The long-running Metal Gear in Concert series will finally get a UK premiere on 1st November 2025, at London's Royal Albert Hall.

Between realistic milsim shooters and grounded, slow-pace stealth hits, there is a largely uncharted type of gameplay. Ghost Recon, Deus Ex, Thief, Splinter Cell - a lot have tried to find it, and some have gotten closer than others, but no one game has truly managed to strike the balance between sneaking and outright action. They don’t flow into one another. In almost every stealth game, even those with solid gunplay mechanics, if you get spotted, it feels like a failure; likewise, if you go lo...

Welcome–or welcome back–to Days Gone,  Bend Studio’s sprawling open-world adventure-survival epic. In this PlayStation 5 remaster launching April 25, you’ll once again be able to enjoy Deacon St. John’s journey across the gorgeous natural beauty of the Oregon wilderness–provided you can deal with the mind-boggling amount of mutant Freaker monstrosities that want to shred you...

Chipolo has launched a new Bluetooth tracker that works with both Apple Find My and Google Find My Device networks. The Chipolo Pop comes in the same form factor and colors as the Chipolo One, which is one of Engadget's best Bluetooth trackers for 2025. But unlike One that only works with the Chipolo app, the company's Spot line that only works with Apple Find My and its Point-branded trackers that only work with Google's network, Pop is compatible with all three.  The Chipolo Pop has a range of...

More rabbit than Sainsbury′s. We always find it a bit trite to start a review with comparisons, but humour us. Rusty Rabbit is a bit like SteamWorld Dig 2 mixed with Sylvanian Families. Or, it’s somewhere between Drill Dozer and Star Fox. Umm, Dig Dug mixed with Conker’s Bad Fur Day? We might be losing steam here… From developer SoFun, Rusty Rabbit is an action and exploration game where you control Stamp, a grumpy, middle-aged rabbit that collects junk for a living in his mech, the Junkster. He...

Black Mirror can sometimes be a bit of a mindfuck, but Issa Rae felt clear on one thing when she signed up: Her episode reminded her of “San Junipero.” “Hotel Reverie” shares a lot of connective tissue with episodes of Black Mirror’s past, but the queer love story taking place entirely in a virtual world...

When speaking to Indiana Jones and the Great Circle design director Jens Andersson last year, I wondered aloud whether his game might be an immersive sim. He bristled slightly at the suggestion, and I completely understand why. The term coined by Looking Glass, creators of System Shock and Thief, speaks of player-led possibilities - the freedom to approach dangerous scenarios your own way, and to define your own moral compass. But it’s also limiting.

Update: In my handsome and cool haste, I neglected to look into this properly. It turns out the writers' previous work has been ported to the new site. My apologies to GAMURS in this specific instance. Still, point stands!

Someone put me in charge of videogames. I'll sort this right out.

Blue Prince, the genre-bending roguelike puzzle adventure from Dogubomb, may have only been released on Steam on Thursday, April 10, but it already boasts the highest average review score for any new PC game in 2025. If you've not played it yet, Fanatical is offering the perfect opportunity, knocking 15% off the game's standard price. If that's not enough of a saving for you, you can get a further 8% off with an exclusive discount code – saving you 22% off altogether.

Get ready for something curious.

Money on my mine 'n' craftin' mind.

Aquapark Tycoon from Boxelware, who previously made the space sim Avorion, is an upcoming water theme park building game and a new trailer is out now.

For years now I have watched Haenir's putrid action-horror game Blight: Survival like a miasmatic knight errant squinting through the bushes at a peasant-shaped mushroom. I reached out to the devs for an interview a while ago, and received no reply. I wasn't hugely surprised by their silence: Blight began life as a two-person project, and is a long way from release. Still, there's been some ominous movement of late: the developers have unveiled a new biome and enemies, and are now fielding appli...

Just before the weekend, the US Customs and Border Protection published a list of products excluded from Trump’s tariffs, including smartphones, PCs, memory chips and let’s say 80 percent of everything we write about at Engadget. However, that’s more because they’ll be siloed into a specific product category. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said in an interview on Sunday: “Those products are going to be part of the semiconductor sectoral tariffs, which are coming.” The new exclusions would exe...

That key art is unsettling, though. Devolver Digital is launching a new 2D precision platformer on 1st May 2025 for the Nintendo Switch, and you can try it out now via a free eShop demo. Developed by DeadToast Entertainment (My Friend Pedro), Shotgun Cop Man ties all traversal and combat to your guns, with each shot propelling you in your desired direction. You'll need to combine your shots to ensure you're taking down your enemies while also avoiding deadly obstacles at the same time.

