"The main storyline and expeditions routes can be completed in parallel, so you’ll benefit from progress in either!"

The camel's back. After going hands-on with the hardware, we can confirm that Switch 2 is exciting. It not only promises fresh Nintendo goodness but also to reinvigorate the OG Switch libraries many of us have been building up over the past eight years. The future is looking bright for Nintendo lifers, though a few too many unclear details and small disappointments are taking the shine off what should be a celebratory occasion. Some of these factors are out of Nintendo's control, to be fair. The...

I did something horrible. I told Jafar, the scheming vizier villain in Disney’s Aladdin, about cryptocurrency, and now he’s determined to get WyshCoin off the ground by selling the luxurious lifestyle associated with the brand. The problem is he’s actually broke, so I need to brew him teleportation potion after teleportation potion so he can...

I’m standing over a desk in the Unity offices in Copenhagen with a fellow member of the press and two of the 10 Chambers team. Laid across the table is a building blueprint strewn with photos of key POIs. We’re deliberating over how to proceed with our upcoming heist. Should we split up or stick together? Move around the building in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction? Work up the floors or down? It feels like I could be part of a real heist, and this is the essence of Den of Wolves.

A new build-your-own PC gaming bundle featuring 25 puzzle, action, exploration, and adventure games is up for grabs right now. The custom deal includes classics from series such as Broken Sword and Deponia, along with a variety of other Indies, and you’ll pay as little as $1.45 per game if you buy enough of them at once. Grab the full package and you’re looking at a whopping $450 worth of games for less than $30, all available to redeem via Steam, so don't miss your chance.

Between Hades 2 updates, I’m always on the lookout for more action-packed roguelikes. I love that Supergiant Games has inspired so many to follow in its stead, because it means I’ve always got other similar experiences to try. TMNT: Splintered Fate, [REDACTED], and Realm of Ink are just some of the games taking from Hades, but another challenger has entered the arena. Rogue Loops is finally available on Steam, and it twists the entire roguelike formula with one novel idea.

Tuesday morning, Lionsgate announced that among a trio of new projects in the John Wick universe, there will be an animated prequel movie about the night the master assassin initially broke free from his obligation to the High Table. Intended for “more mature audiences,” the movie will be directed by Shannon Tindle (Ultraman: Rising) and...

"I had a document about Dishonored 3."

Here's where you can find Rainbow Road. New key art for Donkey Kong Bananza isn't the only thing that's apparently popped up on Nintendo's Korean website. It seems there's also been a track confirmation for Mario Kart World.

The Switch 2 is a social machine. For the console’s second iteration, Nintendo prioritized processing power capable of large-scale multiplayer. The Joy-Cons’ new C button lets you instantly join a group chat with shared-screen play options. Extensions in the Nintendo Switch Online app will add dimension to old titles, including autobuild-sharing in The Legend of...

Can't always get what U want. Wind Waker is coming to Switch 2! With a whole load of classic GameCube games too! And a nice optional CRT filter! In a week with more official Nintendo announcements than we've had in the last year combined, this news could be seen as minor, but it ticks off yet another missing link in the Zelda canon that wasn't previously playable on a Switch. Not the Switch that you own right now, but one you've probably got your eye on if you're reading this. And there was much...

Microsoft has turned Quake 2 into a generative AI tech demo, and people do not like it. Using the company’s new videogame gen AI model Muse, which can make game visuals and assign controller actions, id’s classic FPS has been turned into a brief, in-browser experience anyone can try. Despite its status as a tech demo, however, many aren't pleased with this version of Quake.

As it prepares to launch the next Battle Aces beta, developer Uncapped Games gives us a sneak peek at some of the new units coming to its fast-paced RTS. The upcoming strategy game, which combines a creative deckbuilding element with gameplay that draws inspiration from classics like Command and Conquer, has already shown plenty of promise. It’s certainly got the prestige behind it: senior game director David Kim is a former Blizzard veteran best known for his work as StarCraft 2’s lead multipla...

Path of Exile 2 Steam reviews are tumbling as the ARPG’s new Dawn of the Hunt update falls flat across its player base. PoE 2’s launch last year made a big splash, setting records for developer Grinding Gear Games with the sequel to one of the most beloved games like Diablo. Unfortunately, the response to its first major overhaul has largely been one of disappointment. The game’s 30-day rating on the Valve store has collapsed to a ‘mixed’ score with just 55% of responses positive, as players bem...

The long-rumored Oblivion remake could - I repeat, could - be closer than you think. With months of scuttlebutt suggesting Bethesda and Xbox are poised to reveal the colossal reinvention any day now, another piece of potential evidence has emerged. So if you’re desperate for more The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion in your life, it’s time to put on the tinfoil hat.

All-star brawl. Hello folks, and welcome to another edition of Box Art Brawl! Before we get onto this week's very special one-off battle, let's see how things went down last time. We looked at Tomodachi Life to celebrate the newly-announced sequel for the Nintendo Switch, and it wasn't even remotely close. North America absolutely killed it with 65% of the vote! Europe came second with 18%, and Japan third with 17%.

