The very first quest in The Outer Worlds, Obsidian’s highly anticipated first-person RPG out October 25, asked me to make what felt like an impossible choice. On one side was a community of outsiders frustrated by corporate control. Their outpost was something like a worker’s paradise — they were well…
Dungeons & Dragons may have dungeons and dragons, but its real secret sauce is other people. Dungeon masters and party members make campaigns fun and unpredictable, forcing players into high-stakes games of dice-fuelled improv. What do you do, though, when you want to get in on the action, but you…
So checks notes, I’m allowed to say I’m playing Death Stranding. I can’t really say anything about it, but I can at least say I’m playing it.
Today saw the start of Bloody Harvest, the first big event for Borderlands 3. After a month of hit-or-miss weekly events, this Halloween-themed update is a fantastic reason to get back into the game, with numerous challenges to keep players busy and, of course, mountains of loot to scavenge.

Ahead of an earnings call this morning, Ubisoft announced that Watch Dogs: Legion, Rainbow Six Quarantine, and Gods & Monsters would be delayed from their initial early 2020 windows until the next fiscal year, which runs from spring 2020 until spring 2021.
On Wednesday, EA Games released the first gameplay footage of Command & Conquer: Remastered. It’s a brief 30-second clip that begins in the game’s original fuzzy resolution, before transitioning to the crisp new reworked designs for modern screens. It’s bringing me back to the person I was when I first…
Twitter user Hajimerumeru’s mum has been really enjoying Breath of the Wild. She’s totally into the game—to the point where she’s even drawn her own massive, highly-detail Hyrule map.
Deathwing the Destroyer is the massive black dragon whose escape from his underground prison shattered World of Warcraft’s Azeroth, his fiery rage forever changing the face of the planet. Fans of Blizzard’s online battle arena game Heroes of the Storm have been clamouring for Deathwing’s addition to the game’s all-star…
Super Mario Maker 2 is an endlessly creative game, but things get even crazier when players incorporate glitches into their levels. The latest Mario Maker glitch that players have discovered allows creators to use every item in the game in every style, even if they’re exclusive to the Super Mario…
Next week, Battlefield V is heading to the Pacific with two new maps, two new factions and loads of new vehicles and weapons. It also, somehow, is going to be the first time you can play as the U.S.A., at least in this particular Battlefield.
Photographer Mason Drumm is also pretty handy with a set of tools, and this winter set out to build one hell of a great tribute to Breath of the Wild.
Next spring, the new series Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045 is coming to Netflix. The show is in full-3D animation, which is a first for the series.

When I think of classic PlayStation games, I think Crash and Spyro. If I think a bit harder I eventually remember MediEvil, a wacky, gothic-inspired action-adventure game released in 1998 for the original PlayStation. It didn’t set the world on fire, but it did get a sequel before the series…
When I was growing up, there were three games in my household in heavy rotation. Crash Bandicoot 2, Spyro: Gateway to Glimmer and MediEvil. Over the last two years, Sony has brought justice to Spyro and Crash with hefty, polished remasters, merchandise and mind-boggling promotional campaigns. MediEvil Remastered has arrived…
Even though HBO’s Watchmen is directly connected to Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ seminal comic, the studio went to great lengths to emphasise that the series is telling its own story, one that’s only mildly related to the source material. As it turns out, though, that’s not at all the…
Terminator: Dark Fate is an engaging story about three, tremendously powerful women. That’s it. That’s the review. (OK, not really…)
Mario Maker isn’t all that great if you’re craving something moody. The game has proven itself to be an incredibly flexible tool for making clever video game levels that are quite unlike standard Mario designs, but it’s only got a few ways to tinker with mood or tone. That means…
During the late 20th century, Nintendo launched websites to promote games and hardware. At the time of writing, some of those websites are still live, providing an opportunity to visit the internet of yesteryear.
Walk the show floor at PAX Australia, or listen to any of the touring developers, and you’ll hear a lot of chatter about games that are “good for PAX”. It’s basically shorthand for the kind of game that plays well on the show floor, but doesn’t necessarily do well commercially….
21-year-old Cayla Campos has been shot and killed after witnessing an armed robbery in Albuquerque, New Mexico last Friday. Campos had been playing Pokémon Go in her car when the shooting occurred.
The Outer Worlds feels like a throwback to old school Fallout, but with some topical issues and a couple of new tricks up its sleeve. It feels like a virtual theme park full of new adventures around every corner, and I’m totally hooked.
This console generation, sales for the Xbox One are estimated to be around 47 million units behind sales for the PlayStation 4. That’s a huge gap that Microsoft isn’t likely to close before we learn more about the next generation of consoles next year, but it isn’t because the Xbox…
When Shigesato Itoi started work on Mother 2 (Earthbound 2), development hit a wall. Things were at a standstill, and the programming was apparently to blame. That’s when Nintendo suggested Itoi meet with another programmer who could help out. His name was Satoru Iwata.
