What's Hot

Project Hail Mary blew me away. Going in, I didn’t know much about the big-budget sci-fi movie, aside from the fact that it was based on a novel by The Martian author Andy Weir, there was an alien involved, and, crucially (for me, anyway), it starred Ryan Gosling.I liked the film so much I awarded it 4-stars in my Project Hail Mary review, and, afterwards, I got to thinking about another upcoming, major sci-fi film starring Gosling – Star Wars: Starfighter.As a lifelong, massive Star Wars fan, I was naturally already curious about Starfighter, which is arriving in 2027, hot…
Ubisoft are ending game development at long-time Tom Clancy studio Red Storm with 105 staff laid off, according to reports
Ubisoft have reportedly laid off all of the game developers at Red Storm Entertainment, with the long-time Tom Clancy studio being repurposed from a place where games are developed to a place that just provides behind-the-scenes tech support. 105 staff have lost their jobs in this downsizing, which follows the cancellation of Red Storm’s The Division Heartland in 2024.
Keep up with these new Star Savior codes, and you’ll have the means to boost some low-tier characters to lofty heights in no time. You probably should save any free upgrade materials for a character that isn’t likely to be powercrept by a decent pull a few weeks after launch, but the choice is ultimately yours. Star Savior is a turn-based RPG with extensive gacha mechanics. Pull for new units (Saviors) and equip them with companions to boost their power. Assemble a balanced team, and you can jet off through the stars to take on mean monsters and crueler characters.…
Slay the Spire 2 devs respond to a flurry of bad Steam reviews aimed at its first balance patch: "This progress will not be linear, and no change is necessarily permanent"
Slay the Spire 2 was inundated with thousands of negative Steam reviews right after the game’s first major balance patch, so developer Mega Crit has come out to explain the team’s approach to Early Access for players who are new to the series or just new to Early Access games in general.Slay the Spire 2 yesterday added a Phobia Mode to turn the game’s creepiest sights slightly less creepy in the new beta patch v0.100.0, as well as sweeping changes in the name of balance aimed at making infinite builds a little harder to pull off. All tweaks were part…
Fortnite adds buildable Star Wars islands, so you can finally make a Mos Eisley Cantina full of flossing Jawas
Fortnite’s just gotten a new toolset that’ll let folks build Star Wars-themed islands at the start of May, wich is good news for anyone who’s ever craved the ability to create a map that somehow validates their Boba Fett and Chawbacca fanfiction.
When you play Slay the Spire 2 for the first time, you’d be forgiven for thinking that you’re just playing Slay the Spire. The vast majority of sequels bear some semblance of what came before, but this one really does invite déjà vu. I wouldn’t say I was disappointed by this revelation – more of the best deckbuilder ever made can never be a letdown – but after months of hype, I found myself starving for a new experience. I’ve been sated by Slay the Spire 2’s multiplayer mode. I was distantly aware of custom multiplayer mods floating around for…
"We have no desire to be a media empire," says Palworld publishing head, but Pocketpair would be stupid to let the survival game die out
Pocketpair isn’t trying to turn Palworld into a “media empire,” according to the company’s head of publishing and communications John ‘Bucky’ Buckley. All of its fledgling spinoffs are simply a product of fan demand.In an interview with GamesRadar+ at GDC 2026, Buckley called out the common misconception that Pocketpair are “trying to turn Palworld into this big, big, big, big, big, big thing.” Bigger than it already is, he means. To Buckley, “it’s more so that we’re just kind of doing what our players are asking us to do.”Upcoming farming sim spinoff Palworld: Palfarm was born because there was apparently…
Hoarder is just a beautiful Polish cleaning sim from a former Darkwood dev, until you find the staircase to the very different game beneath
The co-creator of extremely good horror game Darkwood is making a cleaning simulator, comparable to PowerWash Simulator and Viscera Cleanup Detail. Or at least, something that starts out as a cleaning simulator, and may even end as a cleaning simulator, if you choose, but which harbours sunken secrets that unlock an entirely different species of game. A bit like Inscryption, yes. They’re calling it Hoarder. The development team are Byzel (Polish for mess or clutter, apparently), who are part of boardgame company Awaken Realms. They’re led by Acid Wizard co-founder Gustaw Stachaszewski, and include a few of the people behind…
Crimson Desert was always going to be a game that split the room, and its first two days since launch have only further emphasized just how true that is. Among the conversation points: an unconventional control scheme with minimal ability to rebind your layout, a tremendously vast open world that doesn’t always have the depth to match, and boss battles that can feel like major difficulty spikes. The latest discussion point? Questions around whether some of its in-game paintings might be AI-generated. The hottest-button issue in gaming was bound to rear its head eventually, and here it is. The Crimson…
Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet's been away from the spotlight, but Neil Druckmann's teasing the return of a The Last of Us actor in the sci-fi game
We haven’t seen much from Naughty Dog’s new space romp Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet outside of its reveal trailer from well over a year ago, but game director Neil Druckmann has just teased that a prominent The Last of Us actor is set to return.On his personal Instagram account, Druckmann yesterday uploaded a picture of actor Merle Dandridge wearing a motion capture suit while posing in what looks like a mocap studio. The caption is a little less vague, calling Dandridge a “n̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶a̶l̶ intergalactic treasure.” Calling it a tease might be cutting it short.Merle Dandridge has a pretty long, extensive…