The physical version, according to Nintendo's customer support. Nintendo earlier this week announced select games from the Switch generation would be getting 'Switch 2 Edition' releases. A Nintendo customer service representative has reportedly shed light on the exact content included in the physical versions - claiming the Switch 2 Edition upgrade packs will be "download codes".

The unique bundle-zine's been going since 2020.

Get ready for 60fps, crossplay and exclusive modes. Street Fighter 6 is on its way to the Switch 2 and if you're wondering how it compares to certain other versions, we've now got a side-by-side comparison. This upload, shared by the YouTube channel ElAnalistaDeBits, shows the Switch 2 version running alongside the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 versions of the game.

Help with solving Sunday's puzzle.

A bear, too.

Is that...?! Some key art for the upcoming Switch 2 game Donkey Kong Bananza might have been accidentally leaked ahead of schedule. On Nintendo's Korean website, art featuring Donkey Kong and...spoiler...what looks like a "young Pauline" has supposedly been published. It seems we've also got a full art reveal. This discovery follows Nintendo sharing the same graphic (without this character in it) in other parts of the world.

"We're still improving the performance". Cyberpunk 2077 is on the way to the Nintendo Switch 2 this June and more details about it are beginning to surface. Firstly, CD Projekt Red has confirmed the Nintendo release will be "fully cross-progression compatible" with versions on other platforms.

Right, anybody fancy a new Abiotic Factor update? Well, it's not ready just yet, but developer Deep Field Games did share a look at the game's upcoming Cold Fusion update that looks like it'll be a beefy one. As you can probably guess by the title of the update, there's a bit of a chill coming, specifically in a new area called the Residence Sector. This new locale has "something" going on that's making it a bit too cold for anyone to hang out in, though the mystery behind it is something you'll...

Meta has released the first two models from its multimodal Llama 4 suite: LLama 4 Scout and Llama 4 Maverick. Maverick is “the workhorse” of the two and excels at image and text understanding for “general assistant and chat use cases,” the company said in a blog post, while the smaller model Scout could tackle things like “multi-document summarization, parsing extensive user activity for personalized tasks, and reasoning over vast codebases.” The company also introduced Llama 4 Behemoth, an upco...

"Good thing we are protecting children from knowing what a 4 of a kind is and letting them watch CS case opening videos instead."

Petras had a long and illustrious career in the games industry, mostly at Blizzard Entertainment.

You know, I've always loved me a sky island in a video game. Can't really tell you why, I just think they're neat! So right from the get go I was pretty easily won over by Lost Skies, another one of those open world survival crafting type games. It's a genre I'm not easily won over by, I don't care for building things all that much, but the pull of the open air is pretty alluring to me. And I won't even have very long to see if I'll bounce off of its craftiness or not, because developer Bossa St...

I'm vibrating out of my seat.

I think if you were to show someone the trailer for Mewgenics, complete with cats you-know-whating, a musical number, and a poop joke, they'd probably be taken quite aback. However, if you were to tell them that it's from the same people that made Super Meat Boy and The Binding of Isaac, I'm sure they'd be able to understand much quicker. Aside from coming from some pretty notable indie devs, there still might be the question of why it's such a big deal that Mewgenics finally got a trailer, and ...

Amazon's new feature could make it easier to get into the latest release in a series, especially if it's been some time since you've read the previous books. The new Recaps feature is part of the latest software update for the Kindle, and the company compares it to "Previously on..." segments you can watch for TV shows. Amazon announced Recaps in a blog post, where it said that you can get access to it once you receive the software update over the air or after you download and install it from Am...

Despite their name, the best idle games typically offer a nice amount of player choice. Whether you’re deciding how best to apply your resources in Cookie Clicker or laying out your route in Loop Hero, smart clicker design uses the automated elements to enhance the overall experience. Bringing together those concepts with a top-down combat style reminiscent of Vampire Survivors, Nomad Idle has just landed on Steam, and it’s already caught my eye with its surprisingly deep design.

Say goodbye to red spines. We've had an absolute overload of information about the Switch 2 this week and somehow fans keep finding all sorts of new and exciting details. If you haven't already noticed, Switch 2 game cases are now slightly different (and seemingly a bit bigger). Instead of transparent plastic borders, they're now red. Perhaps most interestingly though is how the box art wraps around the case, over the spine. In other words, you'll no longer be looking at red spines with mostly j...

UK-based Jaguar Land Rover says it’s pausing shipments to the US after President Donald Trump imposed a 25 percent tariff on passenger vehicles and other auto imports. The pause will be in effect this month, the Associated Press reports. While the full impact of the tariffs remains to be seen, analysts have said the move could ultimately drive up the cost of new and even used cars. “The USA is an important market for JLR’s luxury brands,” Jaguar Land Rover said in a statement to AP. “As we work ...

Physical copies of OG Switch games upgraded for Nintendo Switch 2, like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and Metroid Prime 4, will seemingly ship with original Switch 1 cartridges.
