I’m still working my way through The Last of Us Part I. My progress is glacial for one specific reason: Photo Mode.

My personal preference is character close-ups shot in Portrait

A good sports management game shouldn’t just accurately represent the sport on the cover; it also needs to show some personality. It needs to be a storyteller. In any sports organisation – as time, championships, seasons, and people come and go – their story grows and changes, building a folklore and a history that makes
Image: @Kemmo_Ado Remember game magazines? Remember how awesome they were? Yes, a few of them are still knocking about to this day; in the UK, we’ve got the likes of Edge, Wireframe, Retro Gamer, and Switch Player to name but a few, but for those who grew up in the ’80s, ’90s, and ’00s, magazines
PlayStation told players in 2020 that it could add 1440p support for game resolution output to PlayStation 5 “if requested enough.” It seems that happened because it’s now available in a new update. With the launch of today’s new global PS5 system software update, not only is 1440p resolution available for applicable TVs and monitors,
A new PS5 system update is rolling out across all systems, adding support for 1440p resolution, gamelists (folders), and more. Features of the new PS5 patch for September 2022 had been tested in a beta build that was released towards the end of July, but now all owners of Sony’s current-gen system can enjoy them.

We here at CD PROJEKT RED are so excited for the launch of the Edgerunners Update — and with our first-ever anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners coming hot on its heels (September 13th!), we thought this would be the perfect time to share some additional insights about what the two releases have in common. Trust me, it’s
Koei Tecmo and Gust are currently celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Atelier series of video games and have shared a nice new celebratory video which teases the next game in the long-running franchise.

The Pokemon Company is planning to release a fresh Pokemon Scarlet & Violet trailer tomorrow to give fans a further look at Game Freak’s first open world Pokemon adventure. Hopefully it will give those on the fence a comprehensive overview of the open world aspects of the game along with some of the new Pokemon
Audio player loading… The Callisto Protocol will take a leaf out of Alien Isolation’s horror playbook, and use intelligent mutant monsters to deliver non-scripted scares. Speaking to TechRadar Gaming at Gamescom 2022, chief technical officer Mark James says The Callisto Protocol will feature a “variable environment” that will change independently of the player.

Audio player loading… The wait for Meta’s next VR headset is almost over, with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg confirming that it’s arriving in October during an appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience.

Ignore those hateful lyrics (hey, they’re a joke band, it’s fine), drink in those festival vibes, and let
Mario Kart Tour is a rather popular mobile game for Nintendo, so much so that it has generated around $293 million for the company. This is according to Sensor Tower (thanks GI.biz), which reports the figure was generated within three years of launch. It is a rather popular game, and during its first week of

Wild Arena Survivors seems like a new Far Cry mobile game in everything but name, and that’s apparently no coincidence. Reports suggest that this 40-player PvPvE free-to-play game was destined to be stamped with the Far Cry name, but a lukewarm reception ruined its chances. Wild Arena Survivors could have been a Far Cry mobile
2024 seems impossibly far away given the state of the world right now, but with today’s announcement of Lucid, a new Metroid-y Celeste-like from The Matte Black Studio and Apogee Entertainment, at least we’ll have a cool new video game to look forward to when it eventually rolls round. I got a sneaky early peek
We PC gaming folk have built cities in different time periods and weather conditions, on a vast array of worlds and even in VR. I don’t think I’ve ever built one on the back of a giant animal after the apocalypse, though. Indie sci-fi citybuilder The Wandering Village will let me do that when it
