As Grinding Gear Games buffs its unforgiving loot drops in Path of Exile 2, fellow ARPG No Rest for the Wicked is getting similar treatment from developer Moon Studios. Several months in the making, new NRFTW update The Breach introduces more zones, weapon types, boss fights, and endgame systems to the soulslike spin on Diablo. However, it might have been a little too vicious - with the arrival of The Breach, the game’s recent Steam reviews have fallen dramatically to just 43% positive. In an at...

Apple's rumored iPhone 17 Air model will have "worse" battery life compared to previous iPhone models, according to a paywalled The Information report. In internal testing, Apple determined that the percentage of users who will be able to use the iPhone 17 Air for a full day without needing to recharge the device will be between 60% and 70%, according to the report. For other iPhone models, the report said that metric is apparently between 80% and 90%. The reduced battery life is due in part to ...

MiHoYo has just dropped a new teaser giving us our first peek at the "brand new" Honkai game on the way.

In a few months, you'll no longer be able to rent a Nintendo 3DS to guide you around the Louvre and tell you about the pieces exhibited in it. The website Nintendo Everything has spotted a notice in Louvre's official website, stating that the Nintendo 3DS console audio guides "will go out of operation in September 2025." It also stated that the 3DS will be replaced by a new system, but the museum has yet to reveal more details about it. Is the Louvre swapping the 3DS for the Switch or a more tra...

If the latest expansion to Risk of Rain 2 left you a little cold, the Vellum 1.0 launch might be just what you were looking for. The third-person action roguelike boasts a distinctive style, allowing you to combine all manner of ink-driven magical abilities to battle through hordes of dangerous beasties. Vellum has proven itself a winner during early access, earning itself a 90% Steam rating from players, and its low price point makes it easier to convince your friends to join you in giving it a...

Epic Games has "exciting updates" for game makers, confirming the storefront will no longer take a share of revenue up to the first $1,000,000 profit a game makes.

I cannot stop myself clicking play on Glass Cannon, it's a properly great and unique shoot 'em up experience that twists the genre in a fun way that's too easy to get obsessed with.

Our picks for the top Switch 1 eShop games of April. Ready for better, brighter weather (at least in the northern hemisphere) and eShop Selects? Us too! Admittedly, our eyes are firmly set on the near future. The Nintendo Switch 2 is just over a month away, and that means a whole slew of big, new games are waiting for us. It's safe to say, things are busy here.

There's a major shakeup for the App Store in the U.S. this week, with Epic Games winning a major victory that is forcing Apple to make immediate changes in how it works with developers seeking to offer alternative methods for purchasing in-app content and subscriptions.

Big trouble at the big top.

Hollow Knight seriously shifted my perspective on giving games a proper chance. Uncertain about the cult-classic Metroidvania despite its reputation, it took much egging on from friends and two separate attempts for me to stick with it, only for it to become one of my favorite games of all time. Of course, I’m now left waiting for news of Hollow Knight Silksong just like everyone else. But, just as it feels more real than ever before, another contender to the throne has caught my eye. Little Mag...

I've written for seven years about just how much I enjoy typing and gaming on mechanical keyboards, so it's perhaps not surprising that I tend to ask a lot of companies to send over their latest and greatest options. Today I'm rounding up 10 keyboards that I've tested this week (!), from feature-focused gaming boards to more design-oriented mechanicals for typists.

The Wine 10.7 development release is out now, and in the highlights they noted an interesting sounding performance improvement for select games.

A new Diablo 4 hotfix is here, as Blizzard dramatically adjusts the reputation gains on offer in its latest update. Diablo 4 Season 8 sees the return of Belial, the Lord of Lies, with his vicious apparitions popping up all across Sanctuary. On the player’s side, it grants us access to some of the powers employed by the various big, bad bosses to use as part of our builds. Also core to the season is the regular reputation rewards track, and now a fresh patch has made it vastly quicker to get to t...

Morrowind finally living up to its name, one expansion at a time.

