If extraction shooters are games in which you duck out of the fray between matches to look at what you just collected, I guess I'm almost playing Marathon the right way.

When 2025 wrapped up, Obsidian's open-world fantasy RPG Avowed had been overlooked on many end-of-year lists. Despite garnering favourable reviews overall and delivering a type of Elder Scrolls-inspired experience that stands on its own, it wasn't a massive hit. Later, The Outer Worlds 2 landed with similar results. Meanwhile, the mostly continuist survival crafting adventure Grounded 2 was enjoying lots of success. Read more Read more ›

As good as Arc Raiders' first 2026 roadmap looks, one of the latest crazes in the online extraction shooter has nothing to do with hunting down other players or banding together against the oppressive robotic threat. People are collecting rubber ducks, lots of them. Read more Read more ›

Under a year ago, I purchased a Virtual Boy. I did so for two reasons: the first was to fill a curious little gap in my video game collection. The second and main reason was in service of a stupid joke: Nintendo had told us that there'd be no Switch 2 consoles for media ahead of launch day, and so in order to have a 'day one review', I decided...

Romeo is a Dead Man is nearly here at last, bringing the world another hyper-violent action game with a quirky hero and out-of-this-world narrative. It stands as the latest work from the collective minds of Suda 51 and his peers at Netease-owned Grasshopper Games, emitting that same strong Suda-signal as beloved prior works like No More Heroes or Killer is Dead.
