I have spent a considerable amount of time playing the Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era demo. As someone relatively new to the series, Unfrozen’s gorgeous 3D world, varied factions, and fun yet complex turn-based action won me over at Gamescom 2025 – as someone who doesn’t really gel with hardcore strategy games, it was a welcome surprise. But, as if I wasn’t hyped enough already, Jon Van Caneghem, the father of Might and Magic, is returning to the world he created, and it’s music to my ears. In 1983, Van Caneghem created New World Computing, kickstarting one of…
The price of No Rest for the Wicked, the action RPG from Ori maker Moon Studios, will jump from $40 to $60 when it eventually hits 1.0 and leaves Steam Early Access. Studio head Thomas Mahler reiterated this plan on Thursday, with the game currently enjoying a “one-time” 40% off sale, and compared Moon’s approach to Larian’s handling of Baldur’s Gate 3, which was $60 even when it began Early Access.”I’m not trying to do any FOMO marketing here, but yes: when we hit 1.0, No Rest for the Wicked will move to $60, because it’s a premium title,” Mahler…
Verdict Combining a gaming keyboard with a Stream Deck is going to be a dream setup for some, but not a game-changer for most. However, this keyboard is really well made and brings masses of functions to your fingertips for a price that, while high, is actually reasonable value. Pros Great build quality Stream Deck brings loads of functions to your keyboard Really nice animations/images on the OLED screens Cons Stream Deck buttons make for a bad numpad Stream Deck functions only work when app is loaded High price In what seems like one of the longest-gestating product developments of…
Prime Video’s God of War streaming series has added two actors in the key roles of Odin and Thor, expanding the influence of 2022’s popular entry in the game franchise, God of War: Ragnarok. Fans should be quite pleased with the casting, as it brings in two powerhouse performers to the characters.First up, Mandy Patinkin, perhaps best known for his role as Inigo Montoya in beloved fantasy film The Princess Bride, will bring the gravitas he’s shown in many of his films to Odin, king of the Aesir, AKA the Norse gods. Odin is the primary antagonist of God of…
Most of the best games like Diablo today are fairly linear evolutions on the core pieces of the format. More classes and skills, richer loot systems, improved buildcrafting, bigger and flashier boss battles. Yet despite its deep-set roots in the Blizzard classic, Darkhaven developer Moon Beast Productions is taking a unique approach. Its promise is “an ARPG unlike any other,” and that’s more than hollow words; the newcomer takes place in a dynamic and persistent open world that’s actively shaped by players, allowing you to dramatically transform the environment as your adventure progresses. In its early state, the isometric dark…
Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined is finally here, and I have some sage wisdom for newcomers that I was reminded of thanks to recent comments from producer Takeshi Ichikawa.In a recent Reddit AMA, Ichikawa was asked what his favorite job is from the newly overhauled vocation system, which lets any party member “moonlight” as two vocations at once, and he fell back on a tried-and-true essential: the cleric, or priest as it’s more commonly localized these days.”I’m not particularly skilled at RPGs, so I often put a Cleric in my party,” he said. “With their job traits, they can heal the…
What’s in the Phasmophobia 2026 roadmap? 2025 was far from a quiet year for Phasmophobia. There was a new map, new ghosts, and thrilling seasonal events. Kinetic Games has now revealed its plans for this year, though, and it’s even more chock-full of content than the last. Over five years on from its early access release, Phasmophobia remains one of our favorite horror games on PC. It looks cool, the atmosphere is tense, and the developer has been sure to update tools, mechanics, and more over the years. Among the things that are still desperately awaiting an update, though, is…
Highguard’s first big patch is here, and it seems to be geared mostly toward improving performance, a smart move considering that’s one of the biggest pain points that’s emerged since the controversial shooter’s launch earlier this week.Following a puzzling debut trailer at The Game Awards 2025 that really struggled to distinguish Highguard from the pile of dead live-service shooters rotting behind the curtains – not to mention warrant its position as the show’s big closer – Wildlight’s fairly generic-looking hero shooter launched this week to, you guessed it, pretty bad reviews and lackluster player counts. Naturally, folks have all sorts…
Do you miss the good old days of Diablo, before Blizzard’s hellish clickfest megamorphed into a live service Beezelbub owned and operated by stinky uncle Microsoft? Be upstanding, perhaps, for Darkhaven – a new action RPG from a studio founded by a trio of Diablo 1 and Diablo 2 veterans, who have some questionable notions about weaponising volcanos. Said veterans are Diablo 2 lead character artist Philip Shenk, Diablo 2 programmer/designer/lead Peter Hu, and the original Diablo’s senior designer, art director, and story writer Erich Schaefer. So, actual veterans then, rather than people who sneezed in the presence of some…
Europa Universalis 5 update 1.1 is looking increasingly stacked, and yet Paradox Tinto keeps putting more onto the pile. UI and menu improvements, the return of EU4’s army builder, overhauls to AI aggression and the economic system – you name it, the developer is taking a look at it. But what about actual, tangible additions? Fear not, because content design lead Álvaro J Sanz Martín, known best as ‘Pavia,’ is here to walk us through the new inclusions and adjustments we can expect. In case its ‘Rossbach’ moniker didn’t give it away, a big part of the new Europa Universalis…
