Arc Raiders is busting some myths surrounding its aggression-based matchmaking. Embark put out quite a lengthy post on May 10 explaining how its PvP/PvE lobbies work, why they exist, and most importantly, why it thinks unpredictability is essential to the multiplayer game experience. The idea of players belonging to one specific lobby has always been a bit of a fallacy, and it led to many, myself included, playing Arc Raiders in an unnatural way to try to game the system. Avoiding conflict, being unnecessarily hostile, all in the hopes of being paired with like-minded players. With Embark’s new blog post,…

In addition, Rainbow…

Ahead of a chat with Civilization 7 creative director Ed Beach, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that the veteran designer played a hand in making one of my all-time favorite strategy games. That would be The Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth 2 – specifically its Rise of the Witch King expansion – for which Beach was executive producer.With dual campaigns that let you save Middle-earth or sack it, along with some devilishly replayable skirmish maps, the 2006 real-time strategy title can be credited with introducing a bunch of console-heads to the traditionally PC-centric world of RTS games.…

While in the midst of not great financial times at the moment, Ubisoft have revealed plans to have new Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Ghost Recon games out at some point between now and early 2029. Boss Yves Guillemot is touting this to investors as signifying an incoming turnaround following “one of the most ambitious transformations in the company’s history”, which is corpospeak for taking a bunch of money from Tencent to rearrange some corporate chairs, delaying or cancelling a bunch of games, and laying off staff.

“AI is not for creating art, but for unleashing the potential of creators,” according to Capcom’s VP of game development platform and AI solutions, Shinichi Inoue.Speaking from Google Cloud Next 2026 in Las Vegas to 4Gamer.net, Inoue-san talks about how Capcom uses AI during development, and clarifies that Capcom is not using the tools to create art.This follows on from Google Cloud’s Jack Buser saying, “I think what players don’t realise is that their favourite games right now were already built with AI,” in April, suggesting that Capcom was one example of a developer utilising AI.Now, Inoue-san seems to be…

The Boys season 5 has brought the long-running Prime Video show to a final end – and the response has remained pretty mixed on how it all went down. The finale saw Homelander and Billy Butcher fight it out in the White House as Antony Starr’s Supe was finally killed.However, while the moment was a hit with some people, other fans had been expecting more, especially given the tease of “scorched earth” between the two heavyweights. Showrunner Eric Kripke has reacted to this in a new interview, explaining why he didn’t go “post-apocalyptic” with the series in its final episodes.”For…

I’m often curious about how major plot twists are pitched. Did Darth Vader revealing he’s Luke’s father make sense to everyone else in the room? What about when Ken Levine told his team about where BioShock was going? In the case of one of the bigger moments in The Witcher 3, the writing team was slightly flabbergasted, according to the person who came up with it.To mark the 11-year anniversary of The Witcher 3, Pawel Sasko, a quest designer on the RPG who’s now an associate game director at CD Projekt, revealed he threw out an idea for The Battle…

Grab a copy of Dark Messiah or Warhammer: Vermintide, then sprinkle some Roboquest and a dash of Hades, and you’ll get Mortal Sin. At first, the almost grotesque layer of paint over the retro-style visuals looks unappealing, but as you get used to it, this indie soon cements itself as one of the best roguelite games of rest years – trust me, I should know. Unlike the isometric view of Hades that makes the combat feel more action-packed, or the cartoony visuals of a title like Roboquest, Mortal Sin puts you knee-deep into the guts and gore. It’s easy to…

All the way back in the halcyon days of 2025, there was a show on Netflix called Stranger Things. Created by Matt and Ross Duffer, better known as The Duffer Brothers, the show was an enormous hit for the streamer, and ended with a great final episode that everyone loved. Just kidding! Anyway, the point here is that hot on the heels of the finale of the blockbuster series, Netflix has been engaging in a little game every other streamer and network has been playing for the past decade, to try and recreate the sensation with a new series… And…
