Path of Exile 2 developer Grinding Gear Games had previously and optimistically said a 1.0 full release might happen this year. GGG gave it a 65 percent chance of happening when I spoke with the studio in March. But those ambitions have now been ruled out. Read more Read more ›

As well as a see-through 720Hz tandem OLED gaming monitor, Asus unveiled a retro-looking graphics card that draws up to 800W - a massive 200W jump over the most powerful RTX 5090 models and 215W over the base spec. A single 16-pin power cable maxes out at 600W, so the ROG Matrix uses both the proprietary BTF connector built into Asus motherboards and the regular 16-pin power input. That should... Read more ›

Gamescom Opening Night Live was packed full of new game reveals as is tradition, one of the fancier looking ones surely being the new cinematic for World of Warcraft's Midnight expansion. Blizzard cinematics are always fantastic, the team responsible for them having seemingly made a pact with eldritch forces to maintain a level of quality one would think insurmountable.

At this point, it's almost tradition that Gamescom Opening Night Live draws to a close with a collective sigh. Again I send my prayers to the stars that the OmniGeoff may one day concede - and this goes for the equally interminable likes of Summer Game Fest and The Game Awards - that shorter, more focused is always better. Imagine the sustained enthusiasm you could generate without all that flaccid,... Read more ›

Asus just revealed two new tandem OLED monitors at an event adjacent to Gamescom 2025, including a flagship model that's able to hit a blistering 720Hz (!) - at a reduced resolution of 1080p - or a still-scintillating 540Hz at its normal resolution of 1440p. A 1000Hz OLED has long been the goal for display enthusiasts, and by that metric we're now the majority of the way there. Read more Read more ›

Months after they were first revealed, Microsoft and Asus are letting the paying public have a chance to test out their new Xbox ROG Ally and Xbox ROG Ally X handhelds here at Gamescom. The two firms are also marking the show by finally announcing an "on shelf" retail release date: October 16th. Read more Read more ›

Games events are always packed with a shed load of marketing bluster. Companies figure out the most impressive way to showcase their wares and then, well, deploy that. Some of that is more strait-laced; other times the truth is stretched. Read more Read more ›

There's so much I like about Blood of the Dawnwalker. It turned my head earlier in the summer when a debut gameplay trailer was released, and my head is still firmly turned - spun like Linda Blair's in The Exorcist - now that I've watched a gamescom presentation for it. It's part Witcher, part Vampire, part Kingdom Come, and if the modest Polish team can deliver what it's promising, Blood... Read more ›

Of all the announcements at last night's gamescom Opening Night Live, it was an announcement of an announcement that stole the show: Hollow Knight Silksong is real, and a full reveal is set for later this week. Read more Read more ›

Jack and Marguerite Baker in Resident Evil 7. Lady Dimitrescu in Resident Evil 8. Mr. X in the Resident Evil 2 Remake. Nemesis in the Resident Evil 3 Remake. You'd think after four games, the formula would be getting a bit rote, a bit boring. You're a (somewhat) powerless survivor whisked out of your comfort zone, and something supernatural and evil is trying to kill you. Rinse, repeat, right? But... Read more ›

Way back in 2016, I downloaded and played the first Nioh public alpha. Team Ninja, the veteran action game developers behind Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive, working on a game that took inspiration from Dark Souls, was too much of a perfect idea to ignore. Within 10 minutes of playing that alpha - which was so bastard hard the devs had to tune down the difficulty for the next... Read more ›

High on Life 2, the sequel to the crude and comedic FPS from Squanch Games, is set to release on 13th February, 2026, it's been revealed on Xbox Wire. Read more Read more ›

Hornets are generally considered pests because of how aggressive they are. Their stings are more dangerous than those of bees, and as a genus they are generally considered some of the most vicious insects out there. Their stings can kill (and about 62 deaths a year are attributed to hornets in the US alone). Makes sense that you'd use one for a video game protagonist then. Read more Read more ›

Nvidia has announced a huge raft of changes and improvements to their GeForce Now cloud gaming service as part of their Gamescom 2025 announcements, but it's actually one of the smallest sections that has me most excited. Read more Read more ›

The last time I wrote a full review of a Dawn of War game I started throwing around terms like "a prima facie truth". Admittedly I was trying to be ironic - it was about how fun it is to smash big mechs into each other! - but also admittedly, there is something about this series that just makes me get a bit over-excited. The original Dawn of War, which... Read more ›
