What is the Elden Ring movie release date? To many, Elden Ring is merely a game about fighting… things. Monsters, people, strange, non-descript globules of matter; fighting does take center stage in FromSoft’s epic, but there is so much more to Elden Ring than a good scrap. With a movie officially in the works, we’ve gathered everything there is to know about the release date, the cast, and what they might tackle with the story. The Elden Ring movie isn’t the first videogame to get a shot at the big screen, and it most certainly won’t be the last. With…
Arc Raiders players all sigh with relief as Embark extends new Expedition challenge window from 5 days to 13, and confirms it's "approximately equivalent to destroying 20 Bastions"
Responding to concerns and criticisms about Arc Raiders’ updated Expedition system, developer Embark Studios announced a major change and released some new information that collectively make the system sound much more agreeable.For this Expedition cycle, players will have to deal damage in a limited-time challenge in order to earn maximum bonus skill points, meaning the money they may have saved for the previous value-based rewards is now worthless. Originally, players would’ve had just five days to complete the challenge, leaving many worried about their available free time.Embark says players will now have a full 13 days to complete the damage…
“This game contains depictions of violence, self harm, and general misery,” opens Casualties: Unknown, a short but still considerate content warning for the survival game ahead. Boy howdy is that last one accurate! We’ll get back to that, first, how about some setup. Casualties: Unknown is set in the year 2XXX, and you are a bioengineered anthropomorphic creature capable of thought that has been set to a plant to recover some lost cargo. Upon arriving at said planet, you must essentially head downwards, as far as I can tell, through 11 layers of this alien world. It is…
Verdict Diablo 4 Lord of Hatred feels, in many ways, like the end. With evil seemingly vanquished for now, a reworked endgame that really does have everything you need, and eight unique, exciting classes, I’m not sure where Blizzard goes from here. It does, however, serve as a climatic end to a saga of strife and woe, and while its narrative didn’t quite hit the spot for me, I can’t wait to explore more of what Skovos has to offer. I went into Diablo 4 Lord of Hatred with a feeling of sadness. It feels like the conclusion of an…
Diablo 4 will get updates until the day it dies because players keep finding new problems "over the course of 10,000 hours," says Blizzard
Blizzard has been taking in Diablo 4 player feedback and using it to shape game updates since shortly after launch in May 2023, and the developer doesn’t expect it’ll ever stop.In the latest issue of PC Gamer magazine, associate game director Zaven Haroutunian and game designer Aislyn Hall opened up about the challenges of keeping everyone happy in a game meant to be played over many years and hundreds of hours. It’s the endgame, typically, that draws out the most fervent commenters, and Diablo 4’s upcoming Lord of Hatred expansion is geared specifically for players who feel like they run…
Take a flight to the uncanny valley with Aion 2, the MMO all about verticality that's going global this year
The concept of an MMO getting a sequel is always a strange one to me, but nonetheless Aion 2 is here. Or at least it will be, sometime this year, as NCSoft have confirmed that “the only MMORPG built around a world where the sky is the battlefield” (perhaps an odd place to plant your flag) is getting a global release on PC later this year. It’s been available in South Korea and Taiwan since last year, but with this upcoming release some of the rest of us can have a go. By some, I mean those that…
Ex-Escape From Tarkov devs will "ride the wave" of AI, but stress "the finishing touch must always come from a human hand"
Nomion Games is the brainchild of former Battlestate Games duo Dmitri Ogorodnikov and German Terekhov. Having left the Escape From Tarkov studio for pastures new, the pair bring with them a wealth of experience, and have certainly felt the changing tides within the industry over the years. A key belief pillar for Nomion is, according to Ogorodnikov, that “creative potential, accumulated experience, and ambition should not be put on hold.” As the integration of AI into videogame development continues to be a hot topic, usually for the wrong reasons, it was only prudent that I quizzed the devs behind upcoming…

"Mythology, by its nature, is told and retold": Hades 2 dev on changing its controversial ending
Last year, Hades 2 left early access, and Mark liked it! He did note, however, that its ending was potentially going to end up polarising, and with the accuracy of The Fates, this came to pass: Supergiant changed the game’s true ending a month after its 1.0 launch because enough people didn’t like it. This didn’t land with universal praise either, for a myriad of reasons, but it stuck, and in a recent interview, the developer’s creative director Greg Kasavin shared his thoughts regarding the process of making such a change. Explaining to GamesRadar that while “in general,…
At a certain point in an extraction shooter wipe, going in with a free loadout becomes a ridiculously tough pursuit. No matter how cautious you are, you’re bound to run into players that are looted to the gods. Your meds get gobbled up in an instant, and you’re suddenly praying to a higher power for any sort of exit that gets you back to the lobby safe. In Marathon, you already have limited backpack space, so stocking up on extra consumables mid-run is often a difficult choice. Well, in the FPS game’s latest update, Bungie has offered a small amount…
