Have you heard the word 'masocore' before? It's a portmanteau of 'masochist' and 'hardcore', and it's what Team Ninja used to describe the first few games in the Nioh franchise.

Overwatch 2 had a problem. It's a problem a lot of live service games have, to be fair. It wasn't particularly exciting any more. It had a chance at launch a few years ago to excite people, to create a wave of momentum to surf thereafter, but it floundered, beset as it was with identity problems and a misguided obsession with PvE, which sounded lovely on paper but never really...

The Evercade consoles remain one of the most fascinating pieces of modern hardware on the market. Mainly aimed at collectors, but also welcoming enough so that younger gamers become interested in retro gaming, they blur the line between modern emulation and older original consoles. Now, the king of retro shooters is coming to them: Doom is invading yet another platform. Read more Read more ›

We're sure we'll be hearing a lot from The Pokémon Company this year, as the massive franchise is turning 30 this month and already announced a major spinoff in Pokopia. It's also reasonable to expect news on the next generation sooner rather than later, but first, Jigglypuff might show up at this year's Super Bowl. Yes, really. Read more Read more ›

The Nioh series isn't exactly known for its nuance: there is good and evil, strong and weak, and little in-between. From feuding clans to the machinations of political elites, this binary is at the heart of everything in Team Ninja's pseudo-historical canon. Nioh 3 takes this black-and-white worldview and applies it to the feuding Tokugawa brothers at the start of the Seventeenth Century. Your character, Takechiyo, is good: noble, just,... Read more ›
