Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's best minigame will be enhanced, expanded, and "powered up" for part 3 of the JRPG remake trilogy
Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 is still largely shrouded in mystery, but director Naoki Hamaguchi has confirmed that an enhanced and expanded version of Queen’s Blood, the fan-favorite card game introduced in Rebirth, will be a big feature in the upcoming JRPG.”Queen’s Blood is a very popular and beloved minigame, and I believe a lot of people are still wanting something like that,” Hamaguchi told Polygon. “I want to expand on Queen’s Blood so that we are enhancing it, and giving you a more powered-up version of it when you see that third installment… Queen’s Blood is still going…
Steam Machine and Steam Deck support will be coming to Nexus Mods' Windows-only mod manager at some point
Ah, cool. The world’s foremost hosts of unofficial Skyrim additions you’d rather not have to explain to an elderly relative, Nexus Mods, have committed to bringing SteamOS support to their mod manager Vortex at some point down the line. That’ll mean you can use it with the Steam Machine and Steam Deck, if you fancy a modded playthrough on the go or via a smaller package.
What is the best Steam Deck case? A quality gaming handheld case will keep your precious portable safe while traveling, and protect it from scratches and drops in daily life. Valve does include an official carrying case with the Steam Deck, but this won’t necessarily cover all of your needs. That’s why we’ve tried and tested more options, whether you want a carrying case to fit your accessories or a low-profile case that wraps snugly around your device at all times. Several of these cases also work for other handhelds, so if you’ve just bought an Xbox Ally X, this…
The Sims 4's biggest sex mod, WickedWhims, is launched 400,000 times a day according to its creator
The Sims 4 is a game about life, and life is about sex – at least in part, right? While sexual encounters in-game are portrayed in a way that would be appropriate for network television, it’s little surprise that the game’s most notable mod would arguably be the one that makes it all X-rated. The mod’s popularity is no secret, but a new interview with its creator puts a massive figure on that success.”On average, 400,000 people per day” play the mod, according to a machine translated interview of creator Turbodriver from German outlet Taz (thanks, PC Gamer). “That’s how…
Arc Raiders devs reveal plans for "new large Arc", a fresh map, and two more Expeditions this spring
Har(c)ken to me, defenders of Speranza! Embark have just announced their plans for ARC Raiders updates over the first four months of 2026. The extraction shooter’s next season is called Escalation, and its offerings range from new maps and enemies to new Raider decks, changes to existing maps, and more Expeditions. The headline attraction is surely the “new large Arc” coming in April. I wonder how big Arcs can get. Perhaps an Arc the size of a map, like Cronos in God Of War 3? But, you know, metal?
What is the best Steam Deck dock? A gaming handheld dock can transform your portable device into a hybrid gaming PC.

Our top choice is the Jsaux Upgraded Steam Deck Dock that offers loads of connections and a decent build for a great price.

46 US lawmakers express "serious concerns" about the Saudi-led EA buyout's impact on game developers
The Saudi-led acquisition of Electronic Arts is meeting with more friction in the US House of Congress. 46 lawmakers have signed a letter calling on the Federal Trade Commission to investigate the debt-financed $55 billion deal for signs that it could be damaging for workers and anti-competitive to the point of breaking US anti-trust law. As passed along by Game Developer, the letter has been organised by Labor Caucus co-chairs Steven Horsford, Debbie Dingell, Mark Pocan, and Donald Norcross – the Labor Caucus being a group of over 120 members of Congress focused on “advancing the needs of working people…
Warzone Season 2 is the beginning of a "new chapter" for ranked play, with a focus on Resurgence and a brand new mode
While I’ve played a fair amount of Call of Duty Warzone in my time, I’ve never really felt compelled to get stuck into its ranked experience. I’ve dabbled in ranked Apex Legends and Fortnite in the past, but Warzone took so long to establish its competitive scene that I really never cared for it. However, I could be tempted by some of the changes coming to Warzone Season 2, which Raven Software says mark a “new chapter” for the battle royale game. The big difference in Warzone Season 2 is that the traditional, large-map ranked mode will be replaced with…
