Despite the cartoon-style visuals, No Man’s Sky and Sea of Thieves don’t really share much DNA. One is a sci-fi survival game that’s grown massively over the years, while the other is one of the best co-op games around, delivering an adventure across the Seven Seas, and both are great in their own right. Void Crew, however, is a somewhat chaotic blend of the two games, making it a space-faring bucket full of fun – it also happens to be cheaper than ever right now. While it can be played alone, Void Crew works best if you drag your crew…

Neil Newbon, the actor behind Astarion from Baldur’s Gate 3, has completed his two-year-long playthrough of the game and surprise, surprise, he loved it.With all due respect to Newbon, there’s very little that hasn’t been said about the greatness of Baldur’s Gate 3. The game was a triumphant sweep at all of the major game award shows from 2023, topped many GOTY lists that year, and scooped up all sorts of other prestigious awards for various elements like music, performances, and narrative. Still, it’s neat to hear Newbon’s unique perspective as someone who worked on the game since 2019 as…

At this point, it won’t come as a surprise to hear that graphics card prices could be on the rise, as stores and graphics card manufacturers react to rising VRAM prices and dwindling GPU supply. However, a new report now claims that Nvidia itself has started charging a higher price for the GPU+VRAM bundles that it sells to graphics card makers. This Nvidia GPU price increase will put a direct strain on any potential profit margin for the card makers and could result in further price increases. No in-store prices have been directly affected yet, and Nvidia hasn’t made a…

Arc Raiders developer Embark Studios is actively discussing the game’s late spawn system, which frequently drops raiders into active raids with roughly 17 to 25 minutes remaining. The system serves an essential purpose, design lead Virgil Watkins says, but it also “really sucks” to have no time for your intended objective.We’ve all been there. You’ve loaded your Equalizer and packed your Deadline mines. It’s time to kill the Queen. Oh, wait, you’re 800 meters away from the Queen’s Harvester, there are 18 minutes left in the raid, and you can hear the Queen actively exploding from here, freshly slain by…

Last year, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 showed that a studio outside of the traditional AAA space could build a successful game that can rival – and arguably surpass – the work of much larger, more established studios. For Adrian Chmielarz, a 34-year game dev veteran now working as creative director on RPG shooter Witchfire, the notion that the often inexperienced devs at Sandfall Interactive managed to make Expedition 33 at all is downright amazing.”Last week I learned that the guys behind Expedition 33 hired a lot of newbies, people who didn’t make a game before,” Chmielarz tells GamesIndustry.biz. “And now…

Steam’s ‘Complete Your Collection’ bundles are one of Valve’s best innovations for its storefront. Bundles are a great way to get games, DLCs, soundtracks, and more at slightly cheaper prices than you would if you were to buy them all separately, but Complete Your Collection adjusts the contents of a bundle based on your current library so that you don’t end up buying the same product twice. However, this handy feature has never been part of the gifting system – until today. As has been spotted by the SteamDB team, Valve now lets you gift Complete Your Collection bundles to…

After its surprise Halloween announcement, The Conjuring prequel First Communion now has a release date.You might remember that The Conjuring: Last Rites was heavily advertised as the final movie in the longstanding franchise. Well, after it ended up having the biggest global opening for a horror movie ever, it seems that New Line and Atomic Monster decided, “Why not?” in terms of keeping the franchise going. As it stands, Last Rates grossed $495 million at the global box office against a budget of just $55 million. The franchise as a whole, including the Annabelle spin-offs, has grossed over $2.7 billion…

‘It’s like Balatro’ is the most overused comparison in indie games, and yet I can’t help but return to it every time I talk about Ball x Pit. There are no cards, no poker, no jokers, no bananas, no Jimbo, no tarot, no Ben Starrs, but it is a roguelike where you craft careful combos to make the numbies go higher than you could possibly believe. I put more hours into Ball x Pit on my Steam Deck last year than any other game, and just when I thought I was out, developer Kenny Sun and Friends pulls me back in with its…
