To be fair, I also rapidly lose interest in things once I've already been paid for them.

A royal mess? The recent Xbox showcase contained not one, but two trailers for the Persona franchise. We already knew about Persona 4 Revival, but the new glimpse showcased some proper gameplay for the first time along with confirmation that it will launch on 18th February 2027. Meanwhile, the much-rumoured (and leaked) Persona 6 was also officially revealed with little more than a logo and a few vague, abstract clips. It wasn't much, but it was enough for fans who have been waiting for years fo...

Last week, Amazon gaming general manager Jeff Gattis rather put the cat amongst the pigeons when talking about James Bond's future in games now IO Interactive's 007 First Light is out. He was cited by Polygon as having said that, since they'll be happening post-Amazon's acquisition of the full Bond rights, any follow-up would be "done by MGM and, theoretically, by Amazon Game Studios". When asked about Gattis' comments, Amazon were quick to declare that it's "still too early to discuss future pr...

1666 Amsterdam’s Steam demo - or prologue - isn’t bad at all; it’s an introduction to one of the most interesting games I’ve seen in years.

Ahead of the WWDC 2026 keynote at 10 a.m. Pacific Time today, Apple CEO Tim Cook has shared a short video in which country singer Lainey Wilson, actress Rhea Seehorn, DJ and producer Zedd, and other celebrities say "good morning" in various ways. "I think I'll say it the way I always say it," concludes Cook. Apple's hardware engineering chief John Ternus becomes CEO on September 1, so this WWDC will likely be Cook's final event running the company. pic.twitter.com/iVv4DEka​z8— Tim Cook (@tim_cook...

It sounds like the upcoming Marvel Blade game from Deathloop developer Arkane Lyon could be no more. Marvel's Blade was unveiled during The Game Awards 2023, and when it was said this would be an original story for the half-human, half-vampire, as he takes on "a supernatural emergency" in the streets of Paris. That emergency is, of course, vampires.

The Adult Swim series combines silly personal drama with apocalyptic action.

Fight and flight. Reading the description for Kabuto Park, I imagined it would be like Animal Crossing’s Bug-Off. But this quick, cosy beetle-collecting game from French developer Doot Tiny Games presents a concept that’s closer to another Nintendo series: Pokémon. The story is pretty light. Your character, Hana, visits the eponymous park for a month to catch bugs and catch up with friends. It’s played through menus, where you select areas rather than explore them – you’ll unlock four throughout...

Thanks, Guild Wars 3.

Wolfing it down.

Retro-focused game sellers GOG have apologised after sending out a newsletter featuring runes which have long served as Nazi symbols. The symbols appeared in the subject for an email promoting The End of the Sun, an adventure game about a Slavic fire mage who also dabbles in time manipulation.

Oh wow - we're getting a real treat now. Atari / Nightdive Studios announced Thief: The Dark Project Remastered bringing the classic up to modern standards

Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo says the real test of today's WWDC keynote is whether Apple can deliver better AI experiences than Google using the same Gemini models. Apple is using Google's Gemini to underpin the revamped version of Siri and new Apple Intelligence features. The key takeaway from WWDC, Kuo argues in a new post on X, will not be the short-term market reaction after the event. It will be whether Apple, using the same Gemini models, can deliver better AI applications, agentic workflows...

Deconstructeam, of Many Nights a Whisper and The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood, say their newest game Virtue and a Sledgehammer is about "feeling like you no longer belong in the place you grew up." Judging from the newly released demo, it’s also about catharsis. Chunky, crumbly, crushing catharsis, injected through the handle of misappropriated demolition equipment.

The end is in sight… Race ya there!

Monster Hunter Wilds' much-anticipated expansion-sized DLC, titled Ascendance, is coming next year. But with lots of performance woes and a long wait for meaty endgame battles, we aren't surprised the game always struggled to live up to the heights of Monster Hunter: World, a game which has been blessed with enduring popularity. Now, Capcom has revealed 2018's instalment has crossed an important milestone.

Don't let the idea of playing a MOBA frighten you away.

Stacked showcases. The big weekend of Summer Game Fest 2026 is behind us, and it sure was a stacked one. While showcases and streams were gradually trickling out over the last week, this weekend was when most of the biggies came out to play, many of which came loaded with their fair share of Switch news.

As promised, Gears of War: E-Day developer The Coalition followed up the Xbox Games Showcase with a presentation entirely dedicated to the upcoming third-person shooter. The nearly 28-minute-long Direct expanded on the gameplay demo we saw at the Showcase, revealing more details about the core design philosophy, as well as the modes we can expect at launch.

Cast your minds back to last month, and you will recall a rather bizarre video featuring Death Stranding creator Hideo Kojima travelling through space and crashing on a hostile planet. This wasn't a promotion for a new game, rather it was a collaboration with filmmaker Nicolas Winding Refn and fashion house Prada for an art installation. Oh, the short film - known as Satellites II - was made with the help of AI tools, which you won't be surprised to hear ruffled more than a few feathers.

Seldom has the phrase "balance your party" carved deeper clawmarks into my soul than when playing Ascenders: Beyond the Peak, a turn-based cosmic horror RPG in which you guide groups of alpinists up cursed mountains in search of terrible artefacts. Each level is a grid-based cliff face made up of slippery ledges, crumbling overhangs, unearthly varmints such as giant spiders, and resource caches such as the rucksacks of mountaineers who came before.

"We did our best we could in delivering this trailer for this moment."

Thief in the night. Nightdive Studios has shown off its latest upcoming remaster, and it's a doozy. Thief: The Dark Project, originally released back in 1998 from Looking Glass Studios and Eidos Interactive, is making a comeback later this year on Switch and Switch 2. Visuals, textures, animations, and more have all been given some TLC for the new release, and those on Switch can also rest easy in the knowledge that the upgrade to Switch 2 will be completely free. We don't have word on exactly w...
