Raiders of the Lost Carp. I've had my fingers crossed for a single-player Splatoon game ever since... well, since Splatoon 1, now that I think about it. I love a bit of online Turf War battling, really I do, but the very best parts of the series for me have always been those stellar single-player campaigns, which annoyingly seem to wrap up just as I'm really getting into them. Splatoon 2's Octo Expansion and 3's Side Order came close to fulfilling my dream, but I always wanted something more. A ...

Grand Theft Auto 6 has finally locked its 19th November release date and pre-orders are now open. It should be cause for celebration, but with the lack of a proper physical release and after the firing of employees last year (a move considered to be "union-busting" by former and current staff), Rockstar Games is getting as much bad attention as it is good. Now, the workers union coming together at the studio is taking its efforts a step further.

The newly-formed Rockstar IWGB Game Workers Union are pushing for official recognition by Rockstar ahead of GTA 6's console release this November. Although the union publicly announced themselves at the end of May, they still aren't officially recognised by Rockstar Games. Until they are acknowledged by Rockstar, the union won't have the formal channels to push for their stated aims of pay transparency, flexible working, and an end to crunch. However, UK law is on the union's side.

Former Dragon Age wordsmith David Gaider isn't keen on the use of generative AI in game development, at least in the tech's current form. In the veteran developer's view, even if it can be used as a means to speed up the handling of more mundane tasks - which is the way many execs have been trying to sell it - genAI runs the risk of inhibiting developers' abilities to teach the less experienced colleagues the ins and outs of the craft.

Still the King? It’s been 14 years since Tekken last showed up on a Nintendo console. Yet despite supporting the Wii U and 3DS with Tekken Tag Tournament 2 and Tekken 3D: Prime Edition, Bandai Namco has yet to grace the Switch 1 or 2 with a new entry or port. Enter Hamster. The company’s latest Arcade Archives 2 release revives the original 1994 arcade Tekken for Switch 2, enhancing it with a modernised menu, new modes, and online leaderboards. In sticking to its arcade roots, however, we miss o...

Nah. Nope. I'm good, thanks. None of those are exactly what former Archetype Entertainment studio head and BioWare veteran James Ohlen said when Hasbro asked him if he fancied making a Baldur's Gate 4, but they essentially capture the jist. Despite having worked on the RPG series before, the former boss behind upcoming sci-fi RPG Exodus wasn't keen in picking up the baton Larian had tossed aside, mainly because trying to live up to the expectations their last work set would be a hugely daunting ...

The word going around Summer Game Fest this year was that Stranger Than Heaven was tougher than nails. And having played it I can confirm that it is. Until it isn't.

But once you unlearn a few habits and learn to think the way it wants you to, it's less di...
