By the time I reach the gates of the Outer Ring, I’ve made my peace with Gothic 1 Remake. I have no map. I have no weapon. I have no money (or, in this case, ore nuggets). But what I do have is a pair of bugged-out molerats following me into the camp, screeching all the while.I’d just made the apparent mistake of wandering into the underbrush near the camp’s south gate, where two ugly, toothsome beasts immediately took note of me. Eyeless though they were, their hooked snouts clearly scented my “freshie” status as a newly-delivered Convict trapped behind…

Celeste remains one of my favourite platformers, so of course I’m always curious about whatever developer Extremely OK Games might put out. And while the full studio itself seemingly isn’t ready to reveal what’s next, at least one core dev is. EXOK Games (as they’re also known) announced today that they’ll be publishing City of None, a metroidvania with some lush pixel art by Celeste co-creator Noel Berry, alongside his brother Liam. “A metropolis crumbles into ruin as powerful barons satisfy their greed upon souls lost in time,” explains EXOK of the Berry brothers’ new game. “You are…

PUBG has been a fairly quiet winner for many years, pretty much since its emergence as the battle royale nearly ten years ago. It merged realistic gunplay with high-stakes situations and introduced the BR format to the mainstream. It was a hit, and a cursory glance at the Steam player charts at any time of day will tell you that it continues to be a hit. One thing that PUBG has done in more recent years is bring in a steady stream of collaborations with different brands and products. These range from the mildly cynical product placement events, like the…

Surprise! A fresh Nintendo Direct went live today with mere minutes of advanced notice, detailing the long-awaited next entry in the Star Fox series. Titled simply Star Fox, it’s a remake of Star Fox 64 coming to Switch 2 on June 25, 2026.The footage in the Direct shows levels virtually identical to the original Nintendo 64 game, albeit with a much, much fancier graphical treatment. The Star Fox crew have all been completely redesigned in a way that I’m sure is going to cause debate in the fandom, but they’re true to the puppet-style aesthetic that defined the series’ original…

Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 might be what it is (a bit of a mess), but that doesn’t mean the series is dead in the water. In fact, a whole new game is on the way! It’s called Vampire: The Masquerade – Oaths and Ashes, and it is still technically an RPG, just one mixed up The Fly style with a visual novel. In this entry, you’ll find yourself in contemporary Berlin with two protagonists at the helm. There’s Alice, a “Ventrue operative dispatched by the Camarilla to keep the city’s factions destabilized,” and then there’s Lenz, a…

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick tells reporter Stephen Totilo in a new edition of his Game File newsletter that he’s never shocked when studios like Rockstar inevitably delay GTA 6 to the moment of Christ’s resurrection. Though, he wasn’t fond of BioShock developers stalling on the next title in the creepy shooter series.Zelnick explains to Totilo, “I tend to default to being very calm,” since “I have no trouble distinguishing between, like, a business challenge and an emergency.” So, even though the next BioShock game has been in development for nearly 10 miserable years, Zelnick repeats he was “never” surprised by…

When naming literally anything, great consideration should be taken in the act of doing so. It’s the first scene setter, and a bad name can make you click away quite easily in this fast paced digital age. Yet there I was, humbly scrolling through Social Media Name, when I saw it: pipedog. It’s pipedog! It is exactly what it says on the tin, and nothing more. By that, I mean you play as a dog, a sort of origami looking interpretation of a dog, and you are, according to the game’s Steam page, far from home. “The world…
