Back in February 2020, when Diablo 4 was still a glimmer in Lilith's eye, Path of Exile 2 was just beginning to surface as an idea, and Last Epoch was but a newborn ***** looking to find its feet in the initial throes of early access, Wolcen looked to be the big new **** on the block. An ARPG with no class restrictions and a beautiful world to explore, it showed a lot of early promise. But bugs, technical troubles, and balance woes left the newcomer in a rough spot that it never recovered from, and now it appears the curtain call has finally come. Read the rest of the story...

While many players flock back to the game, the Multiversus relaunch has been a rocky one. Many features from the beta are straight-up missing, and some changes have been met with derision. The platform fighter filled with Warner Bros. IP controls well, and shows a lot of promise, but this return hasn't been without issue. Now though, it looks like many, if not all, of those beta features we're missing will be added back to the game at some point. Read the rest of the story...

There’s no zombie-like resurrection coming: on Friday, Jeff Ross, the game director of Days Gone, revealed that a sequel would never be forthcoming as the publishers, Sony, were never truly “fans” of the franchise. In his post on X (formerly Twitter), Ross explained that Days Gone’s discontinuation was a ‘purely portfolio-based’ decision. With the success of The Last of Us, a legendary zombie-themed hit, Sony felt that another game in the same genre was unnecessary. “They already had a zombie game, so why would they need the lesser-performing title.” he further explained.

All of you MultiVersus players have probably noticed some features are missing, but Player First Games are planning on bringing them back. Last week, after a year-long hiatus, MultiVersus finally had its full launch and has received a mix of responses. Our own Dom is feeling divided on it, even if they are enjoying the core gameplay, and many other players haven't exactly been thrilled about some of the choices that have been made. Notably, the strange decision to omit certain features that were present in the game, like match stats, team colours, and several other features too. The decision to outright temporarily shut MultiVersus down for a year was already a controversial decision, so coming back with less features, particularly important staples of platform fighters like those, obviously feels like an odd decision. Player First Games is very aware of this feedback, though, as game director Tony Huynh recently took to Twitter to acknowledge the lack of these features, and what the plans are for the game going forward. "Thank you for the feedback! The team is hard at work on it. Some of the missing settings and features from the open beta are incoming: team colors, end-of-game stats, swapping side and neutral attacks, adjustable input buffer settings, etc," wrote Huynh. "More info soon!" Read more View the full article

Now, Selaco appears to be the latest gem among nostalgia-driven first-person shooters on Steam to evoke the same gunfight thrill as the original ***** games. View the full article

G-Assist is a real tech demo from Nvidia. | Image: Nvidia When Nvidia first announced G-Assist it was an April Fools’ prank in 2017 that joked about an AI assistant being able to help you play a game while you ran to the door for your pizza delivery.

With recent success stories such as Palworld, Abiotic Factor, Enshrouded, and V Rising, there's been plenty of competition of late to the biggest survival games on Steam - Rust, Valheim, Ark, Sons of the Forest, and so on. All of which is to say that it's an increasingly crowded space to muscle into. Yet colossal contender Soulmask appears to have just done that, breaking through to the top of the global Steam bestseller list and doing so while holding a positive Steam review score - often an early stumbling block for new games due to potential launch issues.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom music lovers, I'm sorry to say that the game's CD boxset is a ridiculously expensive £230. Last month, a suite of cool Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom merch items were announced by the official ********* Zelda Twitter account, with one of the most exciting being a massive boxset containing the game's entire soundtrack. It's obviously going to be quite the piece to have in any Zelda lover's collection, and a great way to listen to the soundtrack for those of you out there that hate having to rely on streaming services. A few weeks later and it's now available to pre-order on Amazon (thanks, Eurogamer), but uh, there's only one problem - it costs a ridiculously high £230. Now, admittedly, there's a whole lot of music here. As mentioned in the product description, there's a total of "344 songs on 9 CDs, including songs from the game and songs used in trailers," the total recording time amounting to around 11 hours. That is a whole lot of soundtrack, an amount so large you can't help but think to yourself "hang on, is there even that much music in the game?" The answer is obviously yes, but it's still surprising nonetheless. Read more View the full article
It's not like it was hard to deny that Valve is working on a game called Deadlock before, but now that it's trademarked the name, it's extra impossible. All of you Valve fans are likely already aware of its next game on the docket, which is currently poised to be a steampunk fantasy hero shooter called Deadlock. You've probably seen the leaks by now too, which shows the game in an unfinished state, though it has also given everyone a look at its strong character designs. The game is supposedly being playtested right now, but Valve is yet to actually confirm its existence. Well, yet to confirm it publicly anyway, as it kind of did so thanks to a recent trademark filing of the game's name (as spotted by Gabe Follower, thanks PC Gamer). The trademark was filed on May 30, earlier this week, and is intended to cover various categories like "entertainment services… providing online video games; provision of on-line entertainment, namely, on-line computer games; entertainment services, namely, providing on-line computer games and on-line video games," as well as things like "competitions relating to video games" and "video game education" so it sounds like Valve possibly has some eSports plans for its upcoming shooter.

Toys For Bob might no longer be owned by Activision, and subsequently Microsoft, but it is partnering with Xbox on its next game. Back in March, Toys For Bob announced that it was going independent, freeing itself from being subjected to working on Call of Duty games. Later that month there was a report that the studio had, ironically, signed a deal with Microsoft for its next game, the very same company it was no longer owned by. Now, via its official Twitter account, Toys For Bob has confirmed that a publishing deal has been signed between it and Xbox, though didn't have too much else to say. "We're excited to announce that we'll be partnering with Xbox to publish our next new game," reads the post. "We're still very early in development, so you might not hear from us for a bit - but know that we're working hard on an experience we're so sooo inspired about! Can't wait to share more." You can see the tweet above for yourself, and you might notice that it's looking particularly purple. Unsurprisingly, this has quickly prompted fans to speculate that Toys For Bob is hinting at a new Spyro title, something many have been hoping for for a number of years now. Toys For Bob notably developed the Skylanders series when those were still a thing, later going on to make the Spyro Reignited Trilogy too, setting them up in a strong position to make a new Spyro game. Partnering with Xbox would obviously be a necessary step too, as the console maker is now the rights owner to the Spyro series since acquiring Activision. Read more View the full article

A new look at the upcoming Tomb Raider anime is here, and Netflix has even confirmed when you can finally watch it. Netflix announced it was working on an anime adaptation of the Tomb Raider series way back in 2021, and finally today it confirmed that the series will be arriving on the streaming service October 10, later this year. Titled Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft, the show is actually set after the events of Crystal Dynamics' Survivor Trilogy, i.e. Tomb Raider, Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Despite supposedly taking place in the same world as Crystal Dynamics' Tomb Raider games, series protagonist Lara Croft will not be voiced by Camilla Luddington, but will instead be played by Hayley Atwell, best known for her role as Peggy Carter in the MCU. Though, Earl Baylon is reprising his role as Jonah Maiava from the game, so Atwell's casting definitely feels a bit like a push from Netflix to attach a big star to the series. Netflix also provided a plot description for the series: "Following the events of the Survivor series, Lara Croft has abandoned her friends to embark on increasingly more perilous solo adventures. But she must return home when a dangerous and powerful ******** artefact is stolen from Croft Manor by a thief with an uncanny personal connection. Her daring pursuit will take her on an adventure around the world and to the depths of forgotten tombs, where she will be forced to confront her true self, and decide just what kind of hero she wants to become."