The original Endzone is a certified hidden gem. A spiritual mix of Fallout, Cities Skylines, and Luke Hodorowicz’s beloved Banished, it puts you in charge of a fledgling survivalist settlement, in the aftermath of the end of the world. Deep systems; gorgeous, steampunk-inflected visuals; a subtle mix of relaxing city builders and high-intensity strategy games - Endzone has deservedly found a place in the canon of cult PC hits. The sequel, however, has struggled. Its foundations are strong. The u...

Invaders must die. We're another week closer to the Switch 2, folks! We can't almost taste the new cartridges... (bleugh!) Anyway, let's see what's been going on this week. First up, we had the big 20.0.0 update on Switch, which added both Virtual Game Cards and GameShare, along with a few other minor bits and bobs. On a similar topic, it seems more and more publishers are embracing Game-Key Cards for Switch 2, and Nightdive's own CEO reckons that this is "disheartening".

Hello and welcome back to our regular feature where we write a little bit about some of the games we've been playing. This week Bertie triumphs, but then feels slightly empty because of it; Tom O reorganises his house and it reminds him of Resident Evil; and Victoria finds herself entranced by the music in South of Midnight.

What series would you like to see next-gen? Ubisoft recently confirmed it would be supporting the Switch 2 with Star Wars Outlaws, and this was followed by a rating for Assassin's Creed Shadows. Now, the third-party publisher looks like it could be teasing a few other games on its social media pages. Ubisoft Brazil recently shared a post asking its followers what Ubisoft titles they would like to play on the Nintendo Switch 2.

Download it today. Konami Suikoden I & II HD Remaster has been out since March now, and it's overall it's gone down pretty well. If you're still making your way through the remasters of these epic JRPGs, or want an excuse to revisit them, Konami has now rolled out Version 1.0.3 of the game. This patch focuses on multiple bug fixes for both games and also addresses some "other minor issues".

Error Code: 2206-1015 has been resolved. In case you missed it, Nintendo has rolled out a new update, and no - we're not talking about the big 20.0.0 update, this is a completely new patch officially bumping the firmware up to Version 20.0.1. This latest update resolves Error Code: 2206-1015, which Nintendo was already "investigating" after multiple player reports. It seems this issue was popping up when users installed the previous update and then restarted the system.

Is Clair Obscur Expedition 33 the most unexpected surprise of the year so far? Blue Prince is certainly a contender, but hasn’t quite hit the dizzying sales and player count heights. Conversely, something like Schedule 1 has exploded out of nowhere, but isn’t going to be scooping up end-of-year awards. When it comes to being the complete surprise package, I think Expedition 33 takes it. The game is so popular that on Steam, despite it being a fresh IP and a debut game from a small studio, it has...

Thunderbolts* is the final film of Marvel’s Phase 5, which was more or less marked by insecurity. Starting with 2023’s Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, and snaking around some of the roughest news cycles for the Cinematic Universe, Phase 5 is now giving way to a (seemingly) more confidently laid-out Phase 6.  Which means Thunderbolts*’...

We've still got months to go before the new iPhone 17 models come out, but a combination of dummy models and leaks have given us some insight into what we can expect in terms of camera changes. Apple is adding new camera features, and changing the design of the camera bump for some models. You might be skeptical of dummy models, but over the years, they've proven to be a highly accurate reflection of Apple's design changes. It's case makers who suss out the info used for these dummy models, beca...

While Fallout is Bethesda’s baby these days, it wasn’t the original creator of the iconic RPG series. That was Interplay, the company that infamously told departing employees to destroy any remnants of work they had on its games. That’s led to a years-long mystery around whether the original source code for Fallout 1 and Fallout 2 actually survived, with the series’ original producer Tim Cain claiming recently shining a light on Interplay’s anti-preservation tactics. However, one of the company’...

Luke Dale, the voice of Hans Capon, is thrilled that GTA 6 won't be out until 2026, and for a pretty good reason.

Google's annual I/O developer conference is coming on May 20, and for the first time, there's two major events you'll want to watch to stay on top of all the updates the company's making to its software platforms.
