This year’s Next event, set for 21st August, will seemingly switch to being entirely online rather than in person; Activision referred to it as “a global event”. You can expect a developer briefing on what the show will feature, before it throws it to live gameplay from creators. This is not the only thing being
Palworld continues to prove that it’s more than a flash-in-the-pan novelty. The survival-crafting romp with legally distinct pokémon just had its second weekend since it hit 1.0, following a couple of years in early access, and it’s only getting more popular. The second weekend saw concurrents approaching a million on Steam (961,867, to be exact),
I’m not sure who thinks we need a Call of Duty movie, but it’s officially a thing, and it’s coming out on June 30, 2028. It’s “an authentic and exciting experience for longtime fans and newcomers alike.” While this tidbit was confirmed earlier in the year, Activision and Paramount gave us little more than that
Well, it turns out that Bethesda’s executive producer Todd Howard and I have at least two things in common—we’re both roughly 5 feet 6 inches tall, and we’re both chronic Reddit lurkers.

It’s that time of year again: The next Call of Duty is on deck, and Activision’s got the beta dates to prove it. Modern Warfare 4 won’t hit the streets until late October, but the multiplayer beta begins a full two months ahead of time. As usual, Activision is holding two beta weekends: One for
Of the many remarkable abilities possessed by Dishonored hero Corvo Attano, perhaps the most remarkable is, well, possession: Corvo can possess creatures, most famously the game’s plentiful rats, to get up to all sorts of trouble, including accessing locations that would be inaccessible to his full-sized body. As it turns out, this wasn’t an entirely
What would you say to the following pitch: a Deus Ex fan mod, in the works for seven years, set in a Deus Ex forum whose moderator has been abducted. The factions consist of people like goat worshippers and llama devotees, some enemies use sporks, and people use phrases like “What the radish?” without cringing.
Steam’s Train Fest has begun, meaning there are deals and discounts on lots of locomotive games, even a few brand new ones like Denshattack, which just came out this month. But when it comes to train sales there’s really only one train game to talk about: Train Simulator Classic, a sim notable for having a
This week, Path of Exile will ditch a system that defined it for over a decade, making the action RPG considerably easier to approach for new players. The developers at Grinding Gear Games told PC Gamer that they’re questioning everything that’s sacred going forward, but apparently some things are still off the table—at least for
Jennifer English, who gained fame for her portrayal of Shadowheart in Baldur’s Gate 3 and then won a BAFTA award for best performer in a leading role for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, has announced that she is withdrawing from the role of Gwendolyn in the upcoming Tides of Annihilation in order to “properly look after
