Electronic Arts (EA) announced that both MySims and MySims Kingdom have been upgraded with "some things we have been working on for a long time" which includes Steam Deck support for both titles.

How does the Blue Prince pump room work? A lot of the obstacles in Blue Prince can be maneuvered around, thought through, and figured out. One thing that can’t be defeated with brain power alone is a large body of water - or the lack of it, in some cases. The Blue Prince pump room is the beating heart of the estate, and you’ll need to know how it works if you want to control the flow of water through your rapidly unraveling maze. Blue Prince is a puzzle game that expands with each run, adding co...

Indiana Jones swings onto PlayStation this week with the PS5 release of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. First released in December 2024 for Windows PC and Xbox Series X, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is an immersive sim with some truly impressive cinematic bona fides. Notably, it’s also the next first-party Xbox game...

Memory's Reach is a very promising looking first-person puzzle-adventure metroidvania, and the good news is that it will have Steam Deck support at launch.

Though still notes it's committed to further $80 billion investment in AI infrastructure, saying: 'We will continue to grow strongly in all regions.'

Developer CSR-Studios are currently working on Dead Pixels II but they decided to give the original Dead Pixels from 2012 a surprise upgrade. This comes with Native Linux support and they're hoping to see it Steam Deck Verified.

NintenDOOMED? Over the decades, Nintendo has cultivated a reputation in which it seemingly strives for innovation in gaming over simple iterative upgrades. The Wii and DS were perhaps the most obvious instances of this, pushing Nintendo into the stratosphere by appealing to mass audiences beyond the usual hardcore crowd. With the Switch 2, Nintendo is seemingly playing it pretty safe, offering up a console that – mouse controls aside – more or less updates the Switch's current features with more...

Apple's rumored foldable iPhone currently in development features an under-screen camera integrated into the folding display, but the module is unlikely to include TrueDepth components that make up Face ID. That's according to Weibo-based leaker Digital Chat Station who has sources within the Chinese supply chain. On Monday, the leaker revealed the alleged screen resolutions for the 7.76-inch inner display and the 5.49-inch outer display of Apple's book-style foldable device, and they also claim...

Wonderful to see! Ubisoft announced yesterday that they've open sourced their colourblind simulation tool Chroma (UbiChroma as it's called on GitHub), after several years of internal use and development.

The developers of post-apocalyptic shooter Stalker 2: Heart Of Chornobyl have shared a roadmap for future updates, promising new guns, smarter foes, and a helpful development kit for modders. Among the changes is good news for anyone frustrated after pumping their entire backpack of bullets into 30 to 50 feral hogs. Murderised mutants will now drop loot of some kind, instead of offering no reward at all.

Dodge, duck, dip, dive, and dodge.

I'm thankfully very remote from the capital these days, but Edwin will occasionally regale the morning meeting with dark fables about how much a pint now costs in London. He'll stumble on to camera, his eyes bloodshot and breathing heavy, and we'll all know he's traded a new vital organ for a swift half. Occasionally he'll dart his head around to the sound of banging at the door then immediately dive out of the window, and we'll pray for his safe return after outrunning The Bad Teapot gang, who ...

A Minecraft Movie has now amassed more than $550m (£415m) globally since its launch less than two weeks ago.

15 years on from the release of Metro 2033, I still think with fondness and yearning of the Uboinik automatic shotgun. It’s a six chamber cylindrical affair with mouthwatering red shells that dangle before your trigger finger like pert, juicy plums. This is just to say / I have shot / the shells / that were in / the shotgun / and which / you were probably / saving / for the mutant round the corner. / Forgive me / they were murderous / so sockety / and so round. Ahem. Reloading the shotgun is an ...

A former developer who worked on the cancelled PlayStation console exclusive Concord has called out online commenters comparing it with Bungie's recently showcased Marathon.

We're expecting at least $3,500 USD for these little babies and googling the potential Aussie price made me cry like one.

You'll need to use 'Zelda Notes', though. Weapon durability has long been a 'controversial' mechanic seen in both The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. While many embraced the need to experiment in combat situations – whether it be with the Rune abilities or the environment itself – others have resented the fact that weapons would break after moderate use out in the field. Now, thanks to the new 'Zelda Notes' app that comes with the new Nintendo Switch 2 Editions of B...

The Last of Us' second season made its debut yesterday, with the first episode premiering with 5.3 million same-day US cross-platform viewers.

