Even with characters from one of the biggest and most beloved IPs of all time, Marvel Rivals maker NetEase was still taking a significant risk releasing a live-service hero shooter in 2024, just months after PlayStation launched and then subsequently killed its own similar game, Concord.Unsurprisingly, that risk was not lost on NetEase, with publishing and marketing lead Yachen Bian telling GamesRadar+ at this year’s GDC that the team felt “panic” stepping into the live-service graveyard. But instead of expecting failure, the team set out to ensure it didn’t step into the same pitfalls of the dead live-service shooters laying…
Whether it’s Todd Howard’s many coy remarks in recent months, or the steady flow of speculation from insiders and leakers, remasters of classic Fallout games seem inevitable. While Fallout 76’s ever-evolving world has benefited greatly from the buzz around the TV show, the absence of a brand-new Fallout game has been pointed out by, well, pretty much every one. Reviving some of its post-apocalyptic RPGs would be one way in which Bethesda could capitalize, and with The Elder Scrolls Oblivion’s remaster being a huge success last year, there’s proof that it’d be a worthwhile exercise. New Vegas and Fallout 3…
Diablo 4’s upcoming Lord of Hatred expansion will address the long-running issue of overpowered builds from a new angle. Instead of countering those builds with nerfs, which everyone hates, Blizzard is adding a whopping eight new Torment, or difficulty tiers, in an attempt to give players a better excuse for their stupidly overpowered characters.The news was quietly revealed in a recent interview with YouTuber Wudijo, in which associate game director Zaven Haroutunian explains the reasoning for adding so many new Torment tiers beyond the current four. “Big numbers feel cool, they feel good for players to get. Just, you know, ‘oh…
It’s no secret that those shadowy guys with all the money to fund games generally don’t have much interest in narrative heavy, singleplayer games. And yet even still, games like Dispatch continue to do very well for themselves. Even still, for developer AdHoc Studio, the funding process doesn’t sound like it was an easy one, but in their self-admitted “arrogance and stupidity,” they went on to make it anyway. GDC kicked off yesterday (sorry, GDC Festival of Gaming, whatever that means), and Dispatch creative directors and AdHoc co-founders Nick Hermand and Dennis Lenart took part in a talk…
What are the Elden Ring bosses in order? The most defining moments in soulslike games are the tough boss fights. They can be tricky for several reasons; some are hard to hit consistently, while others can annihilate you with just one attack. The Lands Between boasts over 200 Elden Ring bosses, but you only need to beat 12 bosses to finish the game. In addition to an ordered list of mandatory boss encounters, our list of Elden Ring bosses includes where to find them and what rewards they drop. We’ve also collated the top five Elden Ring bosses in order of…
After bringing Dafne Keen into the MCU as Laura/X-23 in Deadpool and Wolverine, fans have been asking when she might appear next, and now they’re debating whether she should stay as X-23, or take over as the new MCU Wolverine.”Instead of recasting Wolverine right away when they introduce the MCU X-Men, just have Dafne Keen be a version of Wolverine for a while,” reads the Reddit post that hosts the discussion. “It makes the most sense to me, that way they can ease the general public into casting a new Logan since studio heads are seemingly so concerned about confusing…
Mega Man will be sounding a bit different in his next game Dual Override, it seems. Earlier today, voice actor Ben Diskin, who voiced the character in Mega Man 11, shared on his personal Bluesky account that he would not be reprising his role as the character, claiming that he was asked to return for it, “but only on the condition I work without the protections of a union contract.” Diskin went on to say that he “was told there are ‘full A.I. protections in place that guarantee in writing that [my] voice will never be used for…
What is Nvidia DLSS? Deep Learning Super Sampling, or DLSS, is a suite of software technologies that use AI to help you boost your frame rate or game image quality. Originally just a technique for upscaling games from a lower to a higher resolution, DLSS has since expanded to become a range of techniques, including options to generate entirely new frames using AI, using AI to improve ray tracing image quality, and there’s even DLSS AI-based anti-aliasing. AMD offers a rival suite of technologies called FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR), and Intel also has its XeSS tech. You’ll need a GPU…

When Another Crab’s Treasure director and Aggro Crab founder Nick Kaman found himself in therapy following a lost bet with Content Warning lead developer Wilhelm Nylund, he probably wasn’t expecting to release a game co-developed by Nylund’s studio Landfall Games that ended up outselling Another Crab’s Treasure and Content Warning combined — but that’s exactly what happened.Telling “the story of Peak” at a GDC 2026 panel attended by GamesRadar+, Kaman says he had a “raging jealousy” for Nylund when he saw that Landfall was able to make Content Warning in just six weeks while Another Crab’s Treasure, which was a…
