"There are going to be multiple maps coming this year": Arc Raiders dev teases 2026 roadmap, and maybe some new maps "even grander than what we've got now"
Buoyed by a launch wave that surpassed 12 million players in a few months, Arc Raiders developer Embark is preparing a suite of new content for its 2026 roadmap to diversify the game in the year ahead.Asked about Embark’s target cadence for releasing new content like maps, weapons, objectives, and enemies, design lead Virgil Watkins tells GamesRadar+ that “sometime soon, I believe we’re going to be putting out a chunk of a roadmap for the upcoming months. But right now, it’s us kind of deciding exactly that cadence, that stuff. And you are correct on the types of content, and…
Promising Bully mod, which mirrored GTA Online multiplayer, gets axed just one month after launching
20 years on, Bully is still very much a cult hit. It’s relatively understated by Rockstar Games’ standards; it’s a far more concise experience compared to its other sprawling open-world games, but it’s no less excellent. Recently, a team of modders brought GTA Online-style multiplayer functionality to Canis Canem Edit. But, sadly, it has already been pulled. The brainchild of YouTuber ‘Swegta,’ the Bully Online mod was filled with promise. Loaded up with various minigames, including racing and a bona fide FPS mode, Rat Wars, alongside other social features, Bully Online was primed to become the de facto way to…

Marvel Rivals' Deadpool is a triple-role menace, and the Merc with a Mouth's cringe-worthy interactions don't disappoint
Deadpool is like Marmite: you either love him or want to lock him in a Saw trap. His brash humor and inability to shut up can be grating for many, but I absolutely adore him. Deadpool’s Art of War is one of the first comic series I bought in its entirety, so suffice it to say, I’m very excited to see him come to Marvel Rivals. Though Season 6 has yet to launch, we already know a lot about NetEase’s in-game iteration of the Merc with a Mouth, and everything I’ve seen so far has only gotten me more excited.…
Marty Supreme director says the sports drama almost ended with Timothée Chalamet getting bit by a vampire played by the Shark Tank guy
Josh Safdie says that the “I was born in 1601″ line in Marty Supreme may not have been a joke after all…”You’re on his eyes, we built the prosthetic for Timmy and everything, and Mr. Wonderful shows up behind him and takes a bite out of his neck, and that was the last thing in the movie,” Safdie told fellow filmmaker Sean Baker on the A24 Podcast (via The Playlist).You might recall that there’s a part in Marty Supreme where Milton Rockwell (Kevin O’Leary) says to Marty Mauser (Timothee Chalamet): “I was born in 1601. I’m a vampire. I’ve been…
Monster Hunter Wilds sleuth has seemingly uncovered bizarre reason for performance drops: "I refused to believe what I was seeing"
Monster Hunter Wilds was one of last year’s biggest releases, and still draws in huge crowds each day. Capcom’s beast-slaying co-op game may be a hit, but even now as it approaches its first birthday in February, the game is still held back by performance issues – particularly on PC. Capcom has taken many swings at improving the experience, and it is notably better than at launch, but frame rate drops remain a mysterious thorn in Wilds’ side that the developer has been unable to fully remove. However, one Monster Hunter Wilds player believes they’ve found an unusual reason why…
George Lucas Padawan Dave Filoni is taking over as co-president of Lucasfilm as Kathleen Kennedy steps down after 14 years
After 14 years as president of Lucasfilm, Kathleen Kennedy is stepping down to return to the role of a producer.Meanwhile, chief creative officer Dave Filoni and general manager Lynwen Brennan will step up as co-presidents, taking over as the leaders of the Star Wars franchise (via StarWars.com).The move is not entirely unexpected, with the official announcement presaged by a spate of unconfirmed reports of the personnel shift earlier this month. Filoni’s ascent to the head role makes total sense, as he’s been part of Lucasfilm since 2008, when he directed the animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars, working so…
Want to know how Hytale mana and magic works? With likely more than one million people hopping into early access, there’s little chance you’re the only one wondering how to increase your max mana in Hytale and how to use it to cast spells. After all, there’s a mana section on the character sheet, but all is not what it seems. Before we dig into the Hytale magic system, it’s important to remember that this sandbox game is in early access, so there are some aspects that still need more development time. While certain elements like the combat mechanics have…

Elder Scrolls Online lead says Xbox's layoffs aren't the reason the MMO is switching over to smaller updates: "Seasons is not in any way a response to that"
Last week, The Elder Scrolls Online studio Zenimax Online revealed in the game’s 2026 roadmap that it’s ditching the huge, annual expansions it’s been doing for years in favor of smaller, seasonal updates every three months. It’s not an unprecedented move by any means, with fellow Xbox Game Studios developer Rare taking Sea of Thieves in a similar direction a few years back. That said, with Microsoft’s brutal layoffs last year still fresh on the memory, it’s hard not to question… why now? After 11 years, why now?Well, we don’t really have a hard answer to that question (Zenimax Online…
