"I Couldn’t Allow Myself To Kill My Soul" - Kamiya Dives Deeper On Why He Left PlatinumGames

Says Clovers offers a "fresh start". Hideki Kamiya has spoken pretty openly about his decision to leave PlatinumGames in late 2023, but in a new interview with Japanese outlet Game*Spark, he dived even deeper into what prompted his departure from the Bayonetta studio. Kamiya cut his teeth in the games industry at Capcom's Studio 4, where he worked under Resident Evil director Shinji Mikami, "a person who has been absolutely indispensable to my career," Kamiya told Game*Spark (translated by Autom...

Fielding may not be fun, but it could be more rewarding in MLB The Show 25’s career mode

Polygon icon 4 days, 46 minutes ago by Samit Sarkar

Fielding is perhaps the unsung hero of every baseball video game. There probably aren’t many MLB The Show players who ask themselves, upon first firing up the new game each year, What’s new on defense? But of course, it’s just as important a pillar of the sport as pitching, hitting, or baserunning — as my...

Monster Hunter Wilds already has a Rathalos-sized discount

I love the series, so it’s no surprise that Capcom’s Monster Hunter Wilds has already secured a spot as one of my favorite games of this year. Whether I’m planning to craft an armor set to survive battles against a Rathian, or purge the ugliest monster from the earth (Rompopolo, I'm looking at you), Monster Hunter Wilds ends up making me feel genuinely awesome during every session. If you’ve not yet played this excellent RPG, guess what? You can already get it at a discount.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows seasons explained

Want to know how seasons work in Assassin's Creed Shadows? The latest AC game includes a new dynamic weather and seasonal system, and though it adds to the overall immersion and feel of the game, it also affects gameplay, too. Each AC Shadows season lasts around two hours of gameplay in the RPG, with different states within the season, so the transition into each season isn't as jarring. You can view which season and how far you are into it by going to the AC Shadows map screen and looking at th...

Watch the weirdest thriller in years before it leaves Hulu

Recent history hasn’t produced many movies stranger or more specific than director Peter Strickland’s delightfully odd Flux Gourmet, released in 2022. It’s somewhere between a talky drama about the periphery of the art world, a thriller about creative rivalry, and a messy social horror movie about desperately needing to fart in socially unacceptable situations.

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.

Compulsion “made the game it wanted” with South of Midnight

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.

Magical Stardew Valley rival Fields of Mistria drops colossal free update

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.

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...

Why aren't there romances in Avowed? Obsidian explains

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...
