Abandon your plans to run for public office. If you don’t, you’ll not be eligible to apply to be a contestant on the Fallout Shelter reality TV series Amazon are now working on, following the success of their other Fallout show. Stop protesting, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to be locked in a set resembling a vault and subsequently have your mind messed with as you and your fellow inmates take on a bunch of challenges.
What are the best Hytale servers? Just like Minecraft, Hytale is a fantastic game to explore alone, but it’s so much better with others. After years spent making friends in Minecraft servers, we’ve now started looking for our new Hytale home. With the sandbox game having only launched recently, even Hytale server owners weren’t able to get anything built beforehand, so don’t expect anything ground-breaking from these servers just yet. Instead, it’s a great time to be among the first to claim your space, meet some new friends, and make a name for yourself as an early player in one…
Heading into launch, Anthem was often called a “Destiny killer” – though that was a label assigned by press and enthusiasts, not by the devs at BioWare themselves. Yet by the time Anthem launched in 2019, it seemed clear that the devs had missed some key lessons from Bungie’s looter shooter. As veteran producer Mark Darrah explains in a new interview, BioWare was still trying to take lessons from the venerable Diablo series rather than Destiny.”I think it took Anthem a very long time to admit to itself that it was a looter shooter,” Darrah tells Destin Legarie. That tracks…
According to long-time Bethesda developer and Skyrim co-lead designer Kurt Kuhlmann, he was originally told he’d be leading the charge on basting the great turkey that is the The Elder Scrolls 6. That didn’t end up coming to pass and, having left Bethesda back in 2023, the developer’s now spilled the beans as to the sort of story he envisioned the follow-up to The Elder Scrolls 6 telling.
More than a dozen Disney-published games have just been pulled from sale on Steam, and it’s yet another mark of disappointment for the age of digital preservation. While most of those that vanished aren’t to be found on our best Disney games list, having them suddenly stripped away feels bad, especially given that there was no prior warning to give players a last chance to grab them. The move has also affected some classic LucasArts games, and I’m particularly sad to see 1996 god sim Afterlife among them. The vast majority of the titles affected are old licensed games that…

Quarantine Zone: The Last Check was a breakout hit at one of last year’s Steam Next Fest events, garnering more than one million Steam Wishlists thanks to a hot demo, and its winning streak has only continued now that it’s properly launched.For a game set in the thick of a zombie apocalypse, Quarantine Zone surprisingly doesn’t cast players as a struggling survivor or a guns-blazing soldier. It instead riffs on indie classic Papers, Please by having players operate a military checkpoint that’s in control of who gets to join the ever-growing, titular community and who needs to be turned away…
DLSS 4.5 is out now, and while previous new versions of Nvidia’s performance-massaging upscaler would have required waiting around for game implementation – beyond the inevitable Cyberpunk 2077 debut, anyway – it follows more recent additions in letting you impose it upon existing games from the off. That’s done via the Nvidia App and its DLSS Override tools, which following an update on January 14th, is tooled up with what version 4.5 promises to be tangible visual improvements. I’ve been testing it, both on this public Nvidia App release and on a pre-release beta build, and DLSS 4.5 can indeed…
The first Hytale update has arrived, and it’s got me all excited about torches. That’s a feeling I haven’t had since I was deep in a Terraria hole many years ago, and it feels good to see such a swell of positivity around the Minecraft-style sandbox game’s launch after its dramatic death and rebirth. I still can’t quite believe it’s actually out, just half a year after former owner Riot Games pulled the plug on the project. Yet here we are, and as we come to the end of week one, a new patch brings its first round of changes.…
Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ 3.0 update adds more to the game than any update we’ve seen before, and with all the hype surrounding the brand new Resort Hotel and Zelda/Splatoon items, you might have ignored the equally important Slumber Islands.Luna’s islands have had an upgrade, and you can now save three Slumber Islands of three sizes that you can choose from, complete with whatever decorations, furniture, and terraforming you’d like to perform to create the island of your dreams. If you want to try performing a radical island design overhaul but don’t want to ruin all of your precious hard…
