There were two questions I was looking to answer as I fired up MLB The Show 26. First, how much does the game cater to a baseball newbie like me? Second, will it keep me hooked enough to keep playing after my first few games? I think it's important to share some personal context. I have very limited experience with baseball. I have been to one MLB game, which was on my first visit to Canada as a teen. The lead-off Toronto Blue Jays hitter scored a home run on his first at-bat. Fireworks went off...

I know what you’re thinking: “Isn’t Fender a guitar company?” It sure is, and has been one of the most iconic names in guitars and amplifiers since 1946. So what is the company doing making headphones and speakers? Well, it isn’t, exactly. Like Zound Industries used to do with Marshall (before buying the amp business), another company is licensing the Fender name for its consumer audio products. Fender Audio, the brand that’s on the headphones I’m reviewing, is owned by the Fender Corporation, b...

The post Forza Horizon 6’s New Rush Events Mix Showcase-Style Spectacle With a More Replayable Hook | IGN First appeared first on Xbox Wire.

I'm sure it's just a coincidence, but Nintendo's decision to release a demo for its upcoming Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream on the 15th anniversary of the 3DS feels entirely fitting. Tomodachi Life is probably the 3DS game I think about most; not so much in the fond memory sense, but more like a particularly vivid cheese dream. On paper, Tomodachi Life is something like Animal Crossing mixed with The Sims, perhaps with a bit of Tamagotchi thrown in. But that doesn't really convey just how wond...

Teyon and Nacon have revealed Hunter: The Reckoning – Deathwish, a new "semi open world" first-person single-player RPG set in the World of Darkness table-top universe. Where stablemate series Vampire: The Masquerade is about a secret society of bloodsuckers, Hunter is about the humans who stalk and kill those bloodsuckers together with werewolves, ghouls and, well, anything remotely monstrous or supernatural.

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio has revealed more details about its upcoming title, Stranger Than Heaven, at the Xbox Partner Preview stream. While previous teasers showed that it was going to be set in the 1910s and 1940s, it turns out its gameplay will span five different time periods: 1915, 1929, 1943, 1951 and 1965. The game’s events will also take place in five different cities. Ryu Ga Gotoku has yet to reveal what the locations will be based on, but the setting for 1965 seems to be Kamurocho. That’s ...

Rage against the machine.

The new Slay the Spire 2 patch notes include the return of Prepared, Regent buffs, another Doormaker rework, and relic rarity changes.

X-Men is full of iconic dialogue, but there’s one line that defines the 2000 superhero movie above all others: What would you prefer, yellow spandex?

Snap. Up until now, that's been the sort of sound you only hear in Resident Evil Requiem when a spooky monster may or may not be sneaking up on you. Thanks to a new patch from Capcom, though, it could now also signify that you've just taken a cute photo of the spooky monster about to ruin Grace or Leon's day.

Next year's regular iPhone 18 will feature the smaller Dynamic Island rumored to be coming to the iPhone 18 Pro models this September, according to Chinese leaker Ice Universe, who has a decent track record for leaks. iPhone 18 Pro with a smaller Dynamic Island (mockup via Ice Universe) In a new post on Weibo, the leaker said the smaller Dynamic Island will be adopted across the full iPhone 18 series, while the bezels on the next-generation devices will remain identical to those on the iPhone 17...

The Minirig Finite MR-79 brings a physical vapor deposition gold-plated finish to the fantastic Minirig 4, which is my go-to speaker for travel.

Ballerina streams on HBO Max starting today, and the overlooked John Wick spinoff is miles better than its box office numbers would have you think.

You're a poet, you don't know it. If there's one series we'd love to see make an appearance on the Switch 2, then it's Silent Hill. Both Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill f have been very well received on other platforms, and with Resident Evil Requiem and Fatal Frame II demonstrating that horror games have a place on Nintendo's new console, then we've got our fingers crossed for some more spooky thrills in the future. Alas, there's no sign of any Silent Hill project for the Switch 2 just yet, so fo...

As hinted at by previous peeks at it, which were set in 1915 and 1943, Like A Dragon devs RGG Studio are jumping around in time with their upcoming historical brawler Stranger than Heaven. They've confirmed via a fresh trailer that it's set in five different decades and, arguably more surprisingly, five different Japanese cities.

Housemarque's upcoming sci-fi roguelike shooter Saros has seemingly been made substantially easier than the developer's previous release Returnal, thanks to the inclusion of auto saves from the jump as well as multiple save slots. This, it seems, was included due to player feedback to Returnal.

Owlcat has confirmed it is using generative AI for prototyping and placeholders in The Expanse Osiris Reborn, despite previous backlash.

It's not quite the classic real Alien series but I'll take it. Rebellion just revealed the off-world first-person action horror Alien Deathstorm

The idea of porting Crimson Desert over to Switch 2 is currently being discussed by Pearl Abyss, which while I am no tech expert, sounds pretty ambitious to me.

Alien Deathstorm is the new sci-fi FPS from Rebellion, developers of skull-popping shooter series Sniper Elite and the recent, Very English survival game Atomfall. What is Alien Deathstorm about? Why, it's a visual novel about a neurodivergent person growing up in the big city HOHO OF COURSE NOT, it's a game about aliens in which there is a storm that will make you dead, set in another collapsing extra-terrestrial colony full of dependably phat, lived-in 1980s technology. Here's the announcement...

Hytale has a big update 4 now available, and it's ridiculously big with absolutely loads of new content available including over 500 new blocks

Amazon's live-action God of War series has found its Freya.

As promised, the powers that be at Capcom have released an update for Resident Evil Requiem, which along with other fixes and such also adds the much-requested photo mode, so you can really capture all those nasties in their bloody glory (or, you could just take pics of Leon and Grace, your call).

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Cost of Hope is the first major expansion revealed for Heart of Chornobyl and it's set to arrive this Summer

The court has granted Anthropic’s request for a preliminary injunction, preventing the government from banning its products for federal use and from formally labeling it as a “supply chain risk,” at least for now. If you’ll recall, things turned sour between the company and the Trump administration when Anthropic refused to change the terms of its contract that would allow the government to use its technology for mass surveillance and the development of autonomous weapons. In response to Anthrop...

Serious Sam: Shatterverse is a new entry into the classic shooter franchise and this one is rather different to all the rest with the focus on co-op madness

Coming in a new update. Hades II developer Supergiant Games yesterday announced it would be bringing the Princess of the Underworld to Xbox and PlayStation platforms on 14th April 2026. If you're wondering how this is relevant to Nintendo, well, according to the team, there'll be an update released for all platforms on the same day. As revealed on the official company blog, if you already have a copy of the game, you can expect this patch to arrive on the "same day". While no patch notes have be...

But there are things it would have to "give up". The new open-world action-adventure Crimson Desert launched last week, and although it's filled with technical issues on platforms such as the PlayStation 5, South Korean publisher and developer Pearl Abyss isn't ruling out a Switch 2 port. In fact, according to the company's CEO Heo Jin-Young, the team has just begun research and development to investigate a Nintendo version of this ambitious title. Here's what he had to say during a recent share...

Which is why I'm looming over the genre's coffin with a stake and hammer.
