We finally have our first official look at Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced ahead of its release on July 9, 2026, and it promises to be one very big swashbuckling reunion with Edward Kenway. Entirely rebuilt on Ubisoft’s latest Anvil Engine, Ubisoft is setting out to deliver a “faithful remake” that will continue to be a “solo adventure and character-driven experience”, with game director Richard Knight stressing “it is not an RPG”.But we can also expect to set sail with some exciting new content and changes that aim to improve the original 2013 experience. Alongside a visual overhaul with high…
After a rough launch last year, work on Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 continues, with the game’s first DLC, Loose Cannon, having now settled on a release date: April 27th! That’s soon, like next week soon as long as my materially non-existent calendar is right. A new trailer and a fresh bout of details about the DLC were shared too, offering some insight into what you’ll actually be doing. This time around, you’ll be playing as Benny Muldoon, who didn’t feature all that much in Phyre’s story, which according to a dev log is essentially why he…
Jack Buser, Google Cloud’s Global Director for Games, claims that AI will allow game creators to not only develop more titles in a shorter span of time, but makes it easier for them to take risks, knowing that even if a release doesn’t hit with gamers, they have more opportunities to find a title that does. The use of AI in game development has seen a huge increase over the past year to a largely negative reception from audiences. That hasn’t stopped the train, though, with many big names in the industry showing interest in the technology. Bethesda’s Todd Howard…
Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream has stormed to the top of the physical game charts in Japan, easily outselling the rest of the top 10 multiple times over.According to Famitsu’s weekly software and hardware sales, the physical version of Nintendo‘s Switch life sim sold 565,405 copies between its release on April 16 and the end of the chart period on April 19.This puts it well ahead of the second placed game, the PS5 version of fellow new entry Pragmata, which sold 36,470 copies. The Switch 2 version of Pragmata failed to make the top 10 in Japan.Pokémon Pokopia also sold…
If you’re any kind of actor, getting the call for something related to The Lord of the Rings is likely up there as far as a dream opportunity. As rumors circulate about Kingdom Come: Deliverance developer Warhorse Studios delving into Middle-earth, the man behind that RPG’s protagonist is making it known he’d happily step into the land of Hobbits and Elves.Speaking to Radio Times Gaming at this year’s BAFTA Games Awards, Tom McKay, the voice of Henry in the Kingdom Come: Deliverance games, discussed the possibility of joining JRR Tolkien’s universe in some way. Which character would he play? “There…
Mayhaps ye have heard the legend of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, the remake Ubisoft havefinally revealed today, April 23rd, after years of reported and leaked whispers. Ahead of this Black Flag remake’s arrival on July 9th, its required PC specs have slipped into port.
Its existence has been known for a while, officially or otherwise, but Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced has finally been fully revealed. The remake of the fan-favorite game will be out on July 9, and it looks incredible. It’s more than a visual overhaul, though. Lots of changes have been made to modernize Black Flag, removing many of the original game’s issues and adding new content. The open world game has been completely rebuilt from the ground up in Ubisoft’s modern Anvil engine – the same one that was used for Assassin’s Creed: Shadows. The combat has been overhauled to…
One thing the Assassin’s Creed series has always managed to do well is meet media fads with near-perfect timing.Whether the media landscape is currently obsessed with Vikings, the Renaissance, or Feudal Japan, this series of hooded boys and their neck-stabbing toys always meets the mood at just the right moment to capitalize on the interest. There is perhaps no greater example of this than when Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag was released in 2013, when the pirate aesthetic ruled our hearts, but there wasn’t much coming out to cater to that desire.The Pirates of the Caribbean series was going downhill…
Tomodachi Life Living the Dream personality types are what makes the game feel alive, and are important to pay attention to if you want a thriving island. They keep your Miis feeling unique, determine how they approach interactions with other island residents, their feelings, and their overall general attitude.Personality types also determine your “Island Vibe” in the island Info menu, and house colors. And if that wasn’t enough already, in my Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream review, I mention how collecting all of them is one of the best parts of Nintendo’s new social sim.That may seem stressful at first…
Unreasonably grand strategy game Europa Universalis 5 will get a Byzantine Empire-themed expansion called Fate of the Phoenix on May 6th, developers Paradox Interactive have announced. Not heard of EU5? Back in October, our reviewer Brendy called the game “a deep and intricate historical simulation that will overwhelm you with menus as much as it will compel you through centuries of global history.” Brendy is gone now (RPS in peace), reduced to a mocking cackle on the wind, and I alone stand in my ignorance between you and this very first EU5 “Immersion pack”, in which there is…
