Donkey Kong Bananza's Nintendo Direct is over, and with a slew of new information ahead of the game's launch on July 17, I'm curious if anyone here has changed their mind on the game, and if they will be picking it up either on launch or later on. It's been over 20 years since the last fully 3D Donkey Kong adventure, and it's definitely been a long time coming for any DK64 fans. The visuals, destructible environments, bosses, and transformations that were shown on the June 18 Direct only serve to show the amount of options and fun that can be had with this game. But are you planning to get it at all? As for me, it's a no-brainer if you own a Switch 2 to get this game, especially as it seems to be made by the Super Mario Odyssey team (even if that hasn't been confirmed as of yet). And is one of the biggest releases in an already stacked first-year calendar for the Switch 2. It feels like the perfect speedrun game as well, so I'm curious what speedrunners will get into when they pick it up. It's also great to see the whole gang back together with Dixie and Diddy Kong making their Switch 2 debuts, alongside a ton of familiar faces like Rambi. I'm also not a big fan of the 2D side-scroller games DK has had as late, and can't wait to get sunk into this massive adventure and try to find every Golden Banana in each level. Though I am curious about your thoughts as well, outside of the poll. Was there anything that stuck out in the Nintendo Direct that surprised you? I know the transformations came completely left-field and I was godsmacked by the direction the game was going. But some are already calling it a Game of the Year contender, even if that feels a bit of a stretch. Let me know in the comments below what you think!

The only thing than worse than not being played is being played and everyone complaining you're crammed with microtransactions. Admittedly, that's not quite how Oscar Wilde put it but a similar sentiment must be going through the heads of the developers of Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond. Despite boasting over 100,000 concurrent players, this Hearthstone-style CCG is racking up some seriously awful reviews on Steam. Read the rest of the story... View the full article

Rematch, the game about kicking it in the goal from Sifu and Absolver devs Sloclap, have launched today, June 19th. The folks behind it have rung in that occasion by outlining a bunch of their future plans, as well as saying they're very sorry you can't currently show off your mouse and keyboard skills by nutmegging some fool who owns one of those ex-boxers. Don't worry, though, crossplay and a bunch of other stuff are in the works for future updates to the foot-to-ball thing Nic and James dug the beta of, and that currently sits fourth in Steam's top sellers list.

Fan-favorite rhythm game Beat Saber is ending support for PlayStation consoles. From here on in, you shouldn't expect any further updates or music packs if you play on PS4 or PS5, and from January 21, 2026, multiplayer support will also be withdrawn. "As we look to the future and plan the next big leap for Beat Saber, we have made the decision to no longer release updates for PS4 and PS5 starting in June 2025," the developer explained in a new FAQ entitled "End of Support for PS4/PS5" (thanks, Eurogamer). "Our passion for VR remains unwavering. We are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead and what we can bring to Beat Saber fans who have been on this journey with us over the past [seven] years." The update stressed that you will still be able to play Beat Saber and have access to all of your previously purchased content, and cross-buy "remains active" between the PS4 and PS5 base game. You can also still buy songs and music packs that were released on or before June 18 — just nothing added to the catalog from today (June 19) onwards. "We're grateful for the incredible support you've shown us over the years, and we're excited to share what the future holds for Beat Saber," the update concluded. For many players, this feels very much like the final nail in the coffin for PlayStation's VR aspirations, as Beat Saber is still one of PlayStation's biggest VR titles. Fans seem split between laying the blame with Sony and the lack of support its given to its VR headset, and Meta "wanting their game to be the best on Quest." "Absolutely baffling decision," said one player on the subreddit. "Beat Saber still regularly tops the sales charts on PSVR1 and 2, I think dropping support for PSVR1 is understandable but not supporting PSVR2 feels like an absolutely insane move given how popular the game is on that platform." "This is a massively stupid f***ing decision," added another. "I can't overstate how mad I am about this." Despite its impressive technical specs, the PSVR2 seemingly lost momentum following its release in 2023. In June last year, Android Central reported that Sony made "deep cuts to funding for VR," with only two first-party PSVR2 games allegedly in development. Sony eventually gave PSVR2 a new lease on life by adding PC VR support, but mentions of the device have been few and far between since. PSVR2 recently dropped to match its all-time low price thanks to the PlayStation Days of Play *****. "The PlayStation VR2 may seem pricey, given that it costs $150 more than the base PS5 Digital Edition console you’ll need to use it," we wrote when we reviewed the PSVR2 on release. "Even so, it’s such a quantum leap over the original PSVR in terms of ease of use, visual quality, and immersion that any PlayStation owner who loves VR should upgrade as soon as possible. "Its 4K HDR OLED screen and excellently tactile Sense controllers are the most obvious improvement, but plentiful quality-of-life changes and the raw horsepower of the PS5 set a new standard for how VR games should play and feel on console. The downside is that, like any new platform, its thin launch lineup makes its lack of backward compatibility with original PSVR games a significant problem, but one that will only improve as Sony and other developers roll out new games that take advantage of the PSVR2’s unique features."

Sloclap's first sports title, Rematch, does not support crossplay on day one as many had hoped, but the studio has emphasized that it is a priority for devs moving forward. The online multiplayer soccer sim seems like a natural fit for crossplay functionality, and Sloclap did hope to enable it at launch, but things didn't end up that way. While this has left some fans disappointed, the team behind Rematch has assured them that the much-requested feature is coming. View the full article

Ara: History Untold is a game I briefly gave a go last year, back when Civ 7 was still a game we were all yet to play and have a vast slew of different opinions about. I thought the little I played was alright, but didn't stick with it that long, slipping back into the pair of comfy slippers that were Civ 6. Now, though, Ara's just gotten a big update, and it looks like it should solve some of the issues that folks flagged with the base game. Read more View the full article
