NetEase is aware that some Marvel Rivals players are getting paid to deliberately throw matches, and it’s threatening to dish out permanent bans to anyone caught taking on these bounties.A website called Intlist recently caused waves for allowing players to post bounties across a number of online games, including Counter-Strike 2, Valorant, Overwatch, and Marvel Rivals. People could essentially put a cash bounty on any player for any reason, and the system then rewards the person who throws a match against the target.The website became so prolific that the official Marvel Rivals Twitter account had to step in and give…
The people behind RoboCop: Rogue City may have accidentally released an early version of an unannounced Hunter: The Reckoning game, set in the same World Of Darkness universe as Vampire: The Masquerade. The files in question were shared as an update for Rogue City, in what could be either a coded message from Hunter-Net’s witness1, or a classic case of backend butterfingers.
The legal battle around Ashes of Creation is unlikely to settle in any clear way soon, but we’ve just received a significant update courtesy of a fresh statement from Intrepid Studios founder Steven Sharif, who was also game director on the now-abandoned MMORPG. Lawsuits are ongoing in both directions, with Sharif and investor group TFE Games Holdings both filing claims against one another in February.

Now that Pokopia, the cozy Animal Crossing: New Horizons-esque Pokemon spin-off, has been out in the wild for a solid day, folks have been reporting back on what they think of it – and it’s safe to say most players are very impressed so far.Pokemon Pokopia is huge. So huge, in fact, it’s almost too huge. It’s got the day-to-day jobs and chores Animal Crossing titles do, coupled with the creative building from games like Dragon Quest Builders – and even Minecraft, which arguably stands as the most iconic sandbox experience to date. You have Pokemon to tend to, materials…
Do you remember the days when we didn’t need to talk about generative AI? Whatever side of the pro or anti fence you sit on, or even indeed if your buttocks are firmly planted on those white picket panels, you may be tired of hearing about which games do or don’t feature AI-created artworks. Even the US supreme court seems done with the whole business, as they recently refused to take a case about copyrighting AI art. I wish, instead, developers would avoid the whole kerfuffle and do what Slay The Spire 2’s developers Mega Crit Games have done: just…
Ok, so I don’t mean to alarm anyone, but I think I just found my favorite game of 2026 so far. No, it’s not the freshly released Marathon, despite my affinity for competitive shooters.

Xbox Project Helix is now a reality, as we finally have confirmation that a new console is on its way. In a world where “everything is an Xbox” there was an air of uncertainty about whether we’d see a mainline follow-up to the Xbox Series X and S, but that’s all changing. Just a few weeks into her new position, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma has announced on X (Twitter) that the next-generational system is in the works, and I’m already seeing key details emerge.There’s still a lot we don’t know about Project Helix, including its true name, when it will…
