Enshrouded was one of myriad survival games that dropped in 2024, but it is, perhaps, one of the best-rated. While competitors like Nightingale and Bellwright struggled to stick the landing, Keen Games' ARPG and base-builder hybrid has just surpassed a colossal four million players and isn't slowing down any time soon. Its new update, Thralls of Twilight, is set for May, and, as the name might suggest, focuses on a series of nighttime adventures. With a shiny new weapon, fresh enemies, and a who...

What appears to be a very early Steam Deck sample has apparently been snapped on eBay for two grand, and it looks quite different from the gaming handheld we know and love today. For a start, there’s a flash of color, with some blue on a few of the buttons, rather than the all-black final version. The touchpads are also circular, rather than square, much like the ones on the original Steam controller for desktop PCs. The end result of Valve’s R&D efforts, the acclaimed Steam Deck, has gone on to...

We'll soon be playing with power. There's been a load of discourse about the price tags associated with everything concerning the Nintendo Switch 2, and rightly so.

While Blizzard has built on its longstanding ARPG legacy and Diablo 4 continues to thrive, the best true successor to D2 for my money is Path of Exile. More than a decade since Grinding Gear Games launched the free PC game, it’s now kicked off the early access journey for its own sequel. Path of Exile 2 promises to be bigger, broader, and more ambitious than its predecessor, and PCGamesN has five Steam copies of the special $100 supporte...
