I would die for Deadlock's new hero Rem, who also has one of the best easter eggs I've seen in a competitive PvP game
Following last week’s colossal Deadlock update, the community has been voting on which of Valve’s six new heroes it wants added to the game first. I had my money on Silver, the self-proclaimed “hot mess,” but Deadlock players have pleasantly surprised me, opting for the adorable nap enthusiast Rem. This sleepy, imp-like creature is the teeniest lil’ guy, and is now available to play in the ever-expanding MOBA. As well as a kit that will heal allies and make foes drowsy, Valve has also bestowed Rem with an incredibly cute easter egg that has swiftly been discovered in Deadlock’s hub…

Just like the recently released Commodore 64 Ultimate, the MiniST will use chips to mimic the original system’s innards on a hardware level while allowing for modern perks like HDMI output and USB support. The catch? Well, it’s a small-scale project that’s aiming to make five units in the initial run.In a post shared to the Facebook group “Atari ST and STe users”, MiniST creator Dennis Shaw confirms that “all the materials are open source and can be freely obtained.” (via Tom’s Hardware).…
Hell Express is Death Stranding meets Helldivers meets Pacific Drive – aka, deliver letters to the dead in a combat truck
Quick confession: every time I come up with an absolute Frankenstein’s cocktail of allusion-cobbling Google-bait like the headline for this article, a fairy dies. But that’s OK, because Hell Express is a top-down 3D extraction shooter about delivering letters to the dead. When I play it – there’s no release date yet – I will convey a note of apology to the soul of the fairy I’ve just slain with my appalling SEO practices. This may be difficult, however, because many of the underworld’s denizens are hostile. The only thing you’ll be delivering to them is bullets, fire and explosives.
Arc Raiders update adds controversial solo versus squads matchmaking and new punishments for cheaters
Unveiled last week, the new Arc Raiders update has finally arrived. Titled Headwinds is one of the biggest updates since launch, with a new Arc-slaying Project, a map condition that will push you to the rooftops of Buried City, and its Solo vs Squads matchmaking queue, which will either be a genius addition to keep high-skill players entertained or a total disaster. However, with the full patch notes now live, there are a few more details to make you aware of, including a new chain of punishments for cheaters. Headwinds is the first stage of Arc Raiders’ ambitious roadmap for…
Free to play shooter Highguard has debuted to a strong playerbase on Steam, but the achievement has been softened somewhat by over 13 thousand negative Steam reviews.Highguard was announced at The Game Awards, gaining a large amount of attention due to being the final game announced at the show.This slot is usually reserved for announcements from large franchises or well-known studios, so a debut shooter being placed in the slot, followed by radio silence from developer Wildlight Entertainment, turned heads.The game was released on Monday for PC and consoles, and has been met with a mixed reception from players online.…

Fallout New Vegas now has sneaky dogs thanks to a mod, so you and your pooch can patiently pad past predators
You’re shuffling through the desert scrub, wondering if the clawed beasts just a few yards away have spotted you yet. You’ve made sure to pop a Stealth Boy just to be extra safe, and told Raul that if his knees creak at an inopportune moment, he’s on his own. Then, you realise you brought Rex along, and he’s gotten stuck on a rock several meters behind you. Finally freeing himself, the good boy bounds towards you at full speed. This should be the point in some Fallout New Vegas stealthing that you realise it’s brown trousers time. It isn’t, because…
Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2 releases four trailers to show off the new Techmarine, and all my dreams have come true
We Iron Hands players don’t ask for a lot. Honestly, acknowledgement that we exist is usually enough. I’m incredibly jealous of the new Iron Warriors Warsmith that Games Workshop just revealed for the tabletop game, but Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2 developer Focus Entertainment has come through at the perfect time to put a stop to any heretical thoughts and bring me back to the light of the Omnissiah. I mean, Emperor… Yes, it has finally unveiled the Techmarine class, and released four trailers showing off its abilities – and they’re better than I ever could have imagined. Heresy aside,…
