It’s an absolute triumph that a Skyrim mod could reach 3,000,000 downloads, let alone win a national award for the quality of its writing, but 2015 mod The Forgotten City did both. Six years later, this freshly remade standalone game from original developer Modern Storyteller reworks, refines, and greatly expands upon the same cleverly interconnected
When Cyberpunk 2077‘s last major update was released in March, it included over 8,000 words worth of changes and bug fixes. You would expect the game’s update 1.3 to be similar and to have some fairly important alterations in the list. CD Projekt RED has highlighted just a trio of changes for the upcoming patch.

Whether you’re new to Marvel’s Avengers or one of our veteran players with multiple max-level heroes, there’s never been a better time to play. Let’s dive into everything that comes in the Expansion. The War for
After a month of information dribbling out of IGN, Valve have uploaded a trailer of their own for the Steam Deck. They describe their new hardware as “the most powerful gaming handheld in the world,” and “powerful, portable PC gaming.” It’s a strong pitch video, honestly, as I continue to debate whether I want to
The Anacrusis showed its first trailer at E3, and it left me a little worried. It’s a four player co-operative shooter from Chet Faliszek’s new studio Stray Bombay, but in a swarm of in-development Left 4 Deadlikes, it looked the most shambling. I still have hope though, and the game’s first dev blog offers plenty
Road 96 reviewThis political road trip is rendered an exciting and entertaining time by its cast and the deliberately piecemeal nature of its storytelling, rather than the story itself. It’s good to make words work hard for you, the lazy little ingrates, and Road 96‘s title is grafting pretty hard. It’s referencing both the name
F.E.A.R. was the kind of shooter where, even after all the enemies were dead, you’d keep firing your gun anyway just to watch the world around you pop, ping and crumble. Like Craig, I was skeptical that the F.E.A.R.-inspired Selaco could recreate that kind of destruction in the GZDoom engine, but no, I was wrong.
Until recently, Steam had an exploit that could’ve let you add unlimited funds to your Steam Wallet. Discovered by security researcher “drbrix”, the storefront had a way users could fake the value of their deposits by changing a few words in the email address associated with the account. Valve have patched the exploit now though,
Another Friday means that Kit and Krysta are back to bring fans another episode of Nintendo Minute. Animal Crossing: New Horizons has received very little content in the past year or so, but that hasn’t stopped the release of a lot of merchandise related to the game. It’s also back-to-school time, so this week’s Nintendo
Ninjas have been a mainstay of games and films for about as long as I can remember. In fact, I fondly remember watching American Ninja as an impressionable young man, wanting to be a ninja so bad it hurt. Yet I also remember playing games like Shinobi on the Sega Megadrive back in the day.

As the last planned expansion in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s first season pass, The Siege of Paris feels like the series going out with more of a whisper than a shout. New and interesting activities are in short supply while content that is functionally identical to the rest of the main game flows like wine. And
Destiny 2 is a game that demands replayability. Whether its jumping into the Strike playlist, running the latest seasonal activity, or grinding out some Gambit challenges, there’s a certain amount of repetition to Destiny’s content. But the fact is, much of that repetition, particularly with older content that hasn’t been updated in years, is getting—for

Life is going to be slightly less strange this September, it turns out. Real life will stay weird, I have no doubt, but Deck Nine’s adventure dramas are getting a bit spread out. While Life Is Strange: True Colors will still be launching in September, the Remastered Collection planned for the end of the month
Destiny 2’s Season of the Splicer has finally reached its end, and not only did it bring chills and tears, but it also brings hope for the franchise’s future.

By Josh Broadwell11 August 2021 15:06 GMT Genshin Impact Crystal Marrow is a new ore in Inazuma that’s had very little practical purpose until now.

AMD’s Radeon RX 6600 XT launches today, and AMD knows exactly what this $379 GPU is good for: rasterized 1080p gaming. The company has thumped this point in its messaging and press releases; the PR for today’s launch claims the 6600 XT is “designed to deliver the ultimate high-framerate, high-fidelity, and highly responsive 1080p gaming

The announcement earlier this year from Nintendo of America which stated that Pokemon GO developer Niantic is developing a Pikmin augmented reality game really came out of the blue as it never really came to the forefront of anyones mind. During Nintendo’s latest financial results the Kyoto-based company mentioned the Pikmin AR game for iOS
I’m having a bad time with my lawn mowing business. I’ve got a company loan that I’m having a lot of trouble paying back. My staff aren’t up to the job required of them, but I’m too scared to fire them. I’ve also lost my passion and attention to detail, and I’m still only at

If the seminal sci-fi film Blade Runner and dystopian literary classic Nineteen Eighty-Four had a video game baby, it would be Observer: System Redux. Set in a decrepit apartment building in futuristic Poland, Observer incorporates familiar science fiction and cyberpunk themes in a way that feels both deferential and distinct from its clear inspirations.

Following the recent lawsuit(s) and allegations that surfaced over the last two weeks, Townsend sent out

Newly unsealed documents in Epic’s antitrust court case against Google allege that the tech giant considered buying “some or all” of Epic Games, out of concern over the Fortnite developer’s intention to sidestep the Google Play app store.
The Ascent is a solid experience that, unfortunately, wasn’t created equal across all platforms. The cyberpunk co-op shooter is available on Steam as well as Xbox platforms, including Game Pass for console and PC.
