Controversial racer Lego 2K Drive is getting delisted soon, with its servers set to be shutdown in 2027
It has been revealed that Lego 2K Drive is surreptitiously being delisted next week, ending its fairly brief three-year-run. Additionally, its multiplayer elements will become defunct next year, as its online capabilities will cease to function. Though it’s currently unclear why 2K Drive is now on its final lap, it could have something to do with its licensed vehicles.

It’s only when eagle-eyed players spotted a fresh disclaimer on its store pages that its fate became known.…

Subnautica 2 gold is one of the rarer materials you’ll need once you’ve become well acquainted with the likes of titanium and copper. It’s also one of those annoying resources that will appear in countless crafting recipes before you’ve ever seen it in your surroundings, leading you to desperately ask where to find it.Don’t worry, I did the same thing for a while too, but at least you’ve got me to help guide the way. It’s not easy – you’ll need to progress the story and get your hands on some serious kit before heading out to the dangerous area…
Come dribble with me over this pitch for Total War: Redwall, in which Shrimp 'n' Hotroot soup is a vital strategic resource
Total War: Redwall is not an actual Total War game, unfortunately, nor even a mod like Mossflower TW. It’s an evolving pitch from Reddit user BuildingAirships, one among many thousands circulating on yonder internet, like logboats riding the rapids of Noonvale. The latest update is about a potential cooking and feasting system, with all of the comestibles sourced from the groaning banqueting tables of the Brian Jacques books.
For a very specific segment of the extraction shooter crowd, Marathon has landed incredibly strongly, with Bungie’s trademark FPS combat backed up by a very firm sense of identity and world building. In a new blog post, however, Game Director Joe Ziegler concedes that its appeal might be too niche for the long-term, acknowledging that Marathon is “overwhelming to learn,” and that it’s too much of a hardcore sweat-fiesta. “It’s hard to find that chill moment,” he writes, so for Season 2 the team is leaning into both “more mind-bending sci-fi” and more laid-back ways to play. “Nearly three months…

The Steam Controller doesn't just scream for its life; it will also sing its little haptic heart out
By now, you’ve likely seen a million videos of the Steam Controller screaming classic movie-style as it drops from a height. It’s exactly the kind of fun easter egg that makes Valve’s gamepad so special, especially since it uses haptics rather than a speaker. However, rather than making it cry out as it plummets, you can instead use an app to make it chirp a bunch of MIDI tracks.First highlighted by Beebreadtech on TikTok, you can effectively make the Steam Controller sing using an app. Creatively dubbed SteamHapticsSinger, the GitHub program is actually forked from code for Valve’s first gamepad,…

Borderlands 4's new tag-team superboss borrows a killer trick from Dark Souls' Ornstein and Smough
Borderlands 4 update 1.7 is coming at the end of May, and its big highlight is the introduction of the FPS game’s second raid boss encounter. This time we’ll be fighting not one, but two purportedly ‘Invincible’ foes at the same time. As if that wasn’t enough, the pair have taken notes from one of the most iconic double battles in gaming: Ornstein and Smough, arguably the most famous challenge in all of Dark Souls. Taking one of these enemies down is just the beginning, therefore, but the rewards should be worth it. Borderlands 4 Raid Boss 2, to give…
