Console and PC players trade hope and despair while they await Crimson Desert, as first PS5 Pro footage looks promising but Steam suddenly warns of Denuvo DRM
There’s a phrase that keeps coming up in discussions about Crimson Desert, and one I continually come back to every time I write about it: “It looks too good to be true.” PS5 and Xbox players in particular have been skeptical, since you don’t have to look much further than Cyberpunk 2077 for a game that looked great on PC at launch but offered a dismal experience on console. Today, the monkey’s paw curled, as the first console footage looks very impressive, but Steam is suddenly warning PC gamers of the approach of their greatest nemesis: Denuvo DRM.The tech experts…
I am going to be playing this rap album that's also a walkthrough of indie classic Cave Story on repeat
What’s the best video game guide you’ve ever used? There’s an art to it, knowing what information is imperative to include, how to include it, is it a written guide, or a video? Well, how about a 21 track long rap album? I only ask because, I am so delighted to say, someone has done just that for indie classic Metroidvania Cave Story. So, let’s start at the beginning. In 2004, developer Daisuke “Pixel” Amaya released Cave Story. Five years later, a person who seemingly goes by CaveStoryRap, or Lee=Emcee², decided to write a rap album that tells…
How do you play The Ironclad in Slay the Spire 2? The Ironclads were a fierce group of warriors who had been at war with rival clans for centuries. In hopes of swinging the odds in their favor, The Ironclad sought power from divine forces to help his clan succeed. After making a pact with a demon, The Ironclad became unstoppable, single-handedly destroying his enemies and allies in a blind fury. The Ironclads were no more, and only The Ironclad remained. As one of the three returning Slay the Spire 2 characters, The Ironclad has several new tools to slaughter…

Slay the Spire 2 players can't decide if they love or hate the Spectral Knight, who can break your deck, but whose "debuff will be more of a buff" once you understand the fight
Hundreds of thousands of players have been jumping into Slay the Spire 2 since the roguelike went into early access on March 5. As the community explores everything Mega Crit’s sequel has to offer, opinions are starting to split on one of the Elites, because their effect can be a real nuisance in the wrong circumstances.In Act 3, you’ll face the Knight Trio; three knights, each dealing a distinct kind of menace. The Flail Knight is all about damage, while the Spectral Knight continuously turns your cards ethereal, and the Magi Knight downgrades your deck. Of them, it’s the Spectral…
What are all of the League of Legends skin tiers, and how do you get cosmetics cheap? As Riot’s MOBA continues to expand, it’s a legitimate question to ask. I remember the good ol’ days when there were only Deluxe, Epic, Legendary, and Ultimate skins; now there’s Transcendent, Mythic Variants, Exalted – the list feels like it goes on and on.

Over the past few years, Riot’s premium-level…

The first thing Arc Raiders testers told Embark after the game pivoted to PvP was "they didn't like the PvP," and they didn't feel any better about its looting: "They were not very happy"
Arc Raiders is in the awkward position of being a popular PvPvE game with some players who despise PvP but, you know, at least developer Embark Studios is used to it. Production director Caio Braga shares during a Game Developer Conference 2026 panel attended by GamesRadar+ that Arc Raiders’ PvP has been controversial from the second it was conceived.Braga says during his talk – candidly titled “WHEN YOUR AAA GAME ISN’T FUN” – that Embark decided on “a big reset” at one point during Arc Raiders’ development and added PvP. Unfortunately for him, “the very first feedback was, players didn’t…
Well, a week out from the gargantuan merging of MMO and RPG bits’ release, we finally know what Crimson Desert is. It’s a game that’s just slurped down some Denuvo DRM (. Yep, the shonky enormity of exploding slippage whose devs reckon they announced it too early has been fed some anti-tamper software at the last minute.
Marathon slides out of Steam's top 50 most-played games just a week on from its promising launch
After drumming up a decent amount of excitement in the final months before launch (a stark contrast to the skepticism it was met with after playtests last year) Marathon has burst onto the extraction shooter scene with plenty of glowing endorsements. However, while we don’t officially know what constitutes a success in Bungie and Sony’s eyes, it’s not drawing in the same kind of crowds as Arc Raiders does, for example. A launch day peak of 88,000 players on Steam alone was a solid showing, but things have been steadily dropping off since. A week on from the big day,…
