obsidian has proven t...

Alien: Earth is easily one of this year’s most anticipated TV premieres. Despite this, apart from a brief teaser trailer and a few sizzle reel shots, we know next to nothing about Noah Hawley’s upcoming series set in the Alien universe other than it’s got Xenomorphs… and they’re on Earth! On Monday, that all changed...

Have you ever been shushed during the credits of a movie? I have. So let’s talk about movie theater etiquette. Earlier this year, I went to the Academy Museum in Los Angeles for a screening of Denis Villeneuve’s Arrival. (Great movie!) But even before it even started — there weren’t any commercials, since this was...

Paradox has announced a new core expansion coming to its strategy game Crusader Kings 3 this April, inspired by Genghis Khan and the Mongols.

Golden Llamas are Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2’s take on the Supply Llama.

Chudo-Yudo Games are working on Machine Mind, an interesting mixture of strategy and action genres blended together. There's a demo available to try with Linux support, along with an expanded playtest.

There are many reasons Devil May Cry fans will enjoy the upcoming show adaptation's new trailer. But, I must warn you, after watching it Papa Roach's "Last Resort" will be stuck in your head for days. The early 2000s song plays alongside a two-minute trailer that showcases Dante and, notably, his twin brother Vergil.  There are many great takeaways from this peek at the show, but one of the most amusing might be when Lady rips of Dante's shirt and he responds, "Ripped and irresistible dream boat...

The rumors were true. Niantic’s games division, which makes the augmented reality megahit Pokémon Go, has been sold to mobile gaming powerhouse Scopely for a whopping $3.5 billion. As confirmed by Niantic, Scopely, and the Pokémon Go team, the deal will see the entire Niantic Games operation snapped up by Scopely, which among many, many...

The upcoming iOS 18.4 update for the iPhone includes a smaller but meaningful improvement for Apple's in-car iPhone mirroring system CarPlay. Specifically, CarPlay now shows a third row of icons, up from two rows previously. However, this change is only visible in vehicles with a larger center display. For example, a MacRumors Forums member noticed the change in a Toyota Tundra with a 14-inch screen. In our testing, CarPlay still showed two rows of four icons in a Honda Civic with a 9-inch scree...

A new Diablo Immortal roadmap reveals nearly everything we can expect through the end of 2025, and there’s a lot to look forward to if you’re playing the free PC game.

It's official — Niantic, the developer of Pokémon GO, Pikmin Bloom, and Monster Hunter Now, has sold its gaming division for a staggering $3.5 billion to Scopely, "a world leader in mobile games".

Dungeons & Dragons’ Sigil platform, available in full with the Master Tier subscription to D&D Beyond, would be much easier to recommend if there was an asterisk in the title. The seminal tabletop role-playing game’s first internally produced 3D virtual tabletop (VTT) app is finally live, and it offers players and Dungeon Masters alike a...

And it's all because of Donald Trump? This story will run and run...

Mike Verdu has left Netflix, according to Game File with Stephen Totilo. Netflix brought the former Oculus and EA exec onboard to launch and lead its gaming efforts in 2021. Under Verdu's leadership, the company released a bunch of new and ported titles, as well as establishing an internal game development operation. In mid-2024, however, Netflix changed its gaming strategy and hired Alain Tascan, the executive vice president for game development at Epic Games, to lead its gaming efforts. Verdu ...
