Swedish video game publishers Thunderful are selling some steam, which is terrific news for those of us who don't live near saunas and are thus cruelly deprived of their widely-accepted health and wellness benefits, which date all the way back to the ancient Mayans. Oh wait, I read the press release wrong. Thunderful are actually having a Steam *****, with up to 90% off such well-regarded games as Laika: Aged Through Blood, Swordship, Viewfinder and, just to confuse me further, several SteamWorld games.

Image: Roblox Roblox is facing accusations that it lied to investors about the number of people who use the platform. In a report published on Tuesday, the investment firm Hindenburg Research claims Roblox is “consistently overstating the amount of people on its platform by 25 percent to 42 percent or more.” Roblox, which went public in 2021, reported having 79.5 million daily active users in its most recent earnings report. However, Hindenburg claims Roblox “intentionally conflates” actual people with daily users, as that number could also include alt accounts and bots. The research alleges that Roblox can separate alt accounts from single users, even though the company’s disclosure says daily active users “are not a measure of unique individuals...

Call of Duty is more than just a multiplayer shooter, and there’s no better example than the campaign storyline of the ****** Ops franchise. With ****** Ops 6 on the way, Activision has posted a video detailing “the story so far” in the ****** Ops campaigns. It’s quite a truncated recap, but worth watching nonetheless to re-live some of the moments from ****** Ops, ****** Ops 2, and ****** Ops Cold War, leading up to BO6’s campaign that takes place in 1991.

The one-year anniversary of Cities Skylines 2 is just around the corner on Thursday October 24, and - while there have certainly been improvements - the Colossal Order city builder is still struggling to win over fans. Despite strong foundations and some notable updates, we've yet to see a return to the best-in-class form established by its predecessor. Speaking with CS2 publisher Paradox Interactive's deputy CEO Mattias Lilja and chief creative officer Henrik Fåhraeus, I ask what went wrong, and if they're worried about competition.

It's been a tough couple of years for Paradox Interactive. Since the triumphant launch of Crusader Kings 3 in 2020, the strategy game specialists have struggled to land a hit. New forays into other genres such as Lamplighters League, Millennia, and Life By You have fallen short of expectations - with the latter canceled entirely as it neared launch. Cities Skylines 2 has yet to match up to its mighty predecessor. Even in the grand strategy space it knows best, Age of Wonders 4's success sits alongside the underwhelming beginning for Victoria 3. As Paradox looks to right the ship, I sit down with deputy CEO Mattias Lilja and chief creative officer Henrik Fåhraeus to ask what went wrong, and what the team has learned.

Civilization's whistle-stop tour of human history, *********'s Creed's flawless capture of long-lost cities, and even the realistic Old West of Red ***** Redemption 2.

Sony Santa Monica’s **** of War Ragnarok will indeed get a PS5 Pro Enhanced update after the first-party PlayStation Studios game skipped the announcement of the $700 mid-gen upgrade. Push Square spotted the PlayStation Store listing for **** of War Ragnarok now includes the 'PS5 Pro Enhanced' label. Neither Sony nor Sony Santa Monica have announced the game's PS5 Pro support yet, and there’s no detail on what it will involve, but of course the hope is Ragnarok's resolution will be boosted while maintaining 60 frames per second. **** of War Ragnarok joins the likes of Blizzard’s Diablo 4 in a list of over 60 games with confirmed PS5 Pro Enhanced updates, according to eagle-eyed fans who’ve been keeping an eye on the PlayStation Store (IGN has a list of all the PS5 Pro Enhanced games so far). PS5 Pro has an AI-powered upscaling feature called PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) that can automatically improve the image clarity of games, but PS5 Pro Enhanced games take particular advantage of the beefier console’s features. At a recent PS5 Pro preview event, we spoke with the technical leads of some of PlayStation’s biggest games, including Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and The Last of Us Part 2, to discuss the improvements we can expect to see now there’s a more powerful PS5 on the market. In an interview with IGN, Saber Interactive Chief Creative Officer Tim Willits said he’s hopeful the PS5 Pro will improve Space Marine 2 by default via PSSR, but did not confirm a PS5 Pro Enhanced patch. PS5 Pro itself launches November 7. Just days after **** of War Ragnarok launched on PC to a ‘mixed’ Steam user review rating over its forced PlayStation Network account linking, a mod was released that bypassed the requirement entirely. The creator of the mod eventually pulled it offline out of ***** of reprisal from Sony. The PC port includes the long sought after ability to tone down puzzle hints from companions. Sony has said this will soon to be added to the console version, but we don't have a release date yet. Perhaps it will arrive alongside the PS5 Pro Enhanced update. Though **** of War Ragnarok met with critical and commercial acclaim, selling a whopping 11 million copies in less than three months on ***** and earning a 10/10 in IGN's review, one gripe players had was with the companions throwing out puzzle solutions before players had a chance to solve them.

Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, the next game from Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio, was originally a concept called Like a Dragon: Tuna where original protagonist Kiryu Kazuma was a fighting fisherman. RGG Studio director Masayoshi Yokoyama revealed the origins in a PlayStation Blog post discussing Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii ahead of its February 28 release date. The game stars the fan favorite Majima Goro as he wakes up on a beach with no memory and, in a sea-faring alternative to his yakuza roots, becomes a pirate. It wasn't originally going to star Majima at all, however. "For quite some time, I wanted to make a game called Like a Dragon: Tuna, where Kiryu Kazuma, as a tuna fisherman, sets off to sea to ****** against fishing boats," Yokoyama said. "Long story short, it never came to fruition, but keywords like 'ship,' 'sea,' and 'fighting,' which had since then been engraved in my head, evolved into the concept of pirates." Kiryu has had plenty of fishy experience over the years through the myriad fishing minigames sprinkled throughout the Yakuza/Like a Dragon series. He's also resorted to beating the rowdier ones up with his fists, like in the shark boss ****** from Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth that's practically the end of Jaws. Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is a spin-off to Infinite Wealth, the eighth mainline entry in the Yakuza series (or ninth including Yakuza 0). The series underwent a name change from Yakuza to Like a Dragon upon its release, made more confusing by the seventh game being called Yakuza: Like a Dragon and starring new protagonist Ichiban Kasuga. Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii grew into its own thing during the development of the latest game, however. "Around June or July 2023, long before the release of Infinite Wealth, the dev team was already mulling over the idea of an Infinite Wealth spin-off," Yokoyama said. "Even if we were to make Like a Dragon 9, we knew that wouldn’t be enough to capture and tell the story. During the end of the Infinite Wealth development, we began percolating the idea of a spin-off that stars characters who are not Ichiban Kasuga. It was almost as if we were creating a blown-up sub-story for Infinite Wealth." Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii was revealed in September as a half Yakuza, half *********'s Creed 4: ****** Flag-looking entry. A lengthy reveal trailer showed Majima washed up on the beach of Rich Island, near Hawaii, looking worse for wear and helped by a child with a **** tiger (who is bizarrely played by Ichiban voice actor Nakaya Kazuhiro). This will be the first time in a while Yakuza fans have had to wait an entire year for a new release, with Infinite Wealth having arrived in January and Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii not launching until February. While this is fairly normal for most game franchises, RGG Studio is known for its rapid release schedule. In the last five years, for example, it has released Yakuza 4 Remastered, Yakuza 5 Remastered, Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Judgment Remastered, Lost Judgment, Like a Dragon: Ishin, Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name, and Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, alongside three Super Monkey Ball Games and an enhanced remaster of Virtua Fighter 5. That's 12 games in total. Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii will therefore add to that list, but the next mainline game (and a mysterious trademark called Yakuza Wars) are yet to be revealed. In our first preview of the incoming entry, IGN said: "Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is ship-shaping up to be a seaworthy spin-off with a fin-favorite at its helm." Ryan Dinsdale is an IGN freelance reporter. He'll talk about The Witcher all day. View the full article

While Goku is Dragon Ball’s main character, it’s arguable that his son Gohan has the most character development in all of Dragon Ball Z, and that’s something Dragon Ball Sparking Zero examines more closely in his branching paths. There are fewer overall levels in Gohan’s campaign in the Episode Battle mode compared to some other characters in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero. The good news is that unlocking Gohan’s side missions only requires you to excel in combat, rather than the convoluted method of getting one of Vegeta’s branching paths or the choices you need to make in Goku’s side stories.
