  1. Hot off the conclusion of Andor’s incredible Rebel Alliance origin story, fans have been clamoring for a great Star Wars game to play. The most unlikely candidate of all is now filling the void: Star Wars: Battlefront 2. Once a lightning rod for controversy around pay-to-win loot boxes that escalated all the way from… Read more...

  2. Cyberpunk 2077 has come a very long way since its troublesome 2020 launch and has earned itself a place as one of gaming’s most beloved titles. As such, it makes sense that Nintendo would finally want to get in on the fun with Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition for Nintendo Switch 2, which includes new features like… Read more...

  3. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is easily one of gaming’s most beloved entries in an equally beloved franchise, so it makes sense that Nintendo would want to revamp it for the release of the Nintendo Switch 2. With better visuals, performance, and more, this upgraded version can make this adventure feel fresh… Read more... View the full article
  4. Sometimes, an infectious digital virus can be a good thing, like when your brainrot spreads to all your friends’ video game consoles and they finally play a game you’ve been yelling about for a decade. Last week, after the previews went up for Digimon Story: Time Stranger, I looked on my shelf for my copy of Digimon… Read more... View the full article
  5. Whether you’re hunting in a link party or celebrating in the grand hub, Monster Hunter Wilds pushes you to join forces with other players. However, that might not always be your preference. Sometimes you want to play with those who are a bit more predictable and relaxed—and less “real.” Read more... View the full article
  6. Things are going from bad to worse for Build A Rocket Boy. The studio founded by former Grand Theft Auto producer Leslie Benzies is reportedly facing a mass layoff of over 100 employees after MindsEye launched to become the worst-rated game of 2025. Despite rushed hotfixes to address performance issues, some players… Read more... View the full article
  7. Nintendo has become increasingly draconian in its efforts to prevent piracy, most recently adding words to its EULA that claim it has the right to brick your console if it doesn’t like what you use it for. And following the release of the Switch 2, the Japanese company isn’t holding back: many new console owners have… Read more... View the full article
  8. Death Stranding 2: On The Beach assumes two things about anyone jumping into Hideo Kojima’s new cinematic post-apocalyptic open-world delivery sim...err, sorry, I mean strand-type game. One: It assumes you have played the first game and (mostly) understood what happened. And two: It assumes you liked all of that and… Read more... View the full article
  9. CD Projekt Red’s Cyberpunk 2077 has made the leap to Switch 2 in a very impressive port. If you’re just now playing it for the first time, you may find the sheer number of gigs and side jobs cluttering up your map downright overwhelming, but don’t worry; we’re here to help you find the cream of the crop. We’ve also… Read more... View the full article
  10. This week, Donkey Kong Bananza knocked our collective socks off in a very strong Nintendo Direct dedicated to the Switch 2's next big exclusive, and Marathon, the next big game from Destiny maker Bungie, was delayed in the wake of an alpha earlier this year that left many players underwhelmed. Also, the most famous… Read more... View the full article
  11. Yes, it is officially summer as per the magical calendar. Blessed Litha to all who celebrate. You might have some fun stuff lined up given that the weather is…well, at least here in New York it’s not terrible—yet. So maybe you want to go outside. Maybe you want to stay in? Either way, if you want to get some gaming in… Read more... View the full article
  12. Playing in Mirror Mode is like racing on every Mario Kart course’s slightly weirder twin, and it’s back again in Mario Kart World. If you’ve already memorized every twist and turn of the game’s courses and are looking for an extra challenge, flipping their layouts via Mirror Mode might spice up your gameplay—it just… Read more...

  13. You wake up at 1 am to score a pre-order. You put yourself in manageable debt to finance it. You confirm the card on file is valid when it ships. You stay home to make sure UPS doesn’t drop the package down an open manhole instead of your door. You make sure nobody stapled the ******** receipt to the screen that’s… Read more...

  14. When I first heard about the actually real product Sprite + Tea, I was intrigued. I like tea. I like Sprite. In fact, I’d go as far as to say Sprite is one of my favorite soft drinks. But would this odd combo work? Would it be my new favorite drink on a hot Summer day? No. It sucks. Read more... View the full article
  15. The Nintendo Switch 2 has finally launched, along with the brand-new Mario Kart World. There are a lot of fresh mechanics to learn in this latest entry, but some returning features unfortunately don’t have any proper clarification. Two great examples of this are Smart Steering and Auto-Accelerate. No worries if you’re… Read more... View the full article
  16. Magic: The Gathering’s Beyond Universes crossover with Final Fantasy offers a beautiful trip down memory lane with some really cool Commander cards and deck synergies to boot. It has also made everyone lose their minds as the best-selling expansion in the card game’s history sees prices skyrocket, including one… Read more... View the full article
  17. Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army is Atlus remaster of the classic 2006 PS2 game for modern consoles. With a complete battle system overhaul and fantastic quality-of-life features like fast travel and no more random encounters, Raidou Remastered is a much smoother adventure than it was almost 20… Read more...

  18. Nintendo has a history of packing in tutorial games with some of their hardware, so players were reasonably frustrated to find that Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour would run them $10. But while this tutorial-focused title should’ve probably just been included with the Nintendo Switch 2, it may still be worth buying for… Read more... View the full article
  19. If you’re a fan of previous Funcom titles, such as Conan Exiles, then you know the lore, while interesting in small doses, isn’t the focal point. It’s just the flavoring helping you immerse yourself in the sprawling landscape. In Dune Awakening, the story takes a high seat at the table, but it’s still not the center… Read more...

  20. Many Elden Ring Nightreign players, myself included, thought they were finally ready to call it quits on FromSoftware’s multiplayer roguelike boss-raid generator. We defeated the Night Aspect. Maybe we even finished every achievement. It was time to walk away. Then, out of nowhere, the studio dropped its toughest boss… Read more... View the full article
  21. Newspapers have offered puzzles in some capacity for as long as anyone can remember, with crosswords being the most renowned. But when TheNew York Times bought Wordle at the start of 2022, things shifted up a gear. Only earlier this week, The Atlantic magazine announced it was launching daily challenges, and… Read more...

  22. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 will include some of the original songs found in the original PS2-era skating games. But not everything is making the leap to the remaster, including one Alien Ant Farm song, a move the band understands, but still called a “bummer” in a recent interview. Read more...

  23. A console launch doesn’t make or break a system, but it’s still important. A fumbled launch can paint a system as the “loser” of a generation, while a strong one can write its name in the stars. Sometimes you don’t even need an incredible launch line-up; you just need one standout game that gets people to show up in… Read more... View the full article
  24. Stellar Blade is a mashup of classic arcade action and modern Soulslike about a defense force officer with big ***** and an even ******* **** saving the post-apocalyptic ruins of Earth from the aliens who destroyed it. Paradise lost? Not for the gooners, or for general fans of fun combat in cool sci-fi settings held… Read more... View the full article
  25. Magic: The Gathering’s Final Fantasy collaboration is an exciting opportunity for fans of the video game franchise to jump into the classic trading card game for the first time. There are a wide range of new cards in this cool crossover, but one of the most exciting is the Pre-Constructed Commander Decks made for the… Read more... View the full article
