Ancient version of GTA 4 with a cut zombie mode, ferry assets and DJ lines reportedly found at car boot sale

An ancient, work-in-progress version of Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto IV has reportedly been discovered on an Xbox 360 development kit at a car boot sale, somewhere up Edinburgh way. Dating back to November 2007, about six months before the open world game's launch, it's said to contain a cut model for a Liberty City river ferry that once featured in a trailer. While we only have the buyer's word that the development hardware - "a phat white Xbox 360 XDK with a Rockstar North label on it" - is leg...

Turns out Crimson Desert's lead voice actor was as confused by the game's disjointed story as some players

It's safe to say Crimson Desert is a success with 3 million copies sold (so far) and substantial patches coming in hot. But it's hard to fix a narrative and quest structure that was described as "fatally undercooked" by Lewis Gordon in Eurogamer's own review. Now, we've learned the voice behind "stoic" protagonist Kliff, Alec Newman (Cyberpunk 2077), was as confused by its nature as many players.

Screamer’s multiplayer chases unleash the racer’s full chaotic potential, trapping you inside a relentlessly boosty, bashy, and boomy washing machine

When James and I published our impressions of anime racer Screamer the other week, I mentioned I was keen to give its online races a go once it’d pulled out of the garage. Would the sights and sounds of sliding around its twisty tracks and slamming into real people make for as much fun as I’d had racing the computer in its story mode?

Much of the time, using social media is like fondling a wasp's nest, but sometimes, sometimes, social media is Nice. For example, Firaxis narrative director Cat Manning recently started a Bluesky thread "of small practical pieces of advice developers just starting out or unfamiliar with a genre might not know". The replies and quote-posts include thoughts from people with credits on fairly big games. Inevitably, they run the gamut of approachability. At one end of the spectrum, you have Apex Leg...

"If I release something official, I want it to match my vision" - Undertale and Deltarune creator Toby Fox explains why no translations other than Japanese have happened

It's not an exaggeration to say Undertale is one of the most influential indie games ever made, and last year's Deltarune quickly became a huge success for developer Toby Fox, too. There's one small problem that's slowly become bigger than anyone anticipated, though: to this date, both RPGs are still missing localization beyond Japanese.

Kena: Bridge of Spirits' Switch 2 port is fine, but doesn't offer an upgrade over handheld PC or last-gen experiences

After a frustrating drought of native Nintendo Switch 2 ports (with some special exceptions) during the console's first six months, reportedly due to the lack of development kits going out to developers, more studios have begun to release their darlings on the hybrid console recently. It came as no surprise, then, to hear the charming and well-crafted Kena: Bridge of Spirits was making the jump to Switch 2 on 26th March.
