Following a seemingly solid launch for Dragon Age: The Veilguard, there’s probably a fair few series newcomers considering delving into the original trilogy. But anyone hoping for a Mass Effect: Legendary Edition style remaster shouldn’t hold their breath; Dragon Age: The Veilguard creative director John Epler says the project would be challenging because hardly […]
While we’re getting a Gears Of War prequel in Gears Of War: E-Day, this does mean that Gears Of War 6 is yet to be a thing. In a recent episode of IGN’s Podcast Unlocked, former Gears Of War director and current Diablo 4 lead Rod Fergusson revealed what his plans were for Gears 6 […]
Some days, I wonder if every word written before a trailer is actually superfluous. It’s a visual medium, after all. What can a description achieve save to clumsily gesture at the true shape of something; a dog-eared tour brochure for a thrilling weekend spelunking in Plato’s cave?

Going by three hours with a preview build last month, the Indiana Jones of Indiana Jones And The Great Circle has the hungriest hands this side of Thief 2014.

I wonder what she’d make of the Hadidian, cross-purpose, modular thicket of residential units, parkland, […]
Ubisoft Montpellier’s Beyond Good And Evil 2 has been delayed so much that it has transcended the label of “vapourware”, while staunchly refusing to become “abandonware”. Announced in 2008, it has now comfortably outstripped Duke Nukem Forever as the “triple-A” game with the longest development time. I’m sure there are a few indie passion […]
The December update for Fallout 76 is going to be a big one – as well as introducing camp pets and the ability to earn descriptive player titles for your Vault dweller, Bethesda’s online Fallout game will also be getting a challenging new end-game raid called The Gleaming Depths, which will see co-op teams of […]
Sony developer Guerrilla seems to be done with Killzone, instead now favouring its Horizon series. According to art director Roy Postma, Guerrilla’s decision to start working on the Horizon series was a conscious choice by the developer, and one which would see it move away from the darker and more violent Killzone games the studio […]
Indie horror developer Bloober Team says its done making “shitty” games.
