Roots of Pacha is basically like a Stone Age version of Stardew Valley, a co-op farming and life sim from Sofa Den. The Sun and Moon update is a big one and it's out now.

Become a professional thief and gain access to fences.

I don't think the bar has moved that much.

Another great to chance to grab some cheap highly rated games in the Fanatical Prestige Collection for April 2025 Bundle. Additionally, Fanatical also have a discount for the newly released Oblivion Remastered.

Whisky, a popular open-source front-end for Wine that made Windows gaming on Mac more accessible, has ceased development. The project's 18-year-old creator, Isaac Marovitz, announced the shutdown and encouraged users to switch to the paid CrossOver app instead. In offering the reasons for his decision, Marovitz expressed concern that Whisky was potentially harming the Wine ecosystem by competing with CrossOver, a commercial product from CodeWeavers that helps fund Wine development. "Whisky, in m...

Around 2.2 million people applied for the launch lottery. Nintendo's president, Shuntaro Furukawa, has announced that the company will not be able to satisfy demand for the Switch 2 on launch day in Japan. According to a post on social media, approximately 2.2 million people in the region had applied for the pre-order lottery system via the My Nintendo Store; a number which Furukawa states "far exceeds the number of Nintendo Switch 2 consoles that can be delivered" at launch.

After plenty of rumours, speculation and leaks, Bethesda finally announced and released the spruced up version of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion last night.

The losses just keep coming for Valve and the Steam Deck rating system, as now the Oblivion remaster has been Verified for the handheld, but its performance is far from worthy of the green tick. That's not to say the game should be deemed unplayable, but its rating is not reflective of the experience. The best handheld gaming PC is struggling to run this surprise release, and the Oblivion Remastered system requirements certainly suggested that it was going to be an uphill battle for the console....

Following reported delays over political concerns, the European Commission (EC) has penalized Apple and Meta over anti-competitive activities. The fines of €500 million and €200 million respectively (around $570 million and $228 million) are the first to be issued under Europe's new Digital Markets Act (DMA), according to the EC.  The fines were issued after what the Commission called extensive consultation with the two companies after the probes were opened in March 2024. Apple violated the DMA...

What are the best Clair Obscur Expedition 33 settings for PC and Steam Deck? This cinematic turn-based RPG is very pretty at its best, but sometimes suffers from sluggish performance if you want to maintain high image quality. This exciting new game is also a complete non-starter on Valve's handheld gaming PC. The Clair Obscur Expedition 33 system requirements aren't too intimidating, especially for an Unreal Engine 5 game, but as you'll see from our testing, the more power your gaming PC can of...

I dream of the day we hear about Starcraft 3, or a new Command and Conquer game. But while two of the genre’s fundamental linchpins remain quiet, we’ve seen a real RTS revival with the likes of newcomer Tempest Rising, a fresh Age of Empires 2 update, and the returning Commandos Origins. Stormgate could one day be at the front of that charge, but the free Steam game’s initial launch was met with a rather lukewarm reception. As it nears one year in early access, however, developer Frost Giant Stu...

I've always lamented not playing more of Overwatch 2. Blizzard's iconic hero shooter was one of the first games I really worked with when I joined this industry, and after a (very brief) stint playing semi-professionally, it feels like I should have stuck out more of the sequel. In a world bursting with ability-driven FPS games, I've struggled to find a reason to return to Overwatch 2, but Stadium might just be the push I've needed. Now live and accompanied by the highly requested hero ban syste...

You can bag yourself a brand new Lenovo Legion Go S for just $599.99 right now at Best Buy, saving you $130 on the usual price. This deal also makes it cheaper than the original Legion Go model, which is also discounted but only to $649.99. As one of the best handheld gaming PC designs, the original Legion Go was a surprise hit from Lenovo, but the reception to the Legion Go S has been mixed, largely due to the belief that it's simply priced too high. Thankfully, this Best Buy deal drops the pri...

"Unfortunately, it didn't make it". We've been following Old Skies, the time-travelling point-and-click from indie powerhouse Wadjet Eye Games (Unavowed, Primordia, The Excavation Of Hob's Barrow), for a good few years now. Initially revealed in 2022, the game was supposed to launch on Switch and PC today, however, the developer has had to make the last-minute decision to delay the Switch launch following what it describes as a "frustrating" Nintendo certification process. Wadjet Eye founder Dav...

Could *this* be the BIOS update to make Arrow Lake worth it for gaming?

