That's if tariffs don't get in the way...

The free to play online co-op dungeon crawler Never Split the Party from Legend Studio just had a massive update to celebrate one million downloads. Quite a surprise, since the last update to the game was back in 2022.

"We have a long, long catalogue". We'll admit it, we all thought a new 3D Mario game would be the star of the show in Nintendo's Switch 2 reveal. Donkey Kong Bananza took that spot instead, but that's not to say that Nintendo hasn't been cooking something up for its prized plumber. At least, that's what Nintendo of America's Doug Bowser seems to be teasing. The NoA president has been in and out of interviews since the upcoming console's announcement, and in a recent conversation with CNN, he mad...

We're finally getting close to Demonschool actually releasing, with it now having a Q3 2025 release window so it will be here before the end of September.

The Razer Basilisk V3 Pro 35K is a gaming mouse that attempts to do it all. It offers wired, wireless, and Bluetooth connections. It has a scroll wheel that can spin freely for super-quick scrolling or go clicky with the touch of a button - it can even tilt left and right too. A side button gets you an instant low-DPI sniper mode, and you can even add wireless charging as well. For those up on their gaming mice, you might be thinking this sounds an awful lot like the Logitech G502 X Plus, and yo...

Amongst other games, of course. Palworld dev Pocketpair is currently locked in a legal battle with Nintendo and The Pokémon Company over alleged patent infringement. Now, as detailed by Games Fray (thanks, VGC), we have a vague idea of how Pocketpair might be looking to present its defence. In short, Pocketpair argues that Nintendo's patents-in-suit shouldn't have been granted in the first place, referencing numerous games that it says utilised key mechanics long before Nintendo claimed to have ...

Developer ustwo games just upgraded both Monument Valley: Panoramic Edition and Monument Valley 2: Panoramic Edition with full controller support which should get them bumped up to Steam Deck Verified status.

id Software's Doom reboot may not have been big on story, but Doom: The Dark Ages is going all out to be cinematic, and its new story trailer crams in a host of plot points. Hardcore fans will be happy to hear that the trailer confirms everyone is afraid of the Doom Slayer.

Great Scott, this battery is going to be heavy.

"The robots are running very well, very stable … I feel I’m witnessing the evolution of robots and AI."

When you think of Runescape you probably think of several things: quaint, pixel graphics, wise old men, a lot of woodcutting, and some extraordinarily large rats. But you also think of community; a game built by devs in direct response to players. Having attended RuneFest a couple of months ago, the passion Jagex has for its game is very much mirrored by its playerbase - the MMORPG feels, in many ways, like a reciprocal exchange of ideas. Runescape Dragonwilds' creative director Rich 'Mod Rook' ...

Over 20 years ago, SNK blew the world away with Garou: Mark of the Wolves. Since then, Fatal Fury has become a relic of the past, loved only by those with wrinkles on their face and a place for gaming classics in their hearts. That flickering ember remains dormant no longer with Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, a grand resurgence with more money thrown at it than the next unsustainable AI start-up. But does City of the Wolves have what it takes to carve a home for itself in a market dominated by ...

Spoilers follow for The Last of Us season two, episodes one and two HBO’s The Last of Us showed viewers in season one that it would lean heavily on the source video games for major plot points and general direction of the season while expanding on the universe, and season two has followed that to the most extreme end possible. Episode two sees Tommy and Maria lead the town of Jackson Hole against a massive wave of Infected, the likes of which we haven’t seen in the show (or video games) yet. Thi...

After 10 episodes, HBO’s The Last of Us has finally gotten to the issue being talked around since the show first dropped: What happens between Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Abby (Kaitlyn Dever).