Without the DLC. If you're thinking about getting Street Fighter 6 on the Switch 2 at launch but don't necessarily want to commit to the entire package with both DLC updates, it seems there will be one other option. As highlighted by Nintendo, fighters will be able to choose from the 'Years 1-2' edition including all 26 fighters, or you can opt with a digital standard edition - without all the extra characters and additional content.

A collab between former XCOM devs and Respawn. Star Wars will be getting a new single-player turn-based tactics game officially titled Star Wars Zero Company. Although a Nintendo release hasn't been mentioned, there's always a chance with the Switch 2 on the horizon.

Fomantis, the sickle grass Pokémon from Alola, can be found in the wild in Pokémon Go. Yes, Fomantis can be shiny in Pokémon Go! Neither of these Pokémon are particularly meta relevant, but they do have pretty good shinies. Notably you’ll need to remember that you can only evolve Fomantis into Lurantis during the daytime,...

But Bungie will consider additional hardware in the future. Halo, Destiny and ex-Microsoft developer Bungie revealed its new extraction-shooter Marathon to the world last week and it seems there has already been some questions about the possibility of a Switch 2 release. In case you were wondering, Japanese publication Famitsu asked about the chances of this upcoming game - due out this September - coming to Nintendo's "next-generation game hardware" and it's currently something the team has no ...

To justify Medicaid cuts, the Trump administration says that "able-bodied young men" play videogames instead of working because they can go to a doctor.

Another blast from the past. This week's update for the Nintendo Music mobile app adds the original Legend of Zelda soundtrack from the NES era.

Here's the full list of tracks on offer in this latest update:

Direct from the 'Switch 2 Experience'. The Switch 2 Experience is currently underway and fans have finally had the chance to go 'hands on' in select locations around the world. Nintendo has now put together a reel highlighting some of the positive impressions so far - with most players seemingly more than happy with how the system feels and how its display looks. Here's this brief video in full.

"I sent him the video of the score, going, like, screw you. Yeah, I got it!" said Playstack's Wout van Halderen.

Fight on! Capcom's second fighting collection is just around the corner, but ahead of this it's actually announced a title update for the Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection. It will be arriving this week on 16th April 2025 and comes with a bunch of additional features - adding resolution options, offline versus, quality-of-life enhancements, and much more. You can see the full patch notes below:

Darkest Dungeon 2 was already a brutal, challenging affair, but the introduction of its Kingdoms mode took things to a new dimension. Bringing the core DD2 experience into a strategy game-esque setting, which is laid out like a tabletop board game, it’s dropped its turn-based combat and gloriously grim aesthetic into a fresh experience. Developer Red Hook promised that more content drops, known as ‘modules,’ would arrive for Kingdoms, and now it’s made good on that pledge as its second expansion...

FromSoftware's seminal action-RPG Dark Souls now has seamless co-op, courtesy of the modder behind similar co-op overhauls for Elden Ring and Dark Souls 3.

Espresso Displays makes some of our favorite portable monitors, but up until now, it felt like there was a hole in its portfolio. That's because aside from its flagship model — the $800 Espresso 17 Pro — the other members of the family are slightly more affordable fare like the $469 Espresso Touch 13 and $499 Touch 15. Today, the company is plugging that gap with the Espresso 15 Pro, which packs everything I like about its bigger sibling in a more portable package for $699 (with a stand included...

Apple is canceling popular comedy series Mythic Quest after a four season run, with the show to wrap up after a re-released season 4 finale that's coming later this week. Mythic Quest starred Rob McElhenney, Charlotte Nicdao, Danny Pudi, and David Hornsby, all of whom played characters that worked at the fictional Mythic Quest Studios creating, designing, and running a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game. The show provided a satirical and humorous look at the inner workings of video ga...

It's maybe not the best introduction to Lunacid, but Tears of the Moon is already one of my top games of 2025.

Our champion Steam spender has dropped a new car's worth of cash into Gabe's yacht fund.

Apple will not be exempt from tariffs after all, with U.S. President Donald Trump working on new semiconductor levies that will likely impact Apple devices, chips from companies like Nvidia, and other electronics. Over the weekend, the U.S. Customers and Border Protection agency shared a long list of electronic devices excluded from the current tariffs, including iPhones, iPads, Macs, the Apple Watch, and more. Apple scored a reprieve from the 145 percent tariff impacting goods imported from Chi...