Taiwan's China Airlines now supports Apple's iPhone feature that makes it easier to share the location of AirTag-equipped baggage at airports, according to local media. With iOS 18.2, Apple introduced a new Find My feature that lets you temporarily share the location of an AirTag-equipped item – such as a bag – with others, including participating airline staff, to help track it if it's lost or delayed. Users running iOS 18.2, iPadOS 18.2, or macOS Sequoia 15.2 and later can generate a "Share It...

Ubisoft has made its colourblind simulation tool available for public use, in a move to improve accessibility efforts.

Meet the Be Quiet! Dark Mount and Light Mount. After years of concentrating on producing silence-focused cases, coolers, and power supplies for PCs, Be Quiet! has jumped into the world of PC peripherals, and in a big way. It's today launching two gaming keyboards, one of which is a refresh of my long-time personal favorite keyboard, the Mountain Everest. The Dark Mount is the keyboard in question and its predecessor remains one of the best gaming keyboard options we've ever tested. Its secret sa...

The hardware team agrees these quiet keebs are worth shouting about.

Nintendo celebrated Super Mario Bros.’ 35th anniversary with appropriate levels of enthusiasm. The company released a collection of 3D Super Mario games from multiple console generations, new hardware in the form of a Game & Watch handheld that played the original Super Mario Bros., and even a battle royale version of the 8-bit NES classic....

Minecraft Legends is caught between two warring sensibilities. A spinoff of Mojang and Microsoft’s epochal building game, at its core, it needs to be accessible, simple, and suitable for all ages. But it’s also an RTS - mechanically, it’s drawing on Starcraft, Command and Conquer, and other genre monoliths, games where players expect deep systems and complexity. In trying to unify the essence of Minecraft - fun, light, eminently playable - with the conventions of more involved strategy games, Le...

The future of Linux distributions in many ways seems like immutable may be a good path, and now the Manjaro team want you to test out their own version of it with Manjaro Summit.

Horror is escaping a melted flesh abomination, but to pull off true terror, you need to have a gleefully murderous human get right up in my face and grin about whatever nasty human stuff they're planning to get up to. Enter Agni: Village Of Calamity, an Indonesian survival horror that looks interesting for its early Resident Evil influences, but has gotten stuck in my head for specifically evoking Resident Evil 7's intimate human threat. Here's a trailer.

Remember Skull and Bones, Ubisoft's beleaguered pirate adventure? Having been announced in 2017, the game finally released in February of last year after numerous delays and setbacks. However, Skull and Bones failed to make positive waves on its debut, with players calling out the underwhelming gameplay and poorly designed end game, among other gripes.

It's like fight club but with chickens and popcorn.

Nintendo positioning Switch 2 as simply a bigger and better follow-up to Switch 1 is damaging to the company's brand identity.

Apple's upcoming foldable iPhone (aka "iPhone Fold") will use OLED panels exclusively supplied by Samsung Display, reports Business Korea. Apple's decision to rely exclusively on Samsung Display is noteworthy, as it marks a departure from Apple's usual strategy of sourcing components from multiple suppliers to reduce costs and ensure consistent quality. Apple's decision to use Samsung as the sole supplier of the OLED panels, leaving out LG Display and China's BOE, was reportedly down to Samsung'...

Beyond seamless. After many, many years of waiting, we finally have a little more information about Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. Samus' next hotly-anticipated adventure will arrive on both Switch and Switch 2 at some point this year, the latter version boasting improved visuals and access to the upcoming console's Mouse Mode for precise aiming. At the recent Switch 2 hands-on event in London, we were keen to put this new control scheme to the test, namely, working out how easy it is to transition fr...

Bosorka is an action roguelike where a young witch saves the world from insidious and cruel demons. To celebrate the first anniversary, the developer has released a Native Linux version.

Space Marine 2's latest update is the perfect time to step into the gigantic, curb-stomping shoes of an Astartes. There's a brand new co-op mission, the menacing Tyranid boss, Trygon, and more ways than ever to suit up and take on the hordes. Saber Interactive has been expanding SM2 for some time now, and update 7 is the latest in a long line of phenomenal overhauls taking it from strength to strength.

The Silver Lake investment firm portfolio companies deliver $252 billion of revenue annually.
