Instruments Of Destruction goes to the trouble of having a voiceover offer a preamble to each of its missions, but I don’t need it. Its launch trailer knows I don’t need it, as its own voiceover makes clear: “Take this vehicle, destroy those buildings. Do I really need to explain why?” Nope! You don’t. And

Homeworld 3 reviewA lavishly presented, detailed, often gripping RTS with most of the atmosphere and tone you’d expect from the series, held back from greatness by playing it too safe, some control issues, and favouring reaction speed over tactical depth. Developer: Blackbird Interactive Publisher: Gearbox Publishing Release: May 13th 2024 On: Windows From: Steam, Epic

Marvel Studios has cast Ralph Ineson as the planet-eating Galactus for The Fantastic Four. PlayStation 5 players might recognize that name as the voice of Cidolfus Telamon, aka Cid, in Final Fantasy XVI. This casting comes from The Hollywood Reporter, which reports that the production will begin shooting mid-summer in England.  Ineson, whom you might also

Earlier this week, Xbox closed four Bethesda studios, including Redfall developer Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks, the team behind last year’s Hi-Fi Rush. While each of the four studios affected, which also included Mighty Doom developer Alpha Dog Games and Bethesda support studio Roundhouse Games, released a statement about the closures, Xbox remained silent.  However,

Dead Cells developer Evil Empire has delayed its upcoming roguelike, The Rogue Prince of Persia, because of Hades II. Originally due out on Tuesday, May 14, in PC Early Access, Evil Empire has delayed the game to later this month to give potential players more time with Hades II, which is another roguelike that hit

Lightforge Games is indefinitely pausing work on its upcoming RPG Project O.R.C.S. The team has been reduced to a skeleton crew as the few remaining staff members look to determine their next course of action. In a message posted to the game’s website and social media channels yesterday, Lightforge cites a lack of publisher funding

Ah, it feels like only yesterday that Microsoft shut down Tango Gameworks, creators of Hi-Fi Rush, and now here’s Matt Booty, head of Xbox Game Studios, telling Microsoft staff at an internal townhall meeting that “we need smaller games that give us prestige and awards” – a sentence we might plausibly lengthen to “…like Hi-Fi

MultiVersus makes its grand return on May 28, and a new trailer reveals that the Joker is joining the roster. Even better, Mark Hamill is voicing the Clown Prince of Crime once more. Though we don’t see gameplay, a cinematic trailer sets up a dramatic confrontation (and likely emotional reunion for fans) between Batman, voiced

A recent update for procgen whodunnit sim Shadows of Doubt added “Sharpshooter Assassins” with high-powered rifles to the game’s glowering alternate-1980s cities, with players having to work out the killer’s vantage point by deducing a bullet’s trajectory, before proceeding to a secondary crime scene to search for a murder weapon and witnesses. The prospect of

Heading Out is a driving game not about finishing first or delivering freight. Instead, you’re on a road trip across America’s highways in which your collisions, detours, and police chases shape your story and the characters you meet along the road. It’s out now.

The success of Marvel Snap rolls on, as does the seasonal structure of the free-to-play, deck-building card-battler from Second Dinner. Recent seasons have been themed after corners of the Marvel Universe, like Avengers vs. X-Men or Thunderbolts, but this season leans a bit more into the Marvel Multiverse with Blink and the Exiles. This season,

I’ve been sampling Hades 2’s early access build on the Steam Deck, and my only complaint – besides the smooching frog having eluded me for hours – is that it’s giving me very little to write about, performance analysis-wise. Honestly, it fits the dinky PC so well you’d have thought Supergiant had decided to make

Hades II now available in Early Access. Yes, for real. Like right now. Why are you still reading this? Go play it, you’ve got some gods to kill/flirt with/buy things from/etc! However, while you’re waiting for it to download on PC, why not check out Game Informer’s slew of exclusive Hades II content available right now because
