A Goat Simulator card game began crowdfunding on Kickstarter on April 30, and it looks like a party game that wants to maximize chaos. Players play goats, kit them out in wacky equipment, and race to be the first to earn 10 'chaos' points. Plus, this might be the only board game we've ever seen that involves throwing a ragdoll goat plushie to gain extra actions on a turn. Read the rest of the story... View the full article

Despelote ought to feel idiosyncratic. Set in Ecuador during the country's historic World Cup qualifying campaign in 2001, its protagonist is a half-remembered version of the game's lead developer. Yet there's nothing peculiar about it, either. Despelote is a game so authentic and personal that it hits upon universal truths. Read more View the full article

Open world crime blockbuster Grand Theft Auto 6 has been delayed until next year, say Rockstar, telling fans that they "need this extra time to deliver at the level of quality you expect and deserve". It's not the biggest surprise - delays happen. But it's a slightly embarrassing announcement given that Strauss Zelnick, big boss of publisher Take-Two, has twice publicly reassured investors that the game would release on time in autumn this year. The announcement comes with some sense of relief, however, as Rockstar have now set a firm date in Spring. Read more View the full article

I knew Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was something special from the first moment I laid eyes on it. In a sea of Summer Game Fest trailers showcasing everything from Doom: The Dark Ages to that Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred trailer, it was, for me, the standout. Between its gorgeous world, stellar graphics, and intriguing plotline, Sandfall's debut has cemented itself as one of the greatest turn-based RPGs of all time, arriving to critical acclaim and even giving Bethesda's much-anticipated Oblivion Remastered a run for its money. It's all over my timeline, it's probably all over yours, and it's even attracted the attention of French President, Emmanuel Macron. Read the rest of the story...

Until now, Escape From Tarkov PvE has been a place where you can do raids, hunt PMCs, and get loot without having to wipe all your progress. When it was made available as an expansion back in 2024, Battlestate said that EFT's player-versus-environment mode would never force you to reset your character. Now, with the 1.0 and Steam releases on their way, BSG confirms that to reach the conclusion of Escape From Tarkov PvE, you will in fact need to wipe. But it's not forced - and starting from scratch will actually make the completed version of the extraction FPS a lot more enjoyable. Read the rest of the story...

Originally slated for a fall 2025 release, GTA 6 has now been delayed to 2026. The upside to this otherwise sad news is that we now have an official release date—May 26, 2026. The devs didn't have much to say about this change, but they did explain the main reason for it. In a statement posted on X (formerly Twitter), Rockstar Games said it needs "extra time to deliver at the level of quality [players] expect and deserve." [Hidden Content] "We are very sorry that this is later than you expected," the devs added. "The interest and excitement surrounding a new Grand Theft Auto has been truly humbling for our entire team." Although they didn't have a lot to say on this situation, the devs did end their statement by saying they're looking forward to sharing more information soon. This means we'll probably learn more about GTA 6 in the coming months leading up to its new official release date. This story is developing. We're updating it as we learn more information.

Working out how to join the Mages Guild in Oblivion is a worthwhile pursuit, even for players who don’t consider themselves major magic users.

With The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remasteredbringing players back to Cyrodiil and the Oblivion Crisis, it reintroduces the most pivotal event in Tamriel's Third Era, something that shakes the entire continent and leads to the many wars talked about in Skyrim. While the game itself only takes place in Cyrodiil, the capital of Tiber Septim's Empire, the Oblivion Crisis affected the entire continent. It was meant to be an invasion on all fronts with different places in Tamriel reacting differently, and while it can be argued Cyrodiil bore the brunt of the invasion, other countries suffered greatly.

If you’ve played The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion or its recently released Oblivion Remastered, you’ll know the opening tutorial section and its iconic 'leaving the Imperial sewers' moment well. You’ll also know all about that shocking death that arrives just before you make your final escape and, blinking, emerge into the beautiful open world of Cyrodiil. Warning! Spoilers for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered follow. The shocking death I’m talking about here is of course the assassination of Emperor Uriel Septim, an assassination he knows is coming and has come to terms with. Veteran fans have replayed Oblivion enough at this point to know it’s coming, too. But back in 2006 when Oblivion first came out, it became a rite of passage to try to save him from the inevitable Mythic Dawn backstab that kicks off the story. Hundreds of arrow shots later and players soon discovered that there was nothing that could be done to save poor old Septim, not without tinkering with the game with mods or console commands. Oblivion only really makes sense if the Emperor dies at the beginning, so it stands to reason that the developers at Bethesda forced it to happen no matter what the player did to try to stop it. And now, 20 years later, a new generation of Oblivion fans is trying to save the Emperor, and by that I mean trying and failing in much the same way. Players are waiting, bow and arrow primed, for the assassin to emerge from the shadows in a bid to kill him before he stabs the Emperor, but alas, it is no good. @_elderscroller A new generation must close shut the Jaws of Oblivion! #oblivionremaster #oblivionremastered #obliviongameplay #oblivionclips #oblivion #obliviontok #obliviontiktok #skyrimtok #skyrimtiktok #elderscrollsoblivion #fyp ♬ original sound - ElderScroller blockquote.tiktok-embed[data-video-id='7498837496252370206'] { width: 325px; margin-left: 0; } blockquote.tiktok-embed iframe { border-radius: 8px; } Some newcomers to the game didn’t even know they were supposed to talk to the Emperor in the first place, and so ended up with a room full of dead assassins as the endless stream of Mythic Dawn goons emerged to battle the group. Others are seeking out their revenge on the Mythic Dawn, piling those corpses high. Failed to save the emperor byu/AttorneyDavis inoblivion .reddit-embed-wrapper iframe { margin-left: 0 !important; } Newcomers are also discovering that the assassins will just keep on coming if you don't talk to the Emperor. They won't stop. They can't stop. They are infinite.

I confess I also tried in Oblivion Remastered, just in case the developers added some new outcome to the game, but alas, the Emperor must die now, in 2025, just as he had to all those years ago. Meanwhile, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered players are warning newcomers to do Kvatch before the level scaling makes it an absolute nightmare. We’ve also got a report on a player who managed to escape the confines of Cyrodiil to explore Valenwood, Skyrim, and even Hammerfell, the rumored setting of The Elder Scrolls VI. And be sure to check out our comprehensive guide to everything you'll find in Oblivion Remastered, including an expansive Interactive Map, complete Walkthroughs for the Main Questline and every Guild Quest, How to Build the Perfect Character, Things to Do First, every PC Cheat Code, and much more.