Tenderfoot Tactics is a wistful and dreamlike turn-based indie that I had a real soft spot for the year it released. It's still available on Steam and well worth a look, but won't be available on the Xbox Store from today. In an act of solidarity with the BDS boycott of Microsoft following their reported connections with the Israeli military, the development team have removed their game from sale on Microsoft's storefronts.

How long is Oblivion Remastered? The surprise release of the Oblivion remake dropped this week and we're already diving into the remastered version of the beloved Elder Scrolls game. If you're a new player wondering how long it takes to beat, or if you put many, many hours into the original, here's what to expect from the Oblivion Remastered length. Elder Scrolls Oblivion is one of the best RPGs of all time, but if you're undecided about forking out the full price for the fantasy game, here's wh...

Nintendo does not have the Switch 2 stock to meet customer demand in Japan, it has admitted, in a stark warning from the company's president.

Looking to forge ahead? Check out the best Clair Obscur Expedition 33 weapons and ...

It may have now released its own remaster of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, but that doesn't mean Bethesda is planning on shutting down work on the fan-made Skyblivion mod.

Don't step on the little guy.

What are the best Oblivion Remastered mods? Closing shut the jaws of Oblivion is a herculean task. While the Virtuous team has smashed its modern recreation of Cyrodiil out of the park, there are always ways to make your journey a little easier and enhance the devs’ immaculate work a little more. It’s modding time, hero. While Bethesda says Oblivion Remastered doesn’t officially support mods, this is most likely an acknowledgement that it won’t receive a Creation Kit like its open-world cousin, ...

The European Commission has fined Apple 500 million euros ($570 million) and Meta 200 million euros ($230 million) for violating the Digital Markets Act (DMA), in the first penalties ever issued under the new EU tech regulation. Apple was penalized for restricting app developers from informing users about alternative payment options outside the App Store. The Commission said it had determined that Apple's policies prevented developers from taking full advantage of distribution channels beyond Ap...

Defendant has so far evaded complaints. Back in November 2024, we covered a case in which Nintendo of America had filed a lawsuit against an individual who had "repeatedly streamed pirated and emulated" Switch games while also using social media to promote Switch emulators to the general public. Now, after defendant Jesse Keighin – known under the online alias 'Every Game Guru' – failed to respond to Nintendo's complaints, the latter is seeking a default judgement from the court and a total of $...

Who would have suspected Bethesda to shadow drop Oblivion yesterday! Well, quite a lot of us, in fact.

There's no official mod support for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered. But when has that ever stopped modders from forcibly isekai-ing their favourite anime characters into the wrong realm? Not even 24 hours have passed since the fantasy RPG remaster was released in a "surprise" announcement by Bethesda, and the modding scene has already created 90+ mods and counting (and that's just on one popular modding website). What's most intriguing is that they've discovered some old mods for the ...

Some of these classic constellations have changed a little bit.

Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Alien Isolation, and Dead Space get all the credit, but if we’re talking about the history of horror games, it pays to remember Onimusha Warlords. It’s creepy, gory, and exploits the same fixed camera as its spiritual predecessors, but it’s also faster, more energetic, and more combat driven - its Sengoku-era castle is an imaginative far cry from the horror genre’s standard haunted towns and spaceships. Remastered and re-released back in 2018, while Capcom is focusing...

xAI has launched a new Voice Mode for its Grok chatbot, introducing a feature called Grok Vision that lets users interact with the world through their smartphone camera. Much like ChatGPT and Google Gemini, Grok can now interpret what your phone sees and respond in real time. Using Grok Vision, iPhone users can point their camera at an object and ask "What am I looking at?" – and the chatbot will reply aloud with a context-aware response. The feature is now available on the Grok iOS app, but And...

Collabora developer Faith Ekstrand has announced a nice big milestone for the open source Mesa driver NVK, the NVIDIA Vulkan driver, as it has expanded Vulkan 1.4 conformance to now include Maxwell+ (Maxwell, Pascal, and Volta GPUs).

Starfield might have launched to big numbers, but Bethesda’s journey into space left many (myself included) feeling a little dry. Despite the scope, or perhaps because of it, the interstellar adventure lost some of that slight goofiness that has been the beating heart of the Elder Scrolls for many years. Now, with the release of Oblivion Remastered, it’s back in spades, and the response has been impressive, racking up a big Steam player count alongside its arrival on PC Game Pass.

Laura Bailey, who played Abby Anderson in The Last of Us Part 2, believes HBO made the right call changing several key points in the TV adaptation.
