macOS 27 Golden Gate removes AFP support, ending Time Machine compatibility with Time Capsule after nearly two decades, but a community project from a Microsoft engineer offers a potential workaround for owners not yet ready to move on.

Apple officially ended development on the entire AirPort line in April ...

Ray tracing and faster load-times be damned: the DualSense controller is the PS5's most impressive innovation. And while the controller does work on PC, Sony only supports its feature package when connected using a cable.

Last week, Apple introduced a new discovery feature for the App Store called Personalized Collections, or app recommendations based on individual interests and behavior. Apple pitched the announcement as another way for developers to have their app discovered, but there has already been some pushback from a privacy perspective. App Store user analytics collected by Apple (Image: Mysk) The new tailored recommendations can appear on the Apps, Games, and Search tabs, and evolve over time based on a...

Housemarque is a team with a long history of creating games for a certain type of audience. The Finnish studio, which started out making smaller, arcadey titles, has grown to be among the most prestigious PlayStation first-party studios. But despite the expanding scope of its games, its philosophy about its niche genre never changed.

Squeamish sorts can rest assured that Death Stranding's live-action movie adaptation won't have the same level of violence as director Michael Sarnoski's previous films, but it will, he says, still honour the video game's "bleak and barren post-apocalyptic environment".

Oh, right, of course that's exactly what he has in mind. Use AI, got it.

Disappointment ripples across the Stop Killing Games movement today after the European Commission delivered its verdict on the recent parliamentary hearings around online game preservation, and how the EU intends to help - or not - the movement going forward.

Guild Wars 3 developers ArenaNet have published a Hot Take of sorts about the MMORPG genre, while explaining in broad strokes how their forthcoming "modern evolution" will differ from Guild Wars 1, released in 2005, and Guild Wars 2, released in 2012. As they note, MMOs and gaming at large have changed enormously over the course of the series. Entire business models, storage formats, and subsets of bikini armour have come and gone. In particular, the developers offer some thoughts about how the ...

Five years ago, we wrote about how the visual effects in Returnal came to life, including the real-time voxeliser that dissolved Phrike into volumetric fog. If you haven’t read it, that post is a good companion to this one. This is how that story continues. With Saros, we didn’t just extend what we’d built for...

While the time-travel aspects are undercooked, Square Enix's latest feels like a SNES era classic you just never got around to

Witness the Millennium. Square Enix’s HD-2D art style has done wonders for its games. From creating new IPs like Triangle Strategy and Octopath Traveler, to tasteful remakes like the Dragon Quest Erdrick trilogy and Live a Live, the charming presentation has been able to deliver modern gameplay while still invoking a retro feeling. So far, the HD-2D style has been used for only turn-based games, until now. The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales is the first HD-2D game with real-time acti...

No more endless searching for lost roads.

Strauss Zelnick discussed GTA 6’s launch date and why development took so long in an interview with TikToker 'The School of Hard Knocks.'

May was a remarkably busy month for high-profile game releases, which could explain why Luna Abyss' launch went relatively unnoticed on PC and current-gen consoles. It's a sci-fi bullet-hell shooter that seemed to review pretty well, but despite that, the entire development team at Kwalee Labs has been laid off.

Worth a poke.

Sell Lemons codes aren’t available yet, but we can speculate on what they’d offer if they arrive.

A new bundle on Fanatical lets you choose from a selection of games, including Evil Within 1 & 2 and Disco Elysium for just $3 a game.

While Crusader Kings 3 typically deals in the fantasy of sitting on a big chair in one place and shouting at underlings, roaming its world as a the unlanded leader of a band of travelling adventurers is just as fun and arguably the best way to kick off a custom dynasty. Up to now, the freedom to pursue the life of a ruthless mercenary, valiant knight, or stuffy bureaucrat surviving off of favours for rulers while searching for the ideal title or throne to claim as their own once they're ready ha...

A sentient metal has turned against the world in SHADE Protocol, a fantastic looking upcoming metroidvania that has me rather excited

The Guild: Europa 1410 is a reboot of 4HEAD's strategy game Europa 1400: The Guild from 2002, created by the studio behind the well-regarded World War sim Last Train Home. My first hurdle in the Steam demo is working out who and where the hell I am. The demo treats you to a slice of Kuttenberg, a Czech city made famous to a lot of non-Czech people by Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: at a glance, it could be the Warhorse RPG with a top-down mod. It gives you wheel-churned roads among houses of wattle...

Apidya' Special is an authentic 24-bit pixel remake of the 1992 Amiga classic shoot 'em up. Nice to see more retro games make a return like this

4K! 120fps! Mouse support! Indie developer Powerhoof, who you might remember is behind the wonderful multiplayer title Crawl, is bringing its latest game to the Switch and Switch 2 – and it looks excellent. The Drifter is a traditional point-and-click adventure with a heavy pixel art visual style and a story that encompasses murder, conspiracy, shadowy corporations, and more. Though it's coming to both Nintendo platforms, those on Switch 2 can swap between twin-stick controls and a more traditio...
