Everything’s a show! Everything’s a show! Everything’s a show! Everything’s a show! Did you know Baldur’s Gate is a show? Well, it will be soon. One that’ll carry on from the events of Baldur’s Gate 3 and star characters both old and new.

With the news that beloved RPG Baldur’s Gate 3 is being turned into a HBO TV show with The Last of Us co-showrunner Craig Mazin at the helm, fans of the hit game are voicing their doubts.For one thing, Larian is not involved in the adaptation, and, for another, the game ends with multiple possible endings – both for the main narrative and then for each individual character, including your own. As the HBO show is picking up after the game, that means certain choices are going to be unavoidably sealed as canon, which could prove unpopular.”This is going to…

The next update, Test Of Time, will restore the ability to play as one civilization through the whole game, while making changes to how victories are earned in the hope of creating some lategame variety.

Dune: Awakening had a more devastating downfall than a Russian tsar, with the MMO reaching an incredible 189,333 peak player count on Steam back in 2025 and spending the cold months since then collecting only a fraction of that – about 10,000 players a day. But developer Funcom is sort of at peace with it.Lead producer Ole Andreas and senior content manager Tor Egil discuss this with FRVR in a new interview about Dune: Awakening. “It is a live game, and it’s a natural thing to see the cycles.” Egil explains, “It’s overall hard to expect to keep launch player…

“I think a lot of survival games are really boring,” Geoff ‘Zag’ Keene, founder of Deep Field Games, developers of Half-Life adjacent co-op survival game Abiotic Factor, said in a recent interview. However, despite these strong words, please hold onto your spit take for just a moment. It’s not the first time Keene’s said something like it and, in fact, in the episode of The AIAS Game Maker’s Notebook, he’s responding to a question about when he said it to cheery RPS fanzine PC Gamer back in 2024.

Prime Video’s Fallout TV series may very well be taking a page out of Fallout 4 when it comes to the Ghoul/Cooper Howard reuniting with his family.Warning: spoilers for the Fallout season 2 ending follow.”I think one of the fun things about the Fallout world is that cryo exists,” Robertson-Dworet explained to Cinema Blend, when asked if Cooper Howard’s family is still alive. “So there’s always these questions of, ‘Were they in cryo before she left the note? Are they in cryo again? What is happening? How old would Barb be now? How many years has she been out of…

If the biggest games on Steam were celestial bodies, Rust would be an especially brown and bloody moon, kind of like the one from Iron Lung but with more survival game dirt and wood. Here in the year 2026, Rust is consistently the most-played survival game on Steam and still getting enormous updates. In a February 5 dev blog, Facepunch Studios unveiled a naval update packing an entire ocean worth of content, from player boats to city boats to evil boats. Oh, and the game is 50% off right now.”It’s a big one,” the perilously long post begins, and player-made…
