The hit sci-fi litRPG series follows a contestant on an alien TV show trying to survive a dungeon filled with monsters.

I've not had a punt at Slay the Spire 2 myself yet, I've been too busy coming up with an excuse for not having played the first one, but the general read I've got on it is "it's more Slay the Spire!" This can be interpreted much the same as a vote for Bart being a vote for anarchy, as far as I can tell too. There is multiplayer now too, of course, changing things up in a notable way through this mode, but so far, so generally familiar. In a new interview with Mega Crit co-founder Casey Yano over...

"There’s just so many outside forces that are kind of forcing their hand". With the PlayStation 5's price increase going into effect today, lots of us are concerned about the rising cost of video games in general. Xbox has already increased its Series X and S prices, but the Switch 2 has remained static since its launch last year. But, in an interview on the Kit & Krysta podcast (below), a former Nintendo sales lead simply referred to as Sean believes that "unfortunately" Nintendo will eventuall...

There’s no better way to spend a long weekend than playing Subnautica for free, and deep discounts make buying it an irresistible prospect.

Months after the games hit Switch. Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 launched on the Switch in October 2025, finally freeing the critically-acclaimed sequel from its Wii-shaped prison. Unless you've had them on pre-order, you might have forgotten that a pair of accompanying amiibo figures were also announced alongside the Switch ports, and now – months after the games came out – they're finally available.

Work on MechWarrior 5 DLC will continue, but the long-term future is less certain.

Maybe Recon's tracker drone will start terrorizing someone else for once.

Publisher and game management platform indie.io just announced the pending launch of something called Indie Pass. This is a subscription service, so it's sort of like Game Pass but for indie titles. It launches on April 13 and will offer over 70 games on that date, with more coming down the line. Not a single person on this planet wants another monthly subscription to manage, but this one costs just $8. That's a pretty good deal, considering Game Pass Ultimate costs a whopping $30 per month. How...

Daffy Duck makes a comeback in a new theatrical short titled 'Daffy Season,' set to premiere at the Annecy Festival, marking the character's first theatrical appearance since 2012.

I've never really been able to wrap myself around raising sim games such as the Princess Maker series. The framing of them feels like it could quite easily teeter over the edge into something uncomfortable, and in more modern entries such as Umamusume outright parasocial (and often exploitative). But lo and behold, a game enters my consciousness that fits within this very genre that looks absurdist enough to quell some of those concerns: Tomak: Save the Earth Regeneration, a rerelease of the 25-...

Here's the first preview of Ally, a 2027 animated movie about a tiny squid with Little Mermaid dreams, from the director of Mickey 17 and Snowpiercer.

Apple has continued posting short videos featuring its new Little Finder Guy mascot on TikTok and YouTube Shorts, taking advantage of the popularity of the anthropomorphized Mac Finder icon. The short videos promote the MacBook Neo through a series of Mac tips, all of which include Little Finder Guy in cute poses. A video about journaling features the character with a book and a pen, while another about the Passwords app has Little Finder Guy with a magnifying glass. Apple has shared nine Little...

Indeed, a quick look in our backend (steady!) shows we've got... blimey... 3,415 Switch 1 & 2 game reviews live at the time of writing. We've been busy since 2017!

Russia has closed a loophole that allowed its citizens to pay for Apple digital services. "As of April 1, 2026, payment processing is no longer available for purchases made on the App Store or other Apple Media Services in Russia," the company wrote in a support document (via 9to5Mac). The change affects all Apple services. However, the company says iCloud+ subscribers' data will remain available after their subscriptions end, even after losing premium cloud storage.

In yet another year of ‘ha ha dating sim’ April Fool’s Jokes, Discord’s silly idle game Last Meadow Online is a breath of fresh, grassy air.

Haste and Content Warning are out now. Landfall Publishing gave us a surprise double-whammy yesterday, 1st April 2026, on the Switch 2 eShop when it dropped two of its games on the digital storefront. One of these we knew about, but the date was up in the air - Content Warning, which has received a release on Switch 2 and Switch 1, was announced during the August 2025 Indie World Showcase. And yesterday's eShop release was the first time we'd heard anything about the Switch version since then. I...

Arrived at a bad time.

I think it's entirely possible that I have not known true happiness since going through the childhood experience of going to your local Easter egg hunt, and finding a facsimile of an egg you can later trade in for the chocolate variety hidden in the plainest of views (but you're five, so you proudly show it to your half-interested parents none the wiser). I miss the thrill of the egg hunt. So lucky me, all I have to do is play Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor later this month, as the Vampire Survivo...

The latest Steam hardware survey cites Linux as accounting for over 5% of the install base. That's not a lot, and comes with the caveat of Valve's info gathering not being bulletproof, but it ia a good chunk higher than the OS's mark for the first two months of 2026.

The Destiny-like was named for its "retention challenges" in a recent presentation.
