RedLynx, The Studio Behind The Trials Series, Is Being Closed By Ubisoft

Another one bites the dust. If you were around during the height of the 'Xbox Live Arcade' initiative, then you might have played a little game called Trials HD. It was a big part of the second 'Summer of Arcade' event when it launched in 2009, garnering positive reception and helping Finnish developer RedLynx produce several sequels, including Trials Evolution, Trials Fusion, and Trials Rising. Nintendo fans only received the latter entry on Switch, but the entire series is well worth playing, ...

Destiny 1 project, which aims to port the game to PC, seemingly gets a nod from Bungie boss

The original Destiny never made it to PC, but the shooter-MMO may not stay locked to PS4 and Xbox One for much longer. Some crafty modders have been working to get the game running on PC, and their efforts recently caught the eye of Bungie, which surprisingly didn't result in a take-down - not yet, at least.

"My idea of a Netflix for games doesn’t work": Garry's Mod creator says struggling spiritual successor S&box will go free to play as part of major rethink

Earlier this year, Garry's Mod and Rust developers Facepunch Studios released S&box, a mix of open source game development platform/spiritual successor to their Valve prop-filled physics sandbox. It's not fared well, only earning mixed reviews and being stuffed with low quality AI generated games early doors. Now, Facepunch founder Garry Newman has announced plans for a major overhaul that'll see S&box go free to play.

If you've sworn off genAI Crazy Taxi and dislike all the twerking in GTA 6, consider Shifu: Traffic Masters, a jolly open world driving game set in 1990s China

I'm not your guy for computerised automobile magic picture shows, or "car videogames" as they are popularly known – for that, we turn fearfully to Mark Warren, whose every word during Gchat meetings is screamed against a backdrop of throbbing motors. Still, once in a blue moon a car game hooks my interest. Take Shifu: Traffic Masters, which we can approxiately translate as Driver and/or Midtown Madness (those are explicit inspirations), but set in northern China during the 1990s. It's got a demo...

Planet Zoo 2 is a beautiful sequel and a fine management sim, but it's the animals that steal the show

If the Planet Zoo series has taught me anything it's that I'm rubbish at animals. Sure, I'm okay with the simple stuff - I do, you'll be relieved to hear, know the difference between an elephant and a flamingo - but the more exotic they get, the second we start dabbling in subspecies, the more clueless I am. That was one of the joys of the original Planet Zoo: a chance to discover a vibrant menagerie of unusual animals, all brought to wonderful life by developer Frontier's typically exquisite ar...
