Ready for more announcements? State of Play, Sony's own version of the Nintendo Direct, returns tonight at 10pm UK time. If you're over the pond that's 5pm Eastern, or 2pm Pacific. Today's State of Play is focused on "previously announced games coming to PlayStation consoles", including PlayStation VR2, Sony said yesterday - so don't expect any big new reveals. Specifically, these will be for third-party games - so don't plan... Read more ›

In the wake of its hugely controversial engine pricing changes, Unity has closed a number of its offices over what it has called a "potential threat". News of the temporary closures first began circulating earlier today as Unity employees shared the news on social media. "Hey y'all, just a reminder to think before you target Unity employees," senior XR product designer Javier Busto wrote. "This morning we learned that law... Read more ›

A game developer has to be pretty brave to attempt a Soulslike, I feel. Just the fact that they’re still called Soulslikes, nearly a decade and a half on (and surely longer than it took for "Doom clones" to turn into first-person shooters), is probably a sign. FromSoftware just keeps banging out top notch examples of a genre they created, and follow-ups, in Bloodborne, Sekiro and Elden Ring, that all... Read more ›

A fresh report into Unity's hugely-controversial decision to start charging developers when their games are downloaded has thrown fresh light on the situation. MobileGamer sources say Unity has already offered some studios a 100% fee waiver - if they switch over to Unity's own LevelPlay ad platform. The report quotes industry consultants that say this move is an "attempt to destroy" Unity's main competitior in this field: AppLovin. Read more Read more ›

Today's Nintendo Direct was one for the Nintendo faithful, with remakes and remasters from classic franchises aplenty - and a star turn for Princess Peach. The Direct's line-up, including an F-Zero 99 announcement, and big finale, a port of the beloved Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door, were fan-pleasing additions to the Switch's bulging catalogue. And they are perhaps the kind of smaller announcements we'd expect at this point, for... Read more ›

Nintendo's previously announced Luigi's Mansion 2 spruce-up - which it's now officially calling Luigi's Mansion 2 HD - is set to launch for Switch next "summer". A enhanced version of Luigi's Mansion 2 (originally titled Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon when it launched for 3DS back in 2013) was initially unveiled in June, but today's Nintendo Direct offered a substantially longer look at its spooky ghost-hoovering action. The twist in Luigi's... Read more ›

I've been really excited to play Wargroove 2 because I liked the original game, but I wanted to love it. It was a blend of Advance Wars and early Fire Emblem games, a turn-based tactics affair that saw you spreading out across dinky grid-based maps, gathering resources, turning them into units and exploring the dense rock-paper-scissors potential of the various ensuing matchups. It was a loving and thoughtful thing, but... Read more ›

A visually enhanced remake of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is heading to Switch next year. Announced at today's Nintendo Direct as the final reveal, this will be a spruced up version of the GameCube classic - and best game in the Paper Mario series. Originally released in 2004, it continues the paper origami style of the first N64 game but with new abilities and an expansive story. Read more Read more ›

Nintendo's wonderful (if upsettingly short-lived) Another Code series is making a return, arriving on Switch as two-game bundle on 19th January next year. Another Code Recollection, as this new version is officially known, features a shiny new remake of Another Code: Two Memories (known as Trace Memory in the US), which launched for Nintendo DS back in 2005. Here, players take on the role of 13-year old Ashley Mizuki Robbins,... Read more ›

The long-awaited return of F-Zero is finally upon us, but as a battle royale. F-Zero 99 is available now as an exclusive for Switch Online members. Similarly to Tetris 99 and Super Mario 99, F-Zero will see 99 players racing together on the same track. Read more Read more ›

At today's Nintendo Direct, further details were revealed about the forthcoming Princess Peach game for Switch. Called Princess Peach: Showtime!, it has a theatrical theme as Peach must save the Sparkle Theatre from an evil witch. To do that she'll team up with its guardian ribbon Stella to defeat enemies and play dress up. Read more Read more ›

Mario vs. Donkey Kong, Nintendo's infrequent platform-puzzle series, is making its way to Switch next February. Based on its Nintendo Direct reveal, Mario vs. Donkey appears to be a remake of the 2004 Game Boy Advance original (Nintendo referred to this Switch release as an 'updated' version), and will once again see Mario puzzling his way across various puzzle-based platform stages to rescue the mini-Marios. The goal each level is... Read more ›

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is arguably one of the most visually impressive console games this generation. Marrying extremely high-quality assets with excellent lighting and filmic post-processing, it's easily the best that Star Wars has looked in the realm of real-time rendering - but the game was let down by a few key faults. The good news is that the recently released patch addresses a lot of our concerns and the... Read more ›

Developer Drop Bear Bytes has announced its post-apocalyptic RPG Broken Roads will be out on 14th November. We got our first look at Broken Roads a couple of years ago, when it was aiming for a 2022 release. The game's launch was pushed back a year, during which Drop Bear Bytes partnered with publisher Versus Evil. Inspired by classic single-player CRPGs, Broken Roads follows a group of companions as they... Read more ›

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet's first DLC is here - and it's full of bugs. The Pokémon Company released The Teal Mask yesterday, which will be followed by The Indigo Disk. Collectively they're known as The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero. However, just as with the base games, players are already discovering a myriad of issues, some of which seem eerily familiar.

Slay the Spire studio Mega Crit has said it will cut ties with Unity if it does not "completely revert" plans to charge developers when their games are downloaded. Mega Crit pledged to ditch Unity as the engine for its next game - a project it has already poured two years of work into - if Unity does not back down over its hugely unpopular decision. "Despite the immense amount... Read more ›

Starfield does not begin well. You start this game of space and exploration in an elevator, trundling down through walls of rock to a subterranean mining tunnel. In this one early place Bethesda always likes to keep things tightly coordinated, characters delivering their programmed line of dialogue to you without looking up from their job as rock-shooter and drill-watcher. It's all so precisely on cue, as you walk by, that... Read more ›
