Video game trademark renewals are always happening, and while they don’t necessarily mean something is on the horizon, they do tend to create some excitement whenever it’s a classic game or series we haven’t heard about for some time.

There are some high-falutin descriptions on The Sealed Ampoule, making it seem more complicated than it really is. It’s described as an ‘agriculturalisation’ game, a farming rogue-like, an alchemical dungeon-crawler and more, and it’s overcooking something that, in practice, is so simple that you could play it in your sleep.  Once you strip everything out,

Rabbids: Party of Legends is out now on Xbox One (and Xbox Series X|S through backward compatibility), delivering a brand-new multiplayer Rabbid party-game adventure packed with wacky games and chaotic fun.

Despite what the title suggests, Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course is much more than just a fancy flan or fruit tart to top off the gourmet meal that was the original game. This is an expansion that certainly favors quality over quantity, consisting primarily of only six mainline boss fights, but they’re six incredible boss

Starting a cult isn’t easy work, but somebody’s got to do it in Massive Monster’s Cult of the Lamb, which hits consoles and PC next month. Fortunately, the team behind the devilishly cute game has released a new trailer with tips and tricks to start, and maintain, the best cult. The first step is simple:

Sonic’s transition to 3D has always been tricky. That 2D to 3D lane change has continued to dog the hedgehog’s releases even into the modern generations (isn’t that right, Sonic Forces?) whereas former rival Mario kept soaring beyond galaxies, getting more comfortable with each release. For Sonic, these transitional woes were the case even at

The Xbox’s love for Outrun continues with Pure Chase 80’s. Like Horizon Chase Turbo, Slipstream and Hotshot Racing before it, Pure Chase 80’s is nostalgic for a time when shiny red sports cars accelerated towards a pixelated horizon; where the only means of cornering was a drift; and straights were spent pumping your fists to

It’s a new era for the world of Formula 1, with some of the biggest changes seen in the sport in four decades shaking up not only the status quo, but also the spines of the drivers as teams wrestle to rein in the engineering quirks of this year’s new cars. Codemasters has followed suit

Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope blends tactical gameplay with Super Mario and Raving Rabbids-themed mayhem, and it clearly aims to build on its predecessor, Kingdom Battle. I’ve always been a fan of Mario, but Rabbids on the other hand, have always left me a little frustrated. Yet, Sparks of Hope seems to be the

Ever since Outriders released early last year, I’ve held a theory that it’s the ultimate fast food game: a bland story filled with cheesy one-liners and mindless encounters that you know aren’t good for you, but undeniably awesome combat that’s easy for you and your friends to lose hours in just makes it so dang
